[Sunday] Jan 1st, 1865

Among the great resolutions formed
to-day for the "New Year" is one to
keep a "daily account of events".
Thinking it may prove useful, pleasant
& improving, I hope I may find myself
possessed of sufficient perseverance for
the task -- (doubtful)
This time last week our little Millie
was very ill -- commenced Christmas eve!
to spit blood & continued to do so for three
days & nights -- but to-day she is bright &
apparently quite well, but confined
to bed for fear of a relapse.
Tuesday last ^'Dec 27th' Sister & Temple came up
to spend the remainder of the holidays
Thursday eve' Maj. Page took tea with
us -- Yesterday (Saturday) it snowed
nearly all day -- this morning it is
clear but very cold -- & the walking such
as to prevent our attending Church.
