Thursday Jan 26th [1865]

Very cold --
Walked down to Rees's Daguere^'r'ean
Galery sat for my photograph
Called on Mrs. James but did not
find her at home -- Paid my
first visit to Mrs Mitchel & Mrs
Dr. Harrison -- Mrs M. was quite sick
Called on Mrs Davis she was out
as usual -- Sent Margarette to
Hills with my hat -- will not be able
to get it until next Friday a week.

Charles R. Rees had a photographic gallery at 145 Main Street. Noted for photographs of Belle Isle and Libby Prison. www.mdgorman.com Civil War Richmond website
