1862 April 10 Chapel Hill, N.C.

[from the diary of Eliza Oswald Hill, refugee from Wilmington, N.C.]

Thursday 10th--It has cleared off beautifully this morning--But too cold
for comfort--We have been up to see Mrs. Tyler and Person--Found them
comfortably fixed in their hired house & Mrs. Person up in
the rocking chair--We left Tom to call on his old friend Mrs.
Ashe--We were astonished to find the ground perfectly dry after
so much rain--Katy is better & out of bed--No news from Wilming
-ton--But a long letter from Georgia--Mary wrote
