[from the diary of Eliza Owald Hill, refugee from Wilmington, N.C.]
Sunday 6th. Went to the Episcopal church in the morning &
communed. The Church was very full--The refugees taking up
nearly every seat--At night I went to the Presbyterian
Church--& found that full--The village is crowded with
strangers--Mr. Rensher went to Church with Eliza last night.
The night was beautiful, as clear as day--The Moon shone beauti-
fully.
