[from the diary of William M. Blackford, former diplomat and bank officer, Lynchburg, Va., with five sons in the Confederate Army]
Sunday 25. Rose in apparent health,
but was soon attacked by an affliction
of the bowels and violent indigestion
I have rarely suffered more than I
did all day. I was quite uneasy
at one time--After night I had some
thing of cholera morbus--Charles
& Sue called in the afternoon. He
does not regain his strength rapidly.
