1862 June 10 Chapel Hill, N.C.

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

Tuesday 10th  Still Fall like--I have had a good fire made up in my
room.  The parlour is again filled with young men which makes it
lively for the young ladies--I have received a long letter from
Sarah to day--She is feeling wretched about Fred & Pax--They
have left for Vicksburg to join their Regiment--May God
protect them from their enemies & the hand of those who hate
them--
