1862 June 5 Fredericksburg, Va.

[from the diary of Dr. Brodie Strachan Herndon]

June 1862
5th  Luc rode with me to Mr
Gayles (10 miles) --the pony performing
famously.  Our dear Jim could not
in any other way have conferred so much
rational employment.  Mother G regaled
us on green peas & strawberries
