1862 July 22 Chapel Hill, N.C.

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

Tuesday 22d--We are all so much pleased to get Liz back again.  Mrs Phillips has
called to see her.  It is cloudy today--No letters or papers have come--But
we are looking anxiously for Sarah & Mrs Walters--Liz brought up my
trunk of silver- & told me all about home--So much gained by her trip to
Wilmington.  Mr Parker left to night--Eliza & Liz went up after tea to see
Mrs Person she is quite sick--Cousin Sally London left this morning for
Raleigh to stay with Alice--Christian Campbell called in a few minutes
after Church--Mr McRae & Mr Marshall came to see Sudie & Mollie
