[from the diary of Anne Madison Willis Ambler]
Thursday, July 24, 1862
The first thing this morning Mary Cary was
sent for to go to Dr. S's as cousin Milly
was sick--father came back about ten & announced
the arrival of a fine boy--Bro Charles
left us for home. he looked very sad--
we were all sitting in the passage
sewing when cousin John of Mt B[lanc]
came over to spend the day--I am
still of the opinion that sister B is very
much pleased & thinks that his visits here
intended for her.
I am not very well the wetting yesterday
was not good for me--I feel very badly.
& have been sick at my stomach ever since.
Jacque is much better
