[from the diary of Anne Madison Willis Ambler]
Friday, July 25, 1862
Though I still felt sick I thought that I would
walk with Fannie as it might be
beneficial to me--but the sun made me
violently sick at my stomach--I laid down
& have not been able to eat, or sit up
since--read the Beckhams all day - I must say
that it is interesting but it seems to me
that it is a book which will make much
more mischief in the world that[sic]
it will do good...
I took a blue pill,--slept very well
