[from the diary of Matthella Page Harrison as transcribed at a later date]
Wednesday, August 13th
A pleasant day. Prayer meeting at Cousin Jane's. Cousin Hugh Nelson's death con-
firmed today. What will be our state when it is over? How many loved ones in the
tomb--God only knows. Saw two deserters passed through Millwood this evening. They
told of a fight near Madison Courthouse last Sunday. Took tea at Linden.
