1862 August 9 Chapel Hill, N.C.]

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

Saturday  no letter from Tom I shall be uneasy until I get one--As I hear there
is a great deal of sickness in Virginia--& deaths by the dozen a day--Not
counted those in Hospitals--the morning opens with a prospect of
another very hot day--Dr Mallett better--very little news in the dispatch
Eliza received a letter from Mr Mason
