1862 September 10 Fauquier County, Va.

[from the diary of Anne Madison Willis Ambler]

Wednesday, September 10, 1862

You & I with the children took a walk
but you were silent & thoughtful &
I did not enjoy my walk---

The Yankees still hold the Ferry,
though our forces are in Md & we
are expecting an attack on the Ferry
any day---

MSS 15406
