1862 October 22 Chapel Hill, N.C.

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

Wednesday 11  I have been alone most of the day--So I wrote Charles a long
letter in answer to one I received--My face is still very painful &
my tooth still aches a little so I have kept in my room all day--
Sarah is very kind & attentive does all she can to relieve me & I love
her very much--She & her mother have been out returning visits
The weather is still bright cool & clear--But Oh how our Wilmington
people are suffering--No news from there to day--
