[from the diary of Mary S. Boydon of "Hopedale," Abemarle County, Va.]
Wednesday 20 Letter from Staunton saying that Ma
will come on Saturday next. Note from poor
Mrs Watkins asking father to come down tomorrow
& bury her little daughter Florence who died from
the effects of measles. So much distress & grief in
the world!
