[from the diary of Eliza Oswald Hill, refugee from Wilmington, N.C.]
Saturday 29th Very cloudy again. Only one letter & that from the
gentleman that wants to rent my house--Mrs DeRossett has re
turned from home after buying the house from Mrs Morrow $6000
&500--A letter from Mrs Kennedy saying Elizas box was sent by
express with her bonnet & frock from Charlotte three or 4 days ago but
it has not arrived & Eliza is very much worried--Sarah has just re-
ceived a letter from Fred & one from her Ma--She spends to day out-
A very mean breakfast we had this morning-But better than the poor
soldiers have-
