Commenti su una visita a Thomas Picton's home e pettegolezzi con lui circa la sig.ra Kidder e conoscenti di altre. Trascrizione: hanno cercato di mettere lui [Giovanni B. Holmes] fuori suppongo, (per lo fece ?nt per ricostruire qualcosa di molto distintamente) e vi è stato un generale-lotta, tutti il beccheggio in Holmes. Sua moglie [Ada Holmes] è venuto giù di lasciare la finestra aperta e la lampada in prossimità di essa, il vento soffiava tenda e impostare il fuoco. Un allarme di ?ǣfire ? Sollevate a questo & la riga ed una posse di vigili del fuoco bloccato fino alla strada; l'orologio è venuto e dopo più combattimenti in cui Holmes era ferito considerevolmente lo portarono fuori per il municipio

Comments on a visit to Thomas Picton's home and gossip with him about Mrs. Kidder and other acquaintances. Transcription: They tried to put him [John B. Holmes] out I suppose, (for he did ?nt recollect anything very distinctly) and there was a general-fight, all pitching into Holmes. His wife [Ada Holmes] came down leaving window open and lamp near it, wind blew curtain & set it on fire. An alarm of ?ǣfire ? raised at this & the row, and a posse of firemen blocked up the street; the watch came, and after more fighting in which Holmes was bruised considerably they took him off to the City hall cells and locked him up all night.
