Describes a visit to the Bennett family at Chacombe. Transcription: she [Susan Gregory] taking it literally had promised to redeem her character by the proposed feat. Now [George] Gardiner is a good tempered lawyer ?s clerk with little prospect of becoming otherwise, had been jilted and professes the marriage hater. Rosa [Bolton] & Sarah Ann [Bolton], George [Bolton] and I abetted.

Hannah [Bennett] had knit me a pair of mits, like to those which of late, they and the village folk have been doing for the soldiers in the Crimea, but superior in quality. There was a fire lit in the special parlor, and there we all sat, and were very happy, laughing and talking as of old. And there were precious half hours in which Hannah and I sate alone, Title: Thomas Butler Gunn Diaries:
