him only, she never can love another
his cheek is pale. the lover places
one kiss on the girls now unwilling lip.
One heart broken sob escapes him. As
he turns to leave her, he dares not trust
himself with another look
Soon he is gone from her sight, from
Jessie who had concealed her feelings
from the last now seeks her room & the
tears which had not before been shed
now come down in torrents. She was
alone bewildered sad. She could not
realise the full amount of her mercy
it seemed like a dream Albert parting
on his way, as fast as he could tries
[to keep close? scored through] as if to outrun his
thoughts he goes to the Railway
Station. Kind friends, press his hands
on all sides, the hour arrives & he is
gone from the midst of them all.
The voyage out is a prosperous one
the first going Albert has made

Transcription Conventions

Spelling: Maintain original spelling (including u/v, i/j, and ff). Long "s" should be replaced with a regular "s". Terminal long "i" characters are transcribed as "i" not "j".
Hyphenation: Preserve hyphens (including "=" characters) at the ends of lines.
Capitalization: Maintain original
Punctuation: Add modern periods, but don't add punctuation like commas and apostrophes.
Deletions: Deleted characters and words are tagged with "strike" and then displayed with the line through them.
Symbols: For apothecary and alchemical symbols, use these symbols followed by the meaning of the symbol in brackets: Rx [recipe]; ℈ [scruple]; ʒ [dram]; ʒs [half dram]; ℥ [ounce]; ℥s [half ounce]; ℔ [pound].
For roman numerals following symbols that indicate amount, i.e., j=1, ij=2, iij= 3, v=5, type arabic numeral in brackets following roman numeral: i [1], ii [2], iii [3], v [5].
Line Breaks: Hit return once after each line ends. Two returns indicate a new paragraph, which is usually indentation following the preceding sentence in the original. The times at the end of each entry should get their own paragraph, since the software does not support indentation in the transcriptions.
Illegible text: Indicate illegible readings in single square brackets: [Dr?]
A single newline indicates a line-break in the original document, and will not appear as a break in the text in some views or exports. Two newlines indicate a paragraph, and will appear as a paragraph break in all views.
