May 12, 1865 pg 4

Think I will set up a boarding
house on my own hook.

Add and Flo are to be made
one the fifteenth of next month.
They will travel about three months
and seem very happy at the prospect.

Nellie Denison commits matrimony
sometime this month, and Kate D --
is expecting her "lawyer" home very soon.

Ella Tucker is also making ready
for the hymenical noose, and "they
say" Hen Greely has shown some symptoms.
However she has moved to Mass, so
we shall lose the opportunity of watching
the progress of the disease.

Brother Gilbert who tells pretty little
stories in his sermons has resigned
and will leave here quite soon.

Mr Leonard our school teacher has
left, so there are two vacant places,
and I hope some nice young
men may feel the spirit move
them to take up their residence here.
