Friday Jan. 16th. Snowed some. Mr Wilde, Mr Stearns,
George and Kate Hudson called in this afternoon.
George carried off a ring of mine. [Hatty?Natty?] brought some
letters to me from Joseph W_ written by Samuel.
They were very good, but announced that by the
advice of his friends he had concluded to give up
study and return to his business. I was rather
surprised, but concluded that Sam had a right to
do as he pleased, and it will make no difference
to me. He wrote rather despondingly, said he did
not wish to give up studying, but that he did so
by the advice of his uncle whom he has great
confidence. Joseph W_ spent the evening with us.
Saturday. Cloudy but not so cold. Soon after dinner Sarah and
I called at Annie Culbert's. She was not home but
we were pleasantly entertained by Elizabeth. After
leaving there we went into Fourth st where we met
Culbert and all stopped awhile at the Equestrian
Institute
. After that Sarah and I called on Mary [illegible?]
and made an engagement to go with her to the Baptist Church
tomorrow. We then set out for Kate's. Met George Hudson on the
way and he went with us. Kate Hudson persuaded us much
against any inclination to go up into Henry's room.
Mr Murphy disapproved so much of our doing so before
that I though it must be really improper. I found
Henry sitting up in a chair, though still very feeble.

[written in the left margin parallel to main text:]
Sarah received a letter from her mother
requesting her to come home immediately
as they have decided to move out west in
April and there is much to do before.
