Feb. 26 - Sunday - Cold, Snowing. Met several citizens of Walker and all are pleasant. Had a call from Mr. Bamana the editor and publisher of the local paper -- who assures me of his friendship and support. It seems that Mr. Ifan's friends rather resent my appointment as Agent and that he unclear expected it -- From this source, I am told, the ministers affection comes.
