1866 Wednesday February 14 The wind has blown apace the entire day + the snow which fell yesterday is tonight in heaps. It has been very cold. Had but two meals to day because to stormy to go [further?] - I have read some + made an examination of the Record of Deeds in the matter of [mine spanish Horworth] etc. - Sherman + Wm both went to see their ducks to night leaving me alone in the office. No train or mail through the day - Have felt lonely and had the blues all day - Sometines think of Dixie and wish myself back again
