January, Monday, 19.1863.

Still on the boat, but expect to leave to morrow morning. Attended theatre & heard "Leeper G Day" pretty well played. Came very near being arrested for being out after hours contrary to city orders. Sat up until late talking - as the day has been stormy & unpleasant. Paid Freid? Crawford what I owed him. Wrote to Mrs. Wickersham.

Morning still here & will be some time yet delayed. It does seem impossible to get away. Started past afternoon going some 30 or 40 miles & laid up for the night. Very pleasant on the boat. X 1— X
