afternoon. The scholars presented Mr. Potter with a book at the close of the exercises. I was very tired tonight. Went to hear the Hutchinsons sing tonight. They had a large audience and gave entire satisfaction. They sang the poem by John P. Whittier which they were prohibited singing on the Potomac.
Friday 25th
Miss Crocker & I went up to the Third Ward School today. Met Mr. Allen who accompanied us. Went to Mrs. Wises's to dinner. Spent the day in the school and came home at night tired enough.
Saturday 26th
Went to Teacher's meeting this morning. Drew my quarter's salary, paid my debts, spent most all my money. Went to see Hannah Chapman and afterward to Mrs. Olueg's. I had not been to see Nettie since she died, she looked very peaceful and happy, the pain had all gone out of her face. She has suffered so long, that I was glad to see her at rest at last. The funeral is to be on Sunday. Went up town again in the afternoon. Fannie & I and Mr. Craig went over to picnic point. Mr. C. was sick, and we coaxed him to let us row, which he did all the way there and back. We took luncheon with and staid until nearly dark.
Sunday 27th
Warm this morning. Did not go to church. Went to the funeral this afternoon. There were a large number of people present. We went out to the cemetery.
