Saturday, January 4, 1868 - "I was drawing wood."

It has been Stormy to day.  I have been drawing wood to day. One year ago to day I was drawing wood.
D. Black took Alice Russell home to day.  Ann went along with them.
D. Coulters* folks stoped here to day.
One year ago to night there was Singing School in Brushland.

P.T. Barnum is out as a lecturer.  What will be his next move?  The population of Spain is sixteen millions.  Yet Spain is scarcely heard of now-a-days. Vesuvius is pouring out lava and pitching up big stones 1.000 feet into the air.  Italy.  1868.

*Probably his uncle David Coulter (1813-1877)
