Friday, September 25, 1868 – “Thurlow Weed’s health is not improving much abroad.”

This has been a wet day. Wet weather is all the go at present. I was doing chores to day. The Delhi Fair finishes up to day. I supose. I was up to Boyds this afternoon. 1868.

George Francis Train is in an Irish prison for debt, and his daughter drives a stylish team at Newport.* There are more than a hundred houses in Fifth Avenue that rent for $40.000 a year. Thurlow Weed’s health is not improving much abroad.**
