Description
There are no diary entries until January 27, beginning with Chess noting that a doctor advised him “to make a trip south as soon as possible.” Chess records his farm work, gardening, the tasks of hired workers, the names of people he visits or who visit him, payments he receives or makes—including wages paid to workers and rent from tenants--and various goods he buys. He also records the activities of Amanda and his children, where they have visited or who they have met and their church attendance. There are directions for treatments for carbuncles and diphtheria written in the back.
