January 1, 1860, Augusta, Georgia - Part II

Didn't get up till next evening, and then to be on the couch in her room. As she gave the next entertainment, I used my room for a drawing room. Wm was down. She had Alice Cogg and L. Wolf and Mrs. Lumb where I was one evening. Mr. Cook and Tucker attended all. Mr. and Mrs. Potter gave one, and Mr. Wheelock and others. And none cured my cold with all the Champaign, egg nog, wine cake, candy apples, grapes, etc. I ought not to come up today. It is as much as I can do to write, I feel so bad -- a severe cold and sore throat.



Agnes and Mag send their respects. With much regard,
