Autobiography 1883 Tullidge's Quarterly Magazine Notes 1
On Indipendence day I rode to
Colebrook post office and to visit sister Eunice. At the post
office directed to my father and sister I found two papers
from brother Asahel but no letters. Eunice had joined
a party to sail on the ^Doolittles^ pond. On my return
home I saw them cross the pond in the boat. I raised a
flag in token of friendship and they answered but did not know
me and as they passed my sight behind a grove I bowed
to them in silence and said to myself God save my sister
With brother Hale I took stage to New
Hartford and from thence went to Avon and spent the night at
aunt Helen Wheelers and visited my friends and kinsmen in
the place.
