Journal Entry

March 26, 1843 ~ Sunday

March 26th Sunday I spent the day at home
I looked over the Mail that brought our
exchange papers & found them mostly
vary destitute of news of interest except
the case of Mackenzie which is still exciting
the public mind & will probably be the longest
before it is closed of any case ever tried in
the United States in consequence of the hanging
Spencer, Small & another person on board
of the Sommers in consequence of an exp-
ected mutiny. Their is also some wars
& rumours of wars earthquakes & fires &
stormes, & murder throughout the land
