Day in the Life
Journal Entry
February 01, 1846 ~ Sunday
Feb 1st 1846 Sunday I arose quite unwell
this morning being rocked so badly through
the night we have a calm this morning
this is the 10th day since we left Liverpool
And it is supposed we are still in the mouth
of the British Channel opposite Cape Clear
about 300 miles from Liverpool about what
we ought to make in 24 hours with a good
fair breeze this is bad beginning certainly
what the end will be time must determin
I read the latest London times to day but
found nothing important in them It is
still gloomy times with us
