Journal Entry
February 07, 1846 ~ Saturday
7th Saturday I was sea sick this morning
And vomited some we have still head wind
And make but slow progress which is vary
discourageing to us considering our situation
As our business requires haste but we would
console ourselves the best we could each one
would tell what he would do when he got
on shore we first would take a dish of oysters
together I would take A keg of oysters &
some clams And A fresh codfish to My father
& Mother from New Haven (I must see that
I do it) each one was to take there friends
sumthing so we would occasionally feed
upon these reflections. One man A steerage
passenger got several buckets of water flung
onto him & the ropes end for his filthiness
about the floor The man thate broke his
choler bone is getting better
