To day has ben a red
letter day in my life vis a visite
to the Birthplace of my fathers in Conneticut, a brief description of which
I will try and relate, for while it
is now past midnight, yet buisy fancy
plays upon my mind & sleep will not
come to me. On returng last night
I determined to set apart to day for
this promised visite and accordingly
left a 3:30 call with the night clerk. pPromptly at that hour there came
a thump at my door, that would
have roused a heavier sleeper than
myself. Arrising I dressed hastiely &
after aranging a few nescessaries in
a hand grip I madye myway down stairs
over
