26^th We have A south west Gale to day with
rain yet we cannot run our our course when
we shall ever get to New york the Lord knoweth
but it is vary discourageing times to us it is 5
weeks to day since we left the docks at Liverpool
And we do not seem to be making any head way
but beating against constant gales & stormes
My prayer is that the Lord will spedily cut short
our passage by giving us fair wind

A small Brig passed under our bow within a few
rods of us of about 200 tons in the fore part of
the day And another one in the Afternoon we
had A strong gale through the night And a vary
rough time

February 27, 1846 ~ Friday

27 The Barometer run vary low this morning
All sail was taken in except enough to steady
the ship the gale increased to such an extent
they had to lay to the ship & let her
ride the best she could this like the rest
is a head gale. The wind blew exceding hard
through the day And the night was dark
terrible dreadful & gloomy it blew a Hurricane
nearly all night head wind few marriners
ever experienced a rougher passage across the
Atlantic than we have done thus far many
