born and here I spent my youth.

After viewing the Mills I went to the house where
I was born and visited each appartment. The house and farm all
looked natural ^Bogue Hill^ not excepted. I called at Mr Henry Woodruff's^ford^
and saw Mrs Woodford. I also called upon Mr Judds Mrs Allens ^Z^
and O Harts. At Roger Woodfords I saw Eldad W. and Lavilla Day.
I visited uncle Titus Woodruff's family and saw Caltha Herd at their
house. I called upon Capt Francis Woodruff Erastus Woodruff and Adna
and C. [&c] ^Woodruff^ who were all glad to see me. I also visited uncle
Ozem Woodruff's family. He was absent. I also saw many other friends.
During the walk I passed the school house in which I spent many of
my youthful days. I gazed upon it and upon the graveyard where
slept many of my progenators and friends. There was reposing also
the remains of my mother. I read the inscription on their toombstones
of several numbered with the dead who were well when I left
Connecticut in 1832. On the toombstone of my mother was
the following inscription:

A pleasing form a generous gentle heart
A good companion just without art
Just in her dealings faithful to her friends
Beloved through life lamented in the end.

My mother Bulah Thompson Woodruff was born in 1782
and died June the 11th 1808 aged 26 years. She was married
to my father Nov 29 1801 and by him had three children—
namely, Azmon born Nov 29th 1802; Ozem Thompson born Dec
22nd 1804; and Wilford born March 1st 1807

My father afterwards married Azubah Hart by whom
he had six children five sons and one daughter, my sister Eunice.

After spending most of the day in visiting the before
mentioned friends I walked from Ozem Woodruff's to Farmington
to again visit my parents who had moved from Colebrook a few
days previous to their former place of residence.

I arrived at my father's house at the setting of
the sun, where I was once more blessed with the happy privilege
of taking again my parents by the hand and of beholding them
face to face after being seperated from them over five years

I was joyfully received and made heartily welcome
I visited the Mills where I had spent several years and passed the night

born and here I spent my youth.
