The first (and most extensive) is by an unnamed governess who writes of the loss of a child in her care, Harry. Her spidery handwriting is even and accomplished, and her use of \"thee\" and \"thou\" throughout suggests she may have been a Quaker.

It focuses on the many losses she experiences across 1859 and her youthful awakening to the numerous hardships the women around her confront.  From parental loss to poverty to disease to mental health emergencies, the events of Louisa's 13th year were formative, and she turned to her diary as a place for working out private emotions that burdened her.  ","Louisa balances school, friends, and church with an increasing oversight of her home.  More detail is given as the family continues struggling to keep domestic workers, and it is hinted that Mr. Pratt and the members of the church are drawing labor from girls pulled from the sex trade.  Unprepared for the situations they find themselves in, the girls act out, have mental health crises, and ultimately flee which are documented by Louisa.","While grief, loss, and unexpected adulthood shape much of Louisa's year, she also reports the kinds of joys that remind us she is entering her teens.

The manuscript consists of ninety-eight pages of writing, with the rest left blank. The manuscript contains writings by three different women. The first (and most extensive) is by an unnamed governess who writes of the loss of a child in her care, Harry. Her spidery handwriting is even and accomplished, and her use of \"thee\" and \"thou\" throughout suggests she may have been a Quaker. For thirty pages, she expresses her heartfelt love for the child and her grief during Harry's decline. She describes her memories of the boy and his siblings and details the boy's last illness, of about six days' duration, and death.  ","The following forty-eight pages include bereavement verses including poetry, both original and copied from published works, segments of stories, and verses from the bible.  within these pages, the Governess left three pages blank; on the first of these blank pages, \"M.E.G.\" [later identified as Mary E. Grote] wrote about the death of her firstborn son, \"Ernie,\" whose father was Ernest William Davis.

It is a five-page memorial titled \"To Ernie,\" dated August 30th, 1874. It is possible that Grote's earlier one-page passage may have been written in 1874.

Pratt, New Paltz Landing, New York to front endpaper with an early 20th-century hand adding to pastedown and endpaper, \"born 1846\" and \"13 years old.\"  ","The diary contains 366 pages in legible hand. It focuses on the many losses she experiences across 1859 and her youthful awakening to the numerous hardships the women around her confront.  From parental loss to poverty to disease to mental health emergencies, the events of Louisa's 13th year were formative, and she turned to her diary as a place for working out private emotions that burdened her.  ","Louisa balances school, friends, and church with an increasing oversight of her home.  More detail is given as the family continues struggling to keep domestic workers, and it is hinted that Mr. Pratt and the members of the church are drawing labor from girls pulled from the sex trade.  Unprepared for the situations they find themselves in, the girls act out, have mental health crises, and ultimately flee which are documented by Louisa.","While grief, loss, and unexpected adulthood shape much of Louisa's year, she also reports the kinds of joys that remind us she is entering her teens.

He was imprisoned in Washington D.C for more than six weeks, but wrote of his excellent treatment, especially from members of Congress, many who he knew while serving as a member of the House of Representatives from 1851 to 1859. He wrote of an interview with President Andrew Johnson after his release, writing that: \n\"I had a very agreeable interview with President Johnson. He received me most kindly and courteously, and alluded to our former service in Congress, in pleasant terms. He spoke liberally and in the most conciliatory terms of the South, and the Southern people. His manner indicated sincerity and if we meet him in a spirit such as he exhibited, we will have reason to regard him as our best friend. Now that the war is ended, we should exhibit no sullen and dissatisfied spirit, but should encourage harmony and conciliation. We have to live under the same government, and it is the part of wisdom and duty, to seek to restore confidence, and cultivate kindly relations. We must show sincerity, honesty and faithfulness in fulfilling the obligations we have assumed. This is the advice I have given to our people, ever since your surrender.\"\nLetcher goes on to tell Lee of the great respect and kind feelings that officers and others in the North had for him.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIn 1865, shortly after the surrender of the Army of Northern Virginia, Robert E.
