The Diary Journals

This will be a real series of excerpts for civil war diaires fron Jan 1, 1864...mixed with my diary journals from 1967-NOW... there will be no censoring, so tender minds may wish to avoid..... The first entry is from Jan 1st, 1864; A driving rain storm, and this is the first day of a New Year. I am all alone, and have felt very lonesome all day, and hope today is not a sample of the coming or future years. I was so hoping Jerrie---would come out tonight, but the last train came and so perished my hopes of his coming tonight. _______________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________
