Saturday, July 14th, 1860. To day I left Baltimore on the 8 O'Clock train of Cars, and arrived at Philadelphia for dinner, and thence on to New York, at which City I arrived at 6 O'Clk. P.M. and stoped at the National Hotel. my expenses at Baltimore was $1? and at Philadelphia $1. I remained in New York purchasing goods until the 2nd day of August. expenses while in the City $125? weather while in the City was warm & pleasant, with 3 rains during my stay.
Thus closes my notes for the month of December and also for the year just passed and gone and now numbered with the things that were.
