Wednesday, May 16th, 1866
To day I am at work at the warehouse. The Steamer Royal Arch left for Galveston. Capt. John W. Redmond is still here and engaged in painting the second coat of paint on the house. Hicks is engaged hauling wood. Jimmy [James Wrigley Hall] & I are still suffering with the itch. Weather variable & cool.
