Tuesday, January 31st, 1865
To day James Roberts left for camp. Mr. Cameron from Jasper County came to see Fanny. it appears that he has possession of Fanny's brother, and in my judgment is a very shabby fellow. The boys done nothing in consequence of the rain. It rained all day and all night. The weather was very cold. Thus I close my notes for the month of January.
