Have sent[?] all the children in long wollen [sic] stockings -
their father prefers it, though I am not sure
they require them for the house- However they
have a comfortable look & neater I think than
their white socks which scarcely kept clean
a day. We have been to hear Spurgeon, an
"elect" sermon with which I was not at
all pleased - the hall was packed in every
part as full as it could hold-
Monday March 12th. A long call from Mrs
Hornthauer yesterday afternoon - dined
at Sterons's with a Mrs Hamilton - ugliest
mouth I ever saw but intelligent - head -
the upper face projected like a roof over
the lower & was skewed to a a deformity. We had
a good dinner, quite American - corn
& tomatoes, hickory nuts & other home-
like dishes. I had a good satisfactory talk
with Mrs S about matters at W- Mrs Myers
told her some lies about me I am sure
but she has a great contempt for the
trite woman as I have and sees through
her entirely. Letters from Home Nurses &
husband have both been sick
