Fine Spring weather. Went to the depot for my papers. Sold 13. World & Journal didn’t come. Rec. a little job for a college girl. Ordered 100 apple and other fruit trees from G.C. Stone, Danville, NY. Bought Meat for to morrow and monday. Paid 2.50 to the Gazette as partly pay for ads. Mrs. Warnack again presented me with a dish of boiled ham and murphys. Must pay her back some of this days. I wish Martha was back. Think of her at all the time. War wont go ahead. The fellows in Washington are regular fools, need military education the worst. The poor soldiers got to suffer. They dont know what to do.
