[[preprinted]] JANUARY, THURSDAY 1. 1874. [[/preprinted]]

Papa came back from New York this morning, befor I was awake. He had been home and found 
the people and the pets well. Birdies tail had grown long and then fallen out. Silver and Duke had 
grown a little. Papa went out with Mr Wheller and the two Mr Herlberts to call. Mama did not go to the parlor to stay but only went down when some one came to see her. 
They had a refreshment table, and had salad and oysters and Biscuits and coffe and chocolate and fruit and lots of other things. Gen Sweet died this morning at six oclock, of Pneumonia, and Miss Ada (supposing him to be alive) came on this evening but finding that he was dead went right back to Chicago, to comfort her mother. 
This evening I am writing up here in our room. I can't help of thinking of poor Miss Ada.
