 Notes
  June 19 Her wedding day!
  Have been too busy to write for some time. Love and I were married today at 4 P.M. Mr. Collin and wife were present besides Love's family and Lena Spring. After the ceremony some of the neighbors came in to see me and then Love and I went to our house Jack and Minnie came with a surrey [a horse and buggy] and we went out for a drive.
In the evening some young people came into no see were we really married. Am so tired tonight I cannot see. Sent a letter to Katie Eldock. She sent me a gift Friday.
