Monday Aug 10th 1857
Bell Richardson came to call on me this morning and I went
with her to send a circulur to Charlie Lindsay. Harve directed it for her and I
had a very pleasant talk with him. He was pleased but showed no disposision to
be anything but friendly. I went over to Joseys ? to tea. Sarah Calkins came in
and we had a very pleasant talk. I am friends with All the world now. Although I am not so happy as I was three
or four weeks ago for causes I will not explain here but in after years may I
remember it and learn wisdom from my foolishness. I know it to be foolish but
cannot help it at once. On how few days of our lives can we look with future
satisfaction. On how few without many regrets. I regretted also those few short
hours of love and joy And as I now think of them I would rather exchange those
hours of thrilling extacy for the mere tranquil quite enjoyment of mere
friendship.
