August 10, 1851 - I tell you we had good times


Sunday 10th (August)

Arose quite early prepared myself for church, but still felt very sad, went to the Presbyterian, and heard a tolerable good discourse. Came home ate dinner after which Julia went to Sunday school and left John and I home alone, and I tell you we had good times. John went to a funeral in the afternoon and in the evening Mr ? came over and joked a while with us, after which John and I sat up a while and then retired.
 
So much for our assumptions that young ladies should always be chaperoned!
