Diary of Sarah Morgan: June 17, 1863

I must write something somewhere, I don't care if dinner is ready, and Brother's “safe old Secesh” downstairs! Lydia has another boy! Letter has just come, and I am demented about my new godchild! There now! feel better!

One more word — it shall be called “Howell.” Dear, blessed little baby! how I shall love it!
