Diary of Orville Hickman Browning, Wednesday, July 25, 1860

Quincy. Went to bed last night immediately after leaving Chicago and got up at Galesburg at 5 this morning. Rained considerably through the night, but found it had not extended much this side of Galesburg. Breakfasted at Galesburg and reached home at 9½ A. M. Exceedingly dry here and very warm. Mrs Kennedy of St. Louis, and her two children at my house.
