[Hosea Stout Diary] Thursday Nov. 5th 1846. Cut and drew house logs today & got very wet & cold coming home.
About one hour after dark the Marshall came here after me to go and help take care of a man named Beers who had kicked his wife out of the tent and was in the habit of abusing his family and also wanted to drag them away against their will
We went & finding he had gone to bed we let the matter rest where it was till morning[.] His wife going to Br Rogers to stay as she darst not go home.
