[Hosea Stout Diary] Sund Jan. 30th 1848. North Wind first sleeting & then turned to a driving snow. It had been very pleasant since the Jubilee. But now very cold. It was altogether the coldest & most disagreeable today that we have had this year.
At 2 oclock Elizabeth, wife of my brother Allen died. (of child bed)She had been lingering for some time. She left him with three small children the youngest only a few days old.
