woman, recently arrived from the
north. Good by to Freeman &
Faircloth. The latter on friendly
terms with Edge, despite the loan.
�I make him help me on some let-
ters I�m writing to Wilkes� Spirit,�
said Freeman, who, I found, had
offered to give Edge money to pay
for his hotel board. At the end
of the pier � land, or rather sand end
� called on Gen Terry and had a
talk with him for twenty minutes
or so. Then out. Presently met
Charley Honeywell on the steps of
the quartermaster�s office. Asked him
to ale at the hotel. Thence down
to pier together. Met Gen Hunter
escorting a lady (sister to Terry) Hal-
pine, now Colonel, squiring another,
and behind them Captains Hay
and Thompson, resplendent in their
blue uniforms and brass buttons.
