Jervis McEntee Diary Entry, March 15, 1883, from the Jervis McEntee papers, 1850-1905, in the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution

Thursday, Mar 15, 1883 Worked on Fullers picture which he bought at Auction for $140. It is one I painted in 1872 and sold to a Mr. Wood for $400. Wrote to him I had finished his other picture and asked him to come and see it. It has been so warm and pleasant that I have not needed a fire in my room but when I went to dinner it was growing cold. Calvert, Julia, Marion and I went to the Goddards to some private theatricals. Met Mrs. Stone, Mrs Youmans who had broken her arm and many others.
