Jervis McEntee Diary Entry, November 23, 1883, from the Jervis McEntee papers, 1850-1905, in the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution

Friday, Nov 23, 1883 Painted all day on my studio and wood house. Girard sent for me at his house. I instantly feared some disaster.

A letter from Eastman Johnson from Nantucket regarding changes in the constitution of the Century.
