Jervis McEntee Diary Entry, September 1, 1883, from the Jervis McEntee papers, 1850-1905, in the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution

Saturday, Sept 1, 1883 My boil or carbuncle, I can hardly tell which it is begins to inconvenience me, and I have done very little. Have begun a letter to Booth. The weather is dry and melancholy to me. Nothing so dispiriting as a drought. The summer is gone. I am appalled when I stop to think how time flies and saddened to reflect how little I accomplish.
