Jervis McEntee Diary Entry, September 10, 1885, from the Jervis McEntee papers, 1850-1905, in the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution

Thursday, Sept 10, 1885 Cool and cloudy. Spent the forenoon making 12 bottles of cherry bounce. After dinner we rode, my father, Sara, Mary and I, though Kingston out on Lucas' Turnpike, crossing over to the Greenkill road. The skies were fine and the view from the high ground over across Hussey Hill was very effective under a noble effect of sky. The Autumnal tints begin to show perceptibly.
