Jervis McEntee Diary Entry, March 23, 1888, from the Jervis McEntee papers, 1850-1905, in the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution
Friday, Mar 23, 1888 Cold as winter again. I went down to Rogers, Peet & Co and bought an overcoat, two pairs of pantaloons, three summer coats and two vests and a pair of shoes for a little over $54. A Mr. Stevens called to get a picture for a collection at the Hardman piano store. He is going to start an art paper and get a subscription out of me. I can predict the result of his efforts. It always makes me smile when anyone wants to start an art paper. The wind has blown a gale all day and it is like winter. Spent the evening at Marys and came to my room about 10.30. Mr & Mrs. Fullerton (nee Mollie Pierce) called at Marys.
