I went to the Office where my time was divided between accounts, paying bills and sending away packets of my Pamphlet. I directed several today to Members of the Legislature for the purpose of informing them of the subject they are to discuss. I inquired of the publisher today if they sold, and he answered affirmatively although he could not define the extent.

Home to read Herodotus. Afternoon as usual. Symptoms of an approaching head ach. Evening, at home, reading Lockhart to my Wife. After, I wished to go on with my work but found myself soon growing disabled.
