Browsing: Diary of Charles Francis Adams, Volume 2

It was cold and I had no object to rise early. Morning at the Office {p. 251} where I accomplished a great deal of Kent. Did not go to see Abby and she went out of town. Thought much upon the subject without any profitable result. Afternoon, some Executive Record, and a Walk. Evening, commenced Cicero’s Oration for Roscius of Ameria, with which I was much pleased, and read two of Mr. Clay’s Speeches.
