Diary

Januray 1870

Final entry, as much of the diary, is in Greek

Note before taking the bar exam

Reference to the "Blues"

This is the last entry from William Viers Bouic's (my Great Great Grandfather) law school diary. He wrote in it from 1867-1870. If you look at the original size version it's legible and an interesting read.

I saw this photo on lifehacker, and as a law student in the midst of my first year finals was greatly intrigued. I am also a preacher, and couldn't help but appreciate the deep sense of theology your ancestor wrote from. Thanks for sharing.

Brilliant last line; "strange. how very strange!!" Just what I thought looking at those Greek characters.
