- 23:13:06 They linked to PDF of whole handwritten diary http://t.co/zLDxAs1mKO but quote is from Chapter 6, transcribed here: http://t.co/NFKXxGupZf
- 23:16:59 The ancestor who was quoted is specifically my mother’s mother’s father’s father Hiram Harvey Hurlburt Jr http://t.co/3AKkRTeB7s (1827-1910)
- 23:19:50 I’ve only read the first 13 of 60 chapters in the diary. This makes me want to read the rest. I’ve heard he had some interesting adventures.

- 23:22:11 I’d already passed over the headline & not read the article! (And of course the article is interesting on its own even without my ancestor.)
- 23:29:25 (It is actually more of a memoir than a diary though, despite how it is titled in the PDF. It was written late in his life I gather.)
