February 3, 1884, Sunday

at Charleston, SC

Real Spring day.  Went with Sally, Richie, Annie and Sarabelle to Goose Creek Church and then to the Oaks.  A good many of the oaks in the avenue are dead or dying.  Planted too close perhaps.  The avenue cannot be over 200 years old, I suppose, and the oak must be a longer lived tree than that.
