Last night when Mary came home she said
I must go to see Jessie—today I went. She was in great ex
citement, full of chat, after she was made to know
me—I saw the Doctor—he said she was in a low fever
I asked if she had had a vomit—to clean her stomach, but
got angry and said, he would not be cross questioned &c and I
might take her under my own care.—he was surly—I left him—
told the nun to give her some yarrow tea a night—
got home by 6 John James and Mary were down too
