Abstract:

This Cape Hatteras’ journal edition provided by the Sea Chest staff, covering September 1876, offered a surface impression of days not worth writing home about. Details consisted of barometric pressure, rainfall amounts, telegraph lines repairs, and mild illnesses among the staff. Of historical note, though, may be the photocopied image of September 17th’s handwritten entry.
