- Joshua Judson Davis Diaries
- Description
- Davis's romantic interest in Maggie White is recorded throughout the diary. His notes on the interaction between them reveal details about courtship in the late nineteenth century. A series of entries (August, 1890) record an "infamous lie" that an acquaintance had told on Miss White, Davis's vindictive attitude toward the perpetrator of the story (August, 1890), and the settling of the matter by an out-of-court "trial."
