165 years ago today - Dec 25, 1851

[Hosea Stout]
Wife & I went to a dinner & quilting at Allen Stouts. I then went up in town to see the opperations of Chrismas which was carried very largely by the boys serenading in the streets to the great annoyance of the police whose duty it was to keep the peace

Balls & parties of Different kinds were going on almost throughout the Valley and seems to be enjoying the times exceeding well
