"_February 18_.--Rose at 6 o'clock. Took cards to woodman. Went to
post-office and got two letters, one from Wallazz and another from
mother. Heard that Smith was up and would probably not go down. Tried
to hunt him up. Ran around after him a great deal. Saw him; made an
appointment, but he did not come. Finally met him about 4. He said
that he had written up for a man, who had first choice; but he would do
all he could. I was much disappointed. Went back to office; then
after Knowlton, but got no money. Then went to _Alta_ office. Smith
there. Stood talking till they went to work. Then to job office. Ike
had got four bits [50 cents] from Dr. Josselyn. Went home, and he came
out to supper.
