George Washington Papers

[Diary entry: 16 April 1786]

Sunday 16th. Thermometer at 46 in the Morning—64 at Noon and 67 at Night.

A brisk Southerly wind all day and at times much appearances of rain, but none fell.

Mr. Lee went away after breakfast.

Very few fish caught yet at my fishery at the ferry.
