130 years ago today - Feb 23, 1884; Saturday

[Anthony Ivins Journal] This morning while at breakfast the postman brought in a letter from my wife. I was surprised and grieved beyon[d] measure upon opening it to read of the death of my sister Caddie [Caroline] which took place on the 3 2nd of this month. Did not give any lessons today.
