description |
This bound volume contains two diaries. The first is James Gibson's diary, Feb.-Oct. 1786 [Leander], and the second is John Fishbourne Mifflin's diary, Nov. 1786-April 1787 [Lorenzo]. Gibson, a student at Princeton University, describes his college life. Mifflin, a Philadelphia lawyer, describes his daily life and activities in detail in his diary. These young men met at a lecture about electricity in 1785. They became friends and sent their journals to each other upon completion.<br /> <br /> This digital record contains images that depict selected pages from both diaries. Currently only pages 212-215 from Gibson's diary, and pages 34-35, 50-51, and 78-80 from Mifflin's have been imaged.<br />   |
