Entry 85

Volume 1 · printed page 35 · New York City

This woman lived on the same street I lived on. Her husband was sick and dying, and he told her, he said, "When I cross Jordan River I am going to let you know." And she asked him how she was to know. And he said his whole frame was going to shake when he was crossing. And when he died, he was dead about one-half hour, and just shook so hard until the bed shook with him. [New York City, (1), by hand; about i910 in Wilmington, N. Car.]
