12mo 361 pages of manuscript entries plus 16 pages of memoranda and cash accounts at rear pocket diary bound in original dark blue leather wallet style binding some minor wear to binding few old tape repairs to wallet flap entries in a good clear legible hand. The entries are dated January 1st through December 31st 1865. Accompanied by mid-twentieth century typescript transcription compiled by a Michener family descendant. Manuscript diary of Philip Fie Michener a carpenter and resident of Duncannon Pennsylvania. Michener was born July 30 1821 and died July 22 1889. The entries record the daily activities of Michener the work he was engaged in news of the Civil War the death of Abraham Lincoln and his experiences on a trip west across Iowa to Sioux City Iowa and into Nebraska Territory looking at various properties with a view to purchasing a homestead in that Territory. Michener was a correspondent of Rev. Samuel Aughey 1832-1912 a Lutheran minister and natural scientist and former Pennsylvanian and who had been in Nebraska since 1864 who acting in the role of promoter and booster seems to have induced a number of residents of Duncannon to Dakota Nebraska Territory to seek homesteads. Aughey was appointed in 1871 by the regents of the University of Nebraska to a chair of natural history at the new university. The only scientist on a faculty of five Aughey acquired the title of “Honorary State Geologist.” He was possibly the best known member of the university faculty during the 1870’s Aughey became a well-known Nebraska booster. He promoted the richness of the state’s soils the idea of increasing precipitation by cultivating more acres and the prospects for coal fuel in that state with few trees. Sample Quotations: Sunday January 1 1865. “Sunday the weather fine and clear at Sunday School at 1 o’clock. School opened by P. F. Michener Sup’t and closed by Father Sylvanus Green with a few appropriate remarks we did get the news of the death of M. B. P. Stewart who was seriously wounded and died from the effects on the 27th of November 1864.” Monday January 2 1865. “… received from A. G. White twelve dollars for making sleigh and one dollar & half from A. Miller for repairing sausage cutter John McLain is very sick and he is at John Jones no person is allowed to go into see him save the family …” Monday January 9 1865. “This morning the coldest this winter. This evening somewhat warmer… Received a letter from Rev. Samuel Aughey from Dakota Nebraska Territory he gives much information about the country…” Wednesday January 25 1865. “This morning clear and very cold and has been all day and this is going to be a very cold night. The boys have a fine time sliding down the hills on their sleds. I was told today that the Smithsonian Institute at Washington has been partly destroyed by fire very lately which did contain many things that can never be replaced Such as paintings and so forth which is a great loss to the country.” Wednesday February 1 1865. “This morning cloudy and not so cold as it has been the sleighing is first rate yet. 18 years today since I did commence business. Chickens are crowing and it is but 9 o’clock. This evening is cloudy. I did today send my application with some certificates and a partition to Provost Marshall General for to try and get back my commutation and also a letter to the Hon. Jas. Bailey member of congress. Slavery is forever done with in the United States.” Wednesday February 22 1865. “This morning clear and pretty cold about 9 o’clock … There is a ball up at Bloomfield. I think it would be better for them here and hereafter if they would turn it into a prayer meeting and ask God to have mercy on their souls. Received the Governor’s message from Nebraska Territory I suppose sent by Bro. Aughey. Some very good things in it.”write for fuller description unknown

The pages for January 7th through January 10th have bottom of page clipped with loss of last 4 lines of each page otherwise good. Page total includes 14 pages of memorandum notes cash accounts etc. at rear. Isaac Newton Snyder was born on April 7 1856. He was the youngest of the seven children of Simon Ely Snyder 1804-1890 of Lee County Virginia and his wife Sarah Witt 1808-1879. Isaac married Maria Antoinette Martin 1854-1902 in 1884. Together Isaac and his wife had at least eight children four of whom were still living in 1900: John G. Isaac N. Jr. Simon E. and Ross E. The Census record Isaac's occupation as a farmer living at Brownsville Union County Indiana. Isaac died on September 19th 1920 and was buried at the West Point Cemetery at Liberty Union County Indiana. His wife Marie predeceased him on 10 June 1902. While the census records record Isaac as a farmer he studied at Miami University Ohio graduating with a B.S. in 1871 and an A.M. in 1886. Isaac had an interest in astronomy and wrote a popular science book called Looking Skyward and the Earth published in 1911. The diary plan is one day per page. Isaac kept this diary when he was attending Miami University in 1869. There are 262 days of handwritten entries. Our writer does a good job of filling up the page when he does write. His entries are steady one for each day from January 1st through June 27th at which point he breaks for the summer and returns home. There are a few entries while at home but mainly they recommence upon his return to school in the fall. However during this time he came down with a terrible infection in his ear and almost lost his hearing. During his illness he did not keep his diary.The author's entries show his love for the subject of astronomy which he writes about a number of times:“January 27th It was a fine day in some respects but not a very fair sky. Tonight I have just been looking at an eclipse of the moon which took place between seven and nine o’clock tonight. About five and a half digits of the moons phase was obscured. Some flying clouds were in the way for while but I made some very fine observations on it through my young telescope. I made quite a discovery by seeing the mountains and valleys on the moons rise though my telescope so small as it is. It certainly is a magnificent scene to behold such an astronomical phenomena. This is the second eclipse of the moon that I have had the good fortune to witness. No more will be visible in this country this year. I also made an observation on Jupiter but without any success. It is now ten o’clock and I have not been getting my Greek. I must retire and rise early and get to work.” “August 7th The day was very clear scarcely a cloud being visible. An east wind blew most of the day. Air very cool. This was the great eclipse day. The sun was eclipsed in the afternoon beginning at 4.25 ½ and ending at 6.23 ½ lasting 1.58 one hour and fifty eight minutes. The eclipse was very near total here looking somewhat like this only a small rim of the north east side being visible. Venus came out in full splendor and the sky became dark. The chickens went to roost. The appearance was as if night was approaching. But the aspect was soon changed to the reverse and daylight came again. In the southern part of this state the eclipse was total. This is the largest eclipse of the kind that can be seen in the U.S. this century. The air was perfectly clear during the whole time.” The diary entries reveal that Isaac was a Southern sympathizer and was possessed of many of the derogatory racial attitudes and notions of his day:write for fuller description unknown
