‎Diary Michener Philip Fie‎

‎Manuscript Diary of a Carpenter from Duncannon Perry County Pennsylvania including a trip to Sioux City Iowa and Nebraska Territory 1865‎

‎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 books‎
