19080009072NATCHEZ MISSISSIPPI MI OSCEOLA ARKANSAS AK. Good. 1908. On offer is a super original diary and manuscript relic of a Mississippi man named Volney Fowler consisting of entries for the years 1908 1909 and 1916. Fowler seems to be an Surveyor working with a small company in Natchez Mississippi offering researchers and historians an interesting perspective of life in the Deep South. Throughout the diary and throughout all years of writing Fowler writes of receiving calls from many different people in town to survey various plots of land as well as reports from his boss Forest and a coworker and brother Orrick For example: April 6 1909. While at breakfast at Osceola a phone message came from Foresh for me to return home immediately to survey ____ place for Farrar. So when cars came at Lake Bruen I returned home.I did not wish to leave Osceola on Tuesday and would not have come away if Farrar had not got Mr. Ratcliffe to phone me to come to survey. In between reports of his work in Natchez Fowler writes of day-to-day occurrences and activities such as watching movies he is especially moved by Birth of a Nation by D.W. Griffith vacationing in Osceola Arkansas. As well Fowler is very interested in astrology and the diary is filled with many instances of astrological movements in the sky: Jupiter enters Leo. Mars enters Leo.; Venus enters Gemini; Venus conj. with moon in Cancer. In addition the verso and recto of the cover are filled with Fowlers writing on the stars and astrological movements in the year 1908. Precession of equinoxes has caused vernal equinox to leave Aries and become Pisces.; Mars enters Leo 13 Sept.; Mercury in Taurus Aug. 20th in Cancer.; At the end of 1909 Fowler writes of the long sickness and death of wife: Dr. Chamberlain is treating my wife for Angina Pectoris - which is inflammation of the chest.wife rested Tolerably last night. We think she is a trifle better at Sunrise.Dr. Beekman called 8 1/2 clock A.M. About 9 1/2 clock AM it began to appear that end was a matter of short time. Mrs. Baker came and was helpful and so Mr.s. Stamply. About 12 1/2 Clock Winnie began to show that she knew she was losing her best friend - Ida and children arrived after dark.Mamma his wife died at Eleven clock this night.My wifes funeral took place this evening at 4 clock. Our boys brought a lot yesterday in city cemetery. His entries for the year 1909 end after the death of his wife. The book is about 390 pages of which there is writing in 370 or so. The cover is in fair shape. The front cover is almost wholly detached. The spine and front cover show discoloration tears and signs of wear and age. The pages and writing are still in good shape. Fowlers handwriting is easy to read even when slightly faded or written in pencil. There are only a few entries in 1916 at the very beginning of the diary. They stop after the middle of the month in January. The entries for 1909 end after the death of Fowlers wife while the entries for 1908 continue throughout the year. This diary is a very interesting look into the life of a deep south surveyor living through the ups and downs of life. Excerpts of text: January 21 1908.
