Presidential appointments and a case of cannibal lore
The president made multiple appointments including Leander Bryan as marshal for the middle district of Alabama and James Loftwitch as receiver of public moneys in Montgomery. Other entries name consuls in Constantinople and the Azores, a New York customs surveyor, and a land office register in Montgomery. A sailor aboard the Gaia claims he was eaten and chained, with conflicting hospital notes on his sanity. Nearby, Leavenworth reports the shooting death of Samuel Darrah, and Colorado's John Gordon defends free silver in a letter. The Duchess of Marlborough reportedly gave birth to a son at Spencer House, while Flora MacDonald Shearer is sent to a private sanitarium for treatment.
