Entering the dark vale at Mt McGregor Grant's decline
An eyewitness diary from Saratoga Springs details Gen. Ulysses S. Grant's appearance and dwindling strength as he endures illness on Mt McGregor. The writer describes the cottage scene, Grant's careful dignity, and the family's calm, while noting the physician's efforts, daily activities, and the looming end with grave solemnity.
