25 March: Overcast in the morning. Wind southeast. At seven thirty, 15°F [−9.4°C], afterward snow the whole day until five o’clock in the evening. At noon, 27°F [−2.8°C], wind southeast. Mató-Tópe was in our room. Dougherty visited us as well. Afterward, I began to treat my foot with moist heat and sage, which made it worse. The news about the Dacota lodge needs to be corrected—one person is supposed to have been murdered. In the afternoon at four o’clock, wind north. In the evening, clear and cold.
