SAMPLE: JOURNAL ENTRY FROM
PETER THE GREAT
Berlin, October 2, 1712, : Yesterday I arrived here and I went to
see the King. Yesterday morning, he came to me and last night
I went to the Queen. I send you as many oysters as I could
find. I couldn't get any more because they say the plague has
broken out in Hamburg and it is forbidden to bring anything from
there.
