The Key West Citizen, Today in History, April 21, 2017

1856: William Hackley recorded in his diary: Rose at 4:20 and walked to the salt ponds, returned home and bathed. At 8 A.M. barometer 29.37, wind north by west 4, clouds 5. All night blew a fresh breeze from the northwest by west to north northwest. Could not sleep in the piazza last night the wind made the curtains flaps so much slept with Matilda and babe and was awakened frequently during the night. The steamer Isabel got in about 5 P.M. Got my quarterly salary. Matilda got a letter from Penn. News came that Julius Tift died in New York City on the 18th of this month. When the news was given to his wife she screamed for hours and it was not until near 11 that she was so much calmed that Matilda could leave her. She is left without anything.

Marriage records in Monroe county show that Julius Tift was married to Catherine D. Noyes on July 9, 1844.:
