Summary: Journal for the month of October. Entries are written across two pages and include notes on the weather, persons on watch, absences, as well as tasks and repairs completed at the lighthouse. A buoy disappeared on the 12th and a dispatch was sent to S. L. Lawrence to send notify him that one G. Clifford would be made assistant keeper by order of Henry Picking, Naval Secretary of the Light House Board. Clifford was apparently an unpopular choice as an inspection was conducted concerning the keeper's refusal to put Clifford on duty.
