Old Tristram Journal

 is a tome in the first act of Diablo III. It can be found on the Old Tristram Road inside a box next to a house with a tree growing behind it and a watermelon patch below. It can also be found in The Old Ruins by Griswold's Fine Weapons inside of a lockbox.

It reads as follows:


 * "The rumors of torture and worse grow every day. What has happened to Tristram and its king? I once thought Leoric a great man, but it seems I was deceived. We all were. He sends our meager army against Westmarch on the morrow. What will become of us?"
 * ~Villager Despina
