To day Frank Stewart arrived with the little wagon and mules, having brought down my negro man Bill & woman Louisa with sundry articles. I am still engaged in drawing off wine. Mr. Leaverton still here but very anxious to leave. he is floundering about like a fish out of water. weather clear during the day with a hard rain at night.
Thus closes my notes for the month of December and also for the year just passed and gone and now numbered with the things that were. Whether the Almighty will spare me to chronicle the daily events of the incoming year is more than I know but trusting in Him I shall enter upon the pleasing task, which is useful as a reference and may be profitable to those who have an interest in me.
