To day Charley Lund, Sam Sharp, Ed Jones & myself hoisted the confederate flag on the top of a 30 foot pole and it placed on the top of the Ware house, where it now floats to the breeze, the emblem of the free. The river commenced rising very fast. weather changable & rather cool.
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.
