To day I remained at the house and occupied my time in reading. In the evening the little woman, Mrs. Wrigley and Miss Emma Johnson with myself and James Wrigley took a strole to see the Steamer Ruthven arrive. we all got a magnificent ice punch and returned home. weather clear and warm.
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.
