To day I left Crockett in Company with Billy Stewart and came out by the way of Simpson's. I obtained from Mr. Simpson a qt. of whiskey and borrowed a decanter. I got from Mr. Downes in Crockett 56 balls of thread being a part of what I left with him for sale. Weather cloudy & hot, with occasional showers of rain. Ther: 95°.
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.
