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.

Tuesday, May 9th, 1865
To day after taking nearly all the cotton off the steamer, she floated and we got out of the canal and over the bay and then run to Chamber's Wharf and commenced taking to the loading again. The Steamer Orizaba also run over the bar and proceeded on her voyage to Galveston. Weather changeable & cool with a light shower of rain.
