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.

Monday, March 12th, 1866
To day I am still in Galveston and at the Washington Hotel. The Str. Indian No. 2 arrived from Liberty with Capt. John W. Redmond on board as a passenger who left my house yesterday. I received a letter from the little woman [Margaret Hall Stewart nee Sharp] ordering some other things and in consequence of which I had to turn out and purchase them. I drove out on the beach with Dr. Stanwood. My cough is much improved. Weather variable & cool.
