To day I settled with Wrigley for negro woman Rachael the property of the little woman, and upon said settlement Wrigley paid me $1100 ~ which puts me in debt to her in the sum of $1300. I left Liberty at 2 o'clock P.M. for Galveston on board of the steamer Swan and had a very pleasant trip. expenses of the day $3.50. weather clear & pleasant, but rather 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.
