Tuesday, July 10th, 1860. After travelling all night I arrived at Canton Mississippi for breakfast much fatigued for the want of sleep. After breakfast we proceeded on our way and arrived at Grand Junction Tennessee about 4 a.m. here we remained for supper and at 10 P.M. left Grand Junction by the Memphis & Charleston cars. expenses of the day $1.50. weather clear & 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.
