To day I received a very interesting letter from the little woman. The Liberty Guards are drilling at the ware house. But little business doing. I loaned Capt. J.W. Redman 10$ in cash with no hopes of ever receiving it back. The Steamer Ruthven left for Galveston. weather clear and very hot.
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.
