To day I am engaged in the store generally. Sam H. Sharp did by a light squeeze make out to come to the store but only for a few minutes. Capt. Wrigley and Company returned to town from their camp of instruction, whether benefited or not by the weeks work I cannot say but all however in good humor & a fine spirits. weather cloudy and warm with occasional showers of rain.
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.
