To day I went up town in company with Charley Lund and after playing 2 games of billiards returned with him to his residence where I partook of a nice dinner served up in Mrs. Lund's elegant style. After spending a couple of hours very pleasantly we returned to the river. The Str. Ruthven arrived and departed for Galveston. weather cloudy with occasional showers of rain. Ther :: standing at 88°
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.
