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.

Thursday, May 29th, 1862
To day I loaned my horse Hawk to D. Richardson who left in company with Charley Lund for Smith's point on Galveston bay. I am very busy in the conscript office. The boys are still engaged in hauling corn from Swilley's landing. The little woman is able to be up and look after her household affairs. weather clear & warm.
