To day I am very busy in the office and finished making out the tax rolls for Sam. The Steamer Ruthven left for Galveston. In consequence of the negligence of T.W. Key I am disappointed in not having the will of old man Smith probated, he having failed to give the notices required by law. Mr. Ranier commenced painting the inside of my house. The boys are at work on the fence. Sam Sharp is slightly indisposed. weather cloudy and showery. Ther: 90°.
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.
