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.

Monday, October 27th, 1862
To day Sam Sharp* riding my horse Hawk and Bill with the mules and little wagon pretty well loaded left Liberty (after bidding us all good bye) for the mill up the Country [i.e., Houston County]. To which place I have now fully concluded to remove and settle down I hope permanently with my little woman and babies. weather clear and cold with a frost at night.
