To day Mother [Mahala Sharp Hall nee Roberts] sent the little woman [Margaret Hall Stewart nee Sharp] a quarter of a beef. William Leaverton came to see us, who has just returned from a trip to Navarro he did not stay long but left for Crockett. I remained at home all day reading. weather clear & pleasant.
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.
