To day in the forenoon Sam [Samuel Houston Sharp] & I went fishing with very poor success. Nellie [Mary Alexandrien Sharp nee Lemaire] is still complaining with her thumb. Fawn [Florence Mahala Hall] & Jimmy [James Wrigley Hall] were again attacked with fever. In the evening I remained at home writing up this journal. weather changeable & hot. 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.
