To day the boys are at work putting up the Cotton house. Dr. Murchison came over to see Carroll who is still quite sick. Clara is recovering from her sickness slowly. Fawn [Florence Mahala Hall] had another fever and is very much reduced from her sickness. Rachael and Roberta [Berta Downes Halyard nee Hall] came up to see the sick. weather hazy and very hot. The mill done no grinding.
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.
