To day the boys are at work in the lower field. The little woman [Margaret Hall Stewart nee Sharp] rode down to Mother's [Mahala Sharp Hall nee Roberts] & took Toby [Horace Oscar Hall] home with her. I left Crockett in my buggy in Company with Billy Stewart and arrived home late in the evening. Hicks attended the mill and ground 4 bushels of corn. Weather clear and warm. Ther: 84°.
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.
