To day I remained home with the little woman [Margaret Hall Stewart nee Sharp]. Nellie [Mary Alexandrien Sharp nee Lemaire] rode down to Mother's [Mahala Sharp Hall nee Roberts] and spent the day. she returned home in the evening and brought Toby [Horace Oscar Hall] home with her. Bill made a trip with the little wagon down to the mill. Weather changeable & hot. Ther: 92°.
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.
