To day the boys are engaged hauling some things up to the King house to which place I have this day moved my family for the residue of the summer on account of their ill health at the mill place. Jimmy [James Wrigley Hall] is still improving a little. so are all the rest of the sick except Josephine [Josephine Martha Hall] who still has the fever. Weather variable & 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.
