To day I went out with the boys to hunt up a beef steer but did not succeed. I loaned Genl. Beavers 40 lbs. of flour and delivered it to his girl Fanny. Josephine [Josephine Martha Hall] has recovered from her illness. Weather variable & warm with a shower of rain in the evening. 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.
