To day the boys are still pulling fodder. Billy Stewart & I went out grape hunting and gathered about one bushel. I let Mr. Summers have 202 lbs. of flour, being the quantity I borrowed from Mr. Swilley while I resided in Liberty. Weather variable & hot, with a light shower of rain. Ther: standing at 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.
