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.

Monday, January 22nd, 1866
To day I am at work at the Ware house. Hicks & Albert are engaged hauling logs to store the Cotton upon. Col. Wrigley finished the well at the convent. Frank [Stewart], Burt [Roberta Downes Halyard nee Hall] & Pet [Florence Mahala Hall] are all still sick. Wrigley consumated his contract with Mrs. Buckley to teach school until the 1st day of July next. Weather cloudy and cool.
