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.

Saturday, February 3rd, 1866
To day I remained at home, not being able to go out in consequence of a bad cold, cough and sore throat. Hicks still at work at the school house for Col. Wrigley. Frank [Stewart] & Burt [Roberta Downes Halyard nee Hall] are still sick, and I see no change for the better. Mrs. Massie still here sewing for the little woman [Margaret Hall Stewart nee Sharp]. she however left for home late in the evening. Weather variable and cold.
