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, March 19th, 1866
To day I drove up town and held the election in relation to the corporations tax. The District Court for Liberty County commenced its session. Capt. John W. Redmond came over from Houston on the cars, and stopped at my house. The little woman [Margaret Hall Stewart nee Sharp] drove out after Mrs. Massie who came about dinner time. Ed. Jones and Col. Wrigley are at work at the store house. Weather cloudy and cool with occasional showers of rain.
