To day Bill went to work on the road. I have entirely recovered from my spider bite and went to work repairing my double harness which has just been brought up from Liberty on the wagons. The other boys I gave holliday. Sam [Samuel Houston Sharp] ground 10 bushels of corn. weather clear & hot. 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.

To day Bill is still at work in the lower field. I am lying flat on my back from the effects of a spider bite received last night. Late in the evening my wagons got home from Liberty, having made the up trip in nine days. they made the trip both ways all safe and sound. Sam [Samuel Houston Sharp] ground 10½ bushels of corn. weather clear and hot. Ther: standing at 90°.
