December THURSDAY 26 1895

We have had an exceedingly heavy and continuous rain since last evening until this. I have been buisy inside at sundry jobs such as mending harness &c. The weather has turned somewhat coldr this evening and the rain has turned into snow. Have continued to feel strengthened by believing in the promises of my God. Feel the necessity of living close to Jesus the Lord and Bishop of my Soul.
