]Memoranda]
Looking back over the year I cannot recall one thing of usefulness or worth that I have accomplished for others nor one of pleasure or satisfaction for myself. The futility of my existence, my weakness in effort my failure in accomplishment fills me with a creeping melancholy that grows more impenetrable. I will fight against it once more by hard work & if in two yrs. ['more' crossed out ] the results are no better than in the past I shall die of my own volition.
