At home all day. Paid Mrs Virgoe the 1 shilling I borrowed of her the 7th instant. Paid Master Piper 17¼d for a pig, weight 5¾ lbs, which I sent to Framfield by Sam Elphick… In the evening went down to Mr Porter’s to acquaint him that I have received advice of the 30.13.0 being paid to Messrs Margesson and Collison for my use as he informed me on the 30th December. Mrs Virgoe sat with us about 1 hour in the evening.
