In the morning I went down to Mr Porter’s and informed him I had just received advice from Messrs Margesson and Collison that Mr Wright had paid them on my account for his use the sum of 57.13.6.

Oh, now pleasant has this day been — to have been almost continual busy, and then after the hurry of the day to enjoy the pleasure of the evening in reading.
