…Master Watford at work for me today, and dined with us on a loin lamb roasted and French beans. Paid Ben Shelley in cash 12.16.6 in full for money paid for me this week… At home all day, but not very busy. About 4:20 we had a tempest of thunder, rain and lightning, though not very severe, the thunder being at a great distance, neither was it of long continuance.
