We dined on the remains of yesterday’s dinner with the addition of a plain bread pudding and a piece of pork and greens. At home all day; my wife very ill again. Paid a son of Mr Heaver, miller at Isfield, 16d for 3 bushels bran received by him today.
Oh, melancholy situation my wife extremely ill; quite alone, almost; and trade very dead; but still, what is this to the prospect of losing my intimate, my familiar and sincere friend?
