Awakened very early by the alarming dictates of a guilty conscience. Oh, insuperable burden! I came home about 8:20. Spent this journey on the parish account by signing the warrant etc., 0.9.0. My brother stayed and breakfasted with us and then went home about 10:10… We dined on the remains of yesterday’s dinner with the addition of an apple-pie buttered, In the evening Mr Burgess, Master Hook and myself went and searched Jones’s house, Prall’s, Watford’s and Bridgman’s barns for vagrants, but found none. Came home about 8:10. Rec’d of Mr Burgess in cash £10 in order to pay for Thomas Daw’s iron. I accordingly sent it in a parcel of magazines by Robert Tyler to my brother for him to carry it to the forge-man at Buxted for us.
