John Watford a-carrying of wood for me all day and dined with us on part of a loin of veal boiled, a piece of bacon and some greens. In the afternoon rode to Mr Marchant’s at Laughton to look upon his wool, but he not being at home, I did not buy it. Came home about 4:40. In the evening my sister Sally came to see us and stayed all night… Very busy in the evening.
