Just as we were going to church Mr Tucker came to see us (and brought my wife a present of some plaice). Myself and he stayed at home, and my wife and servant went to church. Mr Tucker dined with us on a cold veal pie, a piece of bacon and French beans.
No service at our church in the afternoon, Mr Porter preaching at Laughton. Our servant went to Waldron church. Mr Tucker spent the afternoon with us till about 4:20 and then went home. After tea my wife and I walked down to Whyly and stayed there some time. Came home about 7:40. In the evening read one of Bishop Sherlock’s sermons to Mr Long.
