In the morning Mr Long and I went to John Cayley’s, where we measured a piece of wood ground of about 5 acres. Mr Long came back and breakfasted with me.
In the forenoon I papered out a bag of nails… about 4:30 Joseph Fuller Jr, Mr Long, Mr Thornton, Thomas Durrant and myself went to Laughton to pay a visit to Mr Edward Shoesmith, with whom we drank tea and stayed and supped on a veal pasty. Came home about 1:40, not thoroughly sober, nor very much in liquor, walking home very well without so much as a fall or anything like one.
