In the forenoon posted part of my day book. I dined on the remains of yesterday’s dinner. In the afternoon my brother came over to stand the shop for me, I being a-going to Uckfield. I set out on foot about 5:50 and called on Mr French to accompany me agreeable to appointment, but the weather being likely to prove unpleasant, I stayed and drank tea there and spent the evening till about 7:30.
Elizabeth Trill drank tea with my brother in my absence. My brother stayed and smoked a pipe or two with me and then went home.
