Rec’d of Sam Washer 48/9 in full of all demands to this day. Sent Mr Thomas Dyke & Son at New Sarum enclosed in a letter by the post 1 bill on Mr William Margesson…value 7.17.0.
We dined on the remains of yesterday’s dinner. At home all day. In the afternoon my brother came over and drank tea with me. In the evening wrote my London letters. Pretty busy all day. But no money to be took or anyways got at. Most melancholy time indeed.
