I dined on part of the pound of mutton bought yesterday baked in the oven and a batter pudding under it. Rec’d of the Rev Mr Thomas Porter 2.15.0 in full on account of Master Baker… In the afternoon Mr Porter and I walked up to the dwelling house, late Mr Piper’s, in order to settle some account relating to our executorship.
We accordingly balanced accounts, and the balance of cash in hand was £32, which cash I have now in my hands as treasurer to our said trust. We stayed and drank tea at Mrs Piper’s and came home about 7:20.
In the evening filled up and witnessed a bond from Stephen Fielder of Buxted to John Piper of this parish for £69, the interest at four pounds percent per annum, the bond dated the 12th day of January last. Not very busy in the shop today.
