Myself at church in the morning… I stayed the communion and gave 6d. When I returned home I found my brother Richard at my house, who came during churchtime to consult about his staying with Mr Madgwick another year. He stayed and dined with me on a roasted duck and part of a neck of mutton roasted and then went away.
Myself and servant at church in the afternoon… After churchtime I went up to Joseph Fuller’s (being invited), where I drank tea in company with Thomas Fuller and his wife (newly married and come to pay their friends a wedding visit), John Fuller and his wife, Mr Shoesmith and his wife, Miss Hammond, Thomas Hammond, Bett Fuller and their own family. I also stayed and supped there and came home about 10:10, sober.
I received of my brother today the bill, value £60, which I sent him the 6th instant by the post to get me cash for, he not having the opportunity to get it exchanged. I must acknowledge I was entertained this evening in a very polite and elegant manner at Mr Fuller’s.
