Rec’d of Joseph Fuller 1 lb of beef. My brother came over to stand the shop for me in the afternoon and dined with me on the remains of yesterday’s dinner with the addition of some beefsteaks broiled.
In the afternoon I went up to the dwelling-house of the late Mr Will Piper, where Mr Porter and I settled the affairs relating to our trust, and upon making the balance of our account, there remains in my hands the sum of 5.5.4. I received my bill for goods delivered for the use of the family. We drank tea there and came home about 7:20. My brother went away immediately.
