Lent Richard Page, son of the widow Page, and for her use, in cash four guineas. I dined on the remains of yesterday’s dinner. In the afternoon Mrs Piper, coming to the shop to buy some goods, drank tea with me. Mrs Carman sent me a present of a few sausages and some pork bones.
At home all day and thank God very busy. In the evening Master Hook and I played a few games of cribbage; I won 2½d. Oh, my tumultuous mind! What’s all the world without a friend!
