Rec’d of Mr Will Sturt 27/6 in full. Rec’d of Mary Rich 13/- in full. I dined on the remains of yesterday’s dinner with the addition of part of a leg of mutton boiled and greens. Paid Mr Thomas Carman in cash £1, which, with the £21 paid him yesterday makes £22 and is in full for a bill of the same value on Mr Thomas Hooker which I received of him the 2nd of January last, and for which I then gave him my note of hand, but have now taken it up.
Paid Mrs French by her son Sam in cash and by a book debt 3.9.4½ in full on the parish account. Paid Ben Shelley by his servant in cash 5/- in full for the same sum he paid Mr Daniel Mecham in full on my account the 4th instant. In the evening went down to Jones’s to a public vestry in order to make a poor rate, but Mr Carman, the other overseer, not being there, we were obliged to postpone it till Tuesday next.
