Sam Jenner at work for me all day and dined with me on part of a shoulder of veal roasted and stuffed.

In the afternoon Thomas Durrant and I walked to Uckfield to pay my friend Mr Elless a visit, with whom we drank tea and spent the evening. Came home very safe and well and pretty sober about 1:10, and I think I was never entertained in so polite and genteel a manner by any one person I ever paid a visit to, everything being conducted with the greatest politeness imaginable, and yet with the greatest freedom and friendship. Sam Jenner, staying with my servant during my absence, took part of my bed.
