Dame Akehurst, a-washing for me today, dined with me on the remains of yesterday’s dinner, as did also Sam Jenner. Paid Samuel Dallaway in cash 0.7.2 in full for work done for Mr Vine since his effects have been consigned over to us in trust. Spent today 4d in treating with Mr Stace on the same account about taking Mr Vine’s farm and effects, but we came to no fixed agreement.
