I dined on some beans and pork. In the afternoon went to Master Durrant’s hayfield, where I stayed and worked a-haying an hour or two. In the evening went into Master Durrant’s where I stayed and smoked a pipe or two; came home about 10:50.
Mrs Betty Hicks took part of my servant’s bed, as did Thomas Durrant part of mine, they having company. In the afternoon wrote my London letters. But little to do in the shop all day. A violent hot day. In the day read part of Burnet’s History of the Reformation.
