Mr Will Francis, partner with Mr Barlow and Wigginton, called on me in the morning and breakfasted with me, and to whom I gave orders for a parcel of linen goods.
I dined on a shoulder of venison roasted, and some gravy sauce. At home all day and but very little to do in the shop. I think I never knew trade so dull in my life, every day continually — losing some bad debts, and no taking any ready money.
