…I dined on the remains of yesterday’s dinner, with the addition of part of a neck of lamb boiled (Mr Long dining at Master Hook’s). In the afternoon the infant daughter of Mr Bannister was baptized by the name of Ann, and in the evening Mr Long and myself, upon Mr Bannister’s invitation, spent the evening there in company with Mrs Burgess, Mr James Fuller and his wife, Joseph Durrant and his wife, Thomas Durrant, John Piper and Robert Hook. We stayed till 12:30 and came home sober. Gave the nurse 12d and maid 6d. Mr Long took part of my bed. At home all day and very busy. In the afternoon wrote my London letters.
