John Piper, coming in just as I was at dinner, dined with me on the remains of yesterday’s dinner. Paid John Shelley in cash 10.3.6 in full for the same sum he paid in London for me this week… Dame Akehurst a-washing for me all day. Sam Jenner, coming; in the evening and it being excessive wet, stayed with me all night, as did Dame Akehurst. At home all day and a very wet day. In the evening we played a few games of cribbage; I neither won or lost.
