My brother sent his servant over in the forenoon, by whom I sent him one bill on Mr Will Margesson… value £31, which is in full for the same sum I had received of him the 16th instant.
Sam Jenner, being at work for me all day, dined with me on a piece of beef roasted, a raisin suet pudding and potatoes. At home all day and very little to do. Ellen Pierce, my late servant, drank tea with me. In the evening wrote my London letters. A very cold day and a sharp frost. After I had wrote my London letters my brother and I played a few games of cribbage; I won 4d.
