I dined on the remains of yesterday’s dinner with the addition of a cold mutton pie. After dinner set out for Newhaven to see my friend Tipper. I arrived about 4:10, but he was not at home. I drank tea with his sister, and in the evening my friend Tipper came home. I spent the evening with him and took part of his bed. I called at Mr John Madgwick’s in Lewes on my road to Newhaven, but did not stay.
Spent today 2d for the turnpike. A very windy day, not but a very little rain. Not but little business in the shop before I set out on my journey.
