…I dined on the remains of yesterday’s dinner, with the addition of some boiled mutton and pickles. Rec’d of Francis Turner 12/- in full for half a year’s land tax and 3/- in full for 1 year’s house duty, both due at Lady Day last. Rec’d of Mr Bannister in cash 3.3.0, which with £4 he paid me the 19th ult. makes together the sum of 7.3.0 on account of the receipt for land tax I gave him the 11th ult.
Mr Read paid me a visit and dressed my leg, which is really very bad, and stayed and drank tea with me. Sam Jenner called in the evening to see me and stayed all night. At home all day and my brother very busy in the shop. Rec’d of a Thomas Prall the 12d paid for him on Friday last.
