My late servant Mary Martin came in the morning, and she, myself and servant at church in the morning, the text in the 10th verse, 17th chapter, St Luke’s Gospel: “So likewise ye, when ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants: we have done that which was our duty to do.”
My late servant dined with me on the remains of yesterday’s dinner, and then went away. No service at our church in the afternoon, Mr Porter preaching at Framfield. I drank. tea with Mrs French. My brother went in the morning to Cuckfield where he bargained as a yearly servant and came home about 3:30, very sober. He then walked over to Chiddingly on business, but did not stay. My servant at Framfield Church in the afternoon. An excessive hot day.
