After breakfast rode to Lewes concerning Darby’s affair. Came home about 11:10… I dined on the remains of yesterday’s dinner with the addition of some peas.
In the evening my worthy friend and acquaintance Mr Snelling called on me and stayed with me some time. Very little to do all day and truly a very melancholy time. What, oh, what shall I do, or what will become of me? work I cannot; steal I hope I never shall once think of; therefore let me try and submit with patience to any circumstances it shall be my lot to endure.
