I dined on the remains of yesterday’s dinner with the addition of an apple pudding and some carrots. In the afternoon my brother came over to take up a waistcoat for Mr Tipper, and they both drank tea with me.
In the evening; wrote my London letters. At home all day but not very busy. I think I never knew so general a complaint for money in the little circle of my knowledge as there is at this present time. It is hardly to be met with in the common rise of trade, and those, that have money be too often want to look down with an eye of disdain and even contempt on those who know the want of it.
