I dined on the remains of yesterday’s dinner. Rec’d today as under:
| Of Mr Jeremiah French per self | 16.0.0 |
| Thomas Davy per self | 0.4.0 |
| John Cayley per self | 1.6.0 |
| Widow Page per son Richard | 2.16.0 |
| John Vine per his man | 4.8.0 |
| Will Wenham per self | 0.16.0 |
| Richard Hope per self | 1.12.0 |
all of which is in full for half a year’s land tax due at St Michael last. Rec’d of Thomas Davy 4/6 in full for the same sum assessed on him by a poor rate made the 9th day of August last.
Paid William Jenner the constable for this half hundred in cash 6.8.3 in full for the same sum assessed on this parish as their quota for the county stock.
At home all day and really very little to do. Sam Jenner lodged at my house… Oh, what a melancholy and dull time it is for trade! Oh, my distracted and anxious mind! Trouble I have, and that a great deal, though not imaginary, but real.
