My late servant Mary Martin came to see me in the morning. She breakfasted with me and also dined with me on the remains of yesterday’s dinner with the addition of a piece of bacon boiled and green salad. My late servant and Dame Trill drank tea with me.
At home all day and really very busy. In the evening my late servant went home. In the evening read part of Shakespeare’s Works, which I think extreme good in their kind. Oh, what pleasure is an active busy life–far preferable to an indolent, lazy and useless life.
