In the morning I rose early with an intention to go to the Wells, but it being a very wet morning I could not proceed on my journey. My brother stayed with me all the forenoon and dined with me on the remains of yesterday’s dinner with some cucumbers, and then went away.
A very wet day, it raining excessively hard from about 2 o’clock in the morning till near — in the afternoon, and continued showery at times all the afternoon. At home all day and but very little to do. In the evening Sam Jenner, coming in and it being an exceedingly wet night, took part of my bed. Paid John Nutley in cash and goods 4/- in full for ½ bushel flour delivered to Babcock last week and l peck to German this week.
