Myself and Mr Long at church in the morning …Mr Long dined with me on some boiled tripe, a piece of pork, a plain suet pudding and carrots. In the afternoon myself, Mr Long and my servant at church, the text in John 13:17: “If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them,” from which text we had the same sermon this day month in the afternoon.
After churchtime Molly and Bett Carman drank tea with me, and in the evening Mr Long and myself took a walk. Meeting with Joseph Fuller, we went into Mr Burgess’s, where we stayed and smoked a pipe, and had one mug of brandy and water, for which we paid our 4d apiece, and came home about 8:50 very sober. Mr Long took part of my bed.
