After breakfast Mr Porter and myself walked round the parish to collect a brief which he read the 24th ult. for the loss by the hailstorm which happened in Sussex, Aug. 19, 1763. We collected 1.6.1½, but not meeting all at home, we could not complete the collection.
I dined on the remains of yesterday’s dinner. In the evening wrote my London letters. Mrs Carman made me a present of some short bones and a few sausages. At home all the afternoon and but very little to do.
