Gave Mr Porter today a bill on Mr Will Margesson… value 48.10.3, but Mr Porter as yet has neither given me cash for it or any note acknowledging the receipt.
I dined on the remains of yesterday’s dinner… At home all day and thank God pretty busy. In the evening wrote my London letters. Dame Seaman, her two, daughters and Mary Nutley drank tea with me. Mr Porter, having endorsed the bill I gave him today, enclosed it in a letter and directed it for Mr Adams at the Indian Queen in Penton Street, St James, Haymarket, gave it to me in order to send by the carrier to be put in the penny post.
