Monday, February 24 1755

At home all day and very busy. Sent Messrs Margesson and Collison in a parcel by Smith £18; drew on them today for £15 to Mr Mat Blake, 28 days’ date. Paid Vinal 16d for mending the copper.

In the evening went with Mr Clinch to see Mr T. Thompsett. Found him very ill. After supper read part of the 2nd volume of The Sports of the Muses.
