My brother came over in the morning to assist me in cutting out some bedding for Mrs Coates and breakfasted with me and also stayed and dined with me on the remains of yesterday’s dinner with the addition of a plain suet pudding and potatoes. After we had finished our work my brother went home. This day received a letter by the post from Mr Thomas Dyke & Son in Sarum that the bill value 10.19.0 sent him the 16th ult. came safe to hand. At home all day; in the evening Sam Jenner came in and stayed and took part of my bed.
