Wednesday, May 1 1765

In the forenoon being at work in my garden I had an accident to bruise my leg very much. I dined on a piece of beef boiled and Savoy greens. Molly French spent the afternoon and drank coffee with me.

My leg very bad in the evening. Mr Read, surgeon, paid me a visit and dressed my leg. At home all day and a pretty deal of business in the shop. Paid Mr Francis Read in cash 2.3.0 in full for a bill due on the parish account and which I passed in my accounts at Easter.
