We dined on the remains of yesterday’s dinner. At home all day; a very cold day. In the afternoon my brother Moses and cousin Thomas Ovendean came to see me and stayed and spent the evening and supped with me on the remains of today’s dinner and bread and cheese and apple pie. They stayed till about 9:40 and then went away.
I think I never saw a more stupid young fellow in my life than my cousin Thomas Ovendean; his discourse is one continued flow of oaths almost without any intermission.
