Stevens 1879-10-28

St Simon and St Jude. Divine Service at 9.15 am.
Dined at Canon Payne’s. Mr Bigge-Wither an old New College Fellow and Mr Montagu were present. Handed over to Canon Payne an old Epwell Churchwarden’s Account Book which I had discovered in the Sibford Charity Estates Chest. The first entry was dated 1594 but there were entries of previous year. The last entry was 1713 – but that was forty or fifty years subsequent to the previous one.
Visited Dr Routh.
