Whichford handbell ringers came round this morning.

Visited Golder. He was out but I saw his wife. He has two children, girls, 4 and 2 years of age respectively neither of whom has been baptized. The mother said it was not her wish they should be unbaptized. I asked her to tell her husband I want to see him about the allotments at Sibford Ferris which he wishes to have, and to talk to him about the baptism of his children.
