Diary of Rev Edward Stevens

Widow Harris of Burdrop came and I gave her some wine.

Drove to Oxford with Mrs Braddell. Went through Bloxham and Duns Tew. Staid at Jesus College with Hughes.

Returned from Oxford, driving same way as I went, Rev F Wilson accompanied me.

Wet afternoon.

Drove to Tadmarton this evening to concert in schoolroom. Rosa, Bell and Mr Wilson accompanied me. At supper at Misses Cookes’s. Mrs Harman told me they wished very much to restore the church. Mrs Norris told me of some poor people who had left Swalcliffe and come to live at Sibford Ferris.

Mr Wilson returned to Oxford. Harry came from Chippenham. Annie came to stay a day or two.
