Diary of Rev Edward Stevens

In bed till 3 pm with severe cold in head.

Miss A Stevens and Miss Maria Dix came to tea. Mr Henry Stevens was to come as well as Miss Dix and her sister Sarah – but they walked to the Grange – Mr Page’s in the afternoon and did not get back in time.

In bed all day with bad cold. Total eclipse of moon this evening – very clearly seen.

Fine day. My cold somewhat better, but by no means gone.
