Diary of Rev Edward Stevens

Bell caught a severe cold yesterday and did not go out all to day.

Rosa is not so well. My cough is somewhat troublesome and colds are extremely prevalent, owing I suppose to the change in the weather.

Wake Monday. School children have holiday. Fine day. Sharp frost last night.

Received a letter from Messrs Fortescue saying they had written to the Tarvers threatening legal proceedings if they did not immediately give up the allotments.

Received letter from Mr Curry who is at present in Ireland but returns to Stratford this week.

Visited Mrs Austin Gardner, Joseph Dale and School.

Fine day. Mrs Shelswell called.
