Diary of Rev Edward Stevens

Fine but rather cold.

Baptized C. Legge’s child Jane. Spoke to Mr Timms about a boy he has in his employ and who ought to be at school, the case having been mentioned at the School Attendance Committee meeting.

Fine. Cold. Drove Bell round Epwell, Shutford and Tadmarton this afternoon.

Both Bell and self called at Dr Routh’s this evening. Saw only Mrs R.

Bell and I walked round Pound Lane and Sibford Ferris this evening.

Received letter from Hughes about the A.C.S. etc which have been very much delayed through his oversight or something else, perhaps his illness. I had written him several times without receiving any reply. I wrote to him again today.

Mary Lively came down to ask for some wine for her husband.
