Miss Dix wrote in reply to my note saying she did not see her way to paying money owing to Hancox to the Charity though undoubtedly it had the first claim, as the creditors would probably combine to do something in the matter. She asked that it might be left in abeyance for the present.
Mr Norris sent me cheque for £2.. 3. due from him to Elijah Hancox, on account of amount due from Hancox to Trustees of Fuel Land. I gave Mr Norris a written undertaking on part of Trustees to repay the amount to him on demand.

My cough very troublesome all day.

Received from Spottiswoode & Co notice for new edition of G.L.B. Standard v.
My cold still very troublesome, so that I had to stay indoors all day.
