Very mild. A good deal of sunshine. Bessie left by 3.50 pm train from Hook Norton. I drove her and Bell. The roads were extremely heavy with mud and I feared we should miss the train in consequence. But we just caught it. Sent Laura Burton’s B S Book and our Sibford Penny Bank Book to Mr Bliss to transfer 8/- and enclosed 2d in stamps for their return.
Harry wrote to his mother and told that she must not be surprised to hear of his being married very shortly. I told him in a letter I wrote this afternoon that I hoped he would not think of taking such a step till he had paid his debts and could afford to keep a wife.
I visited Anna Young and Jane Messenger and took them some mutton. It has been showery and windy all day, with a few bits of sunshine occasionally.
