Bright sun, but still intensely cold. Received letter from Mr Stone of Banbury asking me to have “County Council Lectures” on Gardening in schoolroom early in March.
I am having very sleepless nights, rarely getting to sleep till 4 or 5 am. Last night I felt the cold more than ever before. I took some small doses of Bromide of Potassium.
Bright, but east wind and intensely cold. Thermometer in my bedroom where there was a fire 33° only. I did not go out. Harry and his wife were to go down to Windermere today.
Bright but very cold E wind like a Blizzard. About 70 persons present in church this morning and 90 this afternoon, Rose and I called on Miss Sarah Dicks on our way home from church this afternoon. I got through my duties fairly well, but it was extremely cold at my end of the church.
