Wednesday, 30 March 1859
Cloudy & windy; ― & afternoon wet ― storm of rain & much wind ― for Rome that is ―
Worked off & on at B.H.H.’s Jerusalem ― but sadly sleepy.
The Sandbachs ― & various others came ― & the Chambers.
Weary of showing things to people! ― At 6, called on the Woodwards.
Home to dine alone ― wrote Greek. ―
