Very windy ― gusty ― shiny or cloudy at times. ― Slept off fires ― for the smoke is not to be avoided.
Greek lesson, & paid Lasκαράτο ― 5 dollars. ―
Worked at Husey Hunt’s Jerusalem, & Lady Reid’s, & aperiently finished both, which is a relief to think of.
At 3½ ― made some calls ― all out ― & at 4 ― walked with P. Williams ― till 5½ or 6. Calls ― on Mr. Hay &c.
Wrote to the Chambers that I could not come. ―
Dined alone. Wrote Greek. ―
Windy ― dusty ― very cold.
