Cough a good deal more this morning.
Day fine at times.

Worked little ― but sorted Palestine & other drawings.

Later went to Foord’s ― Col. Hornby’s ― & Mr. Terrick Hamilton’s.
Met F. Hopwood. ―
Came home to tea.
Letter from Macbean ― the Bassae is on its way!
[T.] Thrupp came in: kind & good fellow ― & evidently as simple as of yore.
