Drew. \u2015 Poor dear Ann<\/a> came, she is pretty well \u2015 yet less strong. Letters of Mary<\/a> & R. Boswell<\/a> \u2015 painful enough. Foord<\/a>\u2019s people came, & took away 4 unfinished pictures & a canvass: \u2015 but, in placing the Nuneham pictures in frames, some wood dust marred all the painting until it be dry. So it could not be fixed in \u2015 & I was as cross as 500000 bears.<\/p>\n

At 1 \u2015 Lunch with Ann: \u2015 & drew again after \u2015 but I was very cross. She, poor dear, went at 3.30. \u2015 I then out, & called on the Crakes<\/a>. Mr. C. very very feeble \u2015 kind old man! \u2015 Mrs. C. M.A.C. & Mrs. H.C. \u2015\u2015\u2015 Then across the park, on to Mr. Hays<\/a> by 5. People there \u2015 so I did not go in. Then to Col. Hornby<\/a> \u2015 he was in: \u2015 & Windham<\/a> came in: the latter robust: the former feeble. Gave my sentiments about the Lord Derbyisms<\/a> \u2015 or my lady Derby\u2019s. \u2015 Home by 6.15. Dressed, & to Ferriers<\/a> \u2015 where was only James Edwards<\/a>. Mrs. F. is doubtless one of the most well-bred, charming, intelligent, & pretty women I have seen \u2015 apart from her relationship to James. I was not as agreable as I should have been, but I was \u201cmaddled\u201d \u2015 & cross. \u2015 I came out very forcibly at times, in talent of various sots. \u2015<\/p>\n

And she has kept her word. No Hornby was at Knowsley at Lady S.\u2019s wedding.<\/p>\n
