6 November

Monday 6^th. Fine but cold. At one oC. went out. Ordered a copy of

Allen’s “Histy. ^of Portsmouth” to be interleaved _^^{(for additions)} at Comerfords. Finished

4th. Vol. of Clarendon. Read Livy, _^ ^{and a novel,} Gaston de Blonville by Mrs Rad-

cliffe. Very poor, – the absurdity of transferring the manners

of Edw. IV. time to Hen. III. is too glaring.
