Monday,
28th
of
December.--William,
Mary,
and
I
set
off
on
foot
to
Keswick.
We
carried
some
cold
mutton
in
our
pockets,
and
dined
at
John
Stanley's,
where
they
were
making
Christmas
pies.
The
sun
shone,
but
it
was
coldish.
We
parted
from
Wm.
upon
the
Raise.
He
joined
us
opposite
Sara's
rock.
He
was
busy
in
composition,
and
sate
down
upon
the
wall.
We
did
not
see
him
again
till
we
arrived
at
John
Stanley's.
There
we
roasted
apples
in
the
room.
After
we
had
left
John
Stanley's,
Wm.
discovered
that
he
had
lost
his
gloves.
He
turned
back,
but
they
were
gone.
Wm.
rested
often.
Once
he
left
his
Spenser,
and
Mary
turned
back
for
it,
and
found
it
upon
the
bank,
where
we
had
last
rested....
We
reached
Greta
Hall
at
about
1/2
past
5
o'clock.
The
children
and
Mrs.
C.
well.
After
tea,
message
came
from
Wilkinson,
who
had
passed
us
on
the
road,
inviting
Wm.
to
sup
at
the
Oak.
He
went.
Met
a
young
man
(a
predestined
Marquis)
called
Johnston.
He
spoke
to
him
familiarly
of
the
L.
B.
He
had
seen
a
copy
presented
by
the
Queen
to
Mrs.
Harcourt.
Said
he
saw
them
everywhere,
and
wondered
they
did
not
sell.
We
all
went
weary
to
bed....
