19th. Up and to the office, and thence presently to the Exchequer, and there with much trouble got my tallies, and afterwards took Mr. Falconer, Spicer, and another or two to the Leg and there give them a dinner, and so with my tallies and about 30 dozen of bags, which it seems are my due, having paid the fees as if I had received the money I away home, and after a little stay down by water to Deptford, where I find all full of joy, and preparing to go to Dagenhams tomorrow. To supper, and after supper to talk without end. Very late I went away, it raining, but I had a design pour aller à la femme de Bagwell and did so.⁠ ⁠… So away about 12, and it raining hard I back to Sir G. Carteret and there called up the page, and to bed there, being all in a most violent sweat.
