17th. To Mr. Holliard’s in the morning, thinking to be let blood, but he was gone out. So to Whitehall, thinking to have had a Seal at Privy Seal, but my Lord did not come, and so I walked back home and stayed within all the afternoon, there being no office kept today, but in the evening Sir W. Batten sent for me to tell me that he had this day spoke to the Duke about raising our houses, and he hath given us leave to do it, at which, being glad, I went home merry, and after supper to bed.
