TUESDAY 3rd JULY 1888

Home in morning.

Afternoon to Longton. Called on J.P. Bettany(?) at Meir and looked over Mrs W. Alcock's property, which I found in bad repair.

Thence to look at the Railway Hotel, Foley, on sale - so as to send word to Bells.

Had tea at Mrs Nelson's, Gate Street and supper at Jim Goodwin's - 9pm train from Longton and walked back from Blyth Bridge with Loton(?) Hordern and his wife. Wet night.
