A calm mild day with sunshine in afternoon. Cycled to Wellwood + Sunderland Hall before [word deleted] church. Helen [Muir] + I went to morning + evening service. In the morning Mrs Paterson of the Scott. Nat. Bible Soc. gave a most interesting + inspiring address1. Mrs Mackintosh2 came to supper + produced a bottle of Port + a lot of apples + tomatoes. I made out some more accounts.
