After a miserable night I could hardly look at breakfast. Kept the house again. Got the list of accounts made up + with David’s1 help got the county ones sent off. D [David] had no country work. There were several more town messages. Mrs McGuire2 called to see me. She is leaving the Railway Hotel3. She and her husband have taken the Waverley Hotel, Bonnyrigg4. Helen5 was down at Elmpark6 for tea. Mrs Dubs7 was to be there. The snow, which was lying all over this morning, had almost completely disappeared by night.
