Sunday 28th March 1858

Palm Sunday,  Julia went to Wootton Church. In the afternoon Mr.G.C. and I went to Ryde, we went through Quarr it was a beautiful walk.

I drank tea at Uncles about half past 6 o’clock, I went to Cousins William’s.  The dear little girls sang very prettily about 8.  Mr, Thrower, Cousin and I went and saw the national school rooms, it was a beautiful piece of building, we again returned to William’s about quarter to 9 o’clock.  Mr. G.C. called in, we had some refreshments, after which Mr.G.C. kindly escorted me home to dear old Wootton Villa, it was a delightful moon light night, and I enjoyed my jaunt very much indeed.

Note;- March 23rd The brown hen hatched 5 chickens.
