"I had not time to write more than a line the other day under Croker's cover, having received it just at post time. He sent for me; I found him in his nightcap at the Admiralty, colded badly, but in audacious spirits. His business was this. He wishes to buy up some evening print, such as the dull Star; and could I do anything for it?
He was much interested in the party, and Marjory promised to go to the kitchen and show herself when she was all ready. Lisbeth was much concerned to see her husband so crippled, but she would not allow anything more than that he was "just a wee bit colded," and blamed the weather as being the cause. She was afraid her master might be inclined to find fault with Peter for his helplessness.
William dined with us, all vivid with his Italian ideas, only Jane besides. Made out five pages, I think, or nearly. December 4. Much colded, which is no usual complaint of mine, but worked about five leaves, so I am quite up with my task-work and better. But my books from Abbotsford have not arrived. Dined with the Royal Society Club about thirty members present too many for company.
