~~"A common–place book contains many notions in garrison, whence the owner may draw out an army into the field on competent warning"~~

Another day wasted in Convocation. I seconded a motion proposed by the Bp. of Southampton in favour of the 'United forward Movement' for the better education of Europeans & Eurasians in India.
Then I moved an amendment making a verbal alteration of a motion anent Welsh Disestablishment. This was seconded by the Dean of Lincoln: & debated all the afternoon, when I was defeated by a great majority.
Inge, Gow, Mr Stocks, Mrs Stocks, Raleigh, the Bp. of Southampton, & the Archdeacon of Leicester formed our dinner party.
Afterwards we went to the Reception at Lambeth.
