I shirked Convocation, where the agenda seemed rather trivial, & released Tucker, who seems to enjoy the futile assembly.

At 2 p.m. I married Miss Apperley to Mr Frank Bell. The Cathedral was thronged with townsfolk.

After the function I walked with Cruikshank on the Banks, & then attended Evensong.
