Morning at the Office and in Court. Received a pleasant letter from my father upon general subjects which I reflected upon much during 369the morning. His style to me is flattering to my vanity and he no doubt so intends it. Read a little law and rode to Medford to dine. The weather was very warm. Mrs. Brooks was unwell again. Conversation with Abby. Better pleased with her than last time, though she is still cold.
