Fine day. Time as usual. Evening out without success.

I was much engaged at the Office all the morning with various interruptions common on this day of the week but managed on the whole to be satisfied as I recruited my almost exhausted funds considerably thereby. Walk.

Finished Antigone with which I have been much pleased. The drama is a deeply pathetic one from the self devotion of the heroine, and is remarkable as introducing love as one of the moving forces though not the principal in the piece. I now go on to Philoctetes.

Afternoon, Crevier, and in the evening we went out to pay an evening visit to Mrs. Webster but found her not at home. Went on a little heavily with Aaron Burr.
