Glad neither Pleasance or sister-in-law suffered by the accident [unspecified]. Their journey to Holkham [home of Thomas William Coke]. Plans for Pleasance to join them at Holkham in October, following his lectures in Birmingham. Duke of Sussex [Prince Augustus Frederick (1773-1843)] and [William] Roscoe also to visit. Lists current guests. A game of "long shilling". Shall be cautious when eating fruits. Reading "Voice from St Helena".
