All well. It is a bright day. My children all gone to Mr Collier's Church, also Catie. After dinner part of them went to Colliers, and part to Mr Locke's Sunday School. The deepest regret of my life is the division of feeling between Mr Badger and myself in church matters. Consequently there is a division in our children views. It is sad and has caused me a great deal of agony. Mr. Badger and children gone tonight unclear. Mr. Klemt? Mr Spud here today.
