April 25th

April 25th Having completed my ride on horseback before breakfast I wrote a french exercise, got a french grammar lesson and read two fables in Wanostrchts Recueil

I read 30 pages of history and finished the reign of Edward I king of England. He died in the sixty ninth year of his age and thirty-fifth of his reign hated by his neighbors, but very much respected by his own subjects. I heard the children their lessons and worked untill dinner after which I got geography.
