The swallows seem to be distressed for food this cold wet weather, & to hawk up & down the street among the houses for flies with great earnestness.  Some of my rasps bear twice in the year, & gave now ripe fruit: these berries the partridges have found out, & have eaten most of them.  Thomas sprung two brace & a half among the bushes this morning.  These birds were hatched in Baker’s hill.  A flood last week at Hedleigh mill. The miller at Hawkley has long been distressed for want of water.  Spinage very fine.  Herrings are brought to the door.
