large party of us took a walk to the
[[Standard Tea Gardens]], had supper at
[[Mr. Braine's]]. On our way down this afternoon
we stopped at the Hospital to see the
Painted Hall or Picture Gallery of the
institution. The ceiling of the room is
most beautifully painted from which I
suppose it takes its name. There are some
very handsome and valuable paintings
here most of them being of nautical charac-
ter and protraits of celebrated admirals
and officers of the [[Royal Navy]]. There are
also deposited here the relics of [[Sir John
Franklin's]] Expidition which have been found
from time to time. Also the coat and vest
which [[Nelson]] had on at the time
of his death. A great many beautiful
models of celebrated ships of the [[Royal
Navy]] are deposited here.

Thursday Aug 4th/64
Went this morning to [[Greenwich
Theatre]] to see the [Illegible?].
Also the farce of [[Stage Struck]]. The first
is a beautiful play.

Transcription Conventions

Spelling: Maintain original spelling (including u/v, i/j, and ff). Long "s" should be replaced with a regular "s". Terminal long "i" characters are transcribed as "i" not "j".
Hyphenation: Preserve hyphens (including "=" characters) at the ends of lines.
Capitalization: Maintain original
Punctuation: Add modern periods, but don't add punctuation like commas and apostrophes.
Deletions: Deleted characters and words are tagged with "strike" and then displayed with the line through them.
Symbols: For apothecary and alchemical symbols, use these symbols followed by the meaning of the symbol in brackets: Rx [recipe]; ℈ [scruple]; ʒ [dram]; ʒs [half dram]; ℥ [ounce]; ℥s [half ounce]; ℔ [pound].
For roman numerals following symbols that indicate amount, i.e., j=1, ij=2, iij= 3, v=5, type arabic numeral in brackets following roman numeral: i [1], ii [2], iii [3], v [5].
Line Breaks: Hit return once after each line ends. Two returns indicate a new paragraph, which is usually indentation following the preceding sentence in the original. The times at the end of each entry should get their own paragraph, since the software does not support indentation in the transcriptions.
Illegible text: Indicate illegible readings in single square brackets: [Dr?]
A single newline indicates a line-break in the original document, and will not appear as a break in the text in some views or exports. Two newlines indicate a paragraph, and will appear as a paragraph break in all views.
