Chimpanzee and other monkeys, we
took a stroll in the grounds, and thence
to the train. Being rather early we did
not experience the same difficulty in
getting a seat as we should, later in
the day and we escaped being
crushed. The remainder of the day I
spent at home and after a game
of Cribbage with Miss [Wonkiworth?], a poor
deformed sister of Tom's wife who is
living with us. I went to bed pretty
well knocked up with my day's amuse-
ment.

Sunday Apr. 16

Easter Sunday, and a beautiful day: a
day which will be enjoyed by thousands
of English people. I am at present suffering
from a bad cold. We took a walk this
morning to Greenwich Park, and again
after tea, where we were highly amused
at the young man and girls running
down the Observatory Hill, an amuse-

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.
