Peoys’ Diary.
September 21st, 1663. My wife being very weary I took the opportunity of an empty coach that was to go to London, and left her to come in it for half-a-crown, and so I and the boy home as fast as we could drive, and it was even night before we got home. By and by comes my wife by coach well home, and having got a good fowl ready for supper against her coming we eat heartily, and so with great content and ease to our own bed, there nothing appearing so to our content as to be at our own home after being abroad awhile. September 22nd, 1663. This day my wife showed me bills printed, wherein her father has got a patent for curing of smoky chimneys, but I fear it will prove but a poor project.
