12. Plunged the seven pots of Pyram : Camp: in the 

 border against Parsons's under y e Filbert-hedge. Planted 

 a nursery-border of small bulbous-roots. Dug up a decay- 

 ing Cluster-pine, & parsley-elder in the shrubbery, & put 

 a two-thorned-Acacia, & Judas-tree in their room. A most 

 delicate summer-like day. 



Nov r - 14. Transplanted the striped-Epilobium into a 

 fresh bason. Planted about 20 fraxinellas, seedlings from 

 M r - Budd, in a nursery. Planted several Laurels in the 

 gaps of the Hedges round Baker's Hill. 



The potatoes raised from about 14 large ones cut in 

 pieces, turned-out a fine Crop of about 3 Bushels : several 

 single ones weigh'd about a pound. Put-by about 30 of 

 the finest as a supply for a crop next year. 



Planted some cuttings of parsley-elder, with some 

 cuttings of fine white Currans. 



15. Planted in the new-garden two standard-Duke- 

 Cherries ; an espalier-Orleans-plumb ; an espalier-green- 

 gage plumb ; a duke-cherry against the north-west-wall of 

 the brewhouse, & a standard-muscle-plumb in the orchard. 

 There trees came from Forster of North Warnboro', & 

 seemed to be good in their kind ; were planted the day 

 they were taken out of the nursery, in basons, which being 

 prepared before, were in excellent crumbling order.
