May 11th [1841]
. . . . This morning I arose at milking-time in good trim for work; and we have been employed partly in an Augean labour of clearing out a wood-shed, and partly in carting loads of oak. This afternoon I hope to have something to do in the field, for these jobs about the house are not at all to my taste.
