A succession of People enquiring particulars concerning the farms to be let, for the settlement of accounts & the planting in Dipton Wood, detained me most of the day.  I had a long conference with Mr Green, the Architect, who examined the execution of the different kinds of Work at the House, the laying out of the Grounds etc. Communicated to Mr Johnson, on the part of the Railway Directors, the terms of letting the Allerwash Lime, which they seem to offer for, and prepared Agreements for the Scremerston & Outchester Farms, to takeover with me for signature.
