Note of Events of 27 Oct.

Page 62 -- He sent note to SJ (text of note on a Paper Apart -- 2
fragments)

and 63
Breakfasted with Garrick

talked about prescience

Mr. and Mrs. ?P (or ?D) came in

(There are other scraps which, if they belong to this
morning, show that other people, ?Dance, Echter,
and old -- dropped in)

Page 64 -- Then called at SJ's; feelings as he went along described

The next scraps show him with SJ, Steevens, and Tyers.

Some scraps of conversation in which "Shakespeare",
"Phillips", "Prince [Volliger]" are mentioned. Also
SJ's remark about the "certain voluminous authour."

Fragments of the end of the meeting: JB says, you are
in good humour now. SJ calls him back when he starts to
leave, "Get you gone- in"; "A curious mode of invitation".

After this the record is confused. Some scraps in which
necessity and free will are mentioned may belong to this
time or may belong with the conversation at Garrick's.
Nothing is clear until the fairly complete leaf, page 65,
which may be dated between 29 Oct. and 1 Nov. 1769.
