Sam Pepys – His Diary: This Day He Has Not Spoken
Samuel Pepys fears for the life of a friend.
Thursday 24 October 1661
At the office all morning, at noon Luellin dined with me, and then abroad to Fleet Street, leaving my wife at Tom’s while I went out and did a little business. So home again, and went to see Sir Robert [Slingsby], who continues ill, and this day has not spoke at all, which makes them all afeard of him. So home.
