Sunday
Packed all the complete plates
and bowls, and listed coins from which there appears to be another Emneth hoard, found less than a quarter of a mile from that
which we already have. There are about
80 of them, the majority Postumus.
Query – could these hoards, which occur so frequently, have been left by people
fleeing from Brancaster in the face of early Saxon Raids?
Called at Bullard’s to see more
pottery, which Warby says he has, but he was not there.
Had tea at the Limes. Some people there from Bury, talking about
the recent machine-gunning. ‘Divers’ are
over the town quite frequently. Left at
quarter to 11. A strong gale, driving
thick clouds, and every prospect of a quiet night.
