1:00 pm Moderate Cloudy threatning Rain

2:00 pm Washed all the Beams and the between Decks with Vinegar.

5:00 pm A little Squally. Drew the Boxes of one Pump and employed hands to pour water down, and kept the other pump constantly going for one hour untill the water came out no more offensive than when it was put in. This with the washing with Vinegar had a most refreshing effect.
