Samuel Pepys' Diary. 11th August 1661. Lord's Day. To our own church in the forenoon, and in the afternoon to Clerkenwell Church, only to see the two1 fayre Botelers;2 and I happened to be placed in the pew where they afterwards came to sit, but the pew by their coming being too full, I went out into the next, and there sat, and had my full view of them both, but I am out of conceit now with them, Colonel Dillon (age 34) being come back from Ireland again, and do still court them, and comes to church with them, which makes me think they are not honest.
