1728 February 19 (Monday). I rode to Boston to Dr. Mathers Funerall. It look’d very Sad — almost as if it were the funerall of the Country. A very Sad Breach. Of for Sufficient portions of Gods Spirit upon surviving ministers! Vast Concourse Exceeding long Procession and numberless Spectators. Every heart Sad. This Evening at cousin Dorcas Bows[1] where was Mrs. Rebecca Adams and by and by Brother Samuell Parkman.
[1]Mrs. Dorcas Bowes, cousin of Mrs. Parkman.
