Day: August 28, 1742

August 28, 1742

1742 August 28 (Saturday).  Brother Samuel Breck came from Springfield and brought a Melancholly Letter concerning himself from Brother Breck.  The Lord grant us Grace suitably to humble our selves under the Frown of his Providence and grant the wisdom that may be profitable to direct in so difficult a Case!  Brother went to Marlborough.

Why Do the Days Listed in the Diary Entries before Sept. 15, 1752 Not Correspond to the Days on the Calendar?

In 1752, Great Britain and the American colonies switched from the Julian Calendar to the Gregorian Calendar, which we use today in a slightly updated form.
