June 29, 1755

1755 June 29 (Sunday).  I read 2 Sam. 11, and preach’d on Eccl. 12.13.  P.M. read Ps. 51.17 before the Fast, fearing least I Shall be absent from here on that Solemnity.  N.B. I read the Same Ps. publickly.  And gave Notice at Eve to the Congregation that it was uncertain whether I Should be at home the ensuing Fast by reason of what I had engag’d before I knew anything of the Fast.  Mrs. Mercy Chamberlin from Stockbridge here and lodges here.
