February 3, 1758

1758 February 3 (Friday).  The women still with us without Effect: except Mrs. Rogers, who went away: and Capt. Wood brought his Wife: and then went with a message to Dr. Crosby for Advice and Medicines.  But yet no Effect nor success as to Travail Pains.  After Supper several women went home, viz. Mrs. Beeton — Capt. Wood carryed home his wife and widow Newton.  The rest tarryed.  Inexpressible Distraction in my studys, in the middst of so much Company; together with the Difficultys of the Storm.
