1758 March 26 (Sunday). Read 2 Chron. 4, Luk. 21. Preached a.m. on Joh. 15.5. I delivered about 12 pages (or the Quantity of two short Sermons) although it was all I could prepare because it could not be well divided — and I was desirous to give as much of it at once as I well could, for the Sake of a Number of Strangers from Hopkinton here, who would be more likely to understand it by these means. Young Mr. Barrett of Hopkinton here at Dinner. Tells me his Father was scalded, and is very lame. P.M. repeated sermon on Ps. 73.24 to p. 14.
