March 7, 1759

1759 March 7 (Wednesday).  No body to preach my Lecture but my Self, and it was well I troubled no body to come to preach, for it was so very cold I feared there would be but very few to hear.  I preached on Isa. 7.14, repeating with additions etc.  After Lecture paid Deacon Bond 30£ which I owed him by Note.  Righteousness is as pleasing to God as Sacrifice, and more so.  Send Word by Mr. Bigolow to his Wife not to come to the Communion next Sabbath.
