November 11, 1772

1772 November 11 (Wednesday).  Early we were mounted.  Rode about 2 Miles before the Sun rose.  Breakfast at Squire Luscombe’s.  Mr. Barnham came to us and invited us to his House, but we hastened on to Fosters in Middleborough precinct, where was his Daughter Mrs. Russel of Plymouth with 3 of her Children.  N.B. her mother was Mrs. Stones Sister Martha.  We took Horse once more — and arrived at Mr. Moores about 2 p.m.  And to the praise of God found my dear Suse alive!  To God most high be all Glory!  And may I be Ever sensible of my infinite Obligations to honour and Serve Him — fresh Obligations from this Token of divine Favour!
