1773 November 14 (Sunday). It being the first sabbath of the Church’s and my Fiftieth year. But by Reason of Mr. Whitneys Request to Change and the [illegible] Argument wherewith he urged it (neither was I at home when he came over on purpose to speak to me) I rode over to Northborough, and preached a. and p.m. on Isa. VI.10. At Eve Mr. Thomas Lambert with me. It was a cold Evening, but Mr. Whitney returned and Mrs. Briggs being very ill, I by Desire went with them to see her. Lodged at Mr. Whitneys.
