August 15, 1776

1776 August 15 (Thursday).  Mr. Warrin came again, and though it was cloudy he mowed in my Newton Meadow — but about 9 o’Clock was called off and went home.  P.M. though it rained yet Benjamin Tainter, Nathan Chamberlin Sent by Capt. Morse, Daniel Warrin and Moses Warrin, the last Sent by Mr. Levi Warrin, came and mowed my Newton Meadow: all of it out of good will.  Squire Whipple visits me.  At Eve Lieut. Bond for himself and the Soldiers going to Canada, asks a Sermon to be preached to them next Sabbath.
