August 14, 1727

1727 August 14 (Monday).  I accompanied Mr. Weld as far as into the Mendon Road (beyond Mr. Eams of Hopkinton) he being determined to go to Mr. Dorrs.[1]  I was at Mr. Jonathan Forbes’ where there were not a few Sick.  Mrs. Forbes was not Recovered.  Three of their Daughters had a strong fever and Rebecca Paterson [Paddison?] lay very ill.
