1739 June 19 (Tuesday). I rode Mr. Aaron Forbush’s Horse to Grafton to Association leaving Jonathan Rogers to plough and hoe among my Corn. N.B. had Neighbor David Maynard Juniors Horse to plough. As to what was done at Association See Association Records.[1]
[1]The principal business of this meeting seems to have concerned Thomas Axtell of Marlborough, whose conduct had previously been a business of the Association. Despite the opposition of Deacon Keyes, the meeting recommended that the Marlborough Church “extend their compassions towards him, and he having removed his habitation to Grafton, to dismiss him thereto.” Allen, Worcester Association, 12, 19.
