1739 November 6 (Tuesday). Doctor came. Found me with a very bad Sore Throat, my Head on the back part great disorder’d — tottering and pained — Yet he judg’d I was better, and did not bleed me. Mr. Stone visited me and pray’d with us. Several of my Nei[gh]bours here. My Head grew worse and those Disorders were very troublesome. But I had some good Rest nevertheless. Samuel Baker[1] and Molly Lee watch’d.
