1740 August 11 (Monday). My Wife rode with me to Marlborough. I visited Colonel Woods[1] who was much indispos’d by Hydropic and Asthmatic Disorders. I din’d with Mr. Smith, where also din’d Mr. Cushing and Master Loring. We visited the Colonel after Dinner and were also at the Doctors and at Captain Williams.[2] While we were at the Captain’s a great storm of Rain arose. We rode home in the Evening after the Rain.
