1742 September 29 (Wednesday). Variety of Company here. Mrs. Whitney of Watertown, Mr. Noah Rices wife[1] of Sutton and others. Mr. Jacob Green of Colchester. Mr. Jonas Morse[2] of Marlborough bought a sow and 4 young Piggs of me. Thomas gathering apples. But my mind was much impressed with the Thoughts of Hopkinton Fast tomorrow. I beg I may in a True Manner rely on God and receive Direction and Help from Him.
