February 20, 1745

1745 February 20 (Wednesday).  I rode to Mr. Matthias Rice’s, and to Mr. Thomas Goodenows but neither of them at home, I convers’d a while with the women at each House, and then proceeded to Mr. Allen’s,[1] Mrs. Allen continuing in a Very disquieted, disorder’d State.  I also visited at Captain Eagers to discharge my Duty to both Parents and Children under their Sad Fall, their Daughter Oake having lain in already and got about again.
