May 26, 1745

1745 May 26 (Sunday).  On John 17.3 a.m.  After admitting Edwards Whipple and his wife into the Church, I administered the Lords Supper.  N.B. the greatest Part of our Northern Brethren absent, to my great Grief.  P.M. I consider’d the proneness of our Young People to run into great Extravagancys at the Election Time, and for some abatement of their ungodly Mirth I made an Essay on Luke 6.25.
