1746 January 14 (Tuesday). Our Company prosecuted their Journey to Boston. Sent Thome to Dr. Gotts and Mr. Britons.[1] Dr. Gott came, but my Wife was better. Thanks to God! Neighbour Samuel Hardy came late a.m. to Swingle Flax. P.M. he join’d with a Number that were here to get me some Wood, for Lieutenant Tainter and Neighbour Samuel Harrington were here yesterday while I was absent, and rigg’d up my Sled, and they Two, with Neighbour Hezekiah Pratt (who brought a Team of Oxen), Beriah Rice, and Eleazer Rice, came and got me a Pile of Wood. N.B. Neighbour Sam Hardy join’d them. P.M. At Eve we sent for Suse home from Captain Maynards.
