1746 August 17 (Sunday).  On Consideration of the Singular Mercy and Goodness of God to Such a Number of my nearest Neighbours, in Sparing them in the late Engagement against the Indians at No. 4, and not having been able seasonably to finish my propos’d preparations I repeat’d a. and p.m. Sermon on Ps. 68.20.  The widow Woods din’d with us. N.B. Neighbour How and his son Daniel Sick of Fever and Flux.
