1747 March 23 (Monday). Din’d at Mr. Martyns; it being misty and rainy, but p.m. he and I rode to Mr. William Goddards[1] and I bought a pair of Steers of him nigh 4 years old for 34£ old Tenor. I return’d to my own House at Eve.
[1]He lived in that part of Marlborough that later became the town of Berlin.
