1747 July 7 (Tuesday). We went to the Council at Grafton. Only 3 Churchs came, viz. the Reverend Mr. Lorings, Mr. Goddards[1] and ours. We were entertain’d at Mr. Joseph Rice’s. N.B. Grim and formidable Evils related concerning the Reverend Mr. Prentice’s[2] Conduct towards his Wife and the rest of the Separatists, so lately as last Lords Day Eve — Tore her Gown, Struck them that resisted him etc. But among us to Day he is amicable and Sweet.
