1748 April 29 (Friday). I went to Captain Maynard’s and understood that Dr. Joseph Pyncheon[1] was one of the Gentlemen that Kept Fast with us, but he was gone upon his journey homeward. Mr. Martyn came to see me. I went down to the woodland, joining on to Mr. Barns, and Mr. Martyn and Ebenezer with me. I called also my Neighbour Stephen Maynard and we all saw that my marked Tree was cutt down and laid into Mr. Barns’s New Fence. Mr. Martyn dined with us.
[1]The physician of Springfield.
