April 21, 1751

1751 April 21 (Sunday).  Cold.  Read Levit. 24.  N.B. had prepar’d more than Sufficient (for quantity) for one Sermon on the Duty of people to their ministers; but thought it not prudent to deliver it till I had finish’d the whole on that head — and therefore after much deliberating and weighing things I concluded it to be best to lay it aside for the present and took some Sermons on living Godly in the Discourse on Tit. 2.12, and deliver’d them, from page 96 to 110 with alterations from Acts 5.20 latter part (both a. and p.m.).  Din’d at Justice Bakers.  P.M. read Acts 15.  N.B. Mr. William Pierce’s young Child (of about 2 months old) well last night after sunsetting, dy’d before Day this morning.
