Deacon Newton carry’d a Letter from me to Mr. Goodenow — he went also to Mr. Martyns. My wife to old Mr. Rice’s at Widow Newtons — I went to her at Eve. At Eve Ebenezer here and brings me an Hat which he brought from Mr. Doolittle’s. Had still some further Discourse with Ebenezer about his Circumstances — occasion’d by his own Desire to know how he must be settled. Mr. Israel Walker here in the Evening desirous that I would take Boards of him to pay Thomas for a Saddle, or at least in part.
