1754 March 11 (Monday). Precinct Met for Choice of Officers — No Prayer ask’d. Ebenezer comes at Eve — tells me that Mr. Abraham Smith notwithstanding all his Bargain with me and giving me a Deed of his Place, has actually mortgag’d it to Mr. Aaron Boardman of Boston. He is this Day gone on my sons Mare to See his Father at Sudbury and to return tonight.
