November 13, 1754

1754 November 13 (Wednesday).  After frequent importunate Sollicitations I undertook to draw up Something for Mr. Taylor to make application with to the Church in Bedford: little imagining that it would succeed; yet it did, through the divine Favour, and as we had earnestly requested the Committee from Bedford to return again, So they came and Mr. Taylor having Sign’d the Address to their Church, They freely came in to it, and each of them engag’d to use their best Influence to have it succeed with the Church.  Whereupon we gave Thanks to God, din’d, adjourn’d without Day, and parted with Joy.  I rode to Marlborough and lodg’d there.
