1755 June 10 (Tuesday). Rody Smith work’d with Billy in hoeing Corn. Mrs. Prentice and with her one Mrs. Logan, gong to Charlestown, call’d here. I perceive they are plung’d very deep into Errors; and Yet Seem exceeding Spiritual, heavenly and Purify’d — at least Mrs. Prentice.[1] ‘Tis Said they are Nicolaitians, and yet Perfectionists. O the infinite Mischief done by such to the Church of God which they profess to have the most fervent Affection to! May God grant ‘em a Discovery of the Evil; and may I and all others be preserv’d from their Mischievous Reveries! My Kinsman Briant call’d here in his Return.
[1]Mrs. Solomon Prentice of Grafton, at other times known as an “immortal.”
