1755 September 25 (Thursday). I made a Visit to Mr. Seth Rice’s. He was not at Home. He is gone to Dr. Smiths.[1] His Family greatly distress’d for him, being grown worse of late — pain’d in Body as well as discompos’d in Mind. Dr. Smith came there. We rode together to see Lieutenant Stephen Maynard who is Sick of a Fever. His Son Antipas also Sick and the Family in much Trouble. Pray’d with them. N.B. Josiah Lock, of the Same Family, Set out to go to Crown Point.
