November 12, 1755

1755 November 12 (Wednesday).  I went over to t’other House in my way to the North End.  Ebenezer was cutting up his Corn: his Brother Thomas and Mr. John Frost help him.  He informs me that my Mare was in an ill Situation on Lords Day Morning, being Cast in her Fetters and a great Rail in between them, and She had lain till She was almost Spent, when he discover’d her.  I rode upon her to visit Mrs. Beeman who is Sick at her son Bruce’s.  I went also to Mr. Martyns, where is my little son John Still.  Call’d to See Ensign Josiah Rice who is still lame in his Foot.  Billy work’d a.m. for Mr. Nurse.  Bright and Pleasant Weather.
