December 6, 1755

1755 December 6 (Saturday).  It was very Cold, but having appointed to Change with Mr. Wellman I Set out upon my Journey a.m.  Call’d at Captain Bakers and deliver’d him a Paper containing a brief Memorial to be laid before the Town next Monday, when they are to meet to bring in Town Debts; desiring them to pay Me what they owe Me.  N.B. Captain Baker Said he would use his Best Endeavour to have it Succeed.  I therefore repose my Affair under God in his Care.  Din’d at Mr. Hutchinsons.  Lieutenant Tainter came to me there and din’d with us.  Met Mr. Wellman on the Road from Sutton to Grafton.  I lodg’d at Mr. Wellmans, Lieutenant Tainter at his Sons.
