The Diary of Rev. Ebenezer Parkman

Day: August 17, 1756

August 17, 1756

1756 August 17 (Tuesday).  I have taken Sweet Oil and Honey, and it has some what relieved my Throat.  I ventured to ride out in the Chair, my Wife with me, as far as Lt. Forb. and p.m. again we took a ride for the Sake of riding — called at Mr. Nurse’s — and went to the Island, and so home — hope it will prove useful.

Why Don’t the Days Listed in the Diary Entries before Sept. 15, 1752 Correspond to the Days on the Calendar above?

In 1752, Great Britain and the American colonies switched from the Julian Calendar to the Gregorian Calendar, which we use today in a slightly updated form.
