1758 May 3 (Wednesday). The last enlisted and pressed men go to Marlborough to be mustered by Coll. Williams. My son Billy also goes to enlist under Capt. Maynard. N.B. Alexander with his Brothers Steers, and only the help of the little Boys Samuel and John gets out 7 Turns of Muck, though some of them the Cart not full, and perhaps neither of them So full as if the Team was stronger. Miss Patty Dunlop here — dines with us and at Evening carrys away little Sophy to keep her a while.
