May 7, 1758

1758 May 7 (Sunday).  I had prepared one sermon but could not (well) another.  But it would be needful the Second should immediately follow the first.  And therefore I took the Sermon on Isa. 9.6 and with many Omissions here and there with proper Additions, under Ps. 145.11, former part, from p. 9 to 29 and part of p. 29 formed the Exercises of a. and p.m.  N.B. read a.m. 2 Chron. 9, Luk. 24.  I rejoiced to have Granny Maynard abroad; and to dine with us.
