1760 October 20 (Monday). It was my Design to have got in my Corn last Thursday, but Deacon Tainter and Capt. Wood advised to let it alone till this Day; I therefore did so. To Day Mr. Tainter brought a Load of Wood and brought in the Corn from the Island, being 4 Load. Capt. Wood and Mr. Zebulun Rice came in the afternoon and help’d in Cutting it up etc. At Eve came Mr. Grout with his young Horse for me to ride to Ministers Meeting.
