1767 March 10 (Tuesday). Have Mr. Silas Hill’s Horse to go up to Mr. Phinehas Hardys to see his Daughter in Law, Rachel, who languishes. After I had din’d, conversed with her. She seems to be in a good Frame — gives Thanks for Gods distinguishing Goodness to her — for her Birth, Education, the Benefits She had by what I Sometimes dropt in her F’s House, and what She met with at Catechizing etc. She said, She was Sensible it was not likely She Should live; and She thought sometimes, She had rather Go, than continue here. She was very thankful for my Visit, desired me to pray with her; which I did; and She desired I would visit her again while she remained. I called to see old Mrs. Grout — and Moses Brigham, who are confined by their Phthisicks.
