1767 March 16 (Monday). Town Meeting to build a Work House. They vote it, and to set it by Mr. Warrins. Visit Lt. Bakers Child, which remains bad yet, under her Scald. Mr. Timothy Warrin here, all in Dissatisfaction. At Eve he is here again to ask me whether I Shall be at home tomorrow Evening and to inform me that a Number of Brethren (if I please) will be here then. I sent by Dr. Hawes (whose wife makes us a good Visit) to Squire Whipple, Mr. David Maynard and Mr. Gale, to come tomorrow p.m. sun [one?] Hour high. This affair exercises my Mind. But I desire to wait the Will of God!
