February 4, 1768

1768 February 4 (Thursday).  Ripen to Result.  Two Gentlemen forementioned Vote nothing after that which passed concerning Mr. B.’s breaking the agreement of March 26.  We compile the Result.  Read it at Evening to the Church and Partys, and a Vast Throng.  I prayed.  In Prayer Time there was a great Knocking.  The Beam which Support the Floor, cracked, and our Land-Lord was obliged to put up a stud to secure it.  Blessed be God for our Safety!  The Church voted Acceptance of our Result.  Mr. Morse also.  Mr. Bush did not.  Mr. Morse made his acknowledgment, and it was accepted by the Church.  Deacon Wood, when the Council adjourned without Day, left us in the Evening to go home if he could.  I lodged as I was wont.
