1768 February 13 (Saturday). Young Jonathan Forbes informs that Mr. Kendal dyed last Evening about 8 o’Clock. I was diligently employed in my Study — but the many avocations of this Week prevent my Progress. At Eve came my son Baldwin and with him Alexander, who being nigh out of his Time embraces this Opportunity to come in the sleigh to see us. We are very Short out for Hay. Send my son B’s two Horses to Neighbour Arnold to keep; and he kept them for me. Mr. B. brought Crimson Cloth from Boston, for a Riding Hood for Mrs. P________.
