1769 June 28 (Wednesday). Sarah rides with me in Lt. Bakers Chaise, to the Sorrowful Funeral of Miss Bridget Cushing. We went to Breakfast at Capt. Allens, dined at Mrs. Cushings. Mr. Stone, Morse, Maccarty, Mellen, Sumner and I were Pall-bearers. Mr. Joshua Smith, Lewis Allen, Thaddeus Maccarty and James Curtis, were under bearers. Coll. Ward ranged the people in Procession; which was very great, and mournfull. She having been high in, I suppose, every ones esteem. I was oblig’d [torn] to pray, before the Procession. The Lord forgive what was amiss! And grant us all to be ready also. Mrs. Cushing prayed me to return without Sarah who was not very well, and She could be brought home in the Morning. I complyed.
