1770 September 13 (Thursday). Rode to Grafton. Dined at Mr. Hutchinsons. Preached his Lecture on Joh. 1.18. Returned at Evening but increased my Cold which I [went up under?]. Elias brought home a Barrell of Cyder from Mr. Beeton. At about 8 o’Clock in the Evening received a Letter from my son Alexander informing me of his Childs being very bad of a Quinzie.
