About 10 o’Clock came Father Loring and Brother Stone. Afterwards Messrs. Goss, Whitney, and [blank] More — a Candidate. P.M. at the Desire of the Ministers I drew up a paper, manifesting our dissatisfaction with the Conduct of the Brethren and People of Bolton. I was employed about this, while the Ministers examined Mr. More. Not hearing him I did not sign the approbation. At Eve, to my Joy, came Mr. Cushing with his Mother. They relate that my dear Daughter Sarah went through a tedious Travail last Friday and Night following and through the Great Goodness of God was delivered of a Son, on the 17th about 4 in the Morning.
