1773 November 15 (Monday). In returning home I called at Mrs. Martyns and wrote to my son Baldwin at Brookfield, about my Cattle there: also at Ensign Rice’s; at Capt. Maynards but did not see him; at Beetons etc. Dined at home, but presently rode to Mr. Thomas Bonds, who is about to go to Brookfield to drive down Cattle. N.B. Mr. Jacob Snow builds a little House for Breck, and diets with us.
