1775 May 17 (Wednesday). Breck came home this morn, from Cambridge. Arrived about 1/2 after two o’Clock. He relates another Disaster by the accidental going off of a Gun. A Stockbridge man was killed by a fellow soldier. I visited Miss Lois Burnap, who lies at Lt. Bakers, under the unhappiness of a Broken Bone. Mr. Bacon, late Pastor of the old South at Boston, was here and dined. He is riding to Connecticut. By Thomas’s Massachusetts Spy (which John returning from Oxford through Worcester, brings) we have an Account that Ticonderogo was lately taken out of the Hands of [the Regulars?], by Connecticut men.
