October 4, 1775

1775 October 4 (Wednesday).  Hannah rode with me to See Mrs. Miriam Batherick still Sick.  Mr. Procter and his Wife, Mr. Noah Hardy, Elijah and Edward [Brigham?] dined here.  Mr. Hardy payed me (in old tenor) £74.  [A]ll of what Mr. Martin Pratt, late Constable, was to collect of the [torn] Rates.  Old Mrs. Kelly came with her grand daughter [torn] Beeton, who is under Awakenings and wanted to talk with me.  [torn] Procter and his Wife desire me to read my late Brothers and their [torn] Will, and are dissatisfyed with the scanty provisions [torn] in it for them.
