November 28, 1775

1775 November 28 (Tuesday).  Read Mr. Ortons Sermons.  P.M. visit old Mr. Whitney who is Paralytic.  I saw one of the Fits come on, by the turning and twitching of his Mouth and his Eyes, rolling up, to one side (his right), but his whole Body was affected — and he was incapable of any thing, for a Short Space — But then came to; and Seemed rational again.  As I went in, Deacon Warrin of Upton was at Prayer.  After some time of conversing with the Sick, and on the Providences of God, to the Company, they requested me to pray.  I complyed — and endeavoured to improve the Opportunity for Spiritual profit.  Received a Letter from Mr. Bowen, that he has removed to [Mr.?] Taylors (or rather Coll. Taylors) and settles there.  Wrote an Answer the Same Eve.
