December 27, 1775

1775 December 27 (Wednesday).  Mr. May having lodged here, was willing to wait upon me to Shrewsbury, that I may see Mrs. Sumner as I have been requested, She being in a low, wasting Condition.  We dined there.  Discoursed with her — prayed with her also.  N.B. Their Daughter Sally was yesterday Sadly wounded and burnt by Ashes and Embers flying up into her Face by means of Water Spilt upon them.  In returning we called at Mrs. Allens where was sister Cushing.  We return at Eve.  Mr. May tarrys to Night also.
