November 3, 1776

1776 November 3 (Sunday).  Preached again on 1 Sam. 4, now on v. 22, a. and p.m.  Grafton again destitute: many of the people here.  I could not but Pity their Case; and proposed to the Church and Congregation that I would (if it might be with their Concurrence and Consent) go next Lords Day, God willing, and preach there.  No Objection was made.  A Letter from my son Baldwin at Ticonderoga, dated Oct. 13.
