1778 July 27 (Monday). Breck goes to Boston. Elias pulls down the old, rotten Encumbrances of Stables which used to stand on my Ground behind the meeting House. P.M. came Capt. Elderkin, and brought with him two Gentlemen from Windham, one his brother Bela, the other Mr. C [ary?]. The last a great Traveller through the Indian [illegible] — Niagara, Detroit Michellemacinack etc. Mr. Joseph Farrar, returning from burying his Mother stops here — and lodges. I am not well.
