Journal Entry

June 28, 1849 ~ Thursday

28th Walked to East Thomaston called at John Luce & wrote
a Letter to Mrs W Woodruff in the afternoon we went
up to Mr Peas to hold a Meeting and his own sons rose up &
swore they would not admit of it, they finally ruled the
Hous hold instead of the Father & we had no meeting it seemed
as though the Devil stired up the people in Thomaston as soon
as I went into it I had a long talk with Mr Hilman who
had his mind exercised about preaching I gave him some council
I called upon Mr Colby & Lady which I found to be a Noble
pair I spent the night with Br Luce 10 m
