(seq. 50)

Said he had [bought?] a number of books
out of the late Dr [Imiburt's] Library, &
I found they were so cheap that I
proposed to go down the next morning.

Saturday

To Boston with Prince before breakfast.
To [Imiburt's] library & culled all the
forenoon. I got about 30 & Mr. Gannett
about 40 volumes pretty
cheap. Dined at Boston & made all
possible haste to get to Mr. Adams's
funeral, but we were too late.
He was handsomely buried & his
widow put in mourning by the town.
Slept at Parker's where we spent
a late evening.

Sunday, Sept. 20.

Preached all day at Waltham. Mr.
Cushing did not return from Little-Cambridge
before I left his house,
which [stripped] me of the enjoyment
of his company any part of the
time. ------ Called at Mr. Hall's
Watertown. Found that many remained
without affecting Mr. Adams, even
to his death: & thought it would be difficult
for any one to suit all parties.
