[Diary entry: 7 March 1760]

Friday Mar. 7th. Fine Morning, but Cloudy Afternoon, wind Southerly.

Put the Poll end Horses into the Plow in the Morng. and the Postilion & hand Horse in the Afternoon but the Ground being well sworded over & very heavy plowing I repented putting them in at all for fear it should give them a Habit of Stopping in the Chariot.
