Diary of John Quincy Adams, volume 1
1786-01-31
Began upon the 4th Book of the Cyropaedia. The wind at about noon, shifted to the North West, and grew cold very fast. Assembly Night, and as all the young folks in town were there, I staid at home. Nancy return'd at 12. o'clock from the Assembly.
Finished the Satires.
About 2 months longer, will put an end to my Residence here, and I shall then rejoice for more than one Reason.
