Diary of John Quincy Adams, volume 2
1787-08-04
The weather was extremely warm, all the forenoon.
Rambled about, upon Mr. Cranch's farm with my cousin.1 In the afternoon, I went into the water with him: towards evening the weather began to grow more comfortable: a letter was brought me, from Mr. Belknap2 in Boston.
