Clear. Time as usual. Evening to Jamaica Plains to lecture.

A little snow had fallen during the night but the day was clear and pleasant. At the Office I hardly know how I occupied myself but the time went. Finished my arrears of Diary which will grow upon my hands now and then and corrected my Account books. Home where I went over much of Alcestis. Coins.

At six o’clock Mr. Richard Greenleaf called for me to go to Jamaica Plains where I had been engaged by Mr. Whitney to deliver my Lecture. We reached his house early and after warming ourselves were escorted to the hall, a small building apparently erected for the purpose in which I found a large number of persons among whom were many of my acquaintances. To them I delivered the Lecture which has heretofore been so successful, in quite as animated a manner as before. It appeared to take with them quite as much as it had ever done elsewhere and I received many congratulations. After taking a cup of coffee at Mr. Whitney’s we returned and I got home much fatigued by half past nine.
