JANUARY SUNDAY 2 1887

I went over to hear Wm. Buckley preach this morning instead of going to Dover. His discourse about the faithfulness of God was both interesting and proffitable. Took dinner at unckle Johns with Addam and Nora. Went out this evening to hear our new minister taking Reid with me. The subject of discourse was not very interesting to me, It being to the Masons Annual Sermon. Free Masonry had a big puff from our minister.
