Emma Lines brought a note from Louisa Lines asking me to visit Sarah ("Sally") Lines, her mother in law, which I did this evening. The old woman is very ill.

The old woman seemed very penitent this evening and very thankful to me for going to pray with her. She wished very much to receive the Holy Communion but was afraid I would refuse it to her. Barber Haynes's wife is nursing her.
