June ye 9th.
Uncle Rawson being at the Jail to-day, a Messenger,
who had been sent to the Daughter of Goody Morse,
who is the Wife of one Hate Evil Nutter, on the Cocheco,
to tell her that her Mother did greatlie desire to
see her once more before she was hanged, coming in,
told the condemned Woman that her daughter bade him
say to her, that inasmuch as she had sold herself to the
Devil, she did owe her no further love or service, and
that she could not complain of this, for as she had made
her Bed, soe she must lie. Whereat the old Creature
set up a miserable cry, saying that to have her own
flesh and blood turn against her was more bitter than
Death itself. And she begged Mr. Willard to pray for
her, that her trust in the Lord might not be shaken by
this new Affliction.
