attended the Meeting at Herringdan’s

9 miles tho it was not a time of reigning, yet an
instructive Opportunity, Dined with the fami-
-ly where the meeting was held, Lodged at Jeremiah
Smiths over Mud Creek, his Wife a Member
he was one of the first settlers in these parts,
his Cabin remains Covered with bark, the
logs of his house are Chunked but not plastered
I we had pretty good Beds, otherwise I thought
the Openness of the House was a prepa-
-ration to our Lying in the woods, which we
expect shortly to encounter the Land in these parts
mostly flat, a deep rich soil, so that the roads
are mostly wet and heavy, the chief body of
the Timber is Poplar, some of them the
finest I ever saw, Ash, Beech, and Sugar Maple
