June 1.
Mr.Michael Wigglesworth, the Malden minister, at uncle's house last night.

Mr.Wigglesworth told aunt that he had preached a sermon against the wearing of long hair and other like vanities, which he hoped, with God's blessing, might do good.

It was from Isaiah iii.

16, and so on to the end of the chapter.
