February 20, 1613

In the morning the wind at west, Blowing verie hard all the day until night. Something cold, freezing verie little, the sun showing her self at times both in the fore noon and after noon but, most parts of the day, close weather.

This morning died one of our men called John Toncks, a mason, a hired man for wages. In the after noone [he was] buried about 4 of the clock.

At 7 of the clock at night it did begin to snow but [it] scarce covered the ground. All this night it hath [been] Freezing verie hard, the wind at north west, which hath made a cream of ice in the little pond and the harbour over by the gallows.
