Friday, Feb. 9/19
                              At anchorage.  Cold weather continues. 
                              Little work possible.  The little house for
                              the sick people on shore took fire this
                              afternoon, by a spark that kindled in the
                              roof.  No great harm done.  The Master
                              going ashore, killed five geese, which he
                              distributed among the sick people.  He also
                              found a good deer the savages had killed,
                              having also cut off his horns.  A wolf was
                              eating him.  Cannot conceive how he came
                              there.

Saturday, Feb. 10/20
                              At anchor in harbor.  Getting goods on
                              shore, but sickness makes both Planters and
                              crew shorthanded.  Fetched wood and water.

Sunday, Feb. 11/21
                              At anchor in Plymouth harbor.  Ninth Sunday
                              in this harbor.

Tuesday, Feb. 13/23

Wednesday, Feb. 14/24
                              At anchorage.  More sickness on ship and on
                              shore than at any time, and more deaths. 
                              Rainy, clearing.

     [The sickness and mortality had rapidly increased and was now at its
     height]

Thursday, Feb. 15/25
                              At anchorage.  Northerly wind and frost.

Friday, Feb. 16/26
                              At anchorage.  Northerly wind continues,
                              which continues the frost.  Those from
                              shore reported that one of the Planters,
                              being out fowling and hidden in the reeds,
                              about a mile and a half from the
                              settlement, saw twelve Indians marching
                              toward the plantation and heard many more. 
                              He hurried home with all speed and gave the
                              alarm, so all the people in the woods at
                              work returned and armed themselves, but saw
                              nothing of the Indians.  Captain Standish’s
                              and Francis Cooke’s tools also stolen by
                              Indians in woods.  A great fire toward
                              night seen from the ship, about where the
                              Indians were discovered.
