1673.
Moneth 2 day 13 Moses son to Moses Craft [baptized].
Source:Crafts, James M. Crafts Family, p. 41, lists the first son named Moses as born 8 Aug 1669, died 3 May 1672, and the second son named Moses as born 2 Feb 1673, died 4 Mar 1673. There is no sign of either this birth, nor this death of the second Moses, in VR Roxbury, or the Roxbury Church Records, and it is probably an error based on not understanding the old style dating, or some similar confusion, since it is incompatible with the baptism for the Moses of this page, recorded in both places.
