"14 D. 2 M. 1684 - Mr. J.C., deacon of the church in Charlstown [John Cutler], told me, that his wife having been sick for divers months, was on the 31st of August last seiz'd with the pangs of death; in which being delireous, and asking divers time 'who would go with her, whither she was going?' at length she said, 'Well, my son Robert will go', and addressing her speech thereupon as unto him, she express'd her satisfaction that they should go together. This son of hers was at that time in Barbadoes; and his friends here have since learn'd that he also dy'd there, and this at the very hour when his mother here gave up the ghost; and (which is further odd) not without the like expressions concerning his mother, that his mother had concerning him."
