1776, May 23: My previous accommodations being too much within Philadelphia’s crowded center, and the excessive heats of the city coming on fast, I endeavored to get lodgings in the skirts of the town where I would have the benefit of freely circulating air. Accordingly I took lodging today in a home built by one Mr. Jacob Graff, in the quiet urban periphery on the southwest corner of 7th & Market Streets . . .
