INTRODUCTION.

ON the banks of the Connecticut, twenty miles below its last rapids and forty miles above its mouth, at one of those graceful bends which the river makes while winding through meadows which it beautifies and nourishes, stands the ancient town of Wethersfield, the eldest born* of the many sweet villages which adorn this valley. To this spot, then known as Pyquag, the English colonist first turned his steps in, or prior to, 1635, attracted doubtless by its fertile soil, its pure and navigable waters, and its supposed facilities for internal trade in furs and other traffic with the In dians. And to this spot, one year later, came a portion of that " goodly company" who left the jurisdiction of Massachusetts and their newly acquired homesteads and farms in Watertown, and other settlements in the neighborhood of Boston, in pursuit of territory " further west," where they might " better maintain their ministers," " find larger accommodations for their cattle," and welcome " more of their friends from England" who were suffering for the faith once delivered to the Saints. Among those who voluntarily placed a wilderness of one hundred miles be tween themselves and the settlements on the coast, and whose ashes now repose in the burying ground on which the shadow of the first meeting house fell, we find the names of Nathaniel Foote,f Samuel Boardman, James Boosey, Enoch Buck, Clement Chaplin, Leonard Chester, John Deming, Robert Francis, John

* This is the tradition, and the Rev. Mr. Mix, of Wethersfield, in his manuscripts, says, " Wethersfield is the eldest town on the river." Trumbull's History of Connecticut, Vol I, p. 49.

From the Wethersfield Records it appears, that there was a body of land next east to the home lots on the east side of Broad Street, designated in the first conveyances as " Adven turers Land," and from the proceedings of the Court of Magistrates held at Watertown, [Wethersfield,] September 1, 1636, and November 1, of the same year, that Sargeant Seeley recovered against the town, on an award, (made by Mr. Hooker, Mr. Welles and Mr. Web ster,) " one hundred and fifty bushels of corn," in the right of William Bascome, " as an ad venturer."

From these items, and from the local traditions, it would appear, that a portion of the territory, prior to a distribution of the town among the settlers in 1636, had been appropri ated to themselves by a company of men known as Adventurers, and that the rights of these men were judicially recognized.

Goodrich, William Goodrich, John Hollister, John Nott, John Robbins, John Stoddard, Richard Treat, Thomas Welles, Thomas Wright, and others, names which their descendants, and all the friends of civil and religious freedom, should hold in everlasting re membrance. Some of their descendants, from generation to gene ration, have continued to reside on their ancestral farms, and in the old town,* whilst others early left the mother hive for land "still further west," until some of the same name and lineage are to be found in every State between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Wherever they are to be found, in prosperous or adverse fortune, their hearts still fondly turn to this fountain head of their family on this Continent, all proud to trace back their genealogy to the heroic age of New England, and to this quiet resting place of their fathers on the banks of the beautiful Connecticut. To help all such, who may claim the connexion and lineage of NATHANIEL FOOTE, ONE OF THE FIRST SETTLERS OF WETH- ERSFIELD, to illustrate the spirit and manners of the times in which he lived, to exhibit some of the peculiar trials and suffer ings to which he and his immediate descendants were exposed, and to give brief biographical sketches of several of the name who have left their mark on the age to which they belonged, the following pages are devoted.

To the author, the labor of looking through the dusty and fast perishing records of the past, has carried along with it, its own sweet reward. Every step in his investigations, has been on some fragment of reverend history which has exalted his admiration of the sufferings and services, of the far-sighted policy, the religious devotion, and public spirit of the founders of our little State ; and he will feel amply honored, if his labors shall prove in any measure successful in chiselling deeper the inscriptions on their tomb stones, in rescuing the memory of their virtues from oblivion, and in brightening the links which connect the present generation with the first generation of New England, and thereby infusing a larger spirit of patriotism into the life of to-day. Our researches into the past will fail of their true import, unless the living are instructed by its experience, warned by its trials, and quickened by its example.

INTRODUCTION. V

I. NATHANIEL FOOTE, one of the first settlers of Wethersfield, Connecticut, belongs, not to that class of men who fill a large place in the world's history, because called by some great emergency into positions of power and influence, but to that more meritori ous class of pious and excellent persons, who, born to the great inheritance of labor, walk meekly along the paths of common life, perform every duty, public or private, love and help their fellow men, and act always as if in their Great Task Master's eye. It is to such men that society owes at once, its peace, sta bility and progress, and yet history takes no note of such, and hence

" The world knows nothing of its greatest men."

His business in life was that of agriculture, necessarily the leading pursuit of New England in its early history, when the forests were to be felled, the soil broken up, the seeds of all the grains, and plants and fruits which constitute the food of men and beasts to be sown, and its great staples of commercial ex change supplied. And in every period of society the agricultural population has proved of the highest importance to the wealth, dignity and strength of a State. It is from this class of the popu lation that the city and the village, that commerce and the arts, are ever drawing the bone and muscle of their laborers, am? much of the energy of their directing force. In no other of the leading pursuits of Society are there the same facilities for cultivating bodily energy, and the force and vigor of mind consequent upon a vigorous constitution. The pure air, the rough exposure, the healthful toil, the constant call for thought and reflection, the walk ing with God in the open field, the study of his laws as unfolded in the circuit of the seasons, and in the growth of the seed and ripening of the harvest, the better domestic training under which children can be reared in the country, all these things are favor able for converting the agricultural population into an element of conservatism, much needed to give stability to the ever restless desire of change which animates a young community, and to up hold society in moments of danger and trial. It is the boast of Connecticut, and of Wethersfield in particular, to have had from the beginning a large proportion of intelligent, industrious and pious farmers in her population, and that the ranks of her mer chants, her mechanics, her seamen, and her professional men have

VI INTRODUCTION.

been replenished by contributions drawn from this source. To this she undoubtedly owes her reputation for steady habits, and the domestic peace which has reigned so continuously in her bor ders. To this class of her population Mr. Foote belonged ; he was an intelligent, pious and industrious farmer, and like all of that class of farmers, he was from time to time summoned to the discharge of public trusts by his neighbors and townsmen.

From what part of England Mr. Foote emigrated, or in what year he arrived in this country, is not known. The first mention I find made of his name is in the Records of the Colony of Massa chusetts Bay, in 1633, when he took the oath of freeman. In the " Records of the Grants and Possession of the Lands in Water- town," (in which town Mr. Foote first located himself,) the fol lowing entry is made :

"NATHANIEL FOOTE.

" 1. An homstall of sixteen acres by estimation, bounded ye north & northwest wth ye highway, the south &. southwest wth Jeremiah Norcross, granted to him.

" 2. Two acres of marsh by estimation, bounded ye south w'h ye River, the north w*h Henry Cuttris, the east wth John Firmin, and the west wth John Smith, granted to him."*

Whether Mr. Foote was among the pioneers from Watertown, who made the first lodgment in, or before, 1635, on the banks of the Connecticut at Pyquag, is not known, but his name is found in its first Records, and among those to whom the first distribution of land was made ; and he, therefore, must have shared all the dangers and privations of that long and toilsome journey through the wil derness in 1636, and have encountered all the horrors and trials of the first winter in their new home. And how difficult it is for us, in our comfortable dwellings, or traversing with every means and appliance of comfort, the distance between Wethersfield and Bos ton, in half as many hours as they consumed days, to realize the sufferings of that journey and of that first winter here ! We never can be too thankful that courage and strength was meted out to them in proportion to their trials. For them, the trail of the Indian, too narrow for teams or herds, for them, the un- bridged stream and morass, for them the steep hill, for them the dangers from wild beasts, or from savage men, were not enough to cause them to turn back. It was not 'till winter had come down from the north to lock up the streams, 'till the fire in their

* The orthography of the original record in this and similar quotations is followed.

INTRODUCTION. Vll

temporary lodgments could not keep out the biting cold, 'till famine stared them in the face, that they turned again for food and shelter to the coast ; and when Spring returned, they were again on their way, with their thinned ranks recruited, to com mence anew the work of settlement.

In a few years we find them, with their brethren in Hartford and Windsor, laying the foundations of a Commonwealth in which they aim " to maintain and preserve the liberty and purity of the Gospel of our Lord Jesus," and " to be governed and guided by such laws, rules, orders and decrees as shall be made, ordained and declared" by the General Court, to be appointed by the free men of the Commonwealth. To found a State under any cir cumstances has ever been counted among the great works of great men, but to found a State, in which the equal rights of all men are so well recognized and guarded, in the wilderness, amid the trials of frost and famine, and with daily, hourly, constant ap prehension of assault and butchery from the Savage, is no com mon event in the world's history, and should be ever remembered by those who have enjoyed its protection.

In the original distribution of the lands of the town, as recorded in 1640, Mr. Foote had assigned him a house lot of ten acres on the east side of Broad Street, near the south end of the street. A part of this lot is now owned and occupied by Mr. Levi Warner. Mr. Foote became the owner of several other tracts of land, laying partly in the Great Meadow east of his house lot, and containing in the whole, upwards of four hundred acres. The cultivation of his land constituted his main business, although he was called by his neighbors to participate in the public trusts of the town, and in 1644 was appointed a Delegate to the General Court.

Mr. Foote was married in England, about the year 1615, to Elizabeth Deming, sister of Mr. John Deming, who was one of the first settlers of Wethersfield, and for many years one of the Magistrates of the Colony of Connecticut, and one of the Patentees named in its Charter. His children were all born in England, except perhaps the youngest. Mr. Foote died in 1644, aged about 51 years, and was buried in the ancient burying ground in the rear of the Meeting House, where are gathered together the the ashes of nine generations. He left behind him, surviving, a widow, two sons and five daughters. He left no will. At a

"Mr. Heynes and Mr. Willis are desired to consider of the estate of Nath: ffoote deceased, and to take in what help they please from any of the neighbours to advise how yl may be Disposed of, and to report there apprehensions to the next Court."

This last vote is one of the many evidences which might be quoted from the Records to show the confidence reposed in the leading men of the Colony, and how naturally the people turn to such men for help when public business is to be done, or private affairs even are to be regulated.

Mrs. Foote, the widow of Nathaniel Foote, was married about the year 1646, to " Mr. Thomas Welles, Magistrate," after wards Governor of the Colony, whom she likewise survived. 2

X INTRODUCTION.

Governor Welles died January 14, 16f£, leaving a will. When in life, he gave a good estate to each of his children, ex cept his son John, who settled in Stratford, (Conn.)* Mr. John Welles died before his father, and in his will gave him his son Robert, then a child, to whom Governor Welles, in his will, which is dated November 7, 1659, gave the bulk of the large estate of which he died seized.

In his will, Governor Welles says,

" I desire my loving friends Mr. John Talcott, senior, of Hartford, and Mr. Cotton, Teacher of the Church of Christ at Wethersfield,t to be the Overseers of this will, and give them five pounds a piece out of my estate : and so long as rny loving wife remains a widow, she may enjoy and improve my whole estate, if rny Overseers judge it meet, they discharg ing out of it my just debts, and taking in the debts owing to nae, and maintaining my heir ; [Robert, abovenamed,] and that she may keep the better hospitality."

The calls on the hospitality, not only of those who were wealthy, but of those families which had enjoyed the public honors of the Colony, were numerous, and most cheerfully responded to. To the Clergy, and to persons in official trust or on official busi ness, travelling through the towns, the door was always open, and the hand of charity was never closed to those whom misfor tune or disease had made helpless.

Mrs. Welles died July 28, 1683, aged about 88 years. She left a will which was exhibited to and approved by the " Partic ular Court," August, 1683. The following is a copy of that Instrument :

Xll INTRODUCTION.

II. Within twenty years after the first house was erected within its borders, Wethersfield had attained thrice to the dignity of a Mother Colony, having contributed largely to the settlement of Stamford in 1640 ; toBranford in 1644 ; and to Hadley in 1659. Each of these settlements grew out of a difference of opinion on religious topics, a re-assertion of the right to worship God and to maintain a church organization, according to the Gospel, as understood by them, which brought our fathers to these shores, and sustained them through all the trials and dangers of a pioneer life in the wilderness. Each of these dissensions had an influ ence in scattering the members of Nathaniel Foote's family, and is therefore entitled to a brief notice in these introductory sketches.

Previous to the installation of the Rev- Henry Smith as the first Pastor of the Church at Wethersfield, the Rev. Richard Den- ton, (who accompanied the first settlers,) and Rev. Mr. Pruden, labored with the people, until the former left in 1641, for Rippo- wams, and the latter joined his own Church at Milford. During this period unhappy contentions sprung up in the church and congregation, which the advice of the ministers at Hartford and Windsor failed to soothe and settle. Nor did Mr. Davenport and a delegation of the brethren from New-Haven succeed any bet ter. Failing in the main object of his visit, Mr. Davenport ad vised that one of the parties should retire, and make a new set tlement. Although his advice was not immediately followed by either of the parties, the disputes were partially ended by the withdrawal of a number of the principal inhabitants who coinci ded with Mr. Davenport and his views, and by the purchase of Rippowams, now Stamford, of New-Haven, on the 30th of Octo ber, 1640.* The principal settlers were, Rev. Mr. Denton, Matthew Mitchell, Richard Law, Andrew Ward, Robert Coe and Richard Gildersleave.

The removal of these individuals, though it curbed the turbu lence of the times for a season, and prepared the way for the set-

* I find the following vote, in relation to the purchase, on the Records of the town of Stamford. It was passed in Town Meeting in 1641, and was one of the first acts of the town:

tlement of the Rev. Henry Smith, as the first Pastor of the Church and people, yet it did not restore permanent peace and harmony among them. The precise time of Mr. Smith's installation is unknown, but it is supposed to have been in the Spring of 1641, at which time the Church was regularly organized. After the settlement of Mr. Smith, the old controversy was revived, which resulted in another separation in 1644, and in the settlement of Totocket, the Indian name of Branford. Mr. William Swain* appears to have been the leader of the party who withdrew ; and he, in company with Francis Norton and several others, pur chased a large tract of land of New-Haven, at cost, and commen ced the settlement of Branford, as above stated.

As an illustration of the subject of the difficulties in the Church at Wethersfield, I refer to the following proceedings of the Gen eral and Particular Courts, in relation thereto :

At a General Court, at Hartford, April 5, 1640.

Present, EDWARD HOPKINS, Governor, JOHN HAYNES, Deputy Governor, and the several Magistrates and Deputies.

They are to have liberty to bring in the Records of their Lands until the General Court in Sep tember next."

* Mr. Swaine dwelt on the N. W. corner of High and Fort Streets, being the corner next east of the State Prison.

t In the distribution of the town among the settlers, Mr. Mitchell had allotted to him in the Square on which the Academy now stands a home lot of 3 acres, being the northern most lot of two lots of the same quantity each, lying next north of the highway by which said Square is bounded on the south. He likewise purchased of Robert Seeley his home lot, being the lot situated on the S. W. corner of Broad Street, and the road leading into the meadow. It is not known on which lot he dwelt during his brief sojourn in Wethersfield. Mr. Mitchell was father of Rev. Jonathan Mitchell, successor in the ministry at Cambridge to Rev. Thomas Shepard.

XIV INTRODUCTION.

At a General Court, at Hartford, June 11, 1640.

Present, EDWARD HOPKINS, Governor, JOHN HAYNES, Deputy Governor, and the several Magistrates and Deputies.

" If Mr. Mitchell shall give satisfaction to Mr. Chaplin,* in some public meeting, as part of his censure by acknowledging his fault, in such form and manner as he hath related to this Court, it is referred to the Particular Court to continue or take off his former censure, as they shall see cause.

The said Mr. Mitchell, for undertaking the office of Town Clerk or Recorder, notwith standing his uncapableness of that office, by censure of Court, he is fined to pay to the Country twenty nobles.

That part of the town of Wethersfield which chose the said Mr. Mitchell to office, not withstanding the censure of the Court, are fined to the Country five pounds."

At a Particular Court holden at Hartford, July 2, 1640. Present, EDWARD HOPKINS, Governor, and five Magistrates.

" Mr. Mitchell hath this day returned into Court his acknowledgment to Mr. Chaplin ; and for that, with other considerations for former extraordinary charges which he hath formerly borne for Public Service at the Fort, the Court hath remitted his former censure."!

* Mr. Clement Chaplin, Ruling Elder in the church at Wethersfield, is here meant. He was an educated man, and came into New England in 1634. I find his name on the Rec ords of " The New Town," now Cambridge, (where he had lands allotted to him,) in 1635. He came to Hartford with Mr. Hooker's company, and on or soon after his arrival there, went to Wethersfield, where he continued to reside until his death, the date of which is unknown. He left no issue, and by his will, gave all his estate to his wife, Sarah Chaplin, who returned to England, soon after his decease, where she executed a general power of attorney to "William Parks, of Roxbury, (Mass.,)" in which she calls herself of " Edmonds- bury, in the county of Suffolk, in the kingdom of England, widow and relict of Clement Chaplin, late of Thetford, in the county of Norfolk, in said kingdom, clerk, deceased." By virtue of this power, Mr. Parks, on the 24th of September, 1661, sold and conveyed to Henry Wolcott, of Windsor, several tracts of land with the buildings, situated in Wethers field, and late belonging to Mr. Clement Chaplin, deceased. Mr. Chaplin's house lot con tained 5? acres, and had for its east boundary, "the green," (or Meeting House Square,) and " Rose Lane." The whole extent of the front of the lot is now occupied by the heirs of the late Stephen Chester, Esq deceased, and by Martin Welles, Esq. and has thereon their respective dwelling houses. Mr. Chaplin was appointed Treasurer of the Colony, in 1637. He was likewise the first Secretary. ,

t Matthew Mitchell, came into New-England in 1635, from Halifax, England : on his arrival he located himself in Charleston, (Mass.,) where he spent his first winter : "Remov ing to the Town of Concord, his greater Matters continually became smaller there, his Begin nings were there, consumed by Fire, and some other Losses befel him in the Latter End of that Winter. The next Summer he removed unto Say-brook, and the next Spring unto Weathersfield upon Connecticut River, by which he lost yet more of his Possessions, and plunged himself into other Troubles. Towards the Close of that year he had a Son-in-law Slain by the Pequot Indians ; and the Rest of the Winter they lived in much fear of their Lives from those Barbarians, and many of his Catiel were destroyed, and his Estate unto the Value of some Hundreds of Pounds was damnified. A Shallop, which he sent unto the River's Mouth was taken, and burned by the Pequots, and Three Men in the Vessel slain, in all of whom he was nearly concerned : So that indeed the Pequot Scourge fell more on this Family, than on any other in the Land. Afterward there arose unhappy Differences in the place where he lived, wherein he was an Antagonist against some of the Principal Persons in the place, and hereby he that had hitherto Lived in precious Esteem -with Good Men, wherever he came, (as a Record I have seen, testifies concerning him,) now suffered much in his Esteem among many such Men, as 'tis usual in such Contentions, and he met with many other Injuries : For which causes, he transferred himself, with his Interests, unto Stamford in the Colony of New-Haven. Here his House Barn and Goods were again con sumed by Fire ; and much Internal Distress of Mind accompanied these Humbling Dispen sations. At last, that Most Horrible of Diseases, the Stone, arrested him, and he under went unspeakable Dolours from it, until the year 1645, when he went unto his Rest about the Fifty Fifth Year of his "age."

Jit a General Court holdcn at Hartford, November 10, 1643.

Present, JOHN HAYNKS, Governor,— EDWARD HOPKINS, Lieut. Governor, eight Magistrates and twelve Deputies.

11 Mr. Chaplin* for divulging and setting his hand to a writing called a Declaration, tend ing to the defamation of Mr. Smith, t is fined to pay to the Country, fifteen pounds.

Francis Norton,:}: for setting his hand to the same writing, is fined five pounds.

John Goodrich,^ also, for setting his hand to the said writing, is fined forty shillings.

Mr. Plum, || for preferring a note of divers grievances against Mr. Smith, and failing in proof in the prosecution thereof, is fined ten pounds.

Robert Rose,1T for joining with Mr. Plum therein, is fined forty shillings.

It is concluded that a writing shall be prepared and openly read in the several towns, for the clearing of Mr. Smith, and an Order made of ten pounds fine for whosoever shall be con victed under two witnesses to divulge any the said grievances, to his defamation."

Jit a General Court holden at Hartford, November 24, 1643.

Present, JOHN HAYNKS, Governor, EDWARD HOPKINS, Lieut. Governor, eight Magistrates

and twelve Deputies.

" Whereas many clamours haue been raised and spread through several parts of the coun try, of some indecent proceedings of Mr. Smith, of Wethersfield, both in Church administra tion and in acting in the civil occasions of the town, whereby the peace of the Common wealth was disturbed, which gave occasion to the Court to give liberty to all who had any just grievances, in either kind, against him, to produce them in public, and to appoint a time for hearing and determining the same ; which, accordingly, was attended by several in that town, and many complaints made wherein Mr. Smith was accused, and judged by them to lye under much guilt. But upon a full hearing of all that was alledged by any in maintenance of their accusations, were mistakes, wherein Mr. Smith was wronged by false Reports and unjust surmises. It was, therefore, by unanimous consent of the whole Court, Ordered, for the prevention of ihe further spreading of the said Reports which tend so much to the prejudice of the Public Peace, and appanent of Mr. Smith, that whosoever within the jurisdiction shall hereafter be convicted, by the testimony of two witnesses, to continue or renew any of the former complaints, (most of the said grievances having been, also, formerly heard by the Magistrates and Elders,) wherein he hath been cleared by this Court, shall forfeit to the Country ten pounds for every such offence."

Mr. Smith died in 1648, and was succeeded by Rev. John Russell, jun., who was ordained about the year 1650. But little is known of the ministry of Mr. Smith, as no vestige of a Church Record i,s to be found during his life.

Mr. Russell remained in Wethersfield about nine years. Of his ministry, like that of Mr. Smith, but little is known, especially the early part of it. The latter part of it was a season of con tention and strife.

The settlement of Hadley originated in the sympathy early felt by the minister, Rev. John Russell, jun., and a large major-

XVI INTRODUCTION^

ity of the Church at Wethersfield, in the religious dissensions which had sprung up at Hartford in the Mother Church of the Colony, between the Pastor, Rev. Samuel Stone, (the successor of Rev. Thomas Hooker,) and Mr. William Goodwin,* the Ru ling Elder. During the ministry of the prudent, learned and beloved Hooker, peace reigned in the church, but on his death, differences of opinion began to be entertained by members, as to discipline, baptism and church membership. In these controver sies, Mr. Goodwin took the side of Congregationalism in its strict est sense, against the opinions and practices of his minister, who, it is supposed, leaned more to what is understood to be the Pres byterian view of Church government. As the debates waxed warm, they gradually rent not only the Church at Hartford, but the neighboring churches, and indeed every church in the Colony, into hostile parties. As the breach between the contending par ties at Hartford widened, Mr. Goodwin and his friends, proposed to unite with the church at Wethersfield. To this step the Gen eral Court objected, which probably made Rev. Mr. Russell and his Church more strongly than ever the friends of Mr. Goodwin. Wisely for the peace of the Church and for the more speedy set tlement of New-England, Mr. Goodwin and Mr. Russell and their friends decided to go out from their brethren, and locate anew at a higher point on the river.

Early in the Spring of 1659, all the Members of the Church, with the exception of six, five of whom were not present, voted for a removal. Mr. Russell drew up an Instrument, in the nature of a Covenant, which was signed by himself and thirty of his Church and Congregation. Among the number was Philip Smith, who married Rebecca Foote, daughter of Nathaniel Foote the settler, his father, Samuel Smith, with all his other chil dren, John Dickenson, who married Frances Foote, daughter of Nathaniel Foote aforesaid, and Nathaniel Dickenson his father, with all his other children, and John Russell, senior, (father of the minister, who married for his second wife Dorathy Smith, widow of the Rev. Henry Smith, the predecessor of Rev. Mr. Russell,) with his children by his first wife, and a part of the chil. dren of his second wife, by her first husband. With these prelim inary proceedings, they joined themselves to Mr% Goodwin's party

ows are shut in by upland and mountains, of most diversified surface and outline, and giving life to the whole, with a queenly current, sweeps past the beautiful Connecticut. At no point in its whole course from that " lone lake" in which it has its birth, till its wave mingles with the sea, does it so well deserve the description of the poet,

* Fair, noble, glorious river ! in thy wave The sunniest slopes and sweetest pastures lave, The purest breezes scent thy blooming hills, The gentlest dews drop on thy eddying rills : The young oak greets thee at the water's edge, Wet by the wave though anchored in the ledge. The promontories love thee, and for this Turn their rough cheeks and stay thee for thy kiss."*

But how changed the scene in all of its natural and moral aspects since the axe of the first settlers of Northampton and Hadley rung through the forests, and waving fields of grain and other products of improved agriculture were first mirror'd in the bosom of the Connecticut. Then as far as the eye of the beholder,

There is, likewise, on Mr. Pynchon's Account Book, a very curious account between himself and the Indian Sachem of whom he purchased the Land for " Hadley Towne," rela ting to that purchase. At the foot of the account is the following entry : " So much I engaged to him for his land at Natwotogg, and have paid him all to his own content, in the particulars above s'd. Sept. 1660."

After its organization, the town made one or two additional purchases of land of the native proprietors of the soil.

standing on the summit of Mount Holyoke, one thousand feet above the River, could see, to the North and the South, to the East and the West, embracing a circuit of fifty or sixty miles, was an untouched wilderness, save here and there an Indian hamlet, or clearing where the Indian planted his corn ; and all through the forests, which covered much of the meadow and all of the upland, and darkened the distant mountains, roamed the savage in his war path or his hunting expedition,

" Dark as the frost-nip'd leaves that strew'd the ground The Indian hunter here his shelter found ; Here cut his bow and shaped his arrows true, Here built his wigwam and his bark canoe, Spear'd the quick salmon leaping up the fall, And slew the deer without the rifle ball. Here his young squaw her crad'ling tree would choose, Singing her chaunt to hush her swart pappoose ; Here stain her quills, and string her trinkets rude, And weave her warrior's wampum in the wood. No more shall they thy welcome waters bless, No more their forms thy moonlit banks shall press ; No more be heard from mountain or from grove, His whoop of slaughter, or her song of love."*

An entire race of men have disappeared with their bravery, their rude culture, their religious rites and their horrible butcheries.

Now the eye of the beholder rests on the same outline of hills and mountains, of meadow and River, but the race which has displaced the savage, has filled the whole circuit with the hives of industry, and the triumphs of art, education and religion. The workshop of the mechanic, the factories of the manufacturer, the fields and granaries of the farmer, the school, academy and college edifices, and the spires of more than thirty churches which lead up the thoughts to Heaven, bespeak the presence of a sober, industrious, intelligent, religious, a law-loving and a law- abiding people ; and on no portion of the population, can this encomium be pronounced more deservedly than on the town of Hadley, from its earliest settlement to the present time.

III. The family of Nathaniel Foote, as will be seen from the fol lowing well authenticated narratives, shared largely in the perils and sufferings experienced so generally by the early settlers in the valley of the Connecticut, at the hands of the Indians. In no part of New-England were the Indians so numerous in propor tion to the territory as in this valley, and traditions of the horrors

INTRODUCTION. Xx

of the Indian wars are linked almost with every village through- out its whole extent. For ninety years after the first settlement, there was scarcely an hour in which the inhabitants, especially of the frontier towns, could travel in the forests, work in the fields, worship God in their churches, or lie down in their beds at night, without apprehension of attack from their stealthy and remorse less foe. The fact that the attacks of the Indians were preceded by no note of preparation, gave a sense of insecurity to the mem bers of the family at home, or the heads of the family abroad, which made the real danger, great as it was, more formidable. The blow fell when and where it was least expected. When the Indian seemed most intent on his avocation of hunting or fishing, or in planning some distant expedition, then the farmer in the field would be surprized by an ambuscade, or on his return home find his house in ashes, his wife or children butchered or hurried away into captivity ; or the quiet of his slumbers would be broken by the warhoop, and the darkness of midnight be illumined by the glare of the village on fire. Those were trials of which the present generation can know nothing.

From the Indians who resided in the immediate neighborhood, it does not appear that the infant colony at Wethersfield suffered any wrong. Neither Sowheag, who resided at Mattabesick, and whose jurisdiction extended from below Middletown to Hartford, nor Sequin, the Sagamore of the pleasant meadows of Wethers- field, then called Pyquag, were hostile to the whites. On the other hand, they seemed to have regarded their presence as a pro tection against the exactions and predatory excursions both of the Mohawks and the Pequods, both of which tribes seemed to have exercised the rights of conquest over the Indians of this por tion of the valley. The Pequod, the seat of whose power was on the banks of the Mystic, seemed early to have imbibed a bitter hostility to the whites, as if foreseeing that two distinct races of men, with such varying character and habits, could not together continue to occupy the same territory. As early as 1634, they began the work of murder and pillage, and in 1636, conceived a plan to extirpate, or drive all the English from New-England.

On the 23d of April, 1637, Wethersfield was the scene of one of those Indian tragedies which finally led to the declaration of war against the Pequods and to their utter extinction as a people. A party of this tribe, under the command of Nepaupuck, (who

XX11 INTRODUCTION.

was also called Messatunck,) a subordinate chieftain, surprized the people as they were going into the meadow, killing six men and three women, and taking two young girls prisoners, besides killing twenty cows and doing much other damage. The site of this horrid transaction was a little east of the State Prison, on the Street leading from the dwelling house of the late Frederick Butler, Esq.* and the landing near the meadow gate. The Indians concealed themselves in the bushes on the bank of the River while the laborers were at home at dinner, and awaited their return. On their arrival at the spot before mentioned, they sprang from their ambuscade, and seized eleven, (the others, escaping by flight,) nine of whom were immediately dispatched by the tomahawk. Among the slain were two men by the name of Finch, Abraham and John, who were near neighbors of Na thaniel Foote. The names of the others are unknown. The young girls, one the daughter of William Swaine,f were carried captives to Mystic, where they were spared from death at the earnest intercession of the wife of Mononotto, who, though a savage, was, also, a mother, and felt a mother's love. She in terceded in their behalf, and finally prevailed on her husband to permit her to adopt them as her own children. This well authen ticated act of generosity and maternal love, remarks the author of Hope Leslie, is precious to all those who would accumulate proofs, that the image of God is never quite effaced from the souls of his creatures, and that in their .darkest ignorance and deepest degradation, there are still to be found traits of mercy and benev olence. These will be gathered and treasured in the memory, with that fond feeling with which Mungo Park described himself to have culled and cherished in his bosom, the single flower that bloomed in his melancholy track over the African desert.

" None are all evil, quickening 'round the heart, Some softer feeling will not quite depart."

Every effort was immediately made by their parents and the colony to recover the girls. The only medium of negociation

* This house stands on a lot of land which was the home lot of John Deming, one of the first settlers, and which was acquired by him partly from the town in the original distribu tion of their lands among the settlers, and partly by purchase of Thomas Standish, who acquired his title by the same distribution, and is situated on the south-east corner of " High Street" and the " Way leading into the Meadow."

t William Swaine dwelt on a home lot of 3 acres, situated on the N. W. corner of " High Street" and " Fort Street," being the corner next east of State Pri&on. When he removed from Wethersfield to Branford, he sold the lot with the buildings to Governor Welles, who gave it to his son Samuel, who resided on it until hia death.

with the Pequods, was through the Dutch, who were in possession of Manhadoes. The Dutch governor, receiving intelligence of the circumstances of the two English maids, sent a sloop to Pequod to redeem them by what means soever, though it were with breach of their peace with the Pequods. The sloop offered largely for their ransom ; but nothing would be accepted. So the Dutch, having many Pequods aboard, stayed six of them, (the rest leaped overboard,) and with them redeemed the two maids, who had been well used by the Pequods, and no violence offered them. The Dutch delivered the young women at Saybrook, just before Capt. Mason and his party arrived there,* who were bound from Hartford to the Pequot country, the General Court having, on the first day of May, 1637, declared war against the Pequods, as will appear by the following order :

" The first day of May 1637. Oenrall Corte att Harteford.

" Present, Mr. LUDLOWE, Mr. WELLS, Mr. SWAINE, Mr. STEELE, Mr. PHELPS, Mr. WARDE.

" Comittees : Mr. Whytinge, Mr. Webster, Mr. Willras, Mr. Hull, Mr. Chaplin, Mr. Talcott, Mr. Hosford, Mr. Mychell, Mr. Sherman.

" It is ordered that there shal be an offensive warr agt the Pequoitt."

Having declared war, the Court next resolved to raise an army and supplies for its immediate prosecution. It was ordered that ninety men should be levied out of the three plantations, in the following proportions, Hartford, 42 ; Windsor, 30 ; Wethersfield, 18. Every soldier was directed to carry with him one pound of powder, four pounds of shot, twenty bullets and a light musket. They were directed to take a barrel of powder from the fort at Saybrook.

The supplies, like the men, were apportioned among the plan tations, according to their supposed ability to furnish them. Windsor was ordered to provide sixty bushels of corn, fifty pieces of pork, thirty pounds of rice and four cheeses. Hartford was ordered to furnish eighty-four bushels of corn, three firkins of salt, two firkins of butter, four bushels of oatmeal, two bushels of peas, five hundred pounds offish and two bushels of salt. The proportion of Wethersfield was thirty-six bushels of corn and one bushel of Indian beans. Each plantation was ordered to have

. the corn ground, and one half baked in biscuit. It was, also, further ordered by the General Court ' that there should be furnished one good hogshead of beer for the Captain, minister and sick men ; and if there be only three or four gallons of strong water, two gallons of sack.' And at the same General Court at Hartford, May 1, 1637, " It is ordered yl there shalbe 1 hogg pr'vided att Wythersfeild for the designe in hande, wch is con ceived to be Nathaniell Footes."

Thus equipped and furnished, the troops rendezvoused at Hart ford, on the 10th of May, when a pink, a pinnace and a shallop were in readiness to transport them down the River. Here they were joined by Uncas and about seventy Mohegan and River In dians, who had agreed to accompany them. The command of the whole force was given to Capt. John Mason,* of Windsor. Lieut. Robert Seeley, of Wethersfield, was second in command, and Uncas leader of the Indians, subject, however, to the order of the Commander in Chief. The Rev. Samuel Stone, of Hart ford, was appointed to accompany the little army, as chaplain, and Doct. Thomas Pell, surgeon of the Garrison at Saybrook, in that capacity.

The result of this war, which was in fact the life struggle of the colonists, and especially of those who had made their lodg ments on the River, was the total extirpation of the Pequod na tion, the most sagacious, brave and dreaded tribe among the Indians of New-England. With* all our sympathy for the suffer ings of the early settlers which provoked this conflict, and with all our appreciation of the untold blessings which have followed to us their descendants and to the world, from their signal triumph in this war, we cannot but feel a throb of pity at the fate of this nation.

As it is refreshing amid the heart rending scenes which fill the record of the doings of the Indians, to turn to the generous pity of the wife of Mononotto towards the young captives, as before de scribed, so it is good to remember that the whites in their burn ing thirst for blood, provoked by the barbarities of their Savage foe, did not forget to treat this noble woman with every respect when she and her children fell prisoners into their hands. Her modesty, humanity and good sense are duly commemorated, and

* Capt. Mason removed from Windsor to Saybrook, and from Saybrook to Norwich with Rev Mr. James Fitch and others, and there continued to reside until his death. The title of Captain was considered so appropriately to belong to John Mason, that in speaking of him on one occasion, he is designated on the Records of Windsor, as "The Captain."

the lives of her children were spared, and she was commended to the special care of Governor Winthrop, at Boston, to whom she was sent by the victors. «

The Pequod captain, Nepaupuck, whose cold blooded attrocities at Wethersfield, hastened on the declaration of war against his Tribe, was tried, found guilty and executed at New-Haven, as will appear from the following extracts from the Records of the Court. The Record begins October 26, 1639, the day after the first election of civil officers.

Trial of Jfepaupuck, at Neio-Haven, for the murder of Abraham Finch* of Wether sfield,

October 30, 11337.

" The civil affairs of the plantation being settled as before, by the providence of God, an Indian called Messatunck, alias Nepaupuck, who had been formerly accused to have mur derously shed the blood of some of the English, of his own accord, with a deer's head upon his back, came lo Mr. Eaton's, where by warrant the marshal apprehended and pinioned him ; yet notwithstanding by the subtlety and treachury of another Indian, his companion, he had almost made an escape ; but by the same providence he was again taken, and deliv ered into the magistral*"^ power, and by his order safely kept in the stocks till he might be brought to a due trial. And the Indian who had attempted his escape was whipped by the marshal's deputy.

" Oct. 28th. The Quillipieck Indian sagamore, with divers of his Indians with him, were examined before the magistrate and the deputies for this plantation, concerning Ne paupuck. They generally accused him to have murdered one or more of the English, and that he had cut off some of their hands, and had presented them to Sassacuse the Pequot sachem, boasting that he had killed them with his own hands.

*Mewhebato, a Quillipieck Indian, kinsman to the aforesaid Nepaupuck, coming at the same time to intercede for him, was examined what he knew concerning the murders charged upon the said Nepaupuck. At first he pretended ignorance ; but with a distracted countenance and a trembling manner, being admonished to speak the truth, he did ac knowledge him guilty according to the charge the other Indians had before made.

" All the other Indians withdrawing, Nepaupuck was brought in and examined. He confessed that Nepaupuck was guilty according to the tenor of the former charge, but denied that he was Nepaupuck. Mewhebato being brought in, after some signs of sorrow, charged him to his face that he had assisted the Pequots in murdering the English. This somewhat abated his spirit and boldness. But Wattoone, the son of Carrahoode, a coun cillor to the Quillipieck Indian sagamore, coming in, charged him more particularly that he had killed Abraham Finch, an Englishman, at Wethersfield ; and that he himself, the said Wattoone, stood upon the Island at Wethersfield, and beheld him the said Nepaupuck, now present, acting the said murder. Lastly, the Quillipieck sagamore and the rest of the Indians being called in, to his face affirmed that he was Nepaupuck, and that he had murdered one or more of the English as before.

" Nepaupuck being by the concurrence of the testimony convinced, he confessed that he was the man, namely, Nepaupuck, and boasted he was a great captain, had murdered Abraham Finch, and had his hand in other English blodd. He said he knew he must die, and was not afraid of it, but laid his neck to the mantle-tree of the chimney, desiring that his head might be cut off, or that he might die in any other manner the English should ap point, only he said fire was God, and God was angry with him, therefore he would not fall into his hands. After this he was returned to the stocks, and, as before, a watch ap pointed for his safe custody.

* The man murdered was Abraham Finch, jun., son of Abraham Finch, senior, one of the first settlers. His home lot was situated on the east side of Broad Street, and appears to have been the lot lying next south of that now known by the name of the Stanton lot. According to the Land Records of the town, it contained "thirteen acres, ten acres of which was his father's adventure lands," and lay next east of the home lot. The home lots on Broad Street were, in general, laid forty rods in length, and twelve rods in width. Abraham Finch, jun., is said to have married a daughter of Matthew Mitchell. He left one child only, an infant.

XXVI INTRODUCTION.

"A General Court 29th of October, 1639. A general court being assembled to proceed against the said Indian Nepaupuck, who was then brought to the bar, and being examined as before, at the first he denied that he was that Nepaupuck which had committed those mur ders wherewith he was charged. But when he saw that the Quillipieck sagamore and his Indians did again accuse him to his face, he confessed that he had his hand in the murder of Abraham Finch ; but yet he said there was a Mohauke of that name that had killed more than he.

" Wattoone affirmed to his face that he, the said Nepaupuck, did not only kill Abraham Finch, but was one of them that killed the three men in the boat or shallop on Connecticut River ;* and that there was hut one Nepaupuck, and this was he, and the same that took a child of Mr. Swain's at Wethersfield. Then the said Nepaupuck being asked if he would not confess he deserved to die, he answered it is were<rin. [Well or good.]

u The Court having had such pregnant proof, proceeded to pass sentence upon him ac cording to the nature of the fact, and the rule in that case, He that shed's man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed. Accordingly his head was cut off the next day, and pitched upon a pole in the market place."

The following narratives of Indian atrocities relate particularly to the children and other descendants of Nathaniel Foote, the set tler, and those connected with them by marriage.

Frances Foote, daughter of Nathaniel Foote, the settler, was married to John Dickenson, first of Wethersfield, (Conn.,) after wards of Hadley, (Mass.,) in 1648,f by whom she had a family

of children. Hannah Dickenson, the eldest of the children, was

born at Wethersfield, December 6, 1648, and was married to Samuel Gillett, of Hatfield, September 23, 1668. Mr. Gillett was lost at the " Falls Fight," (the great fight with the Indians at Turner's Falls, on Connecticut River,) May 19, 1676. His widow, Mrs. Hannah Gillett, was afterwards married to Stephen Jennings, of Hatfield, May 15, 1677, and was captured by the Indians and carried to Canada, September 19, 1677. She re turned in 1678. Hence, a daughter born soon after her return, was, very appropriately named " Captivity."

In or soon after the year 1690, Mr. Jennings removed with his family to Brookfield, (Mass.,) a place which "has been famous for Indian inhabitants, Indian wars, and Indian barbarities," where on the 20th of July, 1710, he and five others, being at work in the meadow making hay, were sprung upon suddenly by the Indians,^: and killed.

* Trumbull, Vol. I. p. 76. The shallop is said to have been owned by Matthew Mitchell, and the men killed, his relatives.

t Daniel Dickenson's home lot in Wethersfield was the lot on the south end of the west side of Broad Street, now owned and occupied by George Holmes. His father, Nathaniel Dickenson, dwelt on the home lot next north of the above, which is now owned by the heirs of William Willard, deceased.

t "The last mischief which was done by the Savages in Brookfield, was about the 20th of July, 1710. Six men, viz: Ebenezer Haward, John White, Stephen and Benjamin Jen nings, John Grosvenor and Joseph Kellogg, were making hay in the meadows, when the Indians, who had been watching an opportunity to surprize them, sprung suddenly upon them, dispatched five of them, and took the other, (John White.) prisoner White, spying

His daughter "Captivity," after she grew up to womanhood, became herself a captivator ; inasmuch as she captivated Abijah Bartlett, of Brookfield, to whom she was married : but, as if her fate was mysteriously linked with savage barbarity, he likewise was slain by the Indians, in October, 1708.

Sarah Dickenson, another of the daughters of John Dickenson, was married to Samuel Lane, of Hatfield, (Mass.,) 1677. He died in Sufneld, (Conn.) After his death she was again married to Martin Kellogg,* then of Hatfield, afterwards of Deerfield, and subsequently of Sufneld, by whom she had four children. She was his second wife. His first wife was Anna Hinsdale.

When Deerfield was destroyed by the French and Indians, February 29, 1704, Mr. Kellogg and four of his children, viz : Martin, -born of his first wife, October 26, 1686, and Joseph, born November 8, 1691, Joanna, born February 8, 1693, and Rebec ca, born December 2, 1695, all of his second wife, were cap tured and taken to Canada. Mrs. Kellogg escaped. Epaphras Hoyt, Esq., in his Book entitled " Indian Wars," gives the fol lowing history of this family :

" Among the captives was a family of Kelloggs, whose history is interesting. They were Martin, Joseph. Joanna and Rebecca. Rebecca, the youngest, resided at Cahnawaga, (X. Y.,) until a woman grown, and became extensively acquainted with the language of the Indians in that quarter. She and her two brothers, Martin and Joseph, who also learned the Indian language, were often employed as interpreters, the two latter at Indian treaties. Joseph attended one in that capacity, at Albany, in 1754 ; and accompanying Governor Shirley on the expedition against Oswego the next year, died at Schenectady. Rebecca married a Mr. Benjamin Ashley, and was repeatedly employed as an interpreter by mission aries. In 1757, she accompanied the Rev. Gideon Hawley on a dangerous and tedious tour through the woods to Susquehannah river, on a mission to the Indians in that quarter, and

a small company of our people at some distance, jumped from the Indian that held him and ran to join his friends ; but the Indian fired after him, and wounded him in the thigh, by which he fell ; but soon recovering and running again, he was again fired a' and received his death wound." History of Brookfield, by Rev.Doct. Fiske, Pastor of the third church in that town.

"The six men who in 1710, were killed in the meadows between this place and the South Parish, were buried in the Old Burying Ground, (which is situated about 80 rods southwest of the Meeting House.) The six graves are still discernable in the line next west of Mr. Cornelius White's." Historical Discourse of Rev. Joseph I. Foote, Pastor of the first church of Brookfield, November 27, 1828.

The exact date in which the "mischief" above referred to was done, I find on the Hat- field Records, in the following entry, ''Mr. Stephen Jennings was slain by the Indians, at Brookfield, July 22, 1710."

* Martin Kellogg, born in 1658, was son of Joseph Kellogg, whom I find first at Fanning- ton, (Conn.,) in 1651, among the first settlers of that town, and at Hadley, (Mass.,) in 1662, where he continued to reside until his death. Four children are recorded to have been born to him at Farmington, and a fifth, Martin, above named, though not recorded, is sup posed to have been born in that place. The birth of his next child, Edward, boin October 1, 1660, is recorded on the Records of Boston. The birth of his three next children, the death of his first wife, Joanna, which took place September 14, 1666, his marriage to Abigail Terry, daughter of Stephen Terry, sometime of Hadley, and sister of John Terry, of Simsbury, (Conn.,) May 9, 1667, and the birth of nine children by this marriage, are all of Record in Hadley.

died at one of their towns the same year. Martin was several times captured by the In dians, and conveyed to Canada, and afterwards bore a captain's commission. He was re markable for bodily strength, and firmness of mind ; and many exploits of his early life, are related. Mr. Sargeant employed him in the Hollis School, where his knowledge of the Indian language rendered him eminently useful. He spent the last years of his life, at Newington, (Conn.,) and died about 1758."

Martin Kellogg, son of Martin Kellogg aforesaid, settled in the first Society in Wethersfield, (Conn.,) and, for a season, dwelt on the lot next east of the Congregational meeting house, known as the Latimer place, where he was married to Dorathy Chester, daughter of Stephen Chester, son of John Chester,* and of Sarah his wife, daughter of Governor Thomas Welles, all of the same town, January 13, 1716. Mr. Kellogg subsequently removed with his family to Newington Society, in the same town, where he continued to reside until his death, which, according to a record on the stone at his grave, occurred on the ii 13th of November, 1753, in the 68th year of his age."

Joanna Kellogg, the remaining captive child of Martin Kellogg, senior, through choice, remained among the Indians, and when she grew up, was married to an Indian chief. She died, leaving children. Before her death, she, together with several of her children, visited her half-brother, Martin Kellogg, at Newington ; but could not be induced to take up her residence with him. Her love of the "wild woods," was too strong, and she returned to her Indian home.j"

Elizabeth Foote, daughter of Nathaniel Foote, of Wethersfield, (Conn.,) son of Nathaniel Foote, the settler, was married to Daniel Belden, of Hatfield, (Mass.,) November 10, 16704 They had fourteen children.

" Elizabeth, wife to Daniel Belden ye head of the family, together with Daniel Belden, John Belden and Thankful Belden, their children, were all of them slaine by the enemie, September 16, 1696."$

* John Chester was son of Leonard Chester, one of the first settlers of Wethersfield.

1 1 have this account relating to Joanna Kellogg, from my friend Gen. Martin Kellogg, of Newington, great grandson of Capt. Martin Kellogg, referred to in the account.

The difficulty of retaining in civilized society those who have been so long in captivity as to become accustomed to savage life, was often very great. A singular instance is found in page 240 of the Brookfield Record of Lands. "December 9, 1714, Then granted to Margaret Otice, alias Lebue, one that was a prisoner in Canada, and lately come from thence, forty acres of upland in Brookfield, and twenty acres of meadow ; provided she returns noi again to live in Canada, but tarries in this province or territory, and marries to Capt. Thomas Baker." The proposal was accepted. Capt. Baker was the first representa tive sent from this town to the General Court. Note to Rev. Dr. Fisk's History of Brook- field.

J He was son of William Belden, of Wethersfield, and of Tomasin his wife, and was born November 20, 1648.

" Sept. 16, 1696. The Indians came along from up Green-River to the town, and assaulted Mr. Daniel Belden's house, took Mr. Belden his son Nathaniel and daughter Esther captive, killed his wife and three children, and wounded Samuel* and Abigail, but they recovered, altho' Samuel had a hatchet stuck in his head, and some of his brains came out at the wound."t

" The Indians making an Assault upon Deerfield, in this Present War, they struck a Hatchet some Inches into the Skull of a Boy there, even so deep, that the Boy felt the force of a Wrench used by 'em to get it out. There he lay a long while Weltering in his Blood ; they found him, they Dress'd him ; considerable Quantities of his Brain came out from time to time when they opened the Wound ; yet the Lad recovered, and is now a Living Monument of the Power and Goodness of God."J

On the 17th day of February, 1699, Mr. Daniel Belden afore said was married to Hepzibah Welles, widow of Thomas Welles, Jim., of Hatfield.§ He died in 1691. In 1693, two of the chil dren of Mrs. Welles were slain by the Indians, and her other daughter severely injured.

"June 6, 1693. The Widow Hepzibah Welles' three daughters were knock'd in the head and scalp'd ; two of them died, but the other lived."||

In the desolation which befel Deerfield, by an incursion of the French and Indians, February 29, 170f, Mrs. Welles herself, then Mrs. Belden, together with Rev. Mr. John Williams and his wife and children, and about one hundred and twenty of their neighbors, were by them taken captive and marched for Canada : but, horrible to relate, Mrs. Belden together with Mrs. Williams and several other women, were most cruelly put to death on the way.

" Hepzibah Belden was killed after they went out of town."

" He that took me was unwilling to let me speak with any of the prisoners, as we march'd ; but on the morning of the second day, he being appointed to guard the rear, I was put into the hands of my other master, who permitted me to speak to my wife when I overtook her, and to walk with her to help her in her journey. On the way we discoursed of the happiness of those who had a right to an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens ; and God for a father and friend ; as also that it was our reasonable duty quietly to submit to the will of God, and to say, The will of the Lord be done. My wife told me, her strength of body began to fail, and that I must expect to part with her ; saying, she hoped God would preserve my life and the life of some, if not all our children with us ; and com mended to me, under God, the care of them. She never spake any discontented word as to what had befallen us, but with suitable expressions, justified God in what had befallen us. We soon made an halt, in which time my chief surviving master came up, upon which I was put upon marching with the foremost, and so made to take my last farewell of my dear wife, the desire of my eyes, and companion in many mercies and afflictions. Upon our sep aration from each other, we asked for each other, grace sufficient for what God should call

No sooner had I overcome the difficulty of that ascent, but I was permitted to sit down, and be un- burthened of my pack. I sat pitying those who were behind, and intreated my master to let me go down and help my wife ; but he refused, and would not let me stir from him. I asked each of the prisoners, (as they passed by me,) after her, heard that passing through the abovesaid river, she fell down and was plunged over head and ears in the water ; after which she travelled not far, for at the foot of the mountain, the cruel and blood-thirsty Savage who took her slew her with his hatchet at one stroke, the tidings of which were very awful : and yet such was the hard heartedness of the adversary, that my tears were reckoned to me as a reproach."*

Samuel Foote, of Hatfield, (Mass.,)f was married to Mary Mer- rick, of Springfield, in the same State, in 1671. They had eight children. The mother and two of the three first born children, viz: Nathaniel, born 1672 ; Mary, born July 9, 1674, and Sam- uel born about 1676, are referred to in the Record, of which the following is a copy,

" Goodwife Foote and two children were carried away by the Indians, in ther irruption on Hatfield, September 19, 1677."J

They were all subsequently restored. And the following ar ticle has reference to Samuel Foote, one of the above children.

that the first settlers of Hadley shared in that general belief, in the existence and practices of Witchcraft, which prevailed during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, in every country in Christendom, and a member of Nathaniel Foote's family was in volved in its consequences. Sad and dark as is the records of the trials and executions for the practice of witchcraft which took place principally in the eastern part of Massachusetts, 1692, it furnishes no just ground of reproach to New-England, in general, or any portion of it in particular. ||

INTRODUCTION. XXXI

By witchcraft was understood, at the time of our fathers, a supernatural power of which persons were supposed to obtain possession by entering into an actual, deliberate and formal com pact with Satan. They gave themselves up to him, body and soul ; transferring to him that allegiance and worship which is due only to God ; and Satan on his part agreed to exercise in their favor supernatural powers, and to impart to them a portion of these powers.

This belief that certain persons were endowed with supernat ural power, and that they were assisted by invisible spirits is very ancient, and indeed can be traced in the history of the reli gious sentiment and the religious observances of every people and in every age of the world.

Without attempting in this place to trace the history of witch craft, it is enough here to state that from 1500 to 1700, it was the prevailing belief of the day throughout all Christendom ; and that to oppose it or deny its existence, or to question the justice of the statutes which recognized and punished it as a crime on evidence which would be deemed inadmissible in other cases, was to ex pose one's self to the pains and penalties of heresy, or to the stigma of atheism. Prior to the reign of Henry VIII, witchcraft was dealt with by the ecclesiastical tribunals ; but during the reign of Elizabeth, (1562,) it was recognized as a crime against the State, and punished by standing in the pillory. The crime, how ever, was more minutely described in the statutes of James I, who interested himself particularly in the subject, and published a book entitled, " Dialogues on Demonology," which had great influence in stimulating prosecutions arid promoting executions under the statute. In the preface to his Dialogues, published in 1601, the royal author remarks, " The fearful abounding at this time in this country, of the detestible slaves of the Devil, the witches or enchanters, hath moved me to prepare this treatise, so far as' I can to resolve the doubting hearts of many, both that such assaults of Satan are most certainly practiced, and that the instrument thereof merits most surely to be punished."

Under the statutes many trials and executions occurred at the time and in the very counties of England from which many of

at Salem. Watson, in his Annals of Philadelphia, describes a trial of two Swedish women for witchcraft. The grand-jury, acting according to instructions laid down by William Penn, who presided at the trials, found bills against them, and they were saved only by some technical defect in the instrument.

XXXil INTRODUCTION.

the first settlers of New-England emigrated ; and mingled up with these trials, we find the presence or the authority of many persons much respected and even venerated by our ancestors.

In the counties of Essex and Suffolk, in the years 1644 and 1645, upwards of one hundred convictions took place before a commission at the head of which was Lord Warwick, one of the most intelligent and popular noblemen of England, and with the advice and concurrence of Doct. Calamy, one of the most eminent Puritan divines of that age. Sixteen persons were hanged at Yarmouth ; fifteen in Chelmsford, (from which Rev. Thomas Hooker and other settlers of Hartford and the neighborhood came,) and sixty at various places in the county of Suffolk.

More than three thousand persons were executed for witchcraft in England alone during the century preceding the year 1670, according to Doct. Clark, who states that he had examined the records of the trials.

In Scotland, during the same period, this belief prevailed with most sanguinary results. Thousands of persons, it is stated by Sir Walter Scott in his History of Witchcraft, lost their lives for identically the same practices and on substantially the same kind of evidence which marked the witch trials in New-England. So deeply had the belief in witchcraft become interwoven with the religious faith of the people, that the repeal of the statutes against witchcraft in 1735, gave such offence to a large body of Chris tians in Scotland, that in their annual confession of individual and national sins, they specify " the repeal of these statutes as an offence against the express law of God."

The legal proceedings against persons accused or suspected of practicing witchcraft in New-England, were the same as those prescribed by the statute passed during the reign of James I, and pursued by the many special commissions appointed at different times by the government to investigate cases of this class. The authority of that enlightened Judge, Sir Matthew Hale, who pre sided in the trial of two aged females for witchcraft in 1664, in consequence of which they were convicted and executed, was quoted and followed in the ever memorable trials at Salem in 1692. This trial is remarkable for being the occasion on which not only the conviction of the ignorant on this subject was dis played, but the authority of two of the most learned and intel lectual men of that age was thrown into the scale of the popular

INTRODUCTION. XXXiii

belief. Sir Matthew Hale commanded the respect of all men, of all parties, for his high judicial character and private virtues, in an age in which the piety and integrity of public men was sub jected to the most fiery ordeal. During the progress of the trial, Sir Thomas Browne, an author and physician of high reputation, and who had signalized himself by his book entitled " An Enquiry into Vulgar Errors," was present, and being appealed to by Judge Hale for his opinion on some of the points which had been sub mitted in evidence, particularly as to the fact of a girl, closely muffled, going into fits on being touched by one of the supposed witches, he gave it as his opinion " that the fits were natural, but heightened by the power of the devil, cooperating with the malice of the witches." It is due to Sir Matthew Hale to add, that he was so perplexed himself by the evidence adduced, and so cautious lest his opinion should have a preponderating influ ence on either side, that he refused lo sum up the evidence, but left it all to the jury with prayers, " that the great God of Heaven would direct their hearts in this weighty matter." He told them however "that the Scriptures left no doubt that there was such a thing as witchcraft ; that the laws of England recognized its ex istence and enacted penalties against its practices, and that their business was to consider, first, whether the children were really bewitched, and second, whether the witchcraft was brought home to, the prisoners at the bar."

Sir William Blackstone, the great oracle of British law, so late as 1765, declared in his Commentaries, his belief in witchcraft in the following strong terms : " To deny the possibility, nay, the actual existence of witchcraft and sorcery, is, at once, flatly to contradict the revealed word of God, in various passages, both of the Old and New Testament ; and the thing itself is a truth to which every nation in the world hath, in its turn, borne testimony, either by examples seemingly well attested, or by prohibitory laws, which at least suppose the possibility of commerce with evil spirits."

Sir John Reresby, after giving an account of a poor woman tried for a witch at York, in 1686, and acquitted, as he thought very properly, proceeds to tell us, that, notwithstanding, the sen tinel upon the jail where she was confined, avowed " that he saw a scroll of paper creep from under the prison door, and then change itself first into a monkey, and then into a turkey, which 5

the underkeeper confirmed. This, says Sir John, I have from the mouth of both, and now leave it to be believed, or disbelieved, as the reader may be inclined," where I, also, leave this knotty and interesting subject.

It is not strange that our fathers should have imbibed the spirit of the age in which they lived, or should have brought with them the opinions and practices which prevailed in the towns and coun ties of England from which they emigrated, opinions and prac tices to which the ablest writers, the most enlightened judges, and the most eminent divines of England in that age gave the sanction of their authority. These opinions derived additional confirma tion from the peculiar circumstances of their emigration and set tlement here. They left England when the ancient foundations of Society were broken up, when an established church had been overthrown, when the neck of a king had been brought to the block, and revolutions were taking place which filled the minds of men with strange and gloomy forebodings. They came to this country smarting from persecution, and they came, to use their own expression, " to a howling wilderness among wild men and wild beasts." In the wide, deep and solemn forests which covered the hills, or hung over the roads which connected the scattered settlements, there prowled a race of men whose strange appear ance, cruel customs, and warlike propensities filled the hearts of the old and the young with terror. The conversation of the Indians turned much on the incantations and spells of the Powahs, or wizards, and their own deeds of cruelty to the whites had caused them to be looked upon as possessed of evil spirits. Scarcely a village could be found which could not point to some scene of Indian barbarity, scarcely a family whose past history did not furnish some record of the stealth, the malice, or the ven geance of the savage foe, of dwellings fired at midnight, of fathers murdered in the field at their work, or tomahawked at their own doors, of mothers, wives and children, carried into captivity, or butchered under circumstances of the most refined cruelty. The ill success, too, which attended the efforts of the whites to reclaim the Indian from his savage life, and impart to him a knowledge of the true God, seemed to confirm the opinion, that he was possessed of the devil, and that through him Satan was to carry on an exterminating warfare against the church of God which they had established in the wilderness with incredible suffering and trials.

To return to the promised extract from Cotton Mather, " Mr. Philip Smith,"* who was "murder'd with an hideous Witchcraft," was one of the early settlers of Wethersfield, and was married to Rebecca Foote, daughter of Nathaniel Foote, the settler. He removed to Hadley with Rev. John Russell, jun., in 1659, where he died the 10th of January, 1684. He held a commission of Lieutenant and is designated by that title in the " Record Book of the Hadley Hopkins School, "f in which his death is entered in

* The home lot on which Philip Smith dwelt, during his residence in Wethersfield, was the lot on the west side of Broad Street, now owned and occupied by Samuel Galpin, Esq. It was bought for him by his father, of John Lattimer, who bought it of John Edwards, senior, to whom it was laid out in the division of the town among the settlers. Mr. Smith's father lived on a home lot of three acres which lay next north of the above, and which, together with another lot of the same quantity, next adjoining on the north, originally the home lot of Thomas Kilbourn, one of the first settlers, came afterwards into the possession of de scendants of Leonard Chester, who, likewise, was one of said settlers, and is now owned by Capt. Horace Wells.

t The " Hadley Hopkins School" had its foundation in the bequest of that great and good man, Edward Hopkins, the second Governor of Connecticut, in his last will and testament, dated London, March 7, 1657, which opens in the following solemn manner:

" The sovereign Lord of all creatures giving in evident and strong intimations, of his pleasure to call me out of this transitory life unto himself, it is the desire of me Edward Hopkins to be in a readiness to attend his call in whatsoever hour he cometh, both by leaving my soul in the hands of Jesus, who only gives boldness in that day, and delivers from the wrath to come, and my body to comely burial, according to the discretion of my executors and overseers, and also, by settling my small family, in order, and in pursuance thereof, do thus dispose of the estate the Lord in mercy hath given me."

The following extracts contain the bequest on which the schools called the Hopkins Grammar Schools at Hartford and New-Haven were founded :

" And the residue of my estate there, [in New-England] I do hereby give and bequeath to my father, Theophilus Eaton, Esq., Mr. John Davenport,"_Mr. John Cullick and Mr. William Goodwin, in full assurance of their trust and faithfulness in disposing of it according to the true intent and purpose of me the said Edward Hopkins, which is to give some encourage ment in those foreign plantations for the breeding up of hopeful youths both at the Gram mar School and College, for the public service of the country in future times."

" My farther mind and will is, that within six months after the decease of my wife, five hundred pounds be made over into New-England, according to the advice of my loving friends, Major Robert Tompson and Mr. Francis Willoughby, and conveyed into the hands of the trustees before mentioned in farther prosecution of the aforesaid public ends, which, in the simplicity of my heart, are for the upholding and promoting the kingdom of the Lord Jesus Christ in those distant parts of the earth."

The Trustees named in the will, after disposing of the estate, apportioned the funds real ized out of the first bequest, in the following manner, as recorded by Trumbull, Vol. I. page 566.

" The Trustees considering, that by the will of the testator, two of New-Haven were joined by two of Hartford, and that Mr. Hopkins had declared his purpose to further the College intended at New-Haven, they agreed that one half of that estate which should be gathered in, should be paid unto Mr. Davenport for New-Haven, the other half to Captain Cullick and Mr. Goodwin, to be improved for the uses and ends fore noted where they should have power to perform their trust, which, because they would not expect to have at Hartford, they concluded it would be best done by them in that new plantation [HadJey,] unto which sundry of Hartford were to remove, and were now gone ; yet they agreed that out of the whole, .£100 should be given to the college at Cambridge, in the Bay ; the estate being £1,000, as Capt. Cullick [who was the receiver and treasurer thereof,] believed it would be, which we now see cause to doubt."

It appears probable, that when wholly gathered, the trust estate amounted to more than was anticipated, as there was apportioned by the Trustees, to Hartford £400, and to Hadley, " whither sundry of Hartford had gone," £250.

After the death of Mrs. Hopkins, which occurred December, 17,1698, (all the trustees of Gov. Hopkins being then deceased,) the £400 mentioned in the last extract above given, was claimed and secured by Harvard College, on application to the Court of Chancery.

" Mr. Philip Smith, aged about fifty Years, a Son of eminently Vertuous Parents,* a Deacon of the church in Hadley, a Member of the General Court, a Justice in the Countrey Court, a select Man for the Affairs of the Town, a Lieutenant of the Troop, and which crowns all, a Man for Devotion Sanctity, Gravity, and all that was honest, exceeding Exem plary. Such a Man was in the Winter of the Year 1684, murder'd with an hideous Witch craft, that fill'd all those Parts of New-England with Astonishment. He was, by his Office concern'd about relieving the Indigences of a wretched Woman in the Town ; who being dissatisfy'd at some of his just Cares about her, express'd her self unto him in such a manner, that he declar'd himself thenceforward apprehensive of receiving Mischief at her hands. |

"About the Beginning of January he began to be very Faletudinarious, labouring under Pains that seem'd Ischiatick. The Standers by could now see in him one ripening apace for another World, and fill'd with Grace and Joy to an high Degree. He shew'd such Weaned- ness from and Weariness of the World, that he knew not (he said) whether he might pray for his Continuance here : And such assurance he had of the Divine Love unto him, that in Raptures he would cry out, Lord, stay thy hand ; it is enough, it is more than thy frail Servant can bear. But in the midst of these things he still utter'd an hard Suspicion that the ill Woman who had threatened him, had made Impressions with Inchantments upon him. While he remain'd yet of a sound Mind, he very sedately, but very solemnly charg'd his Brother, to look well after him. Tho', he said, he now understood himself, yet he knew not how he might be. But be sure, (said he) to have a care of me, for you shall see strange things. There shall be a Wonder in Hadley ! J shall not be dead, when ''tis thought I am ! He press* d this Charge over and over ; and afterwards became Delirious ; upon which he had a Speech incessant and valuable, and (as was judg'd) in various Languages. He cry'd out, not only of Pains, but also of Pins, tormenting him in several parts of his Body ; and the Attendants found one of them.

" In his Distresses he exclaim'd much upon the Woman aforesaid, and others, as being seen by him in the Room ; and there was divers times both in that Room, and over the whole House, a strong Smell of something like Musk, which once particularly so scented an Apple roasting at the Fire, that it forc'd them to throw it away. Some of the young Men in the Town being out of their Wits at the strange Calamities thus upon one of their most belov'd Neighbors went three or four times to give disturbance unto the Woman thus com-

* Philip Smith was son of Samuel Smith, senior, one of the first settlers of Wethersfield, merchant, and after 1659, of Hadley, (Mass.,) where he died about the beginning of the year 1680.

t As the town of Hadley has grown old, its witches have grown young ; and no unmar ried descendant of Nathaniel Foote in visiting the beautiful village, need fear encountering any such mischief as afflicted Lieutenant Philip Smith. The witches of Hadley of this day and generation,

" are no longer old

And wrinkled beldames, Satan sold,

But young and gay and laughing creatures,

With the heart's sunshine on their features."

plain'dof : And all the while they were disturbing of her, he was at ease, and slept as aweary Man: Yea, these were the only times that they perceiv'd him to take any Sleep in all his Ilness. QaUy-pots of Medicines provided for the sick Man, were unaccountably empty'd : audible Scratchings were made about the Bed, when his Hands and Feet lay wholly still, and were held by others. They beheld Fire sometimes on the Bed ; and when the Beholders began to discourse of it, it vanish'd away. Divers People actually fell something often stir in the Bed, at a considerable distance from the Man : It seem'd as big as a Cat, but they could never grasp it. Several trying to lean on the Bed's head, tho' the sick Man lay wholly still, the Bed would shake so, as to knock their Heads uncomfortably. A very strong Man could not lift the sick Man to make him lie more easily, tho' he apply'd his utmost Strength unto it ; and yet he could go presently and lift a Bed-sted and a Bed, and a Man lying on it, without any Strain to himself at all. Mr. Smith dies : The Jury that view'd his Corpse, found a Swelling on one Breast, his Privities wounded or burn'd, his Back full of Bruises, and sev eral Holes that seern'd made with Awls. After the Opinion of all had pronounced him dead, his Countenance continued as Lively as if he had been Alive ; his Eyes closed as in a Slum ber, and his Nether Jaw not falling down.

" Thus he remain'd from Saturday Morning about Sun rise, till Sabbath-day in the After noon ; when those who took him out of the Bed, found^iim still warm, tho the Season was as cold as had almost been known in any Age : And a New-English Winter does not want for Cold. On the Night following his Countenance was yet fresh as before ; but on Monday morning, they found the Face extreamly tumififd and discolour'd. It was black and blue, and fresh Blood seem'd running down his Cheek upon the Hairs. Divers Noises were also heard in the Room where the Corpse lay ; as the Clattering of Chairs and Stools, whereof no account could be given.

"This was the End of so good a Man.*

" And I could with unquestionable Evidence relate the Tragical Deaths of several Good Men in this Land, attended with such preternatural Circumstances, which have loudly call'd upon us all to work out our own Salvation with Fear and Trembling."]

Lieutenant Philip Smith left a will, which is dated January 5, 1684, five days before his death, and recorded at length on Book I, p. 243, of the Records of the County Court of Hampshire county, (Mass.,) The following is the opening clause of the will :—

" In the year of our Lord one thousand six hundred and eighty-four, on the fifth day of January, I, Philip Smith, of Hadley, in the county of Hampshire, within the jurisdiction of the Massachusetts, in New-England, through God's disposing hand, being ill and weak of body, and know not how soon this frail life may terminate, and yet through Grace, of sound mind and perfect remembrance, do make and ordain this my last will and testament.

" I bequeath and commit this my body and spirit into the hands of my most gracious God and merciful father, as into the hands of a faithful creator who has magnified his mercy and free love towards me in my Lord Jesus Christ, in whom I have redemption through his blood, the forgivness and remission of my sins through the blessed workings of his Holy Spirit, working regeneration, and giving testimony of adoption, who died and arose again, that I who had deserved death might be quickened together with him unto life eternal ; and by his resurrection assuring me of the resurrection of my soul and body ; and so much the more, in that he hath given me my part in the first resurrection, on whom the second death hath no power. And as to my body, I desire it may be committed, (after my death,) to the earth by my Executrix and children, with a comely and Christian burial, stedfastly believing, that though it be sown in corruption, yet it shall be raised in incorruption, and soul and body re-united, to enjoy a full fruition of God himself in heaven, for ever and ever."

* The dwelling house of Lieut. Philip Smith stood on his home lot of eight acres, situa ted on the east side of the Village Street, towards the north end. In his will, Lieut. Smith gave one equal half of this lot with the buildings thereon, to his son Philip, and the other half to another son, both of whom continued tp occupy their portions for several years. By sale and conveyance, the shares subsequently, went into the hands of others, and are now held and occupied, the north half, by Mr. John Jones, and the south half, by Mr. Samuel Bell. The ancient dwelling house standing on the north half of the lot, was built, as near as can be ascertained, about ] 735, by one of the Smith's, probably.

XXXV111 INTRODUCTION.

V. Religion, the church of God with its sabbath and ordinances, its teaching and pastoral ministry, and its active brotherhood, all acting in the liberty and simplicity of the Gospel of Christ, was the chief concern of life, the aim, the animating principle, the bright result of every movement with our fathers. It was not primarily for commerce with its rich prizes, it was not for agri culture with its plenteous harvests, it was not for civil liberty and power, with all its ambitions and excitements, but for all these secondary and incidental to what they conceived to be the true and scriptural idea of the church, that they left their pleas ant homes in England, bfaved the perils of a wintry sea, planted themselves in a howling wilderness, and contended with cold and famine, and a savage foe more terrible than either. In most in stances of settlement, a church was organized, a minister set apart, and provision made for his maintenance, before any remo vals were made, and side by side with their own temporary dwellings ascended the place of worship, rude it is true, but in keeping with their means and situation.

The following is a List of all the settled Ministers of Wethers- field, together with those who preached from time to time to sup ply vacancies.

1. Rev. PETER PRUDEN. He was born at Edgton, in Yorkshire, in 1601 ; was educated for the ministry, and was a preacher in England before coming to New-England. He arrived at Boston on the 26th of July, 1637. On the 30th of March, 1638, he with others sailed for New-Haven, and reached there about the middle of the month, followed by many, " that they might enjoy his pious and fervent ministrations." After exploring the country about New-Haven, Mr. Pruden and his followers decided on settling Wepowaug, the Indian name for Milford. Whilst the negociation for that place was going on, and the people were preparing to remove, Mr. Pruden supplied the pulpit at Wethersfield, and probably re mained in the town till near the time of his installation as Pastor of the church at Milford, which took place, at New-Haven, April 18, 1640. Several of the people of Wethersfield became so attached to Mr. Pruden, that they followed him to Milford, and were among the first and principal settlers of the town. He died in July, 1656, in the 56th year of his age. Mr. Pruden was a distinguished peacemaker and was much beloved and reverenced by his people. " His Death," says the Rev. Cotton Mather, " was felt by the Colony as the Fall of a Pillar, which made the whole Fabric to shake."

[Rev. RICHARD DENTON. He was a preacher in Halifax, England, and came over to New-England between 1630 and 1635. He was among the first Settlers of Wethersfield, but occasionally exercised his profession while in that place. He removed with a part of the church to Rippowoms, (Stamford,) in 1641, and was the first Minister of that place. After remaining in Stamford a few years, Mr. Denton with some of the principal men of the plantation again removed, went to Long-Island, and began the town of Hempstead. He con tinued the minister of that place until his death which occurred in the year 1663. Rev. Doct. Mather, in his Magnalia, thus speaks of Mr. Denton. " First at Wether sfieid, and then at Stamford, his Doctrine drop't as the Rain, his Speech distilled as the Dew, as the small Rain upon the tender Herb, and as the Shoio'rs upon the Grass.'"]

2. Rev. HENRY SMITH. The first notice which we have of him is on the Records of the first church in Charlestown, (Mass.,) where according to an entry therein, himself and Dora- thy his wife were admitted to the full communion of the church on the 5th of the 10th month, 1637. Mr. Smith was the first settled Pastor of the church in Wethersfield. As

near as can be ascertained, he was installed in the Spring of the year 1641, at which time the church was regularly organized. Mr. Smith died in 1648. But little is known of his ministry, as not a vestige of a church record is to be found during his life.*

3. Rev. JOHN RUSSELL, JUN. He was ordained in about the year 1649, and remained in Wethersfield about ten years. In 1659, he with others commenced the settlement of Had- ley, (Mass.) He was the first Pastor of the church in that place, and died December 10, 1692, in the 66th year of his age. He was the son of John Russell, first of Cambridge, (Mass.,) afterwards of Wethersfield, (Conn.,) until 1659, when he removed to Hadley, (Mass.)

4. Rev. JOHN COTTON. He was son of Rev. John Cotton, second minister of the first church in Boston. He preached from 1659, to 1663, and afterwards settled in ihe ministry at Charleston, (S. C.,) where he died September 18, 1699, in the 60th year of his age.

5. Rev. JOSEPH HAYNES. He was the son of John Haynes, the first Governor of Con necticut. He preached two years, 1663, and 1664, and in 1664, was ordained Pastor of the first church in Hartford, and was the fourth Pastor of that church. He died May 14, 1679, aged 38.

6. Rev. THOMAS BUCKINGHAM. " At a Town Meeting, August 15, 1664. It was voted and agreed by the town of Wethersfield, to give Mr. Buckingham 20 shillings per week for a quarter of a year to come, for his help in the ministry." Mr. Buckingham was then residing in Hartford. He preached at Wethersfield a few sabbaths only. He was the son of Mr. Thomas Buckingham, of New-Haven, who in 1639, went thence to Milford, (Conn.,) with the first settlers of that place, and died in Boston, (Mass.,) whither he had gone on business, in 1657. Rev. Thomas Buckingham was born at Milford, in November, 1646, and during his residence in Hartford, was married on the 20th of September, 1666, to Esther Hosmer, daughter of Thomas Hosmer, one of the first settlers of that place. He received a call from the church at Saybrook, and was ordained its Pastor in 1670. He died April 1, 1709, in the 63d year of his age. His nephew, Thomas Buckingham, born March 1, 1671, at Mil- ford, (Conn.,) graduated at Harvard College, 1690, died November 19, 1731, in the 61st year of his age, was second Pastor of the second church in Hartford. He was son of Elder Daniel Buckingham, of Milford.

7. Rev. JONATHAN WILLOUGHBY. He was the son of Francis Willoughby, of Charles- town, (Mass.,) Lieut. Governor of that State. He commenced preaching, on his agree ment to stay one year, on the 26th of September, 1664, and on the same day in the year next following, he signified his desire to remain 'till the latter part of May following, and then to be transported back to the Bay, according to the original stipulation with him, which was performed by the town.

8. Rev. SAMUEL STONE. He was son of Rev. Samuel Stone, second minister of Hartford. He had been previously settled at Simsbury, (Conn.) He preached a short time, and after that was associated with Rev. Gershom Bulckley. Their united ministry continued until the 9th of June, 1669, when Mr. Stone withdrew. Mr. Stone died at Hartford, July 20, 1673, aged about 60 years.

9. Rev. GERSHOM BULCKLEY. He was son of Rev. Peter Bulckley, the first minister of Concord, (Mass.,) and of Grace Bulckley, his second wife, daughter of Sir Richard Chit- wood. He had been Pastor of the church in New-London. Was installed in Wethersfield in 1666. He preached from 1666, to 1677, when being out of health, he solicited a dis mission, which was granted, and relinquished the ministry ; but being in the prime of life, and having previously passed a regular course of surgical and medical studies, he com menced practice, arid soon became one of the most eminent and skillful practitioners in the colony. He died in 1713, aged 78 years. His descendants are numerous in Connecticut, and many of them have been eminent men in their day.

10. Rev. JOSEPH ROWLANDSON. At a Town Meeting, April 7, 1677, the Town invited "Rev. Mr. Rowlandson, lately a minister of the church of Lancaster, in the Bay Colony, to become their minister," which he accepted, and was installed in that year. But his min istry was of short continuance, being finished by his death, which occurred November 24, 1678. He was the son of Thomas Rowlandson, was educated at Harvard College, and graduated in 1652, being the whole class. He went to Lancaster, (Mass.,) in 1664, was ordained there 1660, and continued in the town until it was broken up and destroyed by the Indians, of which destruction, the Rev. Doct. Cotton Mather, in his Magnalia, Book VII. Chap. VI. Sec. 11, gives the following narration. " February 10, 1674. The French from Canada sending Recruits among the Indians for that purpose, the Indians thus Recruited

on Feb. 10, fell upon the Town of Lancaster, where they Burned many Houses, and mur dered and Captivated more than Forty Persons. The Worthy minister of the Town, Mr. Roland.ton, had been at Boston, to Intercede for some speedy Succors ; and though by this Journey from Home he was himself preserved, yet at his return he found his House on Fire, his Goods and Books all burned, and which was worse, his Wife and Children, and Neighbours, in the Hands of the worst Barbarians in the World. This good Man, like David at Ziklag; yet believed, for the Recovery of his Relations out of those horrible Hands, which about Four or Five months after was accomplished with wonderful Dispen sations of Divine Providence, whereof the Gentlewoman herself has given us a Printed Narrative"*

11. Rev. JOHN WOODBRIDGE. He was son of Rev. John Woodbridge, first Minister of Andover, (Mass.,) was graduated at Harvard College, 1664, ordained as Pastor of the church at Killingvvorth, (Conn.,) 1666, and removed to Wethersfield, and was installed Pastor of the church in that place, 1679, and continued such to the time of his death, which occurred in 1691.

" Whiting; of Hartford, Woodbridge, of Wethersfield, Wakeman, of Fail-field" says the Rev. Doct Mather, in his Magnalia, " will never be forgotten, till Connecticut Colony do for get itself and all Religion."

12. Rev. WILLIAM PARTRIDGE. He was son of Col. Samuel Partridge, of Hatfield, (Mass.) and of Mehitabel .his wife, daughter of John Crow, and grand-daughter of Elder William Goodwin, and was born November, 16, 1669. He was educated at Harvard Col lege, and graduated in 1689. For several years previous to his death, Mr. Woodbridge was unable to discharge his ministerial duties, on account of bodily infirmity, and the town pro cured Mr. Partridge to assist him. Mr. Partridge continued in the town from September, 1691, to February, 1693. when the Church and town invited him to settle with them, but he declined the invitation. Of his death, I find the following entry on the Hatfield Records : " William, son of Samuel and Mehitabel Partridge, died at Wallingford, September 24, 1693, being then about twenty-four years, old."

13. Rev. STEPHEN Mix. He was ordained in 1694, and died August 28, 1738, aged 66. He is represented to have been a man of superior talents, piety and influence.! Mr. Mix

* By the Narrative of Mrs. Rowlandson it appears, that at the time of the destruction of Lancaster, the family of Rev. Mr. Rowlandson consisted of his wife, Mary, who was daughter of John White, and children, Joseph, born March 2, 1661, Mary, born 1665, and Sarah, born September 15, 1669 ; that the last named child died from wounds received from the Indians, February 18, 1676, and that Mrs. Rowlandson, with the other children, after a season of intense sufferings for eleven weeks and five days, (that being the time they were with the enemy.) were redeemed by fur\ds furnished by the friends of the family.

t The courtship of Mr. Mix is too amusing to be omitted. It is therefore subjoined. It is taken from the manuscript Collections of Judge Franklin Comstock, late of Wethersfield, deceased.

11 Soon after .his settlement, he (Mr. Mix.) made a journey to Northampton, (Mass.,) 'in search of a wife.' On his arrival at Rev. Mr. Solomon Stoddard's, he made him acquainted with the object of his visit, and informed him that the pressure of duties at home made it necessary that he should proceed with all possible dispatch. Mr. Stoddard immediately took him into the room where his daughters were, and introduced him to Mary, Esther, Chris tiana, Sarah, Rebeckah and Hannah, and retired Mr. Mix lost no time in proceeding to business ; but addressing Mary, the eldest daughter, said he had lately been settled in the Ministry at Wethersfield, and was desirous of obtaining a wife, and concluded by offering her his heart and hand. She, blushingly, replied, that the proposition was as unexpected as it was important, and required lime for consideration. He rejoined, that he was not in sensible of the solemnity of the marriage covenant, and was gratified to discover her un willingness to enter into it, without suitable time for reflection, that in order to give her an opportunity to reflect upon the subject, he would walk into the other room and smoke a pipe of tobacco with her father, and she could report to him. Having smoked his pipe, and sent a message to Mary that he was ready to receive her answer, she came into the room and asked for further time for consideration. He replied that she could reflect longer upon the subject, and communicate her decision by letter, addressed to him at Wethersfield. A few weeks afterwards, he received the following laconic epistle, which concluded the courtship, and prepared the way for the marriage :

" Northampton, 1696. "Rev. Stephen Mix,

" Yes.

Mary Stoddard."

They were married on the 1st of December, 1696.

INTRODUCTION'. xli

was son and youngest child of Thomas Mix, of New-Haven, (Conn.,) and of his wife Re becca, daughter of Capt. Nathaniel Turner, of the same place. He was born November 1, 1672, and educated at Harvard College, where he graduated in 1690. Capt. Turner was of Lynn, (Mass.,) in 1630, and removed thence to New-Haven in 1638 He was lost at sea in Mr. Lamberton's ship, which sailed from New-Haven, in January, 1646, as was, likewise, Thomas Gregson, of the same place, whose daughter Phebe afterwards became the wife of Rev. John Russell, jun., second settled Minister of Wethersfield, and first Minister of Had- ley, (Mass.) She was his third wife, and at the time of her marriage to him was the widow of Rev. John Whiting, dec., third Minister of Hartford.

14. Rev. JAMES LOCKWOOD. He was ordained February 28, 1739, and died July 20, 1772, aged 59, having been 33 years in the ministry. He was a pre-eminent scholar and Minister. He was invited to fill the highest office in the College at New-Haven, (Conn.,) and Princeton, (N. J.,) but his affection for the people of his charge did not permit him to accept. Mr. Lockwood was son of James Lockwood, of Norwalk, (Conn.,) where he was born De cember 20, 1714 ; grandson of Ephraim Lockwood, of the same town, and great-grandson of Robert Lockwood, of Watertown, (Mass.,) in 1634, and who removed early from that town, with his family, to Fairfield, (Conn.,) where he died in or about the year 1658, leaving a will which is dated September 11, of the same year.

Rev. Samuel Lockwood, born November 30, 1721, and died June 18, 1791, who was Pastor of the Congregational church in Andover, (Conn.,) was brother of Rev. James Lockwood.

15. Rev. JOHN MARSH. He was ordained January 12, 1774, and died September 13, 1821, in the 79th year of his age. Mr. Marsh was son of Deacon David Marsh, of Haver- hill, (Mass.,) in which place he was born November 2, 1742. His mother was Mary Moody, daughter of Cutting Moody, of Newbury, (Mass.,) son of Samuel Moody, of that place, whose father, William Moody, according to Farmar, came from Wales, [Tradition,] as early as 1634, was admitted freeman 1635, and after a. short residence in Ipswich, settled in New bury, where he died October 25, 1673. Samuel Moody's wife, to whom he was married November 30, 1657, was Mary Cutting. The character of the Rev. Dr. Marsh was that of an able and faithful servant of his Lord and Master, Jesus Christ.

Mr. William Moody was father of the Rev. Joshua Moody, a famous preacher in Ports mouth, (N. H.,) 1658, (and who while Cranfield was Governor of that State, was by him imprisoned for 1 3 weeks because he did net administer the Lord's Supper after the way of the Church of England, and silenced.) He was likewise ancestor of several other minis ters of his name who were eminent in their day.

16. Rev. CALEB J. TKNNEY. He was a native of Hollis, (N. H.,) and was ordained as Pas tor of the Congregational church in Newport, (R. I.,) Was installed as Colleague with the Rev. Dr. Marsh, March 27, 1816. Left from loss of voice. Died at Northampton, (Mass.,) September 28, 1847, aged 68. He enjoyed a high reputation for great purity and simplici ty of character.

17. Rev. CHARLES J. WARREN, was installed as Colleague with the Rev. Doct. Tenney, July 1, 1835. Dismissed February 1, 1837.

18. Rev. ROBERT SOUTHGATE. He was a native of Portland, (Maine,) and was installed as Colleague with Rev. Doct. Tenney, February 7, 1838, and dismissed November 22, 1843.

19. Rev. Dr. MARK TUCKER, the present respected Pastor. He is a native of Whites- town, (N. Y.,) and was ordained Pastor of the Congregational church in Stillwater, in that State, October 8, 1817. He was installed as Pastor of the church in Wethersfield, October 15, 1845.

Doct. Tucker informs me that his first wife was a descendant of Rev. John Russell, jun., the second ordained Minister of Wethersfield, and first Minister of Hadley, (Mass.,) in the line of his son Samuel Russell, the second Minister of Branford, (Conn.) She was Harriet Lord, daughter of Russell Lord, first of Saybrook, (Conn.,) afterwards of Troy, (N. Y.)

And I mention the fact, as showing a coincidence worthy of being noted in this place, that descendants of the Rev. John Russell, jun., are now found worshipping with the church of which, nearly two hundred years ago, he was Pastor, in the persons of the children of Rev. Dr. Tucker, the present Pastor of the same church, by his first wife.

I think it not improbable, that Russell Lord was a descendant of Thomas Lord, one of the first settlers of Hartford, in the line of his son William, who settled in Saybrook, (Conn.)

Rev. John Russell, jun., married, for his second wife, Rebecca Newbury, daughter of Thomas Newbury, one of the first settlers of Windsor, (Conn.,) (but who died almost imme diately after his arrival at that place.) She was the mother of the Rev. William Russell, the second Minister of Branford.

Xlii INTRODUCTION.

The veneration and regard manifested by the early colonists towards their Minister, ceased not with his death, but was trans ferred to his widow and children, for whose comfort it was almost common law to make suitable provision. The following votes are copied from the Town Records of Wethersfield :

At a Town Meeting, February 22, 1650. " It was voted this day in a lawful Town Meet ing, that the Town would give Mistress Smith* ten pounds a year towards her mainte nance ; and is to be added for the collection of it for her, unto Mr. Russell's rate of fifty pounds ; and his fifty is to be made sixty to pay her ten pounds."

Jit a Town Meeting, October 22, 1650. "It was voted this day in a full Town Meeting, that the Town would give Mistress Smith ten pounds a year towards her maintenance."

Jit a Town Meeting, November 27, 1668. "Voted that Mrs. Rowlandsonf shall have allowed for this present year, Mr. Rowlandson's whole year's rate, and what was formerly promised, which, in all, will amount to six score pounds ; and from henceforth the Town shall allow the said Mrs. Rowlandson, thirty pounds a year so long as she shall remain a widow amongst us."

Jit a, Town Meeting, March 18, 1678-79. "Voted that the Town shall pay three pounds to Mrs. Rowlandson, in the next year's rate, in consideration of defraying the charges of the funeral of the Rev. Mr. Joseph Rowlandson."

Jit a Town Meeting, December 25, 1682. " It was voted by the Town of Wethersfield to give Mr. Woodbridge twenty pounds for the defraying of his extraordinary charges the present year.

Jit a Town Meeting, December 25, 1693. "The Town, by vote, granted to Mrs. Abigail Woodbridge.t for her comfprt and maintenance, the sum of twenty pounds."

Jit a Town Meeting, December 20, 1694. "Voted that the Selectmen shall hire a con venient house for Mrs. Woodbridge for the next year, the rent to be paid by the town."

At a Towm Meeting, March 19, 1695-96. " Voted that the Selectmen be empowered to hire a convenient house upon the town charge, for Mrs. Woodbridge, for the year 1696."

At a Town Meeting, December 27, 1697. "At this Meeting the Town voted to Mrs. Woodbridge the sum of fifteen pounds for her encouragement and maintenance for the present year."

Jit a Town Meeting, July 12, 1698. " At %this Meeting the Town granted unto Mrs. Abigail Woodbridge, twenty pounds."

Jit a Town Meeting, December 29, 1701. "The Town voted twelve pounds to Mrs. Abigail Woodbridge, for her relief and maintenance."

The first Meeting House in Wethersfield, like that in Hartford, was probably built of logs. It stood on the Green or Public Square, a few paces southwestwardly of the site of the present house.

The second Meeting House was a frame building, and was erected on the site of the first, and appears to have been built in 1647, as in the year next following, the town ordered sundry debts contracted for its construction to be paid.

* Dorathy Smith, widow of Rev. Henry Smith. She afterwards married John Russell, senior, father of Rev. John Russell, jun., the successor of Mr. Smith in the ministry, and went with him tolladley, (Mass.,) in 1659.

t Widow of Rev. Joseph Rowlandson, deceased. \ Widow of Rev. John Woodbridge, deceased.

INTRODUCTION.

" To Goodwife Kirkum's husband, for two day's work in the meeting house, 3s. 4rf." "To Goodman Edwards, 30 shillings, for his man sawing of the planks for the seats." "To Joshua Jennings, for setting up the Minister's desk, 20 shillings and one penny." "To Joshua Jennings, the joiner, first payment towards the setting up the seats in the Meeting House, 9 pounds."

" Due for the hinging of the Meeting House, 2 pounds 10 shillings."

In or about the year 1680, the subject of a new Meeting House engrossed the attention of the town. The old one was not only insufficient in size for the accommodation of the inhabitants, but was somewhat dilapidated. Although ail agreed that a larger house had become necessary, yet the people were not united as to the time when it should be built. At length, at a Town Meeting, July 28, 1685, the following "motion" was made and carried :

"Moved, that the present Townsmen shall have power to set up four pillars within the Meeting House, and as many shoars on the outside as shall be needful, at the Town charge."

This vote seems to have united all minds for the speedy con struction of a new house ; for at a Town Meeting August 28, 1685, it was

" Voted and agreed by the inhabitants that there should be a Meeting House built by the town of fifty foot square ; and Capt. Samuel Talcott, Mr. Samuel Wolcott, Mr. Nathaniel Boreman, Serj. John Deming, Serj. John Robbins, Samuel Butler, Mr. John Buttolph, Samuel Hale and Samuel Smith, are chosen a committee to take care about the building and carry ing on the said work."

This house, was constructed on the same green, or square on which the two first had stood, and had the great door of entrance on the east side, the pulpit on the west side, and a door of entrance in the middle both of the north and the south side. The roof was steep, and rose from each side to a point, which was surmounted by a belfry, (in which a bell was suspended,) and a spire, with a vane to indicate the direction of the wind. On each side of the roof the Town voted in May, 1686, to insert " Dorman windows.'3

The new house being completed, at a Town Meeting, January 9, 16*£, it was

" Voted, that the old Meeting House be sold for eight pounds and one shilling, to be paid next year, to Nathaniel Foote, Ensign Robert Welles, Nathaniel Butler and Ebenezer Kil- bourn, who were jointly and severally bound to the town for the payment of said eight pounds and one shilling."

With all their love for the Democratic principle, both in Church and State, our fathers were for doing all things even in the seat ing of the Meeting House, in decency and order, as is shown in the following vote passed in Town Meeting December 9, 1717 :

* I am indebted to Lewis M. Norton, Esq., of Goshen, (Conn.,) descendant of Thomas Norton, one of the first settlers of Guilford, in the same State, for copies, as they appear in this work, of the Family Records of Aaron Norton, of Goshen, who married Martha Foote ; Brewin Baldwin, of the same town, who married Hannah Foote, and Philo Collins, of the same town, who married Olive Foote.

I understand that Mr. Norton has been many years gathering Genealogical Statistics and Family History of the first settlers of Goshen, and their descendants ; and that his compila tions on the subject, cover, in manuscript, 600 pages foolscap. For these labors of love, he is entitled to the regard of the present seneration, and will receive the thanks of many suc ceeding generations of the first settlers of his town.

Mr. Norton is connected by marriage, as will be seen by No. 1333, of descendants, page 136, with the family of Nathaniel Foote, the highest evidence which he could give of his taste and practical good sense ; for wives chosen out of this stock are apt to realize the Portraiture, of the Virtuous Woman, as drawn by the Wise Man, in Proverbs xxxi.

GENEALOGICAL NOTES

OF

PASCO FOOTE,

ONE OF THE EARLY SETTLERS OF SALEM, (MASS.)

In the outset of this investigation, it was supposed that Pasco Foote, of Salem, (Mass.,) was a brother of Nathaniel Foote, of Wethersfield, (Conn.,) but no evidence has come to light to show that they were brothers, or that the two were even descended from the same stock, or common ancestor.

In the following communication, the descendants of Pasco Foote, through Isaac Foote, one of the sons, only, are given. Hon. Caleb Foote is one of these descendants. He was late a Member of the House of Representatives of the Legislature of Massachusetts, and several years a Member of the Executive Council of that State.

"The same Week," in July, 1690, "these Rovers," (the Indians,) "made their Descent, as far as Amesbury, where Captain Foote being Ensnared by them, they Tortured him to Death ; which Disaster of the Captain was an Alarum to the Town, and an Effectual Word of Command, causing 'em to fly out of their Beds into their Garrisons ; otherwise they had all undoubtedly before next Morning slept their last ; their Beds would have been their Graves. However, the Enemy Kill'd Three Persons, Burnt Three Houses, Butcher'd many Cattel ; and so that Scene of the Tragedy being over, away they went." Mather's Magnalia, Book VIL, Art XL

rer, June 10, 1748, settled in Newburyport, in the same State, and died in the West-Indies. My uncle, Caleb Foote, born in Andover, July 6, 1750, settled in Salem, (Mass.,) and remo ved thence or died before my remembrance. My uncle Samuel, born March 2, 1759, set tled in Newburyport, in the same State, and died at sea, unmarried. I was born in New- buryport, October 2, 1775. Samuel, my brother, was born December 13, 1777, and died at sea, October 20, 1799. Joseph, my brother, was born April 5, 1781, and went to the South in 1812, and has not since been heard from.

Ill Notes communicated to the same, by Philip Osgood, Esq., of Amesbury, (Mass.)

From the earliest Records of Amesbury I can obtain, which commence in the year 1686, I find,

Samuel Foote, son to John and Bathsheba Foote, born March 3, 1691. Mehitabel Foote, daughter to John and Bathsheba Foote, born March 30, 1694. John Foote, son to John and Bathsheba Foote, born December 20, 1697.

Pasco Foote, son to Samuel and Dorathy Foote, born March 17, 1711. Theophilus Foote, son of Samuel and Dorathy Foote, born March 2, 1713. Bathsheba Foote, daughter to Sam uel and Dorathy Foote, born April 27, 1717.

Capt. Samuel Foote died July 7, 1690. He is taken to be the Capt. Foote who Cotton Mather says was " Tortur'd to Death by the Indians." Bathsheba, wife to Capt. Samuel Foote, died September 3, 1727.

These are all of the name of Foote recorded in the Book down to 1760, with which date it ends.

William Foote, Robert Foote, James Foote, and Lemuel Foote, all heads of families, are now inhabitants of this town.

There is a Foote living in Newburyport, five miles from this town, who is blind. He is related to the Footes in this place.

IV. Notes communicated to the same by Enoch Foote, Esq., of Haverhill, (Mass.) In Amesbury, I conversed with an aged lady, the widow of Theophilus Foote, jun., who was son to Theophilus Foote, that you have on your Records, who was born March 2, 1713. She says her husband was born in 1746, and died in 1830, 'and that he had four brothers, viz : Chelis, Fasco, Thomas and Samuel. She thinks Chelis settled in New-Hampshire, and Samuel, in the State of Maine.

By all the information I have been able to obtain, I think that Capt. Foote, who was mas sacred by the Indians in 1690, had a son John, and that John had a son Samuel, born about 1690, and that Samuel had sons, Pasco, born in 1711, and Theophilus, born in 1713: That Theophilus had a son Theophilus, born 1746, the husband of the aged lady before mention ed, who had six sons. viz. Ephraim, Lowell, Robert, John, James and William.

I have one son and two daughters, all settled in life. George, my son, resides in Brad ford, (Mass.,) and is a Trader. He was born October 14, 1804.

VIII. Notes communicated to Elial T. Foote, Esq., of New-Haven, by Hon. Caleb Foote, of Salem, (Mass.)

The Probate Records are mingled with others, in the Quarterly Court Records, up to the year 1692. The only references to the name of Foote in Probate entries, are the following:

1671. 4th ino. Isaac Foote presented the last will and testament of his father, Pasco Foote, deceased. By this will, the testator divided his property between his sons, Isaac, Pasco, Samuel, and daughters Elizabeth, Mary and Abigail.

I have just made a thorough examination of our Town Records of Marriages and Deaths, and rind the only references to the name of Foote to be the following :

Isaac Foote and Abigail Ingalls were married the 2d of the 10 mo., 1668. Their son Isaac was born the 4th of 2d mo., 1670, and deceased the latter end of June. Their daugh ter Abigail was born the 21st 9 mo., 1671. Their son Samuel was born April 29, 1673.

Zacharias Foote married Elizabeth Ives, January 5, 1762.

IX. Notes communicated by Elial T. Foote, Esq., of New- Haven, (Conn.)

Of Jeff, or Jeffrey Foote, late of Milford, I have the following relation from Mrs. Sarah B. Foote, of New-Haven, widow of John Foote, late of Milford, and mother of children, mostly residents in New-Haven.

*' My husband's father, Jeff Foote, so called, died before I was born, and when my husband was only three years old. He died at sea, and his wife, whose maiden name was Hepzibah Tyrrel, of Milford, died soon after her husband was lost at sea, and when her second child David was but seven days old. John and David were the only children of Jeffrey and Hepzi bah Foote, and after the death of their parents, they went to live with their grandmother, Mary Tibbals, of Milford, who was a widow woman. She raised John to manhood, when he married informant, Sarah Baldwin, daughter of Isaac Baldwin, of Milford. The other son, David, married Polly Munson, daughter of Daniel Munson, of Milford, who, soon after marriage, removed to Bristol, (Conn..) where, she thinks, he raised a family of eight or nine children. Can give no further information about David, but thinks he was born in August, 1771, and married at about 21 years of age. Mrs. Tibbals often related to informant, that Jeffrey Foote was brought to Milford, when a small boy, as a cabin boy. from Newfoundland, by a Captain Hibbon, of Milford, and followed the seas, sailing with him until he died. He after- terwards went to sea, and was lost with the vessel. Informant says, her husband's mother, (with whom she was well acquainted,) often stated, that Jeff Foote told her that his mother was a widow woman, with a large family of children, residing at Newfoundland, and that it was by consent of his mother that he went on Capt. Hibbon's vessel."

John Foote, son of Jeff and Hepzibah Foote, was born in Milford, (Conn.,) September 24, 1768, and was married to Sarah Baldwin, daughter of Isaac Baldwin, of that town, Sep tember 24, 1788, the day he was 20 years of age. She was born in Milford, March 5, 1772. Mr. John Foote died October 11, 1833, aged 65. They had a numerous family of children, one of whom Joel B. Foote, resides in New-Haven, (Conn.)

David Foote, the other son of Jeff Foote, died at Sidney, in the State of New- York, (where one of bis sons dwells,) November 18, 1838, aged 67. His widow is now, or was lately living in that town.

X. Additional Notes.

I copied the following entry of marriage from the Town Records of marriages, births and deaths, of Killingworth, in this State.

" Pasco Foote and Margaret Stallion married the 30th of November, 1678," and found on the Records of the Hon. Court of Probate for the District of Fairfield, a Record of a Bill of Sale, by way of gift, executed by Edward Stallion, of New-London, (Conn.,) of " one half of my br.igantiAe, called the Edward and Margaret, to Pasco Foote, of the same town, who married my daughter Margaret." It is dated April 7, 1683.

Edward Stallion was an inhabitant of Killingworth from about 1671 to 1679, as appears by the Records of the town. In 1679, March 5, he conveyed his house, home-lot, and other lands in Killingworth, to Augustus Williams, and removed to New-London, in the same State.

The following extract from a letter addressed to the Compiler by Miss F. M. Caulkins, Author of the History of Norwich, and now engaged on a History of New- London, contains some additional facts of interest:

" I have met with the name of Pasco Foote on our early town Records, but the informa tion gleaned from them is very scanty. Only partial glimpses can be obtained of him, and those are from deeds and incidental allusions, with the single exception of his marriage, which is recorded here and agrees with the registry quoted by you. I am at a loss to con ceive why it should have been recorded at Killingworth, as 1 had supposed the event took place here, and that the parties resided here.

Our clerks were no more expert in orthography than others of their age, and I find the name written with the variations of Pasco, Pascor, Pasquo. No autograph is found. He only appears as the son-in-law of Edward Stallion, and is said to be '' of Newfoundland." From circumstances I infer that he was a mariner and trader, passing to and fro, as others did at that period ; for our port had then frequent direct intercourse with that island He is soon lost to our view, and I had supposed that he might have died abroad, or been lost at sea, not long after his marriage. I have found no trace of any child but Isaac, whom his grandfather, Edward Stallion, adopted, and to whom he gave his own name. He is desig nated in deeds of gift from his grandfather, " Isaac, alias Stallion Foote," and is elsewhere alluded to, as simply, Stallion Foote. He sold estate here after 1700.

The relict of Pasco Foote married a Haynes. I infer this from documents wherein Mar garet Haines, or Haynes, is called the daughter of Edward Stallion, and inherits estate from him. Her husband was probably James Haynes, for children of " James and Margaret Haynes," are recorded here, commencing August 1, 1689.

294 GENEALOGICAL NOTES

Edward Stallion's vessel, the " Edward and Margaret," was built here. It is probable that Pasco Foote went sometimes in her as master and supercargo, and the conveyance to him of half the vessel would serve to give him credit abroad. New- London had from 1660 and onwards, an exchange trade with Milford, Norwalk and other ports along the coast to New-York : we can thus approximate to a reason why the bill of sale should have been recorded in Fairfield County. But it must be allowed that the Probate records is rather an out-of-the-way place for such an entry.

I will here add, that Pasco Foote, about the time of his marriage with Margaret Stallion, bought a house in New-London. This was one reason that led me to conclude that he re sided here. I have never found any notice of the sale of the house afterwards."

II. JOHN FOOTK, LATE OF MONTGOMERY COUNTY, (INDIANA,) AND HIS FAMILY.

Notes communicated by Elial T. Foote, Esq., of New-Haven, (Conn.)

John Foote was born in Dublin, Ireland, about the year 1758. In the year 1774, he was, with his widowed mother, on a visit to a relative, in a neighboring seaport, about twelve miles from Dublin, where he was seized by a press-gang, and taken to Scotland, where he was drilled about two years, as a soldier, and then sent to America, under Cornwallis, A. D., 1776, and served under that officer in all his battles, excepting at Yorktown, as he was then sick in the hospital at Charleston, (S. C.)

At the close of the Revolutionary War, he went to North Carolina, being unwilling to remain with the British army. He remained in North Carolina, and resided mostly in Graysonand Rowan Counties, until the year 1800, when he removed to Kentucky.

In the war of 1812, with Great Britain, he volunteered and entered the army, under Gen eral Jackson, and served until peace.

In the year 1819, he removed with his family to the State of Indiana, where he died, in Montgomery County, in February, 1841, aged 83. He was a hardy, athletic man, and all soldier. In his latter days, he used to remark in his ironical manner, that he had served faithfully through two wars, one for the King, and another for his Country, still, in his old age, he received no pension ; whereas many were thus rewarded, who had not done half the service in either.

John Foote had six sons and three daughters, viz :

1. William, born in Grayson County, (N. C.,) 1786. Married to Elizabeth Coil, 1812, and removed to Indiana, in 1818. Is a farmer, living in Montgomery County, (Ind.,) and has 2 sons, , born 1814, and Thomas, born 1820, and six daughters.

2. Philip, born in Grayson County, (N. C.,) 1788. Married Elizabeth Balinger, in Ken tucky, 1818, and had three children, viz: John Wesley, who married in 1841, and has four children, and removed to Texas. William, who married and has children, and lives in Or ange County, (Ind.) Lavinia, who married and removed to Texas.

3. Frank, born 1790, in Rowan County, (N. C.) Married, and lives in Morgan County, (Ind.,) and has one son.

4. Polly. Married Solomon Wilson, and lives in Illinois.

5. Eleanor. Married Ezekiel Trusty, and resides in Morgan County, (Ind.)

GENEALOGICAL NOTES OF RICHARD FOOTE. *295

IV. RICHARD FOOTE, ONF ^r THE EARI/I «ETTLKRS OF VIRGINIA, ASTESTOR op GEN. HEVRV S. FOOTK, OF JACKSON. MISSISSIPPI, A SENATOR IN CONGRESS FROM THE STATK OF MIS SISSIPPI, IN A LKTTKR FROM Gfc.V. FOOTK, TO EblAL T. FOOTE, K»Q., OF NEW-HAVKJf,

(COHM.)

Jackson, Mississippi, February 23, 1846. DEAR SIR :

Your interesting communication, under date of the 30th u!t., reached its destination in due course of mail, and I hasten to respond to it. Accept the offer of my hearty gratitude for the sympathetic regard manifested throughout your epistle. I feel most sensibly, I as sure you, the respect implied in your affectionate letter of inquiry ; and I shall experience not a little chagrin, believe me, if it turns out, after all, that we are not kinsmen, in some degree, either proximate or remote. I regret that it is not in my power to give you that full and authentic statement of genealogical facts which you desire ; and am decidedly grieved at being constrained to apprehend, that a full scrutiny of family history will but tend to show that, though obviously descended from the same British forefathers, we do not stand so nearly related as suggested in your letter. However this may eventuate though, I had no sooner read your letter, than I determined to transmit it to the oldest relative of my name now living.— -Col. William Ha.ywa.rd Foote, of Hay field, near Alexandria (D C.,) he being an elderly gentleman of three score and ten, of high intelligence, of great family pride, and remarkable for his minute and accurate knowledge of genealogical details, I have requested him to address you a letter containing such particulars as he may suppose of a nature inter esting to you ; and I think he will hardly fail to comply with this request, if his present state of health will allow of it.

Meanwhile, from my slender store, I will state one or two facts which I hope may not prove altogether uninteresting. 1 have heard from my father, who died in the year 1817, when I was but thirteen years of age, that the first Foote who came to Virginia, some two hundred years ago, more or less, was a younger brother of an opulent family resident in Truroe, of Cornwall. His name was Richard. His elder brother, whom he left behind him, died after his settlement in Virginia, and thus, by right of primogeniture, he succeeded to the family estates across the waters ; or rather to the titles ; for the estates he never got, neglecting, in season, to take the necessary steps to secure the enjoyment of his right of heirship. However this may be, I have seen various letters from Lord Mansfield, (then Mr. Murray,) to one of the children, or grand-children, I will not be certain which, who was an ancestor of mine, touching a suit then pending about these estates ; which family tradition reports were finally lost by gross neglect, either in client or counsel, or both. This Richard Foote had a large grant, from Lord Fairfax, including much of the most valuable land inclu ded in the Northern neck of Virginia, in connection with three other grantees, Briscoe, (who forfeited his lands as a traitor in the revolutionary war.) Brent, whose descendants are nu merous and distinguished, now in Virginia, Maryland and Louisiana, and Hayvvard, who died some hundred and fifty years ago, in the island of Zante, in the Adriatic sea. The very land I sold when, twenty years ago, 1 left the old dominion, was a part of this ancient grant. Tradition, quite distinct, and fully relied on, assures us, that about the time that our ances tor came from England, a brother of the same name settled in New England ; and we have looked, for many years past, to the New England Foote family, as unquestionably relatives of ours. Tradition, equally distinct, and old letters still extant, assure us. that a sister of the Richard Foote spoken of, married the celebrated republican jurist, Brarlshaw, th« friend of Cromwell, and one of the Judges of Charles I. The portrait of this lady is. I believe, still preserved in Virginia, and was some years ago very highly prized by those who then owned it. How many generations have intervened between the aforesaid Richard and myself. I am. unable to say. My father's name was Richard, born in 1773 : his father's name was George, one of two sons. Richard, his elder brother, and father to the gentleman to whom your letter has been sent for fuller reply, being the other and eldest. Their father's name was Richard, who lived and died on the banks of the Potomac, long before the Revolution, on land now owned by my kinsmen. This Richard, my great-grand-father. had numerous brothers and sisters, the descendants of whom are widely scattered through North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Kentucky and Texas. All of the name whom I have known, h,ive been respectable ; some very distinguished. The late Governor of South Carolina, General Butler, his brother, Judge Butler, now or lately in Congress, from South Carolina, are of this stock.

I have thus given you all I now recollect on the subject. Col. Foote, of Hayfield, will, I hope, write to you fully, and give you, as he has it, our family coat of arms, a matter wholly unimportant, save as illustrative of our family history.

296 GENEALOGICAL NOTES OF RICHARD FOOTE.

NATHANIEL FOOTE.

NATHANIEL FOOTE, son of Nathaniel Foote, and grandson of Nathan iel Foote, the settler, was born at Wethersfield on the 14m of January, 1648. He settled in Hatfield, (Mass.,) and was married to Margaret Bliss, daughter of Nathaniel Bliss, of Springfield, May 2, 1672. After residing in Hatfield two years, he removed to Springfield, where he resided four years. During his residence at Springfield, like almost every householder, he was called into the service of his country against the Indians, and was actively engaged in the bloody and successful attack on their encampment at the falls in Connecticut River, a few miles above Deerfield, since called Turner's Falls, in commemoration of the brave Capt. Turner, who commanded the expedition. From Springfield, Mr. Foote removed to Stratford, where his house lot of one acre was on Main street, directly east of the old burial ground near the present Congregational Church. This lot he conveyed in March, 1680, to Benjamin Lewis, having decided to remove with his family to Branford, where, in February, 1679, he was admitted "a planter" of the town, and a " home lot" was granted to him, " on condition that it should have a tenantable house built upon it within two years, and that he come to settle amongst us, or else the lot to return to the town again." In pursuing his " manifest destiny" to migrate, Mr. Foote conveyed this lot with sundry other lots of which he had become pos sessed, to Jonathan Pitman, of Stratford, and removed to Wethers- field, where he continued to reside till his death, although he had, pre vious to that event, planned another removal to a new settlement begun under his enterprize, at "Jeremy's Farm," since and now called Col chester, on the road from Hartford to New-London. An order author izing a settlement at this place was made by the General Court in Oc tober, 1698, and the new settlement was made to embrace the territory bounded north by Twenty Mile river, south by Lyme, west by Haddam and Middletown, and east and north-east by Lebanon and Norwich. This land was conveyed by Owaneco, Sachem of Mohegan, "for the consideration of love and affection," to Nathaniel Foote, to be distribu ted by him " according to his discretion," exceot fifty acres to be se lected by himself, which he had the privilege of reserving to himself and his heirs forever. The settlement was commenced in 1701, but on account of failing health, Mr. Foote did not remove. He died on the 38

298

APPENDIX.

12th of January, 1703, leaving a widow and nine children,— four sons and five daughters. His widow and four youngest children, three sons and one daughter, subsequently removed to Colchester. Mrs. Foote died the 3d of April, 1745, at trie advanced age of 95 years. The chil dren all married, and settled in the n, ighborhood of each other in the new town.

Although a house carpenter by trade, and as such was employed to repair the Meeting House at Branford, Mr. P'oote, after his return to Wethersfield, appears to have pursued the practice of the Law, his name frequently appearing on the records of the County Court as Attorney in cases before that Court.

Jeremy's Farm belonged to Jeremiah Adams, generally known as Jeremy Adams, one of the first settlers of Hartford, where he resided, and kept a house of entertainment. His Inn stood on Main street, on the ground now occupied by the Flagg House, nearly opposite the Centre Church. From the account bock of John Pynchon, of Spring field,* it appears that Mr. Adams bought his wine by the " butt," and " hogshead,"— an article which has continued to form a staple of con sumption in houses of entertainment, until Temperance Hotels came into fashion. Mr. Adams' Inn was frequented by all the great men of the Colony, although it would appear, from the following vote, copied

from the Town Records of Wether sfield, that strangers found it diffi cult to get accommodations at his house during " Court times," and it is feared that the staid habits of the deputies from the country towns were sadly annoyed by the contents of the '* butt" and " hogshead."

"At a Town Meeting March 11, 1661-62.

"At this meeting it was voted, that the Deputies of the General Court that belong to Wethersfield, shall do what lyeth in their power to procure a license to be granted unto some honest man in Hartford, that is fit for that purpose, to keep a victualling house, besides Jeremiah Adams, that thereby strangers might have entertainment at Court times, and also at other public meetings."

NATHANIEL FOOTE.

NATHANIEL FOOTE,— the eldest son of Nathaniel Foote, the projector of the settlement of Colchester, (Conn.,) and great-grandson of Nathan iel Foote, the settler,— was one of the most active, prominent and use ful men in the new town, having been honored in succession with almost every municipal office in the gift of his fellow citizens. He was School- Master, Surveyor, Committee to lay out Lands, Selectman, Deputy to the General Court, &c. He was first elected Representative to the General Assembly in 1706, and was re-elected for twenty-two success ive sessions. He died on the 20th of August, 1774, aged' 92 years, and his son Nathaniel, who was born May 28th, 1712, and died May 9, 1811, lived to the age of nearly 99 years.

DANIEL FOOTE.

DANIEL FOOTE, born in Simsbury, (Conn.,) April 27, 1724, and son of Daniel Foote, of that town, well sustained some of the remarkable traits in the character of the Foote Family , indomitable perseverance, and a strong propensity to pioneer life. He removed from Simsbury, Wintonbury Parish, (Conn.,) about the year 1764, and located himself in what was once called Hartwood, now Wasmn£ton> m Massachu setts,— cleared away the forests and made a farm : from thence he re moved to Dalton, in the same State, at the loot of Dalton mountain, purchased a tract of land, and brought into cultivation a valuable farm. This farm he subsequently sold to his eldest son Daniel, arid removed to Middlebury, (Ver.,) where he purchased some five or six hundred acres of wild land, on which he built mills, felled the forests, and resided for many years.

At the age of about 80, haying previously lost his wife, Mr. Foote distributed his property at Middlebury among his children ; and about the year 1801. set out to make a new settlement in Canton, in the county of St. Lawrence, State of New-York, then a wilderness, whither his son Stillman had removed a short time previous On his way there, through Montreal, he took the small pox, of which he died a lew days after his arrival at Canton. He was a man of great industry and ener-

§y, and peculiarly fitted for a pioneer in a new country. He could never e contented on a well cultivated farm : there must, be forests to subdue, and new dwellings to erect, or it was no place for him,— and at last died in the woods, and for lack of boards for a coffin, was laid in bark pulled from an elm tree. Most of the sons of Mr. Foote had the same propensity for seeking their fortunes in a new country, and they and their children are now widely scattered throughout the United States.

D. Page 80.

DAN FOOTE, M. D.

Doct. DAN FOOTE was the son of Nathaniel Foote, of Colchester, (Conn.,) and was horn in that place August 16, 1755.

Doct Foote read medicine with Doct. Percival, of East-Haddam, (Conn ) During the war of the Revolution, he was three years in the naval service, as Surgeon. He practised medicine in Pittsfield, (Mass.,) some nine or ten years, and removed from thence to Newberlin, Che- nango county, (N. Y.,) at a very early period in the settlement of this part of this county, and had an extensive practice during his. life, and was much esteemed.

During the first few years of his residence in Newberlin, in common with the few neighbors who had emigrated to this (then) wilderness, his courage, decision and perseverance, were often severely tested by the hardships and conflicts he was compelled to endure.

Notwithstanding his title to the land he had purchased was valid in the law, yet the beasts of the forest, holding a claim by right of discov ery, refused to yield him peaceable possession. Having, however, just had some experience in settling the claims which the British Lion pre tended to have upon the lands and tenements of this country, he thought he could safely and successfully prosecute this matter of dispute with the American Bear.

Accordingly, as neither party seemed disposed to relinquish his claims, and both feeling confident in the justice of their cause, and of their su perior physical force, an appeal to arms was made.

A bear seizing a hog belonging to one of the neighbors of Doct. Foote, the tocsin of war was sounded, and the little band, comprising only three men, Doct. Foote, old Mr. Marvin, and his son Elisha, Spartan like, were ready for the conflict. They took up their line of march in the trail of the bear, and pursued on until they reached the spot where the bear had slain his prize, and made a delicious rneal of his blood. The bear, before the arrival of his pursuers, had still farther retreated up a hill, and his place of rendezvous not being distinctly known by them, they followed on a short distance further and made a halt. A rustling among the leaves was soon heard at a little distance from where they stood. In a moment the bear was in sight. The Doctor at once levelled his piece, and gave him a broadside. A large dog then sprang at the bear, and was instantly overpowered. It soon became evident from the treatment the dog received while prisoner of the bear, that the bear was waging a war of extermination.

Their ammunition exhausted, and but one gun in the company, and the dog suffering pains and penalties worse than those of a Romish In quisition, conspired to create a moment of disagreeable suspense. At length the Doctor mounted the log under which his dog was confined by the bear, and commenced beating him with the breach of his gun, hoping by this manoeuvre, at least to liberate his dog from the very un kind embrace of the hear. But the bear, indignant at such an inter ference, when he was contending with the champion of the canine race, rose in all his brutish majesty, and at one fell swoop brought the Doctor to the ground. The do^, acting on the principle, that discretion is the better part of valor, made good his escape to the house, and was unhes itatingly entered on the list of killed and wounded. While the Doctor was on the ground, being mangled and torn by the bear, Mr. Marvin, the younger, undertook to save the Doctor's life at the risk of his own. He seized the bear, thinking that he could not only separate the bear from the Doctor, but escape himself from being hurt. But no sooner had he touched the animal, than he himself was in the same dangerous situation, the bear having him down,— mangling and tearing his limbs, with, if possible, increased ferocity. While the Doctor was revolving in his mind, their situation and danger, he thought of his little pocket Barlow knife, the only weapon now left with which there was any

APPENDIX . 301

chance of dispatching their more than troublesome antagonist. But before he could get his knife from his pocket and open it, his hands and arms being badly wounded, Mr. Marvin, the elder, seeing his son in such imminent danger, rushed into the arena for his rescue. The father made a pass at the ears of old Bruin, with the expectation of drawing him backwards beyond the reach of his son, and not only relieve his son, but escape himself. It is thought he would have remained a spectator of the tragedy, had it not been for his strong paternal feel ings.

But the bear had been too long the sovereign of the forest to permit such familiarity from an invader of his dominions. He therefore, as quick as thought, turned upon him, and with one blow of his paw felled him to the ground. No sooner had the bear laid him prostrate, than he

g-oceeded to gnaw his head and mangle his limbs, with great cruelty. y this time the Doctor had succeeded in opening his knife, and he walked up to the bear, threw his arm over on the opposite side of him, thinking that as soon as the bear felt the thrust of his knife, he would wheel around in an opposite direction from him. The Doctor stabbed the bear twice over the region of the heart, when he turned suddenly round as was anticipated, and set off in a tangent for the swamp at the foot of the hill, mortally wounded. Just at the moment the bear started to leave the field of action, he met a Mr. Franklin, who had been sent by the wives of Doct. Foote and Mr. Marvin, as a kind of reinforcement to their husbands.

The moment Franklin came in sight of the bear, supposing the bear in purs it of him, he wheeled and took to his heels down the hill, run ning with the speed of the wind. Upon looking back, after coming in sight of the women, he then for the first time ascertained that the bear was not, and neither had been in pursuit of him, but was making his way, with all necessary speed, to the swamp, to slake his thirst, crea ted by loss of blood. Franklin came up to where the women stood, and on their anxious inquiry after the fate of their husbands and son, Franklin faintly ejaculated " Dead ! all dead !"— " Go call Elder Camp," they quickly rejoined. Franklin, somewhat recovered from his fatigue and fright, started off. Upon arriving at the bank of the Unadilla, opposite to Elder Camp's house, he screamed at the top of his voice,—" Elder Camp ! Elder Camp !" On hearing such unearthly cries, the Elder hurried out of his house and asked " What 's warned?'5 " There are four men dead," replied Franklin. " Four men dead," echoes the Elder,—" Who are they ?" " They are," says Franklin, in a piteous tone, "Doctor Foote, old Mr. Marvin, his son Elisha, and myself! all are dead, and gone !"

MRS. ELIZABETH HUNTINGTOJV.

Died at Lyme, (Conn., ) on the 25th of October, 1845, Mrs. ELIZABETH HUNTINGTON, relict of the late Rev. David Huatington, in the 96th year of her age.

Seldom are we called upon to record the death of one so far advanced in life, and at the same time so ripe in those graces which constitute the character of a Christian. The deceased died at a good old age, full of faith, and with an unshaken hope of a blessed immortality. She became a professor of the religion of Jesus at an early age, and few have main tained that steadfastness and uniformity in their Christian character and deportment as did the deceased ; apparently but few clouds passed be fore her to shut her out from sweet communion with the Father of her spirit. She was naturally possessed of a strong mind and very retentive memory, both of which had been strengthened by culture, and which rendered her very useful in the circle in which she moved, to pour forth words of consolation into the dejected soul, to encourage and strengthen

302 APPENDIX.

the weak believer, and to give instruction to the ignorant, and also to animate and quicken those who had been long in the field of Christian warfare. During the last years of her useful life, her mind seemed to be absorbed in meditating upon heaven and divine things. We trust she has gone to unite with her husband and son, (the late Rev. Leveritt J. F. Huntington, of New-Brunswick, N. J.,) in singing the song of Moses and the Lamb, where her fond anticipations will all be realized in the bosom of her Saviour arid her God.

A mother in Israel is gone, And many dear ties are now riven ; We're left her departure to mourn, And trust she 's rejoicing in heaven.

HON. ISAAC FOOTE.

Hon. ISAAC FOOTE, of Smyrna, Chenango County, (N. Y..) was the son of Daniel Foote, of Colchester, (Conn.,) where he was born on the 4th of January, 1746. In the common schools of that town, and in his early Puritan home, he received that sound, but plain, elementary in struction, and that religious training which fitted him for a long life of Sactical usefulness, of strict integrity and the most consistent piety, e resided in Colchester until May, 1768, when he removed to Stafford, (Conn.,) where he soon grew into the confidence of his fellow-citizens, by whom he was repeatedly elected to the General Assembly of the State. He early received a commission as Justice of the Peace, which in those days was the highest evidence of the public spirit, and the pure and high character of those who were thus honored. He was a Soldier of the Revolution, and [December 24, 1769,] before leaving Colchester, became a member of the Congregational Church.

In 1794, he emigrated to Sherburne, Chenango County, (N. Y.,) where he located on a farm, (which is now in the present town of Smyr na,) on which he resided nearly fifty years, until his death. In his new home, his energy, discrimination, practical judgment and amiable de portment, found ample room for exercise. He did much to promote the settlement and improvement of the country, by assisting to open roads, establish schools, organize churches, build houses of worship, and lend a helping hand to many a needy emigrant in distress.

He early received marks of the confidence and esteem of his neigh bors and fellow citizens, by being elected, in 1798, a member of the lower House, and, in 1810, of the Senate of the Legislature of New- York. While in that office, he gave his hearty support and advocacy to all measures to establish common schools and provide funds for their support, and he continued their ardent friend through life. In the same year, (1800.') he was appointed first Judge of Chenango County, in which office he was continued until he reached the constitutional limit of the age of sixty.

Judge Foote was married on the 31st of May, 1773, to Mary Kel logg, daughter of Jonathan Kellogg, jun., of Colchester, with whom he lived happily upward of half a century. She died November 15, 1826, aged 82 years He survived her nearly seventeen years. His death occurred at Smyrna, on the 27th of February, 1843, having reached the advanced age of ninety-seven.

There was an exceeding beauty in his bright and serene old age, following, as it did, a long life of active usefulness and of unsuspected purity both in his public and private walk. This life, after reaching its meridian, did not suddenly rush down into the darkness of the grave, but seemed to pass gradually out like one of our longest summer days, into a serene twilight, which gradually melts into the softest night.

APPENDIX. 303

Through his long career, he was universally respected as a man of strong intellectual powers,— of strict integrity and sincerity,— of large public spirit, and the highest and purest Christian virtues. He walked uprightly in public and private life,— he was industrious in well-doing, by which he made himself useful and valuable in society :— his hand was ever ready to be put forth in any good cause,— his tongue spoke only the truth as it was in his heart :— and when he died, his friends had a comfortable hope and belief, that he had entered into the rest prepared for the people of GOD,— that he had gone to abide in His Tabernacle, and dwell in His Holy Hill,— inasmuch as he had walked through life uprightly, working righteousness, and speaking the truth in his heart, and had trusted in Christ and his righteousness for salvation.

EBENEZER FOOTE.

EBENEZER FOOTE removed from Colchester, (Conn.,) to Delhi, (N. Y.,) about the close of the War of the Revolution, in which he shared first the perils of a common soldier, and afterwards of a subordinate officer. While stationed near Newark, (N. J.,) he, with a detachment of the American army, was taken prisoner by the enemy, and carried to New-York. He ejected his escape with Sergeant-Major Wood, and crossed the North River on a board, and landed safely, but much ex hausted, at Communipaw, below Pawles Hook. He afterwards shared in the perils and triumphs of the American army at Trenton. From this date, he was employed in the Commissary Department, under Col. Champion, till the close of the war. After removing to Delhi, New- York, he was elected to the House of Assembly, and while in that body, he was instrumental in the formation of the County of Delaware, of which he was appointed Clerk, and subsequently first Judge. He was also a Member of the State Senate. In public life, he was laborious and faithful in the discharge of his official duties, in vyhich he gave uni versal satisfaction ; and in private life, was distinguished for his kind ness, hospitality, and gentlemanly deportment. He numbered among his friends and associates, some of the most eminent men in the State. During the last years of his life, he was President of the Delaware County Bible Society, to which he made liberal donations.

MRS. HANNAH FOOTE.

Mrs. HANNAH FOOTE, the subject of this brief notice, died at Colches ter, (Conn.,) the 20th of January, 1848, aged 82 years She was relict of the late Mr. Stephen Foote, and considered merely as a woinan, justly ranked with superiors. Though unsurpassed in her devotion to her family and domestic avocations, yet her capacious mind was stored with such ample knowledge of various topics, as to render her an object of interest to the most intelligent in the social circle. But when con sidered as a Christian, she stood pre-eminent. The ease and clearness with which she enforced the precepts of the Gospel, and discussed its doctrines, might have led one to suppose it had been the sole study of her life, while her mild accent and tender manner, wrapt, in pleased attention to religious instruction, the child whose natural heart digressed from usual inculcations. For the more mature in life, she drew large supplies from the store-house of her experience, and her advice com- manded, at least, the respect of the hearer. Her cotemporaries also, were soothed by her sympathy and encouraged by her example.

304 APPENDIX.

The trials by which she proved herself qualified fora seat " with the just, made perfect in heaven," were peculiar, and severe beyond the ordinary course of life ; yet, so deep were they buried in the recesses of her heart, as to be perceptible only by their sanctifying effects. If one Christian grace can be said to have been more conspicuous than another, it was humility, which added to her tranquil candor, imparted a dignity of manner that delighted while it controlled. The cause of Christ without any of its divisions, was her engrossing subject and the burthen of her prayers. To designate which object under this general head was fraught with greatest interest to her, would be difficult 5 yet her light which was ever bright, shone " more and more unto the per fect day." When her children no longer seemed to share in her care when their solicitations for her restoration to health were unheeded by her— when her eye was about to close on the " things of time and sense," and open on visions of beatific glory, and long: cherished hope had well nigh folded her pinions in the certainty of reality, then did the apparent lethargy of her brethren in the church overcome the lethargy of disease, and their religious stupor exceed with her the stupor of death. Then did she exclaim aloud for them, and her last audible ap peal was, that they would "cease to slumber in the service of the Lord" that they would " awake to righteousness and sin not."

Thus she who had so long been depositing treasures in heaven, passed away to enjoy them " where moth and rust do not corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal."

Communicated by Mrs. Z. M. Kelley, grand-niece of the deceased. COLCHESTER, July 4th, 1848.

MRS. HARRIETTS N. MARVIN.

Died at Key West, Florida, March 31st, 1848, Mrs. Harriette N. Mar vin, wife of Hon. William Marvin, and second daughter of the late Judge Foote, of Coopers; own. This dispensation of an all-wise Provi dence throws the pall of grief over a large circle of acquaintances and friends. The peculiar loveliness of Mrs. Marvin's character endeared her to all with whom she was conversant; but in the domestic circle, and the unreserved intercourse of intimate friendship, the deep devo tion of her self-sacrificing spirit was most conspicuous. Asa daughter, a sister, a friend, to say that she was unsurpassed is but a feeble ex pression of the reality ; as a wife, the heart of her bereaved husband only knew her worth. Mrs. Marvin endured a lingering and painful illness with unwavering patience. For weeks she viewed the approach of death with entire composure, and spoke of her departure from earth as she would have spoken of going to the home of her childhood ; she knew in whom she had believed, and with joyful confidence committed into his hands not only her own spirit, but the beloved ones she was leaving. Grace triumphed over the struggles of nature, and her hus band, her infant daughter and orphan sisters were given up to him who has said, " I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee." When her lips could no longer utter the words of hope and love, when "flesh and heart were failing," after a look of intense affection at each one who stood at her bedside, she raised her eyes on high, arid as they were fixed there, a smile of ineffable sweetness and holy peace illumined her countenance, and as "gently as night dews descend," she ceased to breathe. " And I heard a voice from heaven, saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord."

MRS. SARAH LOUISA TAYLOR.

THE following sketch of the life and character of Mrs. Taylor, was prepared by Mrs. Lydia Huntley Sigourney, whose heart rejoices to pay a ready welcome, among the living, to every one distinguished for moral and intellectual worth, and whose pen has woven so many undy ing wreaths of poetry over the graves of departed genius and virtue.

SARAH LOUISA FOOTE, the third daughter of William and Mary Ann Foote, was born at East-Haddam, (Conn.,) January 18, 1809. She early evinced amiable affections, and intellectual tastes. Her edu cation, commenced at the district schools of her native place, was con tinued at a more select institution in Glastenbury, and completed at Bacon Academy in Colchester, of which she became a member at the age of fifteen. While earnestly pursuing her studies, she made many friends, as she possessed the requisite qualifications for ardent and en during attachment.

Her mind, though brilliant, and at times, even playful, was addicted to reflection and serious thought ; and by the discipline of God's provi dences, and the influence of His Holy Spirit, attained a deep, and sus taining piety. Desire of usefulness was a predominant element in her character,— and while still quite young, she engaged in the work of instructing her own sex, at first, in the Academy where she was her self a pupil, and afterwards in the City of New-York, and in Patterson, New- Jersey. Of the delights and responsibilities of a Christian teacher, she was exquisitely susceptible, and successful in gaining the love of those committed to her care. Visits to the sick and poor, and attention to those duties which harmonize with a sincere religious profession, mingled with her toils in the field of education. Failing health, at length, compelled her to resign her laborious avocation, while the afflicting loss of two beloved sisters, threw her more exclusively on divine consolations, and revealed their inexhaustible fullness.

At the age of 21, she was married to Mr. John S. Taylor, of New- York, and entered on her new duties, as the head of a household, with a pervading sense of solemn accountability. Among her varied efforts of benevolence, were gifts of religious books, and the adoption of a lit tie orphan girl, whom she strove, with unwearied tenderness, to guide in the way to heaven.

But her exertions in this sphere were short ;— in a few years, she be came the victim of hopeless consumption, and was obliged to relinquish both the cares and comforts of housekeeping, and yield her two infant sons to the charge of relatives in a distant part of the State. These severe trials she strove to bear with resignation, and in the re tired home of her birth awaited the coming of the pale messenger.

Her letters to various correspondents, and parting addresses and poems for her children, disclose a clear, vigorous intellect, and the affections of a subdued spirit. These are collected in a volume, by the Rev. Lot Jones, Minister of the Mission Church of the Epiphany, in New-York, who was for some time her Pastor.

When the Destroyer came, the last words that breathed from her lips as she turned her dim eyes to her husband's face, were— "My children !" She died August 2d, 1836, at the age of 25,— and her re mains rest, as she had requested, in the church-yard of the spct of her nativity; and when the intention of the living is carried into execution, the voyager on the waters of the Connecticut, will discern from the deck of his vessel, three marble tomb-stones of equal heighth, the me morial of those three sisters, who were " lovely and pleasant in their lives, and not in death divided." 39

306 APPENDIX.

The following beautiful lines, suggested by the dying scene above alluded to, were written by Mr. William Cutter, the early friend and class-mate of Mr. Taylor.

" Farewell !

Oh ! who the bitterness can tell Of that brief word, when on a mother's heart, Called from her helpless babes so soon to part,

Its lingering tones of sadness swell !

Farewell !

Warm gushing from the inmost cell Of the heart's yearning tenderness, that knows No measure for its fulness thus o'erflows

Love's parting benison Farewell !

Adieu !

Again, my darling babes, on you I may not fondly look. I may not more Over your precious heads low bending, pour

My prayer, as I was wont to do.

Adieu !

Not from my heart to sever you, Dear precious pledges of an earnest love That soon shall know its counterpart above

Oh ! no but only from my view.

Sweet Flowers !

Gathered in love's terrestrial bowers, A few brief mornings fondly cherished there, Oh ! with what yearning tenderness and care

I would have watched your opening powers I

But go

Heaven calls me hence I may not know Your blooming or your blight to them who ne'er Can feel a mother's yearnings, be the care

To watch you, as ye fade or grow.

Ye smile,

Sweet babes ! unconscious all the while Of sorrow, fear, or parting. Life to you Has neither past nor future. All seems true

That can the present thought beguile.

Smile on !

Smile on ! And oh ! when I am gone, May God in kindness so direct your ways, That love and hope may gladden all your days,

And heaven upon their evening dawn.

Go now

Upon each placid infant brow I've looked my last and fondest on each cheek Imprinted my last kiss and now I seek

To breathe a dying mother's vow.

O Thou !

To whose behest I meekly bow, And leave these tender infants motherless Take them to thine, from my too weak embrace

O Father, smile upon them now.

They're thine

No longer may I call them mine ! Baptized into thy blessed mystic name, And bound to thee by that most precious claim

Thine, Father, they are wholly thine !"

REBEKAH G. FOOTE.

Died at Northampton, Fulton county, (N. Y.,) on the 29th of Novem ber, 1845, Rebekah G. Foote, daughter of Elisha and Rebekah Foote, of the same town.

Miss Foote exhibited in her quiet life a beautiful and pure model of the Christian character. She early connected herself with the Metho dist Church, and found in tne practice of the duties which such connection implies and enjoins, the sweetest pleasures of this Hie, and the surest hopes of a blessed hereafter.

ZIBA FOOTE.

ZIBA FOOTE, son of Edward and Anna Foote, was born at Newtown, (Conn.,) in July, 1785. His childhood and youth were full of promise : but he was cut off by untimely death ere the blossoms of his genius haa ripened into fruit. His early predilection for books, and studious habits, were encouraged by his parents, and he was assisted by them, and more by his own industry, in obtaining an education. Before he was sixteen years of a^e, he taught a district school, which employment he engaged in from time to time, for four years afterwards, and thereby realized the means of prosecuting his classical studies, which he com menced in 1802. By the most indefatigable industry, he qualified him self to enter the senior class in Yale College, in 1804, and during the year of his connection with the college, he was the successful competit or for the " Dean's Bounty," an evidence of his superior attainment in the Latin and Greek languages. To attain such a standing in a class of forty-one members, among whom such men as the Rev. Samuel Farmar Jarvis, D.D., Rev Heman Humphrey, D. D., President of Amherst College, Rev. Gardner Spring, D. D., were to be found, and after such a brief preparatory course, was no mean distinction as a scholar. Immediately after his examination for his decree, and without waiting for the exercises of Commencement, young Foote started for Cincinnati, to seek the employment of land surveyor under Col. Mans field, of that place, who had made application to Yale College for sev eral young men of practical science, for this purpose. His journey to the west was in August, the most perilous season of the year, and his engagements there were attended with a succession of exposures and accidents, which brought on sickness, and in less than a year hurried him to an untimely and ill-starred grave. His letters to his father, written from Ohio, are full of the most harrowing details of his misfor tunes and sufferings, which were, however, borne by him with heroic resolution to succeed or die,— and die he did, within one year after he left the threshold of his father's house to seek his fortune at the west. He was accidentally drowned in a small lake or pond, in the southwest corner of Gibson county, State of Indiana, about six miles from Wabash river, and a few miles below Coffee Island, on Wednesday the 30th of April, 1806. He was at this time ens-aged in surveying, and very im prudently undertook to swim the ponclwith his compass and staff. His body was recovered, and buried on the margin of the lake, from which place it was subsequently removed to a tomb in a retired valley near the town of Bedford, Indiana,— far away from his home and his kindred. Thus perished, in early life, Ziba Foote, and in his untimely grave were extinguished many fond anticipations,— many bright promises of a successful and honorable career.

NATHANIEL FOOTE.

NATHANIEL FOOTE was a very respectable, worthy and enterprising farmer, and lived and died on the Paternal Home. His father left him the greater share of his estate. His house continued during his life to be the same home for every member of the family, as it was previous to his father's death. Having no issue, he cheerfully and kindly assisted his affectionate mother in bringing up the younger portion of the family, who were children at his father's death. His attachment to his dear native home, to the place where his parents had lived and died, was deep and abiding.

ISAAC FOOTE.

ISAAC FOOTE, son of Hon. Isaac Foote, of Smyrna, (N. Y.,) was born at Stafford, (Conn.,) April 18, 1776, and removed in 1794, with his father, to Sherburne, (now Smyrna,) New-York, where he still resides. He was early and successively elected or appointed to various executive offices of the township and county, such as constable, collector, deputy- sherirl'and high-sheriff. In the Congregational Church, his Christian character is evinced by the holy office of Deacon, which he has held since 1808. T he confidence reposed in his honesty, fidelity and capacity, is shown by the fact that he has had the principal agency in the man agement and sale of the large landed estates in the county of Chenango, belonging to the Lawrence and Livingston families, to me entire satis faction of all concerned.

In whatever position he has been placed of a public nature, he has had the good fortune to secure and retain the confidence of all whose inter ests were in any manner committed to his care, or affected by his man agement.

The fact that he is still among the living precludes our speaking of the virtues which adorn his private and social life.

HARRIET ELIZABETH FOOTE.

Died in Smyrna, (N. Y.,) July llth, 1846, at the residence of her grand-parent, Deacon Isaac Foote, Miss HARRIET ELIZABETH FOOTE, daughter of Justin Foote, deceased, aged 20 years. She was taken sick and died while on a visit to her grand-parents, with whom she had spent the greater part of her life, till about two and a half years since, when she went to reside with her widowed mother at Batavia. When she came to Smyrna, far from herself and friends was the thought that her youthful and lovely form was soon to waste away by disease and to find a grave by the side of her father's sleeping dust. All that love and skill could do was done to arrest the progress of her disease: it gradually became evident to her friends that death had marked her for his prey, that her time had come. To her friends it was consoling that she was prepared to meet it. At an early age she manifested an attachment to Christ, and made a public profession of her faith in him. By her life she adorned her profession. On the bed of sickness she was meek, pa tient and submissive. She had a desire to live, but wished above all, the will of the Lord done. Till the last hour she confessed herself a sinner, and if saved, it must be by nothing she had done, but all through the merits of Christ. She peacefully fellasleepin Jesus, (as we trust,) leaving many to weep over her earfy grave.

MRS. ROGER M. SHERMAN.

The following notice of this superior woman appeared in the New- York Observer, August 12, 1848, soon after her decease. It is, I presume, from the pen of Rev. Lyman Atwater, the Pastor of the Churcff of which she was so long an exemplary member.

Mrs. ELIZABETH SHERMAN, widow of the late Hon. Roger M. Sher man, died at Fairh'eld, (Conn.,) on the 3d instant, in the 75th year of her age.

Thus has passed away all that remained of the family of a man of eminent distinction in the church and the State. .His venerable relict, who has now followed him to the grave, adorned the station allotted her by Providence, by bringing to it intellectual powers and accomplish ments not inferior to those of her distinguished husband. Remarkable for her conscientiousness, prudence, wisdom— her firmness and stead fastness of attachment to the doctrines and ordinances of the Gospel, her zeal in maintaining religious institutions, her liberality to the poor,

to every good wrork." In her death the poor universally mourn the loss of a great benefactor. The church bewails the removal ol'a strong pillar. Benevolent institutions will miss a constant and generous pat ron. Society surfers the loss of a bright example and firm supporter of whatever is pure and lovely and of good report. A large circle of attached and confiding relatives and friends weep over the departure of one writh whom they oft took sweet counsel, " sorrowing most of all because they shall see her face no more." But " she rests from her labors and her works do follow her."

Her numerous friends will be glad to learn that after a life of great bodily suffering, her last sickness was almost wholly without pain ; and that after struggling with doubts and fears, (the result of a naturally desponding temperament,) through most of her pilgrimage, (when she had ceased to answer other questions,) she responded affirmatively and unqualifiedly to the question put by her pastor, " Can you trust your self entirely in the hands of your Saviour?" This was almost her last utterance. And they who know her, know that she could not have said what she did not mean.

In accordance with the mutual understanding and united wishes of herself and husband, she has made the following bequests to religious and public institutions. She has bequeathed her miscellaneous library, house and homestead to the First Ecclesiastical Society of Fairfield, together with a fund of $2500 for the purpose of keeping the same in repair ; the former for the increase of the ministerial library, the latter for a parsonage.

She has given the law library of her late husband to the county of Fairfield, for the use of the bar and courts of said county ; £4.000 to the corporation of Yale College, on the condition that they pay an annuity ofijti200 to one of her nephews during his life ; $2,000 to the East Wind sor Institute; #4,000 to the American Home Missionary Society; $4,000 to the American Colonization Society : $4,000 to the Retreat for the Insane at Hartford : $500 to the Female Beneficent Society of Fairfield.

THE following sketch is from the pen of the Rev. Thomas Robbins, D. D., Librarian of the Connecticut Historical Society, of which he was one of the founders, and to which he has bequeathed his valuable

310 APPENDIX.

Library,— the collection of his long life,— an enduring monument of his zeal in the cause of Literature and Religion. Every visitor to the City of Hartford, should not fail to examine this valuable collection, and to pay their respects, while he is yet spared among us, to this worthy representative of the manners and faith of the early fathers of New- England. $

It has long been a prevalent opinion that a military life is unfavora ble to the Christian character. A large portion of armies, in all Chris tian countries, are undoubtedly destitute of the habitual fear of God, and little acquainted with the precepts of the divine Saviour. Divers causes operate to produce such a state of things, among those who are devoted to a military life. Those who adopt the profession of arms, are often destitute of a Christian birth and early education, and early exposed to the dangers of evil example. Frequently they leave a pa rental domicil in early youth, and are deprived of the inestimable privi lege of parental home. In the camp and the tented field, there are many temptations, and many examples to lead them astray.

Still, it is a very gratifying truth, that there is no condition of human life that excludes the blessings of divine grace, or that is deprived of access to the blessed Saviour, whose blood cleanseth from all sin. War is not necessarily wrong. There have been various instances in which God has approved of it, and directed his people to go forth to the field of battle. In the first of the two S9ngs of Moses, the blessed Saviour, the God of Israel, is praised in this character. " I will sing unto the Lord, for he hath triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea. The Lord is a man of war ; the Lord is his name." The man that appeared to Joshua, with a sword in his hand, who evidently was Christ, says, " As Captain of the host of the Lord am I now come." He assumes a military character. No person is so often spoken of in the scriptures, as the type and representative of the Saviour, as Uavid. Yet, he was the greatest warrior of his time. Many of the most distinguished men in the armies of modern countries, have been highly eminent in the Christian character. This has often been found in the honest soldier. A detachment of the Hessian troops belonging to the army of Burgoyne, as they passed through Connecti cut, after the surrender at Saratoga, made a halt on the Sabbath, at tended on public worship, and celebrated the sacrament of the Lord's Supper. Lord Nelson had in his ship a knot of seamen, who attended daily to religious duties by themselves, and the Admiral suffered no one to molest them in these services. And there was no portion of his crew on whom he placed greater dependence in the day of battle. The well-known hymn, entitled " The Hiding Place," was written by a British Officer, who was hopefully converted during a confinement in prison.

The population of New-England have ever been, in some degree, conversant with war- As a community, never less, probably, than at the present time. In the early period of their history, they were expo sed, for the most of the time, to the hostility of the savages on their borders. As the Canadas belonged to France, previous to 1763, with the great influence of that people with the Natives, in the long and re peated wars between that power and Great Britain, New-England and New-York, for the most of the time, had enemies on their borders. The military expedition to the Island of Cape Breton, in 1745, which issued in the capture of Louisbourg, was as great an achievement, for the strength of these Colonies at that time, as the capture of Burgoyne and his army, twenty years after. Between these two wars was the severe war of 1755, which was mostly decided by the battle of Quebec in 1759, and Canada came into the possession of Great-Britain. It does not appear that these Colonies were instrumental in bringing on these wars, which had their origin in the royal courts, yet they were forced to bear no small part of the burden. And in this way Divine Provi dence was preparing this people for the great conflict which issued in

APPENDIX. 311

the establishment of a great, and a new country. The surviving sol diers of the French war were the solid nucleus of the army of Independ ence. And the greatness of the occasion, in the war of the Revolution, called the best portion of the population to the high places of the field.

Major ISAAC FOOTS was born at Branford, in Connecticut, July 16th, 1717. j|fis father, Isaac Foote, Esq., and his mother, a daughter of Mr. Abraham Dickerman, of New-Haven, were highly esteemed by their acquaintance, particularly in the duties of the Christian charac ter. This, their only son, was early consecrated to God, and, with two sisters, was trained up with parental care, and with the best advanta ges for education that could be ordinarily obtained at that day. In his youth he exhibited an inclination to the Military profession, which was necessarily cultivated, more or less, at that period of our history. What part he took in the war of 1745, is not well known, but it is sup posed that he was an officer in the militia, and probably engaged in the important expedition to Cape Breton, which issued in the capture of the strongly fortified town of Louisbourg.

The next period of peace between England and France, continued but seven years. The succeeding war, commonly denominated the " French War," commenced in 1755 ; the same season as the defeat of the unfortunate Braddock. The regiment to which Major Foote was attached, joined the Northern army under the command of Gen. Shirley. Great preparations were made that year for the approaching contest ; the best troops in New-England were called out, it being gen erally expected that the decisive Conflict of war would take place in Canada. This proved to be the case, in the successful battle of Quebec, with the death of Gen. Wolfe.

At this eventful season, we have in Major Foote a striking exhibition of the Christian soldier. While his detachment was at Albany, Gen. Shirley had a dining party, of which Mr. Foote was one, on the Sab bath. He attended public worship in the morning, and then went to dinner. At the call for the afternoon exercise, Major Foote rose at table, and asked permission to leave the company. Gen. Shirley said, "No, Major, do not leave this company, and these choice wines." He mod estly renewed his request, and was refused as before. Mr. Foote stood, but was silent. The Gen. spoke again, " No compulsion, Major, take your choice, leave if you wish." He took a respectful leave for the house of prayer.

A few extracts from his letters, written to his wife, a short time pre vious to his decease, will give a distinct view of the Christian character of Major Foote, and may be more interesting than the remarks of another. He was in the tract of country between Albany, Lake Cham- plain, and Lake Ontario, distinguished in our history for military achievements.

" Fort Nicholson, Aug. 15, 1755.— I am now arrived at the great car rying-place where General Lyman built a fort. I do not expect to write you any letters before we attack the fort and have an engage ment; and stand or fall live or die, as God pleases. I feel, in general, resigned to the disposal of Divine Providence ; and if it should be my lot to fall in battle, or otherwise die here, let me recommend to you as from a dying husband, to live entirely devoted to God and his service. Spend your time in doing the will of God. The great part of your care must be in bringing up the dear children, and use your utmost endeavor to instruct them in the principles of religion ; pray much with them and for them. . . I hope your heart is fixed, trusting in God, so that evil tidings shall not make you afraid. I know that, like Eli, your heart will tremble, you will want to hear and yet be afraid to hear. And when you learn that there are a number slain, (for it would be very ex traordinary if none should be killed,) how your heart will tremble lest! should be in the number of them that fall in battle. And if it should be the case, do not mourn immoderately, for while you are mourning and

312 APPENDIX.

weeping, through the Redeemer's merits, I shall be adoring before the throne of God."

In his next letter, dated Aug. .20th, he writes,—" We have orders to move forward our regiments. I um not well, but resigned to the will of God. Hope you are, and will continue so. The comforts of religion are real, solid, and sometimes ravishing. O Saviour, how much do t long to be conformed to thee. Love God, pray much, instructThe chil dren, and if I ever come home, I intend to do more for them than I have ever done. Pray for Zion's prosperity. I trust you will be faithful in the affair of the religion of the family. I now have the distemper that prevails among us, though not mortal except in two instances. But I am in safe hands. Do not be concerned about me ; you may mention the case to a prayer-hearing God, and desire the prayers of my Chris tian friends. I trust I shall be saved from the pestilence that walketh in darkness, and the arrows and bullets that fly at noon-day. But, how ever it be, do you love and praise God, and join with me in ascribing praise and honor to the Lamb, to whom be glory everlasting."

In a letter of Sept. 1st, he says,—" I left the camp about a week ago, on account of my ill health. Am now pretty well recovered, and design to go to the army to-morrow. Gen. Johnson, with 1500 men, is now at the Lake St. Savian, building a fort ; and some things look discoura ging. Yet I trust, if the reinforcements come seasonably, we shall proceed to some point. We have some prospect of an engagement.

I am at present in low spirits. Oh, alas ; how various are my frames ! Last letter I wrote you I was on the mount ; and could unite with angels in adoring sovereign grace ;— and now, alas, why sunk down in stupidity and sloth. Oh, cry to Heaven for me. I hope you and the few dear praying ones, will continue to besiege, as you beautifully ex press it, the Throne of Grace. You may do more than Gen. Johnson can with his army. Oh ! the prayer of saints— I had almost said Om nipotent. Mr. Bellamy, in a letter, tells me, all the children of God lie prostrate before the Lord, for success in this enterprize. . . Oh amaz ing grace ! how safe is the believer. Perils and dangers he may pass through, afflictions may encompass him like bees, death may stare him in the face and threaten an onset. Serene and calm he awaits the blow ; and asks the monster: Where is its sting, and where its victory boasting g rave" ?

" Flatts, 4 miles above Albany, Sept. 17, '55. I am here at Colonel Schuyler's, waiting^ for a guard, for it is not deemed safe to go alone. I am in a very feeble state of health ; think it is owing to Jesuit's bark, taken to break fever and ague fits, or to the almost constant fogs that arise from the river. If I was at home, I should quite give out. I am tenderly looked after, go where I will, and treated very kindly. . . . I know not when I shall go home, if ever. I would have you cast all your care, and roll all your burden-upon God. He will support you. Is he not better to you than any earthly friend ? I am sure he is to me. When dejected, he raises me up; when fainting, he gives me refresh ing cordials; when thirsty, he gives me the water of life."

" Thursday Morning.— Slept comfortably; hope you had a good night, and freedom this morning to pour out your soul to God. I am very poor and pained to-day ; but it is all well ; because as to health, it is as God would have it. . . It is now 9 o'clock ; I will lay down and rest my poor body, if God pleases, and to-morrow, I may perhaps write more ; and so good night to you and the children and friends."

About this period, Major Foote obtained permission to leave the army on account of his constant and increasing illness, hoping to be able to reach his home. But he was not able to proceed any farther than Greenbush, opposite Albany, where he died October 7, 1755, in the 39th year of his age. In the ancient burying-ground, opposite the

APPENDIX. 313

lower part of the city of Albany, he sleeps in peace, to be called by his Lord at the " resurrection of the just." *

MOSES FOOTE.

MOSES FOOTE, the eon of Moses Foote, was born in that part of Wa- terbury, now Plymouth, (Conn.,) where he resided until soon after the close of the Revolutionary War, when he removed with his family to commence a settlement in the western wilderness of New-York. He was accompanied in this movement by the families of his sons, and his sons-in-law, making altogether a neighborhood of his own. With Mr. Foote to lead and direct the enterprise, the party were admirably fitted to commence a new settlement. They were all charged with Yankee ingenuity, energy and oerseverance, and Mr. Foote was en dowed with an iron frame, six leet high, and of a temperament and muscular texture which admirably fitted him for a pioneer life. They took up a temporary residence at German Flats, on the Mohawk river, then the very boundary of civilization on the west. In the autumn of 1786, they determined on a location sixty miles beyond, at a place now called Clinton, and there erected log huts, preparatory to an early re moval in the succeeding spring. Accordingly, with the other families, Mr. Foote commenced the settlement of the new town in March, 1787, when scarcely the smoke of a log cabin inhabited by a white family could be discerned for twenty miles round. The town was first called Paris, by the Legislature, on the petition of the inhabitants, in com memoration of the liberality of a merchant at Fort Plains, on the Mo hawk, who supplied the infant settlement with corn and other provis ions at a low price and a long credit, at a season when the crops, affected by the unfavorable weather, had nearly failed. The purchase made in 1788, by George Clinton and other Commissioners appointed by the Legislature, from the Oneida Indians, of all their land, except some small reservation, gave a new and powerful impetus to the settlement of all this section of country, and in the course of a few years, the germs of from twenty to thirty towns were planted in the region round about Mr. Foote's settlement. Mr. Foote lived to see his own settle ment expand and strengthen into a beautiful and flourishing village, bearing the honored name of Clinton, and the seat of a University, called after the no less honored name of Hamilton. During his lite, the wil derness through which he and his companions cut their way with the axe, was converted into fields of grass, and corn, and wheat,— and the stupendous work of connecting the waters of Lake Erie and Hudson river, by a navigable canal, was devised and completed, and his own crops were borne on its bosom to the Atlantic markets, along the very route on which he made his slow and toilsome progress, through tang led forests, on loot, forty years before. He died in 1819, at the age of 84.

EBENEZER FOOTE, COUNSELLOR AT LAW.

in the county of Litchfield, and State of Connecticut. His father was born, lived and died in the same town. His grandfather was Doct. Thomas Foote, who spent most of his life and also died in that town. His grandfather lived and died— his father was born, lived and died— and he was born on the same farm, which is still in the family, being now owned and occupied by his nephew, Mr. Hubert Scovill. John Foote, the father of Ebenezer, was an industrious and successful farmer. He had eight children, three sons and five daughters, to whose support and education he devoted the proceeds of his farm. His second son, John, and his youngest son, Samuel Alfred, received liberal educations at college. Ebenezer being the eldest, was designed by his father to be the Iarmer of the family, and remained on the farm and labored with him until he was twenty years of age. He then became anxious to change his pursuit He wished to acquire an education and enter the profession of law ; it being the expectation of the family that his brother John would enter the ministry. His parents did not oppose his wishes, and after the season of labor was over in the autumn of 1792, he left home, weni to the neighboring town of Cheshire, and commenced clas sical studies under the tuition of the Rev. John Foote, with a view of preparing himself to enter college, and in the sophomore or junior class. He pursued these studies nearly two years, not, however, giving his whole time to them, as he was obliged to devote a considerable portion of it to teaching school for the purpose of earning in part the means of obtaining his education. Finding that full four years, if not more, would be required to complete a collegiate course of study, obliged as he was to devote a large portion of each year to teaching, he determined to abandon that object and enter at once upon the study of his profession. Accordingly he went to Litchfield, entered the law school of the Hon. Tapping Reeve, and commenced the study of the law. This school deservedly had a high reputation, and furnished great facilities for ac quiring a knowledge of legal science. Mr. Foo'e pursued his profes sional studies at and in connexion with this school for two years, a por tion of each year being spent in teaching. In December, 1796, he was admitted to the bar of the State of Connecticut, and in the language of his license allowed " full right and authority to practice, as attorney and counsellor at law, in all the courts, as well supreme as inferior, both of law and equity throughout this State." Soon after obtaining his license, and without making any attempt to practice his professi9n in Connecticut, he removed to the State of New-York, and established himself at Lansinburgh, in the county of Rensselaer. He reserved the small portion which his parents were able to give him until this time of his need. In February, 1797, he sold the land which his father had given him on his attaining his majority, and with the proceeds provided an outfit lor the commencement of his career in life. He was a dutiful son, and left the paternal roof with the affection and blessing of pious parents.

Admission to the courts in the State of New- York was at that time easy, and after a few months of professional study he was licensed to practice. His first license was given to him in November, 1797, by the Court of Common Pleas of Rensselaer County. His admission into the other and higher courts of the State, followed soon afterwards. A strong constitution, a large and vigorous frame, a full and manly voice, a mature intellect, a ready and rough wit, together with uncommon self reliance, fitted him for success in the profession which he had chosen. That success he obtained at once. He also became a prom inent politician and was soon an active and influential member of the old republican party. He early acquired the confidence of the leaders of that party in his adopted State, and in after years his political oppo nents, in consequence oi'the intimacy and friendship existing between him and the late Chief Justice Spencer, who was the leading spirit of the republican party of that day, used to call him " Spencer's Foot "

burgh, and being also the shire town of the county, Mr. Foote soon changed his residence to that place and entered into copartnership with John Bird, Esq., a gentleman of brilliant intellect and finished scholar ship. Their copartnership continued several years. The sickness and earl}- death of Mr. Bird dissolved it. In 1801, only four years after his admission to the bar, Mr. Foote had acquired considerable eminence in his profession. He had attracted the notice and obtained the friend ship of Governor George Clinton. So high an estimate did the Gov ernor put on his talents and worth, that in August of that year he caused him to be appointed Assistant Attorney General for the District com prehending the counties of Columbia, Rensselaer and Greene. His commission was signed by the Governor, and is dated the 13th of Au gust, 1801. The duties of this office required the exertion of high pro fessional talents and they were discharged by Mr. Foote to the entire satisfaction of the public. He held the office several years and until a change in the party politics of the State caused a general change in official incumbents.

After the discontinuance of the professional connection between him and Mr. Bird, he pursued his profession alone for sometime; but finding it impossible to attend the courts where his extensive practice required his presence almost constantly, and also give the requisite attention to the attorney's business in the office, he formed a new connection and entered into copartnership with a gentleman of high respectability, who had industry and tact for business, and was well versed in the practice of the law. This was a fortunate arrangement for both. They did a large business and were very prosperous. His partner gave his atten tion principally to the duties of an Attorney and Solicitor which confined him to the office, while Mr. Foote performed those of a counsellor and advocate. He was almost constantly engaged in the trial and argu ment of causes. He excelled particularly in trials before juries, and in that branch of his profession, had few if any superiors in this State. His influence and standing as a politician kept pace with his progress in his profession. He was an ardent, active and able supporter of the principles of the republican party. Finding that the capital of the State afforded a more convenient and suitable location for him than the then village of Troy, he dissolved his copartnership in August, 1808, and shortly afterwards removed to the city of Albany. There he con tinued the practice of his profession until his death, having generally a junior partner to attend to the business in the office. During this period he took an active part in politics, wrote considerably for the press, and exerted a strong influence in fayur of the side he -espoused. He was on one occasion a prominent candidate for the office of United States Sen ator, and his friends for a time believed they should accomplish his election, but did not.

His youn°r and only surviving brother, Samuel A. Foote, entered his office as a clerk, in the autumn of 1811. Samuel North, Esq. was then his partner. Mr. North's ill health obliged him to withdraw from the duties of his profession in February, 1812. From that time Mr. Foote's brother took charge of the business of his office. Mr. North's illness proved fatal. He died in January, 1813, while yet a young man, belov ed and admired in life and mourned in death, for his moral qualities and intellectual attainments. The death of Mr. North opened the way for a professional connection between Mr. Foote and his brother, who had then just attained his majority, but had not studied law the length of time required by the rules of court for admission to the bar. Mr. Foote, however, availing himself of the time his brother had spent in his office while a youth, and before entering college, made a special ap plication to the Court, who dispensed with their rule in favor of his brother, and admitted him to an examination. He was found qualified, received his license, and entered into copartnership with his brother in January, 1813. This connection was happy and prosperous, but of short duration. Mr. Foote attended the Circuit Court of Rensselaer

316 APPENDIX.

County, held at Troy in the early part of July, 1814. He was engaged in several important trials ; the weather was unusually warm, and his temperament ardent. Over exertion or some other imperceptible cause, probably the former, brought upon him a bilious fever. He returned Rome, medical aid was obtained and nothing serious apprehended for some days. But on the fourth or fifth day of his illness, the fever began to rage and the disease assumed an alarming aspect. On the 21st of that month and in the 42d year of his age, after a sickness of only eleven days, death seized him, and after a violent and painful struggle, in which his robust constitution and manly frame maintained for nours a conflict with the king of terrors, he yielded and expired in the full ma turity of his physical and intellectual powers.

Mr. Foote was a large man, full six feet in height, had a good consti tution, and a well formed and muscular frame. His forehead was high, and his eyes dark and remarkably bright. Cut down unexpectedly and early in life, no portrait of him was taken, and his likeness only remains in the recollection of those who knew and now survive him. He was married to Elizabeth Colt in December, 1803. She survived him, and also a daughter and only child, born in December, 1804. His daughter was married some years after his death to Lebbeus Booth, Esq.

Mr. Foote had a strong and active mind, a warm and generous heart. Had he enjoyed the advantages of an early and thorough education he would have had few equals in this country. As he was, he had no su periors in this State in those contests at the bar, where ready \vit, strong and discriminating judgment, powerful reasoning and great intellectual resources were essential to success. He wrote as he spoke, with vigor and wit, but without the elegance or polish of a finished scholar. A brief notice like the present will not permit a reference to any of the important causes in which he was engaged, nor extracts from his speeches, many of which were published in the newspapers and pamph lets of the day, nor even a recital of the many anecdotes told of him, and which show the force and brilliancy of his unpolished but exhaustless and spicy wit.

Mr. Foote was generous and liberal to a fault. He was more ready to help his relatives and friends than provide for himself. He contribu ted liberally and freely to aid his brother Samuel Alfred in obtaining an education, and although that brother by his success in his profession was able afterwards to repay, and did with interest all these fraternal offerings, yet that did not diminish the merit of the original advance which was made without security, and probably without any expecta tion of a return.

One act of Mr. Foote's life should not be omitted, nor forgotten when ever his name is mentioned.

The present Female Academy in the city of Albany, owes its exist ence mainly if not entirely to him. It is now and has been for some years one of the most valuable and useful institutions in this country. It was commenced in February, 1814 under the name of " Union School in Montgomery Street. The original subscription paper is now before the writer. It bears date on the 24th of that month. The subscriptions are payable to Mr. Foote, and it is within the knowledge and recollection of the writer, that he started the project and obtained most of the subscriptions. Whatever was his motive and aim, whether to qualify his own daughter or those of his neighbors and friends, for the duties of American ladies, or more expansive still, to elevate and adorn the female character, and store the female mind with useful knowledge, his name should be kindly remembered by. every pupil who has enjoyed or may enjoy the benefits of the institution, and by every friend of female education.

DEACON BERJNICE FOOTE.

DEACON BERNICE FOOTE was born in that part of Waterbury, now Plymouth, June 5, 1766, and was the son of Obed Foote, and of Mary his wife, daughter of Rev. Samuel Todd, of Waterbury.

In the daysbt' his youth. Deacon Foote remembered his Creator, was the subject of religious impressions and converting grace, and dedicated himself to Christ and his service, by a public profession of religion. In after life, in his intercourse with his fellow-men, his integrity to religious principle was unbending, and he was a bright example of the Christian virtues. In his exertions to extend the boundaries of the Redeemer's kingdom, to promote education, and to advance the general good of the community in which he lived, he was untiring,— nor did he close his heart and hands against the cry and wants of the poor and needy,— the widow and the fatherless.

Three of Deacon Foote's sons were ordained, and became useful, honored and distinguished servants of Christ, in preaching his gospel.

Deacon Foote felt great comfort, and was much engaged in promo ting the social intercourse of Christians, in prayer meetings and con ference. He had a pleasant gift in prayer, and was attractive a id in structive at these assemblies. It was after being at one of these meet ings, and where he had been more than usually engaged and stirred up in his spirit for the conversion of sinners, that he returned home, solemn, yet cheerful, seated himself in a chair, and, in an instant, expired. His age was 65 years.

" Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright; for the end of that man is peace."

MRS. SYBBIL FOOTE,— WIFE OF DEACON SAMUEL FOOTE.

MRS, SYBBIL FOOTE, \vife of Deacon Samuel Foote, was the eldest daughter ofCapt. Oliver Dooliitle, of Hinsdale, New-Hampshire. Her mother was the daughter of Seth Field, Esq., of Northfield, (Mass.,) and of Susan his wile, daughter of Rev. Benjamin Doolittle, the first minister of that town.

Mrs. Foote was born in 1777, and was married to Mr. Foote, August 8, 1794. Her life presents but few incidents for public recital, but it was crowded full of those many nameless acts of kindness, benevolence and love which fill up the daily life of a woman with domestic tastes, of a wife, whose sympathies are with her husband's labors and fortunes, of a mother, to whom a large family of children looked up for guidance and education,— of a neighbor whose heart and hand were ever open to administer to the wants and pleasures of others,— and of a Christian who performed all of life's duties as in the constant presence of her final Judge. In all of these relations, as a woman, a wife, a mother, a neighbor, and a Christian, she moved through life, a beautiful example, blessing others, and blessed herself, in the consciousness of duty dis charged here on earth, and in the comfortable hope of a blissful here after. Her religious opinions were not received on trust, but were de rived from a diligent and prayerful study of the scriptures : neither were they mere matters of speculative belief, they were wrought into her daily life, her conversation and her habits. She made them the rule of her duty, in bringing up her own children, and when her husband was absent, she conducted, with sacred fidelity, family worship. She died of a bilious fever, on the 4th day of March, 1832, aged 54 years.

DEACON SAMUEL FOOTE.

Deacon SAMUEL FOOTE was born of pious parents in the town of Wa- terbury, (Northbury parish,) now Plymouth, Connecticut. His father was a native of Branford, and his mother a daughter of the Rev. Sam uel Todd, a native of North-Haven, (Conn.,) and the first settled Min ister of Northbury. He and his brothers and sisters were early dedi cated to God in baptism, as appears from the records of the church at Plymouth. At the age of ten years, May, 1780, he removed with his father to Rowe, (Mass.,) and from thence in April, 1784, to Gill, m the same State, where he resided until the death of his father, and his. own marriage. His education was at the common school, and one year at the Chesterfield Academy. About 1797, he emigrated with his family, wife and one child, to the " Chenango Country," in the State of New- York, then nearly a wilderness, and settled in the town of Sherburne, now Smyrna, where he bore a prominent part in the settlement of the country. In 1804, for the purpose of enjoying church privileges, he re moved to a more central portion of the town, where he was efficient in the erection of the first church. In 1817, he removed to Plymouth, (N. Y.,) where he was instrumental, with a few others, in building the nrs, Congregational church, and settling the first minister. He was elected a deacon of the church at this place. About 1828, he removed to the town of Ellicott, (N. Y.,) where a number of his children had pre viously emigrated. In 1832, he buried his wife, by whom he had eleven children. This was a most severe affliction to him. She was a most devoted and affectionate wife and safe counsellor, and an every day de voted Christian, and well calculated to render him and her family happy. They first united with the Congregational church in Sherburne, about A. D. 1803.

After his removals to Waterboro and Jamestown, he was continued in the office of deacon in those churches, by election, with entire una nimity. In 1833, he was married to Mrs. Parker, a widow and a worthy woman, who survives him. While on a visit to his youngest son, Obed Foote, at Grand Rapids, Michigan, in January, A. D. 1848, he closed his earthly career after a brief illness, where his body rests till the resurrection.

He was the fifth of a family of 11 children, all of them arrived at adult years, and expressed a hope in Christ, and his death was the eighth, leaving a surviving brother and two sisters, younger than himself. In person he was of spare habit, six feet in height, black hair and eyes, light complexion and florid countenance, and naturally possessed of a •strong and vigorous constitution, and until advanced in life, was seldom confined by sickness. He was a farmer, as was his father and grand father, and of uncommonly industrious habits. By industry and econ omy he raised a large family, and contributed freely from his hard- earned means, to build houses of worship, sustain the preached gospel, and the benevolent enterprises of the day, and was a life member of many benevolent societies. He never mingled in political strife. He was a man of remarkable earnestness in religion, and child like simpli city of character ; a most devoted and affectionate parent, and his at tachment to his children and friends was most ardent and sincere. Although highly impulsive, his religious character was singularly even, and few men were more controlled by the principles of religion. There was no concealment in his character, open, frank, and generous to all; and if he committed an error or gave offence, it seemed a privilege to confess it when convinced. His mind was evidently imbued with a de votional spirit, and showed his intercourse with heavenly things. There was no place he enjoyed himself so well as in the sanctuary and conference and prayer meetings, and was always ready to take a part. He was no " fair day hearer,"— the stormy day, the dark and rainy evening, found him one of the most punctual in attendance, even in de-

APPENDIX. 319

clining health and years. Of a large experience in religious things, he was most instructive in social meetings. Of a warm and tender heart, he was generally moved deeply in his address and prayers. Most inti mately acquainted with the word of God, his quotations were numerous and happy. It is believed that wherever he resided, he lei't witnesses, who at the day of judgment will call him blessed. He loved to converse about religion, and distribute bibles and tracts, and visit families, and talk about Christ and him crucified. He was tolerant and charitable to those of other denominations that he viewed as possessing the image of his Saviour ; while he at the same time was decided in nis doctrinal views. No one had more humbling views of his own heart and its na tive depravity, and his entire dependence on Christ for salvation. He loved to labor in revivals. In the latter years of his life his mental fac ulties manifested a decay and its consequences. Still his Saviour's love was his daily theme, and the facility with which he quoted scripture was remarkable, and his interest in religious meetings continued una bated. He often spoke of his approaching dissolution, and the love of his Saviour, with child-like confidence. A common exclamation, " His loving kindness oh how great." In early life he learned to sing, and delighted in singing hymns, and was most happy in his selections for special occasions or to express his own feelings.

His last illness, (jaundice,) was short and painful. Still, he bore it with that remarkable fortitude and resignation, that demonstrated the power of true religion. He anticipated his end with entire composure, and said it was his choice to depart and be with his Saviour. He fre quently exclaimed, " Oh how precious the Saviour." " My suffering time will soon be over." When asked what message he wished sent to his absent children and friends, he answered,—" Tell them to follow Christ, and meet me in heaven." For two days before his decease, he could not converse, but appeared to have his senses to the time he ex pired, which was at 2 o'clock, A. M., January 25, A. D. 1848, in the 79th year of his age.

HON. ERASTUS FOOTE.

ERASTUS FOOTE was born on the 19th day of September, 1777, and was the son of Obed Foote and of Mary his wife, daughter of Rev. Samuel Todd, of Waterbury, (Conn.) Having read law with the Hon. Samuel Hinckiey, of Northampton, (Mass.,) Mr. Foote was ad mitted to the practice of his profession in Hampshire county, (Mass.,) May, A. D. 1800; opened an office in Concord, in the same State, but removed to Camden, Maine, in July of the same year. Here he enjoyed a very extensive and lucrative practice for many years. In 18 1J he was appointed County Attorney for the county of Lincoln; in 1812 was elected Senator to the Legislature of the Commonwealth of Massa chusetts; removed to Wiscasset in 1815; was elected a Representa tive to the Legislature of Massachusetts in 1819, at which time the separation of Maine from Massachusetts took place ; was elected to the Senate of Maine in 1820 ; was appointed Attorney General of Maine in in 1820 ; in 1824 was reappointed to the same office ; and received his third appointment to the same office in 1828 ; and in 1840 he was elected a Representative to the Legislature of Maine. Mr: Foote has also held various other offices of trust and importance, both civil and military.

JOSEPH FOOTE, M. D.

JOSEPH FOOTE was born in Northfield, (Conn.,) May 12, 1770. He was fitted for Yale College under the tuition of Rev. Mr. Bray, of North Guilford, at the early age of thirteen, and graduated at that institution in 1787. He studied his profession under Doct. Potter, of Wallin°ford, and established himself as a Physician, at North-Haven, 1790. On the 16th of February, 1797, he married Mary Bassett, by whom he had two children. She died Sept. 3, 180 1. She was a prudent, intelligent and relig ious woman, whose consistent piety served to check his natural levity, and love of pleasure, and to fix his thoughts on Heaven and Eternal things. On the 26th of January, 1803, he married for his second wife, Eunice Foote, by whom he had four children, and with whom he lived happily for thirty years. She died November 12, 1833.

Doct. Foote was eminently blessed in his domestic relations, and to the virtues and influence of his wives he was proud to bear testimony. "They have aided me in the work of self-government; they have checked me when inclined to stray, and oftentimes stimulated me to duty, when I was inclined to neglect it ; their influence has rendered me a better man, and a better physician, than I otherwise should have been." He Jived to see his children educated under his own eye, and well settled in life, and died April 24-, 1836.

Asa Physician, Doct. Foote enjoyed a large and lucrative practice, and was distinguished lor his skillful and successful treatment of dis ease, as well as for his winning mariners and address, in his intercourse with the sick. At his funeral, the Rev. Leverett Griggs, the Pastor of the Church of which he became a member in 1821, delivered an ad dress, which was published at the request of the friends of the deceased. In this address, his pastor dwells on the evidence which Doct. Foote gave, especially in the latter part of his life, of his piety.

" 1. His love of divine truth. For many years he has been a student of the bible. Few understood it better than he. Few dwelt upon it more than he. When his family were around him, they were not only trained to read the scriptures daily, but seasons were set apart for spe cial study and examination. Saturday evening was always devoted to this exercise. In meetings he would often propose questions on some passage of scripture, bearing upon the point under consideration. His remarks and prayers were always well seasoned with the salt of divine truth, showing that his delight was in the law of the Lord. The man ner in which he conducted his Bible Class, showed that he loved the bible, and was chiefly anxious to find for it a place in the hearts of oth ers. The controversial writings of the day he read with great pleas ure, on account of the clearer light they shed upon the sacred page.

" 2. His intercourse with men,— especially the sick. For a few years past Dr. Foote has been eminently a practical Christian. Every day he has been engaged in his Master's cause. He has been a living epis tle, known and read of all men. How often has he dropped a word in the ear of the impenitent, ^calculated to arrest their attention, and lead them to Christ. How often has he given caution and warning to straying brethren, and urged them to the path of duty. To many he has come home with the prophet's fidelity, describing their sins, and saying,— Thou art the man. Has he found one sinking in discourage ment ? How ready has he been to fill him with hope, and animate him in the cause of God. For the sick he always had a seasonable word. Never have 1 felt the value of piety in a physician so much as since I became acquainted with Dr. Foote. He has been a good pastor as well as physician. He was apt to teach. His conversation was generally with grace, and this showed the state of the fountain from which it pro-

APPENDIX. 321

ceeded. He spoke to us while alive: being dead lie yet speaketh. Take heed how ye hear.

" 3. His firmness. Dr. Foote was never wanting in decision of char acter. Whenever he devoted himself to an object, he was untiring in its pursuit, and generally successful in attaining it. But formerly he was often hasty and fitful in his decisions, so that firmness was no ex cellence in his character. In the latter part of his life, there was an evident change in this respect. When a question was proposed, he was cool and deliberate in considering it. He looked at it in every point of light to know what was duty. When that was discovered, his face was

from ostentation. In his dress for his simplicity. Every thing about him was neat and comfortable, but plain and simple. In his charities he did not wish to be seen of men. Often has he been, pri vately, and put a Jive or ten dollar bill to a contribution that had been taken up in public, and of which he had given a good proportion. Thus was he unwilling to let his left hand know what his right hand was doing.

" He made no boastful displays of his learning, or of any of his superior advantages. He was familiar with all. He was respectful to all. He was complaisant with all. He seemed to feel that he had nothing which he did not receive. He was sensible of his faults, and often spoke of them, but his merits were passed in silence. No one, I presume, would say, that of late, he thought more highly of himself than he ought to think.

"5. He was a man of general benevolence. To every good object he was friendly. If he had objections to any object or institution, he would state them. If they were removed, well ; if not, he would assist if good were to be accomplished. He did not expect perfection in any human scheme, and was not, therefore, searching for defects to find reasons for neglect. It was enough to know, that good was to be done, then his heart and hand were open.

'" His general benevolence also appeared in the interest he manifested lor all classes of men. His efforts for the instruction of the aged, show his feelings towards them. They are not left without a witness.

" For the young, also, his heart glowed with a father's love. How often he addressed them with all the sympathy and fervency of a com panion. How earnestly has he urg^ed them forward to every good work. The young, both male and Temale, will bear me witness, that no one could rivet their attention, instruct and interest them more than Dr. Foote. All loved him. and he loved all.

"6. He was possessed of charity. Though sometimes inclined to severity in remarking on the character and conduct of others, he would check himself and say, we do not make proper allowances for early ed ucation, habits and circumstances. He was particularly tender ot the reputation of Ministers and private Christians. He was slow to indulge in suspicion,— he would not take an evil report against them without abundant reasons. WThen observing his caution on this subject, I have often thought of that charily which thinketh no evil: rejoicelh not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth.

" 7. His regard for (he institutions of God. He was scrupulous in the observance of the Sabbath. This appears from what has been said of his exercises Saturday evening, and on the Sabbath. He was ex emplary in keeping the Sabbath day holy. Of the importance of this duty he often spoke in the meetings of the church, and on other occa-

SAMUEL ALFRED FOOTE,

SAMUEL ALFRED FOOTE, son of John and Mary Foote, was born De cember 17, 1790. He resided wilh his parents at Watertown, (Conn.,) until the month of September, 1805, when he went to live with his elder brother Ebenezer, who then resided at Troy, Rensellaer County, (N. Y.) After spending a little more than a year in his brother's Law office, he was sent by his brother to school, at Union College. He en tered the Grammar School of that College in December, 1806,— entered the Freshman Class in September, 1807, and was graduated in July, 1811. He read Law for nearly a year after leaving College, which he did in December, 1810, with James Thompson, Esq., of Milton, Sara toga County, (N. Y.,) and then entered his brother's office in Albany, his brother then residing in that city. He was admitted an Attorney n the Supreme Court ol the State of New-York, in January, 1813, and a Counselor, in January, 1816. He entered into partnership with his brother, on being admitted an Attorney. He practised Law in Albany until May, 1828, when he removed to the city of New-York. He was appointed District Attorney for the city and county of Albany, under the administration of Governor Clinton, in July, 1819, and held the office until February, 1821, when he was removed to make room lor the Hon. Benjamin F. Butler, who was appointed in his place. Mr. Foote's professional career is well known.

REV. JOSEPH I. FOOTE, D. D.

Rev JOSEPH I. FOOTE was born in Watertown, (Conn.,) November 7, 1796. We have no information of his early life and education, until he graduated at Union College, (N. Y.,) in 1821. He fitted himself for the Christian Ministry at the Theological Seminary at Andover, (Mass.,) wThere he spent three years. In 1826, on the 25th of October, he was installed Pastor of the Congregational Church and Society at West-Brookh'eld, (Mass.,) in which r.elation he resided there until May 1, 1832. In the year following he was called to the charge of the Church at Salina, (N. Y.,) where he resided until 1835, when he re moved to Courtland, in the same State, where he continued to labor in the ministry until 1837. In 1839. he removed to Knoxville, East Ten nessee, to the pastoral charge of the Church in that place. Here his reputation as a scholar and divine, arrested the attention of the corpo ration of Washington College, in that section of the State, who confer red upon him the degree of D. D., and tendered him early in 1840, the presidency of that Institution. This College was the first incorporated west of the Alleganies. It dates back to 1794, and within its walls were educated many of the most distinguished professional men in the Southern and Western States. Doct. lJ"oote, after consulting the ad vice of his friend?, accepted the presidency, and on the 9th of April, 1840, left Knoxville on a visit to the seat of the College in Washington County. On his way, he preached on the Sabbath, April 12, at Rogers- ville, from a part of the apostolic benediction,—" The communion of the Holy Ghost be with you all/'— and on the following Sunday, at New- Providence, from another part, " The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all." These labors were his last, and seem prophetic of his end. On the 20th, as he was continuing his journey, he was thrown from his horse, near Leesburg, and received such injury that he ex pired on the following day, twenty hours after his fall, the day prece ding that on which he was to be inaugurated President of the College, and enter on a new and wide career of usefulness.

APPENDIX. 323

The following summary of Doct. Foote's character is taken from a Biographical Sketch of him, published soon after his death.

" By this mysterious and afflictive dispensation of Providence, the Church of Christ has lost a bright and shining light— the cause of liter ature and science, an illustrious and efficient advocate and patron a large circle of friends and acquaintances, their pride and ornament— and a fond and devoted wife, a kind and affectionate guide and protector.

" As a faithful, zealous, and evangelical preacher, Doct. Foote had few equals, and perhaps no superiors. As a theologian, he was tho roughly conversant with the various systems of faith embraced by the different denominations in the Christian Church. As a controvertist, he made no compromise with essential error, either in the doctrines or order of the church; but with that boldness and intrepidity which char acterized the Fathers of the Reformation, he combated whatever he believed to conflict with the plain canons of' Scripture, or to stand in opposition to the advancement of a pure, practical and evangelical re ligion. As a scholar and writer, he stood pre-eminently high ; and the frequent contributions of his pen to the New-York Literary and Theo logical Review, and other periodicals of equal celebrity, have placed him on an eminence in polemic and didactic theology, to which but few can, writh confidence, aspire. In his intercourse with the world, he was frank and undisguised— an instructive and sociable companion— a candid, sincere, unaffected, and sympathizing friend ; and in his domes tic circle, a very pattern of tenderness and affection."

The address which Dr. Foote had prepared to deliver on the occa sion of his inauguration was published immediately after his death. In this address he advocates the claims of the College in a very able manner. The following extract shows his sympathy with the poor, to whose doors he would carry the means of the highest intellectual im provement.

" A prominent motive in extending the operations of the College, is the education of the poor. I use not this term in reproach. Who, almost in the whole circle of distinguished schools, has not been indi gent ? If from the lists of those who have been distinguished officers in Colleges, or pre-eminent in the profession of Law, Medicine or Divini ty, or celebrated for their attainments in science— if from these lists we were to strike out the names of those who were originally indigent, how small then would be the remainder? Nor is this scarcely less true of the many who have risen to the principal places of honor in the several states and even in the nation itself.

" There is a disposition in the community to compound indigence with ignominy, and to treat the poor as if they were criminal ; no other ten dency is so injurious to the general elevation of society, or to our Re publican institutions. It is, indeed, an affecting fact, that scarcely a son of the indolent, the worthless and the immoral, has ever risen to eminence in our country. The habitations of vileness engrave their own character so legibly on their children, that it is rarely, or never, obliterated. By far the greater portion of those, who in our country have been denominated poor, are entirely competent to sustain their families at home. They are honest. Their morals are without a stain. They are beloved by all their neighbors Their children are trained in every virtue. They are the joy of their parents, and the delight of their wealthy neighbors. If instead of undertaking to procure an edu cation in the liberal arts and sciences, they were to apply themselves to agriculture, to merchandise, or to any ordinary employment, it is un questionable, that competence and perhaps wealth would soon smile around them. But if instead of limiting their circle of usefulness by these boundaries, their minds contemplate a wide range of operation; if instead of growing up with the rapidity of the poplar, they endeavor to acquire the solidity and the expansion of the oak ; if their hearts are fixed on being widely and permanently useful to the human race, such aspirations in the youthful bosoms, ought to be hailed by the communi ty. Facilities ought to be provided for the development of such desires

and faculties. With steady and persevering industry, these minds will soon shine with a lustre equal to that of the prince in his court, or the sons of the rich in their palaces.

" They will, indeed, outshine all those whose industry is riot of the most stern and enduring kind. Time would fail me to recount by name the distinguished men who, from an honorable poverty in childhood, have risen by persevering industry and economy to the very summit of literary and professional excellence Excluded from participating in the commercial affairs of the country, the commodities of the agricul turist cannot be made to yield him those pecuniary returns which reward the husbandmen of other regions. Hence, many whose home is blessed with abundance, can procure but limited means to sustain themselves or their children abroad. For such individuals, this institution has always been an asylum; and while she has educated her full share of the rich and the honorable, she has always been the patron of the hon est and the obscure. In this she will persevere. It is undeniable, that greater facilities than any now enjoyed in these regions for acquiring an education, can here be offered at a comparatively small expense. The door will always be opened for the admission of the moral, indus trious and persevering sons of the community to enter. Equally with the heirs of the opulent, will it be our delight to train those who cannot otherwise be prepared for extensive usefulness. In this country, neither honor nor office is hereditary. Every boy is born a candidate for the Presidency of the United States. Thus the sons of the rich and the poor are equally permitted to run. ' But one receiveth the prize ;' the son of an obscure minister of the gospel, or of a laborer in bricks and mortar, or of a lonely widow, is as likely as any other one to sit in Washington's seat and administer the government of his country."

During his connexion with the Church at West-Brookfield, Dr. Foote prepared and delivered " An Historical Discourse" on the occa sion of the annual Thanksgiving, November 27, 1828, which was pub lished. This discourse exhibits much p*atient research, and is full of interesting facts relating to the settlement and early history of Brook- field, and breathes an affectionate and grateful spirit towards the fathers of the town and of New-England. It concludes with impressing on the present generation the duty not only of preserving but of increas ing the means of civil and religious liberty which has come down to us from our ancestors.

" A review of the dispensations of Providence is calculated to impress our minds with the importance of increasing, as well as perpetuating the blessings which we enjoy. Had not pur ancestors acted on this prin ciple, they would have remained in subjection to an oppressive prelacy. They would never have crossed the mighty deep, to seek an asylum in the western Hemisphere. They would never have taken up their abode in the immense wilderness of America. Had those who first arrived in this place, been content with a bare subsistence and with the lew privileges which they then enjoyed, the forest would still have covered these hills and plains. These fields would never have been cul tivated. These dwellings would never have been erected. These houses for the instruction of children and youth would never have been reared. These cheerful villages would not have risen. These tem ples for the worship of Jehovah would never have been built. It was care for those who should come after them, that chiefly influenced our ancestors to cultivate the soil and to lay deep and broad the foundations of literary and ecclesiastical institutions. It was the regard of each succeeding generation for the welfare of posterity, that has caused these blessings to accumulate in their descent to us. And shall we be content to hand down to the next generation only the inheritance which was left to us by our fathers ? Is it enough that we preserve the rights and privileges which we have received? Shall the stream of civil and religious blessings, which in passing each generation became broader and deeper, receive no tributaries from us? Can we do nothing to ad vance to that state of perfection at which it is destined eventually to

APPENDIX. 325

arrive, ' when nation shall no more lift up sword against nation,' and when there shall be nothing to molest or intimidate throughput the wide extent of God's earthly dominions ? Shall the wheel of civil and intellectual and moral improvement, which during two centuries has been increasing its rapidity, instead of receiving additional impulse, be retarded by our generation? O let gratitude for the blessings which we inherit, impel us to make efforts for the good of those who shall come after us. Let us endeavor to leave some memorials of our regard for future ages ; and when our bodies shall have mingled with the dust, and our. very names been forgotten, may those ' who arise and declare' the ' mighty acts of the Lord,' h'nd amongst their occasions of thank fulness/ that their blessings were augmented by our generation."

SAMUEL AUGUSTUS FOOTE.

SAMUEL AUGUSTUS FOOTE, of Cheshire, Connecticut, was born on the 8th day of November, 1780. Though of a delicate constitution, in childhood and youth, he prepared for and graduated at Yale College before he was seventeen years of age. He subsequently pursued the study of the law with the late Judge Reeve, at Litchfield, until declin ing health compelled him to relinquish the cherished purpose of enter ing the legal profession. He commenced business at N ew Haven, in the West India trade, in 1803. In this business he continued, occasion ally taking a voyage, for the double purpose of benefitting his health and his pecuniary affairs, until about the year 1813, when the wrar and the declining health of his father induced him to retire to Cheshire, where he resided upon the estate where he was born, until the period of his own death, which occurred on the 16th of September, 1846.

From the early part of the year 1817 to the year 1835, he was in pub lic life. During this time he was repeatedly a Member and Speaker of the House of Representatives of Connecticut, elected to the Senate of that State, a Member of the House of Representatives and of the Sen ate of the United States, Governor of the State and subsequently in 1844, one of her Presidential Electors. When a member of the Senate of the United States, he introduced the resolution which still bears his name, -and on which Webster and Hayne made the splendid efforts wThich signalized themselves and the American Senate. While Gov ernor of the State, Mr. Foote received the degree of LL. D. from the College where he graduated, and in his last protracted illness, he en joyed the like filial attention which, under similar circumstances, he had bestowed upon his own father.

The Rev. Edward Bull, formerly a Tutor in Yale College, but who had resided at Cheshire, and been the intimate friend of Governor Foote for several years previous to his decease, thus speaks of his pub lic and private character.

Governor Foote was for a long period employed almost constantly in the service of the public. There is scarcely any office in the gift of his fellow citizens which they did not confer on him. He was successively a member of the House of Representatives, Speaker and Governor of the State, and occupied seats in both houses of Congress. In all the important business of his native town, he was sure to be employed, whenever his services could be obtained, and they were never declined to save his own time or labor, when his exertions could advance the in terest of the public or individuals.

That which specially strikes us as characteristic and distinguishing in Gov Foote as a public man, is his integrity, industry, decision and perseverance. These qualities are the foundation of his success, and of the confidence which he secured in the community. He was eminently in all his views and aims, a practical statesman. What he decided to be right and expedient, he ever firmly adhered to. What he aimed to

326 APPENDIX.

accomplish, he labored at as a working man, systematically and perse- veringly. His measures might not always be approved, but the honest convictions by which he held, and the fearless fidelity and honest zeal with which he pursued them, was never questioned by any who knew him.

He was, at least a portion of his life, a warm party man, but no party drill could ever bring him to give his vote for a measure wrhich he had denounced as unwise and inexpedient. No man ever more utterly re.- pudiated the doctrine that offices are the mere spoils which are acquired by the successful competitor. The principle to which he ever, adhered is that those who receive the honors and emoluments of office, are debtors to their constituents to the full amount of a faithful devotion of their time and talents to their official duties. To this principle he con scientiously conformed his own conduct, both in the general business of legislation, and in prosecuting and securing the rights of such as en trusted him with their claims. To this last remark, I doubt not some who read this will bear testimony by the recollection of such services, gratuitously rendered to themselves or their friends.

Gfov. Foote was an exemplary and consistent member of the Congre gational Church and Society of Cheshire, of which, (embracing a period of nearly a century,) his father and grandfather were successively Pas tors. Here, as well as in all his social relations, his influence was ex tensive, and exerted to promote the ends of the gospel,— truth, order, harmony, Christian morality and true godliness.

In his family every thing was conducted by a uniform system of order, and a frank and generous hospitality maintained towards his friends. As a father, though he gave no countenance to that laxness of paren tal restraint which is so common at this day, yet no one ever made home more pleasant, and dearer to his children, nor received from them more unequivocal tokens of their love and reverence.

The loss of such a man is at all times a public calamity, and will be painfully felt far beyond the circle of his own family connexions. Such is the feeling of this community in contemplating the decease of Gov. Foote. Disease had indeed sensibly impaired the vigor ofhis faculties, and given solern,n warning to himself and friends of what was to come. Death had been at work so insidiously and fatally at his victim, that perhaps his best friends might say that he came not too hastily to finish what he had begun. But he has taken one whose virtues and long ser vices have endeared him to the community, and whose memory will be affectionately cherished.

ELIAL TODU FOOTE, M. D.

ELIAL TODD FOOTE, son of Deacon Samuel Foote and of Sibbil his wife, daughter of Oliver Doolittle, of Hinsdale, (N. H-,) was born in Gill, (Mass.,) on the first day of May, 1796. He received his elementary education in Sherburne, (N. Y.,) where he pursued his medical studies with U rs. Farrel and Guthrie, and attended practical lectures in medicine and surgery in the city of New-York, in 1814 and 1S15, and received a Medical Diploma. He located himself in the county of Chautauque, (N. Y.) in the spring of 1815, where he commenced and continued the practice ofhis profession for upwards of twenty years. He was not allowed by his fellow citizens to discharge merely the duties of one laborious profession, but was appointed by the Governor and Council to the office of Associate Judge of the Court of Common Pleas, and after the adoption of the Con stitution in 1821, he was elected to Presiding Judge, which office he held by re-appointment under various administrations, every five years, for twenty years. On declining are-appointment in 1843, Judge Foote gave to the Grand Jury, at the opening of the Court at the February

session, some interesting reminiscences of the county in which he resided, which were published at the time in the papers of the county. As these reminiscences relate to the county, to whose growth and prosperity the enterprise of Judge Foqte has largely contributed, I shall insert them in this connection. It is also due to Judge Foote's deserved popularity in the section of the country where he resided, to copy the proceedings of the Court and the Bar of the judicial society with which he was so long and so usefully connected.

Having understood that the family have procured an engraved copy of the portrait of Judge Foote, I have obtained permission to introduce the same into this book. The compiler did hope to illustrate his work with several other portraits; but with the exception of this, and the portrait of Mrs. Sarah Louisa Taylor, he has not been successful in his application.

In 1845, Judge Foote removed to New-Haven, Connecticut, where he has resumed the practice of his profession. Of the living, it becomes me not further to speak.

From the Westfield (N. Y.) Messenger of March 8, 1843.

REMINISCENCES. At the February term of the court, Judge Foote, in giving his charge to the Grand Jury, stated that as it was the last time in which he should meet them in his judicial capacity, he would im prove the occasion by calling up a few reminiscences of the early history of the county ; and proceeded to state what, in substance, we are ena bled to embody in this article. He said, that

Within about fifty years the entire " Western New-York, including the city of Utica on the east, and this county on the west, (250 miles long,) was comprised in the town of Whitestown, of which the late Judge Platt, of Whitesboro, was the Supervisor. That the same ter ritory comprised about one-half of the counties in the State, and a pop ulation of over one million of inhabitants, including three cities. That so late as 1801 all of this State lying west of Genesee river, including this county, Erie, Niagara, Orleans, Genesee, Wyoming, Cattaraugus, and a large share of the counties of Monroe and Livingston, formed the town of Northampton, Ontario county; and that subsequently this county formed a small part of the town of Batavia, Genesee county. Forty years since, this county was barely surveyed into (six miles square) townships, without a white family in the county. The settle ment of this county was commenced in 1803 by Col. James McMaham and others, while the entire territory of our county was a wilderness, far remote from old settlements. This county, exclusive of the tenth range of townships, was first formed into one town, Chautauque, Gen esee county, in 1804. At that time there was not a magistrate in this county, and a Justice of the Peace was called from east of Buffalo, (seventy-five miles,) to administer the oaths of office to the first elected town officers. We now have 100 Justices of the Peace in the county.

In 1808, this county was by law conditionally incorporated, and the town of Chautauque was divided into two towns, and Pomfret was organized, including the east part of our county. By the act of 1808, the territory of this county for judicial and other county purposes was to constitute a part of Niagara county, whose seat ol justice was at Buffalo, until the territory of our county should contain 500 electors. In 1811 the Supervisors of the towns of Chautauque and Pomfret, (Judges Matthew Pendergast and Philo Orton,) certified to Governor Tompkins that there was a requisite number of electors to authorize the county to be fully organized, and the Governor and Council ap pointed J. dicial and other county officers for this county, and our first court was held at an Inn inMayville, in June, 1811. Our former court house and jail was not in a situation to be occupied until 1814. The late war with England commenced the year after our organization, and owing to sparse population, frontier location and almost constant alarms, emigration to our county pretty much ceased, while many left the county, and probably there was no increase of population during the war. Some of our citizens fell in battle— one of them, (Bracket,) a

328 APPENDIX.

lawyer who was admitted to our bar at the first court. Emigration to our county re-commenced after the close of the war in 1815, and the smiles of peace gave a new impetus to the settlement of our county. That in the latter part of 1816 he was appointed a member of the court, and in June, 1^17, (twenty-five years^ago last June,) he first took a sta tion on the bench. That the entire county then contained, (probably,) a less population than the present town of Pomfret in our county. There was then but six resident attorneys in our county, Messrs. Houghton, Potter, Price, Averill, Mullet and Brown,— two of them deceased, two from age and ill health have pretty much retired from the profession, while two of them still remain among our most active and honored members of the bar. The county then contained but three Post Offices, now about fifty. Then but one mail route through our county, which was from Buffalo via Mayville to Erie, and the mail was transported once a week on horseback, and many of our citizens were compelled to send thirty miles to the nearest Post Office, for letters or papers. No paper published in our county— now we have five. At that time our roads were very bad, and not a steamboat on our western lakes or rivers. The second boat has already been put in operation on our beau tiful Chautauque Lake, the highest body of water in the United States, if not in the whole world, on which a steamboat plies. Our western lakes which have with propriety been called inland seas, now abound with steamboats, some of which in season of ria/igation, daily arrive at our ports on lake Erie. Now we have daily or tri-weekly stages through almost every section of our county Our citizens instead of winding their way on foot or on horseback by blind paths or almost im passable roads to court, now travel by steamboats, post coaches or their own pleasure carriages.

The District (Prosecuting) Attorney was John C. Spencer, of Canan- daigua, the present Secretary of war, whose District then comprised the counties of Ontario, Genesee, Niagara and Chautauque, with a population of 92,000. The same territory now embraces eleven coun ties, with two cities, and a population of nearly half a million, of which our county has furnished more than her proportion of the increase.

It is believed that not over thirty-two years since, there was not more than one building west of Genesee river, (a very ordinary one at Caledonia,) occupied exclusively for a church,— none in the present cities of Rochester or Buffalo. How changed the scene. The sound of the " church-going bell" instead of the shrill war whoop of the sav age. Our common schools have recently become organized agreeably to law, and there was not an academy west of Canandaigua for hun dreds of miles. Now we have over three hundred school-houses in this county, five incorporated academies, and over 17,000 youths are annu ally instructed in our academies and schools ; that our county contained a population, that for intelligence, industry, morals and integrity, would compare favorably with any other,— a population of which her citizens had reason to be proud. The increase of crime has not kept pace with our population, and our county compares favorably with any other. Our first Circuit Court and Court of Oyer and Terminer was held by the late Chief Justice Spencer, in 1817, when usage required an escort of a sheriff and constables with their staves from the lodgings of the presiding Judge to the court house. This practice was discontinued by the late Judge Van Ness, at the June circuit in 1820. The present number of practising attorneys in our county, is not far from forty, although about one hundred have been admitted to our bar since* the organization of our county, but many have emigrated elsewhere.

We then had a two story, shammy, wooden, inconvenient, uncom fortable court house, the lower story occupied as a jail, and residence of the jailer and his family. Our records were kept in the dwelling house of the clerk, constantly exposed to destruction, and the house in which they were kept until the present office was built, has since been destroyed by fire. Now we have one of the most durable, commodious, and pleasant court houses in the state, and with our jail, fire proof clerk's office, and our county poor house with its farm, do honor to our

APPENDIX. 329

county. Very few counties have public buildings equal in appearance, convenience and durability, to those of Chautauque county. At that time our Grand Jurors served without fee or reward, and our Petit Jurors for the pitiful compensation of twenty-five cents for each civil cause, in which they should render a verdict. Justice has finally pre vailed, and both Grand and Petit Jurors receive from the county treas ury a daily compensation and for travel, and it was to be hoped the day was not far distant when a more just compensation would be extended to witnesses in all cases. Our towns have trebled in number, and nu merous villages have sprung up as if by magic. In 1817, and until after the adoption of the new constitution in 1821, this county with Niagara and Cattaraugus, formed an Assembly District, electing two members of assembly. Since that the population of the same territory has in creased from 14 to 170,000, and now comprises four counties and elects ten members of Assembly. When he first went to the Legislature from the old Assembly District, in 1819, there was no mail stage west of Buffalo, and but a miserable stage wagon, a part of the way east of Buffalo, and the most rapid mail stage from Buffalo to Albany was five days on the route, making a most tedious journey of seven days from Jamestown to Albany. Now the same route is performed in a little over two days with comparative ease and at much less expense.

The construction of the Erie canal and other facilities of transporta tion has banished the six horse teams from our roads and reduced transportation from New- York to our county from $4 or $5 per hun dred to less than $1, while the price of salt and some other indispensa ble articles has been reduced more than three-fourths.

Our population has increased from a little over 4,000 to about 50,000, while much good land remains to be settled. Hours might be occupied in brief reminiscences on the changes that have taken place, but time would not permit

Oi'the Judges with whom he had been associated, three were now deceased, whose friendship he should ever hold in grateful recollection, and the time, at the longest, was not far distant when it would be said of him and his associates as it now was of them, they are gone. That during the last twenty-five years there was no county m the State where there had been a more harmonious bench and bar. The corres pondence between them had been uniformly marked with much kind ness arid respect; and during the severe political strifes through which the people had passed, bickerings between the members of the Court, or between the Court and Bar, had never been permitted to invade the sanctuary of Justice. Mutual kind feelings and respect had prevailed, and in taking leave of his fellows on the Bench and members of the Bar, with whom he had been so long associated, he left them as he hoped to leave the wprlcl, in peace and friendship, without any differences to adjust. That in retiring from the Bench he should do violence to his own feelings not to tender his hearty and unfeigned thanks for their uniform confi dence and kindness ; and although he was about to cease his associa tions with them in an official capacity, yet he should never cease to cherish the kind feelings that have so long existed, or to invoke pros perity and honor to follow their footsteps.

From the Mayville Sentinel.

JUDGES FOOTE AND CAMPBELL. The Grand Jurors of the county of Chautauque, having learned from Hon. E. T. Foote, in his charge to us, at the present term of this Court that he now retires from the bench, having served as Judge for five years, and for four successive terms or twenty years, as First Judge ; do take the liberty to ttesolve, That we wish to bear testimony, and do acknowledge with respect, the ability, fidelity and promptness and impartiality with which he has discharged his judicial duties, and we regret, that circumstances are such that he declines a re-appointment.

Resolved, unanimously, That there is a respect due to official station, and when an incumbent retires from that station, having for a fourth 42

330 APPENDIX.

of a century been endeared to us by a friendly and honorable intercourse, that it is with regret we witness the separation of the bond which has so long united us together, and which is now to be severed, and prob ably forever.

ftesolved, unanimously, That it is desirable that a portrait of Judge Foote be placed in this Court room, to the end that when we retire from the busy scenes of life, and this bench and these seats shall be oc cupied by those who succeed us, they may have the pleasure of behold ing the likeness of those who have been pioneers in the judiciary of our country, and who have borne the responsibilities of office, with dignity and usefulness, and who have shared in the toils and privations of a country in its infancy, but now grown to a vigorous manhood.

This Grand Jury being also informed, that His Honor, Thomas B. Campbell retires from the bench of this Court at the close of the pres ent term, after a service of seventeen years, do Resolve, That it is with pleasure we improve this opportunity to manifest to the world, our high sense of his sterling integrity, practical good sense, urbanity of manners, and fidelity, and do regret that the citizens of this county, whom we represent, are now to be deprived of the benefits of his expe rience, ability and worth.

Resolved, unanimously, That it is our request, that the above reso lutions, be filed by the Clerk, and entered on the minutes of the Court, and that Judges Foote and Campbell be furnished with copies of the same.

Dated at Mayville, February 18, 1843.

MAYVILLE, February 16, 1843. To Hon. E. T. Foote, First Judge of Chautauque county, New- York.

DEAR SIR, As you are about to retire from the bench of our county, after having held a seat thereon for nearly twenty-five years, and for the last twenty years as First Judge of said county, the duties and re sponsibilities of which station have been ably, faithfully, and honestly discharged, with honor to yourself and to the general satisfaction and approbation of your associates on the bench, and members of the bar, and officers of the Court, and the public generally:

The following resolution was unanimously adopted at a County Convention of Demo cratic Delegates from the several towns, assembled at the court house in Mayville, the 17th of December, 1842 :

" Whereas, the Hon. Elial T. Foote ? and the Hon. Thomas B. Campbell have, by respectful communications made to this Convention, declined a re-nomination to the offices which they have so long and ably filled : be it therefore Resolved, That this Convention, represent ing as it does, not only the sentiments and feelings of the Democratic party, but on this occasion, as we believe, the undivided opinion of the great body of citizens of the county, regardless of party divisions and feelings, are called upon to tender, which we do from a just sense and obligation of duty as well as pride, our acknowledgments to them for the prompt, dignified and efficient discharge of their duties as Judges for a long series of years, and cannot permit the occasion of such sepa ration to pass without this sincere and just tribute to their distinguished talents and services as officers, and their high moral worth as men, and that they will carry with them into retirement our best wishes for their future health and prosperity."

At the annual meeting of the Chautauque County Medical Society, held at their room in the court house in the village of Mayville, in said county, on the 23d day of June, 1847, the following resolutions were unanimously adopted :

Resolved, that while we regret the absence of Dr. E. T. Foote, M. D. from our county, we tender him our cordial thanks for his scientific and philanthropic course, while for many years he has been a leading mem ber of this society, and extensively engaged in the practice of Physic and Surgery among us ; he has our best wishes for success in whatever place he may be located. His moral worth and scientific attainments entitle him to the confidence of all who require his professional aid.

Resolved, that a copy of the foregoing resolution with the seal of the Society attached, be presented to Dr. E. T. Foote, M. D. signed by the President, and attested by the Secretary.

In witness whereof I have hereunto set my name and affixed the corporate seal of said Society, this 23d day of June, 1847.

DOCT. LYMAN FOOTE.

DOCT. LYMAN FOOTE, of Sacket's Harbor, (N. Y.,) was born in Wallingford, 1796. Professor Benjamin Silliman, of Yale College, in whose family he resided lor eight years, took great interest in his early education, and in his subsequent career. After receiving his de gree of Doctor of Medicine at Yale College, in 1816, and after a brief practice in his profession in a country town in Connecticut, he received in August, 1818, from Hon. John C. Calhqun, who was at that time Secretary of War, an appointment as assistant Surgeon in the army of the United States. In due course of service, Dpct. Foote was pro moted to the rank of Surgeon in 1831, and at the time of his death, he was fourth in rank in the army. He was in active service in the Black Hawk, Florida and Mexican War, and during the progress of the last died at Port Lavacca, in Texas, on the 24th of October, 1846.

He sustained the reputation of an able Physician and Surgeon, and an excellent man.

THE labor of the Compiler of this Genealogy is about to close, and he commits the results of his widely extended investigations and correspondence to the charitable judgment of all who trace their descent from Nathaniel Foote, one of the first Settlers of Wethersfield, (Conn.,) and to all others who are interested in the name of Foote, and in the Genealogy and Antiquities of New- England generally. He is conscious of having spared no pains to ascertain with perfect accuracy every fact introduced in these pages, but as his information has been drawn from various sources, from the dim and dusty records of more than forty Towns, of not less than twenty Courts of Probate, of several Churches, besides the Records of the Colonies of Connecticut and New-Haven, from the inscriptions of more than five hundred tomb stones, from innumerable documents, memoranda and let ters written in every variety of penmanship, and having an abun dance of merit, except that of legibility, it will not be strange if occasional errors in names and dates should be detected. To any one who will find and communicate to the Compiler, any such error, or will supply any deficiency in any and every respect, he will make his grateful acknowledgments, and will enter the cor rections and additional information in his own copy, which shall be at the service of any one who may in some future day under take to publish a new edition of this work.

360 ADDENDUM.

ADDENDUM.

As the last sheet of this work was being prepared for the press, I received letters from Sylvester Judd, Esq., of Northampton, (Mass.,) dated September 18, and October 1, 1849, in which he notes entries which he had found on the ancient public Records at Springfield, and at Northampton, relating to the family name of the wife of the second Nathaniel Foote, an enquiry which I had been unable by my own ex aminations, satisfactorily to settle. These entries establish the fact, that her name was Elizabeth Smith, and that she was daughter of Lieut. Samuel Smith, one of the first settlers of Wethersfield, (Conn.,) and Hadley, (Mass.) Her brother, Lieut. Philip Smith, married Fran ces Foote, sister of the said Nathaniel Foote. The readers of this work, are, therefore requested to substitute the following for the arti cle at the head of the family of Mr. Foote, No. 1, page 47, viz :

1.

NATHANIEL FOOTE, of Wethersfield, (Conn.,) was married to Elizabeth Smith, daughter of Lieut. Samuel Smith, of the same town, afterwards of Hadley, (Mass.,) 1646. After his death she was again married to William Gull, first of Wethersfield, after wards of Hatfield, (Mass.,) by whom she had four children, Mary and Anna, born in Wethersfield ; and Esther and Mercy, born in Hatfield, viz : Esther, born November 21, 1665, and Mercy, June 27, 1668. Mr. Gull died in 1701.

Mr. Nathaniel Foote died in the year 1655, aged 34 years.

Mrs. Elizabeth Foote, alias Gull, survived her last husband, and died .
