' ' Other changes which were thought necessary to the welfare of the country-
were instituted. The ridings were aboHshed and the province divided into coun-
ties, Newtown being included in Queen's County, which still remains as then or-
ganized. In these, full provision was made for sustaining the demands of justice ;
the Court of Sessions was to meet twice a year, and the Court of Oyer aud Term-
iner annually. And in each town a primitive tribunal entitled the commissioners'
court was ordered to be held on the first Wednesday in every month, ' for the
hearing and determining of small causes, and cases of debt and trespass, to the
value of forty shillings or under, ' taking the place of the Overseers' Court. The
form of town government was further modified by the introduction of the oflS.ce
of assessor and supervisor, the latter to have the supervision of the public aiiairs
and expenditures of the town. Of these, two of each continued to be annually
chosen in Newtown for some years after. The laws establishing these ofifices and
the Court of Commissioners was passed on November ist.
' ' On the publication of these laws, the people of Newtown testified their high
gratification by seasonable measures to carry them into eflfect. On January 15,
1684, they elected Jonathan Hazard, Gershom Moore, and Samuel Moore, ' com-
missioners to sit as a town court, to try all causes of difference between man and
man, as shall come before them.' Two days after, the commissioners appeared
before Justice Elias Doughty,* and took the oath of oflSce, at which time also,
Theophilus Phillipsf was chosen clerk of the court and marshal. By a law passed
November 4, 1685, the j urisdiction of this court was extended to causes of ^5, or
under, and to be in force seven years and no longer, but before the expiration of
this period, the court of commissioners had ceased to exist. ' '
Samuel Moore held the ofEce of Commissioner of the Town Court from
January 15, 1684-85 ; 1686-87 ; 1688-89. He was also elected Supervisor Feb-
ruary 28, 1684; January 27, 1687 ; June 27, 1691.
" The expectations of an enlightened liberty, awakened in 1683, had ended
in fell disappointment, the course of events having fully proved that the advances
then made towards a popular government were designed merely to conciliate pub-
lic feeling. After the third annual assembly these popular bodies were expressly
prohibited by the Duke of York, J who, having ascended the throne of England,
under the title of James II, disclosed his true character in his endeavor to estab-
lish an arbitrary government here, and introduce the Roman Catholic religion
among the Protestant inhabitants of New York by the appointment of papists to
the principal of&ces of trust and influence. The state of things in Europe clothed
these designs with terror. There the sword of persecution was unsheathed.
England still bled under its stroke, and I,ouis XIV had but just revoked the edict
of Nantes, whereby the Protestants of France were again subjected to prison and
the stake, or sought security in flight, a considerable number of these exiled
Huguenots seeking a home in this province. With these facts fresh in mind, and
the 'victims of papal intolerance before their eyes, the intelligent people became
greatly alarmed for the safety of their country and religion.
' ' Such was the gloomy posture of affairs at New York, in 1689, when the pub-
lic mind was suddenly and happily relieved by the news of the abdication of James
II and the succession of William and Mary, who were Protestants, to the throne
of England. The citizens of New York, regarding with suspicion the minions of
King James, who yet held the reins of the provincial government, and incited by a
report, then current, that the Cathohcs intended to rise and massacre the Protes-
tants, assembled in arms, on June 2nd, seized the fort, and placing at their head
Capt.' Jacob Eeisler, a respected merchant, and commander of one of the train
bands, undertook the government of the province, in the name of King William. §

lace at New York, were no less rejoiced at the news of the revolution in England,
and the fall of the unprincipled James ; while, for the most part, they heartily
acquiesced in the popular movements j ust mentioned. At a meeting of part of the
inhabitants, held on June nth, Capt. Richard Betts and Lieut. Samuel Moore
were delegated to a convention to be held in the city, with instructions " to act
as they should see cause for the good and benefit of the country. ' ' The town
further resolved, June 15th, to provide and maintain two soldiers to strengthen
the garrison at New York. They also sent delegates to Jamaica, for the purpose
of electing two persons to represent the county in a Committee of Safety,* which
it was proposed to form for the direction of public affairs at this criticaljuncture.
One of the members of said committee, chosen for Queen's, was "loyal Mr.
Samuel Edsall," of Newtown, who was thus styled because of his warm attach-
ment to the cause of the revolution, and the leading part that he acted.
' ' The Committee of Safety, having convened at New York on June 26th, ap-
pointed Capt. Leisler commander-in-chief of the Province, and instituted such
regulations as were deemed requisite to preserve the public peace and security,
including sundry changes in the civil and military departments. Pursuant to or-
ders, the people of Newtown proceeded to a new election of town officers, October
2d. Capt. Gershom Moore, Lieut. Samuel Moore, and Ensign Joseph Sackett
were re-elected to their respective offices in the militia ; Samuel Edsall was ap-
pointed Justice-of-the-Peace, and Content Titus, Jonathan Hazard and Jeremiah
Burroughs were chosen Commissioners of the Town Court, of whom the last
named was also appointed Town Clerk in the stead of Daniel Phillips. Benjamin
Severens retained his place as Constable, being at this time Deputy Sheriff of
Queen's County. Delegates to a County Committee for the choice of a sheriff,
were also appointed, one of whom, John Coe, was chosen to fill that office, and
was commissioned by Leisler, on December 13th.
" In the beginning of winter, despatches were received from the royal gov-
ernment, in England, of such a nature as, in the opinion of the Committee of
Safety, to warrant Capt. Leisler in assuming the title of Lieutenant-Governor,
which he accordingly did, and selected a council, who entered upon their office
December nth, and of which Mr. Edsall was the member for Queen's County.
William and Mary were immediately proclaimed King and Queen at New York,t
and in the several county towns, while the Lieutenant-Governor and Council ex-
erted their energies to establish the authority of their new sovereign.
" This, however, was not so easy a task ; for while the bitter opposition of
the friends of the late King threatened to rend the province in sunder, the inroads
of the French, on the northern frontiers, were creating the most lively apprehen-
sions. To meet this twofold danger, Leisler sought to strengthen and increase
the military force of the province. By his order the militia of Newtown, which,
even in the spring of 1687, could muster ' 125 men, armed with firelocks,' was
divided into two companies, of one of which the officers were Capt. Content Ti-
tus, Lieut. Jeremiah Burroughs, and Ensign Robert Coe ; and of the other, Capt.
Samuel Moore, J Lieut. Joseph Sackett, and Ensign Gershom Moore. § These
were commissioned by Leisler, and were instructed to exercise their companies
in arms, and maintain good order and discipline, the tactics then practiced in the
town being, as expressed in a late return, ' distance, facings, doublings, counter
marchings, wheelings and firings.'
"Early in 1690, the alarming intelligence reached New York of the burning
of Schenectady, and the cruel massacre of its inhabitants by the French army and
their Indian allies, on the night of February 8th, and the people of Albany,
apprehending a visit from the enemy, earnestly begged a reinforcement of troops
for their protection. Sympathizing with his fellow-citizens in their peril. Gov.
*"June II, 1689, it was voated and agreed that Capt. Richard Betts and I,ieut. Samuel Moore go to the county
town to meet the deputys of other towns, to yote for two men out of the county to go to Yorke to act with the rest
in the counsil asa Committee of Safety." Records of Newton, I,. I.

lycisler, on February i6th, despatched Mr. Edsall to Newtown, with an order to
Major Thomas Lawrence, who commanded all the forces of Queen's to expedite
the raising of fifty men in said county for this service.*
"As has been already hinted, Leisler and his coadjutors had experienced
violent opposition from the friends of the late administration, who, though they
pretended allegiance to William and Mary, denied the legality of the proceedings
by which Capt. Leisler had been elevated to the chief seat of power. Albany had
shown the most formidable array of opposition, but having yielded from appre-
hension of a worse evil. Queen's County seemed now to be the chief seat of disaf-
fection. Autumn of 1 690 found the rebel party there, ' without any provocation,'
mustering in arms, and avowing their intentions to maintain their rebellion by
violence. To quell this faction. Major Milborne was sent over to the island,
October 28th, with a military force and instructions to prosecute the insurgents
'with all violence and act of hostility,' until they should be wholly subdued.
At Newtown, the same day, a proclamation was issued, of which the following is
a part :
FORASMUCH as there are many seditious persons, who without any provocation have
taken up arms, and appeared in a rebellious manner against his Majesty's authority, within
this county, called Queen's, upon Ivong Island, and under specious pretences have drawn aside,
and caused certain numbers of his Majesty's liege subjects to abet with them, contrary to their
allegiance and bounden duty, and the peace of our lord the King, his crown and dignity, and
the security and welfare of the good inhabitants thereof :^ THESE are in his Majesty's name,
to forbid, forewarn and advertise all persons within this province, that they in no wise aid,
succor, comfort, abet, consent to, or anywise adhere unto the said rebels, or any of their
associates, but upon notice hereof that all such who have unadvisedly been herein concerned,
do forthwith withdraw from them, and return to their allegiance and respective habitations,
where they shall be preserved in their rights and properties, and peaceable enjoyment thereof;
as they will answer the contrary at their utmost perils.
"Two days only had elapsed when news was received that ' the rebels had
been forced to fly by the forces sent to suppress them.' In order that none of
them might escape, Mr. Edsall and Capt. Williams were despatched by water,
with volunteer troops, to scour Flushing Bay and Long Island Sound, examine
all vessels, land and search suspected houses, and seize the person and papers of
those guilty of rebellion. 4^
' ' In this highly excited state of public feeling both parties anxiously awaited
news from England. Leisler and his friends expected the royal approval, while
their opponents, as heartily wishing for their condemnation, made strenuous ef-
forts to accomplish this object, by means of highly exaggerated and false state-
ments, which were transmitted to England to bias the royal mind against the peo-
ple's governor. The disaffected persons in the towns of Hempstead, Jamaica,
Flushing and Newtown, wrought up to the highest pitch of exasperation, con-
vened a meeting on Nov. 7th, and addressed a memorial to their Majesty's secre-
tary, complaining in the most vehement terms of Leisler's proceedings, who they
represent as having taken to himself the ' most wicked and poorest of the sons of
men, the chiefest of whom were Jacob Milborne and Samuel Edsall. These two
base villains, with their collected rabble, in a barbarous and inhuman manner
came over from New York to Long Island, and there did break open, plunder and
destroy the houses and estates of their Majesty's subjects, in a most rude and bar-
barous manner, not regarding age or sex, stripping our wives and daughters of
their wearing apparel, carrying away all that was portable, shooting at and
wounding divers poor Englishmen (some deemed mortal) , and then went so far
as to sequester our estates, giving no reasons for so doing, other than that we
would not accept commissions from the pretended Lieutenant-Governor, for which
a hundred and four of us are driven from our estates, men of the chiefest and best
estate on Long Island.'
' ' Leisler had gone too far. Intending all for good, his zeal to restore order in
the province had led to an extremity of means, highly injudicious and fatal. His
power now began to wane. Early in 1691, Major Ingoldesby arrived with soldiers
•Capt. Samuel Moore, comtnissioned February 19th, probably proceeded to Albany.

from England, and demanded possession of the fort, but showing no orders, I^eis-
ler refused to surrender it.* Ingoldesby besieged the fortress, and summoned the
citizens to repair to his standard. He directed Capt. Samuel Moore, of Newtown, to
publish his authority, and stand ready to aid him. On March 19th, Gov. Henry
Sloughter arrived, t and a well-meant but unfortunate delay on the partof lycisler
to deliver up the fort confirmed in the Governor's mind the report of his tyranny
and usurpation. The enemies of lycisler, though few in number, embodied the
aristocracy, and their representations had weight. They obtained his commit-
ment on a charge of high treason, and being, together with his son-iii-law and
secretary Jacob Milborne, in a summary manner tried and adjudged guilty, both
were executed at New York on May i6th, following. ' So fell Capt. Leisler and
Mr. Milborne,' says a writer of that day, 'men of known integrity, honesty,
and loyalty, and by a pretended course of law, contrary to all law condemned,
where their judges were, most of them, violent enemies of the happy revolution,
and therefore resolved to revenge themselves on these gentlemen, who were the
most early and zealous instruments of it, and who had first expended great part
of their estates, and then sufiered martyrdom for King William and Queen Mary,
their religion and laws.' I^eisler's council and other adherents, among whom
were Samuel Edsall and John Coe, were imprisoned, but escaped with their lives.
Mr. Edsall was tried and acquitted by the same court that convicted Eeisler.J"
The letter§ of Dr. Increase Mather to Gov. Dudley expresses the popular
feeling in reference to this unfortunate matter :
"Boston Jany 20.
" I am afraid that the guilt of innocent blood is still crying in the ears of the Lord against
you. I mean the blood of Leisler and Milburn. My Lord Bellamont said to me, that he was
one of the Committee of Parliament who examined the matter ; and that those men were not
only murdered, but barbarously murdered. However the murdered men have been cleared by
the King, Lords and Commons. It is out of my province to be a judge in things of this nature.
Nevertheless, considering what the proper judges, who have had an impartial hearing of the
case, have said, and what the gentlemen who drew up a bill for taking off the attainder from
those poor men have written to me about it, I think you ought, for your family's sake, as well
as your own, to lay that matter to heart, and consider whether you ought not to pray as
Psalms, li, 14."
The statement that the murdered men had been cleared by the King,
Lords and Commons refers to the tardy justice indicated in
An Act for Reversing thb attainder of Jacob Leisi,er and Others.**
Whereas in the late happy revolution, the inhabitants of the province of New- York, in
America, did in their general assembly, constitute and appoint Captain Jacob Leisler to be
commander-in-chief of the said province, until their majesties pleasure should be known therein.
And the said Jacob Leisler was afterwards confirmed in the said command by his Majesty's
letter, dated the thirtieth day of July, one thousand six hundred and eighty-nine ; and the said
Jacob Leisler having the administration of the said government of New-York, by virtue of the
said power and authority so given and confirmed to him as aforesaid, and being in the exercise
thereof, captain Richard Ingoldesby arriving in the said province, in the month of January,
Anno Dommi one thousand six hundred and ninety, did without producing any legall authority,
demand of the said Jacob Leisler the possession of the fort at New York ; but the said Jacob
Leisler, pursuant to the trust in him reposed, refusing to surrender the said fort into the hands
of the said Richard Ingoldesby, kept the possession thereof until the month of March then
next following, at which time colonel Henry Sloughter being constituted captain-general and
governor-in-chief of the sd province, arrived there in the evening, and the said Jacob Leisler
having notice thereof, that same night [though very late] took care to deliver the said fort to
his order, which was done very early the next morning.
And whereas the said Jacob Leisler, also Jacob Milbourne, Abraham Govemeur, and
several others were arrainged in the Supreme Court of Judicature at New-York aforesaid, and
convicted and attainted of high treason and felony, for not delivering the possession of the said
fort to the said Richard Ingoldesby, and the said Jacob Leisler and Jacob Milborne were
executed for the same. May it therefore please your most excellent majesty at the humble
petition and request of Jacob Leisler, the son and heir of the said Jacob Leisler, deceased,

Jacob Milborne, the son and heir of the said Jacob Milborne, deceased, and of the said
Abraham Governeur, that it be declared and enacted,
And be it enacted, by the king's most excellent majesty, by and with the advice and
consent of the lords spiritual and temporal and commons in this present parliament assembled,
and by the authority of the same, that the said several convictions, judgments and attainders of
the said Jacob Leisler, deceased, Jacob Milborne, deceased, and the said Abraham Governeur,
and every of them, be and are repealed, reversed, made and declared null and void to all
intents, constructions and purposes whatsoever, as if no such convictions, judgments, or
attainders, had ever been had or given ; and that no corruption of blood, or other penalties, or
forfeitures of goods, chattels, lauds, tenements, hereditaments, be by the said convictions and
attainders, or either of them, incurred, any law usage or custom to the contrary notwithstanding.
Whichever side the partisan may take in this historic struggle, he can make
no dispute as to the essential honesty of I,eisler in his efforts for the enlargement
of the people's rights. The English people of I^ong Island, with their afEhations
with Massachusetts, instantly realized that his cause was that of the people, and
took sides with him. If his cause had been successful the incident, instead of
being a usurpation and an insurrection, would have been styled a revolution, and
Leisler's name would have been embalmed in the memory of all patriots. " Fun-
damentally, he was right, for he struggled to procure enlarged liberties for the
people."* The taking of the fort was merely an incident in the struggle, and if
Leisler can be j ustified in the main proposition his action was necessary and logi-
cal. The appointment of a " Committee of Safety" at this time seems to be the
first instance in our history, and furnished the model for that important instru-
ment in the people's hands of effecting later their complete liberty in the Revolu-
tion of 1776. It should never be forgotten that Leisler called the first American
Congress on May i, 1690, the forerunner of the Continental Congress. This act
alone proves that the narrowness attributed to him did not exist. ' ' Even as it
is, even in spite of his blunders and his failure, in spite of the violence and
fanaticism which stain his record, I^eislert stands as one of the early representatives
of ideas since recognized as wholesome and statesmanlike. Moreover, the name
of the man who called together the first Congress of American colonies must al-
ways be pronounced with respect. "J
The hurried execution of Leisler and Milbourn, before his appeal to the
King could be heard, was inexcusable, and reveals the character of his opponents. §
Captain Samuel Moore took an active part in church work. We read, May
15. 1697,
"That it is the desire of the town that Mr. John Morse to be ordained for to be ye
paster and teacher of oner church according to ye trueth of the gospel, and also voted at ye
same time above that, these men are under written chosen by the Town for to elect and carrie
on the worke in referance to settlement of the menester in order to the act above. Capt. Beats,
Content Titus, Samuel Moer, Charles Hallit, Joseph Sackit, Caleb Leverich, John Berrian, Mr.
Eisel, Richard Bets, John Lawrence, John Coe, Edward Hunt, Jeremiah Burroughs, Jonathan
Hazard."
This record shows the vital connection between the town and the church.
At the same meeting it was voted
"That the town be at the charge to by a bell for the town of about ten pound price."
The outcome of the action of May 15, 1697, is quaintly expressed in the
following declaration on September 9th, following :
♦Historic Towni, New York, by Theodore Roosevelt, 62.

36. Capt. Samuel Moore' (Capt. Samuel', Rev. John') and Charitp
Halletf (Captain William', m. Sarah Woolsey (George), William').
Captain Samuel Moore' occupied the farm later owned by Samuel B.
Townsend. The land is described under Captain Samuel Moore'. [4]
Charity Halletf was the daughter of Captain WilHam Hallett' and
Sarah Woolsey', his wife, daughter of George Woolsey', of Jamaica, Iv. I.
William Hallett' occupied the part of his father's farm south of the road which
later formed Greenoak, Welling, Main Streets and Newtown Avenue. He served
as Justice and was Captain of a foot company. His brother, Samuel Hallett,
lived on the opposite side of the road. She was the sister of Sarah Hallett, who
married Rev. George Phillips,* of Brookhaven, and of William Hallett who, with
his wife Ruth and five children, was murdered January 24, 1708, by two slaves.
The case is remarkable on account of the dreadful tortures to which the murderers
were put, and also on account of the law which was passed, entitled "An act for
preventing the conspiracy of Slaves. ' ' She was the granddaughter of William
Hallett' and , who was bom in Dorsetshire, England, in 161 6,
came to America, helped to found Greenwich, Ct., afterward removed to I,ong
Island and bought a large property at Hellgate. In 1655 his house at Hallett' s
Cove was destroyed by the Indians, after which he removed to Flushing. In
1656 he was appointed Sheriff, but on account of his entertaining Rev. William
Wickenden from Rhode Island was deposed by Governor Stuyvesant. On the
revolt of l/ong Island against the Dutch, Mr. Hallett naturally advocated the
claims of Connecticut. He was sent as a delegate to the General Court of Con-
necticut, and was appointed Commissioner for Flushing. He returned to Hell-
gate and died there at the age of 90. Rev. Thomas Foyer's Register contains
the record : "Samuel Moor, Jr., and Charity, his wife, baptised August 6, 17 13,
at Hell Gate."

46. Sarah Moore* (Capt. Samuel', Capt. Samuel', Rev. John') and
Tucker.
From a letter in the possession of Mrs. Chambers [484], of Trenton, dated
May II, 1800, from Sarah Tucker to her sister Ehzabeth Moore, wife of Benjamin
Moore, of Pennington, it appears that she went to spend the remainder of her
days with her son at Shamokin, Pa.
"As for the journey (to Shamokin) it proved very favourable. I have been favoured
with my health till about three weeks ago, but got better again, but as for liking the country, I
do not. I am in expectation of ending my days here with my son and grandchildren. I am
very thankful for the kind offer for me to return to you, but you have had your share of trouble
with me, and I cannot be thankful enough to you both."
She wants to know when she had heard from her brothers on I^ong Island,
sends her love to Augustine and his wife, names over a number of members of
the family and friends, and signs the letter,
' ' I remain your affectionate sister,
" Sarah Tucker."
From another letter also in the possession of Mrs. Chambers, dated March
26, 1793, written by Sarah Moore to Elizabeth Moore, wife of Benjamin Moore,
of Pennington, mention is made of Mr. Tucker's death :
" I hear from Mr. Huff that Uncle Tucker is dead, that AuntSarah is living with you."
The writer also states that her
" Uncle John had been obliged to go from home on account of the smallpox, his chil-
dren having had it in the natural way, but are all over it now."
The writer signs herself
' ' Your affectionate niece,
" Sarah Moork."
The death of Sarah Moore Tucker is announced in a letter dated Shamokin,
September 30, 1800.
"Honored Unci,E : —
" I take this opportunity to let you know we are all in good health, those who are left of
us. My mother is gone ; she died the 24 July and was buried July 26 in the Church yard at Sun-
bury. She was not well from the time I saw you last, but not so as to keep her bed altogether.
She was sensible to the last, knew she was going and called me to her a few days before her
death and desired me as soon as she was dead to write to you and to my uncle on Long Island
by the first opportunity, to let them know what was become of her, to give her love to you, to
Aunt Betty to Austin and his wife, cousin Samuel and his family ; all her near relations and
friends.
' ' He hopes to see his Uncle this Fall or winter.

Mr. Benjamin Moore near Pennington, N. J.

Moore's will of 1767, as sister Sarah's son.

liams, Peletiah Moore and Elizabeth. The executor was "brother Nathaniel
Moore." He was evidently unmarried.

James Lent Moore' at the time of his death was the oldest native resident

family, whose history was coeval with that of the town. Mr. Moore was born on
the farm bought of William Hallett, Sr., by Capt. Samuel Moore' in 1684, near
where the residence of Luke Kouwenhoven now stands, near Steinway village.

like the old family homestead, long ago passed out of existence. In 1842, Mr.
Moore went into business at 2 1 Fulton Street. He was one of the oldest business
men in the city of Brooklyn and the oldest in his line of trade. His name was a
synonym for strict honesty and upright dealings. Of sterling Christian character,
and possessing a genial and hospitable nature, he had many friends. He was war-
den and vestryman of St. James's Church for many years.

years before, he was Ruling Elder in the Presbyterian Church of Princeton.

wards Professor of Mathematics in the University of Nashville, Tenn.; for three
years he took charge of an Academy at AUentown, N. J., and in November, 1830,
entered the Junior class in the College of New Jersey, where he graduated in 1832.
In the fall of that year he commenced the study of theology in Princeton Seminary,
but for some months he also acted as a tutor in the college, and completed his theo-
logical course in the fall of 1835. In July, 1836, he became pastor of the West
Nottingham Church, and what is now Port Deposit Church, at the same time taking
charge of the West Nottingham Academy. His pastorate here was greatly blessed
by numerous additions to the church. He became Professor of I,atin and Greek
in Lafayette College in 1850, and filled the chair until March, 1855, when, much
broken in health, for four years, he recruited his strength as a country pastor in
Newtown, Pa. In June, 1859, he went to California with a commission from the
Board of Education to lay the foundation of a Presbyterian college on the Pacific
Coast, a work in which he was eminently successful. In 1865-9 ^is name again
appeared on the catalogues of Lafayette College as Professor of Biblical Instruc-
tion. Returning to California, he took an active part in the organization, in 187 1, of
the San Francisco Theological Seminary, in which he was, from its opening, the
Professor of Hebrew and Old Testament Literature. In 1853 ^^ published his
Commentary on the Song of Solomon, and three years later, "Octorara," a poem.*
38. Benjamin Moore' (Capt. Samuel^ Rev. John') and Jlnna SacketP
(Joseph', Simon^ Simon').
Benjamin Moore' came into possession of the property, near Newtown vil-
lage, previously owned by his grandfather. Rev. John Moore, and which later
became the residence of John Jacob Moore^. Where Broadway, in Newtown vil-
lage, turns towards the southwest and becomes the HaUett Cove Road, there is an
old house, built between 1734 and 1738, still standing, called " the Witte house."
This is the homestead of a branch of the Moore family. Before this the field
belonged to Joseph Sackett and then to his son. Rev. Samuel Sackett. Opposite
the Witte house is the land of Lieut. Samuel Moore*, son of Benjamin Moore*.
The latter, who owned the land on the Shell Road, conveyed to his son, Lieut.
Samuel*, thenorthwestemhalfof the cleared land and meadow and half the young
orchard. Samuel* built a house on this lot, and died in 1788. The farm, after his
death, became the property of Jacob Moore', brother of Bishop Moore, who married
in succession Hannah and Elizabeth Waters. After Jacob Moore's death the
property was divided among the Walker, Innes, John Jacob Moore estates and
Locust Grove. Some of the property was owned by John Penfold. Bishop Moore
was bom here, and Hannah Moore, wife of Capt. Daniel Sackett Moore. In 1715,
Benjamin Moore' was sergeant in Capt. Daniel Stevenson's company of militia.f

579. Right Reverend Bishop Benjamin Moored S. T. D.,
(Lieut. Samuel*, Benjamin', Capt. Samuel', Rev. John') and Charity Clarke
(Major Thomas, m. Mary Stillwell).
"Benjamin Moore' was bom at Newtown, Long Island, on the i6th of
October, 1748. This rare historic interest, therefore, belongs to his life, that its
100
GENEALOG Y
childhood and youth were spent in our colonial days, while his manhood and age
were devoted to religious service in our republic. In the critical years of transi-
tion from the old to the new order, the country had no greater need than that of
a pure, able, and earnest clergy in its metropolitan city. The supply of leaders
with radical ideas was larger than the nation required. The men who were es-
pecially wanted were those who had learned from the past, and were conservatively
busy in the present, commanding universal respect and building foundations
quietly. A man for his time was found when Mr. Moore began his ministry in
New York, two years before the Declaration of Independence.
"His earlier history, therefore, becomes a matter of interesting inquiry.
He had an elder brother, who inherited the paternal estate at Newtown, and
whose descendants continue to live on the property to this day. Another brother,
William, studied medicine, and became one of the most eminent physicians of
New York, in the early part of the century.
' ' Benjamin was sent to school at New Haven, where he had the advantages
for instruction that surrounded Yale College. But preferring to become a student
of King's College (now Columbia), he removed to New York and was fitted for
it in a preparatory school. lyittle thought had he on the day when he was admit-
ted as a Freshman, that he should become one of the most honored presidents of
the institution he was entering, and that his college should then bear a new
name in a new nation.
"After his graduation," (in 1768) says Dr. Berrian, " he studied theology
at Newtown, under the direction of Dr. Samuel Auchmuty, rector of Trinity
Church, and for several years he taught lyatin and Greek to the sons of gentle-
men in New York. He went to England in May, 1774, was ordained deacon on
Friday, June 24, in the chapel of the Episcopal palace at Fulham, by Richard
Terrick, Bishop of lyondon, and priest, on Wednesday, June 29, 1774, in the same
place and by the same bishop.
"Returning from England, he was appointed, with the Rev. John Bowden
(afterward Dr. Bowden, of Columbia College), an assistant minister of Trinity
Church, Dr. Auchmuty being rector and afterward Dr. Inglis, since Bishop of
Nova Scotia.
"At the beginning of Mr. Moore's ministry, the first Trinity Church
(much larger and more imposing than the second) was still standing, and so re-
mained until it was swept away in the conflagration which destroyed that part of
the city in September, 1776. Built in 1696, and twice enlarged, its dimensions
were now one hundred and forty-six feet in length, by seventy-two in width, and
its spire was one hundred and eighty feet high. Two chapels belonged to the
parish, St. George's, built in 1752, and St. Paul's, in 1766. As yet, there was
no St. John's chapel. That was erected in 1807.
"Through all those trying years, when the enemies of the church were
many, and the site of its chief sanctuary was marked by a blackened ruin, the
young assistant persevered in his work, until, twelve years later, in 1788, he saw
a new Trinity Church completed, though smaller than the old edifice. Dr. Berrian
says of his entire ministry in the parish : ' His popularity was unbounded, and his
labors most extensive, so that in the period of thirty-five years, he celebrated
3,578 marriages, and baptized 3,064 children and adults.'
' ' Not only was he considered a man of learning, but of much power as a
preacher. ' His voice, though not strong, was so clear and musical that every
syllable could be heard in the most remote part of the church.' His words were
reinforced by the life which the people knew so well, and so thoroughly revered.
Gentleness, kindness, simplicity, and a personal interest in his parishoners, to-
gether with great consistency, were his characteristics. Even in middle life there
was something venerable in his appearance ; and very familiar to New Yorkers
were his intellectual head, plain-parted hair, tall, thin and slightly bending figure,
and the blending in his manner of gentleness and courtesy. He was called apos-
tolic. Theologically, he was a high-Churchman for his day.

" Bishop Provoost resigned the rectorship of Trinity Church in 1800 and
Dr. Moore at once succeeded him in the parish, and afterwards in the diocese. On
the 5th of September, 1801, he was unanimously elected Bishop of the Protestant
Episcopal Church, in the State of New York. He was so manifestly the man for
the place that his election seemed to be spontaneous. A few days afterward,
September 11, 1801, he was consecrated in St. Michael's Church, Trenton, New
Jersey, by Bishop White, of Pennsylvania, Bishop Claggett, of Maryland, and
Bishop Jarvis, of Connecticut.
' ' During his episcopate Bishop Moore remained rector of Trinity Church, the
two positions in those days being ordinarily held by the same person. Such an
arrangement was the more practicable, because the confirmation visitations were
so much fewer then than now. The list of parishes in the entire State of New
York entitled to representation in the Convention of 1804, is as follows : In New
York City, Trinity Church and its three chapels ; Church du St. Esprit, St.
Mark's in the Bowery, and Christ Church; and beyond New York City single par-
ishes in the following places : New Rochelle, Catskill, Newtown and Flushing,
Yonkers, Brooklyn (St. Ann's), Hudson, Staten Island, Rye, Bedford, Albany,
Poughkeepsie (Rev. Philander Chase, rector), Fishkill, Hempstead, New Stam-
ford, East Chester, West Chester, besides stations in Orange and Otsego Counties.
These parishes were served by twenty-eight clergy.
' ' The extent of the annual visitations is given by Bishop Moore himself.
At the Diocesan Convention of 1808 he makes the following report : 'Since the
last meeting of the convention (exclusive of the four congregations which are
more immediately committed to my pastoral care as rector of Trinity Church) , I
have visited the following churches for the purpose of administering the holy rite
of confirmation : Christ Church, New York ; St. Ann's, Brooklyn ; St. Andrew's,
Staten Island ; Trinity Church, New Rochelle ; St. Peter's, West Chester ; St.
Paul's, East Chester ; St. Mark's, Bowery; St. John's, Yonkers. In the before-
mentioned period of time, six hundred and ninety-two persons have been con-
firmed. We have ten young gentlemen who have signified their intention of ap-
plying for admission into Holy Orders.'
"In 1809, the bishop reports : ' During the last year I have administered the
holy rite of confirmation in the following churches : Grace Church, Jamaica ; St.
James', Newtown ; St. George's, Flushing ; St. Michael's, Bloomingdale ; Trinity
Church, New York ; Christ Church, Hudson ; St. Peter's, Albany ; St. Paul's,
Troy ; Trinity Church, lyansingburgh ; St. George's, Schenectady ; Episcopal
congregation in the Lutheran Church, Athens ; St. Euke's, Catskill. In the course
of these visitations I have confirmed three hundred and four persons. '
"It will be observed that though these confirmations were occasional, the
classes were large. The extent of the bishop's duties as rector may be inferred
from the fact that in 1804 there were in Trinity parish 1,000 communicants, 115
marriages, 378 baptisms, and 400 funerals.
"Bishop Moore's episcopate was marked by the steady growth of the dio-
cese. Christ Church, New York City, was received into union with the conven-
tion in 1802, St. James', Goshen, in 1803, and the Church du St. Esprit was con-
secrated ; St Paul's, Claverack and Warwick, was received in 1804, St. Stephen's,
New York City, and the Church at Athens, and Coxsackie in 1806, and St.
Michael's, Bloomingdale, in 1807. The year 1810 was very fruitful. On the i8th
of March a young man of excellent promise was ordained deacon in St. John's
Chapel. His name was William Berrian. Who could say that he would not some
day become rector of Trinity parish itself. On the 2 2d of March, Zion's I^utheran
Church, in Mott Street, conformed to our communion, and its Pastor, Ralph Willis-
ton, was ordained on the following day. On the 17th of May the new St. James'
Church, Hamilton Square, five miles distant from the city, among the country
seats of prominent churchmen, was consecrated ; also on the 9th of June, Trinity
Church, Geneva, July 8th, Christ Church, Cooperstown, and October 17, St.
Matthew's, Bedford.
"During all these years of diocesan work, the Rev. Mr. Hobart, of Trinity
Church, afterward Bishop Hobart, was the active and most efficient helper of
102
GENEALOG Y
Bishop Moore ; and by his co-operation the Protestant Episcopal Theological So-
ciety was established in 1806, and became the germ of the General Theological
Seminary. The Bible and Common Prayer Book Society was also established in
"In February, 181 1, the bishop was attacked by paralysis, and called a
special convention in May, for the purpose of electing an assistant bishop. Dr.
Hobart was chosen, and after his consecration performed all the duties of the dio-
cese. Bishop Moore withdrew into the sacred retirement of an invalid, where his
bearing is said to have been saintly ; and he fell asleep on the 27th of February,
18 16, in the sixty-sixth year of his age.
" During his episcopate a question arose with regard to his jurisdiction,
but it was one into which he did not enter, and it does not form a part of his
history.
' ' Bishop Hobart preached his funeral sermon, in which he said : ' He lives
in the memory of his virtues. He was unaffected in his temper, in his actions, in
his every look and gesture. Simplicity, which throws such a charm over talents,
such a lustre over station, and even a celestial loveliness over piety itself, gave its
coloring to the talents, the station, and the piety of our venerable father.
" ' People of the congregation ! You have not forgotten that voice of sweet-
ness and melody, yet of gravity and solemnity, with which he excited while he
chastened your devotion ; nor that evangelical eloquence, gentle as the dew of
Hermon.' "*
It may not be amiss to present an account of the ordination of Mr. Richard
Channing Mooref and Mr. Joseph G. C. Bend, as it seems to have been novel at
that time.
"On Sunday last, J in St. George's Chapel, in this city, Mr. Richard C.
Moore and Mr. Joseph G. J. Bend were ordained deacons of the Episcopal Church
by the Right Rev. Samuel Provoost, D.D., Bishop of said church in this State.
These gentlemen, according to the usages of the Church, are ordained Deacons,
with special permission to preach, and it is requisite that they should continue
Deacons for some time, previous to their admission to the order of Priesthood.
The Chapel was unusually crowded, the ceremonies of Episcopal ordination being
novel§ in America. The solemnity of the occasion, the great good conduct which
was observed through every part of it, and an excellent sermon, delivered by the
Rev. Benjamin Moore with an admired diction and eloquence peculiar to him,
made a pleasing impression upon the audience. We cannot on this occasion, but
with pleasure reflect that the Protestant Episcopal Church, in these States, is now
perfectly organized and in full enjoyment of each spiritual privilege (in common
with other denominations), requisite to its preservation and prosperity."
Benjamin Moore^ received the degree of A.B. from King's College, 1768,
and A. M. later ; in 1775 he served as president /w tempore ; in 1784 he became
Professor of Rhetoric and lyOgic, and held the chair for three years; in 1789 he
received the degree of S. T. D.; from 1787 to 1802 he was Regent of the Univer-
sity of New York ; he became President of King's College in 1801 and continued
in the oiEce until 1812 ; he was trustee from 1802-1813 ; he was Bishop of the
Protestant Episcopal Church, N. Y., from 1801 until his death, 1816. He was

founded September 29, 1769. In 1782 he was Deputy Chaplain of the hospital staff

Mr. Moore opened the meetings of the Provincial Congress with prayer in
the early days of excitement preceding the Revolution. Bishop Moore adminis-
tered the communion to Alexander Hamilton after the duel with Aaron Burr, and
was one of the assistants at the inauguration of George Washington as President.*
The events attending the death of Hamilton are best given in Bishop
Moore's own words :
' ' Upon my entering the room and approaching his bed, with the utmost
calmness and composure he said : ' My dear sir you perceive my unfortunate sit-
uation, and no doubt have been made acquainted with the circumstances which
led to it. It is my desire to receive the communion at your hands. I hope you
will not conceive there is any impropriety in my request.' He added, ' It has
been for some time past the wish of my heart, and it was my intention to take an
early opportunity of uniting myself to the Church by the reception of that holy
ordinance. ' I observed to him that he must be very sensible of the delicate and
trying situation in which I was then placed ; that, however desirous I might be
to afford consolation to a fellow mortal in distress, still it was my duty as a min-
ister of the Gospel to hold up the law of God as paramount to all other laws and
that, therefore, under the influence of such sentiments I must unequivocally con-
demn the practice which had brought him to his present unhappy condition. He
acknowledged the propriety of these sentiments, and declared he viewed the late
transaction with sorrow and contrition. I then asked him : ' Should it please God
to restore you to health, sir, will you never be again engaged in a similar trans-
action, and will you employ your influence in society to discountenance this bar-
barous custom ? ' His answer was, ' That, sir, is my deliberate intention.' I pro-
ceeded to converse with him on the subject of his receiving the communion, and
told him that with respect to the qualifications of those who wished to become
partakers of that holy ordinance my inquiries could not be made in language more
expressive than that which was used by our Church — ' Do you sincerely repent of
your sins past ? Have you a lively faith in God's mercy through Christ, with a
thankful remembrance of the death of Christ ? And are you disposed to live in
love and charity with all men ?' He lifted up his hands and said : ' With the
utmost sincerity of heart I can answer those questions in the affirmative. I have
no ill will against Colonel Burr. I met him with a fixed resolution to do him no
harm. I forgive him all that happened. ' I then observed to him that the ter-
rors of the divine law were to be announced to the obdurate and impenitent, but
that the consolations of the Gospel were to be offered to the humble and contrite
heart, that I had no reason to doubt his sincerity and would proceed immediately
to gratify his wishes. The communion was then administered, which he received
with great devotion, and his heart afterward appeared to be perfectly at rest. I
saw him again this (that) morning, when with his last faltering words he ex-
pressed a strong confidence in the mercy of God through the intercession of the
Redeemer. I remained with him until 2 o'clock this (that) afternoon, when
death closed the awful scene. He expired without a struggle and almost with-
out a groan."

GENEALOGY
Near the Rector Street side of Trinity grounds in New York can be seen
" G. Bend's Vault," which covers the remains of " Bishop Benjamin Moore and
Charity, his wife." In the church itself is a recumbent effigy of the Bishop in
marble.
Charity Clarke was the daughter of Major Thomas Clarke*, a retired of-
ficer of the British Army, born August ii, 1692.
Major Clarke bought a tract of land extending from what is now Nine-
teenth Street to Twenty-fourth Street, and from the Hudson River to what is now
Eighth Avenue. Here he built a handsome house about 1750 and called it
'* Chelsea," after the famous hospital near I^ondon. The house was burned down
during the last illness of its owner, and he nearly perished in the flames. His
widow rebuilt it. The house and a large portion of the land were left to her
daughter Charityf. In 1745 Major Clarke married Mary Stillwell. By this mar-
riage there were four children — Mary, who married Richard Vassal, Charity,
Maria Theresa, and Clement. Maria Theresa married Viscount Barrington, cousin
of Theodosia Bartow, wife of Col. Burr, who was first married to General Prevost,
a British officer. Mary was L,ady Holland. It is said that Lady Aflic was a rel-
ative of Charity Clarke's. J

'T WAS the night before Christmas, when all through
the house
Not a creature was stirriag, not even a mouse ;
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there ;
The children were nestled all snug in their lieds,
While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads ;
And Mamma in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled our brains for a long winter's nap,
"When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash.
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow,
Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below.
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear.
But a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer,
With a little old driver, so lively and quick.
I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick,
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by
name
With the sleigh full of toys, and St. Nicholas too.
And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof,
The prancing and pawing of each little hoof-
As I drew in my head, and was turning around,
Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with a bound.
He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot ;
A bundle of toys he had flung^ on his back,
And he look'd like a pedlar just opening his pack.
His eyes— how they twinkl'd ! his dimples how merry I
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry I
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow.
And the beard of his chin was as white as the snow ;
The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath ;
He had a broad face and a little round belly.
That shook when he laughed, like a bowlful of jelly.
He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf.
And I laughed when I saw him in spite of myself ;
A wink ofhis eye and a twist of his head
Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread ;
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
"Now, Dasher/ no-w, Bancer/ novv, Prancer and Vixen/ And fiU'd all the stockings ; then turned with a jerk,
On, Comet / on, Cupid / on. Bonder and Blitzen I And laying his finger aside ofhis nose
To the top of the porch I to the top of the wall !
Now dash away ! dash away ! dash away all !"
As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly.
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky ;
So up to the house-top the coursers they flew,
And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose ;
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight,
"Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night.'^l

hearts cheerful memories of childhood ! Such, at least, if no higher, has been the
lot of the late Dr. Clement C. Moore, the author of ' A Visit from St. Nicholas,'
which has now been a household friend of American children for nearly seventy-
five years, and promises to be dear to them for many and many a year to come.
"Dr. Moore belongs to the group of minor singers whose right to be remem-
bered rests on a very small amount of verse achieved. There are poets who hold
their place, and will long hold it, in every anthology by right of two or three
poems ; others who are known but by one ; and others, again, who live but by a
single line, or at most by a couplet in some poem, all the rest of which is forgot-
ten. In the case of Dr. Moore, nothing he has written is likely to survive except
the ' Visit from St. Nicholas ' ; and this lives, not by right of poetry, but by its
innocent realism and its direct appeal to the matter-of-fact imagination of child-
hood. For children — and this is as true of girls as it is of boys — rarely love poetry,
and they tolerate verse only when it pleases their infant years with jingle, or
when, grown older, its rhymes and ' ordered lines ' dress up some narrative that
has at least the look of being 'true.' Even then they are apt to wonder why
the story could not have been as well told in plain prose.
" Mr. William S. Pelletreau, in the interesting account of Dr. Moore's life
which he has just published, tells us that the 'Visit from St. Nicholas' was
written in 1822 as a Christmas present for his children ; and that a young lady*
visiting the family copied it into her album, and sent it, unknown to Dr. Moore,
to the editor of the Troy Sentinel, who printed it, without the author's name, in
the issue of that journal for December 23, 1823. From the newspaper it found
its way to the school-readers, and speedily became a great favorite with children
all over the country.
" Mr. Pelletreau tells us that Dr. Moore was at first annoyed by the appear-
ance of the poem in print, as he had not intended it for the public, and thought
it a mere trifle with but slight literary merit. No doubt it was with some mis-
givings that, twenty years later, he gave it a place in the volume of his collected
poems. With the proverbial blindness of writers, he probably thought this play-
ful sally, written to please his youngsters at their Christmas merry-making far in-
ferior to its all-forgotten companions, of which he says in his preface : ' Some
of them have cost me much time and thought, and I have composed them all as
carefully and correctly as I could.'
" But, alas ! for the self-esteem of poets, immortalities and oblivions are not
distributed on their own terms. They take much pains to please their peers
among the learned and the cultivated, who ' scarce allow them half an eye ' ;
while some flower chance-dropped from their hands is picked up by a child In
passing, and, to their surprise, — sometimes, it maybe, to their disdain, — they find
that out of the mouths of babes and sucklings their praise has been ordained.
The bright-eyed procession of children — most beautiful, most precious of all the
beautiful and precious things in our world — has kept Dr. Moore's unconsidered
trifle alive for all these years ; and it has earned its right to live by the clearness
of its conception and the directness with which the story is told. It is a true piece
of Dutch painting in verse, and it is not surprising that it should have been trans-
lated into painting so many times. For nothing is left to the copyist's fancy; he
has but to trace the poet's lines with his pencil. And, trifle as it is, it has a fair
claim to originality as a conception. Dr. Moore's St. Nicholas has become the
accepted personification of this kindly purveyor of toys and playthings ; and this
particular avatar is one in which, so far as we know, the benevolent saint never
appeared before. His German prototype is, by comparison, a somewhat stohd
and formal personage, who goes through his task of distributing gifts somewhat
in the spirit of an expressman delivering his parcels, or of a schoolmaster giving
out prizes at commencement. Dr. Moore's St. Nicholas, on the other hand, has
animal spirits in plenty, and a most contagious love of fun ; and the children are
in love with him as soon as they set eyes on him. Many a child must have won-
dered how the saint contrived to get round to so many houses in a single night ;
but no story-teller before Dr. Moore ever let him into the secret. That he should
have come in a sleigh was likely enough, but a sleigh drawn by reindeer is a fancy

as unexpected as it is pretty. The invention of most story-tellers would have got
no further than horses. An added touch of reality is the ' ashes and soot ' on
the fur coat of St. Nicholas. The conventional German saint is always miracu-
lously clean, when, to the amazement of the children, he comes walking out of
the chimney. ' Comes,' do we say ? How can he long continue to come out of
the chimney in houses where gas-logs, asbestos rag-bags, steam-radiators, and
furnace-registers have usurped the life-giving hearth, the center of the home life,
the heart of hospitality ?

" While the Widow Clarke occupied ' Chelsea Farm ' her house was seized
by the British on the stormy uprising of the ' rebels ' ; and, like every other
householder, she was obliged to accept whatever military guard might be quar-
tered upon her. Many of these householders left their dwellings to the tender
mercies of the enemy and fled ; but Mrs. Clarke was advised to remain, and she
was fortunate in her enforced guest, who proved to be a gallant ofEicer and a
courteous gentleman, who spared her goods and treated her and her daughters
with consideration.
"It was in this house that Bishop Moore's only child was born — a son, who
was named after his mother's only brother, Clement Clarke. After receiving the
elements of his education from his father, he entered Columbia College, and was
graduated in 1798. He was fitted for the ministry, but he never took orders;
and continuing to live in his father's house, he devoted himself to Oriental and
classical studies, and employed his leisure in writing verse, not for profit or pub-
lication, but to lighten his severer labors and amuse his children and his friends.
His first printed venture was made in 1806, as the anonymous contributor to the
book of a friend, which also appeared anonymously — a dingy little volume ' on
gray paper with blunt type,' printed for E. Sargeant, at No. 39 Wall Street,
opposite the United States Bank — ' A New Translation, with Notes, of the Third
Satire of Juvenal, to which are added Miscellaneous Poems, Original and Trans-
lated. ' It would seem as if the authors were a little afraid of the sound of their
own voices ; for in the only copy we have been able to find of this book, the names
of the translator and his friend are written with ink on the title-page by some one
in the secret, but have been obstinately erased, and are to be read only by those
who have learned from R. W. Griswold's ' Poets of America ' what the names
must be. By applying this X-ray to the inky blot, the names are clearly to be
read of John Duer and Clement C. Moore.
" The introduction written by Moore for his friend's translation is apropos
of nothing in that translation, but simply serves as a hook on which to hang cer-
tain animadversions, as severe as the constitutional good nature of the writer
would permit, on a group of lackadaisical poets and poetasters of the town, who,
as Mr. Moore and his friend thought, were having too much their own way. The
verse they criticized was certainly worthless alike in form and matter ; but it must
be said that neither the new translator of Juvenal nor the author of the poems
that accompanied it (who was acknowledged, in a note, to be the writer of the in-
troduction) was by right entitled to be too severe on the disciples of Laura Ma-
tilda and the Delia Cruscans.
" 'Thirty-eight years later, in 1844, Messrs. Bartlett and Welford (how much
pleasure is associated with those names in the mind of once young book-loving
New Yorkers), published 'Poems by Clement C. Moore, LL.D.,' and in this
volume were found, among others, all the verses signed '1.' that had appeared
in Mr. Duer's book. Here was ' A Visit From St. Nicholas,' in the company of
verses so perfunctory, written in a style so different, so artificial and tame, so
empty of matter, that it would be difficult to believe them written by the same
hand, were it not that in 'A Trip to Saratoga,' with which the volume opens,
there is a distinctly natural tone in the narrative style, and the same is found iri
the ' Lines to Southey,' with which the volume closes. But the ' Trip to Sara-
toga ' has little to recommend it beyond proving that Dr. Moore could tell a plain
tale in plain words, when he was so inclined, or when he was really moved to
write. The ' Lines to Southey ' were written but never sent, after reading the
dedication by that poet of ' A Tale of Paraguay ' to his daughter, Edith May

Southey. In Moore's poem he laments the loss of his wife and two of his children;
and his grief has a note that makes its way to the heart in spite of the formal ver-
sification that hinders its free motions.
' ' The wonder would have been perhaps, if anybody in New York at that
time had written poetry worth preserving. Certainly the city must have been a
pleasant place to live in, half town, half country, as it was — a large village fringed
with smaller villages or hamlets, with green fields, fruitful farms and well-
kept estates stretching along the once beautiful waters that bounded it on each
side. But if it had all the charms of this semi-rural life, it had all the disadvan-
tages of such a condition. We have only to skim the pages of Mr. Philip Hone's
diary (Mr. Hone, socially one of the most prominent men of his time, and a warm
friend of Dr. Moore) to discover what a I,ittle Peddlington the smaller New York
must have been in those days. The two great passions that divided the public
mind were politics and trade ; and as these were strictly interdependent, it is no
wonder that, almost homogeneous as the public was in race, and but little sepa-
rated in its interests, it took things with a seriousness that kept the social pot for-
ever boiling over.
' 'But in the midst of all thi ssocial turmoil and hubbub, the life of Dr. Moore
flowed tranquilly on in his home at Chelsea Farm, among his books, with his
music and his flowers, like one of the many small streams that in his day pursued
their quiet way through the fields of Greenwich and the streets of the bustling
city. His more laborious hours were passed in his work as instructor in the
Oriental languages and in Hebrew. In 1809 he published a Hebrew lexicon in
two volumes — the first that had appeared in America — and thus became the
pioneer in that study here.
"In 1 818 Dr. Moore presented to the General Theological Seminary of the
Episcopal Church, as a free gift, the entire block* bounded by Ninth Avenue,
Twentieth and Twenty-first streets, and extending to the Hudson River. In 1821
he became Professor of the Oriental and Hebrew Languages in the seminary, and
continued his work in that field during the rest of his life.
"His Hebrew lexicon has long been superseded; his poems are forgotten ;
but the noble foundation of the Theological Seminary — a gift such as would hardly
be possible for even a multi-millionaire to imitate in our crowded city to-day —
this gift to the world of scholars, and the 'Visit from St. Nicholas,' a gfift to
our children, will long keep green the memory of this learned, modest scholar and
friend of his kind."t
Clement Clarke Moore received his A.B. from King's College in 1798, and
Ms A.M. later. In 1829 the degree of 1,1,. D. was conferred upon him. He was
Trustee of the College from 1813 to 1857, and Clerk of the Board from 18 15 to
1850. From 1821 to 1850 he was Professor of Hebrew and Greek literature in
the General Theological Seminary of the Protestant Episcopal Church ; from
1860-3, Professor Emeritus. Mr. Moore was an excellent musician, and for many
years gave his services as organist in St. Peter's Church in Twentieth street, in
what was then called the village of Greenwich ; a mural tablet here commemo-
rates his virtues and benefactions. He was warden of St. Peter's in 1831 and 1841.

"Francis MacNutt was born at Richmond, Ind. The MacNutts are of Scotch
descent, and the founder of the family in this country was one Sir Alexander
MacNutt, who settled in Virginia in 1728. When the French were expelled from
Acadia (Nova Scotia), he obtained grants of a large section of land in that prov-
ince from George II. He colonized this grant with Scotch and Irish settlers, and
founded the town of Shelbourne. The family remained in Nova Scotia until John
MacNutt returned to Virginia in 1821. The family, with the exception of Mr.
MacNutt's father, sided with the Confederacy in the War of the Rebellion, and
was almost obliterated. Mr. MacNutt's father served with an Ohio regiment,
and was mustered out with the rank of captain at the close of the war.
" Francis MacNutt received his education at Phillips Exeter Academy, the
Harvard Law School and at Hanover, Germany, where he was first tutored by the
Abbe Fischer, who had accompanied the ill-fated Maximilian to Mexico as Confes-
sor and Chaplain, and later at the Polytechnique. After finishing his education
he went to London, where he formed the acquaintance of Cardinal Manning, in
whose household he lived for over a year. At this period he inclined toward the
priesthood, and for the purpose of fitting him for that. Cardinal Manning obtained
his admission to the Accademia Ecclesiastica at Rome.

' 'At this time Mr. MacNutt was appointed a Privy Chamberlain by Leo XIII.
He remained a student to within two months of his ordination, when his mind
changed, and he shortly afterward returned to this country.
' ' In the first year of the Harrison Administration he was appointed Secre-
tary of the Legation at Constantinople, Solomen Hirsch, of Oregon, being Minis-
ter. He remained in Turkey until 1892, when he exchanged with the Secretary
at Madrid, arriving at that city in May, when the resignation of General E. Burd
Grubb as Minister made MacNutt Acting Charge d' Affaires until the arrival of
General Grubb's successor, Colonel A. Louden Snowden, in October. Mr. Mac-
Nutt remained attached to the Spanish Mission until July 1893.
' ' He then returned to America, and remained here until the war between
China and Japan drew him to the latter country, where he witnessed the mobili-
zation of the army, the departure and return of the fleet and the reception of the
news of the victories. He was returning to this country, when at Cairo,
in Egypt, he made the acquaintance of Djemil Pacha, first cousin of the
Khedive and later his brother-in-law through marriage with the Princess Munet.
"This Prince, the richest of the Egyptian dynasty, was then only nineteen
years old, and almost wholly unused to European customs. Knives and forks were
unknown upon his table, and his manners in the drawing-room were of the most
primitive character. Mr. MacNutt became the master of his household and taught
him the English language and English manners. He spent two years in the house-
hold of the Prince and in traveling to and fro through the country and visiting
the various estates of the Prince.
"Prince Djemil, besides the palace Monoumira, in Cairo, had a great country
place across the Nile known as Boulac-da-Krur, the gardens of which are famous
for the finest blood oranges and strawberries in Egypt. He also owned a great
cotton estate in the delta of the Nile. Their time was principally spent between
these three palaces. Mr. MacNutt could never break the Prince of his habit of
eating with his fingers, and often in the club or when dining with friends, when
the inclination overtook him, the prince would turn back his cuffs and return to
the habits of primitive man to the consternation of those present.
" After Djemil Pacha's marriage, Mr. MacNutt returned to this country,
where he has since remained."*

Dr. William Moore' was a physician. "This ornament J of the profession
and of Christianity, was born at Newtown, L- L, in 1754. He received the rudi-

Bishop Moore, and President of Columbia College. He attended the lectures on
medicine delivered by Drs. Clossey and Samuel Bard.
"In 1778 he went to London, and thence to Edinburgh, and in 1780 gradu-
ated Doctor of Medicine, when he delivered a dissertation on the Bile.

" For more than forty years he continued unremittingly engaged in the ar-
duous duties of an extensive practice, particularly in midwifery, estimating his
number of cases at about three thousand. His medical papers may be found in
the American Medical and Philosophical Register, the New York Medical Repos-
itory and the New York Medical and Physical Journal. For many years Dr.
Moore was President of the Medical Society of the County of New York, and an
upright and vigilant Trustee of the College of Physicians and Surgeons. On his
death the college recorded their testimony of his pre-eminent worth. He was
Trustee of Columbia College from 1790 until his death, and chairman in 1823.
" Dr. John W. Francis, at that time Prof essor of Obstetrics in the college, in
his lecture to the class, remarked of this estimable man, as follows : ' Before I
conclude,' says he, ' permit me to pay my feeble tribute of homage and respect
to the memory of the late Dr. Moore, recently called from among us by the iiat
of Providence : a bright exemplar of the virtues and the important qualifications
demanded of the practitioner in that department of the profession, the duties of
which I have attempted to exhibit. I am persuaded that I do not allow feelings
of personal friendship to prevail over the decisions of the severest scrutiny, when
I assert that no member of our profession has exhibited in his life and conduct, a
more beautiful example of the dignity and benignant lustre of the medical
character.
" ' Honored for many years with his friendship, and admitted to the privi-
lege of his conversation, I was early taught to look upon him with a respect and
veneration which all my subsequent acquaintance only served to strengthen and
confirm. Thousands among us can testify to the mildness and urbanity of his
manners, to his tender and watchful regard for the suffering patient and sympa-
thizing attendants, to his warm-hearted benevolence of feeling, and devotedness
to the good of all whom his eminent attainments, or the lesson of a pure and un-
spotted life could profit, to his strictness of moral principle and uniform devotion
to the sacred obligations of religion.
" ' It was but a few months ago that the governors of this institution were
honored with his co-operation and enlightened by his counsels. How great their
loss has been, can only be known to those who were acquainted with the liber-
ality of his views, and his freedom from every mean and selfish bias.
' ' ' Dr. Moore rose to his great eminence by the force of personal and pro-
fessional merit. A liberal education had prepared him to commence with advan-
tage his medical pursuits, and amid the toil and cares of his laborious career, he
ever continued to recur with ardor and delight to those classical studies, in which
he had been imbued in his youth. Seldom, indeed, has it happened that the two
professions were adorned with such attainments and such private excellence, as
were exhibited in the instances of Dr. Moore and his brother Benjamin, the late
pious and venerable bishop of the church. While we cherish their worth, let the
regret at our bereavement give place to a noble emulation of their pure virtue and
active benevolence. '
" That he was among the most eminent and useful men of which the annals
of medicine can boast, is fully established by the disinterested observations of his
able, learned and scientific contemporary, and his name adds one more to the
already extended list of great and good men, in almost every department of useful
knowledge which graces the history of I<ong Island. ' '
Dr. Moore was a vestryman of Trinity Church.
The following extract from a letter from Miss Maria Theresa Moore, his grand-
daughter, gives a pleasant picture of family life : ' ' Aug. 29, 1899. Thank you for
the pleasure you've given me by that account of my grandfather (Dr. Wm. Moore) .
I remember the dear old gentleman coming in often, with his knee-breeches, and
boots, with a little tassel on each, which we children always investigated, and our
Christmas visit to him and grandmother, when each child received a present. This
custom was carried on by my uncle, N. F. Moore, whilst in Columbia College, and
after he left New York and lived with Uncle William at Garrison, he sent to each
President Nathaniel F. Moore.

The mantle of the distinguished father fell appropriately upon the son,
Samuel W. Moore, t and the honor and dignity of the family virere preserved and
transmitted. Dr. Moore was the typical physician, earnest, sympathetic, equal to
emergency and having a genius for mechanics which was often used in surgical
cases. He was successful in his practice and had the respect and love of his pa-
tients. After his wife's death he spent his leisure in modeling in clay and pro-
duced some very creditable busts of his wife and father. He lived in Warren
Street, afterward at Broadway and Spring Streets. His portrait may be found in
the New York Hospital. He was a vestryman of Grace Church.
The annexed tribute to his memory by Dr. C. R. Oilman, of New York,
shows the feelings of his professional brethren.
The life of a practicing physician is very rarely one of startling adventures
or striking events. His duties, though important as the value of life itself, are
chiefly performed in the privacy of the sick-room ; and, of consequence, the man-
ner in which he performs them is known only to the small circles of loving friends
who gather around the bed of the sick or the dying.

Such a life, it may seem, presents but a barren field to the biographer.
Bid him chronicle the victories of the warriors, the triumphs of the statesman,
and he will devote to the task all his most brilliant powers, and do it with pride
and pleasure. But to trace the every-day life of one who has ' ' pursued the noise-
less tenor of his way ' ' in that obscurity which necessarily and very properly
shrouds most of the labors of the physician, whose path has been from sick bed
to sickbed, and whose contests have been only with the great enemy, death — this,
to the ambitious biographer, may seem to be an ungrateful task. But it is not,
or at least ought not to be, an ungenial labor, to speak of a life devoted to the
service of humanity, spent in the unostentatious performance of varied and im-
portant duties. Especially should the task of tracing such a course be grateful
when the duties of the man have been performed in the spirit of a Christian.
Such a task I have imposed upon myself, in attempting to write a biograph-
ical sketch of the life and character of Samuel W. Moore, M.D., whose recent
removal from among us, while it has plunged a bereaved family into deep afflic-
tion, has spread throughout a large circle of loving friends and strongly attached
patients, a deep and abiding sorrow " that they shall see his face no more forever. "
Samuel W. Moore was born in New York City, nth October, 1786, the
son of Dr. William Moore, long one of our most highly esteemed and successful
practitioners. From early childhood his constitution was frail, and the delicacy
of his bodily organization was equalled by the gentleness of his temper and the
kindliness of his feelings.
Such an one might seem to be unfitted to bear the grave responsibilities
and act amid the appalling dangers which so often beset the physician's path,
but this I believe is not so ; and the success of Dr. Moore adds another to the list
of those physicians whose lives prove that it is not so. The truth seems to be
that a strong sense of moral duty will so nerve the heart and strengthen the hand,
that the most acute sensibility will only make its possessor more eager to relieve
those sufferings by which his compassion is so strongly excited. Dr. Moore re-
ceived his early intellectual training from Mr. Samuel Rudd, and entered Colum-
bia College at the age of sixteen years, in 1802. His connection with Columbia
College was probably rendered more pleasant and profitable by the fact that his
uncle, Benjamin Moore, D.D., Bishop of New York, was then President of the in-
stitution. Several of his classmates still survive among us, and we noticed two of
them among the sorrowing friends who assembled at his funeral. He graduated
in regular course in 1806, and immediately commenced the study of medicine un-
der the guidance of his father, attending lectures in the medical department of
Columbia College, in which Dr. Wright Post then taught anatomy. Dr. Richard
Bailey surgery. Dr. Hammersley theory and practice of physic. Dr. J. R. B.
Rodgers midwifery, and Dr. David Hosack botany. From those distinguished
teachers he received, in 18 10, the degree of Doctor of Medicine, and immediately
entered into full practice, taking a share of the large business of his father. This
arrangement continued until 1824, when the elder Dr. Moore died, having prac-
ticed physic forty-four years. His son now took his place among the prominent
physicians of New York, with a large circle of patients, and a still larger one of
friends ; for such was the unaffected kindness of his heart, and such the graceful
amenity of his manners, that few became his patients without remaining ever his
attached friends. With his professional brethren his position was peculiarly
pleasant. A thorough medical education, and a large measure of well-improved
experience, gave to his opinions deserved weight, and insured him, as a physician,
a strong hold on the confidence of physicians, while his conduct, on all occasions
so perfectly upright, his manner so dignified yet so gentle, gave him as a man the
highest place in their regard. To quarrel with such a man was simply impossible
and to distrust him seemed not so much a wrong as a folly. Of him it can truly
be said, that after a successful career of more than forty years, and that in times
of many professional contests, he made many friends, and not one single enemy
in his own profession. Oh, si sic omnes! In 1824 he was appointed one of the
physicians of the New York Hospital. For this situation he had moral qualifica-
tions which are more important, and alas, more rare, than professional skill. His
ii6 GENEALOGY
conscientiousness insured to the poorest and most degraded of his pauper pa-
tients a full measure of his attention, while his amiability and benevolence made
him the friend of poor and rich alike. In 1828 he was compelled, by failing
health, to retire from a position which he was so well fitted to adorn.
In 1828, Dr. Moore was appointed Trustee of the College of Physicians and
Surgeons, and continued, from that period to the end of his life, to take an earnest
interest in the prosperity of that institution. At the time of his death he was the
senior member of the board. In 1849, on the reappearance of the cholera. Dr.
Moore, in conjunction with his friends. Dr. Joseph M. Smith and Dr. John B.
Beck, was appointed medical counselors to the Committee of the Sanitary Board
of Health. To the duties of this position, made more onerous by the fact that his
associate. Dr. Beck, was soon, by the state of his health, disabled from taking his
share of them, Dr. Moore devoted all his energies ; and the report published by
the committee affords most satisfactory evidence of the ability and faithfulness
with which this important public duty was performed. For several years, the
health of Dr. Moore, never very robust, had been gradually declining, and he felt
himself obliged to contract tlie sphere of his professional labor. Still he was unwil-
ling entirely to give up the practice of his profession, and very many of his old friends
were still more unwilling to be given up. In March last he met with an accident
which, though not immediately followed by grave symptoms, caused, as afterwards
appeared, effusion of blood into the cavity of the arachnoid. He continued to
visit a few friends, and his venerable form was still seen at church ; till in July
paralysis very gradually supervened, and on the 26th of August, 1854,
" Gently as an infant to his sleep.
Went he to death"—
Dr. Moore married, in 1813, Emily, daughter of William Constable, Esq.,
by whom he had thirteen children, ten of whom yet survive to give unto God
most " hearty thanks for the good example of him who, having finished his course
in faith, doth now rest from his labors."
The following resolutions show in what esteem he was held :
At a meeting of the Board of Health held on the 3d day of October, 1849, the following
resolution was adopted :
Resolved, That the thanks of the Board of Health are eminently due and are hereby
tendered to its Medical Counsel, Doctors Moore, Smith and Beck, to the resident physician. Dr.
Geer, and to the Health Commissioner, Dr. Morris, for their vigilant, constant and untiring
exertions in behalf of and for the preservation of the health of the city, and their efficient aid
rendered to this Board during the summer last passed, a summer characterized throughout the
prevalence of the cholera with a fearful mortality, imposing great unusual hazard, labor and
responsibility upon the medical gentlemen above named.

645. Maria Theresa Moore' (Dr. Samuel W.°, Dr.WilliaIIl^ I,ieut. Sam-
uel*, Benjamin', Capt. Samuel', Rev. John^).
The compiler of this work is under many obligations for help rendered by
Miss Moore, who lives in Stamford, Conn. Her interesting letters have been a
source of pleasure and her investigations have saved from oblivion many facts.
She has several relics — linen napkins with the Moore crest woven in the
center, her father's seal with the crest engraved upon it, a silver tankard be-
longing originally to Lieut. Samuel Moore*, the cover marked S. M. , left to her
father by his grandfather, whose name he bore ; a thimble given her by Mrs.
de Rham, her godmother, who was named after Maria Theresa Clarke, Bishop
Moore's wife's sister, who married Viscount Barrington, and who presented it to
Mrs. De Rham. "It is silver, only the top solid, the lower part pretty filigree work
and closed by ascrew-end, on which 'Maria' is engraved, and makes a seal." Maria
Theresa Clarke was a cousin of Theodosia Bartow, the wife of Col. Burr. She has a
letter written by Theodosia Burr Alston*, to her mother, from Saratoga. Her
reminiscences are exceedingly noteworthy. Here are some : " We were born in
Warren Street, and when a child my grandmother called me to the window and,
pointing out a white-haired, bent man, leaning on the arm of a tall colored
nurse, said, ' that is Aaron' Burr, remember the name when you hear all about
him one of these days.'
" All that I know of his grandfather (Bishop McVickar's), is that he had
a country seat on the Hudson which he sold to my grandfather, Constable, which
has since been used as an institution called ' The House of Mercy,' possibly now
it may be included in Greater New York.
" In addition to my grandmother I found old acquaintances of my child-
hood in ' Mrs. White and her beautiful daughters,' who often visited my grand-
mother, living in Murray Street , when we lived in Warren, close by, but I feel as
if I told of their peculiarities in a former note and how the British oflScers all be-
sieged their house before leaving, for a last farewell." This on receipt of a book
describing the Meschianza ball in Philadelphia in 1778.
' ' Some time if you ever meet Mr. O. H. Perry will you ask him how he is
related to Commodore Perry. I recollect Calbraith and a younger one, Willie, I
think. The family were friends of ours."
' ' Perhaps Theresa Moore in England might recollect some of the old-time
talk of her grandmother (the Bishop's widow), who lived in their delightful old
house with them, and was always called ' dear;' their mother they could scarcely
remember, she and her two elder daughters died so long ago."
' ' Eugene Bicknell is grandson of a third sister of my mother who married
a Pierrepont, and lived in Brooklyn in a large old house on the heights, one of
Washington's headquarters long ago destroyed."
" One small teaspoon marked w^, William and Jane, I suppose, my grand-
father and grandmother. She was related to the Hamilton and Stuj^esant-Fish
family, I always understood, and I recollect them visiting at our house in Warren
Street when I was young."
' ' Francis Van Rensselaer was the son of Jeremiah Van Rensselaer, and his
mother was a Miss Foster, of Boston. Their home was at Greenbush, just across
the river from Albany — such a solid old house, walls two feet thick built of brick
from Holland, and on each upper floor a brick left out here and there with a reg-
ular opening through, for the convenience of shooting attacking Indians."

646. William Constable Moore' (Dr. Samuel W.', Dr. William', I^ieut.
Samuel*, Benjamin', Capt. Samuel', Rev, John') and Mary Charlton Hott=
huysen.
William Constable Moore', after completing his education, was employed
for many years as civil engineer. He was engaged on the first surveys of the
Hudson River Railroad and many others. In 1849 he entered the Bank of Com-
merce (now First National Bank) of New York, where he remained twenty-three
years. In 1872 he spent a few months in Europe, and on his return in 1873 set-
tled inNyack, becoming President of the Nyack National Bank in 1878, in which
capacity he served faithfully until he was stricken down by disease. He was also
an active member of the Nyack Choral Society, and was conspicuous in good works
in many directions. He was beloved by the entire community in which he lived,
and his death will long be mourned by all who knew him. His remains were taken
to New York and services were held in St. Mark's Church in that city.*
647. Henry Casimir Moore' (Dr. Samuel W.^ Dr. WilliamS Ueut.
Samuel*, Benjamin', Capt. SamueF, Rev. John').
Henry Casimir Moore' died at his home in Stamford, Conn. His early life
was spent in New York City. Subsequently he lived for a time in England and
Australia, where he became well known and highly respected. Returning to this
country, he lived first in New York and then in Stamford, Conn. The funeral
was held in St. Andrew's Church, Stamford.
649. Rev. John Wells Moore' (Dr. Samuel W.», Dr. William^ Went.
Samuel*, Benjamin', Capt. Samuel', Rev. John') and Frances H. Weber
(Rev. William).
Dr. John Wells Moore' was graduated at the head of his class at Columbia
College in 1847 ; he took his A.M. in i860. His first charge was at North Salem
and Summers, Westchester Co. , where he preached five years. From there he
went to Canton, St. I^awrence Co., where he remained five years, and was after-
ward one year in New York. Twenty-four years ago last April (1861), he took
charge of Christ Church in Red Hook. He brought to his new field an energy
and perseverance which was an incentive to the little charge to put forth their
best efforts. The good results of his labors are apparent in the strength and in-
fluence of the flourishing church he leaves behind. Quiet, unassuming, but sin-
cere in his bearing toward all, with simple tastes that found their highest gratifi-
cation in the home that he loved and the endearments of a large family circle, he
sought no higher place save that which he occupied in the church for which he
so zealously labored. The loss of such a man can scarcely be estimated. As a cit-
izen he was so unobtrusive, as a neighbor so kind, as a peacemaker always desir-
ing right, as a Christian man God-fearing and humble, he filled these stations
without regard to eye-service. Modest to an unusual degree, he turned aside the
many marks of favor with which his friends would have honored him.
At a meeting of the Trustees of Christ Church, Red Hook, N. Y., held May 15th, 1885,
there were present Edward Martin, Richard Martin, John Armstrong Chanter, Edward B. Bost-
wick and John H. ElseflFer.
The following minute was adopted :
It having pleased Almighty God to remove to his heavenly rest our beloved rector, the
Rev. John Wells Moore, we desire to place on record our deep and lasting sorrow for the loss
not only to ourselves but the whole cotnmunity, of one who, during the twenty-four years that
he has been among us, has always been our guide, counsellor and friend, a helper of the help-
less and a comforter of those in affliction.

We wish also to bear witness to the purity of his life and the beauty of his character,
which, by their example have been such a powerful influence among us for good.
We also desire to express for his family, who have lost a devoted and affectionate hus-
band, father and friend, our deep and sincere sympathy, with the prayer that our Heavenly
Father will comfort them with a sense of His goodness, and in their great affliction give them
peace. Edward Martin, Chairman.

At a meeting of the following clergy, the Rev. Drs. Clark, Gibson, Harrison, Olssen
and Fairbairn, and the Revs. Messrs. Hopson, Piatt and Shober, who attended the burial of
the Rev. John W. Moore, rector of Christ Church, Red Hook, Dutchess County, N. Y., on Fri-
day afternoon, May isth, the Rev. Dr. Olssen and the Rev. Dr. Fairbairn were appointed to
make and publish a minute, testifying to the affection and respect of the clergy present for
their departed brother.
The Rev. John W. Moore, M. A., was born in the city of New York, February 25th,
1826. He graduated at Columbia College in 1847, and at the General Theological Seminary in
1850. He was known and esteemed by his brethren of the clergy, especially for three things :
The first was his learning. He graduated at Columbia College at the head of his class.
He was offered the Professorship of Greek in Burlington College by the Right Rev. G. W.
Doane, of New Jersey, on the recommendation of Professor Charles Anthon. His love of learn-
ing never waned. He was wedded to his books and lived much in his library to the very last.
He was an accomplished theologian. The second trait for which he was esteemed was the
purity of his character. His life was adorned by those virtures which have been painted so
vividly in Herbert's " Country Parson." His neighbors can testify that for twenty-four years
he has always maintained a life void of offence toward God and toward man. Dignified, self-
possessed and companionable, he always and without exception maintained the character of a
Christian gentleman.
He was also remarkable for his modesty. With his learning and breeding he might
have claimed for himself a higher position in the Church. But he was content to labor in the
sphere where Providence had called him with contentment and cheerfulness, finding his hap-
piness in his work and in his family.

There has seldom been a more popular statuette than that of the caricature
dog with the title, "Who's Afraid?" Although they first made their appear-
ance nearly ten years ago, the statuettes are still sold by image- venders, and the
grotesque figure of the dog has been used on signs, business cards and in other
forms. The name of the designer has never before been made public. It was the
late Dr. R. H. Moore. Dr. Moore was a universal genius. He was a capable
physician, so clever a mechanic that he could make clocks, an excellent painter
and draughtsman, and he wished to add to his accomplishments that of sculpture.
He buried two pet black-and-tan dogs and he attempted to make a portrait of one
of them in clay. The result was "Who's Afraid ? " Of course it was a failure
as a portrait, but it was such a capital caricature that his friends begged him for
copies and he had a few cast. Somehow, the image-sellers got hold of one of them
and since then thousands of the amusing figure have been sold, for which the gen-
ial Doctor never received one cent of profit. He died a few years ago, beloved by
a large circle of friends to whom he had endeared himself by his gentle and win-
ning qualities.*
Quite a mistake — its being connected with his black-and-tan dogs ; it was
a caricature of some poUtician of the day. He left the mold in which he cast his
clay model and was amused later on to see them sold about the street. Some fig-
ures he made afterwards were very good, t

William Moore" died at his home at Garrison's-on-the-Hudson. He was
eighty-seven years old, and had been living for many years in the quiet retreat
where he died. He was of the old and widely known Moore family of Newtown,
ly. I., where he was born. William Moore was a typical correct, stately old New
Yorker, with a stiff pride and a distinguished honor. In partnership with Henry
C. De Rham, he formed the old and almost forgotten banking firm of de Rham
& Moore. Their business was largely in French securities, and the partners were
brothers-in-law. They retired nearly twenty years ago. Mr. Moore's funeral was
in St. PhilHp's Church, Garrison's.*
The Rev. Albert Zabriskie Gray pays the following tribute to his memory:t
A gentleman and a scholar in every truest, highest sense of the term,
belonging to one of our oldest and best American families, a man who had trav-
eled much in early life, and was a deeply-read scientific student almost to the
day of his death, for when all but completely deprived of the social enjoyment of
his faculties, he was still and ever pouring over his books, and two books there
were that never left his side or his hand — his Bible and his Prayer Book. Hum-
ble and devout, courteous and accomplished, unselfish and unstained, a gentleman
of the old school, in fine, a school that is rapidly passing away amid the sneering
cynicisms of a utilitarian, if not a degenerate age — a school whose word was as
good as its bond, whose chivalry was an aegis to womanhood, and whose knees
never' failed in lowly homage to God.
Never a L,ord's day that he was not at his place in the temple ; never a day
of atoning memory that he was not following devoutly its Litany. Indeed, in the
latter days of his life, when enfeebled in memory, he would start up and off for
the church, and was with difficulty made to understand that there was no service
there. And when in the church, it was beautiful to behold his venerable form,
his white head ever reverently bent, his absorbed demeanor and his tottering steps,
as almost to the last he insisted upon carrying out his warden's duty of bearing
the offerings of the faithful to the altar of God.
His liberality was as grand as it was unostentatious. Never will the writer
forget the quiet way in which he once, at a time of parish emergency, made a
princely gift of money, and deemed it as always more of a privilege than a duty.
Many a faithful, toilful missionary in the far west blessed God for the
bounty of this true steward, who never turned a deaf ear to any worthy persona
appeal or to the pathetic tale of self-sacrificing zeal on some page of The Church-
man.
And never again can the writer forget how, when he was endeavoring, un-
der great difficulties, to erect a Uttle wayside chapel for the scattered sheep of his
Highland cure, this venerable servant of God, then three-score years and ten, at
once volunteered to survey and lay out the plot, and worked faithfully at it
through much of a summer day.
We might thus proceed, giving instance after instance of devout fidelity,
or we might take up much more of your columns in relating more secular inci-
dents of this pure and beautiful life, contemporaneous with our century and iden-
tified with much of its best social, commercial and ecclesiastical history ; but we
will leave that for a worthier hand to draw out, simply closing this most affection-
ate tribute with the thought of how aptly such a life and such a death illustrate
the solemn and eloquent prayer of our service book, ' ' the testimony of a good
conscience, in the communion of the Catholic Church, in the confidence of a cer-

oflScer, who lived in a mansion at the corner of Pine and William Streets. Capt.
Phillipse was one of the most popular men of the town. He remarried after the
war and died about 1813. He joined the St. George's Society in New York, in
1788 and was Vice-President for a long time. The daughter was a favoured
belle in her day, said to have been a most charming, as well as beautiful girl.
Samuel Gouverneur and Mary Phillipse had a son who dropped the name Gouv-
erneur and took that of his grandfather " Frederick Phillipse."
626. Sarah Ann Moore" (Dr. "William^ I^ieut. Samuel*, Benjamin', Capt.
Samuel', Rev. John') and Dr. Edtsiard Hodges (Archelaus).
The following tribute by her stepdaughter, Faustina Hasse Hodges, t is
interesting :
My second mother, Miss Sarah Ann Moore', was one of the most charming
and agreeable women in the large and refined circle in which she moved. Spark-
ling and fascinating in conversation, unostentatious and natural in manner, it
was impossible for her not to attract all in the intellectual society which gathered
around her brother, Nathaniel F. Moore, LL.D., who, at the time of her marriage,
was Greek Professor and afterwards President of Columbia College, New York.
Among the intellectual she had a right to move, being the daughter of a distin-
gfuished physician, the niece of Bishop Moore, of New York, and first cousin of
Clement C. Moore, 1,1/. D., Hebrew Professor of the General Theological Seminary,
New York. She spoke French and Italian with fluency and ease, her preceptor
in the latter language having been Signer Daponte, who had arranged the libretto
of Don Giovanni for Mozart ; and she numbered literary men of England, Italy
and France amongst her friends.
During one of her visits abroad her bust was taken by Thorwaldsen ; and
in New York she had received vocal lessons of Madame Malibran. Naturally fond
of music and highly cultivated in opera and other branches of study, sacred music
of a high order, and the school of our Cathedral composers were quite unknown
to her. The services she had heard while in England had not reached her heart.
Unaccustomed to the highest form of German music, she used to exclaim,
as she heard my father's daily rendering of one or two of Sebastian Bach's fugues,
" Oh, those horrid fugues ! " But gradually and surely her tone changed. She
began to like and then to love them, and on no account would miss the Doctor's
morning fugue. She was very clever at extemporary versification, but
withal her character shone brightest in the daily round of her life. She was be-
loved by all classes, rich and poor, the scholarly and the humble. She could hear
of no case of sickness or sorrow without doing her utmost to relieve it. A per-
fect sincerity governed speech and action, she was exactly the same, whether
adorning a literary circle or reading the Bible at the bedside of one of her humble
poor. She was generous in spirit, faithful and loving in every relation of life.
Perhaps her most beautiful characteristic was the zeal and entirety with which
she entered into my father's life. With her practical mind she blended a high
and religious ideal. Her spirit was receptive to a great degree, and was capable
of great exaltation through sacred music.

On account of the illness of her husband they went to England in 1859.
They returned to New York and remained in retirement at " Woodlawn," in the
Highlands on the Hudson, the residence of her brother William Moore, Esq., un-
til her death in 1861. Here at her brother's, my second mother lay " sick, even
unto death." Devoted to my father's sacred music she asked him to play to her
" Rock of Ages." He played the fine old Moravian tune in C minor, to which
he always adapted the hymn. It was a supreme moment. Her spirit, borne per-
haps on the wings of that music, soon after rose " to world's unknown."
My father had closed the organ ; he never opened it again. He presented
it to St. Philip's Church in the Highlands.*
Dr. Edward Hodges came from Bristol, England. He was a Doctor of
Music and organist of Trinity Parish. He is thus spoken of in the Centennial
History of the Diocese of New York : "Dr. Edward Hodges the distinguished
organist and musical director of Trinity Parish, our first legitimate master in the
characteristiQ music of the Anglican Church."

Episcopal orders. He was ordained deacon by Bishop Eowth in lyOndon in Sep-

Recorder, which office he held with short intermissions until 1837. " Of the emi-
nent talents and profound judicial knowledge of the late Recorder little need be
said ; they are both extensively known and universally acknowledged. The able
manner with which he presided for so long a period in the Court of Sessions in
New York, and the extraordinary qualities he displayed in the discharge of his
onerous and important duties, are conclusive evidence of his great attainments
and high moral worth." His memory has been perpetuated in Halleck's poem,
"Our Recorder," which was the term by which he was affectionately known for
years after his long incumbency of that office had ceased. He was a second in
the duel between DeWitt Clinton and Swartwout, and afterward fought a duel
with the latter himself, and was wounded in the leg.

In the days of her father the Recorder was as important a functionary as
the Mayor, and when Lafayette visited this country in 1824 many of the duties
of receiving him fell to Recorder Riker. With her sister, Mrs. Spring, who was
then a mere child, accompanied her father when he received Gen. Lafayette at the
Battery and she was present as a member of his party at the ball given him in
Castle Garden. Before Lafayette's return to France, he said he would like to meet
the Recorder's relatives, and to give him this opportunity, a great reception was
held at the Riker residence, at which Mrs. Spring was present and was made much
of by the General.
With her father, who was an intimate friend of Gov. Clinton, Mrs. Spring
made the inaugural trip through the Erie Canal as a member of the Governor's
christening party. Mrs. Spring lived for many years at her father's country home,
"Arch Brook," on the site of which is now the new power house of the Manhattan
Elevated.

About i8o5,t the first ladies of New York City began to discover that there
was a great field open for their aid in relieving suffering and misery, and they
commenced to band together in organizing societies. The first was the Orphan
Asylum. It was founded in March, 1806. Mrs. McVickar was one of the trus-
tees, and associated with her were Mrs. Bethune, Mrs. Fair lie, and other leading
ladies. They appealed to the public, and started off with the bold declaration,
that no institution so much merited the aid of the well-inclined as this — to feed
and clothe the infant bereft of father and mother. They said: "We believe
charity in this country consists more in finding employment for the needy, than
in supporting them in idleness."
" Pity, I own, to the distrest is due ;
But when the afB^icted may themselves relieve.
The fault's their own if they will suffer on."
The next year a society was started for the " Relief of Poor Widows," of
which also Mrs. McVickar was a first manager.
In the estimate of her character! it is not easy to say how much was due
to natural temperament, how much to the early operation of religious principles.

Neither is it necessary, for in her both unquestionably concurred to form a char-
acter so peculiarly blameless, that they who knew her best and longest can now
recall to mind no one word or action, through the varied events of a long life and
the trying duties of all its social relations, which did not seem marked by a sense,
both of Christian duty and of native kindness. Her religion was truly that of the
heart ; it entered into all the daily duties of life, and under its abiding influences
was she formed to that unpretending truth of character, that single-mindedness of
heart and intention, that unruffled sweetness of temper, that spirit of quiet yet
active benevolence, and that constant reference of every religious question to re-
ligious principles by which her life and conversation were so peculiarly dis-
tinguished.
John McVickar was a merchant of New York.* He was born in Ireland
and came to America in 1786 at about the age of seventeen. He was among the
founders of the St. Patrick Society in 1792. At that time Mr. McVickar was
established and doing a leading business, under his own name, at 27 Queen Street
(Pearl). He commenced in this city in Maiden L,ane, No. 39, before 1786. In
1793 he was elected a director in the Bank of New York, and continued to be re-
elected annually until 1810. In 1795 he was made a director of the Mutual Insur-
ance Company. At the same time he was a director in the United Insurance
Company, of which his friend Nicholas Low was president, and so was until 1809.
At that time he lived in 228 Pearl Street, his old place, and kept his place of busi-
ness at 2 Burling Slip. He was Vice-President of the St. Patrick's Society in 1797.
In 1798 Nathan, his brother, got here, and the firm was John and Nathan Mc-
Vickar. In 1801 the style was changed to John McVickar & Co. John moved
from 228 Pearl Street to 231 Broadway, and Nathan went to housekeeping in the
house John left. In all this time John had continued a director in the Bank of
New York. In that year he was elected a vestryman of Trinity Church, and held
it until he died in 1812.
In 1805 John McVickar became one of the directors of the Western &
Northern Coal Co. In 1809 John took into partnership his son James and a Mr.
Stewart, and the firm was "John McVickar, Son & Stewart," at the old stand.
No. 2 Burling Slip. But both son, and John the father, lived at 231 Broadway,
while the old Nathan lived at 20 Dey Street. In 18 10 Mr. John McVickar moved
to No. 6 Vesey Street. I think he gave up business in 181 1, to his brother
Nathan, and the firm was McVickar & Stewart until 1812. In that year John
McVickar died. His widow removed from No. 6 Vesey Street back to the old
No. 231 Broadway. The firm dissolved and Nathan resided at 24 White Street.
Among the leading traits of the character of John McVickar may be noted
that nice sense of commercial honor which gives to the merchant his highest dig-
nity and leads to the noblest use of wealth. He was marked accordingly by gen-
erous aid to deserving young merchants in trouble, so much so that it became a
common speech on Change, in disastrous times, " Well, who is McVickar going
to help to-day ? " In building churches and aiding the clergy he was always prom-
inent, t On the " Dongan Domain," Staten Island, he both gave the land and
built the church. Of this large Domain coming down from Dong, an the first
Governor of the Province, one legal claim still remains to the heirs of McVickar
VIZ., the original reservation to the Lord of the Manor, of " all ponds water
courses and mines," such reservation being expressly named and provided for in
all the early deeds.
Tv^- u "f*^ ^'^ ^^^^ ^^^"^ ^^ Bloomingdale he was one of the original founders of St
Michael s Church, and during the occurrence of the yellow fever in the city he
provided for the family of Rev. Dr. Hobart, his clergyman, a safe country retreat
As a merchant he was marked by sound judgment and large views. In ad-
dition to his regular business of importation he was a large ship owner, and one
of the earliest m the direct trade with China from the port of New York His
favorite ship ' ' Betsy, ' ' Captain Carberry , was familiarly known.

Though himself without classical education, he highly valued it for his
sons, and prized and patronized the best schools. One, Archibald, enjoyed the
farther advantage of an English University training, and all in turn had the
benefit of a European visit for health or pleasure.
In 1804, he revisited, for the second and last time, his native land, accom-
panied by his son John, born in America, a circumstance which, in the days of
alien laws in England, led to a singular controversy with government, the of-
fice refusing to regard the father as alien, and McVickar insisting that as an
American citizen he was an alien, and demanding that he should be included in all
the penalties and restrictions that rested on such — a proof of patriotism, we may
add, more unquestionable than many that now pass for such.
In his visit to Ireland, so familiar was his name and reputation in commer-
cial circles that it was jokingly proposed that the I^ord lyieutenant should con-
fer on him the dignity of knighthood, as a benefactor to Ireland.
Old John McVickar had a country seat out at Bloomingdale, where he used
to spend a great deal of his time in summer, after he retired from business, and
while he lived at No. 6 Vesey Street. That was a large mansion.
The old merchant, John, was one of the most sterling men in the city. His
firm did a general commission business, receiving vessels and cargoes from all
parts of the West Indies, as well as from Europe. In addition, his house dealt
heavily in Irish goods. John McVickar & Co. were the heaviest importers of
Irish linen into the New York market. Every vessel from Belfast brought them
heavy invoices. They never sold less than a case of their linens. The store of
old John, where he did business so many years, was on the right hand side of
Burling Slip as you go from Pearl to Water. It was about in the rear of where a
bank is now located. In these times we can form no idea of the vastness of the
Irish linen trade sixty years ago. It was all old-fashioned made, spun and wove
by hand in Ireland, and, of course, there was no machinery as now. It was the
great article of trade. Here we had no such goods. The highest of our manu-
factures then was old " tow cloth." We had no cotton or woolen goods made
here. No sattinets, and the numerous fabrics of American manufacture were
made in a thousand factories. So for this small village in the olden times, Irish
linen was a great article of trade.
All the buyers used to go to old John himself, or if not in, to the brother,
Nathan. Clerks were not deemed the right persons to buy of. The buyer thought,
of course, he could get better bargains of the principals, and their say, too, as to
prices, was final, while with the clerks it was not. Old John was not above his
business. Sometimes, he would take out his watch and look at it. "I am to
meet the Board of Directors at the Bank, won't brother Nathan do?" If brother
Nathan would not do, although such an answer was rare, then brother John
would do the selling until the customer was satisfied, for he regarded good sales
as one great element of success in the career of a leading merchant, and he was
always the salesman when at home. He was rather tall, somewhat sharp-fea-
tured, and looked like a foreigner. An early portrait of him, supposed to be by
Copley, gives the impression of a fine and resolute will, yet gentle heart.

There is one name which I think was not mentioned this morning, and
it ought to have been — the honored name of Dr. McVickar. He was one of the
best preachers I heard in my early days, and his sermons, if not strictly what are
called eloquent sermons, were most instructive, and were delivered from the pul-
pit with a critical use of language and a command of his subject which made me
look up to him and feel what a glorious thing it is to be a minister of Christ.*
He was a graduate of Columbia College in 1805, after which he went to
Europe. In 1807 he offered his name to Bishop Moore as a candidate for Holy
Orders. He pursued his theological studies until 181 1, when he took orders and
became rector of St. James's Church, Hyde Park, N. Y., where he remained un-
til 181 8. In 1 81 2 he was ordained priest in Trinity Church, New York, by
Bishop Hobart. In 181 7 he was elected Professor of Moral Philosophy, Rhetoric
and Belles-Lettres. He delivered the first course of lectures on Political Economy,
established in any college in America. He filled the professorial chair for over
forty years.
In 1820 he was elected by the convention a member of the Missionary Committee of the
Diocese and was secretary ; 1826, trustee and member of the Standing Committee of the General
Theological Seminary; Vice-President of New York Bible and Common Prayer Book Society ;
Vice-President of Tract Society and Chairman of its Committee for Selection ; 1840, Vice-Presi-
dent of the City Mission Society and one of its founders, its presiding oflBcer for many years ;
trustee and Superintendent of Society for Promoting Religion and Learning ; 1828, trustee of
Trinity School, ofiScial visitor, Chairman of School Committee ; President of New York Athe-
naeum ; 1834-1868, member of Standing Committee of Diocese of New York, President ; Trus-
tee of St. Stephen's College, Annandale, from its foundation, f
From 1844 till 1862 he was chaplain to the U. S. forces at Fort Columbus,
Governor's Island, N. Y. In 1864 he retired from active duty in the college,
and was honored with the title of emeritus professor. Columbia gave him the
degree of A.M. in i8i8 and S.T.D. in 1825. Besides numerous occasional essays
and addresses, etc., he published "Narrative of the Life of Dr. Samuel Bard"
(1822), " First Lessons in Political Economy" (New York, 1825), "Memoir
of the Rev. Edmund D. Griffin," appended to the "Remains" of the latter (183 1),

Trinity Church J received a costly and beautifully wrought jeweled com-
munion chalice, which was presented by Professor Thomas Egleston, of Colum-
bia College, in memory of his wife, Augusta McVickar Egleston, who died on
January 9, 1895. In addition to the great intrinsic value of the gift, a peculiarly
interesting and touching sentiment attaches to it, for the chalice has been fash-
ioned almost wholly out of the rich gems and their settings which Mrs. Egleston
wore in life. Of the precious stones which adorn the cup, many are extremely
rare, and in several instances represent the only known specimens of the kind in
existence. All were selected by Prof. Egleston, an able mineralogist and expert
in precious stones, in his travels in foreign lands. It was his custom, in the course
of his travels, to procure such specimens and present them to his wife, and in

that way Mrs. Egleston possessed one of the most valuable collections of jewels
in this country.
This chalice, which has been pronounced by experts to be the most beau-
tiful of its kind in America, if not in the world, was made in lyondon under the
eye of Prof. Egleston. It is nine inches in height, with a bowl four and
three-eighths inches in diameter. The cup into which the chalice sets is embossed
with crosses in the shape of fleur-de-Hs, which are ornamented with three Russian
amethysts and three carbuncles. It rests upon a stem of openwork three-quar-
ters of an inch high, which sets upon a highly ornamented ribbed boss, in which
are set three sapphires, two yellow diamonds and one Nevada garnet. The knob
or boss into which thesejewels have been placed is one and five-eighths inches high,
with openwork behind the jewels; it rests upon another piece of openwork, richly
ornamented and one and one-half inches in height, which, in turn, sets directly
upon the base. The upper part of the base is ornamented with six chrysoberyls
and one green tourmaline.
Below are six panels, three of which are designs, while three are floriated.
All the designs are made of gold of the settings of the jewels as Mrs. Egleston
wore them. In the front one of these panels is the cross. In the panel above the
cross are three colored diamonds, exactly as they were set in one of Mrs. Egle-
ston's rings. To the right and left above the cross are a ruby and a diamond, to
represent the sun and moon. Below the arms of the crucifix are clusters of
grapes made of rubies. At the foot of the cross are two diamonds and a sapphire.
These are placed as they were worn in a finger ring, and below them is a circle of
eight green garnets, with small diamonds between, as they were worn in a lace
pin, which has been bent to suit the purpose. On one side of this panel, to the
left, is a chrysoberyl, and on the other side a Brazilian topaz. To the right, above
the panel, is a Nevada garnet. In the upper part of the panel are two passion
flowers in diamonds, the center being an emerald and the repouss6 work being the
leaves of the passion flower. In the center is a large moonstone, surrounded by
diamonds, as it was worn in a ring. Below are two passion flowers, each with
an emerald in the center, and between them a peridot, which was a very favorite
ring. To the right, at the foot of the panel, is a red tourmaline. Above the next
panel of the Baptism of our Eord, is a chrysoberyl, and at the foot, a carbuncle.
To the right, at the bottom, is a chrysoberyl.
Back of the crucifix, and to the right of the panel last described, is a cross
made of large stones. Above the panel is a star ruby. The arm of the cross,
which was a lace pin, is made up, beginning on the left, of a red zircon, a stone
whose dazzling brilliancy is little less than that of a diamond, a yellow sapphire
and a muldovite. Above, forming the vertical arm of the cross, is a green sap-
phire, and below a green zircon and an andalusite. Around the cross are four
rubelites. At the foot of the cross, upon one side, is a large, green garnet, and
upon the opposite side is a Nevada garnet. To the right at the bottom, is a Bra-
zilian topaz. The next panel represents the Adoration. It has a chrysoberyl
above and a very large peridot below, and on the right below is a pink tour-
maline. The next panel has a Nevada garnet above, and in the center a large
diamond surrounded by four passion flowers, the center of which are sapphires,
and below a large, yellow sapphire.
The foot of the chalice is ornamented with six moonstones, and between
them are five carbuncles, and on each side of these are twelve green garnets,
which were originally pendant from the lace pin at the foot of the crucifixion
panel. At the foot of the crucifix there is the American gem chlorastolite. In
all, there are 180 stones on the chalice.
On the under side of the paten and underneath the foot of the chalice is
this memorial inscription :
" To THB GREATER GLORY OP GOD, AND IN I^OVING MEMORY OF AuGUSTA

United States Minister to Austria in 1869. A fluent writer, he contributed hun-
dreds of timely articles to the American press.
In 1854 he organized the meetings at the Broadway Tabernacle that re-

tria, volunteered at the breaking out of the rebellion, and served throughout the
great conflict, making an enviable record for gallantry and fidelity. But to him war

he resigned, entered the bar, and rose rapidly to a high rank in the profession.
He was graduated from Columbia in 1859, and the Columbia Law School in 1867.
He married Lucy Oelrichs, by whom he has one surviving daughter. To Col.
Jay, New York owes largely the development of the old-time sport of coaching, he
having been the President of the Coaching Club from 1876 to 1896. He is a mem-

Capt. Daniel Sackett Moore', after his trip to England under Admiral
Howe, followed the sea and was for many years a successful shipmaster. He
owned the paternal residence near Newtown village. The Philadelphia Post, Oc-
tober 10, 1771, speaks of a diflference as great as that between crab-apples and
Newtown pippins. The far-famed Newtown pippin, which, " when perfectly ma-
tured, is considered by some the finest apple in our country," was first cultivated
in an orchard near Newtown village by one of the Moore family. Last winter
(1851) they sold in England at five cents each, or $20 a barrel, wholesale.* Tra-
dition says that the orchard belonged to D. S. Moore.
Daniel Sackett Moore paid a visit to his relatives in Kent County, England,
and brought home the coat of arms which now hangs on the walls of the ' ' Old
House " at Newtown (Elmhurst), Long Island.

topher Farmar, called Billopp*, Thomas Farmar, called Billopp', Anne Billopp/
m. Thomas Farmar, Christopher Billopp\ Royal Navy).
Capt. Thomas Billopp* (Farmar) was a participant in the events described
in the following article:*
There was unveiled at the seaport of Puerto Cabello, Venezuela, a monu-
ment to the memory of the Americans who died therein 1806 in the cause of
Venezuelan independence. The erection of such a monument was first decreed
two years ago by the State of Miranda, inspired by its President, General Andrade
(now President of the Republic.) The Federal Government, promptly following
this lead, decreed that an imposing monument should be put up at Puerto Cabello,
the place where the little band of Americans met their death. This is the memorial
which has just been finished and unveiled with impressive public ceremonies.
Addresses on the subject of the aid which Americans rendered to Venezuela at
that time, and of the cruel fate which several of them suffered for it, were deliv-
ered by Dr. Alberto Smith, Venezuelan Minister of Public Works, and W. W.
Russell, Secretary of the United States I^egation.
The monument commemorates an affair, now nearly a century old, the
story of which, although it is familiar in Venezuela as an incident in the country's
history, is unknown to or forgotten by most Americans. Francisco Miranda, the
Venezuelan patriot, to whose aid the Americans came, had many friends in this
country, where he had served as a young man with the Continental Army in the
Revolutionary War. In the year 1805 he thought he saw a favorable opportunity
to strike a blow for his native country's independence by creating a revolution
against the Spanish rule. Coming to New York, where he was fairly well known,
he soon succeeded in interesting in his project a man of no less importance than
the Surveyor of the Port, Colonel William Smith, who was a son-in-law of John
Adams. Colonel Smith introduced Miranda to Samuel G. Ogden, a prosperous
merchant of the city, and the three set to work with energy to organize an expe-
dition to go to Venezuela.
Mr. Ogden' s part consisted chiefly in the placing at Miranda's disposal of
a good-sized ship, the lycander, or L,eandro as it was usually called after Miranda
received it. Two hundred men were then secured to sail on the vessel, under
Miranda's command. These men were engaged in the most secret manner, and
the information vouchsafed to them was of the vaguest kind. They simply knew
that they were to go wherever Miranda led them, and it was rumored that the ex-
pedition was in some way destined to attack the Spanish rule in South America,
but nothing definite was known. These two hundred men, who thus volunteered
in the dark, were, for the most part, steady, brave, efficient fellows, who deserved
a happier fate than they received.
The lycandro was well fitted out for her war-like purposes. Besides the
eighteen cannon which she mounted along her sides, in the old-fashioned way,
she carried fifteen hundred muskets, a few rifles, three hundred pairs of pistols,
forty cannon of different sizes, two hundred swords, twenty tons of ammunition,
gun-carriages and other articles of the same military nature.
Sailing from New York on February 2, 1806, with Thomas Lewis for her
captain, the Leandro proceeded to the little port of Jacmel, on the south coast of
Hayti, where she was to make further preparations. While here, Captain Lewis
was sent to make arrangements for securing another vessel, the Emperador, and
a crew, to join the expedition. Meanwhile Miranda was occupied in instructing
his men in their coming duties. He disclosed to them the object of the voyage,
and told them they were to form the nucleus of his " Colombian Army," which
was to overthrow Spanish despotism in South America. Certain of the men were
selected by him to be officers of different ranks, and commissions were written
out on the spot. Captain Lewis returned from his mission, reporting that he
could not get the Emperador, and a search was made for something to take her
place. Two small schooners, the Baco and the Abeja, were secured, and the lit-
tle fleet set sail after a delay at Hayti of six weeks.
* N. Y. Tribune, May 17, i»
154- GENEALOGY
On the 27th of April the three vessels lay off the Venezuelan coast, near
the town of Ocumare, not far from Puerto Cabello. In the distance, two Spanish
coast-guard ships were visible, and trouble was at once anticipated. At midnight,
signals were noticed passing between the fort at Puerto Cabello and the guard-
ships. Capt. Lewis beat to quarters and kept his men at their guns until day-
light, but there was no immediate attack. In the morning, the position of Mi-
randa's vessels found the lycandro six or eight miles from shore, the Abeja further
in, and the Baco nearest of all, being only about a mile from the land. The story
of what happened that day is thus told by a man named Sherman, one of the
Americans in the expedition.
At about 9 o'clock in the morning, Powels, Donohue and two others,
tempted by the beautiful aspect of the shore, took a boat and two sailors and went
on shore to recruit themselves. In the course of an hour the wind rose and we
immediately saw the Spanish schooner bear down on the Baco. The men who
were on shore, on observing this, hastened to return to the ship, but on entering
the boat were capsized by the violence of the waves. The schooner, now within
cannon shot of the Baco, opened fire on her; in this situation the only recourse left
to the Baco was to cut her cable and escape from the Spaniard. The lycandro
and the Abeja came to her assistance. The IvCandro opened fire on the Spanish
ships, which replied. The Abeja received orders from the l,eandro to approach
the Baco in order soon to board the enemy, the I^eandro on the starboard and the
schooners on the larboard side. In conformity with this order, the Abeja ap-
proached the Baco, whose captain, Gagner, obeyed the orders of Huddle. The
two schooners together hoisted sail to execute this order, when, to the surprise
of all, the I<eandro was seen to tack and flee.
At the beginning we believed that this was a feint to deceive the Span-
iards, but on seeing the ship steadily deserting us we lost all hope. Abandoned,
and with only six cannon to defend ourselves, except a howitzer, which we
threw into the water, we tried to follow the Teandro. The enemy pursued us.
* * * * But the Baco, with the Spaniard on the weather shore, changed her
course and escaped; the enemy then followed up the Abeja, which could only sur-
render without resistance, after several broadsides from the Spaniards.
* * * * The Spanish brigantine then went in pursuit of the Baco, which also
surrendered.
There is nothing left to be said concerning the conduct of the Teandro.
The public has judged it and condemned it as cowardly and treacherous. If the
IvCandro had done her duty, and boarded the enemy, according to the orders given
to the Abeja and by her to the Baco, victory would have been ours.
So far as can be learned, the discreditable action of the Leandro has never
been satisfactorily explained. It may have been that Miranda, put to the choice
between sacrificing his comrades without a struggle and exposing himself, and
consequently his enterprise to great peril, deliberately chose the former as the
less important evil, yet it is hard to believe that the man who had fought bravely
in both the American and French revolutions would have shown this overcaptious
spirit. It is known that Miranda and the Leandro's skipper. Captain Lewis, were
on exceedingly bad terms, clashing repeatedly over their authority on the' ship,
and the responsibility for the retreat from the fight may belong as much to Lewis
as to his chief.
The Spaniards, having captured the two little vessels, with sixty men,
proceeded to treat their prisoners with their usual cruelty. They were all tried
for piracy ; ten of them, who held commissions as officers from Miranda, were
hanged at Puerto Cabello, and the rest were sentenced to the chain-gang. The
men killed, in whose memory the monument has been raised, were Captain
Thomas Billopp, Lieutenant Francis Farquharson, Lieutenant Charles Johnson,
Lieutenant Miles L. Hall, Gustave A. Bergutt, John Ferris, James Gardner,
Thomas Donohue, Paul T. George, and one other whose name is missing. The
titles of the last six are not given, but they probably held positions similar to those
of second lieutenants.

The sentence was executed on July 21, on the front of the castle. Before
it began, Miranda's proclamation and one of his tri- color flags were burned by the
executioner. The hanging of the condemned men began at 6 o'clock in the
morning, and was over shortly after noon. All the men died bravely, and most
of them in silence. Bergutt turned as he was being led to the gallows and said :
' ' Our cause will not be long in triumphing. This flag which is being burned to-day
will float victoriously over this very site." The fulfilment of the promise came
in the year 1821, when Bolivar won independence for the Colombian federation.
After being hanged, the ten men were beheaded. As a warning against
future attempts like theirs, six of the heads were sent to Caraccas, two to La
Guayra and two set up on poles at Puerto Cabello.
As for Miranda, after several subsequent attempts to create a republic in
Venezuela, all of which were failures, he died in a Spanish prison at Cadiz.
To return for a moment to the New York end of Miranda's expedition, it
is not to be supposed that Colonel Smith and Mr. Ogden escaped being brought
to trial for their connection with the affair. Although it is believed that several
other persons helped to furnish the money with which it was organized, they were
manifestly the leaders, and they were promptly arrested. The charge against
them was that they had helped to furnish munitions of war and thus foster an
attack upon the dominions of a ruler with whom the United States was friendly
and at peace— "to wit. His Majesty the King of Spain." It was at the time of
Jefferson's presidency, and when political feeling ran high between Democrats and
Federalists, and the trial created great public interest. The President removed
Colonel Smith from his ofiice of Surveyor of the Port of New York. This was
regarded then as an extremely harsh measure, and at the trial the " tyranny " of
it was put forth strongly by the defence. Popular sympathy was strongly with
Smith and Ogden — it was only twenty-three years after the close of the Revolu-
tion, and oppressed colonies were a powerful appeal — and the jury brought in a
verdict of acquittal. The proceeding is of special interest, in that it was the first
filibustering trial in this country.*
Among those sentenced to imprisonment for ten years at Omoa was Lieut.
John Moore, whose identity has not been discovered. It has been suggested that
he was John Moore, son of James Moore and Elizabeth Hallett, the nephew of Abi.
gail Moore, wife of Capt. Billopp.
The following is an incomplete list of those who were sentenced to ten
years' imprisonment at Omoa :
John Edsell, New York ; Henry Ingersoll, Mass. ; John Hayes, N. Y. ;
Peter Naulty, Ireland; Daniel M'Kay, Ireland; John M. Elliott, New York;

eastern and western bases are the coats of arms of Venezuela and the United
States. On the southern base is "The Government of the State erected this
monument in 1898." The monument is of granite 32 feet high with base 21 feet
square.
The second monument dedicated February 25, 1899, was erected at the ex-
pense of the National Government of Venezuela, and cost about $50,000. It is
an imposing and handsome structure in bronze, resting on a granite pedestal, and
is sixty -five feet high. The front panel of the pedestal contains the coats of arms
of the United States and Venezuela interwoven. On the rear there is a bronze
crown of laurel, and on the east panel a bronze plate containing the names of the
men in whose honor the monument was erected. The names on the tablet are
Captains Thomas Donohue and Thomas Billopp, Lieutenants Gustavus A. Bergutt,
Charles Johnson, Daniel Kemper, Miles I^. Hall, Paul T. George, James Gard-
ner and John Ferris, and Second Lieutenant Francis Farquharson.
Capt. Thomas Billopp' (Farmar) was the son of Col. Christopher Billopp*
(Farmar), born 1732, died 1827, at St. Johns, New Brunswick, and Willis.
He was a gentleman of character and property, and a member of the House
of Assembly. He commanded a corps of lyOyalists, or of loyal militia, raised in
the vicinity of New York City, and was actively employed in military duty. He
was taken prisoner by the Whigs and confined in the jail at Burlington, New
Jersey. Mr. Boudinot, the commissary of prisoners, in the warrant of commit-
ment, directed that irons should be put on his hands and feet, that he should be
chained to the floor of a close room, and that he should be fed on bread and water
in retaliation for the cruel treatment of Leshier and Randal, two Whig officers
who had fallen into the hands of the royal troops. In 1782 Colonel Billopp was
Superintendent of Police of Staten Island, where he lived and where he had an
estate. His property, which was large, was confiscated under the Act of New
York. At the old Billopp House*, which he erected, L,ord Howe, as a commis-
sioner of the mother-country, met Franklin, John Adams and Edward Rutledge, a
Committee of Congress, in the hope of adjusting difficulties, and of inducing the
Colonies to return to their allegiance. During the war, Lord Howe, General
Kniphausen, Colonel Simcoe, and other officers of rank in the royal service, were
frequent guests of Colonel Billopp at this house. In 1783 he was one of the fifty-
five petitioners for lands in Nova Scotia. He went to New Brunswick soon after,
and for many years bore a prominent part in the administration of its affairs. He
was a member of the House of Assembly and of the Council, and on the death of
Governor Smythe, in 1823, he claimed the Presidency of the Government, and is-
sued his proclamation accordingly, but the Honorable Ward Chipman was a com-
petitor for the station, and was sworn into office. His two sons settled in the city
of New York, and were merchants. They were partners, and in business at the
time of the yellow fever (1798), the one married, the other single. The unmar-
ried brother (John) said to the other : " It is unnecessary that both should stay
here. You have a family and your life is of more consequence than mine, go into
the country until the sickness subsides." The married brother, the husband of
Abigail Moore, retired from the city accordingly, while the other remained and
was a victim of the fever. The survivor, whose name was Thomas, failed in bus-
iness some time after, joined the expedition of the celebrated Miranda, and was
appointed a captain; he was taken prisoner by the Spaniards and executed.!
Capt. Thomas Billopp' (Farmar) was the grandson of Thomas Billopp'
(Farmar), born 1711, who married first Stelle, by whom he had no chil-
dren, and second Sarah Leonard (S ), died about 1741, of New Jersey. The
inscription on his tombstone is "Thomas Billopp, son of Thomas Farmar."
He was the great-grandson of Anne Billopp^ who married Thomas Farmar.
Her sister, Mary Billopp, married first, Rev. Mr. Brooke, who with Rev. Thor-

Capt. Thomas Billopp^ was the great-grandson of Christopher Billopp',*
captain Royal Navy, born about 1650, died 1726, was the grandson of Christopher
Billopp, of the town of Beverly, in Yorkshire, and the son of Christopher Billopp,
of London. The Christopher, of I^ondon, is mentioned in Pepy's Diary as an
employee of Sir Christopher Wren.
Christopher Billopp' was, in 1671, made lieutenant in the Navy and ap-
pointed to the " Portsmouth," thence to the " Bristol," thence to the command
of the "Prudent Mary" (1673), on 3d February, 1674, was made captain of the
"Rainbow." In 1674 "Major," later Sir Edmond Andros, was appointed Gov-
ernor of New York. He raised a company of 100 men to take with him, the first
soldiers ever raised in England for service in America. Andros was commissioned
captain, Billopp a lieutenant. On page 221, Volume 3, of " The Documents Rela-
ting to the Colonial History of New York," is to be found a copy of his commission,
dated July 2, 1674, and signed James, Duke of York. Soon after Billopp arrived in
New York he received a patent for 1 1 65 acres for land on the west end of Staten
Island, which was followed shortly by another patent for 2000 acres contiguous to
the first, in all 3165 acres, which " plantation " was known as " Bently Manor."
In 1677 Andros appointed Billopp to command on the Delaware, headquar-
ters at New Castle. In about a year he had difl&culty with Andros, was recalled
to New York, and "for talking against the Governor in a loud voice at the Cus-
tom House" was requested to resign (1678).
Billopp remained in America about a year and then was, on the 20th of July,
1680, appointed to the command of the " Ossory," a ship of 90 guns, " and was
promoted the May following to the ' Victory, ' a ' first-rate, ' and on the death of
Sir J. Ashby in the following month, Capt. Billopp was removed to the ' lyondon,'
the largest ship at that time in the English Navy." By his will dated April 25,
1724, he left a fine estate and perpetuated the Billopp name. He had no sons, his
only children being two daughters, Mary and Anne. Anne married Thomas
Farmar and had twelve children. In Capt. Billopp' s will " The Manor of Bently "
was left to his daughter Mary during her life only, and at her death to her heirs
male according to premogeniture, but should she die without such heirs, the
property should be inherited by Christopher Farmar, the second son of his daugh-
ter Anne, and to his heirs male ; failing such issue it was to descend in regular
order to his brother in succession with like restrictions. They are all mentioned
except the eldest, "Jasper," and the youngest, "John;" the latter was probably
born after the will was drawn. Jasper was left the sum of ^20. Should there
be no heir among the Farmars, the property was to go to his ' ' right " heirs, male,
of the name of Billopp, ' ' which name was to be assumed by such one of the Far-
mars as might become his heir. The property, according to the terms of the will,
went to the Farmars, Christopher being dead. Thomas, the third son, inherited
and took the name of his maternal grandfather.
The Farmar family is much older, as far as documentary evidence goes,
and much more distinguished than the Billopp. Thomas Farmar and his wife
Emmotte, the widow of Henry Wenman and the daughter of Mr. Hervey, of
Herefordshire, are the first of the name of whom we now have any documentary
evidence. The will of the said Thomas is dated September 9, 1485.

army in which he was an officer of rank. For his services he received several large
estates in the counties of Cork and Tipperary. He was killed in battle, leaving a
son, Robert Fermour. This second Robert Farmour's second son, was Jaspar Far-
mar, who married the eldest daughter of Anthony Gamble, of County Cork, and re-
sided at Garron- Kenny Fange in that county. Jasper's eldest son was Major Jasper
Farmar. When Oliver Cromwell carried his war into Ireland, among the Royalists
opposed to him was the Farmar family, and few of the friends of the unfortunate
King, Charles ist, suffered more in their estates than did Jasper Farmar and his
sons. The}' were deprived of their lands and with what property they were able
to carry with them were eventually compelled to take refuge in England where
they remained until after the restoration, when they received some compensation
for their losses. That the family was not in a state of utter poverty may be de-
duced from the following, taken from i\i& Pennsylvania Magazme of History, 'Woluras.
8, page 336, where we find the account of the arrival of the family in Philadelphia.
" The ' Bristol Merchant,' John Stephens commander, arrived here the loth of gth
month, 1685." The passengers named are as follows, viz., "Jasper Farmar, Senior,
his family ; Mary Farmar, widdow, Edward Farmar, Edward Batsford, Sarah
Farmar, John Farmar, Katharine Farmar, Jasper Farmar, Junior's family ;
Thomas Farmar, Katharine Farmar, widdow ; Elizabeth Farmar, Katharine Far-
mar, Junior." The family brought with them twenty servants; theirnames are re-
corded in the same article, page 337. Some of these servants were the progenitors
of some of the most prominent people in Pennsylvania. Both the Jaspers died
on the voyage, which accounts for Mary and Katharine both being represented as
widows. The will of Jasper, Sr. , is dated " 7 mo. 25, 1685," and was proved
" 2d of nth mo,, 1685." Eettersof administration to the estate of Jasper, Jr.,
were issued 19th nth mo., 1685. From the same fertile source of information I
find the following {Pennsylvania Magazine of History, Volume 4, page 354):
' ' Mary Farmar, widow of Joseph Farmar, * * * settled on a tract of five
thousand acres of land purchased from William Penn, embracing all of Farmar's
or Whitemarsh Township, Philadelphia County, south of Skippack Road."
Thomas Farmar, son of Jasper and Katharine Farmar, who could have
been but a mere boy when he arrived in Philadelphia, is frequently mentioned in
letters from Penn to his agents. In 1701 Penn appointed him Sheriff of Philadel-
phia (idem. Volume 3, page 211). The following year he resigned that office
to return to England, probably to marry Anne Billopp. Anyhow the eldest son,
Jasper, was born 1707.
A certain Thomas Farmar lies buried in the chapel of Ummerton Church
in Oxfordshire, where the tombs of others of his family are also found. This
Thomas died in 1580, and his executors erected a raised monument of white mar-
ble, whereon lies his efiigy in armor and the effigy of his wife, and around the
verge is the following Eatin inscription : " Thoma: Farmar, armigero, viro animi

39. Nathaniel Moore' (Capt. Samuel', Rev. John^ and Joanna Prud=
den' (Rev. John', m. , Rev. Peter\ m. Joanna Boyse (Rev. John, m.

If a plan for the scattering of their sons had been deliberately formed by
the early settlers, no better one could have been found than that employed in the
settlement of the land on I^ong Island by the English. A company was formed
which secured a patent and bought a tract of land. Each member was granted a
lot upon which to build a house in addition to twenty or forty acres for tillage for
his household wants. The remainder of the land was held in common for pastur-
age and fuel. The right to the use of this common was proportioned to the orig-
inal cash paid in. The only way for a son to obtain a lot was to inherit it or buy
it from a neighbor. With the large families neither was possible. This arrange-
ment checked the home growth, and when New Jersey lands were offered for sale
there was a rush froml^ong Island. The lands of New Jersey were desirable and
cheap and the taxes were low, on which account the younger sons of Long Island
settlers were attracted. Several of the grandsons of Rev. John Moore' settled in
New Jersey, one, John Moore^ as early as 1695. In 1708, at the age of twenty,
Nathaniel Moore' came to Hopewell Township, Hunterdon County. As these
young men of Long Island started out to found a new state, it will not be amiss to
give a rapid history of the territory they were to develop. March 12, 1664,
Charles II, King of Great Britain, by royal charter*, made a grant of territory in
America to his brother James, Duke of York. June 23, 1664, James conveyed!
to John, Lord Berkley, and Sir George Carteret the portion which then for the
first time was named New Caeserea or New Jersey, and which corresponds to the
state of that name. March 18, 1673 John, Lord Berkley, sold what afterward
became West Jersey to the Quaker, John Fenwicke, trustee for the Quaker, Ed-
ward Billinge and others. February 9, 1674, John Fenwicke and Edward Bil-
linge sold to William Penn, Gawen Lawry, Nicholas Lucas, the half of New Jer-
sey. July I, 1676, New Jersey was divided into East Jersey and West Jersey,
Sir George Carteret getting East Jersey and William Penn, Gawen Lawry, Nich-
olas Lucas and Edward Billinge, West Jersey. This deed settled the line between
the two parts of New Jersey. West Jersey was divided into one hundred parts
and distributed among the proprietors, the portion called "the 30,000 acres,"
above the Falls of the Delaware (Trenton), becoming the property of Thomas
Sadler and Edward Billinge. October 20, 1685, Dr. Daniel Coxe, of London,
bought of Thomas Sadler and Edward Billinge the 30,000-acre tract which was
the original township of Hopewell. March 30, 1688, J Dr. Daniel Coxe, through
his agent, Adlord Bowde, bought the land from the Indians. March 4, 1691, Dr.
Coxe, who owned twenty-two shares, conveyed the territory and government to
the West Jersey Society. In 1707, Daniel Leeds§ made a resurvey of the Hope-
well tract for Col. Coxe. January 21, 1709-10, by act of Provincial Assembly,
Burlington County included Maidenhead, Hopewell and Amwell. March 15,
171 3-14, Hunterdon County was set off, making the Assunpink the southern
boundary. " Old Hunterdon " included then the townships of Trenton, Ewing,
Lawrence and Hopewell in Mercer County, and Morris, Sussex, Warren and Hun-
terdon Counties. March 2, 1719-20, Hopewell Township was diminished on the
south side by order of the Court.

Marcli 2nd, 1719-20. Ordered by the Court that the bounds of Trenton be entered
upon the record as followeth, ordered accordingly.
Beginning at the landing on Delaware River in Nottingham, running up sd river to the
mouth of Jacob's Creek, thence along said creek to a run called Jacob's run, thence up s<3 run
to Thatcher's swamp, along a run that runs into Shabbakunk including Ralph Hart's planta-
tion to the line that divides Hopewell from Maidenhead. Thence along s<l line until it comes
to the s<J line of Mr. Trents and Thos Lamberts land, thence along sd line between Mr. Trents
and Thomas Lamberts to Delaware River and so along sd river to the first mentioned station.
On the i2th day of July, 1697, Thomas Revell, agent of the West Jersey
Society, sold to Johannes I^awrenson, of Maidenhead, 1050 acres of land.* On
May 14, lyoo.t Johannes I,awrenson conveyed his right to " Richbell Mott, of
Hamstend bounds, upon the Island of Nassau in the Province of New York."
Nathaniel Moore's first appearance on record is on November 11, 1708,
when Mott sold out to John Cornwall, John Mott, Nathaniel Moore and Thomas
Reed. The land actually amounted to thirteen hundred acres. The village of
Pennington was built on this section of land, measuring about one mile and three-
eighths from north to south and from east to west, embracing about two square
miles. In honor of Queen Anne it was called Queenstown. As early as 1747
it began to be called Pennington. The names Cornwall, Mott, Moore and Reed
still exist in this part of New Jersey. Nathaniel Moore's mother's name was
Reed and it is surmised that Thomas ReedJ was related to Nathaniel Moore. As
far as the records show, there was nothing to disturb the serenity of these early
settlers of New Jersey.
The next record discovered of Nathaniel Moore shows that in 1715 he was
Lieutenant in the third company of New Jersey troops, the roster being at Albany
N. Y.§
In an old account book kept by John Johnson, of Maidenhead, New Jersey,
in 1722, the name of Nathaniel Moore appears. A copy of this book is in the
possession of the New Jersey Historical Society.
As late as 1722, the list** of taxables shows 138 men subject to taxation in
Hopewell, N. J., 16 of whom were single. There were 11 slaves, 785 cattle and
horses and 480 sheep. Nathaniel Moore was taxed for 16 cattle and horses, 25
sheep, and 300 acres of land ; he was on the list of married men.
In 1725 Nathaniel Moore was made a Justice, as is shown by the following,
the original parchment being still in a good state of preservation in the Court
House at Flemington, N. J.:

The next record is of " March ye 9th, 1725H5, agreed upon by themajority
of the town to hold their town-meetings insuing at the new meeting house by John
Smiths." This John Smith was a merchant in the village, and owned the lands
adjoining the church lot east and south. There is a tradition that before a church
was built, there was stated preaching in the schoolhouse which stood on the ground
that is now the south part of the Pennington graveyard, known from time im-
memorial as the schoolhouse lot."^ This lot was conveyed by John Smith, for ten
pounds, to Nathaniel Moore, William Cornwell, John Everitt, Ralph Hunt, Jona-
than Furman, Reuben Armitage, and Stephen Baldwin.
In 1731 it appears that the title to the land was imperfect, and the follow-
ing document ushered in the great land suit which engaged the attention of the
people and the Courts for several years :
Whereas the subscribers whose names are hereunto afl6bced having purchased several
considerable Tracts of land of one Xhomas Revell an Agent of ye honourable Societie of West
Jersey (and other the residentors therein) being part of the tract known by ye name of ye
Thirty Thousand above ye falls of Delaware Ivying in ye Township of Hopewell, county of
Hunterdon and Western Division of New Jersey and of him received such conveyance as by
virtue of the Commission of Agency in the behalf of ye Honourable Society are Deemed and
esteemed in law Effectual till a more fezable title can be made appear and whereas there is now
claim laid to our severall Tracts aforesaid by Colonel Cox under a pretence of being Chief Pro-
prieter thereof whose right to us has not been made appear, Therefore not thinking ourselves
not ye least obligated to surrender up our respective lands to the use of said Cox till more
legall proprietorship can be made apparently by him appear we think it requesit on such a claim
to stand a Tryal as ye law Tantely shall Direct.
In order to which proceeding ye sd Cox by his attory has Ejected several of us from our
prmises obliging us to an Issue and we subscribers thinking it a hardship to carry on this Suit
by one prticular person wherein so many is concerned we draw this instrument obliging each of

Each of the Subscribers oblige themselves to each other in the penalty exprest equivalent to
the land ye possess (he possesses) to emburse so much money towards ye carrying of this suit

Col. Coxe gained the suit, but many of the settlers remained on the land
upon which they originally settled, having been compelled to pay for it the second
time, as indicated by the following notice :
Notice is hereby given, to all Persons settled on any Part of those two Tracts of Land
commonly known by the Name of the 30,000 and 15,000 Acres, scituate in Hopewell and Mai-
denhead in Hunterdon County, who have not purchased or leased of Daniel Coxe deceased, in

spective Possessions, or yield up the same to the Executors by the Tenth Day of November
next, or they will be proceeded against according to Law.*
In 1 73 1 the following subscription shows who were the prominent people
in Hopewell :
We hereunto subscribed inhabitants of Hopewell, in the county of Hunterdon, in the

ward the purchasing of a plantation to be a dwelling place at all times for such a gospel minister
of the Presbyterian persuasion as shall be duly and regularly called by the major part of the in-
habitants of Hopewell, which compose the Presbyterian society in that town, but to be enjoyed
by such a minister no longer than he continues to be such a lawful and regular minister to that
society, and when the relation between such minister and that society shall cease, then the said
plantation shall return to the said society, to be a dwelling place for the minister yt shall next

be above one hundred acres purchased, that the said shall be set apart towards the founding of
a Latin School upon the said plantation so purchased as above.

Although Justices were appointed as early as 1725, and perhaps earlier, the
earliest record of the proceedings of the Justices and Freeholders is given in the
following article :
' ' Records of the Proceedings of the Justices and Freeholders of the County
of Hunterdon on Public affairs Relating to said County, Beginning Sept. 7,
1739." Such is the inscription upon the outside cover of what is the earliest
official record extant of the board of freeholders of this county. It is a leather-
bound volume, and the inscription appears to have been written with a red-hot iron.
It is possible that the records of their proceedings prior to 1739 were not preserved
in any book, which supposition is rather strengthened by one of the first items
entered in the above volume :
' ' Order that there shall be a record Book provided for the said clerk of
Ten Shillings Price at the expense of the county. ' ' The following is the account
of the proceedings of the first session of the board, as found in the above-men-
tioned volume.
At a meeting of the Justices and Freeholders for the County of Hunterdon on the
Seventh Day of September, 1739, at the Court-House in Trenton, Its agreed, ordered and di-
rected as follows : first. That there be Twelve pounds allowed for the Chief Justice and the Ex-

In the unfortunate division in the Presbyterian Church, which culminated
in 1 74 1 , it is surmised that Nathaniel Moore' affiliated with the ' ' New Side ' ' party ,
for in the call to Rev. John Guild, August 15, 1739, his name does not appear,
though he had previously been prominent in the church. The " New Side "party
wished to hear Mr. James Davenport. Perhaps old associations had something
to do with this desire, as Mr. Davenport was the son of Rev. John Davenport, of
Stamford, and grandson of Rev. John Davenport, of the New Haven Colony.
Rev. Peter Prudden was associated with Rev. John Davenport, and Nathaniel
Moore's wife was the former's granddaughter and daughter of Rev. John Prudden,
of Newark.
In 1753 the name of Nathaniel Moore appears again in " A Duplicate for
the Township of Hopewell."!
The following advertisement from an old newspaper is interesting. No
evidence of sale has been found :
September, 1753. For sale Nathaniel Moore's Mills and plantation six miles above
Trenton, 400 acres : apply to William Clayton or William Pidgeon, Trenton.

Joanna Prudden'* was the daughter of Rev. John Prudden', and
-. jRev. John Prudden^ was born at Milford, Conn., November 9, 1645, and
died at Newark, N. J., December 11, 1725. In i668 he was graduated at Harvard
College ; afterward he had charge of the celebrated Roxbury Grammar School.
On the 6th of March, 1670, the inhabitants of Jamaica, L,. I., voted that
" he (Mr. Prudden), receive forty pounds a yeare inCorent county paye of the
townd " with the house and lot then in the possession of Mr. Walker and also
"A convenient new pew be made for the minister to preach in."t
On May 24, 1670, he succeeded Rev. Zechariah Walker, whose wife was
Sarah Prudden, his sister, as pastor at Jamaica, L. I., and remained there for four
years.
On January 13, 1674, the town records relate that the town desired a pos-
itive answer from Mr. Prudden whether he would remain with them as their min-
ister and his answer was "that he was under an engagement to another people
soe that he could not stay with us any longer."!
It appears that about 1674 there was some difficulty connected with his con-
tract. The only record found is a note as follows :
Court, Jamaica, December 11, 1674.
Mr. Prudden's business ordered for his contracts. §
After 1674 he preached for some time at Rye and Bedford, N. Y.**
There is a charge against him in the store account of William Mudge at
Worcester Cove for a pint of wine and a loaf of bread, probably used at a commun-
ion service, in 1675. ft
He returned to Jamaica in 1676 and was again pastor from June 19, 1676,
until 1692. He agreed " to continue in this towne, discharging the work of a
minister in this towne for the terme of ten yeer, according to the rules of the gos-
pel of this towne. ' ' They agreed to give him forty pounds a year and his fire-
wood, nineteen men to bring a load ' ' a pese yerely. ' ' There is evidence that
while he more than fulfilled his part of the contract the inhabitants of the town
failed in theirs.
Some of the inhabitants of Jamaica refused or neglected to pay the salary
agreed upon, probably, as in other places, objecting to the method of assess-
ment. The following official documents will throw light upon the subject :
MATHIAS NICHOLS TO THE REV. MR. PRUDDEN, OF JAMAICA.

I
PETITION OF THE REVD MR PRUDDEN.
To the Excellent Collonl Thomas Dongan Govern our Comanderin Chief under his majesty over
the province of New Yorke & its dependants
The humble petition of John prudden quondam minister of Jemaica in Queens County upon
Long Island Sheweth.
That your humble petitioner having served the town of Jemaica in the work of the min-
ister for the space & term of Ten years late past, hath suffered much wrong upon ye ac-
count of a certain sallary engaged by ye inhabitants of ye said Town to be paid unto him
yearly for his labour, yt a considerable part of his sallary is unjustly withheld from him through
ye defect of severall Inhabitants denying to pay their proportion levied by yearly rates though
no priviledg or advantage of my ministry hath been denyed to them. Wherefore your humble
petitioner makes his application to your Excellency and Honourd Councill for Relief and Re-
dress as you shall see meet ; not doubting of your Readines to doe what ever shall apear to be
Rationall & just ; and cause it also to be done by others, but hopeing yt your excellency to-
gether with your Honored councill considering the circumstances of ye premisses will take the
most efFectuall care and order that what is due to your petitioner by contract & agreement for
ye time past may be honestly payed and performed to him (without trouble and constraint by
course of Law which would be unpleasant and discomendable on all hands) your petitioner
willingly submits to your pleasure therein being persuaded that your Excellency will not allow
yt after your petitioner hath (to his disadvantage) served a people ten years upon ye account
of a firm contract he should be defrauded and deprived of a considerable part of his reward en-
gaged, nor necessitated to desert his calling and the coUony to prevent ye like abuse which
would unavoidably carry some reflexion upon those in whose power it is & remaines to prevent
or redres such wrongs.
Your humble petitioner only requesteth further that if a considerabl numbr of the con-
gregationall profession & perswasion should be desirous yt he would continue to be their min-
ister and maintain him at their own cost & charge by a voluntary contribution your Excellency
& the Honored Council would pleas to give approbation thereunto which we hope will neither
be offensive nor prejudiciall to any person or persons under ye Liberty granted by our gracious
Soveraign : your so doing will give encouragement unto us yt are settled in this province & an
invitation to others or at least remove evill surmizals against ye government which too many
in ye Neighbouring Collony are apt to entertain to the prejudice of his Majesties iutrest in this
province. Thus craving ye heavens assistance & direction to guide your consultations to
ye glory of God & comou good your petitioner Remaines at your service.
1688 John Prudden.
CERTIFICATE.
We whose names are subscribed doe testifie that the inhabitants and ifreeholders of
Jemaica at a publick meeting call to treat vpith Mr John Prudden to be their minister June
ye 19th 1676 did (after he had declared his judgment and proposed his terms) by a town act
freely and firmly promis and engage to give unto Mr prudden the accomodations which he
now possesseth and a yearly sallary of fourty pounds to be paid to him or his order so long as
he should continue in ye Town imployed in ye work of ye ministry and his fire-wood brought
home free as specified in ye town registry. Furthermore we doe testifie that Mr John prudden
hath continued in this towne discharging the work of a minister according to the way of
ye churches in New England the ffuU term of ten years and more since the Town caled him &
covenanted with him for his labour in ye ministry.*
Nehemiah Smith.
John Carpenter.
It has been said that Rev. John Prudden was the first regular pastor of the
first regularly organized Presbyterian Church in America. Considerable discus-
sion has resulted but the matter seems to be a question of terms. Rev. John
Moore was pastor at Newtown, ly. I., in 1652, and a similar discussion has arisen
in reference to him. Rev. James M. MacDonald, D.D., for many years pastor at
Princeton, N. J., and a trustee of the Seminary there, says : " The Church of
Jamaica is the oldest Presbyterian Churchf established by the English in America.
It had been in existence some eight or ten years before Francis Makemie, styled
the father of American Presbyterianism, arrived in Maryland."
Also from the same authority : " And for the confirmation of this Agree-
ment the town did voluntarily engage themselves at a town meeting held the 3d
* Documentary History of New York, III, 194, etc.
t The same claim is made for the Hempstead Church.

of June (1672), that they would not obstruct or hinder but rather further the
coming into a 'church way,' according to the rules of the Gospel in this town by
Mr. Prudden and such as will join him.* The coming into a 'church way,' ac-
cording to the rules of the Gospel, is language that cannot be mistaken; it must re-
fer to the organization of a church. It proves that up to 3d June, 1672, there had
been no regularly constituted Church of Christ in this place."
While undoubtedly there were many Presbyterians among the Congrega-
tionalists of New England it is exceedingly difficult to decide the question. The
Newark settlement was Congregational, and Rev. John Prudden was pastor there
as late as 1698. Rev. John Brooke was appointed by the Society for the Propaga-
tion of the Gospel in Foreign Parts one of its missionaries in America. In his
first report, August 20, 1705, he says: " There are five Independent Ministers in
and about the places I preach at and the greatest part of the people are followers
of them." The places he " preached at " were Elizabeth Town and Perth Amboy.
The five Independent Ministers were Messrs. Harriman and Melyen, of Elizabeth
Town, John Prudden, of Newark, Samuel Shepard, of Woodbridge and the minis-
ter of Piscataway.t
For some unexplained reason, in 1686, Rev. John Prudden deeded his prop-
erty to Grace, the widow of his elder brother, Samuel. Grace Judson was the
daughter of Lieut. Joseph Judson, of Stratford, Ct., and his wife, Sarah, daughter
of John Porter, of Weathersfield.
In 1689 he was chosen, by Jamaica, J Deputy to the Colonial Assembly of
New York. At a town meeting held on the loth day of June, 1689 :
Mr. Prudden & NatW Denton, Sr., was chosen to go to York to meete with the
rest of the deputis of the respective townes for to consider and advise one with another of what
shall be for the good welfare and services of the contry and to act with the rest of the deputies
in anything that may tend thereunto and also if they will see cause to make any application to
our Sovereign King & Queen for anything that may tend to the good of the whole CoUony to
act with them. By order of the Town per me
Nathaniel Denton, Clerk.
The proceedings of the people of Newark, N. J., in reference to their
call of Mr. Prudden in 1692, are annexed :
At a Newark, N. J., Town Meeting, August 23rd, 1692, ? — It was consulted, consented,

Rev. John Prudden died in 1725, and was buried in the old burying ground
at Newark. Over his remains was placed a slab inscribed :

DECBR IITH 1725, AGED 80 YRS.
" Nor grace nor favour fili,
MY Reins, — Loe room
FOR YE THERE YET REMAINS"
In 1748 his body was removed to the rear of the First Presbyterian
Church.
The original slab, having the above inscription, was placed in the walls of
the First Presbyterian Church of Newark by Mr. William R. Ailing, one of the
descendants of Rev. John Prudden, where it still remains.
Joanna^ was the granddaughter of Rev. Peter Prudden^* and his wife
Joanna Boyse\ He was born in Yorkshire, England, 1601, died at Milford, Ct.,
July 6, 1656. He preached in Yorkshire and Herefordshire and brought his congre-
gation with him probably in the ' ' Hector ' ' or its consort the ' ' Martin, ' ' landing at
Boston June 26, 1637, with Rev. John Davenport, John Harvard, Samuel Eaton and
other prominent Puritans. In March, 1638, he sailed from Boston and in April
reached Quinnepiac, now New Haven, Conn., and assisted in laying the foundation
of a Colony there. He preached his first sermon in the Colony at New Haven,
18th April, 1638, under a large spreading oak which stood near the present corner
of George and College Streets, from the textf : ' ' The voice of one crying in
the wilderness, prepare ye the way of the l,ord and make His paths straight."
In the summer of 1638 he preached at Weathersfield. In February, 1639, land
for a new settlement was purchased from the Indians, and later Milford was
founded. He was one of the ' ' Seven Pillars of Wepauwang or Milford, ' ' and one
of the Judges of the Colony, 1640, as shown below ;
The first general or town meeting of the planters was held November 20,
1639. It was then determined that the power of electing officers and persons to
divide the land into lots and take order for the timber and manage the interests
of the plantation should be in the church only. It was also agreed that they
should guide themselves in all their doings by the written word of God as they
had light from it.
William Fowler, Esq., Edmund Tapp, Esq., Zachariah Whitman, Deacon
John Atwood and Richard Miles were then chosen for Judges in all civil affairs
and to try all causes between man and man as a Court, to punish any offences and
sin against the commandments therein, till a body of laws shall be established
they are to observe and apply themselves to the rule of the written word of God.
This Court was to sit once in six weeks and was authorized to call a gen-
eral meeting or Court of the planters, to examine witnesses upon oath and to pun-
ish all misdemeanors. These five men were invested by the planters with powers
in the place of magistry for the public good according to the tenor of the writing
and agreement to that purpose.
About twelve months after, November 24, 1640, Mr. John Sherman was
chosen one of the Judges in the room of Mr. Miles. The next year the Rev. Mr.

Prudden was elected one of them in the place of Mr. Atwood. The following May
27, 1641, Mr. Prudden excused himself from serving any longer in the capacity
of Magistrate and Mr. Atwood was re-elected.*
It was not until April 8, 1640, that Mr. Prudden was ordained pastor of the
Milford Church. We have his own words for it, in his own handwriting, in which
the early Milford records were kept.
I, Peter Prudden, was called to the office of pastor of this church and ordained at
New Haven, by Zachariah Whitman, William Fowler, Edmund Tapp, designed by ye church to
that work, Zachariah Whitman being the moderator for that meeting in a day of solemn humil-
iation upon ye third Wednesday in April, 1640, being, I remember, ye 18th day of ye month, f
The following tribute is paid to his memory by Cotton Mather : %
That greatest of peace-makers, the Son of God, has assured us, ' ' Blessed are the peace-
makers, for they shall be called the children of God." I am sure then, 'tis a blessed child of
God whose name is now before us ; (Prudden shall we call him ? or. Prudent?), who, besides
his other excellent qualities, was noted for a singular faculty to sweeten, compose and qualify
exasperated spirits and stop or heal all contentions. Whence it was that his town of Milford
enjoyed peace with truth all his days, notwithstanding some dispositions to variance, which
afterwards broke forth among them.
God had marvellously blessed his ministry in England, unto many about Herefordshire
and near Wales, from whence, when he came into New England, there came therefore many
considerable persons with him.
At their arrival in this country, they were so mindful of their business here, that they
gathered churches before they had erected houses for the churches to meet in. There were then
two famous churches gathered at New Haven ; gathered in two days, one following upon the
other, Mr. Davenport's and Mr. Prudden's ; and this with one singular circumstance, that a
mighty bam was the place, wherein the duties of that solemnity were attended. Our glorious
Lord Jesus Christ himself being bom in a stable and laid in one of those moveable and four-
squared little vessels wherein they brought meat unto the cattle, it was the more allowable that
a church, which is the mystical body of that Lord, should thus be born in a bam. And in this
translation, I behold our Lord, " with his fan in his hand, purging his floor, and gathering her
wheat into the garner."
That holy man, Mr. Philip Henry, being reproached by his persecutors that his meeting-
place had been a barn, pleasantly answered, " No new thing, to turn a thrashing-floor into a
temple." So did our Christians at New Haven.
The next year Mr. Prudden, with his church, removed unto Milford, where he lived
many years, an example of piety, gravity, and boiling zeal, against the growing evils of the
times.
And though he had a numerous family, yet such was his discretion, that without much
distraction, he provided comfortably for them, notwithstanding the difficult circumstances
wherewith an infant plantation was incumbered.
He continued an able and faithful servant of the churches, until about the fifty-sixth
year of his own age, and the fifty-sixth of the present age, when his death was felt by the col-
ony as the fall of a pillar which made the whole fabrick to shake.
Like that of Piccart, now let our Prudden lie under this
EPITAPH.
Dogmate non tantus fuit Auditoribus Idem :
Exemplo in Vita ; jam quoque morte, praeit.^
Gov. Winthrop said of him : " He was useful in his place, and of much es-
teem in the Colony." Mr. Prudden, with other settlers, left large estates in Eng-
land. His posterity received the interest money and rent of this property for many
years.
On the occasion of the celebration of the two hundred and fiftieth anniver-
sary of the founding of the town of Milford, Conn., on August 28th, 1889,
there was dedicated a memorial bridge over the river at that point, in honor
of its founders. One of the end stones on the south parapet is inscribed
* A Statistical Account of the Township of Milford, by Erastus Scranton, A.M., in writing, and to be found
in the Town Clerk's office, Milford, Ct. As authority it states " Facts gathered from authentic records and re-
cited principally in words of those who related facts. "

to the first pastor of the church, Rev. Peter Prudden. On August 25th, the two-
hundred and fiftieth anniversay of the founding of the First Church of Christ, of
Milford, Ct., a mural tablet was unveiled to the memory of Rev. Peter Prudden.
In the Memorial Hall at Hartford, Conn., among the members of the early

The will of Theophilus', 1688, is appended :*
In the name of God, Amen.
This three & twentyeth day of January in the year of our Lord God one thousand six hundred
eighty & eight.
THEOPHILOS PHILLIPS of Newto wue in Queens County on Long Island in the prov-
ince of New Yorke in America being in perfect memory in sound & whole mind, God the

chester for company to beat arms against the Dutch, 1663 denounced as traitor
by the Dutch, and 1665 deputy from Westchester County to convention which

Elizabeth Burroughs and John Burroughs, says Dr. Cooley,J are "most
probably of the family of Rev. Jeremiah Burroughs," a Westminster divine, who
preached at Stepney and Cripplegate, a graduate of Cambridge, a learned man,
and the author of twenty-five works, who died November 14, 1646, aged 46.
Keziah Phillips" was the great-great-granddaughter of Zerubabel
Phillips^, who was born at Watertown, Mass., April 6, 1632, and died on Eong
Island, 1687. He removed from Massachusetts to Southampton, L. I., where he
is found upon the tax list in 1657 as Ensign and head of a family. "July 12,
1662, Sorobabell Phillips marked a 3-year old horse with a hapeny under the off
ear and J. C. on the far shoulder, being a blackish brown and sould it prsently to
Isacke hedges, brought up by Jeremy mechin and George Miller. "§ In the same
year he was Ensign, and in 1668 and 1669 was Eieutenant of Militia. His name
appears in 1668 on the occasion of the reception given to Governor Eovelace.
July 4, 1672, he was granted a license for a house of entertainment in Southamp-
ton, E. I. In 1683, on his report of thetaxables, he signs himself Constable. He
appears to have been married three times. His first wife's name is unknown, his
second, to whom he was married in 1663, was Ann White, widow of John White.**
In 1687 he was married to Martha Herrick, daughter of James.

Keziah Phillips* was the great-great-great-granddaughter of ^ev. George
Phillips, sometimes called "the founder of Congregationalism in America,"
was born in Rainham, Norfolk County, England, in 1593, and died at Watertown,
Mass., July i, 1644. He was originally minister of the established church* in
Boxted, Essex County, England, was a non-conformist ; he received his B.A.
at Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, in 1613, and his A.M. in 1617. He
left England, April 12, 1630, and came to America in the Arbella with Gov.
Winthrop, arriving at Salem, Mass., June 12, 1630, and was one of the founders
of Bay Colony. He became the first pastor of the Watertown Church July, 1630.
At one time he was a member of the Governor's Council. It is said that " he was
the first to bring about the institution of a representative government." He was
the ancestor of a distinguished body of men, notably, of John Phillips, first Mayor
of Boston, of Lieutenant-Governor Phillips, of Massachusetts, of Samuel and
John Phillips, founders of the Phillips Academies at Exeter and Andover, of
Edward, the benefactor of Harvard, of Wendell, the great American orator, of
Phillips Brooks, late Bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church.
Cotton Mather in his Magnaliaf thus eulogizes him :
THE LIFE OF MR GEORGE PHILIPS.
Vita Ministri est Censura et Cynosura.
Not only the common sign-posts of every town, but also some famous orders of knight-
hood in the most famous nations of Europe, have entertained us with traditions of a certain
champion, by the name of St. GEORGE dignified and distinguished. Now, whilst many do,
with Calvin, reckon this notable St. George, with his brother, St. Kit, among the larvae and
fables of the romantic monks, others from the honourable mention of him in so many liturgies,
do think there might be such a man ; but then he must be no other, neither better nor worse, in

the most probable opinion of Raiuolds, than George the Arrian bishop of Alexandria, the an-
tagonist and adversary of Athanasius ; of this memorable trooper, the Arrians feigned miracles,
and with certain disguises imposed the fame of him upon the orthodox. But the churches of
New England being wholly unconcerned with any such a St. George, and wishing that they
had been less concerned with many Quakers, whose chief apostles have been so many of them
called Georges, but in effect so many dragons, there was one George who was indeed among the
first saints of New England ! and that excellent man of our land was Mr. George Philips.
He was born at Raymund,* in the county of Norfolk ; descended of honest parents, who
were encouraged by his great proficiency at the grammar school to send him unto the univer-
sity, where his good invention, strong memory, and solid judgment, with the blessing of God
upon all attained a degree of learning that may be called eminent. The diligent reading of the
fathers, while he was yet himself among young men, was one of the things that gave a special
ornament unto that skill in theology, whereto he attained ; but that which yet further fitted
him to become a divine, was his being " made partaker of the divine nature," by the sanctifica-
tion of all his abilities for the service of God, in a true regeneration.
Devoting himself to the work of the ministry, his employment befel him at Boxford,
in Essex ; whereof he found much acceptance with good men ; as being a man " mighty in the
scriptures." But his acquaintance with the writings and persons of some old non-conformists
had instilled into him such principles about church-government, as were like to make him un-
acceptable unto some who then drove the world before them. Some of these principles he had
intimated in his publick preaching, whereupon some of his unsatisfied hearers repaired unto
old Mr. Rogers, of Dedham, with some intimations of their dissatisfaction. But Mr. Rogers,
although he had not much studied the controversy, yet had so high a respect for Mr. Philips,
that he said, he ' ' believed Mr. Philips would preach nothing without some good evidence for
it from the word of God, and therefore they should be willing to regard whatever Mr. Philips
might, from that word, make evident unto them." And as for Mr. Philips, the more he was
put upon the study and searching of the truth, in the matter controverted, the more he was
confirmed in his own opinion of it.
When the spirit of persecution did at length, with the extremest violence, urge a con-
formity to ways and parts of divine worship, conscientiously scrupled by such persons as our
Mr. Philips, he, with many more of his neighbors, entertained thoughts of transporting them-
selves and their families into the deserts of America, to prosecute and propagate the glorious de-
signs of the gospel, and spread the light of it in those " goings dowu of the sun," and being re-
solved accordingly to accompany the excellent Mr. Winthrop in that undertaking, he, with
many other devout Christians, embarked for New England, where they arrived in the year
1630, through the good hand of God upon them. Here, quickly after his landing, he lost the
desire of his eyes, in the death of his desirable consort, who, though an only child, had cheer-
fully left her parents, to serve the Lord Jesus Christ with her husband in a terrible wilderness.
At Salem she died, entering into the everlasting peace, and was very solemnly interred near the
Right Honorable the Lady Arabella, the sister of the Earl of Lincoln, who also took New
England in her way to heaven.
Mr. Philips, with several gentlemen and other Christians, having chosen a place upon
Charles River for a town, which they called Water-Town, they resolved that they would com-
bine into a church-fellowship there, as their first work, and build the house of God before they
could build many houses for themselves; thus they " sought, first, the kingdom of God ! "
And, indeed, Mr. Philips being better acquainted with the true church discipline than most of
the ministers that came with him into the country, their proceedings about the gathering and
ordering of their church, were methodical enough, though not made in all things a pattern for
all the rest. Upon a day set apart for solemn fasting and prayer, the very next month after
they came ashore, they entered into this holy covenant.
"July 30, 1630.
" We whose names are hereto subscribed, having through God's mercy escaped out of
pollutions of the world, and been taken into the society of his people, with all thankfulness do
hereby both with heart and hand acknowledge, that his gracious goodness and fatherly care
towards us, and for further and more full declaration thereof, to the present and future ages,
have undertaken (for the promoting of his glory and the church's good, and the honour of our
blessedjesus, inour more full and free subjecting of ourselves and ours, under his gracious gov-
ernment, in the practice of, and obedience unto all his holy ordinances and orders, which he hath
pleased to prescribe and impose upon us), a long and hazardous voyage from east to west
from Old England in Europe, to New-England in America ; that we may walk before him, and
'serve him without fear in holiness and righteousness, all the days of our lives,' and being safely
arrived here and thus far onwards peaceably preserved by his special providence, that we may
bring forth our intentions into actions, and perfect our resolutions, in the beginnings of some
just and meet executions ; we have separated the day above written from all other services, and
dedicated it wholly to the Lord in divine employments, for a day of afflicting our souls' and
humbhng ourselves before the Lord, to seek him, and at his hands, a way to walk in, by fast-
ing and prayer, that we might know what was good in his sight : and the Lord was intreated of
us.
"For in the end of that day, after the finishing of our publick duties, we do all, before
we depart, solemnly and with all our hearts, personally, man by man for our selves and ours

written."
About forty men, whereof the first was that excellent Knight Sir Richard Saltonstal,
then subscribed this instrument, in order unto their coalescence into a church-estate, which I
have the more particularly recited, because it was one of the first ecclesiastical transactions of
this nature managed in the colony. But in after time, they that joined unto the church, sub-
scribed a form of the covenant, somewhat altered, with a " confession of faith " annexed unto
it.
A church of believers being thus gathered at Watertown, this reverend man continued
for divers years among them, faithfully discharging the duties of his ministry to the " flock,
whereof he was made the overseer ; " and as a " faithful steward giving to every one their meat
in due season." Herein he demonstrated himself to be a real divine ; but not in any thing more
than in his most intimate acquaintance with the divine oracles of the Scripture ; being fully of
Jerom's perswasion, Ama Scientiam Scripturarum, et Vitia Carnis non amabis. He had so
thoroughly perused and pondered them, that he was able on the sudden to turn unto any text,
without the help of Concordances ; and they were so much his delight, that as it has been by
some of his family affirmed, " he read overthe whole Bible sixtimes every year : " nevertheless
he did use to say, "That every time he read the Bible, he observed or collected something,
which he never did before." There was a famous prince of Transylvania, who found the time
to read over the Bible no less than twenty-seven times. There was a famous King of Arragon,
who read over the Bible fourteen times, with Lyra's Commentaries. A religious person, who
was a close prisoner in a dark dungeon, having a candle brought him, for the few minutes in
the day when his poor meals were to be eaten, chose then to read a little of his Bible, and eat
his necessary food when the candle was gone. Yea, the Emperour Theodosius wrote out the
New Testament with his own hand ; and Bonaventure did as much by the Old ; and some have,
like Zuinglius and Beza, lodged vast paragraphs of it in the memories. Among such memora-
ble students in the Scriptures, our Philips deserves to havesomereraembrance: who was fully of
the opinion expressed by Luther, "If the letters of Princes are to be read three times over,
surely then God's letters (as Gregory calls the Scriptures) are to be read seven times thrice, yea
seventy times seven, and, if it could be, a thousand times over ; ' ' and he might say with Ridley,
giving an account of how much of the Bible he had learnt by heart, ' ' Though in time a great
part of the study departed from me, yet the sweet smell thereof, I trust, I shall carry with me
to heaven." Indeed being well skilled in the original tongues, he could see further into the
Scriptures than most other men and thereby being "made wise unto salvation," he also be-
came " a man of God, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. "
Hence also he became an able disputant, and ready upon all occasions to maintain
what he delivered from the word of God, for which cause his hearers counted him, ' ' the ir-
refragable Doctor," though he were so humble and modest, as to be very averse unto disputa-
tion until driven thereto by extream necessity. One of his hearers after some conference with
him'about infant-baptism, and several points of church-discipline, obtained a copy of the argu-
ments in writing for his further satisfaction. This copy the man sends over to England, which
an Anabaptist there published with a pretended confutation ; whereby the truth lost nothing,
for Mr. Philips hereupon published a judicious treatise, entitled, " A Vindication of Infant-Bap-
tism," whereto there is added another, "Of the Church." This book was honorably received
and mentioned, by the eminent assembly of London ministers ; and a preface full of honour was
thereto prefixed by the famous Mr. Thomas Shepard ; notwithstanding the diffi^rence between
him and Mr. PhiHps, upon one or two points, whereabout those two learned neighbors managed
a controversy with so much reason, and yet candor and kindness, that if all theological con-
troversies had been so handled, we need not so much wish, Liberari ab Implacabilibus Theolo-
About fourteen years continued he in his ministry at Watertown, in which time his
ministry was blessed for the conversion of many unto God, and for the edification and confir-
mation of many that were converted. He was, indeed, " a good man, and full of faith, and of
the Holy Ghost • and for that cause he was not only in publick, but in private also, very full
of holy discourse on all occasions ; especially on the Lord's day at noon, the time intervening
between the two exercises, he would spend in conferring with such of his good people as re-
sorted unto his house, at such a rate as marvellously ministered grace unto the hearers ; not
wanting any time then, as it seems, for any further preparations than what he had still afore-
hand made for the publick sermons of the afternoon.
He laboured under many bodily infirmities : but was especially liable unto the cholick,

Tradition says that the old house on the Watertown road, opposite the an-
cient burial ground, was the residence of the Rev. George Phillips. This house
has been somewhat modernized in its external appearance. According to the old
style, the second story projected over the first, but that has been made into a mod-
ern piazza. The interior retains many marks of its antiquity. By a record in
"Prince's Annals," Mr. Phillips's first house was built in 1630, and this was
probably his second house built on the parsonage lot. It stands back from the
road, and still makes a very respectable appearance.*
Rev. George Phillips's first wife, Elizabeth Sargeant, died shortly after his
arrival in America. His second wife was probably the widow of Capt. Robert
Weldon ; she died June 27, 1681.
Keziah Phillips" was the great-great-great-great-granddaughter of Cbristo-
pher Phillips, who was born about 1560 and lived at St. Martin's, Raymund, Nor-

of them were placed with my father, Nathaniel Moore, for whose kind treatment when they
left, one of them presented him with this Tobacco Box, stating it was all he had to give and ex-
pressed regret that he had nothing of more value to offer. It was received by him and kept as
a memento until his death in 1798, since which time a period of fifty one years it has been in the
possession of the subscriber, his son. My father kept the ferry at Lamberton for many years,
during and after the Revolution, and I recollect when General Washington crossed the river on
his way to New York, in 1789, to be inaugurated, my father had his ferry boat tastefully deco-
rated with an arch of evergreens at each end. I was then a boy about thirteen years of age and
immediately after crossing, he with a number of gentlemen and officers among whom were
Generals Mifflin, Proctor, Patterson, Col. Wray, Col. Hooper and General Philemon Dickinson
mounted on horses and proceeded to Trenton Bridge on the Assanpink, where the grand civic
arch was erected and where the matrons and their daughters dressed in white were in readiness
to receive him. I had followed on after the cavalcade and as soon as the General came up to the
arch he stopped his horse and remained uncovered until the ode was sung, when he acknowl-
edged the compliment briefly and passed onward, the matrons and misses strewing his way
with flowers. The words of the ode are a matter of history. I still have a distinct recollection
of them.

Dr. Beesley says in addition :
Mrs. Sarah Hand sister of Amos C. Moore, who signed the within paper, was one of the
thirteen misses who were dressed in white and sung the ode and threw flowers in the path of
Washington in his passage over the Assanpink Bridge in 1789. She is still living at Cape May
Court House with her son, Jonathan Hand, Esq., County Clerk, has a vivid recollection of the
scene at the Assanpink, is now in her 87th year and is probably the only person living who was
present upon that interesting and memorable occasion.
Dennisville, January 31st, 1865. Maurice Beesley.
Nathaniel Moore'* died intestate in 1798 and his son Cornelius was made
administrator the same year on April 21.
Nothing has been learned of Eleanor Van Brunt, except that Mrs. Sarah
Ellen Husted says that her Grandmother Hand used to sing Dutch songs to her
which she had learned of her mother, that Eleanor came to this country from Ger-
many (Holland ?) when she was twelve years old and lived in Trenton until she
married Nathaniel Moore.

was he to get into the heat of battle that several times General Sheridan had to
call him back. It was then he was nicknamed " Reckless Moore. " He was a

The following sketch was written by Maj. John Moore Orr, of I^eesburg,
lyoudoun Co., Va.:
John Moore'' was my grandfather. He resided at No. 279 Race Street. I
have but little personal knowledge of him prior to 1832. On the death of my
mother, March 5, 1832, I again became one of his family and so continued un-
til his death, February 12, 1834. Being then twelve years old, his character,
bearing, and conduct made an indelible impression on my memory.
John Moore was in partnership with Timothy Caldwell. In person he was
of fine physique, of commanding presence, of strong frame and most active life, of
untiring industry and of great accuracy in figures, and in fact, whatever he did he
conscientiously did well and thoroughly. He was a model of genuine manhood.
He was endowed with a broad, clear, strong mind, of sound practical judgment
and having the courage of his carefully considered opinion as to what was right.
He was often chosen to arbitrate disputes, and his awards were accepted or submit-
ted to because of the confidence in his strict integrity and sound judgment and sa-
gacity.
If I am not mistaken, he was at one time a member of the City Councils.
He had the confidence of all who knew him and he never betrayed it. His word
was literally as good as his bond.
He was bright and cheerful and his presence was a home happiness. The
mutual bearing of himself and wife was beautiful. His help was always ready to be
given to the needy and the deserving. He was just and charitable in thought and
word. He was a humane man, merciful to his beast. On one occasion he had to
go out of town on a raw windy day, and finding that the top of his gig gathered
the wind and made it hard for his horse, he put the top down and rode exposed to
the cold. The consequence was a cold which developed into a throat affection
which ended his life in 1834, in his 69th year.
His wife survived him but a short time, dying in 1835. They were buried
beside each other in the lot fronting on Arch Street belonging to the Second Pres-
byterian Church on which lot stood the Church "Session House." Their remains
were afterward removed to L,aurel Hill Cemetery or Woodlands. John Moore
was at first an Kpiscopalian, but in later life he united with the Presbyterian de-
nomination and was an active and consistent member and ruling elder in the Sec-
ond Presbyterian Church. When the Rev. C. C. Cuyler, of New York State, was
called to the pastorate of that congregation, he, by Mr. Moore's invitation, made
hishouse his home, at 279 Race Street, until his family could come to Philadelphia
and be settled in a residence. John Moore was a thorough Christian gentleman
in every fiber of his being, an earnest, humble, cheerful Christian who loved his
God with all his heart and mind and soul and strength and his neighbor as him-
self. I/Ove to God and man was the motive and guide of his life and conduct.
The Rev. Dr. Ashbel Green, of Philadelphia, the Patriarch of the Presbyterians,
was his warm and intimate friend. Dr. Green's words on the occasion of his death,
in commemoration of his excellences, are a monument to his memory and an honor
worth living or dying for. Mr. Moore's portrait* was painted by Ord or Conano
(I forget which). It is life-like and shows that he was every inch a man and a
good man. He died without shadow of spot or blemish on his name. His de-
scendants may well be proud of having such an ancestor.

ident and President. He was largely responsible for the formation of the Camden

jnore — no more in life be greeted with her loving smile ; never again hear that
gentle voice, or clasp that hand always so ready to help the poor and needy. But
as her one thought was love and gratitude to Him who gave her strength to bear
all suffering, and whose ' rod and staff comforted her through the dark valley,'
so let us, through our tears, thank Him that now
"No pain, no tears, no sorrow.
Her gentle heart will borrow ;
Sad life is past ;
Shielded and safe from sorrow.
At home at last ;
and let One most loving of us all say, ' Not a tear on her must fall. He giveth

in secret. Never unduly depressed nor exalted, she maintained a calm, unwaver-
ing confidence in the grace of Jesus Christ as sufficient for her, and was never dis-
appointed. In spite of physical suffering her life was happy — not merely in the
assurance of Divine love and the hope of glory, but in countless acts of beneficence
by which she was ever seeking to illustrate her gratitude towards God, and her
sympathy with all his children, especially with the humblest and poorest. Many
knew her chiefly through these charitable services, which were always rendered so
gracefully as not to offend the most delicate sensibility, and with such evident en-
joyment on the part of the giver as to make the receivers feel that in their accept-
ance they were conferring a pleasure greater in value than the gifts. Those who
were admitted to the nearer intercourse of her home-life — a home shared by one of
kindred spirit with herself, and whose loving care for her never wearied in its
watchfulness and devotion by night or day — while they found in it a singularly
genial and refined hospitality, found also the source of all this kindness in the
truly loving, sympathetic spirit which the gospel of Christ enjoins and the grace
of Christ imparts. There could be no doubt as to His presence when the proofs
of it were so various and abundant. She dearly and intelligently loved the church
of which she was a member. Her heart was in its worship and its welfare, and
her hand ever ready for its help. So often absent from its public ordinances as
she was compelled to be, her love grew the stronger, her interest in it deeper, and
the more earnestly she longed for the communion of the saints, and for the truth,
on which she fed as on the finest of the wheat. To no one out of her immediate
family can her memory be more precious than to the pastor, who owes so much to
her sympathy and regard, and to her ready response to every call he might make
on her heart or hand. Evidently growing more prepared, during the latter part
of her life, for her removal, her end was but a peaceful falling asleep, in the con-
fident assurance that all was well, and that she would awake to be satisfied in be-
holding the face of Him whom she had loved so sincerely and so long.*
X. J. Maynard had every quality requisite to command success and to in-
sure respect in the business of life. His judgment was accurate, clear and dis-
criminating, never perverted by passion, and aided by a deliberate self-possession.
He had a mind remarkably well balanced, and a firmness and decision which
nothing could daunt. He was a wise counselor, and a liberal, enterprising man
of business ; joined to these attributes he had a heart of almost womanly tender-
ness, ever ready to anticipate and care for the feelings and wants of others. In
him strength and gentleness were blended into the manly proportions of a pol-
ished Christian gentleman. He was a man of consistent, humble piety. He so
lived as to show that practical religion was in perfect harmony with every attri-
bute of a manly character, and when he came to die he could trustingly rely on the
promises of his Maker, and calmly welcome death as a messenger of good. Though
he lingered long in hourly expectation of his departure, he never murmured nor
doubted, and finally he quietly breathed his last, leaving a name without spot or
blemish, fragrant with the memory of good deeds and lovely qualities.*

Armitage Green was one of our most respectable and highly esteemed citi-

ultimate recovery, his departure from our midst has shed a gloom over the com-

Elizabeth. After the death of Mr. Harris he carried on the business at the foot
of Orange Street, in Wilmington. He served in the War of 1812.

than Hand' (Jonathan*, Shamgar", Shamgar*, John').
Miss Sarah Moore' was one of the thirteen young girls who represented the
States and greeted General Washington as he passed under the triumphal arcli on
entering Trenton, April 21, 1789. The following contemporary accounts* are of
interest :
Trenton, April 21. — This day we were honored with the presence of his
Excellency the President of the United States of America on his way to New
York. A troop of horse, commanded by Capt. Carle, and a company of infantry,
commanded by Capt. Halon, completely equipped, and in full uniform, with a
large concourse of the gentlemen and inhabitants of the town and neighbourhood,
lined the Jersey bank of the Delaware, to hail the General's arrival. As soon as
he set foot on shore, he was welcomed with three huzzas, which made the shores
re-echo the cheerful sounds. After being saluted by the horse and infantry, he
was escorted to town, in the following order : A detachment of the horse — The
Light Infantry — His Excellency, on horseback, attended by Charles Thompson,
Esq., and Col. Humphreys — The troop of horse — The gentlemen of the town
and neighbourhood on horseback. t
When the procession arrived at the bridge south of the town, they were
presented with a scene to which no description can do justice.
As Trenton had been rendered twice memorable during the war, once by
the capture of the Hessians, and again by the repulse of the whole British army,
in their attempt to cross the bridge over the Assanpinck Creek, the evening be-
fore the battle of Princeton — a plan was formed by a number of ladies, and carried
into execution, solely under their direction, to testify to the General, by the cele-
bration of those eventful actions, the grateful sense they retained of the safety and
protection afforded by him to the daughters of New Jersey. For this purpose, a
triumphal arch was raised on the bridge, about 20 feet wide, supported by 13 col-
umns— the height of the arch to the center was equal to the width. Each column
was entwined with wreaths of evergreen. The arch, which extended about twelve
feet along the bridge, was covered with laurel, and decorated on the inside with
laurel, running vines, and a variety of evergreens. On the front of the arch the
following motto was inscribed in large gilt letters ; ' ' The Defender of the mothers
will also protect the daughters." The upper and lower edges of this inscription
were ornamented with wreaths of evergreen and artificial flowers of all kinds, made
by the ladies for the occasion, beautifully interspersed. On the center of the
arch, above the inscription, was a dome, or cupola, of artificial flowers and ever-
greens, encircling the dates of the glorious events which the whole was designed
to celebrate, inscribed in large gilt letters. The summit of the dome displayed a
large sunflower, which, always pointing to the sun, was designed to express this
sentiment, or motto — " To you alone" — as emblematic of the affections and hopes
of the PEOPLE being directed to him, in the united suffrage of the millions of
America.
A numerous train of ladies, leading their daughters, were assembled at the
arch, thus to thank their Defender and Protector. As the General passed under
the arch, he was addressed in the following SONATA, composed by Major Rich-
ard Howell, and set to music for the occasion, by a number of young ladies
dressed in white, decked with wreaths and chaplets of flowers, and holding in
their hands baskets filled with flowers :
WELCOME, mighty Chief ! once more,
Welcome to this grateful shore :
Now no mercenary foe
Aims again the fatal blow —
Aims at thee the fatal blow.

Virgins fair and Matrons grave,
Those thy conquering arms did save,
Build for thee triumphal bowers.
Strew, ye fair, his way with flowers —
Strew your Hero's way with flowers.
As they sung these lines, they strewed the flowers before the General.
When his Excellency came opposite the little female band, he honored the
ladies by stopping until the Sonata was finished. The scene was truly grand —
universal silence prevailed — nothing was to be heard but the sweet notes of the
songsters— and the mingled sentiments which crowded into the mind in the mo-
ments of solemn stillness during the song, bathed many cheeks with tears. The
General most politely thanked the ladies for their attention, and the procession
moved on to his lodgings.
A copy of the song taken from the lips of Mrs. Sarah Moore Hand is a
cherished relic of the old times.
Jonathan Ha^d^ born November 15, 1780, died April 2, 1834, was Captain
of the Independent Battalion in the War of 181 2 ; he was appointed County
Clerk of Cape May County, in 1831. He was the son of Jonathan Hand*, ist, who
served in the Colonial Assembly in 1769, 1771 to 1776, the grandson of Shamgar
Hand^ who with his brother acquired large property interests in Cape May
County in 1685, the great-grandson of Shamgar^ who removed from Southamp-
ton, Iv. I., to Cape May, where he was as early as 1699, the great-great-grand-
son of John Hand\ who came from Stanstete, Kent County, England, who was
in Southampton, I,. I., in 1644, and in 1648 helped to found Easthampton, and
his wife, Alice, the sister of Josiah Stanborough.

and warm personal friend of Henry Clay. He was three times elected to the Leg-
islature and, declining reelection, was appointed Prosecutor of the Pleas for Mid-
dlesex County on March 12, 1839, by Governor Pennington, and two years later
Attorney-General of New Jersey, by the same Governor. During the three years
in which he held this office, he acquitted himself with great credit in the midst of
unusually arduous and harassing circumstances. He was an active member of the
First Presbyterian Church of New Brunswick, N. J., was superintendent of the
Sabbath-school and ruling elder. He was unaffectedly religious, cordial, winning
and popular with all classes. He was the eldest son of Elias Molleson, a mer-
chant of New Brunswick, N. J., a ruling elder of the First Church, who was born
October 28, 1782, went to New Brunswick in 1798, married November 25, 1802,
Sally Plum, daughter of George Plum, and died Septembers, 1831. He was the

Jersey.

Knox, 2).©., LL.D.
Dr. James Hall Mason Knox, lyl^.D., was born in New York. His father was
Dr. John Knox, for more than forty years senior pastor of the Collegiate Reformed
226 GENEALOGY
Dutch Church, of New York, and his mother was the daughter of Dr. John M.
Mason, the eminent Presbyterian divine.
He was graduated from Columbia College at the age of 17, and after a
year's interval entered the theological seminary of the Dutch Reformed Church
at New Brunswick, N. J., and was at the completion of his course ordained to the
gospel ministry. Among other calls then received he accepted one from German
Valley Church, of Newton Presbytery.
He remained at German Valley five years, when he removed to Easton, in
response to a call from the Reformed Dutch Church of this city, Classis of New
Brunswick. He remained here two years and was then succeeded by Dr. C. H.
Edgar. His next church was the First Presbyterian, of Germantown, Pa., Second
Presbytery of Philadelphia, now Presbytery of Philadelphia North. There he
spent sixteen years. It was during his stay at Bristol the first Mrs. Knox died.
Dr. Knox afterward went to Bristol, Pa., leaving that charge at the end of
ten years to accept, in November, 1883, the presidency of the faculty of I^afayette
College, succeeding Dr. Cattell, whose work he successfully continued.
This office he filled until his resignation in 1890. He then spent two years
in Europe and soon after took up his residence in Baltimore. He became a trus-
tee of Lafayette College in 1863.
He filled many of&ces of trust in the Presbyterian Church, being known as
an able counselor. He was specially interested in the eflfort to care for aged
ministers, and personally superintended the starting of the Home at Perth Amboy
where so many ministers and their wives have been comfortably provided for.
For thirty-seven years an active trustee of Lafayette College, he rarely missed a
meeting. It was perhaps twenty years ago that he interested the philanthropist,
Daniel B. Eayerweather, in the college, this being accomplished through the kind
intervention of Dr. Hitchcock, the acting president of the Union Theological Sem-
inary. The beautiful structure standing between Martien and Powell Halls bears
his name as a slight tribute to Mr. Eayerweather' s generosity. The correspond-
ing building at the western end of the campus bears the name of Dr. Knox.
His own alma mater, Columbia College, recognized his worth in conferring
on him the degree of Doctor of Divinity in 1861, and that of Doctor of Laws in
1885. Dr. Knox left the college with more students than when he began his pres-
idency, and in a much better financial state.
When he resigned his position as the head of Lafayette College, the Board
of Trustees placed on record their high appreciation of him " as a Christian gen-
tleman and bore witness that he had labored diligently, faithfully and earnestly
to promote the best interests of the institution, and sincerely invoked the bless-
ings of Almighty God upon him, in whatever position he may hereafter be
placed."
Dr. Knox is well remembered for his impressive presence, his tall and
graceful form, and his genial address. He was a specially graceful writer.

On the occasion of his death, the following action was taken by the Cin-
cinnati Bar :
IN MEMORY OF ROBERT A. JOHNSTON.
At a meeting of the members of the Hamilton Gounty Bar, held December 31st, 1888,
the following report and resolutions were adopted :
The Cincinnati Bar meet to-day to mourn the decease of one of its most worthy and hon-
ored members, Judge Robert A. Johnston. In the full vigor of life his career of usefulness and
honor has ceased. His presence among us, his kindly greetings, will be known no more forever.
We, his brethren of the Bar, can bear testimony to his uniform courtesy, on and off the bench, his
kind and considerate bearing to both old and young of the Bar, his unpretending manner and
his adherence at all times, to what he considered the right. He has closed an honored life,
justly meriting and cordially receiving the approbation of his fellow men. He graduated at
Hanover College and at the Gincinnati Law School. He commenced the practice of law in
Cincinnati in 1857. In 1864 he formed a partnership in the practice of law with his brother,
John Johnston, and soon thereafter he volunteered in the hundred days service. Upon leaving
the army he returned to the practice of his profession with his brother. In 1876 he was elected
Judge of the Court of Common Pleas, which office he held two terms, or a period of ten years.
The duties of his office as Judge he discharged with ability and integrity, to the satisfaction of
the Bar and the community. By all he was regarded as a just, upright and impartial Judge.
In 1887, at the close of his judicial term, he returned to the practice of law, with his brother,
and was so engaged at the time of his death. Judge Johnston was happy in his married life.
His wife was a woman possessed of those gifts and graces that make a husband's home attrac-
tive and his family life a blessing and a joy — a woman of many acquirements and of rare men-
tal gifts. She was a stay and support to her husband, in whose affairs she took an active inter-
est, and she set for him the highest standard of honor and truth. To her wise counsel and lov-
ing heart he ever turned for guidance, aid and support. The members of the Bar knew his worth.
He was noble in his manhood. His associates respected and esteemed him — they loved him.
Resolved, That the Bar, sorrowing at its own great loss, tenders to the family of Judge
Johnston, its sympathy and condolence in their sad bereavement.
Resolved, That a copy of these proceedings, expressing the feelings of the Bar for their
deceased brother, be forwarded to his family and also spread upon the minutes of the Court of
Common Pleas.

GENEALOGY 24.1
Sbptember 30, 1786.
A number of members of the First Presbyterian Church, of the Township of Hopewell,
met at the Meeting House in Pennington and proceeded to elect Trustees for sd church, at which
time and place the following men were chosen, viz :
John Welling, Jr.,
John Smith, Esq.,
John P. Hunt,
Amos Moore,
Stephen Burrowes, Jr.,
Nathaniel Hart,
Hezekiah S. Woodruflf.
Oct. 4th the abovesd Trustees met at Mr. Henry Baker's, in s<J Township, at which time
and place they each took and subscribed the oaths directed by an Act of Legislature made and
provided for that purpose, and immediately proceeded to make choice of a President, when
John Welling, Jr. , was unanimously chosen to that ofl&ce. And at the same time drew a certifi-
cate to certify the name of the church, which is as follows, viz :
We, the Subscribers, being duly elected agreeably to a Law in that case made and pro-
vided, do assume the name of
The Trustees of the First Presbyterian Church of the Township of Hopewell, in the
county of Hunterdon, in the state of New Jersey.
Witness our hands and seals, this 4th day of October, 1786 :
John Welling, Jr.,
John Smith, Esq.,
Stephen Burrowes, Jr.,
Amos Moore,
John P. Hunt,
Nathaniel Hart,
Hezekiah S. Woodruff,
which certificate was recorded, October 5, A. D., 1786, in the Registry of Deeds, &c., for the
County of Hunterdon, page 135.
Four hundred acres of land were surveyed for Amos Moore, July i, 1784,
in Northampton County, Penna.*
Ann Smith' was the daughter of Jonathan Smith', and his wife, Hixon,
the granddaughter of Andrew Smith', a surveyor by profession. The namingf of
this township (Hopewell) probably originated from the naming of his early pur-
chase of land here, in date, so far as the records show, anterior to any other pur-
chase for occupation. On the 20th of May, 1688, Cornelius Empson, of Brandy-
wine Creek, sold to Andrew Smith two hundred acres, which tract the deed says:
He, the said Empson, "doth enfeoff and confirm unto the said Andrew Smith
heretofore laid forth in the county of Burlington aforesaid, and also settled upon,
and by him, the said Andrew Smith, called and to be called, Hopewell."

GENEALOGY 2^5
1083. Samuel Moore' (Capt. John*, Nathaniel', Capt. Samuel', Rev.
John') and Sarah Green' (Richard', Richa^d^ William').
was left an orphan at the age of
fourteen. In the stirring times
of 1775 and 1776 he took an active
part, and when the storm of war
came he was a "Minute Man."* Samuel Moore", son of the Revolutionary soldier,
has frequently told the compiler of this genealogy that his father had been called
out seventeen times, when acting in the capacity of a "Minute Man." It is not
known what the occasions were. L,iving as he did in the part of New Jersey
swept by the ravages of war, these years must have been exciting. Upon the
dissolution of the battalions of "Minute Men," Samuel Moore' joined Capt. John
Mott's Company, First Regiment of Hunterdon County Militia. In 1781 he
married his cousin, Sarah Green. One of the wedding presents on that occasion —
a pewter platter — was used and misused for many years in the family of Samuel
Moore^ the only son of this union. An old-fashioned iron platter with open-
work raised border is also still in existence. This was the property of Sarah
Green Moore. In 1782 they removed to the Forks of the Delaware.! He bought
land on the south side of Northampton Street, and built a stone house, a part of
which still stands. Easton as a residence could not have been very comfortable.
The first house built in Easton was that of David Martin, in 1739 ; in 1752 there
were only 11 families in the town, 40 persons; the Court House was finished in
1766; in 1763, there were 11 houses; in 1773, 69 houses; in 1782, when Samuel
Moore arrived, there were 85; as late as 1795 there were only 150 houses. The
Penns still held land in Easton in 1800, as may be seen by an examination of the
old deeds in the possession of the family. In 1783 a census showed that there
were 104 cows, 25 horses, about 200 sheep and perhaps 200 hogs.J The pigs
were allowed to run abroad and wallow in the mud in the pond, on what is now
North Third Street. The friends at Trenton spoke of the family as those who
had gone to "The New Country." The houses were mostly log and only one
story high; there was therefore naturally great surprise manifested when Samuel
Moore built his "New Mansion" on Northampton Street. In those early times
carpets were unknown and the floors were covered with clean white sand in which
various designs were worked with a stick. The first "rag carpet" was laid, in
Easton, in this old house, and it was the occasion of much delight and surprise to
the neighboring housewives who had never seen one. The samples of cut glass,
silverware and mahogany furniture which are prized as relics by their descendants
show that the style of living of our ancestors was not nearly so simple as we are
apt to imagine. In an old account book the following prices are noted in 1797 :
One clock case cost £11 5s, another, £■], another, ^5 5s. A bedstead was billed
at ^5 5s in 1795, a dining table at ^3, a chest of drawers at ^5 15s, a bureau at
;^5 5s and a coffin at £6. Samuel Moore was evidently a man of means. Besides
building the stone house, he bought the Easton Ferry, the most valuable piece of
property in this section. The Easton Ferry§ was established by David Martin,
in 1735. In 1755 it was owned by Nathaniel Vernon. In 1762 itwas the property

of Daniel Broadhead and Lewis Gordon. In 1782 it was run by Jacob Able. It
was worth 555 pounds. It was bought by Samuel Moore later.* It was run by
his widow after his death, in 1799; the ferryman was Robert Youells. At some
time it was the property of Moore & Green, as shown by charges in an old shop
blotter. He also owned the Ferry Hotel. He also did an extensive business in
building and cabinet-making and had many men on his pay-roll. Several pieces
of cabinet work, made in his shop, are still in the family, among them a small
walnut chest, on the back of the cover of an inner compartment of which is : " This
box was made in the year 1786," a small veneered box on the back of which is
the name W. S. Kelley, who was a grandchild, an old-fashioned bureau, etc.
Upon the opening up of the Genesee Country, Samuel Moore went there
to see what the prospects were. Upon his return he announced that he had pur-
chased land enough to make his whole family very wealthy. He walked up
Northampton Street, and in a few minutes was stricken with apoplexy, and died
at the southeast corner of Centre Square. This land was said to be at Painted
Post, N. Y., but after a thorough examination, no deed has been found. The
following was discovered in the old clock — "Sam's Clock" — f which illustrates
some of the land transactions of that day :
To all people to whom these presents shall come Peter Faulkner of the borough of
Easton in the county of Northampton and state of Pennsylvania, sendeth greeting. Know ye
that for and in consideration of the sum of four hundred and twenty six dollars and sixty seven

GENEALOGY 2^7
In an old book* in the possession of the compiler, the births of the different
children of Samuel Moore and Sarah Green are given; some of the names are
written by Samuel Moore himself and others by Rebecca who had received the
book as a present from her father; written in a childish hand is "Becca Moore
her book presented to her by her Father 1795;" she was twelve years old at that
time. Just above at the top of the page is written in another hand ' 'Samuel Moore
his book february 26 1783." This inscription has faded; just below in different
ink, by a different hand, is "his Book february 1783." On the first page of the
first fly-leaf are the following records : "Phebe Moore was born July the
7 1782." This was evidently written by the father and with the same ink he
used to write his own name, which is rapidly losing its blackness; "Rebekah
Moore was born September the 9 1783 ; Mary Moore was born 18 November
1784; Elizabeth Moore was born July 17th 1786; Ann Moore was born December
15th 1787; Martha Moore was born 1789 October 3." Turning over the page we
find the following additional records; " Samuel Moore was born September 28 1794;
Sarah Moore was born 14 of May 1793; Sarah Green Moore was born November
the 19 1797;" on the fly-leaf opposite the second title-page, which is "An Extract
from the Works of Mr. Baxter, A2 'Sammual Moore and Sarah green was mar'd
September the 27 1781.' " Opposite the next page, which contains the title The
Saints Everlasting Rest: A Treatise of the Blessed State of the Saints in Their
Enjoyment of God in Glory, A3, there is written in the same hand, which had
written the record of the marriage, "Samuel Moore departed this life March the
9 1799." The birth record is repeated in the back part of the book in a childish
hand; several of the children seem to have practiced writing on the fly-leaves, but
the book being the property of Becca or Rebekah in fee, her writing predominates.
On the last pages, the birth of Samuel is given as 1793 instead of 1794, which is a
mistake ; Here "Sara Moore was born June the 22 1797;" "Abigail Moore was
Born november 19 1798;" "Nancy Moore was born December 15 1787," the year
being underscored, no doubt to correct an error given on a previous page; this
last record is in a new hand, feminine. A comparison of the record of the
marriage and death of Samuel Moore with Sarah Moore's signature to a receipt
in Mary Porter's Receipt Book, July 27, 1818, shows that the record is in her
handwriting. Samuel Moore's signature in this book, which shows that he
wrote a good hand, much resembling his son's, agrees with the signature on the
title-page of A Shop Blotter, in the possession of the compiler. This blotter was
presented to the grandson by Mr. Benjamin F. Riegel, who was the administrator
of the Green estates. Further on, Rebeka is still practicing writing, with this
difference, that she now writes: "Miss Becca Moore: Rebekah Innes her friend, ' ' etc.
The entries in the blotter are made in various hands, but the prices are
filled in by another hand and a reference made to "book number 3." Some
of the charges are transferred from "book number one" into this. Doctor
Ivcdlie's begins in 1787, May 10. Most of the entries indicate that the workman
who entered them was German. John Worman is entered "John Vurman;" Pete
Voight is "Peatfote"; "vider Nunkester" for Widow Nungessor; "Roberd" for
Robert; "Tomtites" for Tom Titus; "a vinder fraim" for a window frame; "vite
led" for white lead; " puten in ten lites of glass" for putting in ten lights of
glass; "vife" for wife; "bois" for boys. There are entries from 1794 to 1799.

Some of the men who worked in the shop were John Innes, John Titus, Israel
Butler, David , John Striker.
Samuel Moore^ took an active part in the affairs of the town. His name
appears on the return of an election of Town Clerk, July 6, 1793. He was inter-
ested in educational matters and was prominent in the establishment of Easton
Union Academy. March 8, 1794, at a meeting of the inhabitants of Easton held
in the old Court House, a committee consisting of Rev. Charles Solomon
Frederick, the I,utheran minister. Rev. Christian I^udwig Becker of the Reformed
Church, Samuel Sitgreaves, Peter Shnyder, John Barnet, John Herster, John
Arndt, Samuel Moore, and Robert Traill were appointed to consider a plan for
building a schoolhouse. This action resulted in the birth of the Easton Union
Academy. He was a member of the first Board of Trustees. Messers. Sitgreaves,
Moore, Barnet, Shnyder, and Shouse were constituted a committee to estimate
the cost of a proper building for the institution. March 25, Messrs. Sitgreaves,
Moore, and Shouse were appointed to prepare and report a plan for the building
which they had estimated would cost ;^702 los. The building was soon after-
wards built, the first story finished, and later the Academy was established.
In 1794 he was drafted to take part in the " Whiskey Insurrection," but
was compelled to send a substitute on account of family matters which could not
be neglected.
In the Office of Register of Wills in the Court House at Easton is the
following record: Samuel Moore, John Green,* Administrator, Sureties, Robert
Traill, Benjamin Green: 600 pounds, March 23, 1799. There is no inventory and
no settlement. Samuel Moore having died without a will, the real estate was
divided by the Orphans Court in 1816. The division is recorded on a large
parchment 23x36 inches, a copy having been made for each heir. Several of these
parchments are still in the family. He was buried in the old Lutheran Church-
yard, corner of Fourth and Ferry Streets, Easton. The inscriptions on the box
tomb were:

Here Are Likewise Deposited the Remains of Sarah Moore Who
Departed This Life Jan. 15, 1829, in the 70TH Year of Her Age.

used as a foundation for the present monument.

subsequently became his wife. He came to Ewing Township, N. J., about 1700.
He bought 345 acres of Daniel Coxe, by deed dated 1712, and in 1717 built on it
the first brick house in the township. He was the first Assessor of Hunterdon
County and in 172 1 was Judge of the Court of Common Pleas. He was also a

the 5th instant, a small black horse, no white about him, about six years old — about fourteen
hands high, and is a remarkably smart trotter. The above reward will be given upon
delivering the horse and thief, if stolen, to the subscriber, or confining the thief in any gaol,
and ten dollars for the horse.
January 9, 1802 Sarah Moore
The family silver service, still in existence and in use, was also stolen but
returned on a "no questions asked" advertisement. The silver urn, tradition
says, belonged to George Taylor, signer of the Declaration of Independence, who
died in 1784, having been bought at sheriffs sale. An examination of the records
shows that a sale was made, but the purchaser is not given. The urn has a
monogram engraved upon it.
Sarah Green Moore was an invalid during the last seven years of her life.
She was confined to a chair with rheumatism. The reference in her will is to that
fact.
The last will and testament of Sarah Moore of the Borough of Easton in the County of
Northampton: I Sarah Moore considering the uncertainty of mortal life having suffered a long

was a Private in the First Battahon of Salem, also in the State Troops. He
became Captain in the Second Battalion, Salem, and afterward Second Major in the
Second Battalion, Salem*. He was also in the Continental Army. Major John*
and his wife, Elizabeth Casteau, had eleven children, among whom were Thomas',

Bartram Bonsall, and died in Washington, D. C, January 9, 1890. He was for
many years a man of commanding influence in the House of Representatives.
Capt. Israel Gregg, whose name is distinguished in our early steamboat
history, died at his residence in Hamilton, Butler County, Ohio. His western
steamboat career is coeval with that of the immortal Fulton, Livingston, Daniel
French, and Samuel Smith. The following is a sketch of the history of the first
boat commanded by Captain Gregg. It will be seen that his was the first steamer
that ever arrived at Pittsburgh from New Orleans, and that he had no small share
in the war proceedings of the Southern line, which closed with the battle of New
Orleans — the Marathon of America. The following, accurate in all its details, is
taken from a History of Western Steamers, published in 1818.
The Enterprise, 45 tons, was built at Brownsville, on the Monongahela, by
Daniel French, under his patent, and owned by a company at that place. She made
two voyages to lyouisville in the summer of 1814, under the command of Capt.
I. Gregg. On the ist of December she took in a cargo of ordnance stores at Pitts-
burgh, and sailed for New Orleans, commanded by Capt. H. M. Shreve, and
arrived at New Orleans on the 14th of the same month. She was then despatched
up the river in search of two keel boats, laden with small arms, which had been
delayed on the river. She got 12 miles above Natchez, where she met the keels,
took their masters and cargoes on board and returned to New Orleans, having
been but six and a half days absent, in which time she run 264 miles. She was
then for some time actively employed in transporting troops, &c. She made one
voyage to the Gulf of Mexico as a cartel, and one voyage to the Rapids of Red
River with troops, and nine voyages to Natchez. She set out for Pittsburgh on
the 6th of May, and arrived at Shippingport on the 30th, 25 days out, being the
first steamboat that ever arrived at that port from New Orleans. She then
proceeded on to Pittsburgh, and the command was given to D. Worley, who lost
her in Rock Harbor, at Shippingport.
Captain Gregg afterwards commanded the Despatch, a small boat of 25 tons,
built at Brownsville, which was wrecked near New Orleans in 18 19, and he
continued as a commander in the "river service" for several years after.
The Captain lived to behold a western wilderness, in its march onward and
onward, until it became a mighty empire, peopled with millions — to see the
enterprise in which he himself was the first to embark, spread itself to the world's
utmost commercial extent.
Captain Gregg resided in Butler County for several years, respected and
esteemed by all. He has at last been "gathered to his fathers," full of years and
full of honors. His character was ever that of an upright man, and his benevo-
lence proverbial. Of his long earthly pilgrimage— seventy and two years— if it
may be proper for humanity to judge — a good account will be rendered at the last
day.t

The following abstracts from letters of Rebecca Moore Kelley, of Cincin-
nati, Ohio, to her brother, Samuel Moore, Easton, Pennsylvania, may help to clear
up some genealogical difficulties:
September 28, 1847, M:r. Creveling arrived here from Easton, Pa. He in-
formed us of the death of Mr. Miller. She regrets to announce the death of our
brother-in-law, Israel Gregg, who brought the first steamboat from New Orleans
to Pittsburg. Frederick Churchill has paid his friends a visit and returned to
Mexico. Mary is well and sends her love to all.
October 29, 1849. Writes about the estate of Sir John Moore. As many
heirs here as east, our three sisters' children. Cousin Charles Moore, Cousin
Sarah Hunt and myself. Cousin Sarah Hunt thinks our grandfather and two old
uncles were the heirs who came to lyong Island. Grandfather's name, John, died
young. Has always recollected hearing that they came from England.
April I, 1855. Says her lawyer has written to her about Samuel Kelley's
Bounty land. Samuel K. kept a journal while in the service and made a will.
Uncle Thomas Kelley visited him at Newport, R. I.; spent nine days with him.
She gave him the journal; it was not quite finished but is thought to be worth
GENEALOGY 257
publishing. Uncle Thomas kept it until a short time before William's death. He
gave it to him to attend to and he would, if he had lived. Not certain whether
Samuel received anything after serving ten years; he had an honorable discharge.
She wants proof of her marriage. Uncle John Green and Uncle Benjamin Green
too old to ask, hence asks her brother.
October 15, 1863. Birthday was 9th of September which made her 80
years old. Wood $10 a cord, coal 75 cents a bushel. Received very affectionate
letter from William D. Kelley and sisters. He was here three years ago. Will
call on you the next time he comes to Easton. I sent your letter to the friends
at Hamilton. Mr. Skinner can give you the information.
May 9, 1864. Four years ago a daughter of William Kelley from the
South came on to visit her friends. She (Rebecca) went with her to Hamilton,
Ohio. William D. Kelley happened to meet her at her house. John Kelley, our
nearest relative in this city, has been very successful in business.
May 29, 1864. John Kelley is the son of William and Phoebe Kelley.
Have not heard from Thomas and sister Ann's family since before the war; there
were but two living, Sarah and Samuel. John was a fine man, studied law, was
admitted to Supreme Court, died of consumption in New Orleans, and left a wife
and two children; married a descendant of the Penn family. Charles, I,indsay
and Melvina Moore are all that are left. Charles is the farmer, lyindsay is in the
milling business. George Hunt's son-in-law, Mr. Hooker, called to see us last
week. Their children are all living except one daughter. Several of their sons
have been killed and wounded in the army. I wish you could see a daughter of
William Kelley from Jackson, Miss. She is a lovely girl. She spent seven
weeks in a cave in Vicksburg, with an Episcopal minister's family; had mule
steak served up for dinner as a rarity. The seat of war was on their plantation.
She is invited to spend some time with W. D. Kelley and sisters. Sister Ann
thought a great deal of her father as we all did.
June 21, 1865. Sister Phoebe was very intimate with the Dennisons.
January 7, 1867. Speaks of second epidemic of cholera. Sorry to hear of
death of cousin I,ydia Green. Mr. Levy is a Presbyterian Missionary. Haven't
heard from Philadelphia friends for some time.
February 7, 1867. Speaks of epidemic of cholera : many hundreds died.
June ID, 1867. William D. Kelley made us a short visit on his way South;

Philadblphia, July 2J, 1832.
DBAR Unclb :
It now becomes my painful duty to announce to you the death of our dear relation,
Samuel Kelley. He died on Tuesday morning, the loth instant, at seven o'clock precisely,
after an illness of ten days. His sickness was a severe case of bilious remitting fever. In
Samuel we have lost a most valuable friend and relation. In him the community has lost a
model worthy of being followed by any young man. He certainly was industrious, steady and
strictly honest, and I do not believe he has left an enemy in the world he has departed from—
most certain all who knew him were his friends.
His sun that rose in innocence
Rolled unclouded and set in Peace.

In consequence of Samuel's death, Aunt has been quite sick, but is now getting better.
The rest of the family is well. Grandmother is remarkably healthy. Uncle Thomas is still at
Miltonvile keeping store, and is doing very well. Mother is at present at Charles Moore's and
appears well pleased with her visits and the appearance of the country — is well and sends her
love to all her relations and friends. She spends most of her time at C. Moore's and Uncle
Gregg's. Mr. Moore regretted very much his not seeing you when he was here. His time was
much taken up and very short. He left his respects for you and hopes to see you at some future
time. He insisted upon mother's going back with him, finding we wanted to make a change.
Mother at last consented to go, providing she did not like the country, to comeback in the fall;
and if the contrary, to stay, and Hannah and myself would go in the fall. She appears to be so
well satisfied that I think she will stay, although she has not given me a decisive answer yet.
As soon as I receive the answer I will then be off on the first boat, which will be very soon.
Aunt Sarah is getting much better of the rheumatism and is able to sit up a little. Aunt Betsy
has a severe attack of the fever and ague. Hannah appears to be quite well, although not very
strong. All the rest are well and join in love to you. As for myself, I am as well and ugly as
ever. Give my respects to all relations and friends.
Remain your affectionate nephew,
Mr. Samubi, Moore. W. S. Kelley.
P. S. It is thought the cholera will pass Philadelphia as we have had no cases yet —
several cases reported were only our native cholera morbus. The people were so dissatisfied
about the cases that the Board of Health reported them cholera for the sake of satisf^nng the
people. You may rest assured that there has not been a single case of the Asiatic cholera in
Philadelphia yet. Yours, etc. ,

Rev. John') and Dr. Edmund Porter' (Edmund', William', ').
Dr. Edmund Porter* was born in Haddam, Connecticut, June 18, 1791, and
came to Pennsylvania in 1815.
His father died in 1802, January gth, and his mother, March 20th, of the
same year, of smallpox. Doubly orphaned at the age of 11 , his heart in after-
life felt the deepest sympathy for those who were subject to the same fate. In
speaking of the death of his parents, he says : " Oh ! the days of separation of
parents and child ! Can I ever forget the fatal 9th of January, 1802, when my
father breathed his last ? The black cofiSn, the emblems of sorrow, the mourn-
ers, the bier, and all the paraphernalia of grief ! No ! Then why should I forget
the 20th of March of the same year when, we were all laboring with the small-
pox, my mother died. I now beheld the victim of death and long-continued dis-
ease breathing her last. Children's feelings are indescribable ; youth is a mirror
in which their feelings are visible to all ; here can be seen the instincts of nature ;
here we see the last pang that severs the ties of blood and affection ; the sword
that cuts the cord and breaks the bowl of human happiness."
Jonathan Smith, of Haddam, Connecticut, he speaks of as his "Old Guar-
dian." His eccentricities, of which many stories are told, may be easily accounted
for when we remember that he grew up without the guiding and restraining
hand of loving parents. His whole life seemed to be penetrated by a vein of sad-
ness arising from his early bereavement.
Between the years 1791 and 18 15 he had had his preliminary education,
had studied medicine at home and in New York, and had been to the West Indies
and South America. In 1815 he returned to the United States, visited Boston,
New Haven, Salem and Springfield to see his friends, also Hartford and Haddam,
New York, Newton, N. J., Easton, Pa., and then Allen town, where he accepted a
Mary Moore Porter.

position as teacher for nine months at $100 a month. Here he was evidently in
straightened circumstances, for on his return to Salem from the West Indies he
had bills of exchange for $2,000 on Orn & Co. protested and lost all. It is prob-
able he took the method of teaching as a quick way to give him immediate assist-
ance. He then filled the vacancy left by Dr. Patton, of Hummelstown, Dauphin
County, and practiced medicine. But he was destined to move on again ; love
agitated his heart and he found Hummelstown too far away from Easton.
In one of his writings he says : "September 28, 1816, I was married to
Miss Mary Moore, a lady of Easton, Pa., where, like Dr. Franklin who tells the
story of his after- wife (Mrs. Reed), I became acquainted with her under circum-
stances more unfavorable than Franklin. He had two rolls of bread, I had none."
After this important event he probably returned to Hummelstown, closed
out his practice and concluded to settle in Easton, where we find him in 1817
practicing medicine and running a drug store at Ross's corner, the stand now oc-
cupied by Bush & Bull.
A paper of March 31, 1820, contains notice of the removal of his drug store
from Ross's corner to the stand three doors above the drug store of Dr. Wm. H.
Reynals & Co., formerly Dr. Fickhardt's, who had recently moved to Ohio ; this
store was nearly opposite the old Easton bank.
This business venture was a failure, the amount involved being compara-
tively small "when," as he puts it, "I commenced on a credit of five or six hun-
dred dollars, after doing nearly thirty thousand dollars in trade." But he was a
man of resources, and on June the loth of the same year he commenced the prac-
tice of medicine in Frenchtown, N. J., where he spent the rest of his life.
As he was preeminently a physician, the following consecutive history will
be of interest. It will also give the modern doctor some idea of how young men
acquired their medical education in those ' ' good old days. ' '
His preceptor was Thomas Miner, M.D., of Haddam, Connecticut. He
studied medicine in New York and obtained the following diploma from the
Medical Institution of the State of New York : Be it known that Mr. Edmund
Porter, of Connecticut, has attended the Course of Medical Instruction delivered
by us in the Institution during the session of eighteen hundred and thirteen, and
that his regular attention and general propriety of conduct have been satisfactory.
In testimony whereof the common Seal of the Institution is hereunto a£&xed.

Anat. Chirurg. &c.; Jn. Grinow, Prof. Chem. & Nat. Phil.; Archibald Bruce,
M.D., Prof. Mat. Med. & Mineralogy. On Record. New York, 23 February,
1813.
He also attended lectures under David Hosack, M.D., certificate dated
New York, September 8, 1814 ; Valentine Mott, M.D., certificate dated Univer-
sity of the State of New York, August 30, 1814 ; Thos. Cock, M.D., Surgeon
U. S. Hospital, Greenwich, August 26, 18 14.
Dr. Porter was licensed to practice as physician and surgeon by Mason F.
Coggswell, President of the Connecticut Medical Society, at Saybrook, Middlesex
County, April 25, 1813.
A license is extant in the Swedish language, issued by Dr. Jacob Lauren,
Surgeon to His Majesty the King of Sweden, in the Island of St. Bartholomews,
"West Indies, November 25, 18 14.
Among his papers were letters, highly commending him, from Dr. Samuel
Osborn, Dr. Samuel Akerly, Dr. William F. Piatt, Isaac Bellknap, President
26o GENEALOGY
Newburg Bank, D. Godwise, Esq. , Attorney-at-I<aw, Nicolas Grey, Inspector-
General, Third Military Division, Stephen Gorman, all of New York ; also letters
from H. N. Snow and Thomas Sanford, of the Island of St. Bartholomews, West
Indies.
He was a licentiate of the Connecticut Medical Society, his diploma being
dated April 25, 1813, and a member of the Medical Society of St. Bartholomews,
and of the Union Medical Society of Pennsylvania.
He was a voluminous writer on medical and other subjects. He wrote let-
ters to Dr. James Lakey, of Frenchtown, from St. Bartholomews, on the treat-
ment of yellow fever ; also from Alexandria (Frenchtown ?) on the treatment of
smallpox. His papers may be found in the New York Medical Repository , The
American Medical Recorder, The New England Journal of Medicine, The Trenton
True American, The Spirit of Pennsylvania, and The Easton Sentinel.
He left Easton June 10, 1820, and went to Frenchtown, N. J., where he
was very active in the formation of the District Medical Society for the County
of Hunterdon. The following minute is on record in the proceedings of the Med-
ical Society of New Jersey, May 3, 1821 :
' ' On application for authority to form a medical society in the county
of Hunterdon :
' ' Resolved, That and E. Porter be
authorized to meet at Flemington on the 2d Tuesday of June next at 10 o'clock
A.M., and there to organize a District Medical Society, according to the act of in-
corporation, and that the Recording Secretary furnish, when organized, the said
society with twenty-five copies of the by-laws of this society. ' '
Accordingly, ten of those authorized, met at Flemington, organized and
admitted new members, among whom was John Sloan, who afterward became a
successful and much-beloved physician in Easton.
Dr. Porter was secretary of the society. He built a house in Frenchtown
and deposited various papers, etc. , in the cornerstone, which were removed thirty
years afterward from motives of curiosity. In one of these papers he mentions
that intermittent fever made its appearance in Frenchtown after an absence of
twenty years ; this along the Delaware River ; in the interior, dysentery was
prevalent. Pulverized charcoal proved a useful adjuvant in the latter. The sea-
sons for five years had been remarkably dry ; 1823 was cold and inclement, frost
and ice being seen on the 5th and 6th of May. He also says : ' ' Intermitting and
remitting fevers are our only complaints of consequence."
But he was too active a man to confine himself to the practice of medicine
alone. A contemporary in the profession says of him: "He had a turn for
politics, and while at Frenchtown ran for Assemblyman at the Hunterdon County
caucus twice, the last time with success. He had naturally a good mind, pos-
sessed great social qualities and was a successful practitioner." He seemed to be
in demand as orator on great occasions, and the speeches which have come down
to us show that he was far in advance of the times.
On the 4th of July, 1821, he delivered an oration at Frenchtown, N. J.,
in answer to a volunteer toast, ' ' The inestimable right of taxing the colonies of
North America." He delivered an oration at the public house of Peter Skillman
on Washington's Birthday, 1822. This was an arraignment of the banking sys-
tem of the country and imprisonment for debt. Both were printed in full. He
GENEALOGY 261
was always found on the side of the oppressed, and was exceedingly liberal in his
views on all matters.
He v/as one of the men who saw the necessity of public education ; he was
chairman of a meeting convened at the house of Jonathan Britton, Frenchtown,
N. J., September 22, 1822, to consider the enactments for "free schools and to
call the attention of the I^egislature and public to the propriety of appropriating
the interest of the school funds to the employment of teachers in the district
schools and the education of poor children." The address to the citizens of New
Jersey is signed by Dr. Edmund Porter, Chairman ; the account is published in
the Trenton True American.
Besides all this, he is said to have stood high in the Masonic Fraternity.
When he died, at the age of 35 years, there were published many eulogies of his
life, character and talents.
The following is from an unknown newspaper :
At his residence in Frenchtown, Alexandria Township, Hunterdon County, on the 12th
instant, of a Malignant Bilious Fever, Dr. Edmund Porter, in the 36th year of his age. By the
death of Dr. Porter, a disconsolate and numerous family has been deprived of a kind and
indulgent husband and father, a widowed wife is left to weep, and tender orphans have
been made to mourn. A large circle of friends and acquaintances has experienced the loss of
a good neighbor, an interesting companion, and a valuable member of society. The public
will sadly realize the extent of the bereavement in the complete deprivation of the services of
an indefatigable, attentive and skillful physician, who was eminently useful in alleviating the
miseries of afflicted humanity, by a successful prosecution of the healing art; and the world of
letters will suffer in more than one of its departments by the death of him, whose pen
occasionally beamed new lustre on the light of science and imparted instruction on a variety
of subjects to the inquiring mind. Dr. Porter was an active member of the Medical Society of
Hunterdon County, and his talents and attainments challenged the respect of his professional
brethren; as a politician, he was bold, frank and candid; his principles were purely Republican,
and his essays as an author, written with ability on a variety of subjects of a public nature, have
been read with pleasure and profit by many. His death has made a breach in society which
will not soon be filled.
He was buried at Frenchtown, but his remains were removed to the
Easton Cemetery by his son Edmund.
The following was written in answer to an inquiry of the Hunterdon County
Medical Society for information in reference to Dr. Porter. The writer was 77
years old at the time the letter was written :
Easton, Pa., August 11, 1871.
Dr. Blane — Dear Sir : Agreeable to your request I have made diligent search for the
papers belonging to the late Dr. Edmund Porter, and have found but one, which contains some
principal important facts, which speak for themselves, in his own handwriting. I regret very
much the loss of his papers, as some of them were interesting and valuable — those of his
recipes, showing the practice of medicine at that time, his certificates from the societies, one
of which was in Spanish* (that of St. Bartholomews), and all on parchment, his paper
books, in which he noted down all his cases— the symptoms, disease, prescriptions, medicine
administered, quantity, doses and the effect produced from day to day and the result. All his
writings, published and unpublished, were written in books kept for that purpose. He was
very particular in noting the state of the weather, the changes and the effects upon his patients.
In all these matters he was very careful, the whole constituting a valuable diary of events. I
was not aware of the loss until I made a strict inquiry and found it was caused by the intoler-
able nuisance of house-cleaning semi-annually.
I forward you an excellent portrait of the doctor, which I found in the trunk of his
son Edmund, which you will please present to the Medical Society of Hunterdon County as a
gift from me, believing that they will prize it more highly than any others to whom I could
leave it. All of the Porter family are gone — all of my sisters and brothers-in-law. There are
none left who have any recollection of Dr. Porter. Please accept it as a gift to the medical
society from the last survivor.
I am, very respectfully, yours, etc.,
S. Moore.

After the death of her husband, Mrs. Porter returned to Easton, with her
three sons and remained here until her death in 1838. She died suddenly of
apoplexy while sitting in a chair. Her brother Samuel administered her estate.
In 1828 she settled up the accounts of her husband in Frenchtown as shown by
a receipt in an old receipt book. Her sons were educated at Dr. Vanderveer's
School at the north end of what is now Second Street.
Edmund became a printer and was engaged for many years on the
Pennsylvanian in Philadelphia. When Samuel D. Patterson became State
Printer, he removed to Harrisburg and was employed on State work. In 1862,
after making a visit to Camp Curtin, he was taken with confluent smallpox and
died at the Pennsylvania House, corner of Second and I^ocust Streets, Richard
Vaughn, proprietor. Mr. Vaughn announced to his guests at the breakfast table
that Mr. Porter was ill with smallpox, that he could not turn his old friend and
patron out and that he would not be offended if any one left. They all remained.
Mr. Porter died; the next morning early he was rolled in a blanket and buried in
a graveyard in Harrisburg. Samuel Moore, his uncle, settled his estate
Thomas Miner learned the drug business in Philadelphia. He opened a
drug store in Easton in the Cawley Building nearly opposite the Swan Hotel on
Northampton Street above Fourth. He died of consumption at the home of his
aunt, Mrs. HofE, on east Northampton Street, near the Delaware Bridge.
Eeonidas went to the West or Southwest and was never heard from. It
was supposed that he was killed by the Indians.
The family has become extinct. The end of the story is told by the follow-
ing inscription, which can be read on a tombstone in the Easton Cemetery near
the Seventh Street entrance :

Jane Stiles' (Nathaniel', 1652-1731, James', 1623-1692, m. Mary , died

An old-fashioned, well preserved, stone in the Easton Cemetery bears the
inscription :
"In Memory of Mr. Gervis Beckett, Who Departed This Life
December 23, 1806, Aged 83 Years."
He was born in the Parish of St. Abbott Mary, Kensington, England, in
1723, and at the age of 21 enlisted in the "Second Troop of Horse Guards,"
commanded for a time by Lord Amherst, and served as a "private gentleman"
for forty-four years. The duty of the "Horse Guards" was to attend his Majesty,
the King, on all official occasions, and they were responsible for his safety.
At the age of 75 Mr. Beckett accompanied his son-in-law, Edward Mott (who had
married his only daughter Sarah), to America, and at the beginning of this
century, took up his abode with them in Easton, where he died. The death
notice of the day reads : "Died — In this borough on the 23d ult. (Dec. 1806),
in the 83d year of his age, Garvis Beckett, father-in-law to Edward Mott. He
came to this country about six years ago to end his days in the affections of an
only son and daughter; of whom may be said, there has departed this transitory
life, for a better, a truly honest man." Whilst the grave of this patriotic
Englishman is almost unknown, descendants of his in the sixth and seventh
generations have for several years placed their floral tributes thereon, in remem-
brance of his devotion to his native country and the one he adopted at so advanced
an age. His son-in-law, Edward Mott, had likewise served in "His Majesty's
Second Troop of Life Guards" for seven years and five months, and was the same
Edward Mott on whom the townspeople of Easton gazed with awe in his gold-
framed spectacles — the first seen in the borough — and whose family has been
referred to in a communication from one of his connections. %

Samuel DeWees Patterson' was apprenticed to James Winnard, publisher
of the Norristown Register. He was of a studious turn of mind with strong
inclinations to composition and versification. Some verses of his appeared in the
New England Farmer (Boston, Mass.), in 1824 and in the Register. In 1828 he
became editor of the Register continuing until 1834. In 1833 he was Recorder of
Deeds of Montgomery County. From 1834 to 1837 he edited and published the
Penyisylvania Reporter and was appointed State Printer by Gov. Wolf. In 1837
President Van Buren appointed him United States Marshall for the Eastern District
of Pennsylvania, from which office he retired in 1841. In 1839 Gov. David D.
Porter appointed him Aide-de-Camp on his staff with rank of Colonel. From
1843 to 1848 he published the Saturday Evening Post (founded by Franklin, 1728),
then in its zenith of prosperity as a family newspaper. It had among its contribu-
tors Poe, Willis, Hawthorne, Longfellow, Cooper, Neal, G. P. R. James,
Bayard Taylor, Mrs. Osgood, Mrs. Stephens, Mrs. Sigourney and Mary Howitt.
Col. Patterson also frequently contributed to its columns. It was in the Post at
this time that Bayard Taylor first contributed an account of foreign travels
entitled "Views Afoot" and it was Col. Patterson's financial assistance which
enabled him to make his first trip abroad, pleasant acknowledgment of which was
made by Mr. Taylor in the first published volume of those letters (1846). In
1845, President Polk appointed him Naval Agent at Philadelphia which office
he held until 1848. About this time he was also associated with John W. Forney,
Mifflin Parry, Joseph Neal and A. Boyd Hamilton in the publication of the
Pen7tsylvanian, the predecessor of the Philadelphia Press. From 1848 to 1850 he
■pvLh\\sh.e.A. Graham' s Magazine, but with its decline suffered severe financial losses.
In 1 85 1, he removed to "Woodbourne" near Schuylkill Haven where he occupied a
position with the Silver Creek Coal Mining Company. In 1855, or 1856 he
removed to Evansburg where he served as Justice and contributed to the local
and city newspapers.
Col. Patterson, as a political writer, wielded a pen, quiet, forcible and
bold. His greatest accomplishments were in the field of literature, to which he
gave much of his time. He contributed to journals and magazines already
mentioned, and also to various "annuals" — The National Gleaner, Opal, Family
Messenger, Casket, The Gift, The Fountain, and to Godey's Ladies' National
Magazine, Episcopal Recorder, Pennsylvanian, Washington Union, etc.; of his
poetical writings, the lines "My Mother" (1839), "The Little Straw Hat" (1844),
"A Salt River Voyage" (1846), a political satire are among his best. Col.

Patterson was conspicuous for his scholarly attainments and refinement of
manner. He was a very handsome man. He was an intimate friend and corre-
spondent of President Buchanan, who frequently visited him and was godfather to
two of his children. He was a friend to many struggling for literary recognition,
sixty years ago, and was generous to a fault. He was a consistent Christian, a
member of the Protestant Episcopal Church of which he long served as vestry-
man. He was a Mason and an Odd Fellow and a member of the Hibernian
Society of Philadelphia.
Samuel DeWees Patterson' was the son of Samuel Patterson^ born Feb-
ruary 6, 1769, came to America in 1798, with his brother John, from Belfast,
Ireland, and settled near Norristown, Montgomery County, Pa. In 1807 he made
application for naturalization, in 1806 he became landlord of Jefferson Inn in
Norriton Township, 181 1 of an inn at Norristown, in 1812 was appointed County
Commissioner, and in 1814 was elected to that office. In 1812 he joined the
Pennsylvania volunteers in the war against Great Britain and died at Norristown
March 18, 1815. April 30, 1806, he was married to Mrs. Mary Weachter (widow)
(1764-1825), daughter of Cornelius DeWees and Margaret Richards, descendants
of old settlers of Germantown and the Welsh Tract of Chester County. He was

GENEALOG Y
Albert R. Foering' was the son of Christian Frederick,' born February lo,
1799, and Rachel Ross, born 1797, daughter of Captain Ross, of Southwark,
Philadelphia, the grandson of John Foering^ born about 1773, probably at New
York, where his father was pastor of a Reformed Dutch Church, from March 21,
1772, until August 1775, and Catharine Knorr, born 1774 at Philadelphia, the
great-grandson of Rev, ChristianFrederick', born about 1736 at Hanover, Germany,
who came to New York with his mother, about 1743 and married, November 4,
1769, Margaret Miller, Germantown, Pa. He removed to Millstone, N. J., as
indicated by the following :
In the fall of 1774, the consistory renewed their invitation to Mr. Foering,
and he accepted in the early part of October, 1774, and moved the following month.
He states in a letter that the low Dutch language was rapidly passing away in
Millstone, and that he was called to preach altogether in English. During the
first eighteen months of his ministry, which brings us down to the Declaration of
Independence, eighteen persons united with the church on profession of their
faith; during the next three years down to his death, not a single one. The
excitement, the party strife, and the frequent proximity of the armies seriously
interfered with the religious services.*
In the fall of 1778, after the battle of Freehold, Washington took up his
winter quarters again at Middlebrook. About this time, Mr. Foering preached
a very patriotic sermon, which led to the formation of a company from his con-
gregation. The British sent out a party to capture him, so as to prevent his
efforts among his people. But, although sick in bed at the time, by his wife's
help he started for a place of safety, probably to Washington's camp, and his
wife returned into the house to her three children, the oldest but eight years of
age. "In a very short time the enemy came up, and in their search for one,
whom they stigmatized as 'that rebel Foering,' thrust their swords through every
bed in the house." Mr. Foering leaving home sick and subjected to exposure in
his flight, took a heavy cold, from which consumption resulted, and March 29,
1779, the first pastor of this church breathed his last. His body was deposited
under the church in front of the sacred desk whence had issued the kindred
lessons of religion and liberty, and his dust yet reposes beneath the second edifice.
The congregation knew not where to look for another minister when a refugee
preacher, Solomon Froeligh, appeared in their midst in the spring of 1780, one
year after Mr. Foering's death. t
"It was on this month, or possibly on a similar one in December of the
same year, as the Army of liberty passed the parsonage (at Millstone), half
clothed, unshod, and in want of food, that the patriotic Foering, collecting all the
stores of his house, it being moreover, just after baking-time, and cutting the food
into convenient portions, distributed them, as far as they would go, to the weary
and hungry soldiers as they hurried on their way. On one of these occasions, as
the army passed, they encamped for the night in the field directly south of the
present parsonage, Washington himself sleeping in the northwest corner of the
present homestead of John Van Doren."J

Easton, September 30, 1815.
Dear Patty :
I write to you by the command of my Mistress to request that you will have the good-
ness to purchase for her two or three pieces of brown or half-bleached towelling, and have them
put up with your goods to be sent to Easton. She priced them, as we passed through the City
three weeks ago, at several shops, and was asked eleven pence a yard. I suppose you will
have no difficulty in finding some, but Susan recollects particularly that they saw it at a shop
of a Mrs. Warner in Third Street between Market and Chestnut. I enclose a twenty-dollar
bank note; and if it should not be enough will pay you the residue upon your rettim. But the
devil is in it, if twenty dollars worth of towelling at eleven pence a yard will not be enough for
the old Lady.
We have returned from our excursion, sound and in good condition, all the bumps and
jolts and lee-lurches over stones and in mud holes amongst the mountains and in the plains

notwithstanding. I expected a magnificent kiss from you on my return and am much
disappointed to be obliged to wait for it until you come home, when I think you might give
me two to pay me for the wear and tear of patience. Make my cordial salutations if you please
to your amiable cousin Sarah ; and tell her I am very much her admirer, and if I was a younger
man should aspire to be something more.
I have not seen since my return, and cannot therefore console you in the
lingering hours of absence by assuring you of his health and bloom and all that. Indeed we
have so great an interest in the impatience to see him which will doubtless bring you the
sooner back to Easton, that I should be malicious enough to preserve a profound silence about
him even were it in my power to administer the aforesaid consolation to you — for although
you love him, we love you and are content, since it must be so, to owe your speedy return to
any inducement, however little it may flatter ourselves. So come quickly. Dear Patty. I have
no doubt that he is prodigiously impatient to see and to embrace you, and to exchange with
you those tender vows and fascinating endearments which have so embellished the last ten or
a dozen years of your mutual affection; and which I suppose you are afraid will vanish as the
honey-moon wanes and are therefore determined that the sweet season of courtship shall be
perennial.
Adieu — I too love you dearly — and am, with equal devotion if not with equal ardour.
Dear Patty,
Your mo. ob. servt.
Miss Patty Moore. S. Sitgreaves.*
N. B. — The old I,ady says, I am mad, and that ten dollars will be enough to send you —
so ten dollars it is — Good Night Patty — go to bed soon — keep good hours and you will be sure
to dream of those you love best. Late hours are terrible murderers of pleasant dreams — and
when you shall have lived long enough to discover that dreams are always pleasanter than the
realities of this scurvy existence of ours you will think it good economy to make as much of
your dreams as you possibly can. So Good Night, Patty !

Moore departed this life at his residence on Spring Garden Street, below Second,
last Monday evening, surrounded by his family, who had gathered about his bed-
side tearfully awaiting his dissolution. Mr. Moore was the oldest native resident
of Easton, having been born on September 28, 1794, in the old stone houset still
standing on the south side of Northampton Street, near the Delaware bridge, § and
was a frequent looker-on when the builders were constructing that ancient struc-
ture, which now gives passenger communication across the Delaware. His father
was Samuel Moore, who moved here from Trenton, N. J., in 1782. At that time
nearly all the population of Easton was of German descent, and among the first
English settlers who followed were the Greens, Reeders and Howells. Born when
Washington was yet President, when Pennsylvania was largely a wilderness and
Easton was scarcely more than a village, Mr. Moore had lived to cast seventeen
Presidential votes, to see his native State increase from half a million to near four

over fifteen times its size. Easton then held but one church, now there are sev-
enteen. The Academy* on the hill on Second Street, which has given foundation
for education to so many thousands of pupils, was then just building. No bridges
crossed the Delaware or Lehigh, the post-ofi&ce had just been established, and the
first newspaper and printing ofiSce was making first strides towards a livelihood,
under Jacob Weygandt.
Mr. Moore received his education at a subscription school in Easton, and
later at a boarding school in Philadelphia, at Third and Market Streets. The
following letter to his sister Mary from the city at that time, now in the possession
of Capt Frederick Schober, of Philadelphia, will illustrate his advance at the age

A reading book is in the possession of his nephew, Augustus Kellogg
Moore, of New York. On the title-page is the name, Samuel Moore, 180-.
This was one of his school books : ' ' I^essons in Elocution or a Selection
of Pieces in Prose and Verse for the Improvement of Youth in Reading and
Speaking." By William Scott. The Seventh American Edition. To Which Are
Prefixed, Elements of Gesture, Illustrated by Four Elegant Copper-Plates ; and

Mr. Moore, in 1812, began business life as an apprentice to Thomas J.
Rogers, who published the Northampton Farmer, a small sheet, " in a one-story
boarded log house on Northampton Street, between Second and Third." George
Deshler bought out this establishment in 18 15, and took young Moore into a
partnership, which was maintained for two years. They issued the Spirit of
Pennsylvania. The following notice is taken from the Spirit of Pennsylvania,

Those persons who are yet indebted to the late firm of
Deshler & Moore
either for subscription or advertising are earnestly requested to make payment. It is necessary
that the affairs of the firm be speedily adjusted and settled. Those accounts, therefore, which

He early gained a degree of patriotism, and his blood frequently boiled
with the fire of youth in hearing of the deeds of valor of revolutionary times.
Thus it was that he became a ready volunteer when his country needed aid in the
War of 1812. When the news reached Easton that the British had taken Wash-
ington, he was in the crowd which formed a citizens' meeting at the corner of
Fourth and Northampton Streets, and was filled with a desire to take part in the
strife. Hence, when, on the next day, a crier called for volunteers to form a rifle
company, under Captain Abraham Horn, he filed into line behind the fife and

drum and began a soldier's life, serving as Second Sergeant. The company was
presented with a flag by Miss Beidelman, and then, on September 28, 1814, began
its march for Philadelphia. A tag attached to the flag bears the following record :
This flag was presented by Miss Rosanna Beidelman on behalf of the ladies of Easton,
to Capt. Abraham Horn's Company of Volunteer Riflemen, 1st Co. ist Regt. Colonel Hum-
phrey's in September 1814, immediately after the burning of Washington City with this address—
"Under this flag march to glory." The Ensign replied " I will mam," not " I he's the man,"
as stated in the " History of the Lehigh Valley." It was subsequently voted at a general meet-
ing of the members of the Company, called for the purpose, to deposit the flag in The Easton
Library in honor and remembrance of the patriotic donors. S. Moore.
The flag which is deposited in the Easton Library is ninety-seven inches
in length and fifty-five in breadth. The material throughout is heavy silk. The
stripes are sewed over and over. The stars are sewed one on each side, so that
both sides of the flag present the same appearance. The fly is indigo-blue in
color and has upon it thirteen eight-pointed stars, each seven inches across from
point to point. Twelve of the stars are arranged in a circle; the thirteenth is placed
in the centre. The circumference of the circle passing through the centres of the
stars has a diameter of forty inches. The stars are white. The union is made
of thirteen stripes of silk, alternately red and white. There are seven red and
six white stripes. The length of the stripes coincides with the length of the union.
The dimensions of the union are thirty-four by twenty-eight inches. The whole
is mounted upon a pole having a brass spear at its top.
The red has faded out almost entirely; the blue remains as when first
colored. The silk has become very rotten, and unless laid away in a safer place
will soon go to pieces.
The War of 18 12 was fought under the flag of fifteen stars and fifteen
stripes*.
The following letter was written from camp in 1814 :
Phii,adbi.phia, October 31st, 1814.
DEAR Sister :
My fears are at length verified — we are obliged to march to Camp Dupont on Wednes-
day morning next, which is said to be a healthy part of the country, well calculated and all
prepared for our reception — the distance from this place is five and thirty miles — three days
march. Heretofore, I placed but little confidence in the reports. In my last you will observe,
however, my opinion of the present; it was so different and published in a manner through the
camp that I could not forbear giving my real opinion, which has proved to be correct. I have
however to regret stating to you even the truth, as, no doubt, had I informed you we were to
march one month ago, we would have taken our jaunt to Bristol — this I for speaking truth.
Since my last we drummed a fellow out of the regiment for desertion— such was the
sentence of the court-martial. The manner it was done was as follows: the regiment was
formed in double files, the rear ranks moved back ten paces, the prisoner was brought up with
a file of men consisting of six, with sergeant Horn as commander of the guard, the rifles of the
guard crossed in front and rear. On passing between the files, we came to a charge and the "Rogue's
March," was beat by the music — through and in presence of at least one thousand men. Yester-
day we had a burying of one of the militia men who was left in the Hospital, at the time of
their marching from Camp. Our company was here again highly honored, with the prefer-
ence given them by the colonel. Twelve of our men were ordered to take the right, which
was done with the greatest of pleasure; on reviewing the corps we came to a "reverse arms"
marched vrith the dead march to the grave and deposited the corpse from whence it sprung and
fired eight rounds and returned to camp with a quick step; I volunteered on this occasion — no
sermon was preached.
Contrary to my wishes and expectations I have a^ain received my trunk, I had every-
thing necessary here for the campaign without it, and will be obliged to leave it with some
friend.
In yours, you stated something respecting Col. Horn, which be assured if taken from
my letter was a great mistake as this was not the person I alluded to, it was Colonel Humphrey
and not Horn that commanded the regiment at that time. Col. Horn has never had the com-
mand since his arrival, and its my opinion if he had things would go much more regular.
* The Pennsylvania Magazine of History, October 1895, J. "W. Moore.

Therefore if such rejjorts, that is any injury to the reputation of him, please rectify the mistake,
as nothing can be said in truth to the disgrace of the Lieutenant Colonel. This afternoon at
two o'clock we came to the City for our knives and Hatchets and also for our Powder Horns; if
we march, which there is now no doubt but that we shall, I shall write immediately after our
arrival at camp Dupont. If you come to the City let me know and I shall endeavor to get a
furlo; for the purpose of coming to the City and going to Bristol.
I have been again promoted, to 2d Sergeant, our company is all well. You must excuse
me with these few lines, as I have been filling up muster rolls and inspection rolls these three
days, so that it tires me to write — we expect to draw two months pay tomorrow, and we will
alio be inspected.
My compliments to (all well) Euphoemia, my friends and acquaintance; tell
Euphoemia her relations are all in perfect health and that I have not yet received any letter
from either her or Abigail or Abijah.
Your affectionate
Brother
S. Moore.
N. B. I shall write tomorrow to Sarah if possible.

His discharge is preserved in the War Department at Washington. The
following is a copy :

In 1815 the prominent young men of the town organized a social body
called "The Ugly Club." The requirements for admission were so made that
the pain of rejection was palliated by the report of the Committee on Nomina-
tions. A special committee was appointed to examine the applicant and if he
was not desired they reported "that he was not ugly enough." The Club was
organized December 15, 1815, and exercised great influence in the social life of
the town as is indicated by the correspondence in the newspaper by those who
were not invited to the Club's balls. At a meeting held January 8th, 1816, to
commemorate the battle of New Orleans, Samuel Moore proposed the toast ' 'The
Joints of a Nelson dislocated by the superior skill of a Decatur." His name
then disappears until December 15, 1820 when a member proposed the following
toast: — "Samuel Moore, one of our fraternity — Though separated from us by the
prairies of the West, the wilds of Nature have not severed our affections." He
was present again June 21, 1822 at which meeting it is "Resolved, That a
certificate of 'honorary membership' be given to Samuel Moore in consequence
of his leaving his place of Nativity, the Borough of Easton."
In 1 8 18 Mr. Moore and his sister Martha crossed the mountains of
Pennsylvania on horseback and settled in Cincinnati, then a small town, where
he remained four years. On his way to the West he wrote the following letter
to Dr. Edmund Porter. There is evidence in old copies of the Spirit of
Pennsylvania that he acted as I<egislative correspondent for that paper.
HarrisburG, January 25th, i8l8.
Dbar Sir :
Since my arrival in this place I have had an opportunity of visiting the senate and
house of Representatives, and have heard considerable debating, tho' not any lengjthy
speeches; to speak truth there are no speakers in the H. equal to Ross or Sitgreaves. Stewart,
Douglass and Kelley are the principal on our side, Leile, Slaymaker &c on the opposition, tho'
their influence does not extend beyond the bounds of party. Several important bills have
lately been brought forward; one to tax the U. S. Bank, excited considerable interest,
another to appropriate a specified sum (250,000$) for the erection of a state capital. This bill
276 GENEALOGY
was originally brought forward by Dr. Leile, but owing to some defects, was submitted to a
committee of one member from each county. A bill has also been reported for the erection of
a new state prison, which it is thought will supercede the building of the capital. I board
with Mr. Schock, at the same place with Leile, Lowry, Marks, Christie, French & Dyer —
divided in politics. We have been much amused here with the appearance of several
Chickasaw Indians in their natural uniform, Wm. Colbett, and Michal Leile, so that you may
suppose that our idle hours are not altogether lost. Findley is overrun with the numerous
ofBce holders and office hunters, which renders his situation by no means an enviable one.
Rotation is the cry, but little practised, so far as you will perceive by the appointments already
made. Colbett's business here is to obtain a law, or the passage of one, to relieve him of a
fine of 5000 dollars, for a libel on Dr. Ruth — it is supposed the money will have to be paid with
interest for about 15 years. Do please to request sister Sarah to forward my boots & shoes
(packed up) by the Lancaster mail to Lancaster — entered on the way bill & pay the costs to
L. so that I can send our coachee driver to the stage office at L. Excuse the shortness of this
epistle, but expect to hear from me again occasionally. Write soon. My compliments &c.
Past II — Good night.
Yours in haste
Saml Moore.
P. S. How comes on your Election for Congress — let us hear every tittle of the news
afloat. My candidate is here. I shall vote by proxy if F. J. R. is the candidate, he is quite a
worthy member.
Moore.
At Harrisburg he worked at the same case with Simon Cameron and later
watched with great interest the successful business and political career of General
Cameron. The journey took a month, and when they reached their destination
a great sorrow awaited them. The daughter of Ann Moore Kelley tells the story
in a letter to her Aunt Abigail, dated August ist, 1857 : "I recollect after we
had been out here some two or three years that Uncle Samuel and Aunt Martha
came out to see us, little dreaming of the sad blow that awaited them in the death
of a loved sister. They little thought that they would never meet again when
they parted in their native home. My father met them at the gate and they saw
his tears. They knew something was the matter. After he had told them of his
sad loss Aunt Martha fainted. They carried her into the house and put her on a
bed. Oh ! that was a fearful blow for us children but He who ' tempers the wind
to the shorn lamb ' took us under his kind care and we found many friends and
yet at the time we thought it hard to lose so devoted a parent. 'Tis true we had
our trials, but who has not? but God blessed us, and we made many friends and
kept them. Although we were blessed with plenty, and although we lived in
perfect harmony, having everything almost of this world's goods to make us con-
tented, still there was a void left in our midst which nothing could ever fill when
our mother, our best friend, good counsellor, and bright example of all the
virtues that adorn the female character, was taken from us and from all who loved
her to a better and a happier home. ' '
Upon his departure to the West the following action was taken by the guards :
At a meeting of the Guards on the 21st. Febr. i8i8 on motion Resolved that the thanks
of the Easton Guards be tendered (thro' the Seal) to the late Ensign Samuel Moore for his
soldierly and Gentlemanly conduct while holding said command and that he be admitted an
honorary member of the Corps.

On October 31, 1818, he bought of John Cummins and his wife, Alice, of
Batavia, Ohio, lot No. iii (S A Y) on the plot of the town of Batavia. The
indenture is witnessed by George Hunt and Thomas Kelley; the latter was a
brother-in-law. He then recrossed the mountains in the slow conveyances of
that time and spent several years in thirteen different states going as far south
as South Carolina, Georgia and Alabama. He then returned to Easton.
GENEALOGY 277
In 1824 he went with the Union guards to Philadelphia and took part in
the reception to General I,afayette, and while there shook hands with the distin-
guished Frenchman — an incident he well remembered and always referred to with
pride, being just thirty years of age on that day.
On March 5th, 1825, he and William Beckett Mott went to Savannah, in
company with a man by the name of Coe, to improve the working of the ochre
mines of Edward Mott, and to farm part of the tract of land to help pay expenses.
Mr. Mott remained but a short time and then returned to Philadelphia. The
venture failed, owing to want of means to get the ore to market. Coe cleaned
out the whole business and escaped to parts unknown, and Samuel Moore went to
Milledgeville.
Before 1832 he was connected with the Belvidere Apollo.
January 29, 1836, Governor Ritner appointed him Clerk of the Court of
General Quarter Sessions of the Peace, and Clerk of the Court of Oyer and Ter-
miner and Jail Delivery, for Northampton County. January 8, 1839, he was re-
appointed. At that time Judges John Banks, Daniel Wagner and John Cooper
were on the bench ; Rev. J. N. Brobst was recorder, Joseph Weaver, register,
Hiram Yard, sherifE and Andrew H. Reeder, treasurer.
In 1837 he was one of the founders of a Society, which did much good in
Easton, for many years. This copy of a letter in the possession of Augustus K.
Moore, New York, tells the story in his own words :
Easton, Feb. i, 1880.
Mv DEAR Son :
I am much obliged to you for the present of the box you sent, and in return, if you visit
us on the 22d. Feb. (my mother's birth day) I will return the compliment, by the gift of a
handsome gold headed cane, presented to me by "The Northampton Beneficial Society of the
Borough of Easton" of which I was one of the founders and was elected Secretary for thirty
eight years in succession ; which expended forty thousand dollars and over for weekly benefits
of f 3 pr. week in sickness of members and funeral expenses. Now, I desire you to take good
care of it, and hand it down to the oldest son of your family and his successors, to the end of
time, together with this letter. I am now in my eighty sixth year and cannot expect to remain
much longer altho' my general health is excellent but my legs are giving out and I am advised
by Dr. Green* to exercise them every day by taking a walk of two or three squares each day,
three times. I have found great relief from the prescription and will continue it as long as I
can walk. Anna is with us, Mr. Doty being out West hunting a place to settle. We are all
well. Yours &c.
S. Moore.
December 17, 1839, he entered into a partnership with Mott, Schober &
Co., Importers and Dealers in China, Glass and Queensware, of Philadelphia.
E. T. Mott was a nephew and Samuel Schober married a niece. The firm name
was S. Moore & Co. ; the business which was entirely wholesale was first located
on East Northampton Street. October i, 1851, the firm dissolved and the busi-
ness was carried on by S. Moore alone, being now both wholesale and retail. The
store and storehouse were on the lot extending from Northampton to Pine Street,
now occupied by Abie's Opera House. The firm of Mott & Schober continued
for many years, at length changing to Edward T. Mott, and unfortunately in
1857, was one of the first to go under in the frightful panic of that year, with lia-
bilities of over a quarter of a million dollars. Samuel Moore was on the Philadel-
phia firm's paper for a very large sum and the Easton business was closed out in
1857-
In 1845 he took a part in the temperance agitation and became a Son of
Temperance, February 27th.
* Dr. Traill Green, his cousin.
278 GENEALOGY
April 5, 1849, the agitation, started and continued by Dr. Traill Green, re-
sulted in the establishment of the Easton Cemetery Company. Samuel Moore
was a charter member.
At a meeting of the Town Council of the Borough of Easton held at their Hall the First
day of July A.D. 1853 Samuel Moore was duly elected a member of the said Town Council to
fill the vacancy occasioned by the death of Jefferson K. Heckman to serve until the next an-
nual meeting.
First day of July A.D. 1853. Ph. Johnson
Town Clerk.
The year 1855 was an eventful one for the Masonic Fraternity in Pennsyl-
vania. The great Temple on Chestnut Street was dedicated and Samuel Moore
took a part in the exercises. It was at this time that Edmund Porter, his
nephew, presented him with a silver-headed cane. Old Independence Hall in
Philadelphia had just passed through the hands of the "restorers" and a piece of
the wood of the original building was made into canes. The cane is a part of
the old wood. On the silver head is the following inscription : "Presented to
Samuel Moore by Edmund Porter, September 26th, 1855." On four panels on
the sides of the head are the words, one in each panel, "Virtue Liberty And
Independence." This cane which was highly prized by him, on account of its
many suggestions of his family, his Society, and the early history of his country,
was presented by him to his son James W. Moore'.
April 27, 1859 he was commissioned Justice of the Peace for Bushkill
Ward by Governor W. F. Parker, April 14, 1864 by Governor A. G. Curtin,
April 14, 1869 by Governor J. W. Geary, and April 14, 1874 by Governor J. F.
Hartranft. He held the office for twenty years, retiring in 1879 with the full con-
fidence of the entire community.
He was Chief Burgess of his native town for four years, during the
troublous period of the Civil War, and had the support of the best people in the
community.
He was a member of the Masonic Fraternity and of the order of Odd
Fellows. He was an earnest advocate and friend of the Public School System
and used his influence in its development.
Augustus K. Moore, of New York, has a copy of the Northampton Whig,
of Tuesday, December 4, 1832, containing the following notice ;
Married— At Asbury, on Tuesday last, by the Rev. Mr. Castner, Mr. Samuel Moore,
printer, of this place, to Miss Elizabeth Warmsley, of Mansfield tsp. Warren County, N. J.
His successes and the confidence imposed in him he has always attributed
to the good influences of this faithful. Christian woman, who, for over fifty years,
has been his constant companion, the sharer of his joys and sorrow, the great
help of his life. The Free Press readers will remember the interesting account
of their golden wedding, pubUshed some months ago in these columns. This
death is the first in the family for forty years, and it was the result of the gradual
giving away of the system. In his illness he was patient, submissive, meek. On
Friday last he lay down to sleep and so rested with scarcely a movement until
summoned into the presence of his Maker. He was liberal and progressive in
everything— in politics a Whig and later a Republican; he believed in the Father-
hood of God and knew that a father loves his children and is just. He claimed
individual freedom of interpretation of the Scriptures. His family, in America,
was founded in 1642 by an "Independent" minister, some of whose descendants
became prominent in the Episcopal Church, others in the Presbyterian, some Old
GENEALOGY 279
School, some New School. His mother had a pew in each of the three churches
in Easton, Presbyterian, IvUtheran and Episcopal. He joined no church until
late in life and then cast his lot with the Methodist Episcopal. His wife was the
daughter of a member of the Church of England, who became a Methodist, a
granddaughter of one of the founders of the First Methodist Episcopal Church in
Warren County, New Jersey, and the niece of a celebrated Methodist
preacher, known from New York to Virginia, the Rev. John Potts. These were
all Quakers originally, who later took an active part in the movement inaugurated
by John Wesley. He says "to this denomination am I indebted for the change
in my course of life. " He became a trustee of the Church and forwarded its
interests, caring nothing for the slurs cast upon him, for he himself had been
"violent in my (his) opposition to this sect."
In his home-life he was a model father. He used to tell us of the difference
between the latter days and the old ones ; how drinking was the habit of every one ;
how liquor was kept on the sideboard at which visitors were expected to partake ;
how a refusal was regarded as an insult ; how the stately men and women of those
days danced the minuet ; he would illustrate to his children, by going through
the dance, and to his grandchildren, even after he was over seventy-five. He was
filled with the history of the past and his children were familiar with the details
of the Revolution of 1812-1814 and the Mexican War. Later he was intensely
interested in the Civil War. The wars of Napoleon were familiar to us, for he
was conversant with them, being a contemporary. When he took us on his knee,
he thrilled our youthful hearts with the deeds of daring of our ancestors and
taught us a true patriotism which was not the gospel of selfishness but of altruism.
The old revolutionary songs from Yankee Doodle through a list, a long one, were
the hymns he sung to quiet us, leaving the religious ones to the sweeter and more
musical voice of our mother. The children grew up and never knew the time
when they learned history. On Sunday, the sweetest day in the whole week,
when the writer was just able to reach up and take his little finger, at a certain
time of day, we walked abroad ; the boy talked ; the father talked ; he pointed out
the glories of our scenery ; we breathed the pure air, and the week was too long
before the return of the next Sunday. A rainy day was a calamity which was
truly wept over.
During the childhood of the compiler a picture of George Washington and
a companion picture of Martha Washington were shown to him by his mother on
occasions of special goodness on his part. They were carefully wrapped in tissue
paper and kept in a locked bureau drawer. They were given to Augustus Kel-
logg Moore, "the eldest son of the eldest son," by Samuel Moore\ These pic-
tures were in the family for years. Mr. Bradley, a dealer in old engravings in
New York, gives the following description and comment.
George Washington, Esq. Bust, head to left, oval, in a rectangle. Mezzotints.
Height, ii^Vie inches. Width, lo inches. Wooley pinxit et sculpsit. Published at the
Shakespeare Gallery, No. ii Park, N. York. Extremely rare. A copy of the Stuart head.
Wooley engraved, in the same style, a portrait of Mrs. Washington as a companion print.
There are only three or four other copies in existence — one in Philadelphia,
perhaps three in Boston.
The following letters written to his nephew, Frederick Schober, recall the
stirring events of the Civil War.
28o GENEALOGY
Easton, Penna., September 28, 1864.
My Dear Nephew :
This being my birth day, I have concluded to devote a portion of it in writing to you.
I am this day " three score years and ten," the allotted age of man, having been born in the
troublous days of the whiskey insurrection of Pennsylvania, and may perhaps die in the great
rebellion. I sometimes think I have seen the best days of the republic. My father was born
and reared near Trenton, N. J., was brought up on a farm, but subsequently learned the car-
penter's trade. He belonged to a company of Minute Men in the Revolution, and was out fre-
quently at the call of his commanders. He married and settled in this place in 1783, and in
1794 was drafted, but provided a substitute, in consequence of my expected birth. In 1814 I
volunteered, and served a tour of three months in the War of 1812. Thus you see I am an old
soldier, the son of a soldier — but am sorry to say, that I have no representative in the army or
navy to battle for our Union — but, thank God, other branches of the family have supplied the
deficiency — and among them is my great-nephew, Frederick Schober, 3d Asst. Engineer. Now
Fred, you have position, look up, work your way forward, obey all orders whether right or
wrong in your estimation, be attentive and vigilant in the execution of your duties, and advance-
ment is sure to follow. It is an honorable position, a stepping stone, and it depends upon you
whether you go up or down.
But I was ordered to write about the war and our elections. First, then the War is
going on admirably and successfully. You have, doubtless, heard of the capture, by Admiral
Farragut, ' ' lashed to the mast-head, ' ' of the Forts at Mobile, and his entering the inner harbour.
General Sherman has captured Atlanta and General Sheridan has cleared Early out of the
Shenandoah Valley, after two successful battles, in which he captured some twenty six guns,
with caissons complete, and over six thousand prisoners, besides the killed and wounded. He
is still in pursuit towards Lynchburg ; Early's army is said to be completely demoralized, scat-
tered in every direction. We have the official accounts of the above battles ; they are true, and
great rejoicing has taken place over them. Grant still has a tight grip on Petersburg and Rich-
mond, and is being reinforced by thousands upon thousands, the draft being enforced in the
Copperhead Counties and districts, where they would do nothing for their country, whilst the
Republican districts have filled up their quotas by volunteering generally. Philadelphia is
nearly out, or will be in a day or two. My good old native town has a surplus for three years,
and the cities and towns generally have filled their quotas of the last call for five hundred
thousand men. The deficiency is in the country Democratic districts. By reference to the
map you will find the rebellion is now confined to a small space in comparison to what it was
at its commencement. By the capture of Lj'nchburg, Va., the last remaining railroad for sup-
plying the rebel army at Richmond will be cut off, and Richmond must fall, fall beyond all
doubt ; it is a mere matter of time to save life ; Grant could capture the place at any time, at
the sacrifice of thousands of lives, but will not do it. He will play Vicksburg over again. This
is an excellent trait in his character.
You will perhaps wonder who General Sheridan is. He was general of Cavalry and made
several successful raids to and around the rebel arm3', near Richmond. After the defeat of
General Wallace, the ill success of General Hunter and the dilatory movements of General
Couch, who each commanded a department, and were independent of each other, General
Grant came on from Richmond, and had the three consolidated, and placed Sheridan in full
command. This cured the clashing and resulted in brilliant victories to our armies. He, like
Grant and Sherman, is not like McClellan, who would gain a victory, squat down, and give the
enemy time to recuperate and strengthen themselves ; No ! they strike, gain, strike again,
pursue and strike, pursue, demoralize, or destroy their enemy. We have reports of Farragut's gun-
boats passing the bar, or obstructions in the harbour of Mobile, having the city at his command,
and that it had surrendered unconditionally, but this wants confirmation. I believe, however,
it will soon take place, if it has not already. The enemy by the accounts in their papers, frorn
the reports of officers and men taken prisoners, are very much depressed and say " that the re-
bellion is played out." I suppose that you have heard of the arrival of your prize, the Georgia,
in the United States. We thought you might probably be on board of her, but was not disap-
pointed at your not being on hand. It is the universal opinion that she will be condemned ; if
so why you, the "3d As" will come in for a share of the prize money ! Good for the Niagara,
hope you will catch every piratical rebel craft on the ocean, and divide the spoil, and every
good union " land lubber" would cry "good" and cheer you and fire big guns — [swivels are
our big guns]— whilst the " Copper heads" would declare it " un-con-sti-tu-tion-al"; an instru-
ment ninety nine out of every hundred never read.
As to the election, our men are confident of success in the State, and talk of gains in
Congress. They, the leaders, are working day and night. But you know this district is copper to
the back bone, and we do not think of a change, yet we have meetings and speeches every night
in the public Square, whilst the opposite party hold theirs at their head quarters. We keep in
view the Presidential election, where every vote will count. The soldiers in camp will now be
allowed to vote, of which, the great body will vote for Lincoln and Johnson. The Democrats
were opposed to their voting and cast their ballots against them, at the election held in August
for the purpose of deciding that question. We beat them by a large majority. A number of
the states have amended their Constitutions in a similar manner ; N. Jersey, I believe, is the
only State that repudiates its patriotic soldiery in this respect. This question'has strengthened
the Union Party greatly. The Democratic platform goes for " an immediate suspension of hos-
tilities," and nominated Gen. McClellan for President, who makes a platform for himself in his
letter of acceptance, and Pendleton of Ohio, for Vice President, who was a peace man 'of the
GENEALOGY 281
Vallandingham stripe, and voted in the last Congress against all and every measure for the sup-
port of the war for putting down the rebellion. This combination of oil and water raised a
beautiful quarrel in the ranks of the party, and several of the Peace party papers, came down
on the General like an avalanche for a time, but at length knocked under ! Not so with the
army, where McClellan possessed some popularity ; they declare that he is joined to their
enemies and the foes of the Union, and will not support him. I have given you this outline of
party affairs, which by the way, I am extremely sorry exists in our country at this time, a time
of rebellion and war — without knowing your sentiments, but presume you as an officer under
government will " stand by the flag," and further that you will, as I did when young, adopt,
stick to, and carry out the patriotic sentiments of the gallant Commodore Decatur, in the War
of 1812, [at which time parties were as bitter as they are now] which was — " Our Country —
right or wrong." That is our country [union if you please] first, last, under all circumstances,
and forever. There you have my sentiments in a nut shell — adopted in my youth from the im-
mortal Decatur. I care not who is President — I will support the government against all
enemies, in time of war whether foreign or domestic. As an old whig, and much as the party
were opposed to the war with Mexico, yet after the first battle the party in Congress and out
supported the administration — voting supplies for the army and navy with one exception, I
mean Tom Corwin, who was finally forced into the harness, and could and did rejoice at the
success of our arms — but it not so now. The falsely named democratic party make no public
demonstrations, no cheers, no rejoicing for our victories but oppose every measure for the sup-
port of government, the army or navy, and do all they can to cripple, if not destroy the efforts
of government to restore the Union ; but all their efforts will fail ; Grant is within four miles of
Richmond, now fighting, and we expect daily, yea, hourly to hear of its capture. Sheridan's
successes have been greater than we anticipated when I commenced this letter. We hear
October 3rd that his capture of Staunton terminated in a vast destruction of stores and material
of the enemy. Early's army is broken up and demoralized, some in the mountains, others
scattered, and deserters are coming in by hundreds, Sherman strengthening Atlanta, as a mili-
tary depot of supplies. The governor of Georgia, and Vice President Stephens, it is said, have
proposed to withdraw the State of Georgia from the Confederacy. The Governor [B ?] has
already withdrawn the militia, 15000 from Hood's command, and Jeff Davis has gone on to Macon
to see what's up ! These things look ominous, turn out as they may. Fremont has backed
down and supports Lincoln. Blair has been retired from the position of Postmaster General,
and Denison of Ohio succeeds him ; Blair supports Lincoln. There has been powerful strength
added to the Union Party lately, eminent men who have been life long Democrats, but their
patriotism has triumphed over party feeling — " Country first, party afterwards" is their motto ;
put down the rebellion ; we never will conquer it by divisions in the North say they.
I have now written, perhaps, a great deal too much, and will close by saying, there is
not the least doubt of Lincoln's reelection at this time, but it will depend in a great measure
upon the success of our arms. If Grant is successful it will give him a tremendous majority if
unsuccessful, it may be doubtful. The armies are strengthened by thousands daily, the last
draft of 500,000 is pouring in and filling up the ranks, nearly all volunteers or substitutes. I
suppose, Libby, James and your father will give you all the family news, and as it has devolved
on me to give you the political — you see I have pitched into it. Excuse errors, and
believe me to be
Your friend and affectionate old Uncle
S. Moore.
EasTon, January 9th, 1865.
My Dear Nephew :
It appears that the duty assigned to me by the governess of the family is to keep you
advised of the military and political events of our once peaceful and happy country ; but all my
arguments as to your obtaining the news by the papers, are of no avail ; the constant reply is
"Father you must write, he will be so glad to hear from you! " &c. , &c. Well then, as to
military operations ; we have been nearly everywhere successful. The army of the Potomac
still holds Richmond, with the largest army the Rebels have, under Lee, in check, whilst
General Sherman has passed thro' from Atlanta to Savannah, captured it, with an immense
amount of cotton [say 33,000 bales in store, and probably as much more within his lines],
cannon, military stores, &c., &c. Hardee's army escaped. It is expected that his next move
will be to Charleston ; if so it must fall, together with Augusta and Macon. The people of
Savannah received him with open arms, held a public meeting, the JIayor presiding and
" knocked under," unanimously. Hood has been defeated, pursued and his army nearly de-
stroyed at Nashville, Tenn., by General Thomas, and it is doubtful whether the Rebel
powers at Richmond can recuperate him. His losses are estimated at 20,000 men. Sheridan
remains in the Shenandoah Valley keeping a sharp look out, well prepared for any emergency.
The year 1864 has closed very favourably for our good old Union — "in the trial by battle " —
it being the third stage our country is passing through — first, the establishment of our inde-
pendence, second, sustaining it against foreign powers and lastly, against internal traitors, and
all not only by arms, but what is equally glorious, by the ballot box. But more of this here-
after.
The combined attack of Admiral Porter, with an immense fleet and General Butler
commanding the army, on Wilmington, N. C, has been a failure. Wilmington is a strong
place, and so situated that it was considered by outsiders almost impossible to take it, but on
this subject, you can obtain more information aboard ship than I can give you. The failure.
282 GENEALOGY
however, is said to be due to a want of co-operation between the commanders — but "thinks I to
myself — Wilmington will soon find "an army in the rear" as well as Charleston, z/ta Savannah.
The expedition under Gen. Banks to Texas was also a failure, from what cause has not
been made public. It is now undergoing an investigation before the Committee on the War in
Congress.
The capture of the in a neutral Brazilian port, has incited much newspaper
discussion as well at home as abroad. The London Times as usual blows the bellows for the
nobility of England, and the aristocratic rebel party of America. That pirate was run into and
sunk. The whole thing will amount to nothing. Simmes has according to rebel accounts
arrived at Mobile.
As to political matters, since the election, there is not one word said between the
parties, no excitement, the opponents of the "administration" knocked under like men, but
still insist on their being good Union Men ; but how to reconcile the matter I never could see.
It would be something like a ship's crew under our dear old flag at sea, far out, saying, we
love our country and flag but we will throw our commander and all the officers overboard, and
let her drift.
There is now no doubt of the Constitution of the United States being amended, so as to pro-
hibit slavery, put a duty on exports, and perhaps some other amendments, if not at the present,
the next session will be sure. There are now but eight members. Democrats of course, required to
make up the three fourths requirement, and one of them was to make a speech in favor of it
today. A measure of this kind would remove the danger for the future. The only remaining
danger I apprehend for the future, is "the corruption of the people;" forit seems to me that the
scramble for office, and money, money, money ! is so great, that it has been dangerous to our
Republican institutions; if not already, it will be. There are thousands totally mcompetent,
hankering for office constantly, who claim it, for their adherence to party only, ignoring their
duties to their country, their flag, and their God.
My dear nephew, you are a young man. You have made the first step for yourself up
the ladder [or rattlings you would call it, I suppose] of life, and as you reach upwards cling
to principle, study it, adhere to it, and do nothing in violation of your better judgment, that
you may regret in after years.
I expect that James and Libby advise you of all family matters. I shall therefore say
nothing about them. For myself, I am still at my post, administering justice, in good health,
but pretty far advanced in years, but, God willing, would like to live to see our country restored
to peace and harmony, our Union preserved, and our beloved flag respected wherever it floats.
I am very respectfully
Your aifectionate Uncle
S. Moore.
Easton, August 15, 1864.
Dear Nephew :
I am pressed into the service to say something about the war, and to give you my
opinion on the subject. Of course my opinion must be founded on reports either official or
supposed reliable. Now the facts are, that from all the information we have, the rebellion is
reduced to two armies, one at Richmond and Petersburg, the other at Atlanta, both of which
are closely watched. The defeat or capture of either is fatal to the enemy, for they have brought
their whole strength into the field, whilst ours is not yet fully developed. The last call of
500,000 men, which will produce all and more than the Government requires, has depressed
them very much. This information I had from General Heckman, who has lately been ex-
changed at Charleston, in a conversation with him yesterday. He is a native of Easton, a
gallant boy, was out in the Mexican War, commanded a Company of three months men at the
outbreak of the rebellion, was appointed Major of the 9th New Jersey, promoted for gallantry
to the command of the Regiment, and finally received a star as Brigadier General, was captured
in a fog at Bermuda Hundred, under Butler, sent to Libby, thence to Charleston, to be placed
under the fire of our guns, with other officers, and upon our Government following suit and
placing an equal number of Rebel Officers in the same position, an exchange was effected. He
further states that there is a strong Union feeling, and desire for our success, even in Charles-
ton, but it is necessarily suppressed, the government being a military despotism. They force
their meu into the service without pay, and levy on the property of the citizen whenever wanted
for public use without even receipting for it. Their men, at least many of them, have not been
paid for the last eighteen months. General Seymour, who was a Lieutenant at the bombard-
ment of Fort Sumpter, and stationed there for some time under Anderson, had an extensive
acquaintance at Charleston, and thro' him all the Officers obtained extensive private informa-
tion, which, with the facts we have a full knowledge of, induces the idea and belief that the re-
bellion is about played out, if no serious disaster should happen to Grant or Sherman's Armies
who are still successful. You will probably see the account of the Rebel raid into Pennsylvania
and the wanton destruction by fire of the beautiful town of Chambersburg. Two hundred and
fifty houses, the heart of the place was destroyed, and some fifteen hundred citizens left house-
less, without even a change of apparel, having nothing but what they had on. There's
Southern chivalry for you, Fred ! if you have a chance, blow them all to Hades. We are all
awaiting the news from Mobile. Farragut has such a knack of gutting the rebels out, that we
expect there will be nothing left of them by the time he gets thro' with them. The Richmond
papers acknowledge the loss of three out of four of their iron clads, one of which we captured
ready for use. By the way, if our army had been conducted with the same skill displayed by
GENEALOGY 283
our naval officers, the war would have been ended long since ; but discipline on siiore was a new
thing, and our men and officers had all to learn, like Frederick the Great, frota the enemy ;
and fight on, until they discovered they could beat them man for man, and outgeneral the best
of their able generals. I, however, have never been deceived in the rebellion. I was sure
there would be hard fighting; for both are Americans and " when Greek meets Greek, then
comes the tug of war" — and it has turned out so. I did not believe in putting an end to the
■war in ' ' thirty, " " sixty " or " ninety days ' ' — but believed religiously that it would put an end
to slavery on this continent forever — and further that the Almighty has raised up "Old Abe,"
from a rail splitter and Mississippi boatman to the Presidency for the purpose, just as he raised
up Moses to lead the children of Israel out of bondage in Egypt. And I further believe that
God has not raised up this nation, and blessed it with civil and religious liberty, made it an
asylum for the oppressed of all nations, placed it under His own control, without Prince or
Potentate, Emperor or Pope, to intervene between Him and us, will permit its destruction, by
division, but hold it one and indivisible, as a beacon light to the oppressed of all nations, in-
viting them to self government, and civil and religious liberty. Depend upon it our Union
will be restored, in His own good time ; there will not be a slave on the continent ; all men will
be free, and our country will be purified, restored, and strengthened — the greatest power under
the canopy of Heaven !
Yours &c

Elizabeth Barnes Wamsley^ was the daughter of James Wamsley^
and his wife Sarah Potts.
James Watnsley^ was born September 29, 1780, in County Fermanagh,
Ireland. He was a member of the Church of England, came to Philadelphia,
and later settled at Mansfield, Hunterdon County, N. J. He there joined the
Methodist Episcopal Church, and became a licensed exhorter. He was a man of
intellect. He died in 1863 or 1865. His father was financial agent of I^ord Cole
in Ireland.
Sarah Potts'' married James Wamsley^ in 18 10, when in her eighteenth
year. She was born May 23, 1792 at Kingwood, N. J., died May 26, 1883 at
Tobyhanna, Penna., and was buried at Washington, N. J. She was the daughter
of Joseph Potts* and his wife Sarah Mott. An old sampler which belonged to
Sarah Potts Wamsley, in the possession of the compiler, has initials S. M., E.
M., W. M., R. M., G. M., Iv. M. for Solomon Mott, Elizabeth Mott, William
Mott, Ruth Mott, Gershom Mott, Lucy Mott.
Joseph Potts* and his wife Sarah Mott were licensed* to marry June 2,
1 78 1. After their marriage they removed from Kingwood, N. J., to Brass Castle
in (now) Warren County, N. J. He was a farmer and owned a tannery. He
died in 1823; his will is dated February 21, 1820 and was proved July 11, 1823.!
He left eight children. He was the son of John Potts' and his wife Mercy King.
Joseph Potts and his family were among the founders of the Methodist Episcopal
Church of Washington, N. J., the first church in Warren County, 1824.
John Potts^ owned and lived on a farm at Kingwood, N. J. He was a
neighbor of Daniel Potts, a native of Bristol Township, Penna. In 1797, he went
on the refunding bond of Rebecca (Emley) Potts, widow of Daniel. His pocket-
book, still in existence, has worked on it in silk, "John Potts 1768." Thomas
Maxwell Potts, an authority on the genealogy of the numerous families of the
name Potts, thinks that he was the son of Thomas Potts^ Jr., and his wife
Susanna .
Thomas Potts\ Jr., of Bristol Township, Philadelphia County, was born
1713 and died 1751. He married, in 1732, Susanna , who after his death
married Job ComptonJ.

Thomas Potts\ Senr., the father of Thomas', Jr., was called "Thomas
Potts, Miller," " Thomas Potts, the Quaker Preacher. " He was in Pennsylvania
in 1686, married Jud/tA Smith in 1712, and died in 1719. His widow married Thomas
Sharp and died in 1749. Thomas was the only son. He was a resident of Bristol
Township, Philadelphia County. He seems to have come to Pennsylvania, from
Wales, it is supposed from I,langirrig or Llanidloes, in Montgomeryshire. He
was a miller by occupation, and was a party to numerous land conveyances,
owning lands and mills in Bristol Township and in New Jersey. In 9 mo. 11,
1686 he was witness to the marriage of John Austin and Jane Potts ; 10 mo. 5,
1692 he buys 150 acres on the west bank of the Schuylkill from John Blunstenalty ■
2 mo. 2, 1695 sells the same to David Hugh ; he built two water corn mills on a
branch of Frankford Creek not far from German town, known as " Potts' s Mills ;"
4 mo. 28, 1699 he bought 100 acres in Bristol Township of Jacob Shumaker ;
Sept. 6, 1705 he bought another tract from the same ; 29, 9ber, 1705 Herfert
Papen of Germantown conveys land to Thomas Potts, Sen. and others ; 1706 he
sells one fourth interest in Potts' s Mills, etc., to Everard Bolton ; other transac-
tions with George Gray ; Oct. 2, 1707 he conveys his interest to the others, in the
transaction of 29, gber 1705 ; 12 mo. 20, 1709 he and David Potts witnesses the
will of William Howell of Cheltenham Township; Oct. 8, 17 11 the same tract
conveyed to Thomas Potts, Sr., and others, trustees of Friends of Meeting House
lot: Dec. 26, 1717 bought 100 acres of William Dil worth ; Sept. 2, 1718 buys two
small tracts of Joshua Fincher ; he and wife Judith deed lot to Joshua Fincher.
He was a member of the Society of Friends and attached to the German-
town Preparative Meeting, which was under the care of the Abington Monthly
Meeting. From the minutes of Abington Monthly Meeting and other sources,
it appears that, from about 1705 to the end of his life, he devoted himself very
largely to the duties of a public Friend or religious minister, traveling and visiting
Friends in the service of Truth, in Maryland, Virginia, New England, the West
Indies, England, Ireland, and other places. He was undoubtedly a man of rare
worth and exemplary character. William Penn calls him "honest Thomas
Potts," and an estimate of his character may be gathered from the Penn and
Logan Correspondence*.
Sarah Motf, -f the wife of Joseph Potts*, was born in Kingwood, N. J., the
daughter of Solomon Mott* and his wife Elizabeth Emley.
* came from the Province of New York J
. and bought land in Kingwood, near
Quakertown, May 14, 1760, presumably
about the time of his marriage. He and Blizabetb Bmley were witnesses, at the
marriage of Benjamin Canby, 5, 10, 1752. § Solomon and Elizabeth Mott
witnessed the marriage of Samuel Large and Elizabeth Myers, November 18,
1762. Dr. Race has a receipt from Dr. Aaron Forman, reading, "May 11, 1771,
received of Mr. John Emley in behalf of Solomon Mott five pounds ten shillings
in full by me, April 7, 26, 1774." Dr. James Willson has charges in his day
book against Solomon "Moot." Dr. Race has a deed, dated January i, 1797,
from Rebecca Potts to Joseph King, for 209}^ acres, which she inherited from
her brother, John Emley, and which he had bought March i, 1791, of Solomon

County in 1693.** In 1688, Elias Doughty gave deeds of gift to sons Francis,
Charles, Elias, Jacob, Benjamin and William not of age. In the Census of
Flushing, 1698, "Sarah Doughty, sons Benjamin and William, servant Sarah and
Negros Okee and Mary" appear.
Rev. Francis Doughty^, the father of Elias Doughty^ is said to have been
a member of the family of Doughtys or Doutys, of Escher, in Surry, and Boston,
in Lincolnshire, England. ft He was the son of a brewer in Bristol, England, and
the brother-in-law of Governor Stone, of Maryland. J J Francis Doughty, sometime
Vicar of Sodbury, was silenced for non-conformity. §§ He settled at Cohassit, or
Taunton, Mass., in 1639, from which place and province he was driven by perse-
cution for saying that "Abraham's children should have been baptized." He
sought refuge with his wife and children in the Island of Aquetneck, now Rhode
Island, in Narragansett Bay. In 1641, he removed to Eong Island "in order to
enjoy freedom of conscience" under the Dutch. He was the predecessor of Rev.
John Moore at Hempstead. In March 28, 1642, Director- General Kieft issued
the following patent for 13,332 acres at Mespat, which embraced nearly the whole
of the town of Newtown.
The much disputed patent follows :

his Highness the Prince of Orange, as well as the Most Noble Lords, the Lords Directors of
the General Privileged West India Company; to all those who shall see these Letters, Make
Known, that We have given and granted, as by these presents We do give and grant, unto
Francis Doughty, and associates, their heirs and assigns, in real, actual, and perpetual posses-
sion, all and every that certain parcel of land situate on Long Island, in this province, with
the pastures and whatever else it includes, containing, in superfices, six thousand six hundred
and sixty-six Dutch acres, or thereabouts, comprehended within four right lines, each two
thousand Dutch perches long, the first whereof extends from the east angle of Hans Hanssen's
meadow, dividing, according to the creek, the marsh into two unequal parts, unto the planta-
tion of Richard Brutnall, and thence proceeds towards the north-east, passing through the
middle of the fresh marsh to the rivulet surrounding the lands of Henry the Farmer, and
following the same even to its mouth; the other line taking its origin from thence, bends
towards the south-east, according to the main bank, going along the same unto the other
creek, following the course of which from its mouth, until it attains the eastern extremity of
the said marsh (from whence the aforesaid creek arises), thence turns again towards the south-
east, until it has gained the length of two thousand Dutch perches; the third line taking its
rise from the end of the latter, tends towards the west, of an equal length with the others;
finally, the fourth running from the last-mentioned point towards the north-west, terminates
at the above-mentioned eastern angle of Hans Hanssen's meadow, at which angle a large stone
is erected for the greater certainty of the boundaries.
With power to establish in the aforesaid tract a town or towns; to erect a church or
churches; to exercise the Reformed Christian religion and Church discipline which they pro-
fess; also to administer of right, high, low, and middle jurisdiction, to decide civil suits, not
exceeding fifty Dutch florins; to impose definitively, and without appeal, in criminal matters,
fines to an equal amount; to pronounce the first sentence in other civil and criminal actions of
greater moment, and to execute the same, subject, however, to such execution being deferred,
should an appeal be made to the supreme court of New Netherland; Finally, to exercise all
rights belonging to the aforesaid jurisdiction, with power, moreover, to nominate some of
theirs, and to present them to the Director of New Netherland, that a sufficient number may
be chosen from them for political and juridical government; together with the right ol
hunting, fowling, fishing, and of trading, according to the immunities granted, and to be
granted, to the colonists of the province, without anj' exception :
Wherefore the aforesaid F. Doughty and his associates, their heirs and assigns, shall
be obligated, so long as they are in possession of the above-mentioned lands, to acknowledge
the aforesaid Lords for their sovereign Lords and Patroons; to pay, after the lapse often years,
the tenth part of the produce of the land, whether cultivated with the plough, hoe, or other-
wise; orchards and kitchen-gardens, not exceeding one Dutch acre, excepted; Finally, to use
no other standard than that of Holland; and so as to avoid confusion, to use Dutch weights, the
Dutch ell and all other Dutch measures. All which we promise, under the foregoing condi-
tions, inviolably to preserve, and bind our successors to the faithful observance of the same, by
virtue of the commission and supreme authority granted to us by the Most Mighty Prince of
Orange, Governor of the United Belgic Provinces. In testimony whereof we have subscribed
these presents with our own hand, and caused them to be countersigned by the Secretary of
New Netherland, and the seal of New Netherland to be afiixed thereto. Given at Fort
Amsterdam, on the Island Mannattans, in New Netherland, in the year 1642, the 28th of
March.

By order of the Director and Council.
Cornells Van Tienhoven, Secretary.*
In 1643, after less than a year of existence of the new settlement, it was de-
stroyed by the Indians in retaliation for the unjust attack made upon them by
Director Kieft. During this year Mr. Doughty ofl&ciated as pastor. The settlers
were driven to New Amsterdam where he continued his ministrations. He lost
all by this colonizing venture. After the return of peace he with others returned
to the desolate settlement where he remained for six months, after which he came
to New Amsterdam and remained for several years. He preached to the English
in the church within Fort Amsterdam. An unfortunate misunderstanding with
his fellow patentees resulted in a prolonged legal contest which in April 1647 was
decided against him. He appealed from the decision of Director Kieft who denied
the right, fined him ten dollars and imprisoned him for twenty-four hours. The
following are extracts from the ' 'Remonstrance of the Deputies from New Nether-
land, July 28, 1649. The administration of Director Kieft in particular." The
story is best told by the original documents, f

At this point we are met by one Franciscus Douthy, an English clergyman here, and
one Arnoldus van Hardenbergh, a free merchant, also of this place; but as this will probably
come before your High Mightinesses in full session, in the cases in which they appear, we shall
give merely a summary of them. This clergyman, Franciscus Douthy, came to New England
at the commencement of the troubles in England, in order to escape them, and found that he
had got out of the frying pan into the fire. He betook himself, in consequence, under the pro-
tection of the Netherlanders, in order that he may, according to the Dutch reformation, enjoy
freedom of conscience, which he unexpectedly missed in New England; and the Director
granted and conveyed to him an absolute patent, with manorial privileges. He added some
families now to his settlement, in the course of one year; but the war breaking out, they were
all driven off their lands, with the loss of some people, and the destruction of many cattle, of
almost all their houses, and whatever they had; they returned a while after that, and having
consumed more than they knew how to obtain, they came to the Manathans, whither all the
refugees at that time iJed, and Master Douthy was minister there. After the flame of war had
died away, and peace had been concluded, in such a manner, however, that no one had much
reliance on it, some returned again to their land. The Director would fain see this man go
back to his land, in order that every thing should have the appearance of being arranged, but
as peace was doubtful, and Master Douthy had no means to begin with, he was not in a hurry;
he went, however, sometime after, and resided there half a year, but he again removed, as it was
seized; for in the hope that some others would establish a village there, a suit was instituted
against the Minister, and carried so far, that the land was confiscated. Master Douthy finding
himself aggrieved, appealed from the judgment. The Director answered, there was no appeal
from his decision which must be final, and in consequence of his remark, sentenced the Minis-
ter to be imprisoned for the space of 24 hours, and then pay 25 guilders. We have always
considered this act tyrannical, and regarded it as an instance of sovereignty. Arnoldus van
Harden burgh's case resembles this very much in its result, for after Seger Theunisse had been
murdered by the Indians, at the Beeregat, and the yacht had returned to the Manathans, the
Director and Council appointed Arnoldus van Hardenburgh and two others, curators of the
estate, and the yacht was searched. And in it was found some property which had not been
entered, wherefore the Fiscal summoned the curators into court, and claimed that the property
was forfeited to the Company. The curators opposed it, and gave Hardenberch charge of the
suit, who after some proceedings, was cast. As he now found himself aggrieved as agent for
the general owners, he appealed to such judges as the owners would elect. Then the game was
repeated; it was a high crime; the Fiscal made great pretence and a judgment was pronounced,
the contents whereof were as follows : ' 'Having seen the written demand of Fiscal Van der Hoei-
kens of and against Arnoldus van Hardenburch, and that in relation to the appeal from our
judgment, dated 28th April last, as appears by the signature of the above named A. van Harden-
berch, from which judgment no appeal can lie, as the commission of their High Mightinesses
the Dords States General and his Highness of Orange, proves to him ; therefore the Director Gen-
eral and Council of New Netherland, regarding the dangerous consequences which tend to the
injury of the supreme authority of the magistracy of this country, condemn the aforesaid Arnoldus
van Hardenberch in the fine of 25 guilders, payable immediately, or to be imprisoned until the
fine be paid, as an example to others." If the lion be now known by his paw, it can be seen
that these people make nothing of the name of your High Mightinesses, His Highness of
Orange, the honor of the magistracy, and have used the words, dangerous consequences, an ex-
ample to others and more of the like description, in order to play off their own personages
therewith. We have, therefore, placed this act alongside of that perpetrated against the Min-
ister Douthy; and many more such pieces, or similar ones, are to be found in the record, if the
entries be not altered, which is gravely suspected, as alterations have been sometimes seen in
them. It is, then, suflicieutly apparent, that pretty much every thing has gone amiss, and
herewith shall we quit the subject, and pass on to Director Stuyvesant's administration, with a
word, however, first regarding the clause sinisterly introduced into the patents, as the sequel
will enable one easily to determine. For by the patents absolute conveyance was granted to
the people who then thought all was safe, and that they were masters of what they possessed.
The patents were next called in, on pretence that something had been forgotten in them; but it
was not so, only 'twas imagined that something had been surrendered in the grant, and there-
fore a clause was added to the patents, which were signed anew; this conflicts directly with the
patent, so that without distorting its tenor in the least, there is now a contradiction in one and
the same patent; for the old deeds read thus : ' 'And they enter on the land and valleys which
appertain thereunto of old." And the clause says. No valley to be used before the Company;
which can easily use all of it and have their competency. Another clause is usually inserted in
the patents, which is objected to by every one, to wit : That they must be subject to all
burthens which are already, or shall hereafter be imposed. That can be carried out ad in-
finitum, and it has already been enforced against divers inhabitants, and has discouraged others
from undertaking anything on such conditions.
In the beginning, also, when Director Kieft was still here, the English Clergyman re-
quested permission to depart to the Islands or to Netherland, as he had lived and labored a long
while without proper maintenance, and as his land was now confiscated ; but he always received
an unfavorable answer and was threatened with this and that. Finally, it came to pass that he
may depart on condition of promising under his hand that, wherever he should go, he would
not mention, nor complain of the manner he was treated here in New Netherland by Director
Kieft or Stuyvesant. This the man himself declares. Mr. Dinklagen and Commander Looper,
who were then members of the Council, also vouch for its truth. If the Directors can now jus-
292 GENEALOGY
tify it to their own consciences, 'tis a wonder what they will then do with such certificates; and
many other things of a similar character have occurred, but very secretly.
The unjust proceedings of the Directors against Francis Douthey, the Minister, who,
because he appealed from Kieft's unrighteous sentence, was put in prison, and obliged to pay a
fine of 25 guilders before he could be set at liberty.*
Francis Douthey, an English Clergyman, was subjected to an utterly unjust condition
before he was allowed to depart — never to mention how illegally he had been treated in New
Netherland ; and because he would not execute an obligation to that effect, he would not be
permitted to leave, t
Francis Douthey being indebted to the Company about eleven hundred guilders, peti-
tioned, in New Netherland, for permission to depart. The Director and Council are willing to
allow him to do so, but think they ought first of all be paid; his incapacity so to do, was the
reason why he was not allowed to depart, and it must be proved that the Director required from
him any obligation under his hand.J
To all the preceding accusations and the remonstrance from New Nether-
land, November 29, 1650, Secretary Van Teinhoven answers :
Francis Douthay, Adriaen van der Donck's father-in-law, and an English Minister, was
granted a colonic at Mespacht, not for himself alone as Patroon, but for him and his associates
whose Agent he was, and who at the time were residing at Rhode Island and at Cahanock and
other places. Mr. Smith was one of the leaders of these people, for said Minister had scarcely
any means of himself to build a hut, let alone to plant a colonie at his own expense. He was
merely to be employed as a clergyman by his associates who were to prepare a bouwerie for him
in that Colonie, in return for which he should discharge the duty of preacher among them, and
live on the proceeds of the bouwerie.
Coming to live at the Manhatans during the war, he was permitted to ofiiciate as Min-
ister for the English in and around that place, who were bound to maintain him without either
the Director or Company being liable to any charge therefor. And as the English did not
afford him a sufficient support, two collections were taken up among the Dutch and English, on
which he lived at the Manhatans.
The Mespacht Colonie was never confiscated ; that is proved by the actual residence on
it of the owners who had an interest in it as well as Douthey; but as the latter wished to ob-
struct its settlement and to permit no one to build in the colonie unless on pa5nng him a certain
sum down for each morgen of land, and a yearly sum in addition in the nature of ground rent,
and endeavored thus to convert it into a domain, against which those interested in the Colonie,
especially Mr. Smith, complained, the Director and Council finally concluded that the copart-
ners should enter on their property, and the bouwerie and lands in the possession of Douthay
be reserved to him, so that he hath suffered no injury or loss thereby. This I could prove, were
it not that the documents are in New Netherland and not here.
I have treated already of the appeal. No clauses conflicting with the Exemptions are
inserted in the patents; but the phrase — "noch te beramen" (hereafter to be imposed) can be
omitted from them, if found objectionable. §
Francis Douthey, the English minister, hath never been employed by the Company
wherefore it owes him nothing; but his English congregation is bound to pay him, as can be
proved in New Netherland. The Company has advanced to the said minister from time to time,
in goods and necessaries, to the amount of about fl, iioo, as the colonial account books might
show; this he has not yet paid, and he complains because he is unwilling to pay. I know not
whether the Director hath required a promise from Douthey.**
Rev. Francis then asked for permission to go to the West Indies or the
Netherlands, but the Director declined to give his consent. In this j^ear, 1647,
he accepted a call to Flushing, L. I., and thus became its first minister. Here
again, after a year or two, he fell into trouble for preaching against the govern-
ment, and Capt. John Underbill locked the door of the church against him. He
now made application to leave the country, and obtained permission only upon
condition of not mentioning the ill treatment he had received from Directors
Kieft and Stuyvesant. In 1648 or 1649, he departed for the English Virginias.
He became the Rector of Sittingbourne Parish, in Virginia. While ofiSciating
here he baptized, in 1659, the eldest son of John Washington, grandfather of

George Washington.* The following extract from the Journal of the Dutch Em-
bassy to Maryland, 1659, shows that he was in Maryland :
(1659) October "/j, Sunday. Accompanied Mr. Overzee to Secretary Calvert's to
dinner, where Mr. Doughty, the Minister accidentally called. After the cloth was removed,
talked about his charts or maps of the country, of which he laid on the table two that were en-
graved and one in manuscript. One was printed at Amsterdam, by direction of Captain Smith,
the first discoverer of the Great bay of Chesapeake, or Virginia ; the second appeared also to be
printed at Amsterdam, at the time of L,ord Balthamoor's patent ; we know not by whom or
where the manuscript one was drawn. All differed, one from the other. He wished to prove
from them the extent of Lord Balthamoor's boundaries, but we, on the contrary, showed and
maintained that if Chesapeake bay ran above, so crooked towards the northeast, they would
come so far within our line. To this, he asked how could that be, for the English first discov-
ered and possessed all these parts. Thereunto, we answered that the Dutch were three years
earlier in our parts than they in theirs. To which he replied, that they took their beginning
from Sir Walter Raleigh ; and we said we derive our origin from the King of Spain. But, he
retorted, you were not yet a free and independent nation. He was then told that the King of
Spain was, at the time of the discovery of America, our King, and we were as much his vassals
and subjects as they were the subjects of their King or Republic of England, but afterwards,
when we were obliged to take up arms, and achieved our liberty, the King of Spain conveyed
over, and to, us, in full propriety, by lawful right and title, all his own and other conquered
lands in Europe and America. To this, he said that the King of Spain was indeed, in the West
Indies, but not so far to the north, and that the English were the first discoverers. And we
again observed that the contrary could be proved from Spanish journals and chronicles, and
also that even the French had, in the year 1524, been before them in these parts. Lastly, being
half angry, he demanded whether the English had not been the first in Delaware bay, for it ob-
tained its name from them. And we answered, No ; that the Dutch had been the first in the

Stout. It has been impossible so far to determine which of the six
sons of Richard Stout was the father of Lucy; perhaps Richard, who married
Frances .

friendly Indian secreted her in a hollow tree where she remained three days. He
carried her to New York. She there met Richard Stout whom she married per-
haps between 1643 and 1645 and removed to New Jersey and settled Middle-
town. She lived to be over a hundred years old. ft

Martha Moore's religious life was of a deeply spiritual character. She
combined a poetic nature with a thoroughly practical example. The Creator and
religion were to her the foundation, corner-stone, and capstone of existence. In
all her Christian experience she was never heard to express a doubt or fear as to
the providences of God. When symptoms of an incurable malady were revealed
to her by the late Dr. Agnew, with the confidence and simplicity of a child she
set about arranging temporal matters for the end which was inevitably near.
There was no need for a spiritual preparation save in the closer communion with
the God whom for over forty years she had served. The strong light of a Chris-
tian life dispelled the shadows and illumined the weary hours when disease was
making its terrible inroads. Of a timid and shrinking nature, she developed,
when brought in contact with the world or when stern necessity called it forth, a
marvelous strength. Hers were not weary hands which were folded in the long
rest; only those who are left know the eager, tireless heart and mind which guided
husband and children over the rugged places, smoothed the sick pillow, or poured
upon aching hearts the balm of a deep sympathy. To her there was always a
bright side to every sorrow. Many remember her for the cheery smile which
beamed through what was to them impenetrable shadow which surrounded them
and encouraged them to take heart of grace. Her mind was a storehouse of
scriptural passages, but as the death angel hovered lower and 3'et lower over the
household, she repeated more frequently than all else Psalm cxxi, while her
favorite hymn, "How Firm a Foundation, Ye Saints of the Lord," passed her lips
again and again in triumphant expression. "How firm a foundation," tested in
the joyousness and through the tender, loving, care-burdened years of wifehood
and motherhood, then when the shadows of life commenced to lengthen she laid
aside all earthly ties without a murmur and stepped out into the eternity of God
with a halo of unutterable glory about her face. Who shall say what scenes were
revealed to her mortal vision as the Builder of the "firm foundation" called back
to heaven this saint of the Lord*.
Edward Townsend was born at Royal Oak, Maryland. He was a minister
of the Methodist Episcopal Church and had various charges in Pennsylvania,
Maryland and Delaware. He was a member of the Philadelphia Conference.

Rachel Phillips Flannery' was the daughter of Rev. James Flannery^ who
was born in Ireland, January 11, 1811, died July 11, 1870, at Coventryville,
Chester County, Pennsylvania, and Margarett Hubbert Macdonald, the grand-
daughter of Michael Flannery' and his wife Bridget O'Mara, who came from Tip-
perary County, Ireland, with their family in 1814. He settled at Wilmington, Del.
He was drowned in a sail boat. His children were Mary, James, William and
perhaps others. After his death his family was scattered. They were Roman
Catholics and James was intended for the priesthood.
In the summer of 1830, in the solitude of his chamber, he obtained the
grace of pardon. He immediately connected himself with St. John's M. E. Church
in the city of Philadelphia, where he then resided. Such was the Christian zeal,
and such the consistent piety exhibited by this young disciple of Jesus, that he soon
made a profound impression in the Church of his fellowship, and exerted a re-
formatory and saving influence over his old companions.
In the spring of 1835, he was licensed to preach, and was forthwith em-
ployed by the Presiding Elder of the North Philadelphia District. He was a con-
stant reader, an independent thinker, a man of general intelligence, and a most
excellent preacher, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing
the word of truth. His sermons were well studied and carefully prepared, abound-
ing with apt and forcible illustrations, and, being delivered in his earnest and
artless manner, were always interesting, instructive, and profitable.
Brother Flannery was a genial companion, an accomplished gentleman, a
firm and reliable friend, and possessed in a high degree the ornament of a meek
and quiet spirit. Who ever doubted the sincerity and piety of James Flannery?
Or who ever heard him make an invidious or disparaging remark of any of his
brethren ?
But it was in the home circle, among loved and cherished friends, and
where he was recognized as husband and father, that his numerous and various
excellences shone forth with the greatest luster. It was in the bosom of his own
dear family, and where he was best known, that he was most highly appreciated
and where his loss will be felt and mourned for years to come.
Brother Flannery was an effective member of the Philadelphia Annual
Conference for thirty-four consecutive years, during which period he occupied and
cultivated many interesting fields of labor. Such was his faithfulness as a pastor
GENEALOGY 301
such his success in leading inquirers to Christ, and such his sympathy and affec-
tion for the people committed to his care, that he was generally beloved and re-
vered, and his memory will be as ointment poured forth.
His general health was good during the whole of his ministerial life, so
that his sudden removal was the more sad and mysterious. On Sunday, the loth
day of July, he preached his last sermons from Romans viii, 38, 39, and Psalm
cxvi, 7. On the following Monday he was in his usual health, working in his
garden during the afternoon of the day; and in the evening with his excellent
wife, made some pastoral calls. They returned to the parsonage about 10 o'clock,
when he was unusually talkative and cheerful. He retired to rest, and about 1 1
o'clock gave some indications of indisposition, and in a few moments quietly
breathed his last. "He was not, for God took him." But he " was a good man,
and full of the Holy Ghost and faith," and with his compeers, Hagany, M'Clin-
tock, and Nadal, realized that sudden death was sudden glory;
His body with his charge laid down.
And ceased at once to work and live.
On the ensuing Friday a very large concourse of his people and friends
thronged the church at Coventryville to participate in the funeral obsequies,
sorrowing most of all that thej' should see his face no more on earth. An appro-
priate and impressive sermon was delivered by Rev. Dr. Castle, his Presiding
Elder, from Job xiv, 10, who was assisted in the services by Rev. S. W. Kurtz,
Rev. I. Dyson, and the writer. His remains were then conveyed to Pottstown
Cemetery for interment. His estimable and deeply afflicted family may rest assured
that they have the sympathies and prayers of the entire Church.*
James Flannery was ordained Deacon by Bishop Beverly Waugh at Wil-
mington, Del., April 8, 1838 and Elder April 5, 1840 at Philadelphia by the same
Bishop. In 1836 he was sent to Manayunk and Norristown; 1836-7, to Hadding-
ton; 1838-9, Orwigsburg and Hamburg; 1840-1, Stroudsburg; 1842-3, Pottstown
1844-5, Sanctuary, Philadelphia; 1846-7, Hatboro; Milford, Del.; Camden, Del.
Cecilton, Md. ; Newark, Del. ; Elkton, Md. ; Marcus Hook, Pa. ; Camden, Del.
Village Green, Pa.; Philadelphia; Agent of the Tract Society for three years
Phoenixville, Pa.; Coventryville. During the troublous times preceding and
during the Civil War, he was an ardent patriot defending the cause of the Govern-
ment at all times. On October i, 1864, at Philadelphia, he was naturalized in
order that he might cast his vote for President Lincoln.
Margarett Hubbert Macdonald^ born in Philadelphia, October 15, 1814,
married April 14, 1838, died January 24, 1899, in Philadelphia, buried in the
family plot at Pottstown, Pennsylvania, was the daughter of John Macdonald'
and his wife Elizabeth Hubbert. She was ten years old when Lafayette returned
to America and gives her recollections as follows :
' ' I remember seeing Lafayette at Sixth and Arch Streets in an open car-
riage— then later, in the State House yard. He stood there and the school chil-
dren passed before him in line. I remember hearing some one say, as I stood on
a platform that was on Arch Street where I saw him first, ' I wonder if he is a
spy.' I remember the arches on the streets where he was to pass, and I think
they were allowed to remain in the streets a long time. I think he stood up in
the carriage sometimes to respond to the greetings of the people. I am quite sure
I saw him on different days — once on the street and another day in the State
House yard. I think there must have been a trades display, for I remember the
time I saw him on the street there was a large house in the parade with a large
beef on the top of it, and this was allowed to stand in the yard of one of the
neighbors, and the children used to play in it. I cannot remember how long it
was between the times I saw him. ' '
It was our great privilege and pleasure to form her acquaintance in the
year 1850, and from that time the bonds of affectionate regard were strengthened.
She survived her husband for nearly thirty years, and leaves three daughters to

mourn her departure, all of whom were loving and true. Her unmarried daugh-
ter was her companion, and she never tired in her devotion to one who required
almost her constant care. Though very feeble and trembling under the weight of
years and bodily infirmities, she, accompanied by this daughter, found her way
with regularity to the Trinity Methodist Episcopal Church, of which both were
highly honored members. One of the most touching scenes on which our eyes ever
rested, was that of the many friends, who, after the benediction was pronounced,
gathered about this aged pilgrim, extending to her the sweetest courtesies and
congratulations. All were delighted in showing their reverence and love, for she
was one of the meekest and most attractive Christians we ever knew. Her
gentleness, patience and modesty won all hearts. She beautifully exemplified
the principles of our holy religion by a perfection of faith and practice which
made her a pattern of piety. ' ' Age sat with decent grace upon her visage and
worthy became her silver locks. She wore the marks of many years well spent,
of virtue, truth well tried, and wise experience." Rev. Dr. Martin, her pastor,
and the Rev. John Stringer, of Pottstown, officiated at the funeral. *
John Macdonald^ was born in Philadelphia, October 2, 1785, baptized by
Rev. Dr. John Ewing, October 22, 1785, of the First Presbyterian Church, Phila-
delphia, died March 13, 1855, in his 71st year, was the son of William Macdonald'
and his wife Elizabeth Shockoy. He was early left an orphan. His indenture in
1802 is an interesting document, showing the customs of the times. His mother
at this time was dead.

His granddaughter (Mrs. Flannery) says : I remember how my grand-
father used to stand before Washington's picture, and say with so much feeling
' ' God bless his memory, ' ' and how excited he would get in talking over the war.
He was a very large man, and light-complexioned. My grandmother was a
little woman who dressed in a short gown and petticoat, and wore a little sheer
cap that fastened under her chin with tabs. These caps had always to be clapped
dry to make them clear. My grandfather used to call my grandmother ' ' My
Peggy."

Riding of Yorkshire, England, who set sail from Liverpool, March 14, 17 19, ar-
rived at New York May 30th, and later took up his residence on a farm, a mile
northeast of Pennington, in Hopewell Township, New Jersey. In about two years
after his arrival he was chosen clerk of the Township, and probably about the
same time was appointed an elder of the Presbyterian Church. He attended the
sessions of the Synod of Philadelphia, in 1722, 1723, and 1725. His name is
found in the minutes of the mother Presbytery and occurs last in the Synodical
Records of 1737. In the conflict in the Presbyterian Church, which issued in the
schism of 1741, he, Thomas Burroughs, ancestor of Rev. George Burrowes, D.D.,
Edward Hart, father of John Hart, a signer of the Declaration of Independence,
1776, and Timothy Baker were prominent supporters of the " old side." The
erection of the first church building in Pennington is ascribed in large part to the

GENEALOG Y
In no one instance, perhaps, was Washington's influence with the army so strikingly
exemplified as in his attack on the enemy at Trenton. O'er and o'er have I listened with in-
tense anxiety, in the day of my boyhood, whilst my now departed sire, who fought and bled
on that proud field, recited with thrilling interest, all that related to the enterprise. "It was on
a December's night," would he say, "when our little heart-broken army halted on the banks of
the Delaware. That night was dark, cheerless, tempestuous, and bore a strong resemblance to
our country's fortune ! It seemed as if Heaven and earth had conspired for our destruction.
The clouds lowered — darkness and the storm came on apace. The snow and hail descended,
beating with unmitigated violence upon the supperless, half-clad, shivering soldiers ; and in the
roarings of the flood and the wailings of the storm was heard by fancy's ear the knell of our
hopes and the dirge of liberty ! The impetuous river was filled with floating ice. An attempt
to cross it, at that time, and under such circumstances, seemed a desperate enterprise, yet it
was undertaken and, thanks be to God and Washington, was accomplished.
" From where we landed on the Jersey shore, to Trenton, was about nine miles, and,
on the whole line of march, there was scarcely a word uttered, save by the officers, when giving
some order. 'We were well-nigh exhausted,' said he, ' many of us frost-bitten, and the majority
of us so badly shod that the blood gushed from our frozen and lacerated feet at every tread, yet
we upbraided not, complained not, but marched steadily and firmly, though mournfully, on-
ward, resolved to persevere to the uttermost, not for our country — our country, alas ! we had
given up for lost — not for ourselves — life, for us, no longer wore a charm — but because such was
the will of our beloved chief — 'twas for Washington alone, we were willing to make the sacrifice'.
When we arrived within sight of the enemy's encampment, we were ordered to form a line,
when Washington reviewed us. Pale and emaciated, dispirited and exhausted, we presented
a most unwarlike and melancholy aspect. The paternal eye of our chief was quick to discover
the extent of our sufferings, and acknowledge them with his tears, but, suddenly checking his
emotions, he reminded us that our country and all that we held dear was staked upon the
issue of the coming battle. As he spoke, we gathered ourselves up and rallied our energies ;
every man grasped his arms more firmly, and the clenched hand, and the compressed lip, and
steadfast look, and the knit brow, told the soul's resolve.
" Washington observed us well ; then did he exhort us, with all the fervor of his soul,
' On yonder field to conquer, or die the death of the brave.' At that instant, the glorious sun,
as if in prophetic token of our success, burst forth in all his splendor, bathing in liquid light the
blue hills of Jersey. The faces which, but a few moments before, were blanched with despair,
now glowed with martial fire and animation. Our chief, with exultation, hailed the scene ;
then casting his doubts to the winds, and calling on the 'God of battles' and his faithful
soldiers, led on the charge. The conflict was fierce and bloody. For more than twenty min-
utes, not a gun was fired ; the sabre and the bayonet did the work of destruction ; 'twas a hur-
ricane of fire, and steel, and death. 'There did we stand,' would he say 'there did we stand,
foot to foot and hilt to hilt, with the serried foe! and where we stood, we died or conquered.' "
The result of that action, gentlemen, is known to you all, as are also its bearings upon
the fortunes of America. Had defeat attended our arms at that trying crisis, our cause was lost,
forever lost, and freedom had found a grave on the plains of Trenton! But the wisdom and
prudence of Washington secured us the victory, and, consequently our liberty.
How great our obligation, then, and how much it behooves us, at this time, to show our
gratitude by erecting to his memory a monument that shall tell to after ages, not only that
Washington was great, but that we were grateful. I^et it no longer be delayed. To pause, is
to invite defeat ; to persevere, is to insure success.

2837. Mary ClarK** (Benjamin Green Clark', Maria Green^ m. Enoch Clark,
Benjamin Green^ Phebe Moore*, m. Richard Green, Nathaniel^ Capt. Samuel",
Rev. John') and Frank Thomson'^ (Alexander', Archibald^ Alexander').
Frank Thomson* was of Scotch descent. His great-grandfather, Alexan-
der Thomson, one of the first settlers in the Cumberland Valley, emigrated from
Greenock with his wife and twelve children in 1771, and settled on a farm near
Chambersburg, which he called Corkerhill, after the name of his ancestral
home. Frank Thomson's father, Alexander Thomson, represented his district in
Congress from 1824 to 1826, was President-Judge of the XVIth Judicial Dis-
trict of Pennsylvania for many years, and filled a professorship in the law school
connected with Marshall College.
Frank Thomson's classical education was received at the Chambersburg
Academy. He saw in the practical work of the railroad an attractive and promising
field of action, and when seventeen years old he entered the Altoona shops of the
Pennsylvania Railroad for instruction. A four years' course of training in this
great school of applied science made him a mechanical engineer who could build
a locomotive through every stage from the crude iron to the finished engine on
the rails, while it also fitted him to operate as engineman the product of his own
skill.
Colonel Scott had been appointed, by President Eincoln, Assistant Secretary
of War, and placed in charge of all matters relating to the transportation of troops
and supplies, and he called Frank Thomson to his aid as chief assistant. Mr.
Thomson took the field immediately, the scene of his operations being the South
and the upper Southwest, where he constructed railroads and bridges, repaired
those which had been damaged by the exigencies of war, and directed the trans-
portation of troops and the forwarding of supplies to the front. The signal
success of his efforts in this dangerous undertaking not only received fitting
recognition from the War Department, but marked him as a railroad man of rare
promise. At the conclusion of active hostilities in this territory he was relieved
from military duty, and in June, 1864, was appointed Superintendent of the East-
ern Division of the Philadelphia and Erie Railroad, which occupied his time until
March, 1873.
In March, 1873, he was made Superintendent of Motive Power of the
Pennsylvania Railroad, at Altoona. On July i, 1874, he relinquished this post

to become General Manager of the Pennsylvania Railroad system east of Pitts-
burg and Krie.
As General Manager he introduced a number of reforms in the management,
administration and maintenance of the road. The standard track and solid road-
bed owe their existence to his efforts, and the system of track inspection and the
award of prizes for the best sections of track were instituted by him. The adoption
of a superior standard of equipment, the building of picturesque stations and the
ornamentation of grounds, the use of the block-signal system and other safety
appliances, were all distinctive features of his management. He was also in-
strumental in developing that high grade of discipline for which the Pennsylvania
Railroad is noted.
On October i, 1882, Mr. Thomson became Second Vice-President, and on
October 27, 1888, was advanced to the post of First Vice-President.
On February 3, 1897, Mr. Thomson was elected President of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Company, to fill the vacancy caused by the death of George B.
Roberts. In this office he displayed the same energy and ability which had
always characterized him, introducing many improvements and keeping the road
at a high standard of ef&ciency.
Mr. Thomson's duties as the manager of a great railway required so much
of his time that he was never identified with many other public institutions. A
notable exception, however, is the Equitable lyife Assurance Society, of which
he was a director.
The social side of Mr. Thomson's life was quite as comprehensive as its
business counterpart. He was a patron of art, literature and music, and his
handsome home, at Corkerhill, near Merion Station, Philadelphia, is enriched with
many examples of artists in painting and sculpture whose works are as valuable
as they are rare. At this mansion, with the assistance of his daughter, Miss Anne
Thomson, he dispensed a quiet but notable hospitality, to which his wide acquaint-
ance, both in this country and abroad, contributed the presence of many men and
women eminent in the higher walks of life. His famous "cabin," located in his
grounds, uniquely decorated with the spoils of the chase, was often the scene of
quiet entertainment, while his finely appointed house was given over to the more
elaborate social functions.
Mr. Thomson was a lover of out-of-door sport. He was an ardent angler,
a hunter of much merit, and generally selected for his holidays the season when
he might indulge his taste for the fascination of the rod or gun. He was a mem-
ber of the Philadelphia Club, the Union Club of New York, and other prominent
clubs in both cities.

2962. Judge Benjamin Coe'^ (Abigail Woodward', m. Benjamin Coe,
Mary Moore', m. Nathaniel Woodward, Capt. Samuel', Rev. John') and Phebe
Horton (Rev. Simon; and Elizabeth Edsall (Philip, Esq.).
Judge Benjamin Coe''* participated in the early revolutionary movements on
Long Island. Without education, but possessed of excellent natural abilities, Mr.
Coe rose to political eminence, enjoyed the office of judge, and a seat in the State
Senate. He was, withal, a man of piety, and mighty in the Scriptures. At the age
of twenty -five he became a member, and soon after an elder of the Presbyterian
Church at Newtown, of which he continued through life a chief and most zealous
supporter. He died March 9, 1821, aged eighty years.
Phebe Hortonf was the daughter of Rev. Simon Horton, who came from
Boston to New Jersey in 1727, graduated at Princeton in 1731, settled in East
Jersey in 1735, and removed from thence to Newtown, L,. I., in 1746. Here he
labored assiduously, and with the respect and approbation of his people, for a pe-
riod of forty years, and died 1786, at the age of 76. It appears, by the records of
the Presbyterian Church in the United States, that in 1738, the Presbytery of
Long Island was united with that of East Jersey, and Mr. Horton, probably in
that way, became acquainted with the leading men of this congregation, which
opened the door for his settlement, at Newtown, at a subsequent period.

Hicks' (Thomas', John^ Robert')*.
Judge Isaac Hicks* was the son of Thomas', of Flushing, Long Island, and
Mary Washburn, the grandson of John', of Flushing, Long Island, where he was
granted a patent of land by Governor Kieft, October lo, 1645, ^ member of the
Hempstead convention that met February 28, 1665, and Herodeas Long, of Eng-
land, the great-grandson of Robert', who came from London to America in the
ship Fortune, which followed the Mayflower and landed at New Plymouth, Mass. ,
November 11, 1 621, bringing over parts of families left behind by those who
came in that famous vessel the year before. He was a leather-dresser from Bermon-
desey Street, Southwark, London. His father, James Hicks, married Phebe ,
was lineally descended from Ellis Hicks, who was knighted by Edward, the Black
Prince, on the battlefield of Poictiers, September 9, 1356, for bravery in capturing
a set of colors from the French. Margaret Winslow, the second wife of Robert
Hicks', with her children, came over in the ship Ann, which arrived at Plymouth
during the latter part of June, 1622. They settled at Duxbury, Mass., but two
of the sons, John and Stephen, came to Long Island about 1642.!

Daniel Coe' was the son of Samuel' and , the grandson of Capt.

wife and children, took ship at Ipswich, in Suffolk County, England, and came
to America in 1634. The family had been located in Suffolk County. He removed

There has been a difference of opinion among genealogists as to the loca-
tion of this son of Rev. John Moore. Riker placed him at Southampton, and the
preponderance of later evidence seems to confirm the truth of his statement. The
records of Southampton indicate that he was there as early as 1683, in which year
he is on the tax list for ;rf83. It appears that he owned the lot occupied by John
Moore, in 1641. He was baptized in New York, as shown by the records of the
Dutch Church :
" 1661, June II, John Moor, Predict Joseph, tot Middelb. in N. Nederi."?
He died about 1726, as is indicated by his will, which follows :
In the Name of God, Amen.

3051. Daniel Moore', Jr. (Daniel*, Joseph', Joseph', Rev. John^).
The records of Southampton give " Daniel Moor, Jr., earmark slope under
right ear, half penny upon same, slope on left ear, half penny under same, Jan-
uary 22, 1752." This shows that he was a resident of the town in 1752. In 1776
Daniel Moore* had sons, Henry, Joseph, Daniel, living in Bridgehampton. Henry
is on the records with 2 males, 3 females ; Joseph, 3 males, 4 females ; Daniel, 2
males, 3 females. Rev. Isaac Todd [3066] in his letters, in reference to the
genealogy of Daniel's family, does not mention Henry. He says : " David
(a slip of the pen for Daniel) went to Albany, or near there, and settled. He
had several children. One or more of these settled in Cherry Valley. One or two
of the sons of David (meaning Daniel) were Presbyterian clergymen. A Daniel
Mooret went to Albany and had twelve children ; one lived at Monticello, about
four miles from Cherry Valley ; two were Baptist ministers, Joseph and Lucas.
This Daniel Moore and wife Elsie had a daughter, Eunice Moore, born Jan-
uary 22, 1765, at Knowlton, Warren County, N. J., J who married, November 10,

James Madison Porter", Jr., A.M., graduated at Lafayette College in 1852,
was admitted to the bar in 1855, and was District Attorney 1869. He was the son
of Judge James Madison Porter', lyL.D., to whom more than to any one person
Lafayette College owes its origin ; he was born near Norristown, Pa., January 6,
1793. His early education was carefully conducted up to his preparation for the
Junior class, with the intention of entering the College of New Jersey, at Prince-
ton. This purpose, however, he abandoned, and read law in Reading, Pa., with
his brother, then President-Judge of the Third District, and was admitted to the
bar April 23, 1813. He first located in Philadelphia, remaining till 1818, after
which, until his death, he resided in Easton. In a few years he stood at the head
of the bar in legal and forensic ability, although still comparatively a young man.
In 1837-38 he was one of the foremost members of the convention for revising the
Constitution of Pennsylvania. He was President-Judge of the Twelfth Judicial
District from June, 1839, till July, 1840. Under President Tyler's administration,
he was for some time a member of his Cabinet as Secretary of War. In 1849, he
was elected a member of the State Legislature. In the spring of 1853, ^^ was
elected President-Judge of the Twenty-second District, but on account of ill health
he was obliged to resign early in 1855. From this time he pursued the practice
of law until his death, November 11, 1862. In 1843, te received from Marshall
College the degree of Doctor of Laws. He was for twenty-five years President of
the Board of Trustees of Lafayette College, and for many years, also. Professor of
Jurisprudence and Political Economy. His reputation as a man of great learning
and eminent legal ability drew many young men whose names appear in the cata-
logues of that period as students of law.
James Madison Porter', Jr., was the grandson of Colonel Andrew Porter',*
who served through the whole of the Revolution, and at its close was Colonel of
the Fourth or Pennsylvania Regiment of Artillery. He was engaged for several
years in scientific commissions connected with running the lines between New
York and Pennsylvania. In 1809, he was appointed Surveyor-General of Penn-
sylvania. His wife was Elizabeth Parker.

6. Elizabeth Moore' (Rev. John') and Content Titus' (Robert', Silius,
died 1637, married Constantia , died 1667).
Robert Titus, the immigrant, embarked from lyondon 3d April, 1635. The
passenger list, preserved in the public record office, London, contains the follow-
ing entry : " Theis under written names are to be transported to New England
imbarqued in ye Hopewell, Mr. Wm. Bundic. The parties have brought certifi-
cate from the Minister and Justices of the Peace that they are no Subsidy men,
they have taken the oath Alleg. and Supremacie. ' '
Here follow between twenty and thirty names, some from Essex, some from
Derbyshire, Herts and Cambridge. Among them are these names: Robert Titus,
Husbandman of St. Katherines, aged 35 ; Hannah Titus, Uxor, age 31; Jo Titus,
age 8; Edmond Titus, age 5.
After the arrival of Robert Titus and his family in Boston, in the summer
of 1635, land was granted to him in what is now the town of Brookline, near
Muddy River, adjoining Boston. Here they remained two or three years, when
they removed to Weymouth, about nine miles to the southeast. Their land is
described in the records of the town of Weymouth, and was located in the present
village of North Weymouth, not far from the place of the unfortunate settlement
made by Captain Weston, in September, 1622. In the spring of 1644 Robert
Titus, in company with about forty families, including the minister of Weymouth,
Rev. Samuel Newman, removed to the town of Rehobeth, just east of Providence,
Rhode Island. While at Rehobeth, he was often entrusted by the freeman with
offices of confidence. He was Commissioner from Rehobeth to the Court of Plym-
outh in the years 1648-9, and in 1650 and in 1654. He had some trouble with
the authorities because he harbored Abner Ordway and family, they being of
"evil fame." This probably signified that they were Quakers. In 1654, on the
" 23d of 3d month," Robert Titus sold his property at Rehobeth to Robert Jones,
of Nantasket, and removed to Long Island. Edmond, his second son, had been
in Hempstead since about 1650. John, the eldest, remained in Rehobeth, North
Purchase, now Attlebore. His other children went with him to Long Island.
His sons, Samuel, Abiel and Content were freeholders in Huntington, Long

of Somerset County, N. J., 1846, and at once began to practice at Neshanic ; he
was admitted to the Medical Society of Hunterdon County, May 6, 185 1, and was
elected Secretary the same day ; he moved to Flemington at that time and prac-
ticed there until October 28, 1851, when he resigned from the Society, was elected
an honorary member, and removed to Easton, Pa. Here he practiced till the
breaking out of the Civil War, when he entered the army as Surgeon of the First
Pennsylvania Volunteers. He afterwards became Staff Surgeon, and was in
charge of various large general hospitals at Nashville and elsewhere.* At the
close of the war he settled in Knoxville, Tenn., practicing his profession there
for fourteen years. He was appointed by Governor Brownlow a trustee of the
University of Tennessee, and was also a State Director of the Knoxville and Ohio
Railroad Company. In 1880 he returned to Easton, where he still lives and prac-
tices. Dr. lyudlow has always been much interested in the welfare of the horse,
and he found time some years ago to publish, under the name of " Science in the
Stable," a small work giving the results of a long series of experiments and ob-
servations on the hygiene of that animal.

law. He was admitted to the Philadelphia Bar in 188 1 and practiced in that
city until 1887, when considerations of health led him to Denver, where he took
up the study of medicine. After graduating and taking two years of clinical
work there, and special post-graduate study at Johns Hopkins and at the

[From the Register of West India Affairs, 16^8-1651, in the Royal Archives at the Hague.l

Heard the report of Messrs. van Aertsbergen and other their High Mightinesses
deputies engaged in the affairs of the West India Company; also read certain memorial
presented by the Delegates from the people of New Netherland, purporting in effect that they
have ready, agreeably to their High Mightinesses' order, one hundred of the two hundred
guns in question, with powder and lead in proportion; Requesting hereby that Jacob van
Kouwenhoven, Captain of the Burghery in Netherland, be authorized to distribute the afore-
said guns there at a reasonable price, with the knowledge of the Director, Council and Select
men, according as the government shall think proper. Whereupon deliberation being had, it
is resolved and concluded hereby to permit and allow the aforesaid Jacob van Couwenhoven to
distribute among the people in New Netherland, on the aforesaid conditions and modification,
the above mentioned hundred guns with their accoutrements and appendages, and the
petitioners shall be at liberty to send the remainder of the guns to New Netherland by another

The English of Gravesend among others, having, with the Director's consent, given the
Indians of Cannarse some stamped guns, in payment for their land, the latter came with them
on the 6'h ditto to Couwenhoven's house. Couwenhoven complained of it to the Fiscal, and to
Mr. Montague who, too, hath seen the guns; but without any result. 'Twas allowed to pass so.

THE MAGISTRATES OF GRAVESEND TO THE DIRECTORS AT
AMSTERDAM. §
Honorable Gentlemen :
Your honors' letter, dated the 21st March, 1651, was handed us by our honored and
revered Governor, agreeably to your Honors' commands, and we return you our humble and
thankful acknowledgment for your Honors' care not only of us, but also for the general wel-
fare and prosperity of the entire country, it being to us a very great encouragement that we
should receive your favorable inclination not only to hear but to redress the just grievances of
your subjects in this Province; also, that your Honors are pleased to maintain us in our
privileges; wherefore shall we, on all occurring occasions, apply and repair to you, as our
Lords and Patroons, for the improvement of whatever we consider out of order, or to obtain
any further just privileges.
We especially take to heart your Honors' wisdom and candor in postponing to answer
our previous letter until your Honors had fully examined and sifted the truth in regard to our

APPENDIX
actual government, being heartily rejoiced that you are satisfied therewith, and that you are
resolved to support and maintain its authority under your Honors. We clearly acknowledge
that the frequent changing a government, or the power of electing a Governor among our-
selves, which some among us, as we understand, aim at, would be our ruin and destruction by
reason of our factions and various opinions, inasmuch as many among us being unwilling to
subject themselves to any sort of government, mild or strong, it must, on that account, be
compulsory or by force, until the Governor's authority be well confirmed; for such persons will
not only despise, scorn or disobey authority, and by their evil example drag other persons
along, whereby the laws would be powerless, but every one would desire to do what would
please and gratify himself. In fine, the strongest would swallow up the weakest, and by
means of elections or choosing, we should be involved in like inconveniences. Moreover, we
are not supplied and provided with persons qualified and fit for such stations. Therefore, and
seeing that we have nothing to bring forward against our present Governor, but, on the con-
trary, truly, and in deed approving his public deportment in his administration, we request
that he be still continued over us, and that no change be made.
We presume that your Honors are informed, by our neighbors of Hemstede, of the
divers injuries and damages done them by the Indians, on various occasions, by slaughtering
their cattle, as well as those of private individuals at other places. Although we doubt not
your Honors have, by commands and otherwise, labored to prevent the importation, into this
place, of muskets, powder and lead to be sold to the Indians; yet, whether by connivance or
winking, or neglect of the oflicers appointed to that duty carefully to examine or inspect, or in
consequence of the activity and cunning of the inhabitants, the fact is, so great a quantity of
every sort were imported and sold to the Indians that the latter have thereby become obstinate
and daring enemies, highly dangerous to our lives and properties, and diiBcult to tolerate ;
that we must daily suffer such injuries and losses from the Indians for which we have received
no satisfaction, so that it is to be feared great dangers will arise herefrom to the ruin of your
Honors' Province, unless seasonable remedies be applied thereto.
We are very sensible of your Honors' great care for the welfare of the entire country,
inasmuch as you have appointed a detachment of soldiers for us, and have, also, heard our
petition and allowed us to receive a good quantity of ammunition for our necessary defence
wherefore we heartily thank you; requesting your Honors, at the same time, to continue the
same annually on condition of our paying our Governor therefor. The reinforcement of
soldiers has, however, been very small; and although we have had, this year, many ships here
from Holland, yet that has been of little avail to the strengthening of these parts, on which
subject we have taken the humble liberty to submit to your Honors these two questions or
propositions. In case they are obtained or carried out, they will avail, considerably, to the
strengthening of this country and the general revenue of the Tenths, to your Honors' profit.
First. Our Governor, considering, with the advice and approbation of others who will
agree with him thereupon, the imposition of the traders and the little strength added by some
of their shipping to the security and increase of this Province, inasmuch as they, for the most
part, are traders and factors, who do not add to the public prosperity, but come and go solely
for their individual profit and advantage, we have bethought ourselves of chartering some
ships in Holland for the behoof of this country, to bring over whatever we stand in need of,
vizt, passengers and servant men, which we mostly lack, as we are too much fatigued by work;
provided your Honors will consent and permit these ships, and none other, to trade here. In
case your Honors will be pleased to consent, for a certain time, and the Agents, who shall be
employed therein, have the liberty to hire or engage servant men who, also, shall be distributed
according to the good will and pleasure of the Governor and Council, the masters paying 50
per cent, for the expenses of their passage and other outfits, besides yearly wages agreed to
with the servant man in Holland, this country will be able to absorb, yearly, five @ six hundred,
whereby it will be greatly strengthened and your revenue increased.
Secondly. We most humbly request your Honors to expend, in Negroes or Blacks,
whatever means you, in your wisdom, will deem prudent; for your Honors can best do that,
in consequence of your interest in this place, on condition of our paying you for the same
whatever price you will order. We humbly conceive that your Honors will, thereby, have
double profits; first, from what we shall pay for those Negroes; secondly from the Tenths.
Gentlemen. 'Tis not with us as in our Fatherland, or as in Kingdoms and Republics
which are established and settled by long and well experienced laws and fundamentals, best
agreeing with the condition of the people. But in our little body, made up of divers members,
namely, folks of different nations, many things occur in the laying of a foundation for which
there are no rules nor examples, and, therefore, must be fixed at the discretion of a well
experienced Governor; for we are as a young tree or little sprout now, for the first time, shoot-
ing forth to the world, which, if watered and nursed by your Honors' liberality and attention,
may, hereafter, grow up ablooming Republic. After our humble recommendations and services
to your Honors, we leave oflf and remain your Honors' obedient servants and inhabitants.

but he will afford their High Mightinesses information on all points. Whereupon deliberation
being had, it is resolved and concluded that the aforesaid letter shall be placed in the hands of
Messrs Aersbergen and the other their High Mightinesses Deputies for West India affairs to

Jeremy Wood says that upon some conference I had with Armitage, two or three days
after he had passed a deed of gift to his son, he told me "he had taken an opportunity, being
Mr. Moore and Mr. Wood had been in the town, and gotten them to make a deed of gift of the
£^o which I and Henry Pearsall stood bound for D. Whitehead, that at theendof ten or eleven
years he should have both that and the moneys due from James Pine when the time was
expired." Anna Gildersleeve, wife of John Smith Nants, says that Mr. Wood, of Newtown,
lately deceased, being at my father's, told me, upon some discourse concerning the deed of
gift to Manasses, that to his knowledge there was such a deed made, but whether he or Mr.
Moore had written it he did not remember, but both their hands were to it. Elizabeth, wife
of Jeremy Wood, saith that about seven years past, Martha, the late wife of Thomas Armitage,
being at my house, she told me that ' 'Mr. Wood and Mr. Moore were, as she supposed, then
at her house, and were about making a deed of gift from her husband to her son-in-law ; " and
thereupon I going forth out of doors with Martha, we saw both Mr. Moore and Mr. Wood come
out of the house, and then Martha said to me : "Now, I suppose they have done it ; " and I
having had some discourse with Thomas concerning the matter, he acknowledged that he had
made a deed of gift of some part of his estate to Manasses, and that his children should enjoy
his estate, lest the children of the stepmother should deprive his own children. A., 155-162.

•we have rec'd severall addresses from our subjects of severall coloneys of New England, all full
of duty and affection, and expressions of loyalty and allegiance to us, with their humble desire
that we would renew their several charters, and receive them into our favourable opinion and
protection ; and several of our coloneys there, and other our loveing subjects have likewise
complayned, differences and disputes arisen upon the limits and bounds, whereby unneighborly
and unbrotherly contentious have and may arise, to the damage and discredit of the English
interests ; and thatt all our good subjects residing there, and being planters, within the severall
coloneys, do not enjoy the liberty and privileges granted to them by our severall charters, upon
confidence and assurance of which they transported themselves and their estates into those
partes, and we having received some addresses from the great men and natives of those coun-
treys, in which they complayne of breach of fayth, and acts of violence and injustice which
they have been forced to undergoe from our subjects, whereby not only our government is tra-
duced, but the reputation and credit of the christian religion brought into prejudice and re-
proach with the Gentiles and inhabitance of those countreys, who know not God, the reduction
of whom to the true knowledge and fear of God ; is the most worthy and glorious end of all
those Plantations ; upon all which motives, and as an evidence and manifestation of our fath-
erly affection toward all our subjects in those severall coloneys of New England [that is to
say], of the Massachusetts, Connecticutt, New Plimouth, Road Island and the Providence Plan-
tations, and all other Plantations within that tract of land known under the appellation of New
England ; and to the end we may be truly informed of the state and condition of our good sub-
jects there, that soe we may the better know how to contribute to the farther improvement of
their happyness and prosperity ; Know yee, therefore, that wee, reposing speciall trust and

NICOIvE'S CAL,E FOR CONVENTION, 1665.!
"Whereas, the Inhabitants of Long Island have for a long time groan'd under many
grievous inconveniences and discouragemts , occasioned partly from their Subjection, partly
from their opposition, to a forreigne Power, in which distracted condition, few or no Lawes
could be put in due Execution; Bounds and Titles to Lands disputed, civill Libertyes inter-
rupted, and, from this General! confusion, private dissentions and animosityes have too much
prevaid'd against neighborly Love and Christian Charity. To the preventing of the future
growth of the like Evills, his Maj'y (as a signall grace and honour to his subjects upon Long
Island) hath at his owne charge reduc't the forraigne power to his obedience, and by Patent,
hath invested His Royall Highnesse the Duke of York, with full and absolute Power, in and over
all and every the particular Tracts of Land mentioned, w^h said Powers by commission from His
Royall Highnesse the Duke of York, I am deputed to put in Execution. In discharge therefore,
of my Trust and Duty, to settle good and Known Laws within this Government, for the future,
and receive yor best advice and informacou in a genall meeting; I have thought fitt to Publish
unto you, that upon the last day of this present ffebruary, at Hempstead upon Long Island,
shall be a genall meeting, which is to consist of Deputyes chosen by the Major part of theflxec-
men only; which is to be understood of all Persons Rated according to their Estates, whether
English or Dutch, within your sevcrall Townes and Precincts, whereof you are to make Publi-
cation to the Inhabitants foure dayes before yo" proceed to an Election, appointing a certain
day for that purpose. You are further to impart to the Inhabitants from mee,That I doe heart-
ily recommend to them the Choice of the most Sober, able and discrete Persons, without parti-
ality or faction, the fruite and benefitt whereof, will return to themselves, in a full and perfect
composure of all controversies, and ye propagation of true Religion amongst us. They are
alsoe required to bring wth them a Draught of each Towne Limitts, or such writings as are nec-
essary to evidence the Bounds and Limitts, as well as the right by which they challenge such
Bounds and Limitts, by Grant and Purchase, or both. As alsoe to give notice of meeting to the
Sachems of the Indians, whose presence may in some cases be necessary. Lastly I doe require
you to assemble your Inhabitants and read this Letter to them, and then and there to nominate
a day tor the Election of two Deputyes from your Towne, who are to bring a certificate of their
Election [wth full power to conclude any cause or matter relating to their Several Townes] to

DUKE OF YORK TO LIEUTENANT BROCKHOLES.*

Newmarkett, 28 March [1682].
Lieutenant Brockholes.
Since my arrivall here I have had an acct of ye result of divers meetings of my Comrs
touching ye state of aflfayres at New Yorke, but untill I come to London [wch I doubt will
not be till this ship is sailed], I cannot perfect those resolucons wch I shall take thereupon;
only for ye prsent, in confirmacon of w* my Secy lately wrote to you I send ys to tell you
that I intend to establish such a forme of governem* at New Yorke as shall have all ye advan-
tages & privileges to ye inhabitants & traders there, weh His Mats other plantacons in America
doe enjoy, particularly in ye chooseing of an Assembly, and in all other things as nere as may
be agreable to ye laws of England. But yn I shall expect yt the Countrey of New Yorke and
its Dependencyes shall provide some certaine fonds for ye necessary support of ye governemt
and garrison, and for dischargeing ye arreares weh are or shal be incurred since ye obstruccons
y' have lately beene to the collection of ye publique revenue there. Wherefore you are to use
all dilligence to induce ye people there of best note and estates, to dispose ym selves and their
friends to a cheerfull complyance in this point, and you may assure ym yt wt soever shal be
thus raysed, shal be applyed to those publique uses. For I seeke ye common good and
protection of ye countrey and ye increase of their trade, before my advantages to my selfe in ys
matter. By the next shipping I intend you shall heare further from mee. I am &c.

DUKE OF YORK TO GOVERNOR ANDROS.f
[New York Entries, CLI, 17.']
First yn. touching Generall Assemblyes weh ye people there seeme desirous of in

yt kind, both as being not at all comprehended in yor Instructions nor indeed consistent wth
ye forme of governmt already established, nor necessary for ye ease or redress of any
greivance yt may happen, since yt may be as easily obtained, by any peticon or other
addresse to you at their Generall Assizes [weh is once a yeare] where the same persons [as

Sheriffs and other OflScers of Justice to be appointed with like power as in Eng-
land.
This is not so distinctly granted or practiced in any other Plantation.
That the Supream Legislative Authority shall remain in the Governor, Councill
and the People mett in a GenH Assembly.
The words The People met in a General Assembly are not usedin any other Con-
stitution in America; But only the Words General Assembly.
The Exercise of the Chief Magistracy and Administration of the govemm' shall
be in the Gov"" assisted by a Councill; with whose advice and consent he shall
and may govern and rule the said Province according to the laws established.
If this oblige and restrain the Govr from doing anything without the Councill it
is a greater restraint than any other Gov is subject to.
That according to the usage and practice of the kingdom of England there shall
be a sessions of a Generall Assembly to be called to meet once in 3 Years or
oftner.
This is an Obligation upon the government greater than has been ever agreed to
in any other Plantation. And the grant of such a privilege has been rejected
elsewhere, notwithstanding a Revenue offered to induce it.
Which Representatiues of the Province with the Governor and his Councill shall
be the supream and only legislatiue power of the said Province.
Whether this does not abridge the Acts of Parliament that may be made concern-
ing New York.
That all Bills agreed upon by the said Representatiues shall be presented by them
to the Governor and Councill for the time being for their Approbation and
Consent.
This seems to take away from the Governor and Councill the power of framing
I^aws as in other Plantations.
Which Bills so approved shall be deemed a I,aw for the space of two years unless
the Lord Proprietor shall signify his dissent within that time. That in case
the Lord Proprietor shall confirm the Laws within that time, they shall con-
tinue in force untill repealed by the Assembly. That in Case of Dissent or
Determination of two years they shall be voyd.
This Term of years does abridge the King's power, and has been thought incon-
venient in other Plantations, and is different from Colonel Dungan's Instruc-
tions.
No person shall be admitted to sitt in the Assembly untill he hath taken the
Oaths of Allegiance and Fidelity to the Lord Proprietor.
This must be altered at present.
And by his submission and peaceable behaviour hath demonstrated his affection
to the Government.
This seems to be restrained by what follows.
That the Assembly shall with the Consent of the Governor judge of undue elec-
tions, and of the Qualifications of the Representatiues; And with the like con-
sent to purge their house, and expell any member as they shall see occasion.
This may be inconvenient, and is not practiced in some other Plantations.
That the forfeiture for not making due Entries shall be applyed, one third to the
Lord Proprietor, one third to the Governor and one third to the Informer.
The application to the Govr is unusuall.
That all Christians shall enjoy Liberty of Conscience, so they do not disturb the
peace.
This is practised in the Proprieties.
That every publick Minister upon Long Island shall be maintained according to
subscriptions: That all Contracts made in New York for the maintenance of
the severall ministers shall be made good.
This is agreeable to the Practice of New England, but not of his Ma's other
Plantations.

ISLAND OF NASSAU.!
April, 10, 1693, the name of Long Island was changed to the "Island of Nassau," an
alteration which arose from political vanity, and was neither popular, or generally adopted.
The act, although it is believed never, explicitly repealed, was suffered to become obsolete by
disuse.
The words of this act are as follows: —
"Be it Enacted by the Governor, and Council, and Representatives, convened in
General Assembly, and by the authority of the same. That the Island commonly called and
known by the Name of Long Island, shall from henceforth be called the Island of Nassau; and
that after the Publication hereof, all their Majesties loving Subjects are hereby required, in all
Grants, Patents, Deeds, Conveyances, Bargains of Sale, Bills, Bonds, Records, and other Instru-
ments in Writing, that shall hereafter be made, granted, conveyed, bargained, sold, and executed,
for or concerning the said Island, or any Part or Place, within the same, or in any County
thereof, to call and denominate the said Island in all such deeds and Escripts, as aforesaid, the
Island of Nassau; any Thing contained in any former Act to the Contrary hereof in any wise
notwithstanding. ' '

X Maidstone is in the west centre of Kent County. Cranbrooke is about twelve miles due south from it, while
Loose, Linton, and Horsmonden are about on the same line going south from Maidstone to Cranbrooke. Lang-
ley is east of the line, and Harrietsham east again of it, both near Loose. Brenchley is west, and Staplehurst
east of the line, about parallel to Horsmonden. Tenterden is southeast of Cranbrooke, with Wittersham south
of Tenterden, and Lydd, once a seaport, is still farther to the southeast, almost to Dengeuess Head. Sadomi is
doubtless an error in copying.

1 1 trace from Lewis Moore, of Rocky Hill, N. J., by a paper bearing date 1772. It consists of three aflSdavlts
by as many persons who knew Lewis Moore and his family. These are attested by the then Mayor of the City
of New York and by the then Governor of the Province of New York, to which are attached the seals of both
city and province. The seal se»t you is a copy of one my grandfather owned and which afler his death came
into the pos.session of one of my uncles. He died among strangers and the original has been lost. I have a min-
iature portrait of John Moore, of Bombay, date about 1770, also one of his brother William Moore, dated 1777,
and one of John W., a son of William, about 1818. (The seal is like the one on the cover of this book. J. W. M.)

I Tradition— Emmor Moore's father (possibly Emmor himself) kept store near the Brandywine, in Pennsyl-
vania, and was well off. He failed on account of the depreciation of Continental money. Emmor, and possibly
his father, removed to Westmoreland Co. One child was born there, John, and possibly all were. The family

(2) Nov. 29, 1685, at New York, Anna Jaros {i. e., Anna, daughter of John), widow of Gozen
Stephenson (George), by her first husband, she had a son John Stephenson, b. before 1685, who
was afterward called John King; by her second husband, William Moore, she had Hannah, who
was married; she had a third husband (Jonnantell) and had three daughters, leaving some prop-

(Newtown).
William Moore, Pennsylvania. My own aucestors, as far as I can trace, were among
those who were involved in the Rebellion of the Earl of Argyle, and after his execution in 1685,
fled, or were banished to the London colonies in Ulster. There, in 1689-90, the first ancestor of
my given name "William" was born in Londonderry, or nearit, just before or during the siege.
The name, of course, indicates the politics and the adhesion of the Argyle rebels to the Orange
rebels. A family tradition handed down from father to son in a direct line, is that the young
namesake of the Prince of Orange starved for want of nourishment, was supposed to be dead,
when a woman who had lost her child took him to her breast and cherished him back to life!
As soon as his parents, reduced to utter poverty, could gather themselves together, they went to
America, early in the i8th century, and landed with a shipload, probably of Redemptioners, at
New Castle on the Delaware. Fortunately the father was a blacksmith and soon found work on
a farm belonging to Wm. Steele, Jr., a part of Penn's Manor of Steyning, and occupied by his
sister, a Mrs. Donnel then, or soon, a widow. The son of William*, Jacob^ by name, b. 1730,
m. Widow Donnel and carried on her business. In 1772, by his will Sept. 15, Wm. Steele, Jr.'
conveyed to his brother-in-law, Jacob, and sister, Hannah Moore, the property on which 'they
were living in Mill Creek Hundred, New Castle Co., Del., and which is still in the posses-
sion of the family. Jacob Moore^ and Hannah Moore had Andrew', b. 1768 ; William' b Dec

son, of Chicago, lie was elected by acclamation. Dr. Moore was born at Strasburg, Penn., in
1823, was graduated from Yale College in 1847, and was a private student in theology while
principal of the Fairfield Seminary, in Connecticut. He was licensed to preach in 1850, and
began his pastoral life in the First Presbyterian Church, of West Chester, Penn., where he re-
mained from 1850 to 1872, when he accepted a call to the Second Church, of Columbus, Ohio,
which he also served twenty-two years. In April, 1894, on the completion of his seventieth year,
he resigned his pastorate, and since that time has been acting as pastor emeritus. Dr. Moore
has prepared four digests of the General Assembly, ' ' The New School Digest," in i86i, " The
Digest of 1873, after the Reunion," " The Digest of 1886, after the Adoption of the Book of
Discipline," and " The Digest of 1898." In addition to his other faithful work for the Presby-
terian Church, Dr. Moore served as a member of the committees which formed the Book of Dis-
cipline, and which prepared a revision of the Confession of Faith and the Consensus Creed, the
latter committee having been raised during his term as Moderator. He was also a member of
the Council of the Pan-Presbyterian Alliance, in 1877, 1888, and 1892. Marietta College gave
him the degree of S.T.D. in 1873, and lyake Forest added the title of IvL.D. in 1892. In speak-
ing of his work recently to a friend. Dr. Moore said, with characteristic modesty : "My public
work for the Church is about done. How well done the Master will decide. He has been a
good Master, and his Church has honored me more than I deserve"*

E1.Y Famii,y. The emigrant ancestor of this family was Nathaniel Ely, who died at
Springfield, Dec. 25, 1675. He probably came to this country in 1634. The late Col. Chester
gives strong reasons for believing that Nathaniel, of Springfield, was a son of Rev. Nathaniel
Ely and grandson of Rev. George Ely, vicar of Tenterden in Kent, from 1571 to 1615. He gives
the families of both Rev. George Ely and his son Nathaniel. Nathaniel, son of the latter, was
probably born in 1602. Col. Chester says: "I cannot in my own mind resist the conviction that
he was identical with the Nathaniel Ely who appeared in New England about 1634. Of course,
there is no absolute proof, but this group of facts is strongly suggestive."^

purchased the manor of Helmedon-Netherby of John Fountayne, Esq., in 1563.** His manor
was also known as Cope's Manor, having been for many descents in that family. In 1579 he
bought the estate of Abbots Stockinsft and then owned or subsequently purchased the estate of
Cope's Stockins in the same parish of Helmedon. Thomas Emyley, Esq., d. in 1608, seized of
the Manor and of the above and other estates, leaving Maximilian Emyley, his son and heir,
then of full age.H Mr. Baker compiled the annexed pedigree from Herald's Visitations and the

ttt Emley-Emlen Family. These families probably had the same source, from Helmedon, and they proba-
bly were from the West Riding of York or Scotland. Thomas Emlin, the learned and persecuted Arian divine
and author who was *. at Stamford, Lincolnshire, 1663, was perhaps of this family of Helmedon, d. 1743. A
family sumamed Emien flourished in West Jersey at an early period.

ton, N. J. The Moore in the name Moore Furman§ is evidently a family name, for his seal
attached to official papers bears the same crest as that of the Moores of Ipswich, ISngland. He
began business as a merchant in Trenton. He was a trustee of the Presbyterian Church of that
place, 1760-4. Soon after the latter date he removed to Pittstown and purchased real estate
in and around the place. He built the stone grist-mill, kept store near where Mr. Sylvester
Probasco's house stands, and kept a grain distillery and a hand-wrought nail factory in the
basement of the old frame house which stood, till lately, near the mill. A large business was
done in grain, flour, whiskey and hand-wrought nails, and heavily loaded wagons were kept on
the road between Pittstown and Lamberton (now South Trenton), the head of water carriage
to Philadelphia. He lived in the "Old Red House" which stood where is now Mr. Porter C.
Little's residence. He was Judge of the Court of Common Pleas 1777-1785, a Justice of the
Peace 1781 and 1786, and a Deputy Commissary of the Revolution, which position he resigned
Sept. 20, 1780. His storage of army supplies was kept in a house where that of Mr. W. Henry
Smith stands. In Vol. VIII of Original Manuscript Letters in the Library of the American
Philosophical Society in Philadelphia are five or six of his letters dated from Pittstown, 1779,
and in Vol. IX is one dated from the same place, Nov. 8, 1779. These letters relate chiefly to
commissary business. There is a credible tradition that Gen. Washington staid over night
with him one or twice at Pittstown. About 1786 or 1787 he removed to Philadelphia, leaving
his business at Pittstown in charge of Benjamin Guild and his son John W. Furman. A little
later he returned to Trenton, and was again chosen as trustee of the Presbyterian Church,
which ofiice he continued to hold until his death. He was the first Mayor of Trenton by ap-
pointment of the Legislature on its incorporation in 1792, and was a Presidential Elector in
Horn, his sister, is dead and has left three children who draws i/3_ of i/ii of the whole or 1/3 of /"400, is .^133 6 8

1/6 of i/iiofthe whole, or 1/6 of /■400, that is £(A 13 4 each, five of these children are alive and draw £-iyi 6 8. One
of Elizabeth's children is dead and lias left eight children, minors, who draw 1/8 of one of her children's shares
or 1/8 of £kS 13 4, which is £'& 6 8 each, equal to ^400. Estimated value of the land, ^4400. The above calculation
is made upon the supposition that the children and grandchildren of the several personsjdec. will draw equal
shares, but as there are males and females the pro^Dortion of the males were greaterand thatof the females less.

APPENDIX 495
of the Minutes of Conferences of the Methodist Bpiscopal Church; John Potts, the subject of
this biographical notice, was born in Hunterdon County, New Jersey. Of his early history,
conversion to God, and call to the ministry, we have but little satisfactory information. He
commenced his itinerant labours in 1812, under the direction of a presiding elder. In the fol-
lowing year he was admitted on trial in the Philadelphia annual conference, and appointed to
Freehold circuit. He subsequently filled some of the most important appointments in the dif-
ferent sections of this then extended conference, as may be seen by recurring to the minutes, in
all of which he prosecuted the duties of his high vocation with acceptance and more than ordi-
nary success. His last field of labour was the South Philadelphia district, to which he was
appointed as presiding elder at the conference of 1834. Here his versatility of ministerial and
business talent was seen and acknowledged. He presided in the quarterly conference with dig-
nity, preached to the edification of the church and the awakening and conversion of sinners,
and counseled both ministers and members with ability and fidelity. In this important and re-
sponsible office he added greatly to the amount of valuable service he had rendered to the cause
of God, and acquired for himself additional esteem and affection from his bretliren and friends.
On this field he also fought his last conflict and gained his last signal and complete victory.
At the conference for 1836 he was violentl)' attacked with disease, which soon affected his lungs,
and continued its ravages until it terminated his useful life on the 22d of September, 1837. His
sufferings for nearly eighteen months were constant, and much of the time severe. Through
grace, however, he was enabled to bear all with patience and resignation. In the last part of
his sickness, especially, he abounded in the strong consolations of the gospel. He perfectly
understood his condition, and knew that his end was drawing near. He conversed about his
departure with perfect freedom and composure. About three weeks before his death he told a
friend his wish respecting his funeral and the place of his interment, and desired him to make
the arrangements accordingly, and when informed that he had done so, expressed a satisfaction
that his last temporal business was finished. The last three days of his life were days of un-
mitigated physical agony. To use his own words, "It seemed as if his flesh was all on fire."
But during the whole time his mind was perfectly serene and happy. During the last day,
after his extremities were cold in death, he frequently repeated the expression, "So shall we
ever be with the Lord." A short time before his death, observing his companion standing by
his bed and weeping, he addressed her with much tenderness, as follows: "O, my dear wife,
we shall soon meet again." And then, as if he already felt so much of eternity that time
dwindled into comparative nothingness, added, "soon, soon," repeating the word four or five
times. After he had remained with his eyes closed for some time, he opened them, and said
with feebleness, but with distinctness, "This is the valley of the shadow of death, but I go
through fearing no evil." A friend present repeated, "Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me."
He nodded his head in the affirmative, and slept in death. O how transcendant the moral
beauty and sublimity of such a death-bed scene ! Here was the joy of triumph when engaged
in the dreadful conflict. Here was the peace of heaven amid the dying strife of earth. Here
was the Christian with his feet upon the neck of the king of terrors, calmly dispossessing him-
self of his fleshly garment, and with majesty and glory taking his egress from this state of pro-
bationar}' warfare, and ascending to the enjoyment of the rich rewards of immortality, for which
he had so long and so successfully contended. In giving a summary of the character of our
deceased brother, we observe his excellences were many. As a friend, he was sincere and con-
stant, as a husband and a father, affectionate and faithful, as a Christian, consistent and devo-
ted, and as a minister, talented and useful. Such were the character and death of our departed
Brother Potts. Let us cherish his memor}' and his virtues, let us imitate his example and emu-
late his piety, and may God grant that we may die his death and that our last end may be like
his!
The following is his record from the Minutes of Philadelphia Conference of the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church: 1813, admitted on trial and appointed to Freehold under Wm. Mills ;
1814, remained on trial and was appointed to Sussex under Jos. Osborn; 1815, admitted into
full connection and ordained deacon and appointed to Northampton; 1816, deacon elect ap-
pointed to Essex and Staten Island; 1817, appointed to Caroline, Chesapeake District; 1818,
made elder, sent to Union Church, Phila.; 1819, sent to Bergen; 1820-1, to Burlington; 1822-3,
to Wilmington; 1824-5, f° Trenton and Bloomsbury (S. of Trenton); 1826-7, to Bridgeton;
1828-9, to Salem; 1830-1, to Morristown ; 1832-3, to Paterson; 1834-5-6, Presiding Elder of
South Phila. District; 1836-7, superannuated; 1837, Sept. 22, died. Text used at the funeral of
Rev. John Potts: " And Pharoah said unto Jacob how old art thou.'' And Jacob said unto
Pharoah the days of the years of my pilgrimage are an hundred and thirty years: few and evil
have the days of the years of my life been and have not attained unto the days of the years of
the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage," Gen. xlvii, 8 and 9.
We* have the opportunity of exhibiting the sentiments taught by the Methodists 70 years
ago. Visiting the rooms of the His. Soc. of the Phila. Conference, we found some copies of the
first paper ever published in this part of the country, one of the predecessors of the Christian
Advocate, and looking it over we found a funeral sermon preached by the Rev. John Potts,
occasioned by the death of Mrs. Elizabeth Edmonds, Aug. 28, 1825, and at our request the Rev.
Alexander Wiggins, A.M., custodian of the library, made a copy of the discourse. It is so brief
and so well composed that we herewith print it, omitting only the remarks relating to the de-
ceased and to the joys of heaven. To every line of that discourse we subscribe, and are glad to
present it as almost a perfect model of composition: Funeral sermon by the Rev. John Potts,
* The Christian Advocate, New York, Thursday, October 19, 1893.
4.96 APPENDIX
occasioned by the death of Mrs. Elizabeth Edmonds, August 28, 1825: "To die is gain." — Phil,
i : 21. We shall ( i) inquire who those are to whom death will be gain; (2) what they will gain;
and (3) make some remarks on the character of our deceased sister. Agreeable to this arrange-
ment we shall attempt a definition of those characters to whom death will be gain, and in doing
this we shall assume the position that the provisions of the Gospel are adequate to the spiritual
wants of all mankind, and that eternal salvation, through the merits of a Saviour, is absolutely
attainable by every child of Adam. To suppose the contrary would be to suppose that the Gos-
pel system is both irrational and cruel, irrational in requiring that of man as the condition of
salvation which is utterly impossible for him to perform, and cruel in dooming him to hell for
the non-performance of that which it is impossible to do; and I would further observe that that
which a man is absolutely unable to do (no matter whether this inability be natural or moral)
never can be prescribed to him as the condition of his salvation, without supposing a predeter-
mination in tlae divine mind that he should perish forever. But this cannot be. The repeated
and positive declarations of the word of God, all that we behold of the divine wisdom and be-
nevolence in the works of creation, all our own conceptions of the fitness of things, together
with all the best feelings of our nature, forbid the preposterous and horrible supposition that
the God of Ivove will consign a poor worm of earth to the never ending tortures of hell for not
performing impossibilities. ( i ) After these remarks you will not be surprised that I rank sincere
heathens among the heirs of immortal bliss, among those to whom death will be gain. It is
certainly a cruel divinity that damns pagan nations to hell en masse ; a divinity the farthest
from the benevolent religion of Jesus, which teaches us that in every nation he that feareth God
and worketh righteousness is accepted with him. For myself I have no doubt that many who
have lived and died without having ever heard the name of Jesus will sit down with the chil-
dren of their common Father in the kingdom of glory, in consequence of the improvement of
that light that enlighteneth every man that cometh into the world, of that grace that bringeth
salvation to all men. (2) The idiot, who never possessed the capacity to obey the Gospel, or
to reject its proffered blessings, will he entitled to eternal salvation, agreeable to the tenor of
this Gospel, which secures all its promised blessings to everyone that does not personally reject
them. This the man who never possessed reasoning powers never could do. (3) Death is gain
to those who die in infancy. To spend a moment in supporting the truth of this position would
be to ofl^er an insult to the feelings and good sense of my audience. A man that would indulge
in a doubt on this subject must have the feelings of a brute and the heart of a fiend. (4) To
the Christian believer death will be gain. By the Christian believer is here intended the man who
has been convinced of the evil nature and the dire effects of sin, of the turpitude of his own
crimes and the corruption of his nature, and who has in consequence of this conviction made
an humble and earnest application to Him who is able to save to the uttermost all that come to
God through Him; who has obtained redemption in the blood of Jesus, even the forgiveness of
his sins, and in whose heart divine love is the ruling principle, prompting him to the faithful
discharge of every social, relative, and religious duty. But I forbear, the Christian character
has so often been delineated in this place that I conceive any further observations upon it at the
present to be unnecessary. Suffice it to say that to this character death will be gain on the
condition of his faithful perseverance in the path of Christian duty to the end.
[If this be true, there is no need of a future probation, except in the system ofthose who
deny that human life in any event is sufficiently long to admit of a determinate choice in those
who possess the human faculties, and live to an age of responsibility, and also to admit of spir-
itual regeneration, a proposition which, if accepted, would carry with it the conclusion that the
system revealed in the Bible is inconsistent or unintelligible or impracticable or untrue, accord-
ing to the notions which individuals may entertain of the teachings of its various parts. —

engineers that laid out the road, and after it was completed, he became the freight agent at
Phillipsburg, which position he held for nearly thirty years and was then appointed baggage

Thomas Wii,i,BTT, afterwards first Mayor of New York, arrived, whilst yet a
young man, at Plymouth, in 1629, from Leyden in Holland, where he had been sojourn-
ing with other Puritans. He was sent the following year to Penobscot to superintend
a trading house, but returned soon after and engaged in the carrj'ing trade between the
New England Colonies and New Amsterdam, where he is found possessing some land
interests in 1645. He was, in subsequent years, an active friend to the Dutch, whom he more
than once seasonably notified of the designs of the English. He was a Magistrate of Plym-
outh from 1651 to 1664, when, at the request of Colonel Nichols, he accompanied the expedition
against the Dutch Colony. On the change of the charter of the City of New York to an Eng-
lish form, in 1665, Captain Willett was appointed its first Mayor, and held that office again in
1667, in the course of which year, 'tis presumed, he returned to New England and settled at
Rehoboth or Swansey (now in the town of Seeconck), Mass., where he died on the 3d of August,
1674.* A plain monument marks the spot where his ashes repose, t

soldier, killed a British soldier half a mile west of Pennington, in 1776. Benjamin Mershon
