Allen was first lieutenant, and Austin Phelps second lieutenant; remained in service until latter part of October, '76, when he was dismissed, being at that time at, or near, Valentine's Hill, N. Y. After his enlistment he was marched to Weth- ersfield, and from thence sailed to New York city, where his company was stationed in Little Dock street, near the East river, and at the time of the bat- tle on Long Island his regiment were paraded near the wharf, but were not called into the action.
He had a second tour of duty, from August to the latter part of October, 1777. This time he was drafted at Windsor, in a company commanded by Jonathan Wadsworth of Hartford, captain, Phelps of Windsor, lieutenant, and Owen, ensign. This company belonged to a regiment commanded by Col. Cook of Wallingford, Lieut. Col. Woodbridge, Maj. Kent. They marched from Hartford, to Stillwater, N. Y., where he was in the battles under Gen. Gates, was present at Burgoyne's surrender at Saratoga, N. Y., marched to Albany, was there detailed as one of a guard (under Capt. Blake, Austin Phelps, lieutenant, and Reuben Wadsworth, orderly), to escort 100 prisoners to Hartford. Again, in September, 1778, he was drafted, at Windsor, to go to New London, where he served between two and three months in the militia, commanded by Capt. Allen of New London, and - Bissell of East Wind- sor, sergeant, mostly on guard service.

Daniel Jones' company, July 15, 1777, for three years, his term expir- ing July 15, 1780. He then enlisted again, at Hartford, went to Pomfret, where he was one of a company of ten men in charge of ammunition wagons, returned to Hartford, went to New York state, at Red Hook and Fishkill.
He was drafted for three months in summer of '76, was at New York at the

retreat from Long Island. In or about March, 1777, was drafted for three months, and went to Whiteplains, where he was at the time Danbury was burned.
P. 425, 1. 21. Additional particulars from same sources as the preceding : INCREASE MATHER enlisted at Windsor in early part of April, 1775, in the com- pany of Captain or Major Roger Enos, Lieuts. Willys and Blodget, and Con- verse, sergeant, for 8 months. He then enlisted while at Roxbury, for 12 or 14 months; was there when the battle of Bunker's Hill was fought. About the middle of November he enlisted, with consent of his captain, in another company, commanded by E. F. Bissell, Capt .; Lieut. Humphreys and Ensign Richard Goodman, in Col. Jedediah Huntington's regiment, from which he was discharged January, 1777.
During this service he was on Long Island, in August, 1776, was in several skirmishes there, and was in the army in its retreat from Long Island through Westchester. From July, '76, to January, '77, he acted as sergeant.
P. 426, 1. 13, insert the name of ROSWELL NOBLES born Oct. 24, 1758. He enlisted for one year, as a drummer, at Simsbury, May, 1776, in a company commanded by Capt. Noah Phelps, Lieut.

P. 433, after 1. 22, add, in Rev. Mr. Rowland's Records of Baptisms in Windsor Church, the following entry occurs : " 1795, Baptisms in new meet- ing house, and united parishes." Then follows under this, a record of the baptism, January 4, of a daughter of Samuel Allen.
P. 438. The First Congregational Church and Society of Windsor has a Church Fund, concerning which we have not been able to learn much. It probably had its beginning in the bequest of Jane (Fooks), the widow of William Hosford of Windsor, who returned to her home in Old England after her husband's death. On the 15th of January, 1671, being the 23d year of Charles the 2d, Mrs. Hosford, described as "of Tiverton, in the county of Devon, widow," made her will, of which her son Stephen Gaylord, John Witchfield and Walter Fyler of Windsor, were appointed the execu- tors. She devised certain moneys to Esther (or Stephen), Samuel and Sarah Gaylord, and to their children; the rent of a meadow to her sons-in law, John Hosford, and the three above named, during the life of the testator. After her demise, the meadow, comprising about 20 acres of meadow and swamp, was to go and belong to the " Old Church of Windsor " forever. (Lands, vol. I, p. 90, Conn. Arch.) On 13th of Oct., 1692, complaint was made to the General Court, by petition from the Windsor Church, that they

(Reprinted from the Congregational Quarterly, April, 1862.)
1 CHURCH COVENANT OF WINDSOR, CONN., A. D. 1647 .* [Dated Windsor, Oct. 23, 1647.]
1. We believe though God made man in an holy and blessed condition, yet by his fall he hath plunged himself and all his posterity into a miserable state. Rom. III, 23 ; v. 12.
2. Yet God hath provided a sufficient remedy in Christ for all broken hearted sinners that are loosened from their sins, and selves and world, and are enabled by faith to look to Him in Christ for mercy, inasmuch as Christ hath done and suffered for such whatever His justice requires to atone- ment and life; and he doth accept His merits and righteousness for them that believe in Him, and imputeth it to them for their justification, as if they had satisfied and obeyed themselves. Heb. vii, 25; Mat. xi, 28; xxii, 24 ; v. 4, 6; 1 Cor. i, 30; Rom. iv, 3. 5 ; y. 19.
3. Yet we believe that there is no other name or means to be saved from guilt and the power of sin. John, XIV, 6 ; Acts, IV, 12.
4. We believe God hath made an everlasting covenant in Christ with all penitent sinners that rest on him in Christ, never to reject, or cease to do them good. Heb. viii, 6; vii, 22; 1 Sam. xii, 22; Jer. xxxii, 40.
5. We believe this covenant to be reciprocal, obliging us to be his people, to love, fear, obey, cleave to him, and serve him with all our heart, mind and soul ; as him to be our God, to love, choose, delight in us and save and bless us in Christ; yea, as his covenant binds us to love him and his Christ for his own sake, so to love our brethren for his sake. Deut. x, 12; Hos. iii, 3 ; ii, 21; Deut. xxvi, 17-19; John, iv, 21.
6. We believe that God's people, besides their general covenant with God, to walk in subjection to him, and christian love to all his people, ought also
* For this interesting document we are indebted to the kindness of Hon. J. H. Trumbull of Hartford. Mr. T., says, " I found it a few weeks since in the MS. Note Book of one of the Dea- cons of that church (Matthew Grant), along with full notes of a sermon by Mr. Warham, Aug . 15, 1647 (two months before this covenant was adopted), ' on the matter and form of a church and of baptizing children.' I was pleased with the discovery, as the covenant is of much earlier date than any 1 have seen or known of in Connecticut. Mr. Warham was at the Cam- bridge Synod, in June, 1647 ; out of which, apparently, grew the sermon ; and the sermon prepared the way for the adoption of the Covenant. I may observe, however, that the sermon is, in great measure, a digest of Hooker's Survey, which Mr. W. must have not only perused, but thoroughly studied in MS. for it was not printed till the next year."
The Windsor Church was formed at Plymouth. England, in March, 1630 [there is a mistake in Sprague's notice of Warham; Annals, I, 10; Hawe's Note in Eccl. Cont. Conn., p. 86; and Mc. Clure's Hist. Windsor, Mass. Hist. Coll., 1st series, v, 166; all of whom name January, 1630, as the date, owing to a neglect of the fact that the year O. S., began with March, so that the " be- ginning of the year " would be March 1, and not January 1], by people from the counties of Devon, Dorset and Somerset ; and Warham and Maverick were ordained its pastor and teacher. They arrived at Dorchester, Mass., about the Ist of June, where they first settled. But hearing from the Dutch of a valuable tract of land on the Connecticut, they concluded to remove, and went in a body in the summer of 1635: carrying their church organization and Mr. Warham with them-Maverick dying in Dorchester. This creed and covenant (for it partakes of both elements) seems to have been adopted eleven years after the settlement of Windsor. Warham died in 1670, and Cotton Mather says, he was the first minister in Connecticut who preached " with notes."

to join themselves into a church covenant one with another, and to enter into a particular combination, together with some of his people, to erect a particu- lar ecclesiastical body, and kingdom, and visible family and household of God, for the managing of discipline and public ordinances of Christ in one place in a dutiful way, there to worship God and Christ, as his visible king- dom and subjects, in that place waiting on him for that blessing of his ordi- nances and promises of his covenant, by holding communion with him and his people, in the doctrine and discipline of that visible kingdom, where it may be attained. Rom. xii, 4, 5, 6 ; 1 Cor. xii, 27, 28 : Ephes. iv, 11, 12; Acts, ii, 47; Exod. xii, 43, 44, 45; Gen. xvii, 13; Isa. xxiii, 4.
7. We for ourselves, in the sense of our misery by the fall and utter help- lessness elsewhere, desire to renounce all other saviours but his Christ, and to rest on God in him alone, for all happiness, and salvation from all misery ; and do here bind ourselves, in the presence of men and angels, by his grace assisting us, to choose the Lord, to serve him, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep all his commandments and ordinances, and his Christ to be our king, priest and prophet, and to receive his gospel alone for the rule of our faith and manners, and to [be] subject to the whole will of Christ so far as we shall understand it : and bind ourselves in special to all the members of this body, to walk in reverend subjection to the Lord to all our superiors, and in love, humility, wisdom, peaceableness, meekness, inoffensiveness, mercy, charity, spiritual helpfulness, watchfulness, chastity, justice, truth, self-denial, one to another, and to further the spiritual good one of another, by example, counsel, admonition, comfort, oversight, according to God, and submit : or[selves] subject unto all church administration in the Lord.
