ALICE COGSWELL HART, second daughter of Rev. Levi (75), b. Aug. 23, 1772, at Preston; m. Nov. 27, 1794, Calvin Goddard, of Norwich, Conn. She died May 3, 1832, aged 60 years, in the lively faith of a Christian. Her distinguished husband thus speaks of her: "My con- nection with this family," (Rev. Dr. Hart's) adds Judge Goddard, " has furnished me with a great proportion of my happiness during a long life; and as well from a knowledge of her Christian life, as from the circumstances of her triumphant death, I can not doubt she was removed to a mansion 'not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.' Our severe loss has been her gain. My children, under God, owe much of what they are to their dear mother, and I trust the influence of her character is not yet lost upon my grandchildren."
Judge Goddard was born July 17, 1768, at Shrewsbury, Mass., and died May 2, 1842. He graduated at Dartmouth College in 1786, in the class with his brother-in-law, William Sherman Hart.
