HISTORY OF NEW HAVEN COUNTY.

The church has a supporting fund of $4,500, bequeathed by Anson Perkins, $2,000; Dwight E. Todd, $1,000; Leonard Todd, $500; Juliana Bradley, $500; and Hannah Beecher. $500.

In connection with these old parishes schools were established and maintained to the extent of the ability of the people of those times. In 1750 £30 was expended in building the first school house in the southern part of the parish; and in 1780 one was built in the northern part. In 1890 the town had an interest in six districts, having from 24 to 34 weeks of school, which were maintained at an outlay of about $1,200.

About 1800 considerable freedom of opinion on religious matters prevailed. There was, also, as has been stated, much disaffection in the Congregational church, which caused many persons to leave, to seek more harmonious fellowship. Hence, when a class of Methodists was formed, in the western part of the town, it had an active support which it would not otherwise have received, and for a few years pros- pered to an unusual degree. The removal of a number of people from the town, after 1820, and a better condition in the established church, weakened the class, and it was not permanently maintained. Among the members were some of the French, Lounsbury and Wheeler fam- ilies. In the eastern part of the town, also, the doctrines of the Meth- odists received early acceptance, which resulted, later, in the building of a house of worship for that denomination. The meeting house is on the old New Haven road, southeast of the center. It is a plain frame, resting on a brick basement, put up at a cost of $1,200, and was dedicated in August, 1841. There are sittings in the main room for 200 people, and in 1890 the house was in fair order. Part of the lot on which it stands is devoted to burial purposes, in which interments were made prior to the building of the church. The trustees in 1890 were: Jerome A. Downs, Allen Lounsbury, Thomas H. Brooks, Sher- rill Brooks, D. B. Hoadley, William H. Lounsbury and Benajah Tuttle.

Among the first Methodists in this locality are remembered Joel Andrews, George F. Peck, Philo Sanford and members of their fam- ilies. In 1890 there were 25 members-a smaller number than a dozen years ago. This church and the one at Westville have for many years constituted a charge, having a minister in common. The principal appointees have been the following: 1828, Reverend N. Kellogg; 1836, A. S. Francis; 1837-8, J. Bowen; 1840-1, Charles W. Chapman; 1848-9, B. Pillsbury: 1850-1, C. F. Mallory; 1852-3, J. B. Merrone; 1854-5, F. B. Chandler; 1856, G. S. Gilbert; 1857-8, G. Stillman; 1859-60, J. M. Car- roll; 1861-2, W. Lawrence; 1863-5, W. H. Wardell; 1866, C. H. Buck; 1867-8, John Dickinson ; 1869-70, J. A. Dean; 1871-3, J. E. Richards; 1874, T. D. Littlewood; 1876-7, W. D. Thompson; 1878-80, J. M. Car- roll; 1881-3, S. K. Smith; 1884, G. L. Thompson; 1885, A. Hulead; 1886-8, C. W. Fordham; 1889, A. MeNicholl.

HISTORY OF NEW HAVEN COUNTY.

The cemeteries are small places of burial in the Lounsbury neigh- borhood, in the northwestern part of the town; in the Carrington neighborhood, in the northeastern part of the town; at the Methodist church, in the eastern part; and in the Sperry neighborhood, in the southeast. Most of these were established for local convenience, and some of them have been used only to a limited extent. The most in- terest centers around the ancient cemetery. This is more than a mile south of the churches, and is located on a dry, sandy side hill. Being removed from the main highways, it appears somewhat iso- lated. The area is more than an acre, which is enclosed with a good stone fence, and the ground is fairly kept. Here are the graves of some of the oldest families in the present town. Among the head- stones may be seen several whose inscriptions have become obliter- ated by age. Others have a modern appearance and were more re- cently put up by descendants of the deceased. The one marking the grave of Reverend Stephen Hawley, the first pastor of the church, was put up by the congregation, on its first centennial anniversary, Octo- ber 12th, 1863. He died July 17th, 1804, aged 66 years.

The cemetery adjoining the lot of the Episcopal church is spacious, neatly enclosed, and contains a number of fine monuments. The place presents an attractive appearance. Since 1851 it has been under the care and control of the " Union Burial Association," which took the old ground and enlarged and improved the same. In 1890 the princi- pal officers of this association were: President, Dwight L. Johnson; treasurer, Samuel R. Woodward; and secretary, George B. Hotchkiss. This may be considered the principal place of interment, and it is well managed.

One of the most stirring incidents in the history of the county during the revolution occurred in Bethany. Along the Naugatuck lived many adherents of the British crown. Their opinions were made more steadfast because of a belief that their religious obliga- tions demanded that they should be royalists. They were churchmen and their societies were established or supported by the "Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts," which required of those aided an oath of fidelity to British rule. Religious duty was stronger than feelings of patriotism, provoked by oppressive rule. In this they were no exception to many other communities in other parts of the country, and many were really blameless in their purposes. Bethany, it appears, was so far removed from the course of the armies as to be free from predatory incursions. This effected a sense of se- curity which induced some families to take up their residence in the parish, in preference to their old homes, where life and property were less secure. Among the new residents was Captain Ebenezer Dayton, who had been a merchant at Brook Haven, Long Island, where he was also interested in an American privateersman. He had amassed much property in trade, and by the latter means, which made his stay in

Long Island perilous. Hence he brought his family and movable effects to Bethany. He secured a house on the old " green," where was, also, besides the church, the houses of Reverend Stephen Hawley and Doctor Hooker. The movements of Captain Dayton appear to have been known to his tory neighbors on Long Island, and the fact of his having so much money probably awakened their cupidity to such an extent that a plan was laid to capture it at the new home. Alexander Graham was entrusted with the details of this movement. He secured a commission for such an expedition from General Howe, the British commander, and set out to execute it. Going to old Derby about the middle of March, 1780, he stopped at the tavern of Turell Whittemore, which stood on a bluff a mile below where is now Sey- mour. Here he unfolded his plans to some tory sympathizers, showed his commission, and asked them to enlist. He succeeded in forming a company of six persons, and on Tuesday night, March 14th, 1780, they left their rendezvous for Bethany. At the time of the raid Cap- tain Dayton was away in Boston, and Mrs. Phebe Dayton, her three small children and two negro slave children were the only inmates of the house. A little after midnight Graham and hiscompany, who were well armed, forced their way into the house, bound Mrs. Dayton and prevented her from making an outcry.

They deliberately ransacked the house for the next two hours, and destroyed some property which they could not carry with them. In all they secured in gold, silver, bonds, notes and other valuables about £5,000 worth of property. Hastily leaving the Dayton mansion, at about two o'clock at night, they passed Perkins' tavern to Salem Bridge (now Naugatuck), on their way to Gunntown, near which place some of the foragers lived. On the way, near Naugatuck, they passed a young man, 19 years of age, named Chauncy Judd, who was just re- turning home from a visit to his sweetheart. Judd recognized some of them as his neighbors, and fearing he would expose them, they took him along. Proceeding beyond Gunntown, they were secreted several days at the David Wooster, Sr., mansion, still standing, in the south- eastern part of Middlebury. The robbery of the Dayton house and the mysterious disappearance of Chauncey Judd, created intense ex- citement in that part of the country, which was increased by the fact that the whigs and tories were here pretty evenly divided. From Da- vid Wooster's the robbers fled to the tavern of Captain Jolin Wooster, in the southern part of Oxford, which stood near his celebrated " Deer Park." Ncar by they were secreted a day and a night, when they fled to Derby, where they took a boat and quickly rowed down the river. By this time they were discovered and were pursued by horsemen on the shore, but succeeded in reaching the sound ahead of them. They reached Long Island in safety, but the following night all but one, who escaped by jumping out of the window, were captured by pur- suing parties, who crossed the sound in whale boats, commanded by

Captains William Clarke and James Harvey. They recovered the stolen goods and released Chauncy Judd and restored him to his parents. The robber leader, Graham, was found to be a deserter from the continental army, and was sent to Morristown, where a court martial condemned him to be executed.

" The others (the five under Graham) were put on trial in the su- perior court of New Haven, with David Wooster, Sr., Noah Candee, Daniel Johnson, William Seeley, Francis Noble and Lemuel Wooding (Whittemore's barkeeper). Two of the accused, Scott and Cady, were allowed to turn state's evidence. All the others were found guilty. David Wooster, Henry Wooster, Jr., and Samuel Doolittle (principals in the expedition) were each sentenced to a fine of 650 and imprison- ment for four years, in the Newgate state prison .* Noah Candee and David Wooster, Sr., were fined each $500 and imprisoned nine months in Hartford jail. Daniel Johnson was fined $250 and imprisoned nine months. Francis Noble was fined £50 and imprisoned one year. William Seeley was fined £25 and imprisoned nine months. Lemuel Wooding was fined $25 and imprisoned six months. In addition, Cap- tain Dayton recovered heavy damages in civil suits against the differ- ent parties, amounting to several thousand pounds. Mr. Judd also recovered £800 from the robbers and their accessories for damages to his son. This summary punishment was as discouraging to the tories of the vicinity as it was encouraging to the struggling patriots."+

It may be proper to add in this connection that Chauncy Judd married his sweetheart and became one of the leading men of Nauga- tuck. The other parties in this affair continued after the war, as they were before these troublous times, to be leading men in their several communities, and preserved the respect of their fellow citizens. In several cases their confiscated property was restored by acts of the gen- eral assembly.
