THE SPERRY FAMILY.
SPERRY. [Data of early Sperry families (to 1753) furnished Prof. DANIEL CADY ENTON of Yale College, New Haven, Conn. ]
Richard, of New Haven, 1643: sworn freeman, 1644: m. Dennis It is a fra- dition in the fam. that Rich'd Sperry came to N. Haven as gardener or agent for the Earl of Warwick. It is certain that to him was granted a large tract of land known as " the farme," and still called Sperry's Farms, located on the W. side of West Rock, in what is now the town of Woodbridge. His descendants are still found owning and occupying the land in this vicinity.
"At A Courte held the 2th of May 1645 (Ver Haren Col. R.e. p. 375), Richard Sperry was complained of for not comeing to watch, but Mr. Goodier answered for hime that when he was neare comeing from the farme they wanted an oxe, the neager said he was sicke & left in the woods, so he was faine to goe forth to seeke hime least hee should be lost."
Richard Sperry's claim to history is that he was the courageous and faithful friend and protector of the Regicides, and their story is too well known to be repeated here. He died between 1693 and 1698. Ilis will, dated Is Apl .. 1693, is to be found in N. II. Prob. Ree., Vol. 11, pp 230-1. His widow, Dennis Sperry. sied prob. Feb. or Meh., 1707. (h. :

Daniel Sperry; "confirmed to be Lient, of the trainband on the north west part of the town of New Haven," May. 1721 fol. Re. Vol VI, p. 252); he was living in 1783, and how much longer does not yet appear.

Literary Instituwat Suffichl, Conn .: stadiet medicine for three years in Philadelphia, receiving the degree of M.D from the Woman's Medical College in that city with the Chiss of 1571. She spent the sonner of 7 in the Wom an's Hospital in Phila., and in the fall went to Paris to continue her preparation for the prate- tire of medicine. In Jan., 152. she surrerded in obtaining permission to enter La Maternite. being the Ground American to enter where Dr. Emily Blackwell was the first. In at letter dated Pari -. Jan 11, 1822, she writes: " We are to en- ler the Maternity the 20th of this month. Our
upistles for the next six months will be of the shortest. Wr anticipate a onigh time - dormi- tory chambers, onion soup, and on duty from 6} o'clock in the morning nutil 9 at night.

You enter through the porter's alley and find your. -elf in a great paved enclosure surrounded on all sieles by the hospital buildings, which have an ancient, sleepy jak, with the little sunken win dow s and grass growing between the stones. The French doctors, clever old fellows, have a weak Tut's4 for Americans, and especially for American feminine Meds , che we should have been oblig'd to wait until the beginning of the scholastic year July 1-1.

gron came while we were pleading, and by much arguing of the superiority of American students in general, and of Miss Blackwell in particular, succeeded in overcoming the difficulties. After this little lion in the path had sufficiently illus- trated the dignity of his office, he gave us a most laughable proof that he was really pleased to book our nantes. He says, You must submit to half an hour's examination -- a dictation. ' Miss Bow den says, 'They write French very well it you will dictate slowly.' ' oh, the most slow possible !' (drawing out his syllables), 'and (with a wink) perhaps you had better accompany the ladies Oh, yes. I think you had better come, too." I re- gard this as a sort of good-bye letter before taking the veil. Students are allowed to go out six times a year, though we are anchored outside the wall to Miss Bowden, who promises to visit us and au- swer to any ery of distress. . Hospital liv ing will be cheap the actual figures of the circu- Jar put it at $110 a year. They all toll ns that it will be very hard: ' Americans are not need to such fare.' The Director gives us the privilege of or- dering anything we please at extra cost, of course." After spending a year in Paris. Dortor Sperry returned home and immediately settled for practice in Pittsburgh, Pa. She had surmounted many obstacles in her preparation for her life's work, and here again in the practice of her profes- sion acceptance of the woman as a physician came Slowly. Still, success cume in full measure, and with it the knowledge that she must yield at last -- a victim to the disease epithelioma. of what our sister wus, daughter and friend to ns at home, I cannot trust myself to speak, but quote from the letter of one who knew her well after she began
