Mr. Haven was examined "as to his principles, both of doctrine and disciphne," and on March 23, 1738, he was chosen "to be their Gospel minister." His letter of acceptance consisted of une sentence:

He was pas- tor of the church nearly sixteen years, although five or six years before his death he "was taken off from his minis. terial labors by bodily weakness, con- tracting a consumptive habit, and was able to preach but very little during that time, to the uo small affliction of his pa- rishiouers." During his long illness they supplied the pulpit at their own charge avd grauted blm bis "anuuml stipend" until his death. A wife and seven chil- dren survived him, but in a brief period after his death his wife also died. Her place of burial I have not discovered as yet. Nearly six years passed away before the church settled another pastor.

Mr. Haven was "a man of nndissembled piety and virtue." He was a devoted aud successful pastor.
