(VI) Samuel (2), son of Samuel ( I) May. was born December 4, 1776, and died Febru- ary 23, 1870, aged ninety-three years three months. His brief schooling was under the teaching of Masters Ticknor and Vinal, and he early went as an apprentice into the hard- ware store of Samuel Torrey, in Dock Square, Boston. At the age of twenty-one he estab- lished himself in that business on Union street, and at the age of thirty built the warehouse still standing at No. I Broad street, where for sixty-six years the business was conducted by himself and his sons. In 1807 he established a branch house in Montreal, Canada, taking as a partner his nephew, John Frothingham. After a few years he sold his interest in this branch, which afterwards became one of the most extensive in its line in the Dominion. In 1809 he built at what is now Buffalo, the first frame building at that new trading post, and carried on, through agents there and in Lon- don, a profitable trade in furs, until the war of 1812, when the place was for the most part destroyed. In 1820 he became associated with Samuel Smith, of Peterborough, New Hamp- shire, and others, in cotton manufacturing, and in 1825 joined those who had recently started woolen mills at Salisbury, Massachusetts. He was a director of these mills for twenty-three years. In 1821, 1847 and 1857 he met with serious reverses of fortune, but did not lose courage. The last time, although over eighty

1124

years of age, he bought the entire Salisbury mill property, and with a new company revived the business with success.

At the age of thirty-four he was chosen deacon of the Hollis Street Church, but in 1845 he became a member of Rev. Theodore Parker's (Unitarian) society. He was an inti- mate friend of Mr. Parker. During many years, by annual election, he was an overseer of the poor, an officer of the Boston Dispen- sary, and a trustee or vice-president of the Provident Institution for Savings during nearly the whole of his active life. He was associated with Dr. Howe in establishing the Massachusetts Asylum for the Blind, and was one of the original proprietors of the Boston Athenaeum. He was of good figure and pres- ence, of uniformly temperate and regular habits, seldom ill, and retained his faculties unimpaired almost to his latest hour. A bust executed by Richard Greenough perpetuates his likeness.

He married, July 19, 1809, Mary Goddard, born December 15, 1787, died March 17, 1882, daughter of Joseph and Mary (Aspinwall) Goddard, of Brookline. At the age of four- teen she was taken into the family of her uncle, Nathaniel Goddard, of Boston, where until her marriage she was as their daughter. She was among the earliest promoters of the temper- ance and anti-slavery movements, with Mrs. Lydia Maria Child, Mrs. Maria Chapman, Miss Weston, and others who sustained Mr. Garrison. She lived to a great age, with her memory and facultics unimpaired. At the fif- tieth anniversary of their marriage, friends presented them with a beautiful silver pitcher ,suitably engraved, which is now in the posses- sion of his grandson, Admiral Edward May, Children : 1.

and at the Boston Latin School. He entered Harvard College in 1825, at the age of fifteen. He graduated in 1829, and was elected class secretary, which position he held until his death. The class book, containing the records inscribed in his clear and beautiful copper- plate handwriting, is in the possession of the college. Among his classmates were noted national characters, including Oliver Wendell Holmes, United States Supreme Court Justice Benjamin R. Curtis, Rev. S. F. Smith, author of "America," Chief Justice Bigelow, and James Freeman Clarke, D. D. The class num- bered fifty-nine, all but two of whom died before Samuel May.

Upon leaving college he studied theology a year with his cousin, Rev. Samuel J. May, of Brooklyn, Connecticut. He graduated at the Harvard Divinity School in 1833, and in Sep- tember of that year preached in Leicester to a new Unitarian society which had been incor- porated early that year. On August 12, 1834, a church was dedicated, and Mr. May was permanently engaged to preach in June of that year, August 14, following he was ordain- ed and installed. In 1843 he was instrumental in calling the British Unitarians to support the American anti-slavery movement and enlisting the cooperation of Dr. John B. Estlin and Rev. George Armstrong, of Bristol, England. In 1846 he devoted himself to the great anti- slavery movement. In 1847 he became agent for the Massachusetts Anti-slavery Society, and with the exception of about six months, when he was obliged to rest, he held the posi- tion until 1868, doing hard work as an organ- izer and public speaker. He was president of the Worcester County Division Anti-Slavery Society for several years. Hc was fifty-one ycars old when the civil war broke out, and, though exempted by age from service, used his influence for the cause of freedom to the slave. After the closc of the war he became active in the work of the Freedman's Aid Society. He served as a member of the school board of Leicester for twenty-one years, and was a trustec of Leicester Academy at the time of his death. In 1875 he was a represent- ative to the general court, and served as chair- man of the committee on federal relations, also on the labor and woman's suffrage committees. He was a strong temperance advocate, and in politics a Republican. He was a member of the American Unitarian Association, the Bos- tonian Society, thic Worcester Society of Antiquity, and vice-president of the Woman's Suffrage Society from its inception. In June,

II25

1898, he became the senior alumnus of the Harvard Divinity School.

His home was situated on Leicester Hill, commanding a broad, picturesque view. Mr. May's eighty-fifth birthday was celebrated, and made especially touching by the sentiment ex- pressed by one and all. The school children brought him an offering of Easter lilies, and his fellow townsmen presented him an album containing letters of congratulation and tri- butes from scores of his old friends and co- workers on both sides of the Atlantic. It is doubtful if he left any heirloom to his children which he prized more than this beautiful sheaf of love and reverence.

He married, November 11, 1835, Sarah Rus- sell, born January 5, 1813, died June 13, 1895, daughter of Nathaniel P. and Sarah (Tidd) Russell, of Boston. She was a pupil of George B. Emerson, LL. D.

When sixteen years of age he entered the dry goods jobbing busi- ness as a boy, remaining four years, when he went to the East Indies. After residing two years in the East Indies he entered the naval service of the United States in 1861, soon after the civil war broke out, as assistant paymaster, but his commission was not signed by Presi- dent Lincoln until February, 1862. He was on the gunboat "Unadilla," of Admiral Du- pont's squadron, in the five-hour action at Port Royal, when two Confederate forts were cap- tured.

In 1875 he was commissioned pay- inspector of the navy by President Grant, and was ordered to sea on the "Hartford." 'After a long cruise he was assigned to shore duty,

and was stationed at various navy yards on the Atlantic coast until the time of his retire- ment, in 1900, with the rank of pay director. He won the friendship and esteem of his fellow-officers in the navy by his long, faith- ful and efficient service, and to an unusual de- gree possessed the confidence and appreciation of his superiors. Since his retirement he has made his home at Jamaica Plain, in the city of Boston, where he has many friends, enjoying well-earned leisure from the active duties of life. In politics he has always been a Repub- lican, though barred by his profession from taking an active part in political affairs or aspiring to public office.
