HENRY MELLEN. Richard Mellen (1), the immigrant ancestor of Henry Mellen, was one of the early settlers of Charlestown, Massachusetts. He was admitted a freeman September 7, 1639, and had doubtless been in the colony for several years be- fore that. He removed to Weymouth in 1642 or 1643, and probably did not live long afterward. Savage calls attention to the difficulty of tracing the name because of the great variety of spelling found in the records. It is found spelled Mellins, Mullins, Mal- lins, Melling, Melen, and even Meles. He had a land grant in Weymouth in 1642 and 1641 on the back side of Kingoak Hill, but removed from there or died soon after, as his name does not appear again on the records.

294

WORCESTER COUNTY

chusetts, June 10, 1739. He married Elizabeth Rus- sell, daughter of James Russell, of Holliston, a man of distinction. Her brother, Jonathan, was a noted inan, ambassador to Sweden, and holding other im- portant positions. Colonel Mellen went into the revolutionary war a private and was mustered out a colonel. He marched in Captain Jesse Eames' company from Framingham to Lexington and fought during the day, April 19, 1775. He was captain of a company in Colonel Ward's regiment at the bat- tle of Bunker Hill. He soon afterward entered the Continental line and was major, commanding the Twenty-first Regiment in 1776. He was promoted lieutenant-colonel in Colonel James Wesson's reg- iment in January, 1777, and was stationed at Hud- son river, New York, and served faithfully in various responsible positions as lieutenant-colonel for four years. He was discharged January 1, 1781. He served on Washington's staff and be- came a friend, dining often with the general. He was officer of the day October 2, 1780, when Andre was hanged for a spy. He carried Andre's message to Washington, asking that he he shot in- stead of hanged. Washington's reply "The laws of War forbid it," must have been taken to the condemned man by Colonel Mellen. Another im- portant service was in taking two hundred men and supplies safely to Fort Schuyler previous to the attack of Burgoyne.

Like most of the Continental officers Colonel Mellen returned home worn out in health, poor in property and cheered only by wordy honors and promises of compensation never fulfilled. It is hard to realize the truth in some of these cases. He finally lost heart and broke down completely dur- ing the last years of his life, mentally as well as physically. He lived fourteen years at Milford and fourteen at Mendon, where he died September 27, 1812, aged seventy-three years. His widow Eliza- beth died June 19, 1830, aged ninety years.

THE AMERICAN LINE.

(XV) John Cary, son of William Cary (14), was born in Bristol, Somersetshire, England. He came to New England about 1634. His brother James settled in Charlestown and his brother Miles near Jamestown, Virginia. A family record made by one of his grandsons states that when a youth the immigrant, John Cary, was sent by his father to France to perfect his education and that while he was absent his father died. On returning home to Somersetshire he differed with his brothers in the settlement of their father's estate, finally com- promising by taking one hundred pounds as his share and immediately sailed for America. John Cary was among the original settlers of Duxbury and Bridgewater, and his name is in the original grant as well as in the subsequent Indian deed. He was elected constable of Bridgewater in 1656, the first and only officer elected in the town that year, the first after its incorporation. He was elected the first town clerk and held the office until 1681. In 1656 he was one of the ten freemen of the town. In 1677 Deacon Willis and John Cary were ap- pointed "to take in all the charges of the late war (King Philip's) since last June and the expenses of the scouts before and since June."
