(VIII) William Henry Dexter, son of John Bradford Dexter (7), was born January II, 1823, at Charlton. He attended the Charlton public schools, and at the age of fourteen entered his father's employ as clerk in the country storc. He left home to take a similar position at Burrillville, Rhode Island, where he worked until he was seven- teen, when he returned to the employ of his father. The following year he became a clerk in a general merchandise house in Boston. In 1846 he started in business on his own account, having a thorough knowledge of business and the requisite capital. His store was located on Southbridge street. Worces- ter, the first grocery store in that city not located on Main street. This enterprise was successfully conducted by him for five years. after which he entered into the wholesale and retail flour and grain business, with headquarters at the corner of Main and Pleasant streets, and there he laid the founda- tions of his fortune. Three years later he found larger quarters necessary, and built a four-story block at Franklin Square on land bought of Judge Charles Allen. He built up the largest and most flourish- ing business in his line in the county, and always enjoyed a reputation for integrity and business sagacity. In 1877, having acquired a competence. he sold his flour and grain store to Holbrook & Co., and gave his entire attention to his real estate investments and to the further development of Franklin Square, where he built several business blocks. He has another block on the corner of Main street and Allen Court. Mr. Dexter was in- terested in his younger days in city affairs, and from 1873 to 1878 he was a member of the commnon council, and for three years on the school board. He was one of the organizers of the First National Bank, which has lately been amalgamated with the

Worcester Trust Company, was a director for twen- ty-four years, and vice-president two years.

Mr. Dexter is best known for his philanthropy. Since 1874 he has contributed generously to the funds of Worcester Academy, of which he has been trustce and treasurer. He gave the building named for him, Dexter Hall, at Worcester Academy, in 1892, and has given liberally to the Baptist Church, as well as large sums to educational institutions. He gave to his native town the Dexter Memorial Building, in which its library and town hall are located.

He married, February 2, 1848, at Thompson, Connecticut, Eliza Adeline Foss, who was born Att- gust 3, 1824, at Wayne, Maine, daughter of Phineas and Dorothy (Jenkins) Foss. Their only child was: Carrie Eliza, born April 6, 1852, at Worcester : died there August 13, 1852. Mrs. Dexter died January 20, 1907, aged eighty-two years, five months and seven days. The funeral was held with services at 2 o'clock in the First Baptist church, of which she was one of the oldest members. The Rev. Dr. Lemuel Call Barnes, pastor of the church, officiated and the body was placed in the vault in the family lot which is in Hope cemetery. Mrs. Dexter's death occurred in the home of the couple, Main and Chariton streets, and was due to a general de- cline in old age. She had been in failing health for several months and confined to bed the last three weeks. Mrs. Dexter was born at Wayne hill, in the town of Wayne, Maine. She was married in 1848 to William H. Dexter and they would have observed the fifty-ninth anniversary of their mar- riage in February had she lived. In the death of Mrs. Dexter the First Baptist Church loses one of the first two persons to be baptized as members, the other being her husband. Mrs. Dexter was prob- ably the only woman in Worcester who received an invitation to attend the wedding of Mr. and Mrs. John D. Rockefeller, at Cleveland. Mr. and Mrs. Dexter sat at the head table at the wedding dinner. They also received invitations when John D. Rocke- feller, Jr., was married to the daughter of the Hon. Nelson T. Aldrich, of Rhode Island. Mrs. Dexter and Mrs. Rockefeller were classmates at the Oread Institute, and spent many vacations together. Mrs. Dexter was very fond of driving and when in health took daily drives with her husband. They occupied the same pew in the First Baptist Church for more than half a century. Mr. Dexter cele- brated his eighty-fourth birthday January 11. Mr. Dexter recently contributed $3,500 to the Rev. Mc Leod Ilarvey for the First Presbyterian Church, which is to buy the First Baptist cdifice when the congregation moves into the new building, and at that time he said he would like to retain the pew so that they could drop in at any time. Mrs. Dex- ter's father was well-to-do and there was no neces- sity for her to leave home or to work for her own livelihood but she was of an independent spirit and left home at the age of fourteen to work in a Saco Maine, mill. While there she attended a night school, as she was ambitions for an education, and studied nights while she worked days. She won the first prize for scholarship, supporting herself en- tirely, and went to Boston, and worked at dress- making for some of the old Beacon street families. On February 29, 1848, the day Worcester became a city, she was married to Mr. Dexter. They came to Worcester and have lived here ever since. They had one daughter, Carrie Eliza, born April 6. 1852, and dying August 13 of the same year. During his wife's illness Mr. Dexter passed a great part of his time at her bedside, leaving the care of his busi- ness affairs to others. ller home and the grounds

surrounding it were a source of great pride and care to Mrs. Dexter and those who passed the house during the summer could not help remarking the anique arrangement of the lawn on the Main street side. A fountain plays in the central part and tubs of plants stand about it in warm weather. A de- sire that the girls of her native state should have educational advantages not to be had when she was a girl impelled Mrs. Dexter to give the trustees of Colby University, Waterville, Maine, a hall known as Foss hall, to be used by the Maine girls who at- tend the university. Mr. Dexter said that Mrs. Dex- ter often had remarked that she believed the hap- piest day of her life was that on which she gave the keys of the new building to the superintendent of the college.

WILLIS HARKNESS WHITE. Thomas White (I), the founder of that branch of the White fam- ily from which Willis Harkness White, of Ux- bridge, Massachusetts, descends, was born in Eng- fat d, 1599. This date is determined from his own testimony given October 21, 1659. when he gave his age as sixty years. He settled at Weymouth, Massa- chusetts, in 1624, or shortly afterward, being among the pioneers to settle in that neighborhood. On May 3. 1636, he was made a freeman. He was a carpenter by trade, but found time to interest him- self in the cause of public good, being a proprietor of the town of Weymouth in 1643, and acting as deputy to the general court in 1636, 1637, 1657 and 1670. Thomas White died August, 1679. His will, dated July 5, 1679, witnessed by Thomas Dyer, who was later a resident of Mendon, Massachusetts, was proved August 28, 1679. In this will he made be- quests to his sons Joseph, Samuel, Thomas, Ebenezer and his daughter Hannah ; to his grandchildren Lydia, Mary and Ebenezer White and Hannah Baxter ;to pas- tor Samuel Torrey and elder Edward Bates.

He with nine others came from Weymouth. while the other thirteen came from Braintree. Captain Jo- seph White's family was one of fifteen original fam- ilies which were the first actual settlers in the town of Mendon. then called Nipmuck. His large land holdings, which he drew as pioneer settler, placed him at the head of the tax lists from 1691 to 1695. Following the example of his father, he interested himself in the public welfare. He was a leading citizen in the new town of Mendon, serving as a town officer and on various committees. We hear of him December 1, 1669, as one of a committee to arrange with the Rev. Mr. Emerson to settle in Mendon. He married Lydia Rogers, daughter of elder John Rogers, September 9 (or 19). She died May 8. 1727. He died March 23, 1706.

His land holdings were not confined to Mendon alone. for on January 14, 1728, he deeded lands in Uxbridge, to his son Samuel. This land, about eighteen acres, adjoining his son Samuel's farm, according to his own statement, was all he had left in that town In the same instrument he deeded his right to six acres of undivided lands lying in Uxbridge. Later, April 1, 1744, he deeded more land to his son Sam- uel. In this deed he gave his residence as Ux- bridge, and his son's residence as Mendon; this may be an error on the part of the conveyancer. He married Mehitable She died in Mendon, September 27, 1704.
