Deus revertat omen. Friday Dec. 22, this day after the fast he was interred. Bearers, Rev Nehemiah Walker, Mr Jos Baxter, Mr John Swift, Mr Samuel Hunt, Mr Jos Sewell Mr Thos Prince. I was inclined before, & having a pair of gloves sent me, I determined to go to the funeral if the weather proved favorable, which it did & I hired Blakes coach with four horses, My son, Mr Cooper & Mr Prince went with me- refreshed them with meat & drink, got thither about half past one, & I was - to see triumphed over my dear friend. I rode in my coach to the burrying place, not being able to get nearer by reason of the many horses. From thence went directly to the Hill where the smiths shop & got home very comfortably & easily the ground being mollified. but when I came to my own gate, going I fell down, a board slipped under my feet, my right leg raid off the skin & put me in a great deal of pain especially when I was rubbed with rum, Mr Walter prayed before the corps was carried out. Had gloves & a ring given me. Mr Miller of the Chh of England was there. At this funeral I heard of the death of my good friend Capt. Nat. Niles. I have now been at the fune- rals of four of my Class Mates, that morning the Rev Williams Adams of Dedham.


APPENDIX C.


THE WATCH OF REV. PETER THACHER, OF MILTON, MASS.


D URING the visit of Mr. Thacher in England, in 1676, a few years after his graduation, he was presented with a silver watch by Thomas Planner, of London, who was a member of the famous guild of goldsmiths in that city, and was the maker of the watch. It is regarded as a great curiosity, and is now deposited in the cabinet of the Bostonian Society in the Old State House, in Boston. On the face is inscribed, " Planner, London." Within it is engraved : -


THO: PLANNER, 319, LONDON.


It is considerably more than twice the thickness of modern watches. Outside the circle on the face, upon which the hours are marked in Roman numerals, is another, upon which the minutes are engraved in figures, "5" over the hour "I," and so increasing by five each hour, the figures over "XII " being " 60."


This watch came to Rev. Peter Thacher, of Attleborough, 1716-1785 (H. C. 1737), grandson of Rev. Peter, of Milton, from his father, Rev. Peter, of Middleborough, 1688-1744 (H. C. 1706), and has descended through this line of Attleborough Thachers to Mr. Peter Thacher, a native of Cleveland, Ohio, now of Lake Masy, Fla., who presented it to the Bostonian Society. It may well be considered a relic of a Bostonian, as Rev. Peter Thacher, after his marriage with Theodora Oxenbridge, resided a number of years in Boston previous to his settlement at Milton.


A gentleman now living saw this watch in the possession of the second Deacon Peter Thacher, of Attleborough, grandson of Rev. Peter, of Attleborough, in 1853. This Deacon Peter was the grandfather of the donor, Peter, of Florida. He then wore


659


APPENDIX C.


it on his person, and exhibited it to this gentleman, relating its history.


It has often been said of this watch, that, unlike most watches, "it has never been bought or sold."
