DEA. FROTHINGHAM AND DEA. MILLER.
IN connection with Dea. Larkin, it was my intention to insert some notices of these truly excellent men. I have not, however, been able to find any biographical or obituary notices of them, and I distrust my power of conveying the impression which has been left upon my mind by what I have heard respecting them. Dea. Frothingham was a man of grave deportment and sterling integrity. 'The weekly church prayer-meeting was held in his house for a period of twenty years. Dea. Miller was distinguished for the cheerfulness of his disposition and the alacrity with which he engaged in works of charity. As a member and officer of the church, he was greatly beloved. Possessed of the social virtues in an eminent degree, he was fond of visiting his fellow members in the church ; and his visits were always looked for with interest, and remembered with pleasure. I have been very much impressed by the manner in which all classes of the community-the old and the young-the serious and the gay-and even the irreligious speak of him. He seems to have won the esteem, and in no small degree, the affection of all. He lived without reproach, and died with- out an enemy-an excellent example for office-bearers in the house of God. " They that have used the office of a deacon well, purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus."
A paper, bearing the title of " Alford Memoir," furnished by the late Joseph Tufts, Esq., of Charlestown, has been loaned me by Rev. Dr. Jenks ; and from it I am permitted to make the following extracts.
The Honorable John Alford, Esq., commonly called Col. Alford, died in Charlestown, October 1, 1761, aged seventy-six. His mansion house stood

at the corner on the northwest side of the road that leads from the Concord road to Malden bridge. The house was large and elegant. It stood a little back from the road, and in front of it was a flower-garden, enclosed with a brick wall with a wooden fence on the top of it. A person, then a child, recollects gathering tulips and other flowers among the ruins of the house. An ancient mulberry tree near by, on the land of Mr. Archibald Babcock, is now the only remnant of this once splendid seat.
Col. Alford owned upwards of seven thousand acres of land in the county of Gloucester, in New Jersey. From his having accounts to settle with people of London, it is probable he was a merchant. He bequeathed up- wards of £600 to Harvard College, and also £400 to New Jersey College. Besides the funds on which is founded the professorship in Harvard College, he gave $9,000 exclusively for the instruction and 'gospelizing of the Indians.' 1 A sum was also left for charities, to be distributed by Rev. Dr. Cooper and others; and accordingly, the executor paid £20 to Rev. Mr. Webster, of Salisbury, whose house was burnt; to a man who suffered by lightning, £2; and £7 10 to Rev. Ezra Carpenter, 'a poor minister.' Judge Trowbridge and Richard Carey were executors to Mr. Alford's will, but the latter only acted, taking advice of the former. A letter of John Locke, the celebrated author of the " Essay on the Understanding," written to John Alford, Esq., father of Col. Alford, is published in the Christian Dis- ciple, for July, 1818.
The following extracts from Sewall's manuscript journal, communicated to me by my kind friend Rev. Samuel Sewall, are too interesting to be omitted, and are therefore introduced, although out of their proper place.
"October 13, 1703. Capt. Richard Sprague is buried. Mr. Russell, Capt. Hayman, Capt. Belcher, Mr. Leverett, Capt. Cary, Capt. Fowl, bearers. Is buried in Mr. Morton's tomb. I was there. Most of the scholars, Joseph for one. My gloves were too little. I gave them him. Governor there.
" 1717, August 20. Went to the funeral of Mrs. Mary Hayman, whose maiden name was Anderson. Her first husband's name was Lynde, by whom she had Mrs. Toft (Tufts?); her second, Rev. Thomas Shepard, by whom she had Mrs. Smith; her third husband was Samuel Hayman, Esq., whose widow she was: died in the sixty-seventh year of her age. Was buried in her husband's (Shepard's) tomb, which she built for him as I was told. Bearers, John Usher, Esq., Elisha Hutchinson, Esq .; Samuel Sewall, Edward Brom- field, Esq .; Mr. Leverett, president, John Clark, Esq. Has the reputation of a pious gentlewoman.
" 1725, Monday, May 24. Went to Charlestown, where I heard of the death of Madam Bradstreet. Tuesday, May 25. Went to Madam Brad- street's funeral. Bearers, Dr. Mather, Mr. Colman ; Mr. Nathaniel Williams, Mr. Peter Thacher, of Boston ; Mr. Appleton, Mr. Abbot. Mr. Bradstreet thanked me as he went from the grave. Madam Russell showed me great curtesie. I went and sat in her house before I went to the house of mourn- ing. Mr. Colman and Webb came in and sat with me. Had gloves at the funeral. Cousin Wendell rode home with me in my calash, being somewhat lame."
