Capt. Petty's father, Joseph, was in a scouting party against Indians near what is now Northfield, Mass., in May, 1748; being wounded and unable to travel, he was left beside a spring to live if he could until help came. Two days after Capt. Phineas Stevens, afterwards of Charlestown. N. H., with a party from Fort Dummer, made search but found no trace. In June. Lieutenant Hunt went with fifteen men from Northfield "to bury Sergeant Petty." Presumably they did so. Reuben, the subject, was Sergeant Petty's oldest son, born July 31, 1735. He served in the French and Indian wars, was sergeant and was taken prisoner at Fort William Henry, Ang. 9. 1757. He married Lydia Field, and had seven children prior to 1772. about which time he probably came to Claremont.

Putnam Chester and Elisha, "sons of the late Capt. Solomon Putnam who. on the morning of the 29th of January, 1814, in the same bed were found suffocated. A kettle of common coals having been placed in their room for comfort proved the fatal instrument of their death ; the former in the 27th. the latter in the 19th year of his age.


"How many roses perish in their bloom. How many suns alas go down at noon."


This fatality occurred in the house now owned and occupied by Deacon James Piper. The house had been newly finished and plastered, or an ad- dition thereto, and because of its dampness the coals of fire were placed in the room. The two parties were uncles of Solomon Putnam now of Weathersfield, Vt.
