I.

II. Samuel, son of Amos1, b. 1794, April 25; m. 1823, May 23, Alice Stearns of Billerica, Mass. They were a worthy couple, honest, original, kind-hearted; they won the respect and confidence of all, and were known throughout the town as "Uncle Sam " and "Aunt Alice." Always loyal to church services, the social prayer meet- ing never seemed dull when he was speaking, even though prayer and exhortation were often quaintly mingled. The earnest originality of it all left an impression upon his hearers not soon forgotten. A Sunday-school pupil wrote in her diary, 1883, Dec. 30, " The bell tolled to-day for Uncle Sam while Sunday-school was in session. He was 89 yrs., 8 mos., the oldest man in town." "Aunt Alice " d. 1874, May 31. They had no ch. An adopted son, Willard, b. -; m. Martha Cheever of Bedford, who now res., a widow, in the Old Ladies' Home at Lynn, Mass.
"UNCLE SAM" AND "AUNT ALICE" GARDNER.
Among the best-known persons in Bedford for the greater part of the past century, were "Uncle Sam " and "Aunt Alice" Gardner. There were no more kind-hearted people than they, always solicitous for the welfare of others. Eccentric in many respects, and ever active, no one who knew Bedford in their day was without intimate knowledge of them.
Samuel Gardner was the son of Amos and Phebe (Terrill) Gardner. He was born here 1794, April 25, and always lived in the town. As a young man he worked for Isaac Riddle, mostly as an ox teamster. He made frequent trips to Boston with his team, freighting goods overland. He became acquainted with Alice Stearns, who came from Billerica, Mass., to do housework for Mr. Riddle, and they were married 1823, May 23. The fiftieth anniversary of their wedding was duly observed by their friends calling upon them and leaving with them many substantial tokens of appreciation.
They took up their residence after marriage upon a small farm, north of the Center, where by prudence and industry they earned a substantial livelihood for many years. The care of the farm did not take all of his time, but Mr. Gardner found plenty of extra labor among the neighbors, as he was always a good and trusty helper. When the daughters of Matthew Patten became infirm, they arranged with this worthy couple to come and care for them and their estate, which they did until the death of the former. Following that, they moved to the house near where the railroad station now stands, and there they rounded out their long career. "Aunt Alice " died 1874, May 31, and " Uncle Sam," 1883, Dec. 30.
They were plain, but thoroughly good people, most generous to their fellow-men. When it was the practice to seek places for boarding the "town poor," before the "farm " was purchased, their home was the most sought by the unfortunates, and such inmates were most kindly cared for. Others not altogether dependent, frequently arranged it to be cared for by this worthy couple, as it was never difficult to make the terms. Their house was not infrequently alluded to as "the home of the unfortunate." No one was ever turned from their door in hunger or in need. They were happy in their philanthropy, about which they were always engaged.
"Uncle Sam " became converted in the great religious revival of 1831,

and after that was most devoted to the Church and the cause. He was always at meeting, unless kept away by sickness, and took as lively an interest in the outlying district meetings and the prayer meeting. His prayers were of the most fervent kind, and his exhortations original and impressive. At the time of his death, former pastors of the church wrote interesting letters of appreciation, in which they referred to him as their most efficient helper in the prosecution of their work. It was in connec- tion with his work for Christianity that his eccentricities were most marked and are best remembered. He had not read extensively outside the Holy Scriptures, but with the Bible he was thoroughly familiar. He would relate incidents of the Bible with singular minuteness and fidelity to the text, expounding them in his own original but effective way. His sayings were quaint, oftentimes amusing, but always made with an earnestness that could not be mistaken. His funeral was held at the church, the Rev. Dr. Cyrus W. Wallace, who had joined the church when he did, preaching the sermon.
"Aunt Alice " was in every way a real helpmeet to her husband. She was as eccentric in her way as was he in his, and of as generous impulses, and as devoted a Christian.
GARDNER.
I. John Gardner came to Bedford from Norfolk Co., Mass., previous to the Revolutionary war, and was one of the soldiers who went from this town to serve their country in that struggle for inde- pendence. He was probably of English extraction, judging from the fact that English colonists settled in Norfolk Co., Mass., and also from the characteristics of his descendants. His wife's name is not known, and but one son, Ezekiel2.
II. Ezekiel, son of John1, was the second teacher of music in town, the first being John Orr, Esq. He attempted to give his pupils some idea of time, though no books were used except a few tunes pricked off by himself, with the bass and air only. A book con- taining these tunes, bears date of 1782. He was appointed by the town to serve as chorister or conductor of the large choir which rendered music for all religious services. This was when the church work was supported by public taxation, and it is recorded that he served the town very acceptably. He m. Miss Chubbuck, who also came from the Massachusetts colonies.

I. John served seven years in the Revolutionary war. During this period a man of his company had been mysteriously shot for four nights in succession while on picket duty. On the fifth day, when his name was called as the sentinel for that night, "his knees fairly smote together," but he would not flinch from doing his duty. As darkness began to deepen a bear appeared to be slowly approaching; watching it carefully, he at last took aim and fired-when lo! a dead Indian lay before him, who, under cover of a bear skin, had plotted to take his life, as he had the lives of the four men who preceded him.
