22. CHASE? [12] (Jonathan", Abraham,5 etc.), was physically a noble specimen of a man, and one who always stood high in the affairs of his native town, both civil and ecclesiastical. The Revolutionary stories he used to hear from his grandfather. father, and numerous uncles on both sides, who were in the war together, made a deep impression on his youthful mind ; " he seeined to be almost among those scenes himself," and was thus prepared to act the most prominent part of any of his townsmen in the service of 1814, leailing the light infantry company. as its captain, to Portsmouth (see War History).

THE PHILBRICK OR PHILBROOK FAMILIES. THREE BRANCHES. - I.


The name is spelled " Philbrook " by some of the branches in San- boruton, who strongly urge that as original and correct ; others insist as strennously upon " Philbrick," which has more authority from the old records.
