under the pastorate of Rev. Milton Badger, a sermon of Dr Lyman Beecher's, on the sovereignty of God, being especially instrumental in bringing him into the light and liberty of the gospel. He graduated at Dartmouth College, in 1836, ranking well as a scholar, and at the Andover Theological Seminary, in 1840, having spent one year teaeh- ing, in the mean time, at Dunkirk, N. Y. Was m. April 10, 1837, to Mary P., dau. of Dea. Pasehal Abbott (see "Abbott Families"). Ilis first settlement was at Brentwood, from Nov. 4, 1841, till May 12, 1852, when he repaired immediately to Sanbornton, and commenced his labors on the following Sabbath. lustalled June 24, 1852. An ardent attaclunent grew up between him and the people, which cou- tinned unabated till severed by his death, April 21, 1865, in his 51st year, after mouths of prostration and suffering. "Our pastor," and " I shall rise again," are upon his tombstone. He was a sound theo- logian, - dwelling with much love and earnestness upon the doctrines of grace, - an unusually attractive preacher, and an ardeut patriot. "The banner of the eross was first in his esteem, and next the stars and stripes." Sixty members were added to the church during his ministry. His last most deeply affecting interview with his people was at Communion, on the first Sabbath of March, 1865, soon after a "wonderful revelation of the Divine Redeemer " to him on that morn- ing, after which he was " wholly weuned from earth " and all its aux- ieties, so that, to the closing hour of life, his " peace was as a river." Mrs. B. was a woman of rare intelligence, amiability, and excellence of character, a model pastor's wife, and, though afflicted with alnost total blindness during her last years, she ever seemed cheerful and resigned. She followed her lamented husband Sept. 9, 1868, ac. 54-3. Their Sanbornton home was the old Conner place, near the Square. Children :
