erected a monument to his memory, "in grateful remembrance," says the inscription, " of the exemplary piety and faithful ministerial labors." "Mr. Clary," said Rev. Jonathan French in his funeral sermon, "was a great blessing to Dover, and prepared the way for his successor to labor advantageously." "His sermons," wrote Asa A. Tufts, in the record, "were ably written ; his piety elevated ; his doctrine sound ; his disposition kind and forgiving, and his mind remarkably pure. He sowed much good seed in this place, and his memory is cherished with great affection by many here."
Rev. Timothy Farrar Clary, now of Boston, Mass., is his son.

D., fifteenth minister, son of Nathaniel and Anna (Kellogg) Winslow, was born in Williston, Vt., 30 October 1799 ; graduated at Yale College in 1825, and Yale Divinity School in 1828.

Putnam, of Portsmouth; right hand of fellowship, by Rev. Robert Page, of Durham; address to the people, by Rev. David Sanford, of Newmarket; and concluding prayer, by Rev. Isaac Willey, of Rochester.
In the midst of a promising revival his health failed, and he was dismissed 20 November 1831. He was installed pastor of Bowdoin street Church, Boston, Mass., 26 September 1832, and dismissed in March 1844. In 1854, he accepted the pastorate of the Presbyterian church, Geneva, N.

V. DESCENDANTS FROM THE OLD STOCK.
It may be interesting, and perhaps valuable, to note what persons who were members of this parish more than two hundred years ago are represented by descendants in the present congregation, either in lineal male descent, or where known, through female lines. I will, there- fore, record the names of persons actually holding pews or parts of pews ; in most cases heads of families. Limiting the list to those who are pew-holders in this house omits, of course, many who reside in this city.
The present pew-holders,1 23 October 1883, with the number of the pew,2 are as follows, the maiden surname of married women being also given : -
3. Miss Laura Beach.
Mrs. Arabella Wells, m. n.3 Var- ney.
4. Mrs. Charles Ham, m. n. Bartlett. Freeman Hussey.
5. Parkman Burley. Charles II. Prime.
6. Nathaniel C. Hobbs.
7. Rev. Alonzo II. Quint, D. D. John B. Stevens, jr.
8. John Scott.
9. Joshua Varney.
10. George W. Benn.
11. John J. Hanson.
I I am greatly indebted to Dr. Charles A. Fairbanks in the preparation of this list ; many names being of persons to whom parts of pews were sublet ; and perhaps some names are still left out.
2 The numbering of pews begins at the southwest corner of the house, follows the line of pews along the south side, goes up and down the south centre aisle, up and down the north centre aisle, and up the north line of pews to the northwest corner ; one hundred and sixty-four. In the gallery, the numbers begin at the southwest corner and proceed around the church to the northwest corner, - fifty-eight pews. Pews 1, 2, 54, 55, 56, 57, 108, 110, 112, 114, 115, and 116 are generally open pews, mostly used by the deacons in certain services.
$ "m. n." means maiden surname.
