HENRY, b. Sep. 18, 1732, was sent to school in Scotland, but on coming of age joined his father in Madeira, where he engaged as partner in the business,-He indulged somewhat his literary tastes, as appears from his father's message to Hannah Moore to send " Henry's MS. translation of Montes- " quieu's Considerations on the Causes of the Rise and Decay " of the Roman Empire : it is a valuable book and Henry " designing to translate the whole, his having that again will " save him a good deal of trouble in translating it over " again." Henry Hill returned to America about 1763, and represented in Philadelphia the family firm of Hill, Bisset, & Co. and Hill, Lamar, & Bisset, in the wine trade, living in considerable style. He built for his city residence the large house on Fourth St. between Union and Cypress Alley (after his death purchased by Dr. Philip Syng Physick, and since occupied by the latter and his descendants); and in 1770 Thomas Lamar, congratulating him on the purchase of a large tract of land, hopes that he will call it Hilltown or Hillington, "to give a significant title to a dukedom in future times, as will in all probability be the case." The idea of a dukedom, however, did not prevent Hill from actively supporting the Patriot cause during the Revolution. He was one of the original members of the City Troop. He was made Colonel of the 4th Penna. Regiment in Nov., 1776. He took part in the Convention which gave Penn- sylvania the Constitution which succeeded the Proprietary government, and for several years served in the Assem- bly. He d. Sep. 15, 1798. He m.
