Tradition says his father was Josiah, who came from Scotland, but a search has not yet veri- fied it. Eecords have been found of a Josiah, son of John named in will, also of brothers Orlando and Ebenezer— and as tradition also said he had brothers so named it is strange that the will of John is found containing these brothers and no will of Josiah— however, it does not change the record of descendants and I will proceed and in mean time ' ' hunt up, ' ' if possible, ' ' the josiah. ' ' A great gr. son of Josiah sends me the following: "Col. Josiah Mack, 2d, built the house that David Mack tore down. It was occupied by the Col. and his father, Col. Josiah Mack, -1st, who came from Lyme to Hebron and lived near the Green, on land now, 1898, owned by Horace Porter, where his new barn stands, and lived there till he was an old man, then he and his wife came to Gilead, to live with his son Col. Josiah, 2d, and both died there and were buried in Gilead Cemetery. The first Col. Josiah was at storming of Quebec. The second Josiah was Col. in the Revolutionary War. The 2d Col. built first a log house, near Josiah Buell's, on the rear end of his farm, and later built on the front of his farm. It was 160 years when David Hall Mack tore it down and erected the new one, which is thirty-one years old at this time, 1898. ' ' The above I have quoted, but it does not appear to me to be correct, unless there is a Josiah previous to the one b. in LjTne, Conn., in 1693. It is recorded that Josiah and Or- lando, brothers, removed from Lyme to Hebron in Spring of 1720, also that a Josiah Mack bought land in Lyme in 1716, sold the same and was given ten acres by his father- in-law in 1719. 6 Mack Genealogy. Eev. Samuel Peters (the Tory) in Ms "History of Heb- ron" (1822) mentions Josiah and Orlando Mack among the first settlers. David Barber in his "Antiquities of Hebron" (1795- 1800) says "Josiah and Orlander Mack," were from Lyme. In July, 1902, the records were searched and John Mack must be the ancestor of those in Lyme, Conn., and he so appears in this book— and Josiah is his son— thus mak- ing D. W. Patterson's assertion true, "Mrs. Martin makes a great mistake if she names Josiah as the first — John Mack was the first in Lyme, Conn., and not Josiah— I KNOW IT." RESULT OF SEARCH, JULY, 1902. The first of the name in Lyme, Conn. D. Williams Patterson (recognized as authority especi- ally for certain towns iti Connecticut) wrote, "I know that Col. David Mack was descended from John Mack of Lyme. Do not forget that the first Mack of that place was John, not Josiah. Of John's children, Josiah married a Peterson and settled at Hebron, Conn., and lie was grandfather of Col. David Mack. ' ' From Genealogical Register: "It is perfectly safe to say that we have had in Amer- ica during the past forty years no genealogist whose work stands so absolutely unquestioned, or whose dicta in regard to any mooted point was so unhesitatingly ac- cepted as Dr. Patterson"— David Williams Patterson, who died at his home, Newark Valley, N. Y., Nov. 18, 1892. The compiler searched and searched to prove that Josiah was the first of the name in Lyme, because of the Mack Genealogy. 7 faith she had (also her mother living with her and a granddaughter of Col. David Mack) in the account in the tract entitled "Col. David Mack, The Faithful Steward," and she thinks that tract is responsible for the error— tor such it is, as proven by the will of John Mack, a copy of which is on Page 18. The tract states that Josiah Mack was great grandfather of Col. David Mack— and who is responsible for the error who can tell"? Mack Genealogy. MACK COAT OF ARMS. This family in America is of Scottisli descent from a family of sufficient importance to have a Coat of Arms, but on account of the extra expense it will not be in the Mack Grenealogy, but by those who wish a copy suitable for framing, it can now be procured at the following prices, post-paid: Plain $1.00 each Colors and gilt (with a description of same) . .$5.00 each Address : Mrs. Sophia S.

The "paley of eight" consists of eight pales of or (gold) and gules (red). The "bend sinister" azure (sky blue ) is one of the ' ' honorable ordinaries ' ' and is formed by two parallel lines extending from the sinister chief (the upper corner of the shield which would cover the left shoulder of the person standing behind it) to the dexter base.

"Martlet." "A fictitious fabulous bird shaped like a martin or swallow and always depicted without legs, with short tufts of feather in the stead, divided in 'two parts somewhat like an erasure and forming as it were, thighs. It is the peculiar distinction of the fourth son, thereby implying, that is, these birds have no legs to alight upon, so tbe younger sons having little land to settle upon, must trust to the wings of virtue, merit, and industry, to raise and support themselves." The martlet is always sable (black). "Mullet of the first" the rowell of a spur of a five pointed star, of the first metal mentioned ; viz : gold. "Water Bouget. " A vessel anciently used by soldiers for the conveyance of water to the camp and on long inarches.

' ' Extract from a letter written by Eev. Enoch Mack, of New York City, to one of his family before 1870, speak- ing of writing a history of his parents and ancestry. He writes : ' ' We have been little aware of the nobility of our pedigree, in both the paternal and maternal lines. A man of our name in the city (his father from Grermany) when I told him our ancestry was Scotch, said, 'I can show you your Arms,' and brought out a beautiful Heraldic picture having this description and certificate written on the back of it: 'Arms of Mack or Mick, of Scotland, Paly (the stripes Tip and down on the shield) 8— Or and gules (gold and red).

McQuestion. 31 Bachellors Walk, and 27 Westmoreland Street.' " The parentheses in this quotation I put in myself as explanatory. The motto is a glorious one — and so well fitting our family. An aged kinswoman whom I found in the city has zeal- ously traced >our ancestry back to the Highlands of Scot- land and finds them noted as a very strong, brave people. On our mother's side I copied this from Lyme Town Records : "These may certify that Mr. Marvin Lord, of Lyme, in the State of Conn., was lawfully married to Miss Eme- lia Wolcott, of East Windsor, in said Conn., on the 30th day of May, 1771. Joseph Perry, Minister of the Gospel in said East Windsor. ' ' Mack Genealogy. 11 INTRODUCTION. G-enealogy,— meaning an account of a family, or of in- dividuals in a series of descendants, or a succession of families; or it is the systematic account of the origin, descent, and relations of families. It is a branch of his- torical science and is important not only in this light, but also in a personal and legal view, when by law per- sonal or family claims are to be established. The compiler has had an illustration of the latter in this record, where the only living heirs of the deceased person were first cousins and first cousins' children and she was thus by this record enabled to furnish the lawyer with a complete list of their names and addresses (in a short time), when had it not been for this record the ex- pense would have been greater and the time longer "hunt- ing" for them. The gathering of these facts by correspondence is an enormous task which can only be partially appreciated by those persons who have endeavored to send in records of a generation or two. In compiling such a work one meets with difficulties, members of same family giving different data, but in the main the data are thought to be authentic ; if not, some member of the family is responsi- ble. "Whoever has had occasion to trace his lineage back to the first settlers of the country has learned the very loose way in which family records are usually kept, and has been surprised to find how little intelligent men and women know of their ancestry. It is quite common to find persons who cannot tell the names of their grand- parents, and many who are intelligent thus far can trace no farther back. Not one in a hundred, we are safe in saying, preserves even the names of his ancestors be- yond the fourth generation. It is a duty we owe to our 12 Mack Genealogy. children, and to our children's children, to put them in possession of the names and dates in our family history with which we are familiar, and which will soon be for- gotten if not recorded." Noel Little. Further research, more time, more expense would pro- duce perhaps a volume of greater interest and more sat- isfactory, but these records collected— if not put into print now— might be forever lost to the public. If you are a descendant and your name is not here, either you or some relative is responsible. CARE OF CEMETERIES. A careless disregard for the simple unadorned graves of our ancestors (of the ancient dead), is characteristic of too many of our towns and villages. Trees, vines, weeds and undergrowth have been allowed to overrun these sacred places and to give them the appearance of waste places— abandoned. One such place I visited in 1902. I have in mind another place where the stones have become moss-covered and turf-covered and almost lost among the tangled masses of shrubbery. Here may be found names that were known, honored and revered in their day — and to whom the town is indebted. All this might be remedied, if the selectmen would but give atten- tion to the subject. A very little labor and expense some- times would brighten up these neglected spots and make them points of interest, as well as sources of gratification to the inhabitants and relatives, instead of being as now their reproach and disgrace. It has been said that every man (but I have not proved it) has two ancestors in the first ascending degree— his own parents; he has four in the second— the parents of his father and his mother ; he has eight in the third— the Mack Genealogy. 13 parents of Ms two grandf atliers and two grandmotliers ; and by the same rate of progression lie has 128 in the seventh, 1,024 in the tenth, and at the twentieth degree, or at the distance of twenty generations, every man has more than 1,000,000 .ancestors. The name Mack has been thought not to be the real name, but only a prefix to some other name as McDon- gal, McKenzie, etc. ; and that in the perilous times only the prefix was retained, as they came to this country to avoid oppression and cruel bondage and to shun persecution— but of this branch of the Mack family, it was not so— for they were a family of sufficient importance to have a Coat of Arms in Scotland— see letter, also the description of same. The motto, ' ' In spe et labore transigo vitam, ' ' was a complete type of their character— hard workers and hopeful. Our ancestors were mostly men of good estates and families, of liberal education and of large experience, and they were strict Puritans. They made conscience of things which in this day are viewed with indifference and they were strict in the gov- ernment of themselves and families to a degree which in the present generation would be intolerable. How far, in departing from them, we have departed from duty and right, is a fair subject of inquiry. "Happy is he who con- demneth not himself, in that which he alloweth." The question has been asked repeatedly— Who have the right to use the Coat of Arms? "The right in the IT. S. to bear arms is only as an heir- loom. The English laws handing the Coat of Arms down from oldest son to oldest son, etc., could not be followed with any degree of certainty in this country. If you know you are descended from a man to whom a Coat of Arms was granted— you have a right to use that Coat of Arms in this country, but not in England. The crest is "a water bouget sa." It means two water bottles, and that our ancestor was brave, and while the castle was in 14: Mack Genealogy. state of siege, went outside and filled these bottles with, water for those within. How did our ancestors accumulate a fortune? How? by industry and economy, prudent management, and not by miserly hoarding, but by generous hospitality and not wasteful extravagance, and they always each year spent less than they earned. In early times, many names were synonymous— Sarah and Sally, Mary and Molly and Polly— Elizabeth, Eliza and Betsey— Abigail, Nabby and Abiah. Some names ap- plied to both males and females, as Love — Experience — Hope— Melatiah— Abiel, etc. I desire here gratefully to acknowledge assistance of all who have so cheerfully aided, making especial men- tion of Miss Ida VanAuken, Mrs. Frederic A. Barker, Miss Mary Ellis, S. M. Fox, John R. Gilbert, Alden Smith, W. 0. Sumner, C. F., Sumner, M. D., Mrs. E. L. Tarbox, Ellen R. Mack, Mrs. Frances Mack Mann, Silas W. Mack. HUNTING UP ANCESTORS. I.

Nothing else has before convinced the compiler of this fact, for the family, one branch Josiah, had it recorded from what was supposed authority— that Josiah came from Scotland, and was the first ancestor, but as Josiah, born in Lyme, 1693, was son of John— as proven by the will— one has to be convinced against one's will and 7iot of the same opinion still.

The First Baptist church of East Lyme originated in a small company of Congregational Separates, who became Baptists, and he was ordained pastor Jany. 12, 1749, and a meeting house was erected in 1755. ' ' The first records to be found commence in 1752 from which time a faithful account of their walk has been pre- served.

If Ezra was dead in 1775 as was Hezekiah, then these children named must have been children of another Ezra Mack, so that this record of marriage and names of children cannot be considered authentic. The names in will of children of Ezra must be correct.

Mack, Esq., of Monterey, Cat.) Prefatory Note. Only a few weeks remaining before the publication of this book, the fact of its compilation was, at that late date, first brought to my attention. Let- ters written over twenty-five years ago by Mrs. Frederic A. Barker, of Keene, N. H., to my cousin, the late Wm. P. Mack, of Stanstead, P. Q., Canada, fell into my hands and were the means of opening up a correspondence reveal- ing the existence of the "Genealogy of the Mack Family." Furthermore, I ascertained that though so much pains- taking investigation had been spent upon the book, bring- ing to light information of great value and reaching back to the coming, in the seventeenth century, of the first to bear that name to the shores of New England, there was but little -known concerning the descendants of his grand- son, Elder Ebenezer Mack, who died in 1792. Fortunately, I had on hand considerable of the data needed to supply the omission. So far as my purpose in collecting it is concerned, it has been recreation during leisure hours and I have always cherished the desire of eventually putting it into permanent form as a tribute of respect to the memory of the departed and for the in- formation and inspiration of their living descendants. To Wilham Mack (1788-1872) I am indebted for a small, home-made, pocket, memorandum book, filled with names and dates of birth, marriage and death, all in his own handwriting, of the members of his grandfather's fam- ily and of many of their descendants living in his day. That most of the information here given concerns only descendants of Silas Mack (1755-1836) and especially those through his son of same name, is not because of any desire on my part to pay marked attention to my own line of descent, but because of the brief time at my dis- posal and the difficulty of getting information as relation- Mack Genealogy. 63 ship becomes more distant. Whether or not, at some fu- ture date, I may endeavor to furnish a complete Hst of descendants of Elder Ebenezer Mack, it seems better now to take the opportunity kindly given to aid in making com- plete so valuable a book than to risk the loss of much of the following data by the changes and unforeseen events of time. ELDER EBENEZEE MACK. In the ' * History of New London County, ' ' the following record appears in relation to Ebenezer Mack : "First Baptist Church, East Lyme (Conn.) First rec- ords commence in 1752, from which time a faithful ac- count of their walk has been preserved. Elder Ebenezer Mack was then the pastor and the names of sixty-eight are recorded as members. The first meeting house was erected in 1755. Elder Mack labored faithfully for more than sixteen years through various vicissitudes of pros- perity and adversity, when at his request, he was releas- ed on account of feeble health, from the pastoral care; yet he continued in covenant relation, though soon after, he ceased to walk with them in the ordinances because he thought it inconsistent for a Baptist Church to build and commune at the Lord's Table, with those who held and practiced infant sprinkling. A council was called, and gave their decision in favor of Elder Mack, and from this council originated the Stonington Association." This Ebenezer Mack was son of John Mack, Jr., the latter being the oldest of the twelve children of John Mack, who came from Scotland. He married Abigail Davis. He d. May 8, 1792, aged 77 years ; she d. March 9, 1788, aged also 77 years. In the record by his grand- son to which reference has already been made, is this further entry : ' ' Elizabeth Mack, wife of Elder Ebenezer Mack, died Nov. 16, 1824, aged 73 years, ' ' from which it appears that he married again after the death of his first [5] 64 Mack Genealogy. wife. The following are the children of Ebenezer and Abigail Mack: Abigail Mack, m. Wm. Gee, d. Mar. 3, 1838, aged 97 yrs. Lydia Mack, m. John Gustin, d. July 20, 1847, aged 101 yrs. 21 days. Zophar Mack, m. Phoebe Miller, d. Apr. 16, 1824, aged 80 yrs. William Mack, m. Euth Gee, d. Apr. 25, 1808, aged 71 yrs. John Mack, m. Grace Howard, d. (1) Lurany Mack, m. Zaccheus Beebe, d. Ang. 12, 1837, aged 86 yrs. Silas Mack, m. Mary Brown, d. Apr. 14, 1836, aged 81 yrs. Elizabeth Mack, m. Eipley Bingham, d. Aug. 30, 1843, aged 83 yrs. It will be observed that the average age of the parents and seven children (omitting John, whose age is un- known), is over eighty-three and one-half years, a record for vitality seldom equalled. While much may be con- ceded to the strenuous, outdoor life of New England pioneers, did not the Christian faith and conduct of these descendants of the Covenanters contribute largely to their remarkable longevity? With the exception of a brief note at the end concern- ing descendants of one Abijah Mack, a son of Zophar Mack, this sketch, for reasons given, will be confined to Silas Mack and his posterity.

It is said that at the battle of Bunker Hill he was at first seized with fright and would have run had not his companions levelled their muskets at him and threatened to shoot, after which he went forward and fought like a tiger. In the New Hamp- shire Eevolutionary War Rolls, his name first appears on the roll of Col. Bellows' Eegiment as of the men who marched from the County of Cheshire at the requisition of Major-General Gates to reinforce the army at Ticon- deroga in October, 1776. These troops reached their destination about the time that the place was evacuated, it being deemed unwise to imperil the safety of so many soldiers where fortifying was out of the question and the enemy approaching in overwhelming numbers. The rec- ord at Washington states that he served 21 days, was en- gaged June 28, and was discharged July 3, 1777. Scarce- ly had he reached home when, on July 21, 1777, he en- listed again with the New Hampshire militia, in General Stark's Brigade, with the men who marched from Wal- pole and joined the Northern Continental Army. This time he participated in the Battle of Bennington and was finally discharged about the time of Gen. Burgoyne 's sur- render. Silas Mack was born in Lyme, Conn.; but after the war settled in Marlow, N. H., where he cleared a farm of 200 acres and built and operated a saw mill. He was a local magistrate and the record, kept by his son, William, shows no less than 37 marriages performed by "S. Mack, Esq.," all in the Mack family. Here ten children were born to him and all, save one, reached a ripe old age. Before closing his biography, the writer offers, for what it is worth, the following' bear story of which family tradi- tion has made this Silas Mack the hero : One day, while eating his noonday lunch at the mill and sitting astride a log on the carriage, a large, black bear strolled leisurely in. The owner of the lunch hastily abandoned the same for a position of safety overhead 66 Mack Genealogy. among the beams and rafters, bruin, in the meantime, taking the vacated seat and soon becoming much en- grossed in the delicacies before him. About this time Squire Mack succeeded in setting the machinery in motion and slowly, steadily, but surely, his bearsMp approached the saw — back foremost. The instant it touched his stub of a tail, he turned around and, being enraged, struck the saw a tremendous blow with his f orepaws and, losing them both, rolled helplessly to the floor, where he was quickly dispatched.

H., and here were born their first two children. In 1806, they re- moved to Marlow, Stanstead Co., Province of Quebec, then called Lower Canada, on the eastern shore of Lake Memphremagog, and here were born Silas Wm. Mack and three other children. Marlow is but a few miles from the Vermont line and it is said that at the time of its settle- ment by emigrants from old Marlow, N. H., this section of country was supposed to belong to the United States. Silas Mack, Jr., was a farmer and miller. With his son, Silas Wm. Mack, he was associated in the building and management of a grist mill at Mack's Mills, Stan- stead Co., and here he spent the latter part of his life. He was also engaged in the mercantile business at the same place with his sons, Silas W. and Daniel. In reli- gion he was a Universalist, as were most of his brothers and immediate descendants. His two favorite mottoes were : ' ' The miller takes toll from every grist he grinds ' ' and ' ' The mill never grinds with the water that is past. ' ' In passing, it may be said that the characteristic fea- tures of the Macks, or rather of this branch of the fam- ily, are a high forehead, a bold and prominent nose, a firm chin and mouth to match. And it is not surprising that strength of will, sometimes degenerating into stub- bornness, is the almost invariable accompaniment. In manner they are inclined to be reserved and possibly may appear austere— at least to strangers. In business dealings they have always been found straightforward and honorable,and they have ever commanded the respect of their fellow citizens. CHILDREN OF SILAS AND ETHELINDA MACK.

The following from Roch- ester Chronicle : " It is not fitting that a noble character like Dr. Cynthia Smith should pass from earth without mention of her worth. Her profession, to which she brought the ardent love of an enthusiast, with the tender touch and skilful hand of woman, was acquired 134 Mack Genealogy. under difficulties which would have effectually debarred one less earnest from the advantages of a higher educa- tion. This singleness of purpose and patient persever- ance was carried into her life-work, which had for its aim, hot her own aggrandizement nor even pecuniary profit, but the good of mankind. She was the inventor of an admirable surgical appliance which has proved of great value and which might have brought to her fame and fortune had it been properly placed before the public. The writer knows of more than one instance where the lame have been made to walk through her skill. To the 130or she not only gave medical advice but freely of her means without hope of other reward than comes to one "who loves his fellow men." She was singularly un- worldly and unselfish, with artistic tastes and mental en- dowments which fitted her to enjoy, in the highest degree, the grand and beautiful in nature. She denied herself all luxury that might lure her from her purpose to do what she could for suffering humanity in her chosen profession. No one could be in her presence without being uplifted from sordid aims and realizing that she indeed lived on a higher plane, for her faith in her Heavenly Father was perfect and unquestioning and a constant inspiration to her friends. The aroma of this pure Christian life will linger long as a sweet memory of her who, "after life's fitful fever, ' ' rests in the sleep ' ' He giveth his beloved. ' ' 251.

The following lines were dedicated to her on the sixtieth anniversary of her birth and read at a gathering of friends at her home in Northampton : It was just sixty years ago (The record says) today; And these are just about the words That some were heard to say: "Another girl at Oliver's, I'm really glad it's so. They have a deal of work to do. And she can help, you know. Of course t'will be some time before She can do much; but see! She will be smart; just see her fists. Clinched tight as they can be ! " I was not there, but then I know Just how such matters stand, Such speculations are the same. Throughout the Christian land. In fancy I can see the man Most interested there. As he bends o 'er the wee small face. And smooths the baby hair ; The love-light shines in his black eyes, He speaks with mellow voice That echoes through the mother 's heart, And she can but rejoice. 136 Mack Genealogy. So Oliver and Fanny, then ' A young and loving pair, Took tlie wee maiden to their hearts And gave her kindly care ; And so she filled her little sphere As other infants do. And won her way into all hearts Before she learned to "coo." Her mother taught her lessons then Upon the old home farm, (Such lessons to young ladies now Would not result in harm.) And all through girlhood's happy hours She always did "so well," As those who knew and loved her hest. Are often heard to tell. The other children came and went, She was her father's stay. For the dear mother, whom they loved. Was early called away; And sorrowing hearts were left to mourn, Yet still the home-fire burned. And comfort reigned, and joy revived. Through lessons she had learned. The old home life was very sweet. Hospitable and free. And friends were wont to gather there Around the old home tree; And so her reputation gained. Her fame went round about, And no one wondered when they heard That she had been sought out ; That she was soon to go away And enter a new life With one who'd chosen her above All others as his wife. Mack Genealogy. 13Y And this and that one said of her : "How can we spare Louise ! But she will make a faithful wife, And cannot fail to please." Years have sped on, and she has formed New friendships and new ties, And some are left, while some have gone To homes beyond the skies, And she has kindly cared for all. Been generous and free. And has retained among her friends Her place, as you can see. "A friend in need is a friend indeed;" I know her such to be, She has been such to other ones, And truly such to me. I do not deal in idle praise. And yet I fail to see Why truthful words may not be said Before we cease to be. When all the work, the weariness And toil of life is o'er. And we have crossed the chilling tide Unto the "Farther Shore;" The words that might have soothed the heart While burdened here with care. Could never reach us in that world Where endless pleasures are. Well, sixty years have passed away, And yet you cannot know The number to be added yet Before you're called to go; But the dear Father knoweth all. And you can trust His love. And He will lead you safely up To the bright home above. 138 Mack Genealogy. To Mr. Strong and wife : It may be thouglit as not the thing For me to write to you, But never mind, 'tis just about "What I propose to do; For I would do the work as well And thorough as I can. And hint just here, that leaving lialf Is no part of my plan. We have esteemed you as our friends, And hope we always may ; Our friendships dated back for years. To quite a distant day— And you were younger then than now — How very, very strange, As if Old Time moved some along. And left some without change. But that is not the way with life. We all grow old the same ; The strong and active form becomes A bowed and feeble frame ; Till now we all are on the side That looks out toward the west— When we shall reach the "Border Land," 'Tis God who knoweth best. But as He is a loving friend, Who guideth us aright, If we but place our hands in His, No change will then affright ; But may you both confidingly. With hearts so filled with peace Be waiting, watching for the guide To give your souls release. God grant that your last days may be The brightest of them all. Mack Genealogy. IS^ 'ershadowed by tlie Father 's love, And waiting for His call. "With just enough impatience then To give your souls a zest For all the bliss that cometh- when He gives His loved ones rest. Oh may these blessings that I crave For both of you be given, And at the final gathering Meet all your friends in Heaven; Such is my hearts sincere desire. And prayer to God for you— And when your other friends take leave I, too, would say, "adieu." M. S. S. McElwain. The following Hymn was sung on this occasion : TuNE-"Z>itA;e Street." Our loving Father, we would raise Our voices here in song of praise ; And bless Thee, who alone hath power To give to us this passing hour. We thank Thee for our social ties ; For homes that we so dearly prize; And for the friends that Thou hast given To help us on the road to Heaven. And we would bless Thee, our God, That we can "kiss the chastening rod," The smiting hand, for we believe That willingly Thou does not grieve. We bless Thee, God, that we may be United in eternity. And for the grace that Thou dost give To make us cheerful while we live. 140 Mack Genealogy. Bless us, our Father, ere we part. And sanctify eacli waiting heart. And so watch over us in love That we may meet in Heaven above. + 483. Julia, b. Jany. 30, 1824. + 484. Franklin, b. April 13, 1826. 485. Wayland, b. July 19, 1831, d. Aug. 25, 1852. 486. Electa, b.

In 1885 failing health compelled 142 Mack Genealogy. her to retire from lier work, to seek rest and quiet at her home. As she was no idler, what remained of her ex- hausted strength was used in home duties, church and Sunday School work. Words are inadequate to express the lovely Christian character she possessed. She was patient in suffering, thoughtful for the interest and wel- fare of others, and untiring in her efforts to do good, truly she seemed to have all the Christian graces perfected in her life. She felt a great interest in all the various ob- jects of church work and channels of benevolence, espe- cially in Missions, devising ways and means for their ad- vancement. She was naturally retiring and unassuming, and often underrated her abilities. 256. Ebenezer Smith (169. 137. 3. 1.) b. Aug. 10, 1804, Mid- dlefield, Mass., d. Mar. 30, 1869.

In 1832 he purchased a half in- terest in the New England Eeview. His partner was Sam- uel Hanmer. In the early thirties the silk cocoon-raising craze broke out ; and such a craze New England had never seen, and probably never will again experience. We don't know just how it was all brought about, but every farmer north, south, east and west, planted mulberry trees and started as soon as possible to raise cocoons. Mr. Corn- stock turned over the paper to his son and became very prominent in the silk culture movement. He was asso- ciated with Christopher Colt, father of Samuel Colt. They established headquarters in a stone building on Front St., Hartford, Conn., and started to grow, buy and sell mul- berry trees, raise cocoons, sell their eggs and reel silk. Their success was amazing. Frequently orders were re- ceived for mulberry trees accompanied by $1,000.00. There were handsome profits in the business and in a few months both had amassed what was then considered a magnificent fortune. One year each made $10,000.00. Mr. Comstock was regarded as the leading silk culturist in Conn, and published for a number of years, the Silk Cul- turist and Farmer's Manual, a monthly magazine. The craze died out after a few years. There were two chil- dren. + 547. Wm. Greene, b. Oct. 11, 1810. + 548. Julia Ann. 290. Jerusha C. Tracy (178. 138. 3. 1.) b. Oct. 24, 1793, d. Feb. 15, 1851, m.

She was a woman of great personal beauty and of a character not less remarkable. She mar- ried a merchant and farmer and went with him to live in Abington (then Luzerne) Pa., where Mr. Dean was born. Davis Dean's grandfather, Jonathan Dean, was a land agent under the Connecticut claim for that section of Northeastern Penn. and he located in Abington in 1801, one year after the first tree had been felled there. Jeffrey Dean, father of Davis Dean, had built his cabin in the for- est; but clearing and settling had progressed rapidly so Mack Genealogy. 151 that by the time his children were grown, the county was well beyond the pioneer stage, so that although Davis Dean and wife began their married life in a simple frame house of two rooms and in a most modest fashion, they were in the midst of an excei)tionally intelligent and pro- gressive community, and in the material, educational and social life of that community as it advanced, they took their full part. Of a generation which had emerged from the rigidities of Puritanism, they retained all the virtues of the Puritan without the harshness. Their lives were models of high thought and upright deed and they were loved and hono/ed by all who knew them. Their home was a notably hospitable one, always a happy resort for friends and a welcome shelter to the needy and even to the outcast. In church membership both husband and wife were Bap- tists. (Jonathan Dean, grandfather of Davis Dean, was one of the organizers of the First Abington Society in 1802.) In sATnpathies they were non-sectarian and liberal. In politics Mr. Dean was first a Whig, then an ardent Abolitionist and then Eepublican. Patriotism with him was a marked characteristic and during the Civil War he was a conspicuous local figure and leader of patriotic sentiment. His oldest son was among the first to respond for volunteers. There were nine children, all born in Abington, Penn. + 597. Smith D., b. Dec. 29, 1833. 598. Jonathan W., b. May 6, 1836, d.

In 1814 he got an appointment in the treasury under Greo. M. Dal- las, at the same time turning his attention to the pulpit and preaching in some churches in Washington and the neighborhood. In 1815-16 Congress made him chaplain, - and in 1823 he was called to the Oliver St. Baptist church, New York City, and in 1841 he took charge of the Broome St. church, where he remained till his death, in 1855. Dur- ing his entire ministry he was conspicuous in all branches of church work. He was a prominent divine in the Bap- tist dei;iomination, which he divided by the introduction of his new version.

He represented the town in the Legislature 1862-63, and a member of the Senate 1865-66. He had also at various times held minor positions of trust. His political opponents were not enemies, for his candor, un- der all circumstances, won the respect of those, who, per- haps, were at variance with him. He was a faithful and willing worker in the cause of temperance, and though not over-demonstrative, his broad influence was ever for the right. He early in life united with the church and for thirty-seven years he had been one of the deacons of the First Congregational Church, East Haddam, Conn. He was a man careful in his judgment ; a true Christian, and his death was the closing of a well-spent life. It is a fact worthy of mention, that during his long life, prob- ably no man in town had kindly officiated as funeral direc- tor on so many occasions. 636. William A. (only son.)

For one of her character to be an invalid and receive those attentions that she was in the habit -of giving to others was a severe trial ; but for ^ few of the last years she bore this trial with patient submission to the Father 's will.

In his career as a musician, it was his lot to be one of the anvil cjiorus in Gilmore's celebrated "Peace Jubilee" which was held in Boston shortly after the close of the Civil War.

(For her record see No. 3,326 and 681.) He went to Hartford, Conn., to make it his permanent home at the age of seventeen, having previously been there during Winter of 1834-35, attending the Grammar school. For the first ten years he was in the employment of his brother-in-law, James Noble, who was a manu- facturer of, and wholesale and retail dealer in, ready- made clothing. In 1848 he began business on his own account, in the retail grocery trade, which, under his tact and active business qualities, soon grew to large proportions, so that 158 Mack Genealogy. in 1850 the sales amounted to one hundred and twenty- thousand dollars. After 1850 he added to the business a candle factory, and the sales were large, and not only embraced the New England States, but New York and even Michigan. In those days the use of tallow candles was not despised even in the best families, and the busi- ness was large and the profits considerable. (His integ- rity in business was never tarnished, thus his credit was never questioned.) He continued in that business until 1857, when he dropped it and took up the buying of hides and fat, curing the hides and trying the fat. This, too, soon grew to large proportions and was prosecuted with energy until the close of the War of the Rebellion, when, finding the business could be closed up and leave him with a fair competence, he concluded to let others do the business, while he retired and looked after his invest- ments, the principal of which was stock in the Hartford Bridge Co., until 1889, when the bridge became free. The company wound up its affairs early in 1890. In 1865 he became director, then president, and since 1877 had been secretary and treasurer. In the "Hartford Times," dated Nov. 20, 1889, is found the following : "Mr. Thomas Martin was identified with the bridge company for fifty- five years. In 1834 he was employed to fill and light the lamps. He filled them in the morning, saturating the wicks with spirits of turpentine. In the early even- ing he went through the bridge with a torch and lighted them ; this, seven days in the week, for which he received fifty cents ! or seven cents, one mill and three-sevenths of a mill per day. Think of that, poor young man of 1889. He worked his way, attending the old Grammar School on Linden Place, and earning money enough to support him- self, in the odd hours of the school's recesses," etc. His deeds of charity are many, but given in a quiet way. At the present time he is active, in full possession of all his faculties and does not appear older than men who have not reached three-score and ten limit.

Mr. Smith was the oldest son of the late Azariah Smith, Sr., one of Onondaga's pioneers, whose high character and command- ing business qualifications were well known throughout the State. Mr. J. Calvin Smith possessed many of those qualifications. His intellectual acquirements were also of a high order. He had a fine taste and was a scholar of great culture. Few private libraries contain a more choice and valuable collection than does his, and it was his delight to consult them. With the exception of about twenty years of his mid-life, Mr. Smith was a resident of Manlius Village. During those excepted years, he was a successful merchant in New York City, when having ac- quired a competency, and his health being somewhat im- paired, he returned to his native village where he has ever been foremost in all that tended to its welfare. He served as deacon and treasurer of the Presbyterian church for many years to the time of his demise. He took a great interest in the adornment of the village cemetery of which he was the secretary and treasurer. His useful life ended, he now sleeps peacefully there where the green grass grows over his grave. But the memory of his many virtues, his earnest Christian char- acter, his kindness to the poor, and his noble unselfish life will ever be cherished in this community. He retired from active business life in 1865. An amus- ing incident occurred while he was clerk in his father's store. A person called Nicholas who was often the cause [iij 160 Mack Genealogy. for merriment in others on one occasion found himself in a ludicrous predicament. He came one day, from his farm, on horseback, to make some purchases at Azariah Smith's store. He bought a pitchfork and some indigo. The indigo he carried in a paper, perhaps loosely tied in his hat, resting it on the top of his head. In returning to his home his horse took fright and ran away with him. It was a warm sunny day and the jolting of his horseback ride combining with his profuse perspiration, caused the indigo to come to pieces and I'un down his head and face, rendering him a most laughable looking object of sight in his ride and on his arrival at home. Soon after he re- minded the young clerk, Mr. J. C. Smith, that ' ' he was the boy who sold him that indigo. ' ' There was one child, a daughter. + 646. Louisa, b. June 3, 1836. 374.

He was a graduate of Yale College, class of 1837, Yale Medical Institute, New Haven Theological Seminary and attended a course of lectures at the Law school. A notable Revival of Eeli- gion occurred in college during the spring term of 1835. As a result of this, about twenty of our class united with the College Church in the course of a few months follow- ing. One of these was Azariah Smith. In an interview with a classmate. Dr. C. B. Smith, of Grand Rapids, Mich., in August, 1885, he gave the following fact in regard to the conversion of Azariah: He said, "I was rooming in the North Sophomore recitation room. One Wednesday morning, while getting my Latin lesson, Azariah came in, took a seat, put his feet on the stove, but said nothing. I Mack Genealogy. 101 saw that he was agitated, and half suspected the cause, though I made no remark. Soon he said, ' C. B., I have made up my mind to become a Christian. ' I said, in re- ply, 'Well, Azariah, when?' He said, 'Before Saturday night. ' I then turned around in my chair and said to him, 'Why not now, Azariah? You may be dead and in hell before then!' He, hesitated a moment and then said, 'I will.' I arose and locked the door, then said, 'Let us kneel down and pray. ' I offered a short prayer, then ask- ed him to pray. He said, 'I can't pray. ' But I urged him —and presently he began and offered one of the most simple, penitent, broken-hearted prayers' I ever heard— one in which he wholly and heartily surrendered himself fully and forever to God. We rose ; I said a few words to him, and he went out— another man. From that day to the day of his death, he lived a thoroughly earnest and godly life. When he was examined by the American Board for acceptance as a Missionary, the story of his conversion was so short and simple that they had doubts about accepting him. But the endorsement of one who had known his manner of life from the beginning was so cordial and earnest that he was received. ' ' From the day of his conversion, he resolved to devote his life to the arduous and self-sacrificing duties of a Foreign Missionary, and while we lament his early death, amid scenes made historic by his labors and success, we cannot but rejoice in the record of so perfect and beau- tiful a life. All his uncommon powers of attainment, his diligence, self-denial and sustained effort, he consecrat- ed to the acquisition of all those kinds of knowledge which he felt would be useful to a Christian laborer in Western Asia. Besides accomplishing all the curriculum of theo- logical study in its most thorough manner, he devoted him- self to medical and surgical studies with such zeal as to make himself a skillful physician. He also studied those parts of the common, civil and international law which he considered might be useful to him. Natural his- 162 Mack Genealogy. tory and general science, including astronomy and meteor- ology, were carefully, even zealously, pursued. These ex- tended studies occupied Mm until the autumn of 1842, be- fore he felt himself qualified for the work he had chosen- He was ordained Aug. 30, 1842, at Manlius, N. Y., as an evangelist, to labor in foreign fields ; sailed from Bos- ton as a missionary of the A. B. C. F. M., for Smyrna, Nov. 10, 1842, expecting to join Dr. Grant at Mosul, and engage with him and others in labors for the Mt. Nestor- ians. Disturbances in the country prevented his obtain- ing a passport, and the accomplishment of his plans was delayed until 1844. He reached Mosul but a short time previous to Dr. Grant's death. Finding the Nestorians greatly diminished and scattered by the war, it was thought wise to disband the mission, and he returned to the sea-coast. (It was on this journey that Dr. Smith first learned that there were a few men inquiring after the Truth, living in the city of Aintab, Syria). Having reached the sea-coast, he soon connected himself with the Armenian Turkish mission. His medical skill called him from place to place, and it was not until the fall of 1845 that he became a resident of Erzeroom, in Asia Minor, and he labored till July, 1847. In 1846, while absent, his house was mobbed by the Ar- menians, because of his having received into his house an Armenian priest who was inquiring after the Truth ; but God overruled it for good. In the fall of 1847 he was commissioned to labor in Aintab, Syria. He reached the city in December, having been delayed by an attack of cholera while journeying. He found the light flickering and apparently just ready to go out, but the Lord had a great and glorious work in store for him. His legal, medical and biblical knowledge were brought into requisition, and from early morn till late at night, body, soul and mind were found "diligent in business, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord. ' ' In 1848, after five years of successful devotion to his Mack Genealogy. 163 work, he returned to the United States for a brief visit, during which he married, July 6, Miss Corinth S. Elder, of Cortland, N. Y. He sailed again with his wife, from Boston, July 22, for Smyrna and Constantinople. He soon after located himself on his chosen field of labor at Aintab, seventy-two miles north of Aleppo, where he had already prepared the way for what has proved to be one of the most prosperous of the Syria;n missions. Dr. Smith published the following papers in the Ameri- can Journal of Science : On Electricity, in volume 39 ; on the Euins of Nineveh, in volume 49 ; Thermometrical Ob- servations in Western Asia, volume 2, new series ; Addi- tional Notices of Nineveh, volume 5, new series. The last work of his life, for the protection of the poor people among whom he lived, and one which occupied all his leisure, was the taking of an inventory of all the property owned by the members of the Protestant com- munity in Aintab, as the basis of an assessment for the equalization of their taxes. In this labor the natives gave him all the aid in their power, but it was an arduous un- dertaking, and the people there had never before had the first thought of being taxed according to the amount of property owned. The letters of Dr. Smith to his family and friends re- specting his work in Asia, and some of his ' ' Aintab circu- lars, " reviewing the progress and prospects of the mis- sion, all breathe the same spirit of self-sacrificing devo- tion to the cause to which his life was consecrated— the same calm assurance of faith, and with it all a degree of worldly wisdom and sagacity, without which he could hardly have coped successfully with the bitter enmity of cunning Armenian priests. Mrs. Smith's account of her husband's last illness and death, written at the time to her father, is a beautiful tri- bute to those qualities of his life and heart which we all remember and love. There are ample materials for a 164: Mack Genealogy. memoir of Dr. Smith, which would possess much interest among Christians and philanthropists everywhere. He was ordained at Manlius, N. Y., as a Foreign Mis- sionary, by the Onondaga Presbytery. The sermon was by Rev. Dr. Lansing of Syracuse, and the Charge by Rev. Hiram Bingham, the venerable missionary to the Sand- wich Islands. He sailed for Smyrna, November 19, of the same year, where he arrived after a voyage of fifty- three days. The following lines are words prepared by Rev. Hiram Bingham from a song by Mrs. Dana, and sung by him on the evening of the ordination of Azariah Smith, Jr., missionary to the Independent Nestorians : Shed not a tear though I leave friends so dear, When I am gone, when I am gone ; Smile, if the tall mission Barque disappear, When I am gone, I am gone ; Weep not for me, borne on yon rolling wave. Think who has died the lost natives to save, Think of the crown his true heralds shall have, When I am gone — I am gone. Send up your prayer to our Friend ever near, When I am gone— when I am gone, Sing me a song when from me you shall hear, "WTien I am gone — I am gone; Come at the morn of a bright Sabbath^ day Come at the eve of the concert to pray, Come and rejoice that I toil far away, When I am gone — I am gone.

May 13, 1900, nine days after her husband. She was a teacher in a female seminary at Alton, 111., and on her way home from there stopped at Manlius, N. Y., to visit him and his parents. His mother had invited to a family tea quite a number of relatives, and then the marriage took place, much to the surprise of all present. Wm. Manlius began attending the district school when three years old, and, being favored all his school life with good teachers and out of school hours his studies receiv- c ing considerable attention from his parents, he grew up with a love for books and a taste for reading. His father had a custom of giving to each of his children a new copy of the Bible on the completion of its first reading through by course, and he received his before he was seven years old. He attended two or three select schools, studying 166 Mack Genealogy. in them Higher English, Latin and Grreek, and in his tenth year was reading Virgil, but was not thoroughly drilled in these studies until he attended Manlius Academy, where he had most competent and thorough instruction in the grammar of these languages under the teaching of two Amherst graduates, W. H. Tyler and C. C. Bayley. His academic instruction was supplemented, especially in mathematics, by his father 's oversight and direction. One summer in particular, he arranged for him to study his algebra from five o'clock in the morning till breakfast time, at six, his father sitting by, reading, but ready to explain anything hard of comprehension. He was a pupil in Manlius Academy from its commence- ment, in 1835, till the end of the summer term of 1840, and the Fall of that year entered as freshman at Yale Col- lege, New Haven, Conn., graduating in the class of 1844. The first two years he roomed with his brother, Azariah, who was there pursuing theological studies. He says of him: "I have never before or since known a person whose whole life, even to minute details, was so thorough- ly pervaded with the Christian spirit as was his, and in all the two years of this intimate association with him I never knew him to do a sinful act. A portion of his time not occupied with theological studies, he gave to further- ance of his medical knowledge by attending private courses of lectures given by Dr. William TuUy, in Materia Medica, Chemistry and the Theory and Practice of Medi- cine. In one hour of social intercourse he frequently gave ■ me abstracts of these lectures, and thus gave my mind a direction toward the pursuit of medical studies." The winter of 1844 he spent in the office of Dr. Alden March, at Albany, and attended lectures at the Medical College there. In the summer of 1845, he took private instructions in medicine of Dr. William TuUy, and in the winter attended the Medical College at Albany, and in the summer of 1846 returned to New Haven to be with Dr. Tully; also in 1847. In October, 1848, he began attend- Mack Genealogy. 167 ance on a full course of medical lectures at the University of Pennsylvania, in Philadelphia, and received from that institution the degree of M. D., March, ] 849. In June he opened an office in Syracuse, N. Y., and lived there till the fall of 1851, when it seemed desirable that he should return to Manlius to live with and care for his }nother, and there he engaged in the practice of medicine till the fall of 1872 (with an intermission of 1857 and 1858), when he received an appointment to lecture on pharmacy, dur- ing the winter, in the New York College of Pharmacy. In October, 1873, he established himself in chemical business in Syracuse, N. Y. From May, 1874, till Decem- ber, 1875, was physician at the State prison at Sing Sing, N. Y., when he resigned and returned to his business at Syracuse. In 1877 he was made Professor of Materia Medica in the Syracuse University, and in 1878 exchang- ed places with the Professor of Chemistry, which position he held as well as that of Professor of Botany. From the fact that he is a renowned chemist he has many times been consulted in cases of death from sup- posed poisoning, and made several examinations, in which he has been happily instrumental in demonstrating the innocence of the suspected party, and in a few cases where poison was found, for some reason the parties were not brought to trial. * He was in Utica a year and a half, acting as chemist in refining gold for a manufacturer of what was then known as sponge gold. In Manlius he held the office of village trustee, and also of the schools, and of Manlius Academy, and was largely influential in having an academic department in the Union school at Manlius, and of turning over to its uses the prop- erty of the defunct academy. He was secretary of the Medical Society of Onondaga county for several years and of the Medical Society of the State of New York from 1877 to 1889 ; also secretary of the Manlius and Pompey Agricultural Association for upwards of twenty years. ' 168 Mack Genealogy, He united with the College church in New Haven in 1841, and transferred his connection from that to the First Presbyterian church in Syracuse in 1849. When he re- turned to Manlius he became connected with its Presby- terian church and served many years as one of its trus- tees and its clerk and treasurer. A part of the time he was S. S. superintendent, and a few years before his last removal to Syracuse (in 1881), he was one of its elders. Early in his medical practice in Syracuse several cases of suspected poisoning were brought to him, and in 1857 he was employed by the District Attorney of Onondaga County in a Skaneateles case, where he proved that there had been arsenical poisoning. Subsequently he was em- ployed by many of the counties of the State in cases of real and suspected poisoning, having been engaged in an average of over one a year for forty years. During his work as a chemist Dr. Smith worked out the processes for obtaining several drugs and attained a con- siderable reputation in this regard. His publications of medical and chemical subjects have also been numerous. January, 1900, Dr. Smith sold his business as a manu- facturing chemist and had planned to move to California, where he intended to make his home with his children. He proposed to remove with his wife on the first of May, but remained longer in order to dispose of his house in Syracuse. Dr. Smith was a man of genial disposition and men of the medical profession had profound respect for him. He had marked religious sentiments, and was for many years an active member of the Presbyterian Church. At the time of his death he was connected with the Fourth Pres- byterian Church. The following account of their silver wedding— a sur- prise party— may be of interest and so is inserted: "The 6th of August, 1872, being the 25th anniversary of the wedding of Dr. William Manlius Smith and his es- timable wife, a number of their friends in the villages of Mack Genealogy. 169 Manlius and Fayetteville and their vicinities determined to celebrate tlie event by a surprise party. Always ready in emergencies and expedients to conceal their designs, some of the ladies managed to have the Doctor and wife invited to spend the anniversary of the nuptial day at the house of his brother, John Calvin Smith, than which nothing could be more natural or appropriate. To give the ladies still more time for their mischievous prepara- tions, the Doctor and his lady, after spending most of the day at his brother's, were invited by the latter gentleman, near the close of the day, to take a ride with him on the railroad and visit the tunnel near Cazenovia. Returning from their ride, their host, of course, took his two guests home with him to tea. During all this time of absence from their home, the unsuspicious Doctor and his innocent wife were wholly ignorant of the driving business which had been carried on by several active young ladies throughout the day at the Doctor's residence. All things had been placed in apple-pie order, including the putting ' to bed of six of the Doctor's olive branches, when the good Doctor and his wife reached their home at about eight o'clock. The outside blinds of the house had been care- fully closed and the lights inside turned down, and there was a studied quietness all around, when they opened the front door of their dwelling. Judge of the surprise when their house was suddenly lighted up and crowded with friends, and tables overflowing with delicacies were pre- sented to their view. An evergreen arch spanned the en- trance to the hall in which were neatly placed the word, "WELCOME," in silver letters. Twenty-five stars had been tastefully arranged on the parlor wall, with the years 1847 and 1872 in elegant print on either side. A large wedding cake graced a centre table in the middle of the parlor, with the years above mentioned in the center, and a constellation of ten stars around them, being the bona fide number of their children, living. The Doctor and his lady, on being introduced to the company by Mr. Van 170 Mack Genealogy. Scliaak, were informed by that gentleman that the com- pany present had taken lawful possession of their house for the evening, and they must consider themselves the guests instead of the hosts, for the occasion, and conduct them- selves accordingly. Among other things, the guests were particularly congratulated by Mr. Van Schaack on the fact, now so rare, of having had their happy connubial union crowned and blessed with a large and promising family of children, who would no doubt be a source of joy, comfort and support to them in old age. It was designed by the managers of this delightful affair that the occa- sion should not be one for making presents, and notice to that effect had been given ; nevertheless quite a number of choice silver gifts, made by highly valued friends, will long be preserved by their recipients as mementoes of a most interesting occasion, which afforded unmixed delight to all who were present." There were twelve children. (See No. 2,624.) 654. Dullas, b. May 17, 1848, Manlius, N. Y., d. Sept. 20, 1849, Syracuse, N. Y. . 655. Mary, b. Oct. 31, 1850, Syracuse, N. Y., d.

In 1873 and 1874 she was operator at Palmyra, Waterloo and Sus- pension Bridge, and in February, 1875, was sent to Holly, N. Y., and in June was put in charge of ticket office there. She remained at Holly until April, 1880, when she was transferred to Albion to assume a similar position. The Plolly Standard has the following complimentary notice : "Miss Hattie Smith, who has for some years been the ticket agent and operator at the Holly depot, went to Al- bion on Tuesday to assume a similar position there, but at quite an advance in wages. We have heard and wit- Mack Genealogy. 171 nessed, within the last thirty-six hours, a great deal of sorrow and mourning over this change. Miss Smith has greatly endeared herself to the people of Holly, both in a business and social way. Everybody of course is glad to learn of her promotion and advance in a pecuniary sense, and their best wishes for her future success and happiness surely go with her." She served in Albion, N. Y., until February, 1884, when she was transferred to Lockport, N. Y. The Albion Chronicle of Feb. 23, 1884, contained the following: "Miss Hattie Smith, who has been the Central-Hudson ticket agent at this station for four years past, has been transferred to Lockport to take charge of the ticket office in that city. Miss Smith, during her stay among us, has won a host of friends by her ladylike deportment and ac- commodating and courteous demeanor toward everyone. She left for her new field of labor Wednesday afternoon. The change was made on short notice, but a few of her friends near the depot clubbed together and procured a copy of Webster's Unabridged Dictionary, which, to- gether with a standard, was forwarded to her the same evening." She remained at Lockport until December, 1886, when, at her own request, she was allowed to give up the tickets entirely, and was moved to the telegraph office in Syracuse, where she still remains. + 658.

He was an expert chemist, pursued his studies under Prof. Groessman, at Amherst Agricultural College, Mass., in 1882 and '83, then returned to Syracuse and engaged in analytical chemical work in coimection with Prof. F. E. Engelhardt till March, 1886, when Dr. E. became superintendent of salt works at Pitf ord, N. Y., and he carried on the work alone. About this time he was ap- pointed Milk Inspector for the Health Board of the city of Syracuse, and continued in their employ till his death, af- ter an illness of only a fortnight. He was unmarried and had always resided at home. He was an active member and supporter of the Good Will Congregational Church of Syracuse, N. Y., and was librarian of the S. S. for years. Copy of words of sympathy sent to Mr. and Mrs. Wm. M.Smith: "Our Heavenly Father, in his wisdom and love, has called our brother, Walter S. Smith, home, as Jesus said, to be with Him where He is. ' ' We desire by this to express our sympathy with those who miss him from their household, and to tell of our love for him. He was among us full of love, cheerfulness and kindness, a follower of Jesus Christ. We remember him as ready for the Lord's work as it came before him and willing and earnest in doing it. He was one of those of whom we can say, 'He was faithful unto the end.' His work and influence shall remain with us and his memory is precious to us all. THE GOOD WILL SUNDAY SCHOOL. C.W.

She went im- mediately to New York City, and for over a year had charge of the drug room at the dispensary of the "Wo- man 's Infirmary for Women and Children, ' ' which work she did in a very satisfactory manner; while there saw considerable clinical practice. She returned to Syracuse in the summer of 1888, and for six months was in Dr. Didama's office. In April, 1889, she opened an office of her own in Syracuse. She has been, so far, very successful and seems well fitted for the profession she has chosen. Is now and has been for several years physician at the State Hospital, in Utica. 664. Louisa, b.

She taught her first year at East Syracuse, and at the close of that year was given a position in the Montgomery school in Syracuse, where she still is. She has always had charge of quite young children and seems peculiarly and especially adapted tO' that branch in the school, judging from the success which has attended her labors. She is now instructor in Physi- cal Culture at Bryn Mawr College, Bryn Mawr, Pa. 665. Ludlow H., b. Aug. 7, 1870, Manlius, N.

He was a farmer and also a merchant in his native town. Since 1881 he has lived with his children mak- ing many trips between Huntington, Mass., and Chey- enne, Wyo. ; also a part of the time resided in Washing- ton, D.' C. An account of the celebration of the silver wedding at their home in connection with the golden wed- ding of her father and mother will appear in No. His eightieth birthday was a happy one, spent at his daughter's in Cheyenne, Wyo. The account says "When he sat down to breakfast in the morning he had the pleas- ure of observing the faces of three of his grandchildren, Frankie and Fred Warren, and Parks Smith, light up with mingled astonishment and joy as each discovered a check for $100.00 beneath their plates, which the grand- father had placed there as a donation in honor of his eightieth birthday. In the evening a splendid reception, which had been arranged by Charles M. Smith, his son, [13] 176 Mack Genealogy. and Mrs. G. R. Palmer, was tendered Mr. Smith and was a complete surprise to the venerable gentleman. Exactly- one hundred of his friends called to congratulate him and wish him well. A pleasing feature of the reception was the presentation to Mr. Smith of an elegant gold-headed cane from a number of his friends. Rev. J. P. Farmer, pastor of the church to which Mr. Smith belongs, pre- sented the cane in a most appropriate speech. He was the recipient of a number of other presents. Mrs. Warren, daughter of Mr. Smith, returned from the West on ^he af- tei-noon train, to be with her father on his birthday and the splendid reception was as much of a surprise to her as it was to him.

She became a member of the Bap- tist Church in Middlefield, Mass., in 1834, subsequently becoming the wife of John Smith of that town.

His death was so sudden as to be indeed a shock. He died suddenly while riding in car from his home in Brookline to Boston, Mass. He boarded his regular train and was apparently in his usual health. His nephew, who resides in Newton Center (con- trary to his usual custom) took the same train and sat and chatted with his uncle. When about half way in town, hearing his uncle make a peculiar noise, he turned and looked at him, saw him gasp and he was dead. There was no physician on the train, but as soon as the South Station was reached he was carried to the emergency room and placed on a couch, but the physician said he died instantly, and that apoplexy was the jarobable cause of death. His first thirteen years of life he spent on the farm, going to school winters, beginning when three years of age. He gained so fair a mastery of the branches taught in com- mon school that a few months in the Academy at Manlius, N. Y., with two terms at Wiliiston Seminary, Easthamp- ton, Mass., supplemented by a term under the tuition of his brother, Metcalf, enabled him to enter New York Cen- tral College, McGrawville, N. Y., with his brother, Met- calf, in 1851. His father chose that college because of its liberal character, which made no discrimination against sex or color. Immediately on graduating, in 1855, he was elected Librarian of the College; also Greek Professor, and continued there until November, 1857 ; then he taught a year in Kishacoquillas Seminary, in Mifflin Co., Pa., and from 1859 to 1863 was Superintendent of Schools for that county. From June, 1863 to June, 1865, he was cashier in the United States military telegraph service at Nashville, Tenn. In September, 1865, he became connected with the book publishing house of Ticknor & Fields, Boston, Mass!, and continuing with their successors, Fields, Osgood & Mack Genealogy. 185 Co., James E. Osgood & Co., Houghton, Osgood & Co., and Houghton, Mifflin & Co., with whom he was connected until his death, having charge first of the publishing de- partment, and later it was his function to see all men in quest of advertisements as well as to write the advertise- ments of the house itself, and there could not be found more dignified or entertaining ones than from the pen of j Mr. Smith. He understood his business thoroughly; his advertisements were never sensational but every line told, and his Bulletins for Houghton, MifiBlin & Co., were al- ways worth reading. For fifteen years he had been a trustee of the Eoxbury Latin school and was interested in several other institutions. He had a thorough knowl- edge of books, was always a courteous and agreeable gen- tleman, and a kind friend to those with whom he was brought into more intimate association. He will be much missed by authors and literary frequenters of his place of business, by whom he was held in high esteem, as well as by hundreds of his friends. It is hard to find a man as genial.

In October, 1866, he was ordained to the gospel ministry and has preached almost continu- ously ever since. In 1877 he received the honorary de- gree of Doctor of Divinity from Amherst College. He was editor of the Bibliotheca Sacra for the year 1883-84, and has been associate editor in the years since. He is trustee, Oberlin College, Mt.

He pursued his academic studies at home, under his brothers and sisters, and in Lewistown Academy, Penn- sylvania. He entered Amherst College as Freshman in 1861 and graduated in 1865. He was Principal of Hins- dale High School, 1865-67. He pursued the studies of the junior year in Oberlin Theological Seminary with the class of 1869, and the studies of the middle year in An- dover Theological Seminary. He was teacher of Greek and Latin for the middle class in Williston Seminary,^ Easthampton, Mass., 1868-70, then at the University of Halle, Germany, one year. Returning to this country, he was licensed to preach in Boston in January, 1872. He 188 Mack Genealogy. was in Paris, France, in study a part of same year, but returned to take a professorship in the Worcester Free Institute (now the Polyteclmic), in the autumn. Here he was continuously at work for the twenty years until his death, with the exception of one year 's absence, on leave, in study for the degree of Ph. D., which was conferred by Syracuse University in 1888. His department was at first English and modern languages, but later political science. He was distinguished in his life as a teacher by the enthusiasm and fidelity that marked his career as a stu- dent in college. He had filled the office of deacon in the Union Congre- gational Church. The Worcester Evening Gazette, in a notice of him said : ' ' He was a thorough and painstaking teacher, and students who had an ambition to work enjoyed his in- struction. ' ' Death came to him suddenly. While attending a meet- ing of the Society of Mechanical Engineers he became faint and complained of pain in the heart. He was borne from the meeting to his home and obtained temporary relief from medicine, but later the attack renewed and death resulted. A tribute to Dr. Smith from the pen of a friend fol- lows: A wide circle of friends and acquaintances was yester- day morning inexpressibly shocked and grieved to learn of the very sudden death of Prof. Smith. For several weeks he had not felt in quite his usual health, but had attended regularly to his work. He was a man of quite unusual powers of mind, breadth of culture and strength of purpose, and he will be greatly missed. He has labor- ed untiringly for the promotion of exact knowledge and scholarly culture and has contributed much toward the prosperity of the Institute. The widening circle of young men who have come in contact with him will testify to his Mack Genealogy. 189 skill in imparting the rare treasures of his mind and to the power of his earnest Christian example. In every- thing he was conscientions and thorough. Accuracy was the soul of his scholarship, and he abhorred superficiality. His occasional services from the pulpits of Worcester and vicinity have been marked by seholarliness and good taste in dealing with the heroes of the faith and the prin- ciples of Christianity. It is especially towards his young family and the wide and influential circle of brothers and sisters that sympathy will go out from the very many to whom he has been an inspiring teacher, a judicious advis- er, a worthy example and a kind and helpful friend. His death seems to our mortal vision untimely. With more leisure from the heavj^ cares of his position, we had hoped in his later years for further important contri- butions to our permanent literature, of which we already had an earnest. We honored him, we loved him ; we are too overwhelm- ed with the suddenness of his death fully to realize our loss, but we know he filled a very large place in our life as individuals and as a community.

He became quite interested in land in the South and pur- chased 1,800 acres of cotton land, eight miles from New- bern, N.

Many persons having taken delight in reading the fol- lowing piece it is inserted here for the pleasure of others r THE SPEED OF CALVIN'S COLT. A TROTTING RECORD OF YEARS AGO. Made in Smith Hollow and Never Since Equaled by Any Latter-Day Trotter. (Written by Sergeant A for the Sunday Republican.) Nestled between the rugged hills of Hampshire, in a valley so narrow that a modern Springfield rifle would send a ball clean across it before losing more than half its momentum, peacefully reposes the little hamlet of less than half a dozen houses that is and always has been known as Smith Hollow. The first settlers of this quiet nook, as far as I am informed, were Smiths ; and Smiths begat Smiths with astonishing fecundity, so much so, in- Mack Genealogy. 201 deed, that the narrow confines of tlie valley soon over- flowed and was nnable to hold them all. Hence the re- markable frequency of the Smiths one meets in the west- ern counties of Hampden, Hampshire and Berkshire. I am aware the name of Smith is not especially peculiar to Western Massachusetts, or even New England, and for that matter I should hesitate to place bounds anywhere be- yond which a Smith could not be found ; but I have nothing to do with all that and am not proposing to write a history of the Smith family or a history of all creation— which would amount to much the same thing, but' just simply to touch upon a branch of the family that it has been my fortune to know well and be somewhat connected with. The Smiths of Smith Hollow were Yankees, pure and unadulterated from the beginning. There wasn't a drop of alien blood in them, and their peculiar characteristics descended with unerring certainty from generation to gen- eration ; and their odd remarks and dry ways of putting things won for them a reputation that reached far beyond the grand old hills that the sun rose over and sank behind every day of their lives. It has been my observation that odd and isolated localities are pretty sure to be peopled by those who in their ways are quite as peculiar as their surroundings. I don't know if this notion of mine has any foundation in reality, but if there is anything in it the residents of the Hollow just fitted my theory. It is a queerly located corner of the world, and everything in it is harmonious. There were several brothers of them who were not only" uncles "to the children of all the others, but were known through the surrounding towns as well by that endearing appellation, and Uncle Asa, Uncle Orrin, Uncle Oliver, etc., were much "uncled" all over those parts, whether the ties of consanguinity existed in reality or only in imagination. They were farmers in a farming commu- nity, and the raising of cattle, sheep and other "livestock" formed the basis of their operations. The "fancy breeds" were given a good deal of attention, so that the 202 Mack Genealogy. Shorthorn among cattle, the Southdown and Cotswold among sheep, the Chester-White and Berkshire among swine, with an occasional colt of the Morgan strain, which in those days stood for "top-sawyers" among the equines, — found comfortable quarters in their pens and paddocks, and sweet, nutritious grasses in their sloping pastures. Like many another place of greater pretentions. Smith Hollow has had its booms, its ups and downs, and, though today it is lacking its former glories, time was when it stood for quite a center of interest among the places of resort for the surrounding communities ; when the buzz of the saw and hum of the lathe, was heard in the land ; for there, as far as I know, was turned out by machinery the first "wooden bowl" that ever was. I venture the statement that some of them may still be found that have done good service in the families of New England, for a half -century at least, in the way of "standing the racket" of the chopping of "hash," mince-pie meat and the "stuffin' " for more than one festive occasion. But the wooden-bowl boom, after a term of years, like most every- thing in this world, had its day, and finally "petered out" altogether. It was, however, soon followed by a bigger one that had a more solid basis, apparently, in soapstone. A beetling ledge of rocks that crops out on the western hillside atracted outside attention and was found to be soapstone. A company was formed with headquarters in New York, and henceforth wooden bowls lost their charm for the Smiths of Smith Hollow, and soapstone reigned supreme. Whatever the Smiths "took to" they always took it all in, believed in it, talked, worked and prayed for it, in season and at all times. Their zeal knew no limit and their optimism was above argument. Soapstone, of course, soon assumed magnificent proportions in their minds, and had it been possible for them to imagine a world in which soapstone had no place, it would have been a dreary waste, a howling wilderness. It came to pass, therefore, that the "quarry" gave a wide field for their Mack Genealogy. 203 lively imaginations to run riot in, and dreams of magni- ficent proportions had nothing less substantial than solid soapstone to rest on. For several years it was worked for all there was in it, but the New York stockholders at last got tired of waiting dividends that never came, and finally refused to throw more good money after bad, and so the soapstone boom followed the wooden-bowl boom to the land that is supposed to be the final resting place of blighted hopes. With the passing of wooden bowls and soapstone, the dwellers of this little community were thrown back on pur- suits more purely agricultural, and the "fancy breeds" more than ever engrossed their attention and occupied their time. While cattle, sheep and swine continued to hold first places in their affections, there developed by slow degrees among some of them an itching to possess fleet and speedy "horseflesh"— something like what the regular weekly agricultural paper told about— the" high- bred" Messengers and Morgans, that were reported as doing astonishing feats and showing flights of speed so wonderful that the performances almost shook their faith in the truthfulness of the old standby, the Cultivator, that for a generation, at least, had placed before them solid chunks of wisdom and reliable information that the most skeptical had never dreamed of questioning, much less of doubting. The trotting record of Lady Suffolk in 1845, of 2:29i/2» soon followed by Pelham's record of 2:28, was something that, if "really so," was calculated to stimulate ambition and excite emulation. It there- fore happened naturally enough that an occasional colt or filly, which was supposed to hold in its veins the concentrated blood of the kings and queens of the trotting turf, began to frisk playfully and kick up nimble heels to the infinite satisfaction of "the boys," whom Uncle Asa never referred to as anything else, though some of them were the fathers of families. 204 Mack Genealogy. The special object of adnjiration, the coming phenome- non, the pride of the paddock and hope of the future, over wliich were held many critical inspections and confiden- tial consultations, was "Calvin's colt." "His build," they said, "indicated a 'whirlwind,' " and his "way of stepping" was "pretty slick." That his conformation was peculiar, and his gait indicative of a high rate of speed, was settled among themselves to their own satis- faction and considered a fact established beyond dispute. No visitor was allowed to depart until he had seen Cal- vin 's colt, and his attention called to his ' ' speedy points ' ' and seen him put through his paces in paddock and to halter. Time, instead of detracting from his promise, as it often does detract from men and other animals in this uncertain world, seemed to indicate new brightness for his future, at least, in the opinion of his admirers. He submitted to the "bitting process" with commendable adaptability, and seemed well disposed and sensible through all the intricacies of breaking ; but it was in har- ness, after being hitched to the "family buggy," that promise seemed to fall short of reality. Expectation was more than realized. He passed, as it were, from the hazy realm of speculation to the bright sunshine of certainty. To put it in the mild vocabulary of the Smiths, "he was a regular hummer." A few "outsiders" of the "Thomas" variety suggested that there was a "bloom- in' " sight of difference between talk and t'other thing, and mildly hinted that it would be more ' ' satisfying ' ' to the community at large to put their claims for the horse to the practical proof of a time test. They said that if Calvin's colt really had the speed claimed for him, the public, in the interest of progressive breeding, ought to know it,— and if not, they ought to know it, too. Trotting tracks in those days were unknown outside the great cities or large towns. The back districts had none of them at least, and therefore it was not an easy thing to do, to test the colt's speed under the watch. The situation, Mack Genealogy. ^205 however, was discussed in all its bearings. "The boys" were willing to make a trial if conditions satisfactory to all could be arranged. There is a stretch of road, fairly level and passably smooth, that crooks along the banks of a beautifully clear river for a considerable distance above the Hollow, and to this portion of the highway attention was directed as being the most adaptable to the purpose of a speed trial. The ground was looked over and a mile measured off with a "tape-line," in order to make the distance exact, though Uncle Asa said he could "pace it off near enough. ' ' The program, as arranged, was that Calvin should steer the colt through the mile, while Uncle Asa was to sit by his side in the buggy and "hold the watch." As the two ends of the measured mile could not be seen from one end to the other on account of the turns and twists of the road and the nature of the landscape, this seemed to be the most accurate way of ' ' catching the time ' ' and was satisfactory to all. If there was in those days such a thing as a "stop-watch" none of the parties interested had heard of it, and the only available time piece at hand was an ancient "bull's-eye." This had done duty for many years, and in the rough-and-tumble of ' ' ticking off ' ' the days, hours, minutes and seconds that had gone to make up its existence had unfortunately lost its small second hand,' leaving the hour and minute hands as the only pointers to the flight of time. Such a condition might have discouraged a "modern starter" or an "expert timer ' ' of to-day, but in those days little things like that didn't "cut any figure," and were brushed away as be- longing to the non-essentials of life, quite too unimportant to block the wheels of action. It was plain enough to any ordinary understanding that by keeping close watch of the minute hand the thing could be done near enough to satisfy any one but a "hair-splitting idiot," and nobody interested came under that head by a good deal. Frac- tions of a minute could be "guessed at" pretty close, and 206 Mack Genealogy. split seconds were too insignificant to amount to anything ; therefore the old bull's-eye filled all reasonable require- ments. Just how fast this equine aspirant for local honors was expected to go the mile was a point upon which there was a good deal of variation, ranging from three minutes "flat," to a "good deal better." One of the dryest, who was noted for queer expressions and odd remarks, allowed it would be done "P. D. Q."— which in the Smith vernacular was understood to mean "pretty darn quick. ' ' All the details being arranged, a day was agreed upon for the race against time, and acording to a well- grounded belief in the community that Providence gen- erally favors "honest endeavor, "—the day fixed on was bright and balmy, and conditions satisfactory all 'round. At the appointed hour an interested crowd was on hand to witness the "finish" at least, for that was pretty much all that could be seen of the exhibition, and everything being ready, Calvin with the "time-keeper," in the per- son of Uncle Asa, headed the equine phenomenon "up stream, ' ' and slowly drove toward the starting point. On beyond the starting stake, which had been fixed beside the road to mark the beginning of the mile, they went in order to get "under good headway" at the start. At length they turned and headed for home. As they crossed the line they both marked the ' ' long pinter ' ' of the old bull 's- eye at precisely five minutes past the hour. Away they went, with Calvin reaching far out on the reins with a grasp of determination that argued well for results. The colt, under the incentive of whip, bit, and , voice, with head and tail ' ' way up, ' ' and mane streaming out in graceful waves like a banner, responded nobly to the call, and put in his "biggest licks." The wheels sped round with fearful and ever-increasing velocity; the old family buggy shied, shunted and veered from one side of the road to the other, and bobbed up and down in its mad career with un-heard-of gyrations. Some of the loosely Mack Genealogy. 207 fastened boards of tlie flooring sprung away from their fastenings and merrily jumped up and down with, lively clatter. A yellow cur, belonging to a roadside farm- house, ran after them with frantic yelps, while hens and chickens scurried away for dear life as on they swept. And now they near the goal. Uncle Asa holding fast with one hand his tall silk hat, while the other grasps the bull's- eye in front of him. A shout went up from the crowd as they crossed the line, and all rushed to hear the time de- clared. For once old Father Time was nonplussed, beat, anni- hilated. The fearful scythe that had mowed down count- less ages, dropped for a moment from his spooky fingers, made nerveless with astonishment. The minute-hand of the old bull's-eye registered just five minutes past the hour. Uncle Asa, with a queer look on his face and a droll note, in his voice, said: "It hain't been no time!" An examination of the bull's-eye revealed the fact that it ha*d "run down" for good and all. It had ticked its last tick just as Uncle Asa and Calvin crossed the starting line at five minutes past the hour. Like the wonderful one- hoss shay, that run a hundred years to a day— it had "gi'n out all at once." But the record of that "trial mile," though not recognized by the American or National Trot- ting Associations, still stands the best record for the Hol- low; and the story of the wonderful speed of Calvin's colt will descend to future generations. 458.

Kirby Smith Very Loiv From Fall on DwigM Street- Rails Probably Responsible. Kirby Smith, eighteen, the son of George Smith of Mid- dlefield, and the nephew of George Gray of this city, is dangerously ill at the House of Mercy hospital, as the result of a bicycle accident sustained the evening of No- vember 2 on Dwight street. His skull has been found to be fractured in at least one place, and has been opened to relieve a hemorrhage. It is now feared that he has in- juries at the base of the brain which he may not survive. Young Smith is probably the victim of the Dwight street rail. He was riding down Dwight street at quite a rapid 210 Mack Genealogy. rate on Ms way from evening school. , He has no memory of what happened to him, nor of seeing any one with whom he might have collided. He was found unconscious in the street near Harrison avenue by two men who took him into a tailor shop there. He regained consciousness and some time later was taken home. He woke no one however, although he vomited all night from the shock. The next noon he went to the office of Dr. W. R. Weiser, who found that he had a broken collar bone. Later he began to complain of headaches, and last Monday he was removed to the House of Mercy Hospital. That night he developed symptoms of pressure on the brain. His skull was found to be fractured, and yesterday morn- ing he was operated on and some five ounces of blood found resting on the brain. His condition was very low before the operation, but he rallied immediately. Soon after further symptoms of brain trouble developed, and it is thought that there either is a fracture, or some tear- ing of the brain substance at the base of the brain. The boy has been stopping while in the city at the home of his aunt, Mrs. L. P. Strong at 50 Bancroft street, and has been working for Mrs. Bartlett on Massasoit street. If the accident were caused by the rails, the city can appar- ently be held responsible, through the recent indictment found against it for keeping the rails in place. Kirhy W. Smith, Injured on Dwight Street, Gets $800. City Solicitor Lathrop has this week settled a number of lawsuits against the city, including the $4,000 suit of Kirby W. Smith, who was injured on Dwight street, it was claimed, as the result of being thrown from a wheel by striking the rails. The settlements were mostly for small amounts. The Smith case was compromised for $800. Mr. Lathrop brought the matter before the finance committee of the City Council, and it was decided to set- Mack Genealogy. 211 tie the case for that figure, rather than run the risk of try- ing the case and having a greater verdict awarded. Smith received serious injuries on the head, and is not even now entirely well. 463. Betsey Anna Ingham (249. 169. 137. 3. 1.) b. Jany 23, 1810, Middlefield, Mass., m. at Cato, N.

His contributions to the press and his public addresses have been largely educational translations, scientific and less often political, and he has also written many stories for children. He was the possessor of a cane (until stolen from him) which had been transmitted in the Ingham family from generation to generation for 250 years, and of which he said: "It (the cane) was highly valued by my father, who was always careful to impress on my mind the importance of keeping it safely in the family, to be transmitted from oldest son to oldest.

The following from Springfield Republican, Nov. 15, 1902: He was the oldest of a family of ten children, of whom a brother, Clarkson of Worcester, and three sisters, Mrs. Miranda Olmsted of Mamaroneck, N. Y., Mrs. Louisa Strong of Mittineague and Mrs. Julia Bartlett of this city, shrvive him. The youngest of these sisters is 78 years of age. Mr. Smith was descended from sturdy New England stock, his grandfather having been one of the early settlers of the town of Middlefield. At the age of 26 he married Mary Smith Browning of Middlefield, and eight children were born to them, of whom three sons survive, Justus B., Clarence E. and Wayland F. Smith of Mittineague. He followed the occupation of a farmer in Middlefield until after the death of his wife in 1881, when he gave up active work, after disposing of his farm, and had since lived among his children and with his sister, Mrs. Strong in Mittineague. Quite early in life he united with the Baptist Church in Middlefield and for more than forty years he had sung in its choir. In recent years he had been a member of the State street Baptist Church in this city. Many will recall his pleasant and hearty man- ner of greeting and the free-hearted hospitality of his home on the old farm. He was a stanch Republican and always took an active interest in public affairs and was an influential man in the community. For a few years past his strength had been gradually declining. Two years ago he suffered the loss of his right arm by amputation because of a cancer. About four weeks ago he took to his bed. Toward the last he failed rapidly and died at 2 o'clock yesterday morning. Funeral services will be Mack Genealogy. 217 held tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock at his late home on Smith avenue, also at the church in Middlefield Monday afternoon, and the burial will be at Middlefield.

Mar. 28, 1896, of acute Bright 's disease at the home of his half-sister in Brooklyn, N. Y. He dropped his middle name and was always known as Edward King. An old friend, Alvan S. Southworth, long time secretary of the American Geographical Society, author of a book of travels in Egypt and the Soudan, also a well-known correspondent "years ago" of the New York Herald, says: "Edward King had an experience and successes apart as a reporter, an editor, a traveling and resident correspondent, a voluminous author, and oftentimes a poet, novelist, dramatist and critic. The work he actually did m the 32 years he was an unceasing toiler in produc- ing manuscript was prodigious. He began with a style that was exact in grammatical and rhetorical construc- tion, and this feature he^ was proud in maintaining to the close of his editorial career a few days ago. As a youth he had remarkable opportunities and improved them well. Still in his teens, he was a day and midnight rover among the fascinating scenes of the French capital during the last years of the empire, and his observations he em- bodied in a bright volume, which had a large circulation at the time— "My Paris." During the Commune Mr. King rendered valuable and conscientious service to his paper, the Boston Journal, which that publication, some- times in the same issue with King^s correspendence, had the singular proioensity to treat with levity and sarcasm. King was one of the notable group of correspondents of the time of which I write, many of whom became world-famous by distinct and separate achievements. One was Henry M. Stanley, with whom a correspondence was kept up to within a few days ago ; another MacGrahan, who went to Khiva with Kauffman, across the steppes of Central Asia; another Eugene Schuyler, the biographer 222 Mack Genealogy. of Peter the Great; John P. Jackson, who has escaped unscathed after perilous campaigns in southern Europe and Arctic Asia, and Archibald Forbes and Col. W. H. Gilder. Of all English-writing journalists I think King was the surest of his facts and the most lucid in their set- ting forth of any correspondent at the French capital. He knew all the celebrities of Paris personally, and his engaging address and fresh, intellectual face made him welcome in soine of the most attractive salons. When the siege ended by the capitulation of Paris in February, 1871, a newly elected national Assembly gath- ered at Bordeaux to settle the terms of peace on the part of France. It was a very notable body, and thither hur- ried nearly all of the traveling correspondents of Europe. King was then the most active and in official circles the most influential of all because he was about the only one of us who could greet every celebrity familiarly and re- ceive exclusive favors for the purpose of obtaining early news. I took breakfast with him one morning in Bor- deaux during the midst of the parliamentary excitement. A great day was foreshadowed in the national Assembly, where as members were many firebrands like Gambetta, Rochefort and Garibaldi, daily shouting for a continua- tion of the war — subjugation or not for France. While King and I were thus engaged at the Hotel de France a man in a short sack coat of indifferent appear- ance, close shaven face and very meek bearing, ap- proached my companion and laid two tickets of admission to the Chamber beside his plate. "See here," I said, taking him to be a commissionaire, "take this napoleon (handing him twenty francs) and do the same for me ! ' ' King looked around, flushed, rose, and with a ghastly smile introduced me to Louis Blanc— the foremost orator and publicist in France. No harm was done ; on the con- trary, this incident put me en rapport with many of King's distinguished friends. Mack Genealogy. 223 Finally, let me say, Edward King was essentially a journalist-author. Had he devoted himself to letters and gone in pursuit of a permanent place in literature, I believe he was as well equipped and with as adequate in- tellectual weapons as any of those who are serious writers of volumes bound to live who have made their mark in this country. But it was the ever vulpine visage at the pane which kept him anchored in the fruitless field in which he began an ambitious boy of 15 years of age. Mr. King was a native of Middlefield, Mass., and be- gan newspaper work in the office of the Springfield Union at the age of 16. From that paper he went to the Spring- field Republican, where he made a reputation as a bril- liant reporter and descriptive writer before he had reached the age of 21. His first noteworthy writing was from Paris in 1867, where he went to describe the great Exposition of that year for the EepubUcan. In 1870 he went to the service of the Boston Journal, and returned to Paris, where he made his home for nearly twenty years, although he raade frequent visits to this country for social or literary purposes. He figured prominently as a war correspondent in the Balkans in 1877-78, and became an intimate friend of Henry M. Stanley and Archibald Forbes. His principal works published are "My Paris, or French Character Sketches" (Boston, 1868); "Ken- tucky's Love" (1873); "The Great South" (Hartford, 1875); "Echoes From the Orient," poems (London, 1879); "French Political Leaders" (New York, 1882); "The Gentle Savage" (Boston, 1883) ; "Europe in Storm and Calm" (Springfield, 1885); "The Golden Spike" (Boston, 1886), and "A Venetian Lover" (London, 1887). Mr. King returned to America about eight years ago, and for the past five years had made his home in New York City. He was employed during most of his time on the New York Journal. One of Mr. King's greatest achievements was the discovery of George W. Cable. Dr. Holland, Mr. Gilder's predecessor, selected King as a [15J 224 Mack Genealogy. "promising, energetic and able young man," to write a series of articles on "The Great South," for Scribner's Monthly, in 1873. King traveled all through the South in search of data, and among other places visited New Or- leans. Here he became acquainted with Mr. Cable, and was so impressed with the latter 's talent that he took it upon himself to forward some of Mr. Cable's manu- scripts to Dr. Holland, with the strongest kind of recom- mendation. In this way the author of "Old Creole Days" came before the public. , At the time of his death the Springfield Republican contained the following notice: The burial of Edward King took place at Bridgeport, Ct., yesterday afternoon, none being present save his immediate family. At the funeral, held on Sunday afternoon at the home of his brother-in-law, John McGhie, his home for several years, scripture was read and prayer offered by Rev. Mr. Ad- ams, Presbyterian. A few friends from New York at- tended, together with some neighbors. Mr. King's sur- viving relatives and connections are Mr. and Mrs. Mc- Ghie and their little son Philip ; Dr. George C. Eighme of Bridgeport, the death of whose wife, his half-sister, Mary, two months to a day before his own, was a blow severely felt by Mr. King; Harry K. Fisher, his half- brother, now a law student in Boston University; and Ella, wife of William W. Porter of this city, his step-sis- ter, with three children. Mr. King began to fail in health, it is now felt, very shortly after the funeral of Mrs. Eighme, and had been under the doctor's care. His hair had since that time become white ; before it had not a touch of gray. The final trouble was acute Bright 's dis- ease. Mr. King 's great devotion to his literary work, coupled with too little exercise, will account for his death. He left behind him, besides the volume of poems of which men- tion has been made, a novel in which Napoleon Bonaparte was a principal figure, so nearly completed that it is prob- Mack Genealogy. 226 able tliat the last part can be made out from the sketches and outlines which he always prepared beforehand, and the book published. He also left finished, a volume of short stories. A novel in verse, named ' ' Paul Groine, ' ' is half done, but had been laid aside for years and is a hope- less fragment. Several miscellaneous poems and stories remain, and he had planned a novel of the second empire with Napoleon III. as the center of interest, which was wanted by a publishing house. Most melancholy of all these evidences of a life of what was really excessive in- dustry, there is found the careful synopsis of the book which he meant to make his best, ' ' The Hotel Cosmos.

Then one of the large crowd » Did see the bear and shoot at him. And made a noise which was loud. But this man only wounded him ; But when the next man shot. He hit the bear and killed him Right on the very spot. And then they all went and skinned him ; Two feasts were made from his meat.

From Hartford Courant Feb. 7, 1903 : New Haven, Feb. 6.— Mrs. Tracy Peck of No. 124 High street, wife of the well known professor at Yale, left her home yesterday morning to do an errand and her family could learn nothing of her whereabouts until her body was found this morning in Fort Hale Park at Alor- ris Cove. From the condition of the body, Mrs. Peck had evidently fallen from the fifty-foot cliff to the rocky ground below, and had been dead for several hours where found. Where she had been wandering through the night 232 Mack Genealogy. is unknown. The body was found by Gilbert Van Sickles, an East Haven market gardner, who had started on a clamming trip along shore, and was identified an hour later by Charles Francis, now a law school student and last year's football manager, who with a companion had been assigned to Morris Cove in the systematic search directed by Secretary Stokes of Yale. Mrs. Peck had re- cently suffered from the grip, and for several weeks had been subject to attacks of melancholia. It is probable that her death occurred during a temporary mental de- rangement. She left her home yesterday morning about 10 o'clock, apparently to go shopping, in ordinary street costume, and with only a small sum of money in her purse. Medical Examiner Bartlett announced that the immedi- ate cause of Mrs. Peck's death was due to a fracture of the skull. Professor Peck notified the police last night of his wife's absence. This morning it was announced at the devotional exercises in Battell Chapel at Yale that a mass meeting would be held in Dwight Hall immediately after- wards. The main room of the building was crowded at this meeting, at which Professor W. L. Phelps presided. He asked for volunteers to search for Mrs. Peck. The students immediately afterwards reported in squads to Anson Phelps Stokes, Jr., secretary of the university, who divided the city and the suburbs into sections and detailed parties of from three to a dozen undergraduates to search thoroughly every section. Most of the students left on foot, others on bicycles, some on polo ponies, some in light carriages and others in automobiles. Eecita- tions were practically suspended for the day and the squads were directed to report back not later than 4 p. m. When the body was found word was sent to as many squads as could be reached. Mrs. Peck was Miss Lillie H. Hall. She was born in Hadleigh, England, coming to this country and taking up her residence in Brooklyn when a young woman. She Mack Genealogy. 233 married Professor Tracy Peck in that city December 22, 1870.

He was the only son among the children of Franklin Greene Comstock, and was a connection of General Na- thaniel Greene of Rhode Island, a Eevolutionary hero. His mother was Tryphena Tracy Comstock, daughter of Gamaliel R. Tracy of Colchester. His parents and family moved when he was 10 years old to East Hampton to the farm on Miller's Hill owned by Christopher and Jabez Comstock and known as the Lovell Hall place. They remained there until about 1825. In that year Master Comstock entered Partridge's Mili- tary Academy at Middletown. Among the most vivid memories of his school days was that of the funeral of Commodore McDonough, the hero of the battle of Platts- burg. In 1828 he and his sister Juliana entered Wes- leyan Academy in Wilbraham, Mass. After two years he returned to teach school in East Haddam and Chatham. In those days the village pedagogue "boarded 'round," living one week at the home of the star scholar and the next, may be, at that of the school dunce. He received the salary, hardly munificent even for the '20 's, of $10 a month and ' ' found. ' ' In the following winter he taught Mack Genealogy. 235 in East Hampton in the little school which he attended some five years previous. The little ones who were then learning their A B C 's had vaulted up into the first class in arithmetic. In the summer ensuing he taught in a school at Middle Haddam in connection with Jonathan Olmsted. By this time he had worked up to $18 a month. Later he taught in Portland. In 1832, Mr. Comstock's father purchased a half inter- est in the New England Review, a weekly published in Hartford, by Samuel Hanmer. Mr. Comstock was summoned from his school in Portland and entered the Review office, taldng a desk under the supervision of the editor, Charles Chapman, father of Charles R. Chapman, subsequently mayor of Hartford. John Greenleaf ^Vliittier had just concluded his editorial con- nection with the paper. Franklin G. Comstock was asso- ciated with Mr. Chapman as editor. In 1832, Hartford was a city of about 10,400, a little larger than the Manchester of the present day, but not so urban. Business was, transacted for the most part east of Market street. The stage coach was the principal means of passenger transportation. Hotels, or, rather, taverns were few. It was at the Exchange Coffee House, long since disappeared and forgotten, that the Messrs. Comstock boarded (for $3 a week, by the way) during their first season in the Charter Oak City. The location of it seems to be forgotten unless it was on the corner of Morgan (then Bridge) and Market streets. The Ex- change Coffee' House was kept by a Selah Treat. While boarding at it Mr. Comstock roomed with a young man of exactly his own age. This was George Roberts, father of President George Roberts of the Hartford Carpet Company. It was in 1832 that the first daily in Hartford was pub- lished, the daily edition of the New England Review. This was four years after the New Haven Palladium issued a daily edition. The New Haven Courier-Journal 236 Mack Genealogy. also issued a daily in 1832, but began its edition some months after the Review. Mr. Prentice was editor of the Courant, which issued a daily four years later. Mr. A. E. Burr was on the point of completing his apprentice- ship in the Courant 's office. Gideon Welles, destined to be Lincoln's Secretary of the Navy, was editor and owner of The Times, then a weekly. John Russell, father of Dr. Russell, was also an owner. The Daily Review consisted of four pages, each 11x151/^ inches. It had four columns to the page. As it was printed years before the first railroad entered Hart- ford and before the electric fluid was harnessed to tele- graph wires, it relied for its general news on the mail and that came by stage coach or in rare instances by "pony express." The Review printing office was first in a small room on the third floor of a building standing on what is now Ex- change Corner. It was later in a building owned by Sam- uel Alcott on lower State street. Later still it was in the old Catlin block. Mr. Comstock obtained for the daily a circulation of 700 copies, considered immense in those days. He resolved to obtain a copy of President Jack- son's message and print it in advance of his esteemed contemporaries. Going to New York, he arranged, for a pecuniary consideration, with the Journal of Commerce, which had obtained galley proofs ahead of the delivery, that the sheets should be sent by boat to New Haven. Then he paid James Goodwin, father/ of Francis Goodwin, the munificent sum of $20 to drive down to New Haven, meet the side-wheeler and bring the message in hot haste to Hartford. The Review was one of the earliest papers to come out in favor of General William Henry Harrison as a candi- date for President. In 1833 all of the Comstock family moved to Hartford and rented James Gordon's place on Morgan street, the third house from Main street and on the south side of Mack Genealogy. 237 the street, and resided in it until 1836, wlien they removed to Wethersfield, Mr. Comstoek having sold the Review, which was purchased by politicians in the interest of the Whig party. In 1837 he published the Silk Culturist and Farmers' Manual. The great mulberry craze was then beginning. New England had never seen anything like it. Farmers went wild over the project of planting mul- berry trees and obtaining silk from the cocoon. Mr. Comstoek became associated with Christopher Colt, father of Colonel Samuel Colt, with an office in an old stone building on Front street, and started in the mul- berry silk business. In one year they cleared $10,000. In a short time the craze ran its course. Mr. Comstoek purchased the seed business of James L. Belden of Wethersfield and took into partnership Butler N. Strong, who was conducting a foundry at the site of what is Brown Brothers ' bell manufactory at East Hamp- ton. Subsequenth' he went to Cuba to grow mulberry trees shipped from Philadelphia. He met Commodore Vanderbilt at Matanzas, where he also met two men in the same business, with whom he joined forces. He bought a quantity of trees for $500 and shipped them home, sell- ing a part for $2,500. Returning he utilized his knowl- edge of printing for devising an original "border" for seed bags. With a stock of seed boxes he started out with a pair of horses in winter and laid out a route as far as Springfield, Vt. This was the beginning of the seed box trade. In 1845, after the death of his father, Mr. Comstoek divided his business and took in Henry Ferre and Daniel Strong, organizing a stock company, under the style of Comstoek, Ferre & Co. Mr. Comstoek traveled in the South for the company in days when traveling was done slowly. A trip up the Mississippi on the "Natchez" oc- cupied two weeks, but then it cost him only $15. He started a branch of his business in Urbana, Ohio. In 1857 he loaned money at three per cent per month at St. Paul. 238 Mack Genealogy, He bought the St. Anthony land at St. Paul, and a tract of seventy-five acres at Urbana, which multiplied im- mensely in value. In the meantime the business of the company increased rapidly. There was a dividend of sis per cent the first year, and thereafter a dividend of ten per cent semi-annually. On November 12, 1857, Mr. Comstock made his home in East Hartford, buying the Henry Olmsted place for $7,000 cash down, though it was the year of the great panic. He had sold out most of his seed company stock. Since that year he and his family have occupied a leading position in that town, socially, financially, and politically. His character was sterling and his judgment sound. In disposition he was genial, and one of his chief pleas- ures in his last years was detailing old-time incidents. He was a treasury of reminiscences and anecdotes of earlier days. Those who had the privilege of listening to these were charmed by his genial humor as well as in- terested in the pictures which he drew of life in the mid- dle decades of the century. In 1881 he built Memorial Hall on Main street, in East Hartford, in memory of his wife and his daughter Amy, who died shortly before. His sons, William Gr., Jr., and Frederick, have finished the large brick block on Main street, which is the largest business building in the town. Mr. Comstock 's home, with its park-like grounds and spacious and beautiful mansion, is one of the most attractive places in East Hartford. There were eight children. + 958. Franklin Greene, b.

The following was from a paper, summer of 1897: A nice pair of chestnut horses were killed by a motor car on the third-rail track at the Flatbush Avenue cross- 242 Mack Genealogy. ing, Thursday afternoon. Mr. J. L. Tracy, who owned the turnout, was alone in the carriage, but was uninjured. He had a miraculous escape. Mr. Tracy is a gentleman 76 years of age. He lives at the United States Hotel, with his wife. Mrs. Tracy was not feeling well, Thursday, and did not accompany her husband on his afternoon ride. Mr. Tracy had been out to Charter Oak Park, and was returning to the city when the accident happened. It was the 4 o'clock car from Hartford which struck the team. Mr. Tracy can give no account of how it happened, but from what can be learned, he didn't observe the approach of the car, and the motorman, who saw the team approaching the cross- ing, supposed the driver would stop his horses. The car continued on its way, so did the horses, and the horses and car collided. The nigh horse received the blow from the car. It was struck in the head and disemboweled. The blow broke both whiffletrees and cleared the horses from the carriage. The horses were forced along the track for fifty yards before the car was stopped. The off horse, Mr. Tracy 's favorite pacer, ' ' Charlie, ' ' was killed by the shock and burns on his side. The harness was badly cut up, but the carriage, aside from the breaking of the whif- fletrees, was not injured, and the pole was not broken. Mr. Tracy was dazed from the shock, but otherwise did not suffer from the accident. The car was in charge of Conductor Lambert and Motorman Boyle. Mr. Tracy was brought to the city on the car, and took a carriage at the Union depot for the hotel. He was able to walk from the carriage to the hotel, but it was some time before he was himself again. Then he wanted some one to tell him about the accident; he couldn't. He made arrange- ments with Charlie Strant, his liveryman, to bury the horses, gather up his blankets and harness and bring the carriage to the stables. Today he is as well as usual. Mack Genealogy. 243 Mr. T. H. Fennell, superintendent of the western divis- ion of the New England Eailroad, on whose territory the accident occurred, said this morning to a Times reporter, that there wasn't much to say about the accident. The track was straight for four miles ; the motorman saw the team approaching; he kept going; such things are com- mon ; an engineer frequently sees drivers and pedestrians approaching the track, but he does not stop his train— if he did they would give the engineer the laugh. It was probably so Thursday. The motorman saw the team, but took it for granted that the driver would "look out for the engine when the bell rings." Mr. Tracy evi- dently didn't see the "engine," until his horses were on the track. Then he impulsively pulled up— too late to save his horses, but just in time to save his life. "If we stopped our trains for every person we saw adjacent to our tracks, the traveling public would be slow in reaching their destination, ' ' said Superintendent Fen- nell. "The motorman supposed Mr. Tracy would look out for himself. When the motorman saw his mistake it was too late to stop the car. ' ' "In how short a distance can a motor car be stopped, going at full speed?" asked the reporter. "I don't know." "Never tried it?" "No." Mr. Tracy is a retired business man. During the war he accumulated wealth in Stamford in the manufacture of shoes. He has a son, John R. Tracy, living there. Mr. and Mrs. Tracy have frequently visited Hartford during the past ten years, and put up at the "States," and with the Comstocks of East Hartford, who are relatives. Mr. Tracy is fond of driving, and travels a good deal in this way, putting up at hotels over night. Mr. Tracy thought a good deal of his horses, and valued them at $1,200. The off horse, "Charlie," was a particular favorite. He was a pacer. The nigh animal 244: Mack Genealogy. was a trotter, but the difference was not apparent to many. The pair were well matched and could go in '35. Mr. Tracy's carriage was noticeable for having two whip sockets. In one the whip rested, while the other was pro- vided to hold his cane, which he had with him always. The accident created a sensation among the passengers on the car. There were two children. 1000.

Sketc'h of a "True Daughter" of the Revolution— She- Came of a Long-Lived Family, But Outlived Them All —Her Faculties Well Preserved. (Special to The Courant.) Mrs. Abigail Foote Loomis died this morning of old age, the oldest person in this part of the state and probably in the whole state. She leaves two daughters and two sons, Mrs. E. A. Bliss of Hartford, Mrs. Philo Bevin of this place, with whom she lived, and Israel F. and Milton Loomis of West Chester, besides eleven grandchildren and eleven great-grandchildren. "Grandma" Loomis, as her friends and relatives de- lighted in calling her, was born in West Chester, June 26, 1798, and therefore lived within the lifetime of every President of the United States, being one and one-half years old when President Washington died. In her father's diary appears the following: "Tuesday, June 26, 1798, Abigail, a daughter, born at 10 o'clock in the morning." Mrs. Loomis was a direct descendant of Nathaniel Foote, one of the first settlers of Wethersfield, and Thomas Kimberly, a pioneer settler of New Haven. She had been a member of the Congregational Church, in West Chester for over 75 years. In 1826 she married Alfred Isham Loomis. They celebrated their golden wedding in 1876. Mr. Loomis died in 1882. With the exception of John Day Bigelow, "Grandma" Loomis was the only member of the Foote family wlio attained the age of 100 years. She came, however, of a long-lived family, her mother, Mrs. Nathaniel Foote, reaching the age of 95, and her grandfather, Nathaniel 246 Mack Genealogy. Foote, being 99 when lie died. Two brothers, Israel and David, lived to be over 90 years old. In the fall of 1897 to "Grandma" Loomis was pre- sented a gold spoon, by Mrs. 0. V. Coffin and Mrs. James H. Bunce of Middletown in behalf of the National Soci- ety D. A. R., Washington, D. C. She was also made a member of the James Wadsworth Chapter, D. A. K., Middletown. Her daughter, Mrs. Philo Bevin, joined at the same time. By the death of Miss Anna Maria Benton of Windsor, Jmown as "Auntie" Benton, in her 102d year, "Grandma" Loomis was left the oldest living "true daughter" in the state.' Sunday, June 26, 1898, she cele- brated her 100th birthday. She was the recipient of many presents, among them being 100 bride roses, pink, yellow and white, entwined with maiden hair fern, which were sent by members of James Wadsworth Chapter, D. A. R., Middletown. She remarked that that probably would be her last birthday. As a valentine, the members of the Stamford Branch, ' ' New York Tribune ' ' Sunshine Society, sent her this year a handsome knitted shawl of many colors. She was the oldest member of this society and was held in high esteem. Up to a short time before her last illness "Grandma" Loomis was able to read without glasses and frequently passed the hours away in knitting, one of her favorite avocations. Death of Mrs. Abigail Foote Loomis. Entered into her rest at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. Philo Bevin, at East Hampton, Conn., Mrs. Abigail Foote Loomis, June 6, 1899. So passed away this long and useful life like the linger- ing of an Arctic twilight. Her whole life was as near a heaven on earth, as it is possible for a human being to experience. "Always rejoicing" was the motto of her daily life. Self seemed eliminated from her thoughts and l^urposes. At the age of 101 years she enters into rest. To the writer the last words that he heard from her lips will ever be a sweet benison. "This is my boy," pro- Mack Genealogy. 247 nouncing my name, and repeating her favorite hymn in air its stanzas, ' ' There is a happy, happy land, far, far away, Wliere saints in glory stand, bright, bright as day, ' ' then her eyes closed bedimmed by the breath of the only foe that mortals cannot overcome. The loved and loving mother fell into that dreamless sleep which knows no waking, for death had kissed her eyelids. She loved everything that was pure and beautiful. With a heart loyal to a profession which she made before the altar of Christ^ full three-quarters of a century ago, she gave alms to the needy, and she was like perpetual sunshine to all her household. "Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all, ' ' can be truly said of her, as led by the unseen, certain messenger she entered into the verities of a blessed immortality. Should all to whom she had done some loving act place flowers in her grave, no clod of earth would find a place therein to hide her well- loved form in its last resting place on earth. I. F. L.

Azariah Smith, the members of Good Will Sunday School desire to make some expression of our love for him and our sor- row for all who held him dear; therefore. Resolved, that, although we know that our words are of no avail, we ex- tend our sympathy to his family and pray that God may prove himself indeed a God of comfort and strength. Resolved, that while we realize our great loss as a Sun- day School, we know that our brother has received infi- nite gain. He who lived among us such a beautiful life of prayer and trust is truly at home amid the glories of his Father's house, and there remains for us the memory and influence of his sweet example and the inspiration of the thought that his prayers and services are not inter- rupted but perfected.

Francis Emory Warren, U. S. Senator. Pages could be written of his career, but I will give a condensed report : Senator Francis E. Warren was born at Hinsdale, Mass., June 20, 1844, son of Joseph S. and Cynthia E. Warren. His ancestry is traced in direct line to the Warrens who landed on the New England shores when the Pilgrim Fathers were painfully laying the founda- tions of the great republic. To this family belonged, among other noted men, Gen. Joseph Warren, the hero of Bunker Hill. Young Warren's boyhood was spent on the farm, his school days being limited to a few weeks' attendance in the middle of each winter at the district school. At fif- teen, after the death of his mother, he began to feel the need of a more liberal education. To secure it he went to work for a dairyman at small wages in order to obtain funds to pay for his board while attending the Hinsdale Academy, where he went to school until the breaking out 264 Mack Genealogy. of the Civil War, when at the age of seventeen, he enlisted in the famous Forty-ninth Massachnsefct? Volunteers. As a private soldier Mr. Warren was with his regiment at Plains' Store, Donaldsonville, and in the engagement before Port Hudson. During the siege of the latter place the Forty-ninth was ordered to furnish a contingent of volunteers from each company for the dangerous duty of preceding the column of attack and filling up with fascines the ditch in front of the enemy's breastworks. Warren was one of the volunteers. As the ' ' forlorn hope, " as it was termed, marched upon the field, fire was opened upon it from all the opposing batteries, and tlie loss was ter- rible, three-fourths of the detachment being killed or wounded. The fascine which Warren carried was struck by a cannon ball, and though not seriously injured, he fell, stunned by the concussion, and lay for several hours un- conscious. In later years congress recognized those who had taken part in this affair, and awarded the survivors medals of honor. When he was mustered out of service, Mr. Warren re- turned to his native town, where he accepted employment as a superintendent of a stock farm. He remained here until the spring of 1868, and became an expert in the work of grading and ditching, milling, blacksmithing and car- pentering. At the age of twenty-three Mr. Warren de- cided to go west. For several months in 1868 he worked as superintendent of construction on the line of the Chi- cago, Eock Island and Pacific Railway, and in June of the same year, at an urgent request of Mr. A. R. Con- verse, he went to Cheyenne to take care of the latter 's several stores in that frontier town. At that time Chey- enne was a place of tents, cabins and shacks. The ter- minus of the Union Pacific had moved westward, and there was a general feeling that the existence of the place was but a matter of a few months, and that it would soon become one of the "dead cities of the plains," marking the advancing line of the railroad. Mr. Warren did not Mack Genealogy. 265 share in the feeling, and he desired to make Cheyenne his permanent home. During the thirty-three years which have since elapsed, he has been one of the most essential factors in the business and political life, not only of the city of Cheyenne, but of the state of Wyoming. In 1871 Mr. Warren became a partner of his employer, the firm for six years being Converse & Warren; at the expiration of that time he purchased Mr. Converse's in- terest. A few years later the business was enlarged and incorporated under the title of the F. E. Warren Mercan- tile Company, which now conducts the largest mercantile establishment in Wyoming. Between 1873 and 1880 Mr. Warren devoted much of his time to the raising of sheep and cattle. During this time he was a member of the stock firms of Gruiterman & Warren, Miner & Wavreu, and Post & Warren. In 1883 he organized the ^Varren Live Stock Company, which is now one of the most ex- tensive sheep owners in the West. In addition to his mer- cantile and live stock interests, Mr. Warren is identified with the Cheyenne Light, Fuel and Power Company, as its president, and he has extensive real estate interests in Cheyenne. During his thirty-three years residence in Wyoming Mr. Warren has filled acceptably a number of positions of trust and honor. In 1872 he was elected a city trustee. Before he was thirty years old he was elected to the ter- ritorial legislature, serving as president of the upper house. In 1884 he declined the nomination for congress, unanimously tendered him by the Republican party of Wyoming. For six years he was treasurer of the terri- tory. In 1885 he was elected mayor of Cheyenne, and while holding that position was ai^pointed governor of Wyoming by President Arthur. One of the first tests of Governor Warren's executive ability was the anti-Chi- nese riots at Rock Springs in 1885. By prompt and de- cisive action to protect the Chinese citizens of Rock Springs and Evanston, he won the warm commendations, 266 Mack Genealogy, not only of ttie citizens of Wyoming, but of the people of tlie entire United States. Mr. Warren continued to act as governor under the Cleveland administration until, in his report, he strongly criticized the policy of Land Com- missioner Sparks, when he was removed. He was reap- pointed by President Harrison in 1889, and in 1890 was elected governor at the tirst state election held after Wyoming was admitted to statehood. At the i^eeting of the first state legislature, Governor Warren and Ex-Congressman J. M. Carey were elected United States Senators ; both were sworn into office De- cember 1, 1890, and their terms decided by lot, Mr. War- ren drawing the short term, which expired March 4, 1893. In 1895 Mr. Warren was again elected to the senate, re- ceiving the unanimous vote of the Rej)ublican members of the legislature. At the commencement of the present year, 1901, practically all the members of the Wyoming state legislature wrote to Senator Warren, who was in attendance upon the second session of the Fifty-sixth con- gress, advising him that, while a personal visit from him would be appreciated, he should not feel under any neces- sity to return to Wyoming on account of the coming elec- tion by the legislature of a senator for the six-year term commencing March 4, 1901. Senator Warren remained in Washington and was elected his own successor for the term which will expire March 3, 1907. Although he has been in congress but a comparatively short time. Senator Warren is one of the most influential members, and is classed with the Republican leaders of the senate. In the Fifty-fifth congress his speech in ad- vocacy of the army reorganization measure attracted the attention of the country. His Herculean efforts to secure government aid for western irrigation works during the closing hours of that session brought the needs of the West more forcibly and distinctly before congress and the country at large than they had ever been before, and Mack Genealogy. 267 even aroused the West itself to greater efforts to sconre what of right belongs to its people. By his speech on this occasion, Senator Warren advanced the cause of irri- gation many years with the slow-moving body, the con- gress of the United States. Senator Warren is chairman of the committee on Claims, one of the important and hard working commit- tees of the senate. He also has a place upon each of the following important committees : Appropriations, Agri- culture and Forestry, Irrigation and Beclamation of Arid Lands, Military Affairs, Public Buildings and Grounds, and Industrial Expositions. Some clippings may be of interest, one a tribute to Mrs. Warren : (From Kate Field's Washington.) "Wyoming will send back Ex-Governor Ex-Senator Francis E. Warren to the senate of the United States. He was nominated by acclamation and will succeed Sena- tor Corey. Senator Warren has the best of helpmeets in his wife, whose kind heart has endeared her to all who have ever enjoyed her hospitality." Wyoming's Senatorial Twins. (From Kate Field's Washington.) The new Senatorial pair from Wyoming have already been christened "The Heavenly Twins"— not that Messrs. Warren and Clarke are expected to furnish explo- sive denouements on the Angelica-Diavolo order, but be- cause of their good looks and other personal attributes. Warren, -who is a returning Senator after a brief rest, was one of the tallest and largest men in the upper Lou,se when here before, and always was pointed out by strang- ers as a handsome man whom they wanted to know about at once. Clarke, who has' already put in an appearance, bids fair to prove a good investment for the photograph- ers. Already there is the usual demand for his pictures that determines the handsomest men in Congress. He is 268 Mack Genealogy. so good looking that in his own state he is often called the Apollo of Wyoming. This will be the handsomest Senatorial pair. A Senator and Potatoes. Senator Warren of Wyoming owes his first start in life to a hopeless-looking potato patch. He was the son of a M'assaehusetts farmer who didn't take stock in education and the boy was tied, up to hard farm work. With his mother 's aid he had received some elementary schooling, but anything beyond that seemed hopeless, because every hour of his time was claimed. One spring there were a few seed potatoes left over after planting and Mr. War- ren told the lad he might stick them in for himself in a very rocky patch of land, provided he gave in return a cer- tain number of bushels for the use of the soil. It was a hard deal, but young Warren's grit rose to the occasion. The land was too rocky to plough, if he had had means to do so, but he broke it up somehow, and stuck seed potatoes in wherever he could. He had no hopes of making anything off his venture, but drought and every disease known to the potato world appeared that year, the crop was a complete failure, and Warren was too dis- heartened even to dig his spoils. His father, however, insisted on it, though there was nothing but nubbins to re- ward them. Then Warren in despair lifted the edge of the trouble- some grass with a crowbar, and there were potatoes fit for a king, in spite of the fact that they were an inferior vari- ety. They were big and fine, and lots of them. The result was that the boy managed to rescue enough money to start him at Wilbraham Academy, and from that time on he bent things to his own advantage, no matter what the difficulties.— Kate Field's Washington. Mack Genealogy. 269 The Senator Once Slept in a Box. (Washington Post.) Nowadays, or rather nowanights, Senator Warren of Wyoming sleeps on a brass bedstead. There was a time though, when the Senator's bed was a pine bos filled with hay. That was many years ago, when the Senator was a boy in Massachusetts, living in an old-fashioned farm- house. The kitchen fireplace was so large that it took a horse to haul in the back log, which was almost half a tree. There were no stoves then, only a large crane with a pot hanging upon the hooks. The attic was the bedroom of the future Senator and his brother. It was a cold room, with crevices through which the snow drifted, and the boys came to the conclusion that they could find some- thing warmer than the bed on the floor. They took a large box, filled it with hay, got inside, pulled the cover of the box over them, and slept like tops. "In those days," said Senator Warren, "I used to get up at 3 o'clock in the morning, and feed the cows, clean the barn, split wood, get my breakfast, and then walk three miles to school. ' ' It is rather interesting, says a writer in the Washing- ton Post, to glance over the floor of the Senate and House and note the various decorations or buttons which appear in the lapels of the coats of senators and representatives. Senator Warren of Wyoming, for instance, is never with- out the tiny bow of red, white and blue ribbon that de- notes him to be the possessor of a medal of honor awarded him by Congress for gallant action in battle, a distinction which is only shared by one other senator. Senator Warren as a Slugger. (From the New York Commercial.) One of the members who rushed in to separate Senator Tilhnan and Senator McLaurin the other day was Senator Warren of Wyoming, who, as all the world knows, has some idea of the sheep and wool industry as well as of law-making. 270 Mack Genealogy. The incident could hardly have failed to recall to him rather vividly a scene that was enacted in the Wyoming Territorial Legislature when he was its presiding officer not so many years ago. On that occasion two members, after the free and easy manners of Western statesmen, wanted to secure a bill that was on the clerk's desk and make away with it. The stalwart legislators when they attempted to seize the bill were confronted by the clerk. A struggle ensued. Senator Warren, as soon as he grasped the situation, leaped from his chair and precipi- tated himself upon the combatants. Single-handed, he separated the three men, rescued the bill, put the clerk back at his desk, and sent the two legislators to their seats. Then he resumed his place as presiding officer. ' ' The House will come to order, ' ' was his sole remark. Not a Junketing Trip. (From the Hartford Courant.) What Happened to a Congressional Committee — Their Hard Fate in Kentucky. Wading Streams, Prying Out Wagons With Rails, Soaked by Eain, Half Frozen and WlioUy Miserable. A Washington dispatch to the New York Sun thus tells of the adventures of the party which went out to attend the funeral of the late Representative Kendall of Ken- tucky. The story begins at Morehead, Ky., where a hearse and six light spring wagons were ready for the party : The hearse proved too small to hold the cherry bos that encased the coffin and another wagon had to be pro- vided. By the advice of a native, each Senator and Rep- resentative bought a pair of high rubber boots, "comfort- ers," and woolen socks, such as Jerry Simpson would not have disdained. Then they packed their grips in the coffin box and started for their drive of thirty miles— all but Congress- man Fellows and the messenger, who were left behind because there was no room for them. Mack Genealogy. 271 One of the two drivers had a big bottle of "mountain dew" which he constantly offered to the Congressmen. Scarcely had the line of wagons started through the rivers of mud into which the road was transformed than it be- came necessary to make a breach in the fence and take to the fields in order to find bottom for the wheels. Two miles out they struck the Triplett Eiver, running bank full at a six-mile gait, and as they took to the water each Congressman said a little prayer under his breath and put his feet on the dashboard or on the seat under him. The water was just high enough to come into the car- riage bodies. They followed up this stream a short distance of the way in water from one to three feet deep. Soon they came to the foot of the first of five mountains they must cross. These mountains are hog-back ridges, and the trail led up a narrow crest that was but a stairway of rocks a few feet wide. Every man had to get out and walk up, because the horses could pull only the empty carriages. As they as- cended the storm became more furious, and the air was dark with flying snow. The cold became intense. Cross- ing the ridge mud took the place of rocks, and then the rubber boots became invaluable. The red mud was nearly knee-deep and of the most clinging nature. In one place the hearse tipped partly over, but was saved by a large rock at the side of the gorge. After this a rope was fast- ened to the axle of the hearse, and a couple of the Con- gressmen were detailed to act as anchors or holdbacks while going down the mountain sides. Then one of the colored drivers succumbed to over doses of mountain dew and cold, and Senator Warren took his team to drive. Four hours of driving found the party at the first stopping place, ten miles out. There the chilled ones were thawed out before a blazing fire of logs in the great fireplace. Coffee was made by the [18] ^72 Mack Genealogy. warm-laearted wife of the mountaineer, and then it was discovered that the luncheon brought by the party was solidly frozen, the eggs being like small cakes of ice. So they drank coffee and pushed on. Senator Warren, how- ever, was completely used up. He was not well when he left Washington, and was not properly clothed to with- stand the storm. Yet he had worked with all his strength until he could no longer stand. Much against his will, he was left at the house by Dr. Yoder's advice, but without medicine. The owner of the house was about 70 years old and had lived there all his life, ten miles from a rail- road. He had never been on the cars. He had forty acres of tillable land. The house was older than the man. Crutches on all sides held it up. It fairly staggered in the breeze. A cat with horns could have walked in under the doors and be thrown out by the tail through the holes in the roof without knocking off a shake. The old man and his wife, their son, and his wife, and their five boys and two girls, eleven in all, dwelt in the house. There were three beds, and the question how and where Senator Warren slept that night has never been explained. Among the live stock interests of the state of Wyom- ing a prominent place must be accorded the Warren Live Stock Company. This corporation have for many years grown and dealt in live stock on a large scale, and have done much for the industry; They own and control large bodies of land both in southern Wyoming and northern Colorado, and at the present time they are paying par- ticular attention to sheep. They run something over 100,000 head of sheep of the best grades, and about 3,000 head of horses. Senator F. E. Warren is the president of the company; Mr. C. M. Smith, vice-president, and Mr. W. W. Grleason, secretary and treasurer. They make Cheyenne their headquarters and employ a large force of men to look after their interests. There were two children. Mack Genealogy. 273 1123.

They have no children except an adopted son, a nephew of Mrs. Smith. In the Cheyenne Daily Leader of June 3d is the follow- ing: "The people of Cheyenne were startled yesterday by the report of the death of Mrs. Chas. M. Smith. Comparatively few people were aware of her illness and none appreciated its dangerous character. During her residence in this city Mrs. Smith had made for herself a host of friends. Charming in manner and person, well read, and sprightly in disposition, a superb hostess and entertainer, she won her way into the affections of all her acquaintances. Her disposition was at all times affable and unaffected. There was a charm in her manner and a warmth in her greeting which gave outward evidence of her kindly disposition and personification to the poet's lines : 'None knew her but to love her. None named her but to praise. ' ' ' A fitting tribute was paid to her by the literary circle of which she was the respected president. "At a called meeting of the Beta Social Literary circle of this city the following resolutions were adopted : "Whereas, It has pleased our all-wise and loving Father to remove ^Irs. Laura P. Smith, beloved president of the Beta Social Literary Circle, to the circle of the re- deemed and crowned in heaven, "Resolved, That we express our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved husband and relatives in this unexpected and deep affliction, and testify to the virtues, graces and accomplishments of our president. Words are weak to convey our sense of personal loss. Mrs. Smith was, by her simple, charming and affable manners, one of the most lovable of persons, unaffected and sincere in her friendship. ^ 276 Mack Genealogy. "Resolved, That these resolutions be transmitted to the husband of the deceased as a token of our love for her, and that the newspapers of the city be each supplied with a copy. "The funeral was held at the Baptist Church on her 30th birthday. The immediate cause of her death was probably peritonitis. Although she had not been in ro- bust health for several years she was not an invalid by any means, and her death was as peaceful as the sinking of a tired child to rest.

Mr. Smith obtained his education in the public schools of Middlefield and Becket, Mass., going from the latter place in 1859, to Boston, Mass., where he was clerk in clothing store of L. D. Boise until he enlisted in Co. I, 47th Mass. Volunteer Infantry. He spent some time in the camps at Boxford and Eeadville, Mass., and then was sent to the Union Race Course, Long Island. Dec. 31, 1862, the regiment arrived in New Orleans, La., and was on garrison duty within twenty miles of that city until his return home, Aug. 19, 1863. In Sept. of that year he was mustered out, and for several months he was clerk in one of the stores in Middlefield, Mass. In the following year he re-enlisted and was Orderly Sergeant of an unattached company of the 16th Mass.

The captain of tlie company having re- signed and both lieutenants being at the front, he had charge of the company until it was honorably discharged after the election of President Ijincoln, Ms second term. The company presented him with a handsome gold mounted revolver. He again resumed mercantile life in Middlefield, but only for a short time, as in 1866 he went to Fair Haven, Vermont, and associated himself in business with his father for seven years. He then became a member of the firm of Lee and Smith, carrying on a successful business several years. In April, 1881, he removed to Dalton, Mass., buying out the long established store of S. P. Root and conducted a large and constantly increasing business until 1888, when he admitted W. S. Wright into an equal partnership, forming the present firm of Smith and Wright. By his honorable methods of conducting business he has won the confidence and good will of the community, and is a man of public spirit, taking a deep interest in the welfare of the town. In 1886 and 1887 he was Chairman of the Board of Selectmen, and since then has held a similar position on the Board of Assessors. He is a member of the local Grange (of which he has been Master), also of Hancock Post, No. 187, G. A. R., of Dalton, and of the Sons of Tem- perance. In politics a Prohibitionist.

The fol- lowing from their local paper ; "G-range Hall at Bartonville was the scene Friday evening of an unusually happy gathering, the event be- ing in honor of Mr. and Mrs. John H. Smith, in observ- ance of their 25th wedding anniversary. For several days members of the Grange have been busy preparing for the occasion and the utmost care had been taken to have it a complete surprise. Early in the evening the 278 Mack Genealogy. hall commenced to fill with friends and judging from the large crowd it would seem that nearly every Daltonian was a G-ranger. Many were taken to and from the hall by D. J. Pratt's teams.' The company present included Dal- ton's most prominent citizens, and the congratulations re- ceived by Mr. and Mrs. Smith were very hearty. The occasion was pleasantly informal and was one of the most successful of the kind ever given here. During the even- ing Grand Master J. W. Fuller presented to Mr. and Mrs. Smith in behalf of the Grange an elegant parlor suite and several valuable pieces of silver as tokens of their regard. It was just a quarter of a century ago Friday evening that John H. Smith and Mrs. Sarah E. Parks were united in marriage by Eev. Mr. Walker, a Methodist pastor at Fair Haven, Vt., at the home of the bride's sister. Both were residents of that town. Seventeen years ago Mr. Smith bought out the store of his uncle, S. F. Boot, at Craneville, and they moved to this town, and his present partner, William Wright, commenced clerking for him, and ten years ago the well-known firm of Smith & Wright was formed and is today one of the most successful firms in town. One child has brightened their home, Sophia E., wife of Newton C. Smith of Waterbury, Conn. Both Mr. and Mrs. Smith are prominent church workers. Dur- ing the first few years of their living here they united with the Congregational Church, but a few years ago were among the first to commence the forming of a Baptist So- ciety, and ever since have been among its leading mem- bers, and at present Mr. Smith is clerk of the society. Both are members of the Dalton Grange, and the high respect in which they are held by this society was clearly demonstrated Friday evening. Mr. Smith is also a prom- inent member of Hancock Post, G-. A. R., and during the late war served fifteen months. He went out first in '62 and again in '64. Mrs. Smith is a member of the Relief Corps. They are also members of the Y. M. C.

Mr. and Mrs. Smith have the best wishes of every one for a long life of health and happiness. The Dalton Grange, which is one of our most enterprising societies, is to be con- gratulated upon the success of the evening, which will ever stand out in the memory of Mr. and Mrs. John H.

The particulars as we learn them are these : The young man went only a week ago to Chelsea to spend a portion of his vacation with friends there, apparently being in perfect health 282 Mack Genealogy. when he bade his parents good-bye. A telegram an- nouncing the serious illness of their son with diphtheria summoned Mrs. Clark to Chelsea yesterday morning, and in the afternoon another telegram reached Mr. Clark from her, to which he at once responded by taking the first train for Chelsea, and just as the train was starting a third telegram announced that death had occurred, but the mes- senger was unable to gain entrance into the car with the last dispatch, so the father went with the hope that he might at least find his boy alive, and suffered the added pain of finding even that hope vain. Young Clark was about 17 years of age, the only child of his parents, and a very bright and promising boy, a leading pupil of the High School, ranking 98 in scholarship, and was to gradu- ate next year. The sudden bereavement comes to Mr. and Mrs. Clark with aggravated painfulness, since it leaves them childless, and is a sorrow so utterly unex- pected, desolating their home without a moment's warn- ing of its approach. 691.

He occupies two floors of a double store room, and his place is filled with a fine display of plain and fancy furniture, house furnishing goods and carpets, and his prices are always in accordance with the times. He buys in carload lots direct from the manufacturer and takes advantage of every discount, which enables him to sell furniture for less than competitors who do not enjoy equal advantages. Everything sold by Mr. Smith is warranted to prove just as represented. Mr. Smith has been in business there for twelve years, and his reputation for fair and honorable dealing with customers is more than local and brings him trade from a distance. By selling good furniture at low prices he has secured the lion's share of the trade in this section.

He prepared for college at Middlefield Select School, High Schools of Hinsdale and Pittsfield, Mass., and Ober- lin Academy. He entered Oberlin College in 1880, from which he graduated, receiving the degree of A. B. in June, 1884. In 1887 the same college conferred the degree of A. M. upon him. For the school year 1884-5 he studied law at the Law School of Boston University. He was then invited to classify and catalogue the library of Ober- lin College, and was employed sixteen months in that work. He then returned to his law studies, entering the Law School of Harvard University in the fall of '86, and while carrying on his studies there was elected Librarian of Oberlin College, February 3rd, 1887. He was also elected Professor of Bibliography of the same institution in 1890, and in 1893 was made a member of the Pruden- tial, or Executive, Committee of the college. In 1901 he was chosen by the Trustees to act as Chairman of the Central Committee, having in charge the raising of funds to secure a conditional gift of Mr. John D.

Mr. Burt's father being killed in a battle in the War of the Eebellion, he was obliged, when quite young, to take care of himself, working on farms for a time, then learned the carpenter's trade. At the age of twenty -three began a course of study at Oberlin, and graduated in 1882, and then took a theological course and graduated in 1885, then was pastor at Riverside (a suburb of Cincinnati), Ohio, one year. His health failing he resigned and decided to try the climate of the Sandwich Islands, where he went in May, 1886, and the following September began as princi- pal of the Hilo Boarding School. While there he added an industrial school, built a large shop, with water power, and iDlaced in it considerable machinery, so that the boys are learning considerable in the mechanic arts. As soon as married they started on the Selina, with sis other passengers, for Hilo, Hawaiian Islands, and in the Hawaiian Gazete, Feb. 22, 1887, was found the following : Mack Genealogy. 287 "wreck of the selina." "Friday, Feb. 11, twelve days from San Francisco, with a full cargo of merchandise, cows, mules, hogs and six passengers. On coming into the harbor, just at dark, she was cast upon the rocks, under the high bluff, one-half mile from Waimaker Sugar Mill, and became a total wreck. By a miracle, almost, the passengers and all on board were saved, but they had to be drawn through the surf and helped up the almost perpendicular bluff, over 100 feet high, to terra firma, and thence conveyed by foot men and on horseback over the worst possible of roads, mud almost waist deep, for at least half a mile, to a place where carriages could be taken. ' * The anchors were both cast out when it was found the Selina was drifting, but both chains parted and a sudden squall threw the brig upon the rocks a ship 's length from the strand, with the breakers dashing furiously over the ship at dark, 6 :30 p. m. The first idea of accident to the Selina that any one at Hilo had was when the whistle blew at Waimaker 's, but it was so dark that nothing could be seen, save the running to and fro of lights on the shore. Soon after a gun was fired as a signal of distress, fol- lowed by a second, which told the Hiloites that there cer- tainly was trouble and help was needed. For some days the surf had been very high, and as the Selina came along it was found that her passengers could not land at the wharf. The club boat went off to the Selina and Mr. Awai, the custom house officer, took passage in it. After the Selina anchored (it being about dark), the club boat left and pulled for the shore, which was reached (with the boat full of water) about 7 o'clock. The Hiloites had sent for boats to Warkea, and issued an order to Judge Lyman to call on all the vessels in the harbor for help. An attempt was also made to get the little steamer. Ivy Holmes, but she was out of repair. All Hilo was astir. Soon word arrived that Awai had jumped overboard and [19J 288 Mack Genealogy. swam for shore, but the task was more than he supposed, and after being beaten about by the waves, he was drag- ged ashore more dead than alive, and was brought into Hilo, to his home. For two hours all on board were being wet and thrown down by the waves that constantly dashed in fury over the vessel, throwing down all who attempted to stand. In time ropes were rigged from the shore to the ship, and the passengers and crew, one by one, were drawn through the breakers to the shore, where they were cared for by willing hands. By ten o 'clock the ship was entirely deserted. During the night the sea went down considerably and an attempt was made on Saturday to save the freight on board. The passengers' baggage was all recovered, but in a wretched condition, everything being soaked with water, and a great portion ruined. The live stock, such as had not been killed by falling masts, were taken through the breakers to boats lying some distance off (no boats dared come near the wreck), and thus conveyed to Hilo. Before all were off, the ship was found to be on fire, the slacking lime having caught the kerosene in the hold. The hatches were taken off and the flames burst forth with fury. The hatches were replaced to smother the fire, and the hogs were thrown overboard to make their own way through the breakers. By Sun- day morning a hose pipe had been found and a flume built to the edge of the bluff, and water poured into the ship and the fire subdued. Monday morning the brig was sold at auction for $110.00. Tuesday the Selina was again found to be on fire, but little could be saved from the wreck except in a very damaged condition. "Monday, Awai, the C. H. officer, was around, hunting up the shipwrecked passengers and demanding from each the $2.00 hospital tax, the fee required to enter the king- dom. "What are the Hilo police good fori They were sta- tioned, Fi'iday night, to watch the wreck and to prevent all stealing, but instead of doing their duty, they at least Mack Genealogy. 289 seemed to connive at the thieving. Portuguese and na- tives vied with each other as to who would steal the most. Passengers' baggage was taken as well as other things; cases of goods were opened and taken away ; natives were found wearing the apparel of the passengers ; hundreds of dollars' worth of property was taken, and yet not an arrest. ' ' LIST OF PASSENGERS. Rev. and Mrs. A. W. Burt, Hilo Boarding School. Mrs. George Paty and child, Hilo. Mrs. Harris, Mrs. Gillen, Miss Low, San Francisco. Mr. McChesney, Honolulu. Mrs. Burt, in writing to her friends, spoke of their try- ing to get ashore in boats, and then spoke of the rope fastened to the ship and a huge rock on the shore, and the passengers would take hold of this rope and slide their hands along while they were pulled along by a smaller rope around their bodies, drawn by those on shore. The sea being rough, the ship would sway, making some of the time the rope slack, so they were a part of the time in the water and part of the time out. As they were landed undej: a precipice 150 feet high, they had to be drawn up by ropes around their waists, some of the distance per- pendicular, and a part of the way they could help them- selves a little, but were terribly bruised and scratched on the rocks. Mrs. Burt lost one barrel (that was burned) of books and bedding, and what was saved was in a dam- aged condition, many of her valuables being so badly water-soaked as to be entirely worthless. After remaining there three years they returned and for a time resided at Pomona, California; now at Los Angeles, where he is engaged in electrical business of some kind.

Concerning Mr. Bennett's religious work, the Bridge- port Evening Post says : • Mack Genealogy. 293 ' ' ' The deceased was ever active in religious work. To his efforts is due the conversion of many sinners to the way of, righteousness and truth. The Klondike Mission, where many careless souls were brought to a realization of their duties to their Redeemer, owes its existence to G-eorge S. Bennett. It was he who instituted the place of prayer and who remained with it until his declining health permitted him no longer to take part in the services. He was a faithful worker in the vineyard of the Master and, though the struggle at times was hard and the path- way strewn with thorns, he never shirked a duty. "During the latter part of the year 1889 the deceased became impressed by a feeling of duty to do something to assist his fellow man to work out his salvation. For months he considered several plans and finally decided to organize a mission. He unfolded his idea to his father, William H. Bennett, to Mrs. Bennett, to John Oleson and to Mrs. John Ashcroft. His earnest desire interested them all and on the first day of December the Klondike Mission became a reality. "At the outset the mission enjoyed a boom and Mr. Bennett rejoiced. The appearance of many souls coming to worship and to pray gladdened his heart. However, many who came were present not from deep religious mo- tive but from curiosity and soon there was a falling off in the attendance. For months it was a hard struggle, but the deceased felt that the Lord was on his side and that success would eventually crown his efforts. He per- severed and success came slowly. "For periods extending more than three months, Mr. Bennett never missed an evening or a Sunday from the Mission. His spare time was wholly devoted to worship. Weather conditions had no effect on his ardor, and on many occasions when the rain fell in torrents or the cold winds blew biting blasts he faced the elements to pray and commune with his Saviour. On one evening he was the only worshipper at the meeting hall. The cold 294 Mack Genealogy. rain fell and tlie wind blew so that no one else ventured out. He felt that it was his duty to attend and did so. On several evenings he found but two or three of the faithful at the Mission. However, he conducted the ser- vice as fervently and as earnestly as though the meeting hall was crowded. "Mr. Bennett's work was rewarded. Many converts have since expressed their love for him because of the interest he took in their welfare. Eecently he received a letter from California. It was written by a man who, a few years ago, thought only of the pleasures of the world and had no regard for the hereafter. It was at the Klon- dike Mission his heart was reached. He is now a good Christian. Similar letters have been received from Can- ada and distant places in the United States. "Until the first of last March the deceased continued in the work which had become part of his life. Then his health became such that he was unable to longer take ac- tive part in the doings of the mission. It was ever in his mind, however, and not a day passed but a prayer went up to heaven for its success. The memory of the deceased will long be cherished by many who owe their conversion to his efforts and by all the God-fearing people who loved him for the good he did in humanity's behalf." 745.

The attention of the service is especially called to the gallant and heroic action of Fireman Charles Jones, of Engine No. 25, Train 5, July 23d. In approaching Jamesport the Engineer saw a child on the track, blew for brakes and reversed his engine. Fire- man Jones, who was on the front of the engine, oiling the Mack Genealogy. 303 cylinders, seeing that it would be impossible to stop the train before reaching the child, immediately took a. posi- tion on the cow-fender and succeeded in grasping it just in time to lift it harmless from the track, thereby saving its life. The child was a little girl about three years of age, the daughter of Mr. Sam'l Bartlett, living near Jamesport. Too much iDraise cannot be awarded Mr. Jones for his action, and appreciating the ability, courage and good judgment displayed on this and other occasions, his name has been placed by the Master of Machinery on the list for promotion at the first favorable opportunity.

Tower of Providence, took place at 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon in Providence. The wedding was at the home of Profes- sor Ealph Tower of Brown University, who lives at No. 63 Arlington street in that city. Only the immediate friends and relatives of the two families were in attend- ance. The house was beautifully decorated and in the room where the ceremony took j^lace the floral effects were notable. The bride was given away by her father, Rev. F. E. Tower, and Rev. Mr. Coultas of Providence performed the ceremony. The best man was Henry P. Driggs of New York, a classmate of Mr. Peck's at Yale University and the Harvard Law School. The maid of honor was Miss Esther Tower, a sister of the bride. The wedding march was played on a harp, and Miss Mary Peck, the youngest sister of the bridegroom, acted as flower girl. Master Laurence Tower, the young son of Professor Ralph Tower, was the ring bearer. The ushers were Messrs. Howard Sejinour Peck of Bristol, Yale '96, a brother of the groom, and Charles S. Thurston of Bos- ton, a classmate at both Yale and Harvard. Immediately after the ceremony a wedding reception was held and then the couple left for a wedding trip. Upon their re- turn they will live in Hartford. Mr. Peck is a graduate of Yale in the class of 1895, and of the Harvard Law School in 1898.

Mr. Noble is a descendant in the seventh generation of Thomas Noble, the emigrant ancestor of the largest fam- ily of Nobles in this country. Thomas was born in Eng- land in 1632 and died in Westfield, Mass., in 1704. The year in which he sailed for America is unknown. He went to Massachusetts Bay colony. In 1653 he removed to Springfield, being among the early settlers at that inland frontier village. With Elizur Holyoke and others he re- ceived permission to erect a saw mill on "Ensign Coop- er's farm over Agawam Eiver. " To provide for a large and growing family he removed about 1669 to Westfield for many generations the center of the Nobles in the United States. In 1683 Goodman Noble had the sensa- tion of paying a fine for traveling on Fast Day. In 1696 he was chosen county surveyor. In 1660 he married Han- nah Wariner of Springfield, by whom he had ten chil- dren from the sixth of whom, Mark, the subject of this sketch is descended. He attended the Hockanum school and when thir- teen entered the Hartford High School. To reach the school it was necessary to walk five miles and this distance he covered in all kinds of weather, summer and winter, dust, mud, and snow, scarcely missing a day in four years. With the return in the afternoon he walk- Mack Genealogy. 331 ed ten miles. To gain his high school education he walked about 7,300 miles. He was on his class football team for two years. On graduating in 1880, he took a position in the drug store of McNary & Co., on Main street, where the Adams Express office now is. A year later, he went to George N. Clark & Co., with whom he stayed for two years. From 1883 to 1887 he was with Talcott, Frisbie & Co., whole- sale druggists. From them he received his druggist's diploma, passing his examination at his first trial. He had during the last two years entire charge of their labor- atory work. From 1887 to 1890 he was head clerk for E. Griswold, North Main street. In March, 1890, Mr. Noble opened his store in Garvan 's block. It was successful from the start. He has built up his business by faithfulness, reliability, low prices and accommodation. His business is now 75 per cent, more than in his opening year and his prescriptions are double 1890 's record. He is one of the most extensive retail druggists in this state. He is also prominent in fraternal orders. Residence, East Hartford, Conn. There were five children. 1462. Harry Sherman, b. April 30, 1888, d. June 29, 1889. 1463. Russell Brewer, b.

"On Sept. 23, 1815, came the worst gale and of the widest exjjanse that is recorded in the history of this country. Sweeping from the West Indies to Canada — and from the Atlantic to the uttermost western point where there were settlers to report, this terrible hurricane left horrible devastation and ruin in its track 'er land and sea. The damage to buildings and shipping was beyond computation. Oh, the loss of human lives ! This, only He who sent and ruled the storm will ever know." It has been known as "The Great September 364 Mack Genealogy. Grale." A similar storm, tliotigli not as disastrous or extensive, swept over New England Sept. 12, 1900. The family Bible contains the following : "Champion Hutchinson was supposed to have been lost at sea, in a violent gale of wind, on or about the 23d of September, 1815, on his return from Turk's Island." Captain Samuel Kellogg of East Hartford, who knew when Captain Hutchinson sailed from the Island, said: "The brig was very heavily laden with salt and I fear must have been in the wake of the storm." After three years, giving up all hope of hearing from the ill-fated brig, Mrs. Hutchinson on Oct. 28, 1818, mar- ried her husband's cousin, John Bissell Hutchinson. (See No. 1624.) 1617.

"Golden Wedding in Gilead—Four Generations Present — The Gifts and the Dinner— A Ununimous Vote for Grant and Colfax." Wednesday evening, October 28, 1868, will long be re- membered in Gilead. A golden wedding is always an oc- Mack Genealogy. . :i57 casion of peculiar interest ; and if that wedding be cele- brated in tbe old mansion where the entire fifty years of married life have been spent, if all the children living— (and a goodly number, too)— are present, bringing with them more than a score of intelligent grandchildren ; if all the exercises are deeply interesting ; then the occasion is one of very great joy, as a large number can testify who were present at the golden wedding of Captain John Bis- sell Hutchinson and wife. Their fifty years of married life as already hinted have been spent in the home where they now reside. Their children, nine in number, were all spared to enter upon the active duties of life. Two of them, the eldest daughter and the youngest son, have passed over to the better land. The remaining seven are all very pleasantly situated; five of them and the families of the deceased daughter and son living so near each other that twenty minutes ' notice can assemble them all at the ancestral home. Four generation^ were present at this golden wedding— over a hundred of dear relatives and friends. There were thirty present answering to the name of Hutchinson, three of whom were brothers of the golden groom. The presence of twenty-two grandchildren and one great grandchild gave peculiar joy to the golden circle, making the oldest young again. The gift table was richly laden with appropriate tokens of affection. The long dining room, at one end of which was suspended the Stars and Stripes with the fitting words "Grant and Colfax," was for a part of the even- ing the center of attraction. Nor could it be otherwise to those who enjoy a bountiful table and generous feast. At the first table sat a goodly number of venerable men and women whose united ages amounted to fifteen hundred. Six of them were present at the wedding, fifty years be- fore During the evening a touching address of welcome and thanksgiving was delivered by Capt. Hutchinsom He was followed by his brother, Dr. Ira Hutchinson of Crom- well, who gave an interesting sketch of the weddmg fifty 358 Mack Genealogy. years ago, and then contrasted somewhat humorously the every day life of those times with the present. The Eev. E. C. Baldwin of Branford, Conn., then made a very hap- ]iy and appropriate speech which was followed by a few remarks from the Eev. A. W. Clark of Grilead. The read- ing of the golden bride 's favorite Psalm, the 23d, appro- priate music and prayer formed a part of the exercises. In the same house August 30th, a son-in-law and daugh- ter of the golden pair, Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Prentice, celebrated their silver wedding. I must not omit an in- cident of interest to the readers of the Courant. A vote was taken for President, resulting unanimously^ for Grant and Colfax. At a seasonable hour the lia])py company separated, carrying with them many delightful remembrances of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Hutchinson's golden wedding." Next follows the family record. 1624.

Nov. 7, 1823. A story of his fight with a bear has been handed in, said to be recorded in History of Gilsum, N. H., where he resided. Early in June, 1777, he had wounded a bear and sent for a Mr. Osgood to come and help him. After hunting for some time they were separated, when the bear disturbed by the dog suddenly sprang for Mr. Wilcox from be- hind a tree. His gun missed fire and the bear rising on its hind legs struck it with such force as to bend back the guard and make a heavy dent still to be seen in the stock. 420 Mack Genealogy. The man and bear then clinched— he being a powerful man, noted for his strength in wrestling, seized the bear's tongue and held on with all his might— the dog meanwhile doing his part, and his barking and the shouts of Mr. Wil- cox soon brought Mr. Osgood. Mr. 0. dreaded to fire, fearing he would kill Mr. W. but seeing it was "neck or nothing" took the chance and fired. The bear dropped its hold and next day was found dead. Mr. Osgood went for help to bring Mr. Wilcox home, as he was terribly wounded, and was never after a well man. He and his sis- ter Lydia came with their father and he left them to clear the farm, after building them a log house, intending to return in a year. During this time Eleazer broke his leg and his sister brought him to the house, though he was six feet in height. Mrs. Wilcox was a devoted Christian, leading a godly life, and her influence was felt by the fam- ily. There were seven children. 2315. Obadiah, b. Aug. 6, 1779, d. May 24, 1812, unm. + 2316.

He was first Deacon in Congregational Church in Middlefield, Nov. 18, 1783. The tract following was publishe^d in 1846 (and is not entirely correct as to ancestry), by American Tract Society. COL. DAVID MACK, THE FAITHFUL STEWARD. "It is required in stewards that a man be found faith- ful. ' ' Every man is a steward of God, the universal Pro- prietor. Men are not their own, but his ; and their bodies and souls, their time and influence, their wealth and chil- dren, all belong to him. These are talents committed to their care, with the command, "Occupy till I come." It is therefore Atheistic and rebellious to say, ' ' I and these possessions are mine: who is Lord over me I" And it is Mack Genealogy. 423 disloyal to feel and conduct, as if we and our possessions were to be disposed of according to our own good pleas- ure. But, on the other hand, it is angelic and Christian, both in word and deed, to feel and to say as did King David to the King of kings, ' ' All things come of thee, and of thine own have we given thee." This is right; and though it be not so with the creatures of God generally on the earth, there are some who, like Moses, are faithful in all their house; men who, like Abraham, command their households after them ; men who, like the primitive saints, say not that aught of the things which they possess are their own. To such a man would we direct the reader of these pages— a man known to many in our land, and worthy of being known to more, and imitated by all ; for his memo- rial is among the just, who shall be in everlasting remem- brance. He was a man remarkable in his ancestry and early training; in his own family; in his influence on society; in his acquisition and use of intelligence and wealth; in his general benevolence and interest in the spiritual welfare of others ; in his growth in grace, long life, peaceful death, and eternal glory. We speak of Colonel David Mack, of Middlefield, Mass- achusetts, who died March 24, 1845, being more than ninety-four years old. He was born December 10, 1750, in Hebron, Coimecticut. He was of Puritan descent : his ancestors were noble ones, for the blood of the Pilgrims ran in their veins, and the- love of the Pilgrims' God burned in their hearts. His great-grandfather, Josiah Mack, came from Scotland, and settled in Lyme, Connec- ticut; his grandfather, Deacon Josiah Mack, removed from Lyme to Hebron ; his father, Elisha Mack, followed his son David from Hebron to Middlefield, not long to enjoy his new home, being suddenly killed in the fifty-sixth year of his age. Colonel Mack's mother was Mary Ellis, daughter of John Ellis, of Sandwich, Massachusetts, who 424 Mack Genealogy. died in 1819, aged eigMy-six. His wife was Mary, daugh- ter of Jolin and Abigail Talcott, to whom he was mar- ried April 24, 1774. She was born in Hebron, and died in Middlefield, July 11, 1827, at the age of seventy years. These all had not only the names of the ancient worthies, but like them they lived and ' ' died in faith, ' ' satisfied with long life, and blessed with the heritage of the Lbrd— a numerous posterity. Colonel Mack and his wife had each fifteen brothers and sisters ; and Jabez Ellis, his maternal uncle, lived till he was one hundred years and forty days old, and was connected with his wife in marriage seventy- six years ! In those days, family government had not changed hands : children were subject to their parents. But not so all : there were some who, like the sons of Eli, made them- selves vile and were not restrained; and it was among such that Colonel Mack was situated in his youth. But his parents prevented him from running to the same excess of riot. They absolutely debarred him from at- tending the fairs, horse-races, dances, and other amuse- ments in which his neighbors freely indulged. And when David— feeling, as he did, that this separating him from all associates was unreasonable and unjust— ventured to remonstrate with his father, as they were together in the field, the reply of the good man was, "My son, I do this to save you from ruin; for mark me, those young men will assuredly come to a bad end. ' ' This prophetic speech was sadly and literally fulfilled: three of them expiated their crimes on the gallows, others were sent to the state prison, and all came to a lamentable and disgraceful end. Companions of fools, they were destroyed. Not so with him who was trained in the way he should go, and did not depart from it when he was old. He honored his father and mother, and his days were long in the land which the Lord gave him; and that too, not- withstanding imminent exposure to death. As he removed his family from Hebron to Middlefield, Mack Genealogy. 425 in crossing the river at Norwicli, the unexpectedly high water swept them rapidly down the current to the point of being carried over the dam ; when looking for death, and the spectators giving them up for lost, Providence, at the moment of despair, ordered a way for their escape safe to land. Afterwards, as he was hunting in the' deep snows in pursuit of a large deer, the animal suddenly turned on him, pressed its antlers against his breast, and set its fore feet on both his snow-shoes, holding him fast; and thus crippled, it was with difficulty that he got in hand his hunting-knife, and with his utmost remaining strength drew it across the deer's throat; when the animal struck him with the hind foot a terrible blow upon one of his temples, which completely stunned, and almost killed him. As near as he could judge, he lay senseless about an hour. On recovering, his first thought was, "I am dead!" but rising up, he found that the deer was dead, and lying pros- trate at his feet. Thus was he delivered out of his distresses, that he might serve his generation by the will of God, and that God might fulfil the promise of long life to one who hon- ored his parents, not only while they lived, but long after they had departed this life. ' ' He once desired me, ' ' says his minister, "to go with him to the graves of his father and mother, for which he had just obtained new monu- ments. As we stood there, I said to him, 'You seem by this act to renew their memory, as if they had died but yesterday. ' ' Yes, ' said he, ' I wish to do all I can, while I live, to honor the name of my father and mother. But for them, I should have been a poor wretched outcast upon the earth. ' And the old man of ninety years, in the full possession of his faculties, shook with emotion and wept like a child." Blessed are the parents who, more than half a century after their death, can draw such a tribute from an aged son. Their names are not widely known on the earth, nor need they be ; it is enough that they sit 426 , Mack Genealogy. down with Abraham, the father of the faithful, and Isaac and Jacob, in the kingdom of God. And not only did Colonel Mack honor his parents : "he rose up before the hoary head, and honored the face of the old man." While yet a youth, an aged man of choleric temper had, from some unknown cause, contracted to- wards him a strong dislike. Meeting him one day, Mr. Mack saluted him respectfully, but received only the un- kind reply, " Don 't speak to me. " "I shall speak to you, ' ' said he, "for I have always been accustomed to respect age, and I always intend to do it." This changed his churlishness towards him ever after into civility; thus exemplifying the truth, that ' ' A soft answer turneth away wrath. ' ' It may be remarked in passing, that this respect for his parents and the aged was a result of parental fidelity. They were ' obedient to their Heavenly Father, and reverenced the "Ancient of Days" in securing the obedience and reverence of their son ; and they who honor me, saith God, will I honor. The son, thus faithfully dealt with, was in his turn faithful in all his house. He too ruled well, having his children in subjection. "My father," says one of them, ' ' excelled in government. He never inflicted punishment without fully setting forth the criminality of the offence and its evil consequences, calmly and coolly, without excitement or passion ; but he did not desist till there was a perfect yielding, a full confession and promise of amendment; and would often add, 'It is because I love you that I punish.' " No doubt it was, for "he that spareth the rod hateth his son, but he who loveth him chasteneth him betimes." "We were," he continues, "kept in on the Sabbath, and taught the catechism, and had other religious instruc- tion, which he faithfully imparted. He never allowed his children to be absent in the evening without his permis- sion, and he required their return by nine o'clock. And not only did he command his children, but his household. Mack Genealogy. 427 He had for several years twenty or more in his family in the summer; and in the most hurrying time of business he insisted that all under his care should be present at family devotions, and attend public worship on the Sab- bath. If a hired man persisted in using profane lan- guage, he dismissed him. Such fidelity in the stewardship God crowned with his blessing. He gave him thirteen children, three sons and ten daughters, all of whom lived to be married, and twelve of them became members of the church of Christ. They are honored of God and their country, and their children in their turn are rising up and calling them blessed. His descendants, living and dead, were, at the time of his decease, about two hundred: there were eight or ten of the fifth generation, his grandchildren's grandchildren. These, as well as his other relatives, he regarded as a high trust concerning which God would require an ac- count of his stewardship. For their temporal and spirit- ual welfare he labored, prayed and counselled. As evi- dence of this, and of his general Christian character, a few extracts will here be given from letters written in the later period of his life ; for he brought forth fruit in old age. Writing to a child, December 10, 1824, he says, "By the grace of God, I have been carried through the various stages of manhood, and am this day seventy-four years old. I have set apart this day for prayer, and have been reading the forty-second Psalm. I have enjoyed in some measure the light of God's countenance. 0, it is good to draw nigh to God, for he has styled himself a prayer- hearing God; and never said to the seed of Jacob, seek my face in vain." "December 12, Lord's Day. I had a great desire to enjoy the light of God's countenance, for which I attempt- ed to pray; and I think my poor feeble attempts were not in vain. My enjoyment continued through the day and evening. Thanks to Almighty God, that he can i28 Mack Genealogy. subdue the hardest heart, and bring such sinful rebels as I am to bow before him. When I look back on my life, and see how I have lived more than forty years since I experienced religion, if indeed I ever did, I have reason to blush and be ashamed, and repent in dust and ashes. I feel that I have more reason to be thankful to God than any of the sinful race. If he should see fit to continue me in life, my prayer to him is, that he would make me more faithful in his service, and that the remainder of my days may be filled up with duty and usefulness to God and man. ' ' In 1832, he writes, ' ' Alas ! my dear children, with shame and confusion of face I am often confessing be- fore the throne of grace, that when I would do good evil is present with me; that while I delight in the law after the inner man, I am so drawn aside by my indwelling corruptions, the snares of the world, and Satan's tempta- tions, that were it not for a strong belief that I have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous, who is the propitiation for our sins and the sins of the whole world, I could have no confidence towards God, being con- demned by my own heart. In short, I can do no other than allow that all my best services are defiled with sin, and need to be washed in that fountain which the Lord has opened for sin and uncleanness. ' ' In 1835, he wrote to a brother: "For many years I have thought much on the importance of being prepared for death ; but it appears to me that during the last year I have grown more in the knowledge of Christ than in any previous year of my life. I can say in my most fav- ored moments, I knoiv him, I love him, I am his, and he is mine. No nanae awakens such tender and interesting feelings in my mind as his ; nor is there any being in the universe whom I so much delight to honor, or desire to see. And why should it not be so 1 We are under greater obligations to him than to all the world besides. We have more to do with him every day of our lives than with Mack Genealogy. 429 any other being in the universe. No being in heaven is so much beloved as he is; none has manifested such love towards us as he has. No wonder that our heart and flesh should cry out for him. "My dear brother, if you and I are what we profess to be, we shall in a short time be with him, where he is, to behold his glory which he had with the Father before the world was. Although my health is good, my reason tells me the time I have to stay here is short. I often look over my life, to see if I have done anything on which I could place the least dependence, viewing it as righteous in the sight of a holy Grod; but comparing my life with his holy word, I am constrained to say, that in all things I have come short of my duty. I have nowhere to go but to God through Christ, and plead for mercy in his name." Again he writes, December 10, 1835: "My dear chil- dren, I am this day eighty-five years old. I have spent most of the day in calling to mind the numerous blessings of which God, in his holy providence, has made me the unworthy partaker, and in reading and meditating upon the 25th and 29th chapters of Genesis, the 34th chapter of Exodus, 32d of Deuteronomy, and the two last chap- ters of Joshua. I enjoy good health, and have attended meeting every Sabbath this season. When I call to mind what God has done for me, and what miserable improve- ment I have made of his numerous mercies, I have great reason to be humbled before him. ' ' "December 31. In the good providence of God, I am brought to the close of another year. There is no closing year in eternity. The solemn influence of this season is among the means of grace connected with a probationary state. Before the close of another year the writer, or the reader of these lines, may be where all such influences will cease, and leave them to the unchanging retributions of eternity. The Spirit of God will strive mightily with many at this solemn season. As we look back on time from another world, we shall find that every such oppor- 430 Mack Genealogy. tunity of religious impression was designed to bring us to repentance. The history of another year of probation for eternity is about to be sealed up for the judgment. The glass that marks off another precious portion of our state of trial is about to be turned. It may be, that many will remember this closing season in eternity, as the period when the Spirit of God was resisted for the last time, and took his everlasting flight. ' ' My dear children, it becomes you and me faithfully to examine the foundation of our hope, and see to it, that we are not deceived; that when Grod shall call us hence we may be prepared for the summons ; our work done, and well done, for which ' the time is short. ' ' ' ' ' January 1, 1836. I have been loudly admonished the year past by the deaths of many aged friends. They have fallen on my right hand and on my left. I am the oldest man in town— there is not one living who was here when I came. In one sense I am almost alone ; in another, I am not alone. I enjoy the presence and smiles of my Saviour in my room, which is the best of company. I have great enjoyment on the Sabbath in going to the house of God, in hearing the Gospel, and in visiting my Christian friends on week days. If I am not deceived, my evidences for heaven are brighter, and my faith stronger, as I advance in life. Yet many times I see myself to be so great a sinner, it seems impossible I should be of that happy number whose sins are forgiven. And yet I do not despair of mercy on account of the greatness of my sins, for I firmly believe that the atonement which Christ has made is sufficient to atone for my sins and for the sins of the whole world He ' came not to call the righteous, but sin- ners to repentance, ' such as feel themselves to be sinners, old sinners." In 1836, he thus addressed his grandchildren: "My dear and much esteemed grandchildren : God, in his holy providence, has lengthened out my unprofitable life much longer than I expected. He has bestowed upon me many Mack Genealogy. 431 blessings. My health, is as good as it ever was. I can read with spectacles, and some without. My hearing is perfect. Although my health is good, my reason tells me I have but a short time to stay in this world of trouble and sin. May I so live, that when God calls me home to be here no more, I may be found watching, and enabled, through grace in Christ Jesus, to give up joyfully my spirit to him who gave it. "It is uncertain whether you will ever hear from your aged grandfather again in this way; will you therefore, my dear grandchildren, allow me to give you a few words of advice? I have great concern for your temporal and spiritual good; and knowing, as I do from experience, how liable young people are to go astray from the corn- man dp of Grod into forbidden paths, I would warn you of your danger. May you not be tempted to sin ; or if tempt- ed, may you be supported and delivered, and be kept from the vanities and sensualities of this evil world. 'Hear counsel and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in thy latter end.' Be careful what company you asso- ciate with, for such will be your character. 'He that walketh with wise men shall be wise, but the companion of fools shall be destroyed. ' ' The beginning of strife is as when one letteth out water, therefore leave off conten- tion before it be meddled with.' 'He that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster ; ' there- fore be industrious in some honest calling. ' ' Never marry for riches or beauty, for ' beauty is vain, ' and 'riches take to themselves wings and fly away.' Ex- ercise judgment. Be well acquainted with the temper and disposition of your intended bosom friend before you de- cide. Lay hand suddenly on no one. When you com- mence housekeeping, be careful to erect the family altar. If you are blessed with children, and desire that they may be a blessing to you, do your duty faithfully to them ; pray with and for them ; train them up for God. "Let me enjoin it upon you, as an incumbent duty, often [28] 432 Mack Genealogy. to read your Bible, with prayer to God for a right under- standing of what you read. It is of infinite importance that we understand the truths contained in that holy book, for by them we must be judged at the last day, and by a Judge that cannot be deceived. ' Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy. ' Be always ready to do your part in supporting the Grospel. The man who is not willing to support the gospel cannot with propriety be called a good member of society. 'Despise not the poor because he is poor.' The great object of our existence is to glorify God, in whom we live and have our being, and who be- stows all our comforts. Take heed that you faithfully perform all the duties and business of life from a regard to his commands and with reference to his glory. We are placed in this world to labor for him (not to become rich and great), and to do all the good we can. Let it be your aim to have the glory of God as your ultimate end in all you do, that you may answer the end of your creation. I should be glad once more to see you all, but I do not expect to. I desire to commit you to, and leave you with, the Father of all mercies and God of all grace. ' ' That you may be directed safely through an evil world to God's heavenly kingdom, is the sincere prayer of your aged grandfather, David Mack." By such counsels as these, and a corresponding ex- ample, and fervent prayers, he was a faithful steward in the care of the children which God gave him, and also of his children 's children ; and this labor was not in vain in the Lord, for most of his grandchildren are hopefully pious. How great his reward on earth, and in heaven! ' ' Well done, good and faithful. ' ' Not alone was Colonel Mack a patriarch in the family relation; he was a prince among the people. His active piety was allied to that knowledge which is power ; and in the improvement of his mind we see the fidelity of the steward. His early advantages were very limited, for pre- Mack Genealogy. 433 vious to Ms marriage he had been to school but' sis weeks. Pie once expostulated with his father, because he did not give him' more opportunity to attend school. His father replied, "David, I never went to school but three weeks in my life: you have been six, and ought to be satisfied!" But this did not satisfy him. He afterwards went to the common school of those days with his own children. His eldest son, the Honorable David Mack, of Amherst, Massachusetts, was six years old when he went to school with his father and spelled in the same class. And he often exulted, in true childish emulation, when he was able to get above his father in spelling. Thus improving his mind. Colonel Mack made his one talent ten ; he increased in understanding, for he laid fast hold of instruction. He became wise and walked with wise men. He kept along with the progress of the times. He was a friend and patron of learning, and gave large sums in aid of public seminaries. He assisted indigent young men in their studies, and offered his three sons a liberal education. Two of them were obliged to relinquish their studies in consequeir-'e of the failure of their health ; the third. Honorable Eljrlia Mack, of Salem, graduated at Williams College. In all this, faithful over a little, God made him ruler over much. With the improvement of his intellectual powers there came another talent, Influence ivith others. This reward of well-doing he employed as a fresh trust faithfully to be used. A clergyman who knew him well, remarked, "Colonel Mack is one of the most perfect examples of nature's noblemen: having surmounted all obstacles to his advancement in life, he combines the most far-seeing sagacity with the greatest amount of practical wisdom, and all guided and controlled by elevated and incorrupt- ible principle. ' ' His life is identified with the entire history of the town in which he lived ; in his prime he was prominent in all its public affairs, constantly filling some office of trust and 434 Mack Genealogy. honor, as selectman, assessor, justice of the peace, repre- sentative to the Legislature, colonel of the militia, and deacon of the church. To this last office he was early appointed, and served in it acceptahly until he resigned at seventy-five years of age. With his military honors there is connected an incident which illustrates his patriotism, decision, and magnan- imity. At the time of "Shay's insurrection," he was captain of a company of militia, and a requisition was sent to him to appear in Springfield with a certain num- ber of men, and join the governmental force. He accord- ingly drafted his men, and gave orders for their appear- ance next morning prepared to march. But in the mean- time the company met, appointed new officers, and declared in favor of the insurgents ; they surrounded and entered his house, declaring him to be " a prisoner of war. ' ' Cap- tain Mack conducted himself with his usual self-posses- sion. After exerting himself to the utmost to persuade them to desist from their course of folly and treason, he asked for a furlough of three days, which they granted. At their request he wrote it, and having secured the sig- natures of the newly appointed officers, he put the docu- ment in his pocket and hastened to Springfield, repaired to , headquarters, presented himself to General Shepard, and exhibited his furlough. After examining it, the gen- eral said, "Captain Mack, as you have no men to fight with you, you may go home : we shall attend to the men who have signed this paper. ' ' And this the general did, by lodging them in Northampton jail, where in their dis- tress they earnestly and humbly besought Captain Mack to use his influence in procuring their release. With a magnanimity which delights in blessing enemies, he exert- ed himself in their behalf, and secured their pardon. It was principally by his agency that Middlefield was incorporated into a town, the advantages of which were from the first foreseen by him. Having obtained a knowl- edge of the region while hunting, and defined the bound- Mack Genealogy. 435 aries for a new town, lie called a meeting of tlie citizens to consider the matter. They approved the object, but dreaded the expense and the opposition of the interested towns. He told them he would undertake the business : if successful, they should defray the expenses ; if he failed the loss should be his own. They consented, and he succeeded. The act of incorporation was granted March 12, 1783. It was also mainly through his agency that the meeting-house was erected, in 1791. Previous to this, religious meetings were held in his barn and large cham- bers of his house, and town meetings in his kitchen. He occupied the pew in which he was first seated fifty-four years, during which period more than thirty, who were at diiferent times his seat-mates, deceased. He attended constantly on divine worship. He was not afraid of the snow and vapor, the stormy wind, rain, or distance; and obstacles which would keep at home two- thirds of a congregation of common Christians in the prime of life, were no impediment to him at fourscore years and ten, a period when even ' ' the grasshopper is a burden. ' ' But ' ' love knows no burden, ' ' and hence it was easy for him to go to the house of the Lord, for he "loved the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob. ' ' The Lord, his treasure, was there— his heart was with his treasure, and his body went with his heart. He was glad to go; he was joyful in God's house; he sat there with great delight, and the preaching seemed better and bet- ter. This is the secret of being always able to go to church; while it is no secret at all that those who are easily discouraged because of the way are the ones who have no heart for it. Colonel. Mack had a heart for it ; and for years, until there was a religious society in Middlefield, he attended divine worship at Chester, whither he went on foot six miles during a great portion of the year. And in the win- ter 's cold on those mountains, where God "giveth snow like wool and scattereth the hoar-frost like ashes," he 436 Mack Genealogy. frequently went with an ox-sled carrying his own and his neighbors' families. This occupied him from sunrise to sunset, and frequently longer. In all this, he was a faith- ful steward, and the "Lord of the Sabbath" gave him almost five thousand Sabbath days, to prepare for the "rest which remaineth"— each one of them more precious to him than a thousand days in the palaces of sin. Thus he honored dod, and God honored him with influence with others, so that "men gave ear unto him, and waited, and kept silence at his counsel. ' ' Another talent which God commits to men as his stew- ards is wealth. This he gave to Colonel Mack; not in money by inheritance to the amount of a penny, but sim- ply the "power to get wealth," in a strong constitution, good health, a keen discernment, sound judgment, and un- tiring industry. Besides the land on which he settled, then a wilderness, he used facetiously to say that when he removed to Middlefield his property consisted of a poor horse, an axe, and his wife and child. He purchased his land at Becket, in 1773, for a horse valued at forty dollars, when returning from his first trading adventure, which was among the Indians on the borders of Lake Champlain. He cleared two acres which he sowed to grain, and built a log-house in the summer of 1774, which was preparatory to his removal the following year; and he said the first crop he gathered was the largest he ever saw; and that a kind Providence continued to give the most bountiful returns to the labor of his hands. He frequently walked six miles through the woods to another settlement, to do a day's work for a little money or meat ; and once, when he lost his way in the woods, he climbed a tree to avoid the bears and wolves, and there spent the night. While clearing his land, he returned to Hebron to work a month in the hay season, for ten dol- lars, an extra price for those days. It was six years after he began to clear his farm before he owned a yoke of oxen, and these he bought with the Mack Genealogy. 437 sldns of deer which he caught in the hard winter and deep snows of 1780— a winter "of which our fathers have told us. ' ' And then needing some iron-work to make his new team available, as he could not pay down and would not ask a stranger to trust him, he went to a blacksmith with whom he was acquainted, living sixty miles from his home, and settled the bill the next spring with maple sugar ; and all this too, when (in the time occupied for the journey) sixty miles were as long as, in many cases, six hundred miles are now ! Thus it was not much that he had to begin with; and he made it, like the faithful steward, to gain five and ten ; and then again it was increased to hundreds and thousands in return for his fidelity in a little. "His root was spread out by the waters, and the dew lay all night on his branch." He was industrious, economical and faithful; so prompt in the payment of his debts that no one, in any instance, during his long business life, called for money due from him without his paying it : a peculiar excellence and worthy of all imitation. He found that honesty was the best policy at all times and places, and that the only thing needful for an enter- prise which could not prosper by integrity was its discon- tinuance. He was a merchant as well as a farmer; and he established many young men in the mercantile busi- ness in the adjacent towns. He also established in busi- ness the first blacksmith, the first boot and shoemaker, and the first saddle and harnessmaker, who followed their respective trades in Middlefield. It was his rule to take an account of stock yearly, and to keep an accurate ac- count of each branch of his business; and when any proved unproductive, it was relinquished. In this way, from small beginnings, he rose to affluence; his basket and store was replenished, and his barns filled with plenty. And what did he do with it all 1 Did he spend it for dis- play, and the indulgence of vanity and pride? No. Did 4:38 Mack Genealogy. he lay it up for Ms children? No. "When they left the paternal roof he gave them a respectable outfit; but not enough to make them indolent, or lax in their efforts. If they wanted more, like him they must labor for it. The rest of his property, except what he needed to support him in old age, was employed in objects of benevolence. This is tile more remarkable, as in his day it was the custom less than now to promote benevolent enterprises. In this he was, as a good steward must always be, in ad- vance of the times in which he lived. In large sums he bestowed more than eighteen thousand dollars; and his smaller offerings, here a little and there a little, to pro- mote human welfare, are supposed to have been not less than eighteen thousand dollars more. He was one of the founders of the Hampshire Missionary Society; and he made himself, by his contributions, a life member of twelve benevolent societies ; and, at a period when it was regarded as doubtful whether all the missionary societies in the country could support one missionary in a foreign land, he removed that doubt by a donation of one thou- sand dollars, which at that time was an almost unparal- leled act of liberality. In his charities he sought not the praise of men; he imparted of his wealth from love of Christ and the souls for whom Christ died: he remembered how the Lord Jesus had said, "It is more blessed to give than to re- ceive. ' ' He did it because he wished to be a faithful stew- ard, both in doing good to those who are far off, and to those who are nigh. He aided very many young persons in attending school, and others in acquiring a liberal education. He was fond of distributing Tracts when travelling, and within a few years circulated inany volumes of the Evangelical Family Library. In the year 1814, he presented each of his chil- dren with a set of Scott's Family Bible, which cost him three hundred and sixty dollars. He left for the church and society of which he had so long been a member, a Mack Genealogy. 439 fund of three thousand dollars for the support of the Gos- pel in all coming time. He made two wills at an interval of twenty-eight years, in which of course he appointed another as the executor, but he lived to be his own executor, paying his bequests, and settling his accounts to the uttermost farthing; so that, in fulfilling his last testament, nothing remained to be looked after when he was gone, but his wearing ap- parel, the large Bible, Scott's Family Bible, a Psalm Book, the case in which he had kept them, and the spec- tacles with which he had read them. Not a pound— no, not a penny, has been found hid in the earth or laid up in a napkin. Such is a brief view of his stewardship in the use of his Lord's money. He obeyed the command, "Occupy till I come." He was not weary in well-doing; but was steadfast, abounding unto the end. The writer of this recollects hearing him say, not long before his death, to a merchant who thought of buying his wool, "You must give me for it what it is worth, for, if you do not, you will defraud the Lord ; it is his, and what I receive for it is to be placed in his treasury. ' ' It is refreshing to find a man in this lost and selfish world with a just and generous heart. It is delightful to find among the stewards of God, as all men are, one who feels the force of that relation, bows to its claims; fulfils its duties, and receives the crown of the faithful. We re- joice that so many of the dead leave behind them a blessed memorial; that light gilds their track, and that we may speak of them as being in heaven, with the feeling that they are in their appropriate sphere. "Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things : enter thou into the joy of thy Lord." What a gracious and glorious reward! Colonel Mack was not too faithful. He did not do too much for the Saviour who died for Jiim. He felt that he 440 Mack Genealogy. had done too little, that he merited nothing, that he was saved by grace. His hope was in Christ, and in him alone. This is evident from his letters already noticed, and the same feeling attended him till he finished his course. His eldest son, speaking of a visit made him a year or two before his departure, says, "As I was about to take leave of him, he took me by the hand and said, ' My son, I may never see you again in this world. I wish you to pray much for me, but do not pray that I may live any .longer. I have lived long enough in this wicked world.' I asked him if he felt prepared to die ? ' I think I do ; I have no righteousness of my own ; it would be just in God to cast me off forever. If I ever get to heaven, it will be though the atonement that Christ has made. ' "At that interview he said, 'The Scriptures never appeared so precious as they now do. Every sermon our minister preaches is better and better. The society of Christian friends was never so precious. It seems a great part of the time that the Saviour is with me in my room, and communion with him is delightful. I have great enjoyment in my bed; when I awake in the night my Saviour is precious to me. I have not for a long time allowed myself to close my eyes in sleep, until my mind was in such a frame as I was willing to awake with in eternity.' He continued in the same state of mind most of the time until he died. His end was peace. He left the world, relying solely on the merits of Christ for ac- ceptance with God." Such is a brief and imperfect sketch of a steward "found faithful ;" a man remarkable for a pious and, ven- erable ancestry; early trained in the way he should go; himself ruling well, and religiously instructing his chil- dren, and others under his care ; improving his mind, with almost no instruction, till he became wiser than his teach- ers ; from nothing to begin with, accumulating an estate, and at the same time quietly dispensing it like the light and the dew— thousands on thousands in the broad deep Mack Genealogy. 441 river, and in the small rain on the tender herb ; owing no man anything but love (unless others preferred that he should be in their debt), for he never once said, "Go, and come again, and tomorrow I will give," when he had it by him. His policy was honesty: and his integrity firmer than the granite of the mountains on which he lived: that has been ^lasted and moved— his integrity never. He was a man of stability, always in his place every day, as he was on the Sabbath day, for fifty-four years, regularly in the same pew in the house of God ! And after all was done, his hope was in Christ alone. He felt himself to be nothing but a sinner saved by grace ; and like Paul preeminent among sinners so saved, as be- ing chief. His days were prolonged, not only while a thousand fell at his side, and ten thousand at his right hand, but while twenty-five hundred millions of our race died! He lived till satisfied with long life. When his pastor asked him near its close, if his life seemed short, he did not say, like Jacob, "Few and evil have the days of the years of my life been," but he said, "When I look at my life, taken as a whole it seems short, like a handbreath before me; but when I look at the gradual and astonish- ing changes which have taken place, and when I trace them from the commencement to the great result, and when I look at my posterity, my children's children, I almost feel that I have lived forever ! ' ' Though his hearing was yet perfect, and his eye scarce- ly dim, and his natural force not much abated, he did not wish to live longer:— his days were full, his work was done, he chose to depart ; ' ' and he was not, for God took him. " " Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his." That it may be so, my friends, with you, live as he lived. Make the most of your various trusts. Save your- selves and your children from the way to ruin. Cultivate your minds. Let yourinili.encq be all on the side of virtue 442 Mack (iENEAlogy. and religion. Devote your liearts and possessions to the service of God, and learn that the way to be stewards of more, is to "honor the Lord with your substance and the first fruits of all your increase." "Bring ye all the tithes into the store-house, and ]Drove me herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing that therQ shall not be room enough to receive it. And ye shall be mine, saith the Lord of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels!" This tract was written by Eev. Eeuben Tinker of West- field, N.

(Written by Aella Grreene for The Sunday Republican.) Back in the early days of Middlefield David Mack, a sturdy pioneer from Connecticut, journeyed on horseback up to the heights of that hill town of old Hampshire coun- ty, then almost an unbroken wilderness, and there took up land, cleared some and planted it, and builded a log house. 'Going back to Connecticut, he soon after returned bring- ing with him a wife, who rode on a pillion behind her lord. They also brought with them on this wedding trip a fr^dng pan and a few other simple cooking utensils. In their rude cabin they began housekeeping, and therein the first of their large family of children were born. Later a frame house was made, probably of hewn timbers. "\Vhen by the incoming of other settlers the population was large enough to demand a store. Pioneer Mack set up in trade ; he also made potash and dealt in the article. According to the custom of the old times, all the "men folks" between certain specified ages and of sound phy- sical health were required to meet once or twice a year for "training.*' Of the Middlefield warriors the brave leader was Capt. David Mack, who, with his complement of "leftenants," "sargeants" and "corp'ls," made an impressive appearance at company drill, or regimental or general training. His military career included the eventful time of the "Shays rebellion." Called on by Gen. Shepard of Westfield to report with his company at Springfield to aid in resisting an attack that was threat- ened by Shays and his men. Capt. Mack ordered his men to be ready to march at a given time. But sympathizing with the rebels, not a man would move to help Gen. Shepard. " Then, " said Mack, " if you don 't go, I shall go myself, alone, ' ' and go he did, armed and equip- 444 Mack Genealogy. ped, but without a man. He had promised his men that, as soon as he had seen Gen. Shepard and could get excused, he would return home. The general commended him for his loyalty in reporting for duty, and furloughed him to return to Middlefield. On his way back he met his com- pany, who, newly officered, were "marching onward" in high spirits to join the insurgents. I am Daniel Shays, sir. In Pelham I did dwell, sir. Capt. Mack turned out and gave the company the road. Reaching home, he found matters there all right, and, hav- ing kept his promise to report back at Middlefield, now bethought him to return and report again to Gren. Shepard. On the way he met his men, and this time they turned out and gave him the road, and sorry-looking fellows they were, having joined the rebels just in season to be routed by Gen. Shepard. Didn 't Capt. Mack have a leverage on his neighbors then? Importuned by them, he appeared in behalf of the leaders, who were tried at Northampton, and at the asking of the loyal Mack some of them escaped with only slight sentences, all of them getting some miti- gation through his intervention. It is said that in his earlier years Capt. Mack had not developed proficiency in the rudimentary branches of edu- cation, to say nothing of lack in higher branches. So, nothing to do but he must at least become versed in the "three R's." With him the way to dp it was to do it," and it's a matter of record that Capt. Mack attended school with his own children, spelling in the same class with one of his sons, the boy spelling a word that the father had missed, and so going above him in the class. And the boy was so small as to be unable to wade through the snow drifts, so the father carried him home on his back. Not only a farmer, a potash maker, a storekeeper ajid a captain, Mack came to be deacon of the hilltop church of Mack Genealogy. 445 the "standing order." Dea. Mack had a horse whose Sunday duty was to draw the family buggy with the Macks to and from the meeting-house. Stories that seem strange to some are told of his horse's intelligence. Horse fanciers, however, declare them within the bounds of pos- sibility as to facts. And it would indeed seem as if the horse had a clock in his memory. 'Tis declared that of a Sunday morning, when hitched to the family buggy and driven to the door of the deacon's house, he had there waited with the pious patience becoming the day and be- coming a deacon's horse, and no deacon appearing, nor others of the Macks, he started off to the meeting-house and so on to his regular place in the meeting-house sheds, to wait there at his ease, and after meeting bring home the Macks, who had to trudge up to divine service that morning ! The horse came to have a good idea of the proper length of a sermon. Of course he adapted him- self to the custom of the times and quietly waited in his shed till the discourser reached the seventh subdivision of his sermon, or even the twelfthly. But once, when a minister preaching in exchange had exceeded even that point without reaching the "finally, ", the deacon's horse backed out of his shed— where, so faithful was he, he had been left unhitched— and, coming to the meeting-house steps, waited a moment or two for the Macks. They did not appear, and the deacon's Dobbin went home without them. (They came to M. with ox team. Their first child was born in Hebron, Conn.) (Compiler.) 2208. Abigail Mack (2167. 6. 1.) b.

The following is taken from Religious Herald, dated Nov. 11, 1858 : The writer of this has known Mr. Mack and as a pas- tor has been pleasantly, and intimately associated with him for thirty-one years and he knows no person of whom it could be more truthfully said, "JBehold an Israelite in- deed in whom is no guile. ' ' Mr. Mack was the son of emi- nently pious parents : his mother especially was one who sat at the feet of Jesus and heard his words. Their son, the subject of this sketch, was introduced into the kingdom of Christ in the prime of manhood by a long and painful experience. During several months he was under con- viction and was suffering from a most distressing sense of his sinfulness. Often in the course of those painful months he seemed to himself to be very near to sinking into the burning gulf. His assiduous and anxious mother was his principal counselor at this time; and while she felt all the tender solicitude of a parent for her child, yet she rejoiced that her son was in the hands of God; and she made no effort to heal his wound slightly, or to lead him to cry peace, peace, when God had not spoken peace. He at Jength emerged from the state of darkness which had been so gloomy, and found precious light and sweet and delightful tranquility of soul, in resting on the atone- ment of Christ. He united with the church at the age of twenty-four and from the day of his spiritual birth to the hour of his death, including more than forty years while he sojourned in the wilderness, he drank constantly of the living waters of that Eock which followed him and "that Rock was Christ." In his relation to the Congre- gational Church in Gilead, he was a light and a comfort. 466 Magk Genealogy. He sustained a prayer meeting on the Sabbath in the in- terval of public worship almost solely by his own efforts ; and this prayer meeting, which was his in an emphatic sense, was often a delightful and hallowed occasion to many souls. He often, in his own kind and pleasant way, sought opportunities of prayer with his pastor when with a warm heart and chastened smile he spake of Jesus and of heaven, and suggested topics of encouragement. Mr. Mack was always in his place in the house of Grod while his health permitted; and his constancy at the weekly meeting and his uniform readiness to assist in the meet- ing and render it profitable to others, present him as an example worthy of imitation. Even when reduced by dis- ease to a great weakness, he invited brethren to his own house for prayer, and found much enjoyment in commu- nion with the friends of Christ. No man was more ready to co-operate with his pastor, and none with a warmer, truer heart ever prayed for his pastor's success in his work than Mr. Mack. When he made suggestions to the pastor it was always in much meekness and with a mod- esty and gentleness peculiarly his own. His words, his manner, his look, all were kind ; he pos- sessed in truth a very kind heart. No person could be long in his society without hearing- some impressive words, seriously and yet very affection- ately spoken, respecting Christ and our need of Him, and eternal realities. In short, through the whole period of thirty-one years of the writer's intimacy with Mr. Mack, he has known him as a uniform, peaceful and peculiarly lovely man of God, carrying his religion with him into all the departments of life, and manifesting deep genuine religious principle in his whole intercourse with the world. It is thought that he could have employed sincerely the words of the sainted Father Hallock as he lay on the bed of death, viz: "If I have not loved Christ and Christ's things in the world, I do not know what I have loved." Mack Genealogy. 467 But he is gone; and his departure, as might have been expected, was as peaceful as his life had been devoted. When near his end, he deliberately and in full con- fidence said: "Lord Jesus, into thy hands I commend my spirit," aiid expressed himself as elevated and joy- ful in view of the fact that death was making its ap- proaches upon him and that he was just done with time. In view of the death of such a man, how appropriate is the prayer, ' * Help, Lord, for the Godly man ceaseth, for the faithful fail him, among the children of men.

April 26, 1839, Hinsdale, Mass. He was son of 470 Mack Genealogy. Noadiah and Elizabeth (Brainerd) Emmons. (See Ap- pendix). He was the oldest of eight children and went when young to Middlefield, Mass., to learn the blacksmith trade of his Uncle Ebenezer (also his brother-in-law), married, returned to East Haddam, Conn., where he re- mained two years, then removed to Hinsdale, Mass., bought a poor farm of his father Mack, promising to pay a large price for it (but really not expecting to pay much for it) thinking that eventually his father Mack would give it to him— but such were not the plans of Mr. Mack. He told Mr. Emmons he would take anything for pay, so sometimes a few pigs, also young cattle, would be driven to Middlefield and at one time he had some two hundred dollars of Pittsfield money which he paid him— and in a few days the bank failed, Mr. Mack still having the money in his possession, but he said nothing of his loss. Af- terwards Mr. Emmons had eighty dollars in money of a New Haven, Conn., bank which failed. Mr. Mack came to condole with him, but did not mention it until just before leaving, when he shook hands with him, and said, "I am sorry for you," at the same time leaving a roll of bills in his hand, which Mr. Emmons did not look at until Mr. Mack had gone ; and then he found the worthless Pittsfield money he had paid his father-in-law. Mr. Emmons was always called Major, a title acquired by being Major of the regiment which "used to muster about the hill towns in the grand old days of gingerbread and new cider. ' ' He was eccentric and one of the best known wags of Western Massachusetts, his neighbor, Mr. Post, the toll-gate keeper and village shoemaker, being another. When he and the major met there was likely to be fun. The major would sometimes drop into Post's shop to spend a Winter evening. The fact would soon be known all over the "Flat, " and the bar-room of Mack's tavern, near by, would be depleted of its habitual loung- ers, and the shoe-shop would be thronged while the major remained. A constant succession of stories by himself Mack Genealogy. 471/ and Post would keep the crowd in a roar. The one that told the biggest story was the one that chanced to tell the last one. He represented the town many times in the Legislature and was there noted for his short speeches and witty say- ings. He was the one who introduced the bill to have sheep and ministers taxed. While in Boston, he was often invited to parties and was ever a welcome guest. He was not very particular about his dress— some one asking him why he did not dress better, he said, "Do you suppose I would wear my best clothes in Boston?" He was once asked by an editor of a Democratic paper how it happened that his son could remain postmaster so long, when there had been a change in the administration. His reply was that there was but one Democrat in town and he could not write his name. At one time Caleb Gushing, in the Legisla- ture, undertook to be sarcastic upon the Hinsdale black- smith, whom he attacked in the copious Harvard College manner of which we have a few examples every year in the House. The members listened and laughed, and wondered what Hinsdale's sage would have to say to this young cockerel from Essex County. Mr. Emmons left his seat and went over toward Cush- ing's, where the orator was reposing from his fer- vid declaration. Some expected a collision— but no, —all that Mr. Emmons had to say was this: "Young 'man! what d'ye mean by tacklin* me so! Don't ye know any better 'n that? You must behave yourself, or else we won't have you round here, speakin' your pieces." It was not comfortable for the oratorically dis- posed to "speak their pieces." One time at his boarding house, they had pigeons— and had enough for all save one —the major was not served; there being a turkey in front of him, he drew it to his plate, saying, every man for his bird, thus turning the joke in his favor. Another time a turkey being placed before him, he said, "Gentlemen, how will you have this served, country style or city 472 Mack Genealogy. style?" The reply was country style, of course, where- upon he filled his plate and said, "Now help yourselves." He went to see the laying of the corner stone of Bunker Hill Monument. He joined the Monument Association, and each member had a paper with the picture of the monument on it. Daniel Webster, of whom Mr. Emmons was a great admirer, was chosen to give the address, and Mr. Emmons was desirous of getting inside the grounds where he could see and hear, but hardly knew how to man- age, as there were none admitted but ladies and officials. However, rolling up his parchment he walked along un- concernedly, right past the guard, who stepped aside, no doubt thinking he was one of "the powers," thus secur- ing himself a seat very near Daniel Webster. The pro- cession soon came up, with the box to be placed in the corner stone. It was on a truck drawn by four beautiful horses, and Mr. Emmons, standing near the corner, being a large, powerful man, stepped forward, lifted the box from the truck, placed it in position, stepped aside, leav- ing the masons to carry out their programme. He was an indulgent parent, rarely rebuking his chil- dren, loving to see them happy, and all others, doing all he could to make them so. The children were early in- structed in the catechism and Bible and were kept very strict on the Sabbath. He was ill a long time with dropsy, and when on his death-bed he called his family around him, bade them good-bye, requesting them all to leave the room, as he said he wished to be alone with his Maker. There were six children. + 2586. Monroe, b. Feb. 11, 1800. + 2587. Noadiah, b. July 5, 1802. + 2588. Eliza, b. May 11, 1804. + 2589. Laura, b. July 3, 1810. + 2590. Emily, b. June 2, 1815. + 2591.

Mack was an inn-keeper, and a very religious man, but in such a public place often entertaining things occurred as the following verifies. In those days Elder Jackson was a noted person, tall, well developed and the most muscular man in that vicinity. One Winter evening an Albany "bully" had strayed away up to Hinsdale on a spree. He was in Mack's bar-room about 9 o'clock and just full enough to brag. He was extremely desirous to wrestle, could throw any man in Berkshire county at "square-hold" and was ready to bet quite a sum of money on it. The chap was really a powerfully built fellow and evidently an ugly customer. The assembled villagers, however, assured him that they had no wrestlers in the region but still chafed him by saying that they did not think it would take much of a wrestler to throw him any way. The fellow displayed money and was anxious to bet. Finally some of the villagers offered to bet that the Bap- tist minister could throw him twice in three trials. The fellow fairly raved. He could throw the Baptist minis- ter and the whole Baptist church or any other man in Berkshire county. Finally quite a sum of money was put in Capt. Mack's hands by the Albany rough and duly cov- ered by the villagers. A messenger was started with a fleet horse and cutter (for the sleighing was fine) after Elder Jackson. The messenger found that the elder and family had retired, but he called the elder up, telling him he was wanted at Mack's tavern as quick as he could get 474 Mack Genealogy. there, that he would be detained there but a few minutes ■ and would be brought back home promptly. The elder dressed himself hastily, threw his large cloak over him and in a few minutes entered Mack's bar-room. Word had been quietly passed around and neai'ly every man in the village was there, several of the elder's congregation among the number. A discreet villager introduced the Albany man to the elder informing him that he (the Al- bany man) desired to have a friendly wrestle with him at ' ' square-hold. ' ' The elder said if it was the wish of his people he would cheerfully accommodate the gentleman. Of course it was the "wish." The parties at once "took hold. ' ' The bystanders instinctively drew back as far es the room would allow, and in an instant the Albany chap 's feet were flying through the air in close proximity to some of their heads, describing the arc of a circle, of which the elder was the center. Three times in quick suc- cession, by main arm strength, the elder jerked the fellow high off the floor and laid him as gently as possible, under the circumstances, upon his back. The fellow declared himself as fully satisfied, and the elder took his cloak and called for the horse and cutter. Capt. Mack put his Al- bany guest quietly to bed, the cutter was soon at the door, and as the elder passed out a package was slipped into his hand, and he was rapidly driven home. An examina- tion of the package the next morning disclosed a very sub- stantial "donation" in cash. There were five children by first marriage and six by second marriage. (1st Marriage.) 2592.

Wlien sixteen he entered Harvard College, graduated in 1832, and from medical school in 1837; studied medi- cine under Dr. Abel L. Pierson of Salem, Mass. He never, however, actively engaged in the practice of medi- cine. At an early age he became interested in the study of natural history and both in the neighborhood of his own home and during voyages for his health in South America and Europe he made extensive collections which Mack Genealogy. 477 have enriched the cabinets of the scientific institutions of Salem. Dr. Wheatland was chosen superintendent of the mu- seum of the East India Marine Society in 1837 and held that office until 1848, when, chiefly through his efforts, the Essex County Natural History Society and the Essex Historical Society, he being an active member of both societies, became united as the Essex Institute, to the building up of which he untiringly gave nearly the re- mainder of his life. Leaving the field of research to younger men and those who were becoming specialists in its different branches, he devoted himself for many years to local history and genealogy, and was widely Imown as one of the leading antiquarians from whose fund of knowledge constant draughts were made by workers in this field. He was one of the original trustees of the Peabody Academy of Science, and its vice-president, a trustee of the Peabody Museum of American Archaeology and Ethnologj^ of Cambridge and a member of the prin- cipal scientific and historical societies of the country. He was buried in Harmony Grove Cemetery, Salem, Mass. ; . In a sermon preached by his pastor the Sunday follow- ing his death, a tribute was paid to his character and life- work, and memorial addresses in his honor were delivered by members of the Institute at a special meeting April 17, 1893. Other notices and tributes to him may be found in Prescott Memorial, Goodell's address on Semi-centen- nial anniversary of foundation Essex Historical Society, also in memorial number of the Historical Collections of the Essex Institute. In his will he bequeathed his library to the Essex Institute to be kept for a reference library, also the sum of $15,000 to be invested and kept until it amounts to $25,000, when the income is to be expended for books. He also left all his historical specimens and papers to the Essex Institute. The will is dated in 1880 478 Mack Genealogy. and the executors are William Mack and Stephen G. Wheatland of Salem.

Dr. Mack, who is to make over a like amount to the Association, as requested by a deceased sister. The bequest is to be made in the sister's name. She also leaves $4,000 to Essex Institute and $1,000 to the Salem Female Charitable Society. Her per- sonal property is left in trust to establish a female in- dustrial school for the poor in Salem.

He was a manufacturer of woolen goods and supplied to some extent the Grovernment with goods during the war of 1812. The spinning, weaving and dyeing were at first done at the homestead, located about two miles from the "carding machine" which was in the "Hollow." From small beginnings the business increased, new ma- chinery was put in operation, and the whole process of making cloth was, in due time, carried on in what was known in later years as the "old factory." Increasing business demanded a new building which was erected in 1823. This was attended with disaster, quite dishearten- ing, but in due time was filled with machinery, not, how- [31] 480 Mack Genea logy. ever, with the labor-saving machinery of the present day. The spinning jenny and loom were worked by hand power and mostly by men of foreign birth. Woolen broadcloths of various shades were the chief i^roducts. In the year 184-7, anotlier three-stoiy mill was erected. Tt compared well with the other or "upper mill" in its capacity and designed for carrying on every branch of the business. About this time black broadcloths with cot- ton warp were made a specialty and by superior skill they were made so as to command the highest price in the New York and Boston markets. After his deatli tlie business was continued under name of S. U. Church Bros. For several years the business yielded only a small profit, but during and subsequent to the Civil War the demand for this style of goods increased and prices advanced. Serious drawbacks in the business were felt by the firm in the burning of their upper mill and afterwards by the great freshet of 1874, but they were overcome and a new and much better mill erected on the site of the one destroyed. After the death of S. U. Church Oliver Church took the property and later sold it. At present time used for crushing quartz. There were six cliildren. -h 2612. Sumner Uriah, b. Nov. 17, 1810. + 2613.

After sundry efforts he obtained a situation in the store of his uncle, David Mack, Amherst, Mass., where he remained six years during that time uniting with the Congregational Church and taking an active part in the Sabbath School. In 1840 he was induced to take a position as book-keeper in a wholesale importing house in New York City. Here he was exposed to many dangers and temptations, but by endeavoring to keep within the circle of religious influ- ence and engaging in church and Mission Sunday School work he escaped, untarnished. After two years he was induced to "Go West" locating first in Elyria, Ohio, but in 1849 locating in Cincinnati, where for more than forty years he was in active business where he built up for himself a reputation as a clear- minded, conscientious business man and upright citizen. As an evidence of the confidence which he inspired, it may be stated that in 1872, without a word of solicitation from him, indeed without the knowledge that his name had been mentioned for the office, he was appointed by Governor Noyes as State Commissioner of Insurance for Ohio, when he organized the department of insurance for the State, and for several years administered the duties of that office with marked ability. But above all, Mr. Church was known as a devoted Christian. Indeed, it was his unceasing effort to conform his life to the law of God, as revealed in His word, and he was for many years a prominent official in the church and Sunday school. He inherited from his Puritan ancestors those sturdy (jualities that in former days led men to the stake, or to the rack, in defense of their religious belief. But along- side of his inflexible uprightness, lay a warm, tender sym- pathy for all God's suffering creatures, which found ex- pression in deeds as well as words ; and today in more 482 Mack Genealogy. than one humble home there are those who are mourning the loss of their best friend. He is ' ' fallen at length, That tower of strength, That stood four-square to all the winds that blew." In 1867 he was one of the party who accompanied Mark Twain on that famous trip around the world which re- sulted in the publication of "Innocents Abroad." On board the steamer Quaker City he visited a large number of places of interest in Europe, Asia, Africa, including Egypt and the "Holy Land." He was a man highly es- teemed and respected.

In 1883 the town of Middlefield celebrated its Centen- nial, and in the afternoon called upon "the oldest inhab- itant," Mrs. Laura Mack Root, for a speech, which fol- lows : "Our fathers,— where are they?

This town has been my home for all but three years of my life. I am the only child living of a fam- ily of thirteen children. Our father, Colonel David Mack, came here in March, 1775, when this town was a wilder- ness and but eight families resided in the place. He locat- ed half a mile away, built a log hut, lived in it six years, and then built the house, that is now standing, which has withstood the storms and hurricanes of Middlefield one hundred and two years, and I know not that any part of it has been blown down ; but the piazza that was in front and the store that was on the north end of the house, have been taken away. Here our honored father lived, and died at the advanced age of ninety-four years, three months and fourteen days. I have lived under the government of all the Presidents of these United States; and I can remember when Gen- eral Washington died as well as I can when Lincoln and Garfield were shot. I can remember, too, when there were but thirteen States and four Territories in the Union. If I should tell you all I can remember, I should take up too nuich of your time.

Prominent among the representative professional men of this section we take pleasure in calling the reader's at- tention to D,octor Adam Miller, of Jordanville. who is one of the most proficient physicians and surgeons hereabout. The doctor is a native of the town of Columbia, his oa ' \y education was obtained at the schools of his home. At the age of 19 he began the study of inedicine with Doiitor C. H. Easton, of Cedarville, after which he attended the Geneva Medical College, graduating in 1844. He also took a course in the medical department of the University of New York. From 1853 to 61 was postmaster and has at various times held other local offices. During the Civil War was assistant surgeon in 152d N. Y. V., when he had occasion to obtain a wide experience in his profession. The doctor is too well known to require any extended comment at our hands, other than to say that he is highlv proficient and is esteemed by all who know him.

He had singu- lar clearness of intellectual vision, soundness of judg- ment, and firmness, energy and correctness of purpose, and these qualities were cast in a befitting physical mould. He was of large and finely-proportioned physique, stand- ing six feet in height with much breadth of shoulders and depth of chest. His facial expression with large, strong eyes, bore the evidence of much masculine vigor and of undoubted capability. He was from nature's handiwork easily an influential personage in the affairs of his fel- lowmen. Early in life he fitted himself for the medical profes- sion, and at the age of twenty-two settled in the town of Stockbridge, Madison County, New York. He lived there until his death in 1853, which latter event occurred seem- ingly much before the giving out of the store of useful- ness which he so manifestly possessed. Mack Genealogy. 509 The following obituary notice relating to him is taken from a Stockbridge paper at the time of his death : DIED JULY 29, 1853. In Stockbridge, on the 29th of July last, Doctor Henry T. Sumner, aged 52 years. The deceased had been a resident of this town for nearly thirty years, having settled among us immediately upon entering upon the duties of his profession, which duties he performed with credit to himself and honor to the association of which he was a member. For the last twenty years he had been intimately con- nected with the politics of the State and Nation, filling many places assigned him by the party to which he be- longed, and to the people as a member of the State Leg- islature, in all of which he performed such services as merited the confidence and respect of those empowering him to act for them. As a husband and father he was kind and indulgent, as a friend he was generous and confiding, and as a citi zen he labored for the welfare of his country/. His funeral was attended on the 31st, which called !o- gether one of the largest assemblages of people it !iad ever been our privilege to witness on occasions like this ; which, together with the solemn and impressive services tendered by the Odd Fellows and the Rechabites, made us realize that in death as in life he was respected. He has held many public offices, several times being Super- visor. Was Member of Assembly for Madison County, N. y., and was Postmaster twenty years. There were eight children, all born in Stockbridge. 2884. Martha Ann, b. April 6, 1833, d. Aug. 23, 1834. + 2885. Henry Tudor, b. June 28, 1834. 2886. Thomas Greenly, b. June 26, 1836. + 2887.

Mar. 17, 1804, Hebron, Conn., d. July 17, 1883, m. Feb. 27, 1834, Adaline C. Warren, b. , d. Feb. 12, 1888, Brooklyn, N. Y. (dau. of John Howard Warren of Stockbridge, N. Y.) Resided, Munnsville, N. Y. He grew to manhood at the family homestead and, after attaining his majority, following the tide of New England enterprise, went Westward and settled in the town of Stockbridge, Madison County, N. Y., where his elder brother. Dr. Henry T. Sumner, had located before him. Mr. Sumner was a man of fine presence and dignified bearing, one of the old-time gentlemen. A farmer— he was in large degree what might be termed a "model farmer." His land was often visited by people who en- joyed viewing the results of "clean farming." He pro- duced good crops when some of his neighbors, with land adjoining his own, and of the same kind, failed to get equal results. His mind reached beyond his personal in- terests and industries and grasped the subjects of local and national public affairs. Mr. Sumner's habit and trend of thought soon made him an authority on matters of history pertaining to his adopted home region and State at large, and many old residents could learn from him much of interest pertain- ing to their own locality, with which they had not before made themselves familiar. Endowed with a wonderful memory, his mind seemed as a storehouse of historical and other data, and much entertainment was furnished to friends and neighbors from this seemingly inexhaustible fund. For his gift for remembering names, especially. Mack Genealogy. 511 and for his faculty to interest a company, what would not this writer give! His sound judgment and logical, unselfish reasoning made him influential in matters of general and special public interest. In good offices of helpful counsel, and in other valued traits, he was a neighborly neighbor ; and, as indicated, in its analog, by the motto of the memorial win- dow in his memory, now in the Munnsville Congregational Church— "His truth shall be thy shield and buckler," he was honored for his incorruptible integrity of character. During the perilous times of our great Civil War the Government found in him a sure sustainer in time of need. Mr. Sumner was Postmaster for several years under the administrations of Presidents Pierce, Buchanan and Lincoln. Aside from this he never held or sought polit- ical office. But he was a leader, in the best sense, and, with other leading men of the county, was a potential fac- tor in party counsels. He was a Democrat, of the old school. Thus we have given brief glimpses of the characteris- tics of a man who seemed to be so much needed in the places where his lines were laid; yet who was required to pass, with the inexorable tide of change, on to the "great majority." A strong oak had fallen! A land-mark had disap- peared ! But the footprints of usefulness remained. An earnest and honorable life was closed : and William 0. Sumner rested with his fathers. Of Mrs. Sumner it may well be said— to have known her was to respect and love her. She united a rare com- bination of atti-ibutes. Alongside of devotion to her own domestic cares and interests were the traits that made her a social favorite ; and she found, or made, time to keep in touch with and foster interests beyond her own fireside. With a disposition of self-sacrifice in her home- life were intellectual qualities that made her known and [33J 512 Mack Genealogy. admired beyond that sphere. She had a soul for things poetic and progressive, an aspiration for things lofty and true, and she attracted persons in sympathy with such characteristics. Of sympathetic and well-balanced mind, her judgment was appreciated and variously availed of by those who knew her best. Life to her was not a dreamy opportunity for self-enjoyment, but a sphere of useful- ness and upward growth. She was companionable not alone for those of her own years ; the youth found in her, and she in them, enjoyable company. In the intellectual and musical life of the neighborhood Mrs. Sumner and daughters were potent factors. Their home on Academj^ Hill, Munnsville, was a place of edu- cational interest. The youth of the village, of both sexes, would often gather there and plan their school enter- tainments and church concerts. There, rehearsals were had in song and declamation and dialogue. Mrs. Sumner was the leading spirit in the work; and the young ladies of the household, all possessed of fine voices, contributed to the joy of the occasions. It was their mother who nur- tured the Sumner sisters and brothers in poem and re- cital, and when they stood before applauding audiences of the townspeople, it was was she who was entitled to their expressions of appreciation. There was much good talent in Munnsville and vicinity at that time, and much reciprocal pleasure and benefit abounded. Mrs. Sumner had business talents as well, coupled with a spirit of enterprise. She looked forward with a desire for development in the material welfare of her neighbor- hood ; for the building up of substantial business, educa- tional a?nd other interests, and for the beautifying of the village and its environs. These fond hopes she was per- mitted to realize partially, but not to large extent. If the impress of such personalities is valuable, how much more so the continued presence of the individual. When, however, the inevitable substracts them from our midst, we are comforted by the reflection that "the world Mack Genealogy. 513 is better for their having lived. ' ' But their places cannot be filled. The old Academy building which stood near by her home is gone : the ancient locusts remain, the white blos- soms and the perfume of which were typical of the soul of the noble woman who dwelt beneath and heard the music of the breeze that rocked their branches. That soul so true has passed to the better realm ! And yet it lives, still lives, in the reflex influence of her true life. She of whom we write was an ideal type of the mothers who make of our American homes nurseries of a people that shall stand the nation in good stead, whether in per- iods of prosperity or in times of peril. There were five children, all born in Munnsville, N. Y. 2892. Melvina Adaline, b. Feb. 25, 1835. Melvina Adaline, familiarly called Vina, inherited, in large measure, leading characteristics of both parents, uniting the strong and what might fitly be called patriotic temperament of the father, with the poetic and sensitive elements of her mother. Delicately and sensitively or- ganized, she was not well calculated to buffet the aver- age turmoils of life without the sustaining power of the best degree of health with which nature endowed her. This was sufficient to have started her well on in the preparation for a sphere of usefulness for which she seemed to have been designed. But a fateful accident interposed which dimmed her educational prospects and has blighted, to great extent, her subsequent life. In Miss Sumner's school years her native talents gave jjromise of conspicuous results. Studious and ambitious, she was always in the front rank, and in competitive exer- cises usually succeeded in bearing away first honors. She was foremost in song and composition. Her phenomenal voice might have won her fame and fortune, but she had no taste for a public life. Grradually a growing conscious- ness pointed the way to her probably true mission in either educational or literary work. She seemed near to 514 Mack Genealogy. new stepping stones of her desires and ambitions when, in her graduating year, as she was journeying homeward from Galway Seminary, the horses of the stage coach in which she was traveling ran away, with a result to her of injuries from which she has not recovered. Then began the shadows of a life, and the limitations upon a person so well calculated for the highest enjoyment and high- est usefulness. Miss Sumner's tastes and purposes have remained through the subsequent years not diminished, but aug- mented; and along these lines she has used the strength that remained to her to such extent as was practicable. In the order of nature, physical injury is supposed to impair mental utility, yet in the hours of her greatest suffering. Miss Sumner has written some of her best verse. Whether quickened or dimmed by pain, her mind has found comprehensive expression in lines of ennobling thought, which have appeared in various publications ; and in her indomitable fortitude she is still borne up by a faith that her best work is yet to come, and by a deter- mination to perform it. The writer believes that it is quite within the realm of possibilities that she may have that satisfaction and see the fulfilment of another poet's words: — "No sun has ever yet On noble purpose set." The power may yet be hers, in accordance with purposes nearest to her heart, to do some service of great effective- ness in bettering the condition of and lifting up the un- fortunate and the lowly, and in further promoting the wel- fare of humanity. The humble and the highly favored alike enlist her interest. Sympathy, unselfishness and breadth of intelligence can link all in a bond of interest, as "one touch of nature makes the whole world kin." Under normal conditions Melvina Sumner might have graced and honored any station in life. Her vision, how- ever, is lifted above such consideration. She has a high Mack Genealogy. 615 sense of the privilege of living, of the privilege and duty of effort and, with the beacon-light before her, of the Ijossibilities that inhere in applied will. She is sustained by the hope that in the dispensations of Divine Provi- dence the cost of her experience may eventually yield a greater good than would otherwise have been vouchsafed. She resides Brooklyn, N. Y., with her brother. The following are some of her poems : THE VIOLIN. The melting pathos of its voice Floats on the vibrant air In tones so pure, so sweet and choice, Angels might listen and rejoice In its soft breathing prayer. Its strains melodious and sublime Thrill the enraptured ear, And, lingering in the soul, enshrine A hallowed charm, that's half divine, A benediction clear. Voices of nature in it dwell The voice of wood and streams ; The song of birds its full heart swells The matin chime, and vesper bells Flow from it's magic dreams. The whispering leaves, stirred by the breeze. The Storm King's piercing moan. The tempest's lash, thro' writhing trees. And echoes from the storm-swept seas. O'er hearts left bare and lone. When deep hath answered unto deep. As tides of anguish roll. And hungry billows surging, leap Beyond the bound of tears, to ^weep A flood tide o 'er the soul. 516 Mack Genealogy. Thus speaks the wondrous Violin, Interpreter benign ; Its tones may draw the heart from sin, The grandeur of its strains may win The soul to heaven divine. Sing on, like Orpheus ' soulful Lyre ; Sing, spirit of the truth ; While mortals die, and souls mount higher With Paganini's soul of fire Thou hast perpetual youth. —Vina A. Sumner. Published December, 1895. THE EIDELWEISS. This flower, native of the Alps, in Switzerland, is found growing 'mid snow and ice ten thousand feet above the level of the sea. The little velvet Eidelweiss, Pure as the breath of heaven. This hardy child of nature lies Cradled secure 'mid snow and ice Above the storm clouds riven. The smile of God on its face beams. From mountain cliff and peak. And battlement of rock that gleams. With Amethyst and roseate streams— What language doth it speak?

And with their teeth, sharp tiny saws ; And children shout and clap their hands Watching their antics as they stand With upward gaze and tangled hair, While flutes Aeolian play in air, Among the shining silken threads Of golden, tawny, auburn heads ; Look up and bless the God above Who in the sunbeam gives us love. — Vina A.

Sumner, second, says he feels that the promise and pur- pose of his youth have not been fulfilled, and that there has not been much pertaining to his career, thus far, which seems to him of enough consequence to relate. He was a studious boy, and when not in school he generally worked on the farm or was otherwise busied. Like most boys he appreciated the incidental pleasures that came along; but "business first" was the rule. After missing the vocation of his eventual preference, and after devoting several years to commercial indus- tries, young Sumner embarked in 1869 in real estate busi- ness in the city of Brooklyn, now Borough of Brooklyn, Mack Genealogy. 521 New York City, where he still resides. Relative to his business life, we quote the following extract from the History of Brooklyn and Kings County, published in 1884: "William 0. Sumner, a prominent business gentleman whose real estate office is at 68 Broadway, was born in the town of Stockb ridge (Madison Co.),.N. Y. He is a son of the late William 0. Sumner of that town. . . . His character and manner of dealing have built up a large business, and he has become one of the best-known men in the city. He issued the first Eeal Estate Journal pub- lished in the Eastern District He is a mem- ber of the New York Board of Trade ; also of the Long Island Historical Society, and of the Brooklyn Civil Serv- ice Reform Association, a trustee of the Brooklyn E. D. Library, and of the E. D. Hospital and Dispensary. "Mr. Sumner is a man of untiring energy; always earnest in promoting public interests. He is a zealous friend of education, and is amongst those practical ob- servers who believe that the public needs demand im- provements in this department, and that in the adminis- tration of its affairs the fullest liberty within reason is true economy. " It is to such citizens as he, deeply interested in all that effects the public welfare, that the city is indebted for its vigorous growth and prosperity." Mr. Sumner is not a rich man. His activities are un- abated and he hopes that his work of greatest merit and value is yet to come. He has clearly defined purposes which, if consummated while yet he shall live, will cause him to feel that his life has not been in vain. 2896. Warren Steele, b. July 17, 1844, d. Aug. 18, 1863. He was very frail in childhood, without prospect of reaching man's estate. In school he was favored, and out of school his business was, in liberal degree, recreation and play. But the limitations imposed by his frailty 532 Mack Genealogy. could not restrain his active nature ; lie generally wanted a hand in all that was going on, and he won his way easily. He was ready to take his part in school exercises or in the outdoor games and pastimes. To him recrea- tion was as valuable as study, and by it he was gathering strength which was destined to play a part on distant fields in a cause of hational concern. Finally, the deli- cate boy grew up stalwart and strong, moulded much like his father, and his name is, of the family, the one that will live as long as the archives of the Government shall be preserved, on the long Eoll of the Nation's Patriotic Defenders. In the third year of the war, 1863, it became feasible for him to enlist and he went to the front in Co. A, 176th ("Ironsides") Eegt., N. Y. S. V. In leaving the parental home it proved to be as another sacrifice laid upon the altar of his country. With Gi-eneral N. P. Bank's Divis- ion he went to the Department of the Gulf, where he was engaged in battles in Louisiana, until prostrated by an illness that terminated his life in the IT. S. Army Hospital at New Orleans, August 18, 1863. Fine type of the true soldier, fearless and strong ; with an intelligent conception of the merits of the cause he fought for, Warren Sumner's appreciation of the objects of the war was tersely expressed in the following extract from a letter to his brother, written from Baton Eouge : "We must save the Union notv, or it is gone forever!" While such sentiments of devotion to country as in- spired the valiant men of the Union Army are cherished by the people, the nation will continue as an example to the world of what a "Government of the people, by the people," can depend on in emergencies that threaten its life. It was that spirit in our army which saved the Union, and thus continued the work of developing a great nation with a greater mission. The Union of States thus saved from dismemberment has already taken its place in the front rank of the great- Mack Genealogy. 523 est of world powers, and has become, or promises soon to be, the key as it were to the international situation, as a balance wheel of influence and power that will make for peace and progress. America's purposes are broad and humane, involving the best welfare of the world at large. What gave to our country this great power for good? The service of its armies of citizen soldiers !— the armies that have beaten down every obstacle, thus far, that has stood in the way of the organization, the mission and the destiny of the nation, under the firm guidance of states- men chosen by the people. A^'^lile Americans will ever deplore the need of war, which for a righteous cause has been a necessary evil, and for kindred causes may again become so, they will always be strengthened by the force of the example of the patriotic generations that have gone before. Hence it can be said of every hero who has perished that his country might live, "He is not dead, he only sleepeth." As we write of the subject of this sketch, his spirit still lives in alLthe good that inheres in the Union perpetu- ated, and in the Nation's uplift. The fruit of his sacrifice is the heritage of all coming generations. When the long roll was called, Warren's work was done. His marches o'er; A life, in rest, was well begun. By Heaven oi;dained forevermore. He was faithful to the Government which was born in the sacrifices of his ancestors on the fields of Stillwater, Brooklyn, and other sacred ground. 2442.

After enjoying a hearty supper on Friday evening and spending some time with friends she retired and had only time to say "I feel strangely. I think I must be going," when she died. She leaves two sons, H. Olin Keeney and James H. Keeney, prominent business men of Rock- ville, a daughter, Miss j\lary S. Keeney, eleven grand- children and her only brother. Dr. William Sumner of Bolton. Funeral services will be held at the house of H. 0. Keeney, No. 48 Prospect Street, Rockville, at 1 p. m. today. The following from the Hartford Times : Mrs. Nancy L. Keeney died very suddenly at her home on Prospect street Fi'iday night. She was one of Rock- ville 's oldest residents, being over 87 years of age, and had resided in Rockville for nearly thirty years. She bad been in her usual health recently, and spent Christmas with her son, H. 0. Keeney. She woke up last night, and complained of feeling strangely, and died in a few min- utes. She leaves three children. Miss Mary S. Keeney, H. 0. Keeney and J. H. Keeney, the two sons both being prominent merchapts in this city. She was also a sister of Dr. Sumner of Bolton. She was born in Gilead, and had enjoyed remarkably good health, and although nearly 88 years of age, never had a rheumatic pain or headache. Some years ago she fell and since then she Mack Genealogy. 527 had been lame, the lameness preventing her from getting out very much. The funeral will be attended from the home of H. 0. Keeney on Prospect Street at 1 p. m. on Monday, and the burial will be in Belknap. Mrs. Nancy L. Keeney, wife of the late Nelson Keeney, Esq., who was a very reputable citizen and thrifty farmer, and who lived in Coventry, Conn., near the village of Belknap, died on Saturday morning last in the 88th year of her age at Rockville, at the residence of her son, H. Olin Keeney, a merchant in that city. Mrs. Keeney was one of ten children of the Eev. Henry P. and Mary Goslee Sumner of the Gilead parish, town of Hebron, Conn. These children, composed of five sons and five daughters, all attained fullness of age. Only one of them. Dr. Charles F. Sumner of Bolton, is now liv- ing. Mrs. Keeney left living three children, the son named and James H. Keeney, also a merchant in Rock- ville, and one daughter, Mary S. Keeney. She had lost three sons, young men who gave evidence of much prom- ise. Mrs. Keeney was a woman of fine type in all respects. Her physical endowment was of the best quality. She had perfect health and had full exemption from the many pain-inflicting ills which so largely impair the human sys- tem. With this material well being was a mental nature wholly in keeping with it. She had clear, rational judg- ment, with the kindest and most charitable disposition. She possessed, too, a full conscientious faculty for readily distinguishing between right and wrong, and with it went decision that allowed no misgivings or waverings in quickly accepting and firmly adhering to what she thought was right. Hence she was always calm and settled in mind and afflicted with no depressions or confusions or tremblings about the conclusion she made. No woman's heart was tenderer than hers, none sympathized more fully with the aggrieved and suffering, or was more con- stantly thoughtful of friends and relatives, or loved her [34] 528 Mack Genealogy. family more, and more acutely felt the loss of her dear children. From early life she had an entirely clear and unfaltering trust in God and in the Christian faith. To the close of her life she maintained a vigorous and sincere interest in all the affairs that pertained to the wel- fare of her kin both at home and far away. She was deeply esteemed by all who knew her. 2447. Charles Fletcher Sumner (2240. 2170. 6. 1.) b. Mar. 28, 1817, Hebron Conn., m. Dec. 1, 1852, Josephine Maria White, b. July 6, 1834, Bolton, Conn. (dan. of Thomas Jefferson White, b. Mar. 31, 1802, d. Sept. 28, 1890, and Phebe Ann (Farmer) White, b. Oct. 31, 1809, d. Nov. 4, 1884, both of Bolton, Conn.) He is a physician ; resides Bolton. The doctrine of heredity as it applies to the family of man proceeds upon the belief that children must of neces- sity receive their mental equipment and characteristics from their parents and from their ancestral lines of de- scent, though holding that they are largely dependent for the same upon their parents. Upon this theory heredity is a perfectly natural pro- cess, one where effect, to employ a much used word, or where actual fact, or reality, results from a particular cause, which cause if it lay out in sight for inspection would readily account for the effect named. Certain it was at all events that the father of Charles Fletcher Sum- ner, Eev. Henry P. Sumner, herein under consideration, was a man of sound and good working intellect. It was liberal in quantity and of such texture as to make him judicial, independent and self-respecting in temperament. His mind was of the comprehensive order looking out into the agencies by which effects are produced and one which enabled him to see what courses should be taken to bring about the best ends for the well-being of all in in- Mack Genealogy. 529 terest. He took pains to inform himself from all needful sources before he came to conclusions and was in all ways rational and equitable in forming his judgments, but when once they were reached he had that fibre and force of mental stamina to maintain and adhere to them in ex- emplary manner. He was a Methodist minister in calling, of the broad church type, even at the time of his earthly being, more than two-thirds of a century ago. The doctor's mother, Mary Goslee, was a woman with strength of mind corresponding with that of her husband. She was fair, kind, just and affectionate to the fullness of measure. She was the mother of five sons and of five daughters. Upon each child she bestowed the care and solicitude that only an excellent mother can give. She died at the age of ninety-five, possessing to the end an ardent interest in the progress of all human affairs, near and far away. Now whether children inherit their mental and moral endowment from their parents and from their ancestors, but in maj or part from the former, or do not, certain it is that the doctor has the self-same qualities which his par- ents held and which have herein been briefly specified, displaying the same strength and clearness of mind, the same original and self-reliant faculties, as well as their active interest in the welfare of mankind, and all of them to full degree. Naturally there became manifestations in his early life, in the opening of boyhood days, of the decided presence of a desire to gather information and knowledge pertain- ing to helpful, and at the same time personally advancing, engagement in the affairs of men. From this impulse when a mere lad he came to attend the best available schools, to take note of current happenings of local and of public concern, and a little later on to bring to bear the same well-directed energy in seeking instruction in the 530 Mack Genealogy. university in which he prepared for the profession of medical jDractice. In short, the foregoing aptitudes of mind have made for the doctor a long, wide-reaching and thoroughly successful record as a physician, and have as fully given him an abiding and honorable record for a never-failing regard for the concerns of his fellowmen, home-wise, state-wise and wherever they may be found, and wherever matters affecting their betterment may exist. He has from youth been a constant student in the sub- stantial departments of literature. He has kept up and cultivated from early life a correspondence with personal, professional and political friends and especially with family ones whether they be near or remote. He has written much for public journals and made ex- tensive contributions to historical publications. He is almost final authority upon subjects of family genealogies and of historical data in the section surrounding his home in Bolton, Connecticut, having that clear, keen, born in- sight which is indispensable for excellence in those lines of marked worth. He studied medicine three years with Dr. H. T. Sum- ner and at the University of New York he graduated Jany., 1840, and succeeded to the medical practice of Hon. Jabez L. White, M. D., of Bolton, upon his retirement from professional life in 1844. From his first coming to Bolton, the doctor has continu- ously made that town his home. He has during that per- iod held numerous and responsible political offices, town, county and state wise, which have required h well-quali- fied and a well-balanced mind to execute. During the same time and covering the same area, he has been commend- ably identified with the public transactions of the Medical Fraternity to which he belongs, being President of the State Medical Society, 1870-71, and in Preston's History of Tolland Co., will be found the Medical chapter and the History of the town of Bolton, written by him. He has Mack Genealogy. 531 ever actively co-operated in the promotion of the good of the town in which he resides. He h&s heen a member of the School Board nearly fifty years ; also a trustee of the Reform School twelve years ; Judge of Probate, and Rep- resentative from Bolton in 1859, 1887-88. The doctor is of cheerful and friendly manner.. He is given to engaging humor, pleasing anecdote and ready conversation, and is always courteous in his bearing. He is held in high regard by all who know him. There were five children, all born in Bolton. + 2924. Cornelia Josephine, b. Sept. 6, 1853. 2925. Elizabeth White, b. Aug. 7, 1858, d.

At the age of eighteen he began as clerk in a general store, where he remained three years, and then became agent for the American Bible Society and labored three years in Southern Illinois. In 1859 he entered the ministry (hav- ing studied with his pastor, William E. Merriman, after- wards President of Ripon College, Wis.), preaching in several places in Illinois until the war broke out, during which struggle he was sent to Arkansas in the service of the Christian Commission. He remained for some time in the South for the benefit of his health, which had broken down during his pastorate in the First Congregational Church, Peoria, 111. In 1876 he was called to the church of his native town in Connecticut, and served as pastor for six years, return- ing to Illinois in 1883, when he became General Secretary of the Chicago Bible Society, in which service he con- tinues. Mrs. Mack, coming from Troy, N. Y., in 1838 with her 646 Mack Genealogy. parents, Deacon and Mrs. Silvaniis Towne, to Batavia, 111., her experiences were those incidental to a new coun- try. Reared in a thoroughly Christian home and with such educational advantages as were then available, she developed rapidly in strength and loveliness of character. At the age of thirteen she, together with her future hus- band, united with the Congregational Church at Batavia. Three years later she began teaching school. In 1850 she was married, and as a pastor's wife proved herself to be discreet, devoted, winsome, a helpmeet indeed. ' ' Strength and dignity were her clothing; the law of kindness was on her tongue; she reached forth her hands to the needy. Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her. ' ' Mrs. Mack was a deeply spiritual Christian. Her Bible was her daily food. Prayer was her vital breath. From her unfaltering faith in her Saviour and her abounding love for Him, came the Christ-like ministry so character- istic of her, and which so endeared her to the many she helped, and indeed to every one who knew her. Though shrinking from publicity her loving service bound up many a wounded spirit and fed many a hungry soul. For a number of years past her heart has been much drawn out toward the neglected and abused Chinese of this city. Her efforts in their behalf have borne rich fruits and have called forth many tokens of appreciation. Only two days before she went home Chinese pupils and friends brought to her numerous Christmas presents. For her funeral they presented a beautiful arching palm, one of them saying — ' ' It does not fade like flowers, it means vic- tory. " At her funeral six Christian Chinese were the bearers, and a delegation of sixteen from the First Con- gregational Church Chinese School, in which she had taught for eight years, accompanied her family to Bata- via, the place of burial. Though for many years in poor health, Mrs. Mack "patiently endured as seeing Him who is invisible," ever Mack Genealogy. 547 saying, "Thy will be done." In the intensity of her last sufferings she whispered: "My Jesus suffered more than this for me." "It is blessed to go home, I wish I could take you all with me.^' "Give them all my love," and then she entered into the joy of her Lord. In 1900, at the time of their golden wedding, they sent out the following invitation : To our Children, Children's Children, Kindred and Friends : Dearly Beloved :— We heartily invite you to unite with us in thanksgiving to Grod for fifty years of happy wed- ded life. Space separates us, so that we cannot ask you all to meet us now face to face, as we would love to do, yet there is a telegrajphy of hearts, and we may renew in memory the sweets of friendly intercourse in the years gone by. We look not for tokens of gold. Loving favor is better than gold. We have God's unspeakable gift. His hands are as gold rings set with the beryl. He bringeth us to the City of pure gold.

He soon became acquainted with a family named Blunt from Ohio. One of the sons afterward became General James G. Blunt during the Civil War, and a daughter marrier Dr. Kilpatrick, afterwards also a Gen- eral. With this family and his own Mr. Mack established the first Sunday School in that part of the territory. They together started another Sunday School at Mt. Gilead, about one and a half miles frorh Mr. Mack's home. A few years later he with ten or a dozen other settlers formed the first church at Garnett, Kan., and the church licensed him to ]ireaeh. In 1860 he removed to Hart- ford, Iowa, where he joined the Baptist Church, and in a Mack Grnealogy. 549 year removed to Carlisle, Iowa, where he used to preach, being ready for every good word and work.

The doors in his room were covered with bugs and butterflies pinned on — when he was a small boy. His mother often used to say, "Eb, why do you always have your pockets filled with stones'? I have to mend them everv week. ' ' When he came home from col- Mack Genealogy. 551 lege he generally brought some fellow student with him. Then they would start for mineral localities, be gone all day, coming back tired and hungry, but always ready to go again the next morning. He was fitted for college under the instruction of Eev. Moses Halleck of Plain- field, Mass., and graduated from Williams College in 1818-20. He continued his favorite studies at the Rensse- laer School, graduating there with the class of 1826. In that year he published his Manual of Mineralogy and Geology for the use of the students of that institution. He also studied medicine at the Berkshire Medical School in Pittsfield, Mass., receiving his diploma in 1830. In that year he was appointed junior professor in the Rens- selaer School and held the position until 1839. He was also a lecturer in the Medical School of Castleton, Vt. He first established himself as a practicing physician in Chester, Mass., then later in Williamstown, where he soon rose to eminence as a physician and surgeon. The case which' first brought him into notoriety was unique. A little daughter of Major Sloane accidentally got a pin in her throat, which all the older doctors in the vicinity failed in their attempts to remove. The mother of the child insisted upon having "young" Dr. Emmons called. He modestly approached the august body of doctors, and proposed the following plan of operatioia, which he suc- cessfully carried out: He cut a piece of dry sponge of suitable size, and tying a strong string to it, induced the little child to swallow it. After waiting a sufficient time for the sponge to become expanded by absorbing the juices of the stomach, he pulled steadily upon the string, and up came the pin, sticking in the piece of sponge. He resided in Williamstown until 1838, becoming the most eminent practitioner in Berkshire County. He was tutor, then professor of Chemistry and Natural History, holding this position until 1859, when the depart- ment was divided, he retaining the mineralogy and geology until his death. A cabinet of mineralogical and geologi- 552 Mack Genealogy. cal specimens was presented by him to the college after it had received the valuable accretions of twenty years. Having been appointed upon the Geological Survey of State of New York in 1836 and Professor of Chemis- try in Albany Medical College in 1838, he removed in the latter year to Albany, N. Y. He was afterward trans- ferred to the professorship of Obstetrics and remained on the faculty of the Medical College until 1852. During this period he went to Williamstown each year to deliver the course of lectures belonging to his professorship there. It is related of Prof. Emmons, as illustrating his enthu- siasm, that once when on a journey with President Hop- kins of Williams, and the brother of the president, he asked his friends to turn aside with him to visit a certain cave. They consented to the delay, although the brother was on his way to be married, and waited just within the entrance of the cavern, while Emmons penetrated to its inmost depths. After a time they heard the exciting cry, "I've got it! I've got it!" and out rushed the geologist, bearing triumphantly a muddy fragment of rock. He had secured a piece of evidence in support of his Taconic System. In 1836 a law was passed providing for a geolo- gical survey of the State of New York, and in the organ- ization of the staff for carrying on that work Dr. Em- mons was appointed by Governor Marcy to the charge of the second district, which inckided the northeastern counties of the Statp. This district was chosen by Dr. Emmons as a field more especially interesting to him on account of its mineral localities and minerals, and giving him a field more congenial to his tastes and experience. He made the public acquainted with the Adirondack region and named its principal mountains. In 1837 he named, described, and classified the celebrated Potsdam sandstone. Among the other rocks and divisions to which he gave a name or a place in geology are the Chazy limestone, black marble of Isle la Motte, Lorrain shales. Mack Genealogy. 553 Champlain group, Ontario group, Helderberg series, and Erie group. During the progress of this survey, also, lie made the important discovery that is most closely associated with his name. In 1842 he pointed out a great system of stratified rocks under the Potsdam, which he called the Taconic System. This announcement brought upon him a storm of contradiction and ridicule, and for a time he was scientifically ostracized. Subsequent dis- coveries by the Canada Survey, and by Barrande, in Bo- hemia, however, as well as the investigations of later eminent geologists, have completely sustained him. In propounding the term Taconic* System Prof. Emmons was following the instruction and views of his teacher, Prof. Amos Eaton, who promulgated his opinions regard- ing the age of these rocks in his lectures at Williams Col- lege from 1817 onward ; and subsequently in his lectures at the Rensselaer School to the end of his life, although never having published any satisfactory account of the relations of these rocks to the formations above or below them. Two years later Dr. Emmons described the primordial fauna, thus preceding the celebrated discoveries of Bar- rande, who recognized the priority of Emmons in the fol- lowing courteous language: "In comparing these dates it is clear that Dr. Emmons was the first to announce the existence of a fauna, anterior to that which had been established in the Silurian System as characterizing the Lower Silurian Division, and which I have named the Second Fauna. It is, then, just to recognize the priority, and I think it all the more fitting to state at this time, that it has not hitherto been claimed." Prof. Emmons's Report on the Second District of the New York Geological Survey was published in 1842. In the autumn of that year his colleagues presented his name to Governor Seward as a prope-r person to act as custo- dian of the collections of the geological survey then ar- *From the Taghkanic Mountains. 554 Mack Genealogy. ranged and in progress of arrangement in the old State Hall, Albany, and he assumed charge in 1842. In spring of 184.3 the Governor directed Dr. Emmons to investigate the agricultural resources of the State, and he published five volumes. About the time the third vol- ume came from the press he was appointed State Geolo- gist of North Carolina, and he published three volumes of reports. He found gold, purchased a large tract of land, his family spending part of the time there and part in Al- bany. When the war broke out he was not permitted to leave, but was obliged to make powder for the Southern Army. Jeff. Davis sent for him to go to Richmond to show them how to make it, but Gov. Vance would not per- mit him to leave the State. The anxieties and separation from friends occasioned by it probably hastened his death. January 11, 1901, a tablet bearing the following inscrip- tion was placed upon the house 159 Hudson Ave. (Albany, N. Y.), corner of High St.: In This House, the Home of Dr. Ebenezer Emmons, the First Formal Efforts Were Made, in 1838 and 1839 Toward the Organization of the Association of American Geologists, the Parent Body of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, by Whose Authority This Tablet is Erected. 1901.

It is interesting to note that Dr. Emmons was the first man appointed on the faculty of the Albany Medical College, his name leading those of James H. Armbsy, David M. Eeese, Alden March, etc., in the order of their appointment, and that this now historic home in this city is •still occupied by a member of the Medical College fac- ulty. Dr. L. H. Neuman. Besides the works already mentioned. Prof. Emmons published an account of the Taconic System (Albany, 184J-). Having been commissioned by Governor Edward Everett to report upon the Zoology of Massachusetts, he prepared a volume, devoted to the quadrupeds, which was printed at Cambridge in 1840. His American Geology, which appeared in 1855, was supplemented by a Manual of Geology in 1859. A clear-sighted and energetic worker. Dr. Emmons was a living force for the advancement of his chosen science. The Rev. Mark Hopkins, President of Williams College from 1836 to 1872, said of him : ' ' Emmons was a man of remarkable power and great accuracy of observation. He seemed to have an intuitive perception of the differ- ences in natural objects. He possessed an intense enthu- siasm in his work, but in his manner was remarkably quiet. I have never seen the two things combined to the same extent. His perseverance knew no limit. It ought to be added that, in connection with his science, he was deeply religious, possessing a high moral and Christian^ character. While he remained in Williamstown he filled the office of deacon in the First Congregational Church. "Williams College is greatly indebted to him for its collections in natural history.

Mar. 30, 1799, Chester, Mass. (one of a family of twelve children), d. May 10, 1881, Hartford, Conn. They had no children, but adopted several— a daughter of one of their adopted sons being Mrs. George Roberts of Hartford, Conn., to whom Mrs. Hamilton willed the greater part of her prop- erty. Mr. Hamilton spent his early life on his father's farm, but on the death of his father he went to Greenfield, N. Y., and was clerk in the store of an elder brother for a year. After that for ten years laid stone wall in Summer and taught school in Winter. After his marriage they resided one year in Chester, Mass. ; then went to Hartford, Conn., and ever after resided there. The first two years after his arrival there he superintended the farm of William H. Imlay, a former prominent citizen, whose estate he after- wards settled very judiciously. In 1832 he took charge of the Hartford Orphan Asylum, continuing in that posi- tion eighteen years. He was afterward general agent of the Hartford, Providence and Fishkill Railroad, remain- ing in that position three years. He left that to become superintendent of the West Columbia Mining Company— a western corporation— rescuing it from well nigh bank- ruptcy, and placing it upon a firm financial basis. His health becoming impaired, he returned to Hartford, where he remained, engaging from time to time in real estate speculations, the loaning of money and acting as executor and trustee in the settlement of estates. He left a widow, but no children. He has a brother and two sisters living, and a large number of nieces and nephews. He has adopted, during his lifetime, five chil- dren, three of whom lived to maturity, and all of whom are dead. Mack Genealogy. 557 Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton celebrated the fiftieth anniver- sary of their marriage on the 22d of November, 1876, and a large concourse of relatives and friends were present on the occasion. The worthy couple were then warmly congratulated on being permitted to celebrate an anniver- sary which comparatively few are spared to see. The occasion seemed to be the crowning event in Mr. Hamil- ton's life, and he often alluded to it in his conversation with pleasure. The attendance of relatives and friends was large, and it was an enj oyable occasion to them all. An appropriate prayer was offered by their pastor. Rev. Dr. Richardson, which was followed by the singing of the hymn sung at their marriage half a century ago. There were three nephews of Mr. Hamilton present, all of whom were clergymen, viz., the Rev. John A. Hamilton of Norwalk, the Rev. B. F. Hamilton of Boston, and the Rev. H. H. Hamilton of Waterford, Mass. The Rev. Mr. Hamilton of Norwalk read a sketch of the lives of the venerable couple, which was felicitiously drawn, and interspersed with touches of humor which elicited applause. The re- marks of the Rev. Mr. Hamilton of Boston were likewise apposite and similarly received. Mr. Hamilton was then presented by his nephews with a beautiful gold headed cane and Mrs. Hamilton was the recipient of a rich soli- taire diamond ring, the gift of her husband. The guests after singing to the tune of "Auld Lang Syne," the sub- joined verses, written by Dr. J. G.

Mr. Hamilton was a man well and favorably known, not only in Hartford, but in other states, especially in the West. He was largely interested in real estate at Cincin- nati, Chicago, Indianapolis and other western cities. He will be missed, not only at home but abroad. He was a Mack Genealogy. 559 man of strict integrity, and shrewd business tact and energy. Naturally endowed with an indomitable will, good judgment, and a keen knowledge of business, he was frequently called upon for advice, which he always gave willingly, intelligently and impartially. He has probably had the making of more wills and the settlement of more estates than any other man in tlie city. He left a large estate, estimated by good judges at over half a million of dollars. One of his latest gifts was an elegant memorial window to the Center Churcli. He has been a member of the Center Church for 52 years, and is probably one of the oldest, if not the oldest, communicants. The window, whicli is a gift to the cliurcli by Mr. Samuel Hamilton, is a beautiful specimen of ecclesiastical ornament. The shape of the window and the size afford unusual opportunity for artistic effect, which has been well improved. It is a triptych, the center portion of which is about tive and a half feet wide and fifteen feet high ; and the two wings of which are some twenty inclies wide and twelve feet high. This makes an area of about a hundred and twenty square feet. The two wings of the triptych are occupied by four scenes from the life of Christ, viz. : the Flight into Egypt, the Dispute with the Doctors, the Baptism of the Saviour, and the Marriage at Cana, together with the two Christian symbols of the anchor and the chalice set in elaborate ornamentations. The lower third of tlie center and main division of the triptych is chiefly occupied with the scene of the Holy Family in the manger at Bethlehem, a circu- lar picture about three feet in diameter. On each side of this lectern, on the border of the lower division are the names of the fourteen pastors of the church from its foun- dation in 1633 to this time. The upper portion of the middle division of tlie window —a portion whicli would constitute, in fact, about two- thirds of the central part of the triptych but for the round- ing of the arch at the top— is occupied with the chief [36] 560 Mack Genealogy. feature of the whole work; the figure of the ascending Christ. It is very rare that so graphic a picture is de- picted in glass painting. The attitude is natural and easy, the form seeming to arise with outstretched and uplifted hands from the clouds beneath the feet. The countenance is exceedingly sweet and expressive, lacking entirely the hardness so frequent in their general style of art. The flesh tints are soft and life like. The colorings of the robes of the rising figure are very brilliant and rich, but soft and harmonious. The robe or garment is a lovely blue, over which, about the upper portion of the form, wraps and falls away a rich olive-green mantle, whose upturned edg^s show a lining of crimson, the whole mantle bordered with gold. The effect is thoroughly bril- liant, soft and reposeful. The accessories of the central figure are in fitting harmony with its most graceful and prominent feature. The glass of which the picture is made is of the finest imported quality, and from the most distinguished house in England in this branch of the art. The composition is that of an artist brought up in this establishment, now a painter in the house of Cook, Redding & Co. of Boston, by whom the window was made. As an ornament to the oldest of our churches, and a monument to the memory of one of the oldest of its living members, it would be diffi- cult to suggest a more successful employment of the ex- pense involved. The will is dated December 9, 1880, and was witnessed by Benjamin A. Bourn, Elmer C. Quiggel and Charles H. Miller. The bequests of the deceased are as follows:— To his wife he gives the use and improvement of the house, barn and lot on the corner of Washington and Buckingham streets during her life, and to her, absolutely, the furniture, housekeeping articles, live stock, carriages and all other personal property. She is empowered to sell, with the consent of the executors, the real estate or any part thereof, the proceeds to be held in trust for her Mack tiENEALocY. 561 benefit. He gives to the executors in trust the sum of $100,000, and orders them to pay over to liis wife the inter- est, income and dividends arising tlierefrom. After her death the residue is to be paid over to the residuary lega- tees, with both the real and personal proioerty. To his granddaughter, Mrs. Ida M. Roberts, $25,000, and in case of her death the sum to go to her heirs. To Mary E. and Clara Gould, the house and lot in Chicopee, Mass., where they now reside, or in case of the death of either, to the survivor. The sum of $1,000 is given to each of the fol- lowing persons:— AVilliam Hamilton, Southwick; Frank- fort Gould, Chicopee ; Albert B. Rowland, Hartford; Mary E. Church, Middlefield, Mass. ; Mary W. Calkins, Buffalo, N. Y. ; Mrs. Julia Harrington, Amherst, Mass.; Agnes, adopted daughter of Louisa Ferris, Mrs. J. S. Curtis, Robert Sturtevant, Mrs. Mary E. Watson, Albany; Caro- line S.

He was prepared for college at so early an age that it was recommended that he wait a year, and his father placed him in a family for learning and speaking French exclusively. He was born in Middlefield, Western Mas- sachusetts, and a graduate at Yale at the age of nineteen. He studied law with his uncle. Judge Mack of Salem, and practiced it successfully for some years, but his con- science forbade him to try and "make the worse appear 568 Mack Genealogy. the better course, ' ' and he decided to abandon a profession which often brought discomfort to his extremely sensitive nature. He then turned to the vocation of teaching, for which he was particularly qualified, as he was by nature a student and a remarkable linguist, and had a wonderful faculty of imparting his knowledge. He taught success- fully both in New Bedford and Cambridge, but for many years he kept, with his wife's assistance, a young ladies ' boarding school in Belmont, where he was greatly respected as a citizen and founder of the public library. He sometimes received into his family young boys, and at one time his class consisted only of them. At last, en- feebled by disease, he abandoned the school entirely, but was always ready to receive his old pupils and friends. He was always a reformer, but ready to listen to all sides of any question and eager to provoke discussion amongst his pupils. This conversation was so full of instruction that to live with him was to learn. His chief characteristic was his desire to benefit his fel- low men, especially the friendless and oppressed, there- fore he early identified his interests with the anti-slavery cause— going South for a time to teach the "Contra- bands" before they were made citizens and taking per- sonal interest in securing freedom to Kansas. Thinking he saw in the "Community" schemes a better way of making Christianity a real living thing, he entered into a Community (near Northampton, Mass.) for three years, taking his family with him, and after great effort and sacrifice he was obliged to abandon the scheme and return to his vocation of teaching and continued in it until failing health obliged him to give up his school and to rest quietly in his pleasant home, made more beautiful by his care and taste. Here the last years of his life were passed in the patient endurance of many trials, but cheered by his sense of dependence on God, by family affection, hj love of Nature Mack Genealogy. 569 and of books, and by that ready wit and humor which gleamed forth even in hours of weakness and pain. A Kfe like that of Mr. :\[ack is not to be estimated by what the world calls success. The influence of such a life, governed by love of truth, of duty, and of humanity, may not always be appreciated from day to day. But when we look back upon it as a whole, and see its perfect consistency, always true to ideal aims at whatever per- sonal sacrifice, and never swerving from the strictest in- tegrity, we can well thank Grod from our hearts that such as he "have lived and died." His was a life which cannot be fitly described by com- mon expressions of praise. His character, like his features, had unusual dignity. His face was a study for an artist, and his portrait might well be taken for an ideal or historic subject. So the tine points of his character could best be expressed by a poet or by one who could paint in words the ideal life of the soul. Mrs. Mack while still a girl, aeepted a position as a teacher in the Friends ' School in New Bedford, and there also she made life-long friends. It was there slie became acquainted with David Mack, who was head-teacher in the same school. He had studied the profession of law, but would not enter on the practice of it from conscientious scruples in regard to some of its requirements. They were married in 1835 and soon afterwards opened a school in Cambridge, which attracted not onlj^ the daughters of the best citizens of Cambridge, but many from distant places. The school was in a most prosper- ous condition when Mr. Mack became interested in the system of Fourier, and inspired by a strong desire to carry it into practice. To give up a pleasant home and an assured means of support for the sake of working out a problem of life, was a sacrifice easy to one like Mr. Mack, who had the "cour- age of his opinions." An admirer and friend of Gar- rison, Emerson, Alcott, and other advanced thinkers and 570 Mack Genealogy. reformers of the day, it seemed to him that life was not worth living without an effort to do something for the elevation of society. Mrs. Mack fully appreciated her husband's ideals, but she took a more praci.ical view of actual life, and it was not without many misgivings that she acceded to his plans. Having done so,, she entered without shrinking into the severe labors required of her, and bore and suffered bravely to the end. She was never imbittered by her trials. On the contrary, she came out of them with renewed strength and sweetness. In her most ' ' laborious days ' ' she found some moments for reading and keeping up a knowledge of current litera- ture and events, and her conversation was enlivened by her quick observation and powers of graphic narration. While these accomplishments made her attractive to all, she was most dearly prized by her intimate friends for the ready sympathy which her own varied experiences made truly valuable.— "He that hath not suffered, what doth he know ? ' ' Very much was this dear friend called upon to suffer through the illness and the death of her loved ones. Yet she never forgot her deep cause for thankfulness in the love of husband and children. The former went on before her, but her children's care and devotion attended her to the last, and her own sweet spirit of resignation and cheerfulness never deserted her. A friend writes of her : ' ' Her mind was always open to the truth, and eager to embody it in her life-work. There was a constant growth in her character, and it was most lovely at the close of her life. To her weary heart God's angel gently came at last and whispered "peace, be still" to all its anxieties and its pains. (3 fear not in a world like this, And thou shalt know ere long. Know how sublime a thing it is To suffer, and be strong. ' ' Mack Genealogy. , 671 There were four children. 3150. David, b. Sept. 22, 1836, Wrentham, Mass., d. April 6, 1894, San Bernandino, California. He attended a private school in Boston when a youth for some years, but when fifteen went to Germany, where he remained two or three years, and on his return taught German in his father 's school, at the same time studying geology with Prof. Louis Agassiz for two or three years. He taught public school in Middlefield, Mass. During the exciting times in Kansas before the Civil War he went there and took up a Government claim. The climate did not agree with him and there he had his first serious ill- ness a severe attack of chills and fever, weakening his constitution very much. While weak from this illness he thought he would try out-of-door life and went to Syra- cuse, N. Y., to learn the nursery business and taught Ger- man to private pupils. He improved and finally after many attacks of illness he decided to study medicine, attending the Harvard Medical School, of which he was chosen librarian. While there he contracted rheumatic fever, which persecuted him mentally or physically all his life. It weakened his heart and after many years affected his brain. While studying medicine he volun- teered as a medical cadet during the Civil War, and after the close of the war he entered the ISTavy, where he re- mained six years and was Asst. Surgeon U. S. Navy. After resigning he went to Germany for post-graduate courses -in medicine and served with distinction during the Franco-Prussian War, receiving the Iron Cross from the Emperor. After returning to this country he settled in Springfield, Mass., and had a successful practice, but he again had malarial fever, which turned into rheumatic fever, and he suffered intensely for many months— break- ing up really all the rest of his life, for although he at- tempted to attend to his profession in Colorado, where he was at the Ute Indian Agency for two years, and again ^ ^^ at Nassau, New Providence, Bahama Islands, as well as 572 Mack Genealogy. in Belmont, Mass., and Atlanta, Greorgia, his ill health prevented his ability to remain long in any of these places, and finally he drifted to California and bought a fruit ranch. His health improved and for six years seemed very well, but he was again overtaken by his enemy, and after various short respites for the better he died there in 1894. He was a brilliant, intellectual man, a thorough scien- tific student and general favorite. His life seemed sad and blighted through no fault of his, but simply his ill health entirely ruined his prospects. He always seemed cheerful in spite- of his misfortunes. + 3151. Laura, b.

David Mack, a citizen held in high esteem for his personal worth, and honored among the public men of the old Bay State. Mr. Mack highly prized being descended from a family whose members had filled with dignity and honor military, civil and ecclesiastical 5Ti Mack Genealogy. positions and exerted no small influence for good on New England society. The family influences which surround a Massachusetts boy of decided Purita,n ancestry, early shaped Mr. Mack 's character, so that all who knew him in his boyhood confidently predicted for him an honorable and useful career. It was his parents' choice and his own desire that he should have a collegiate education, but in consequence of his eyesight failing him, just at the time he was jareparing for college, he was compelled to relinquish this intention and on arriving at manhood he embarked in mercantile pursuits at Amherst, Alass., first as clerk, then as pro- prietor. Although this business was not congenial to him, he re- mained in it several years. It was a common remark with him in after life that "there was no place like a country store for a young man to sharpen his wits and study human nature." He always desired to go West, and in 1848 he visited Cincinnati, Ohio, where he became inter- ested in the insurance business through Mr. W. B. Ro- bins, who was connected with him by marriage. The Pro- tection Insurance Co. of Hartford at that time was the leading company of this country and Mr. Robins was Gen. Agt. of that company for the Western States. Mr. Mack took the Cincinnati agency of the Protection, which he held for nearly two years, and then he became Mr. Robins ' assistant in the general agency. Mr. Robins was much engaged in outside business, and the duties de- volving upon Mr. Mack were arduous and responsible. In 1854 the Protection suspended, but that part of the business under Mr. Mack's supervision had been uni- formly profitable, and in a circular which Mr. Robins sent to the stockholders showing the profitable results in the West he said: "You are specially indebted to the faith- ful services of Samuel E. Mack as my assistant since May, 1848, without which the foregoing results could not have been realized. " Mack Genealogy. 575 In 1856 Mr. Mack was apointed agent for the Home of New York and several other companies at Cincinnati, and for several years he did a successful agency business. The Home Company was then but three years old and its Western business was comparatively in its infancy. That company soon discovered his ability and secured his services to promote their interests in the West; his evi- dent straightforward honesty, ability and tine personal appearance gave him great influence with agents ; and no small share of the Home's success in the West is due to his good judgment in the selection of agents and the per- sonal interest he took in their business. That the Home Company appreciated his services is evident from the fact of their having selected him to go to St. Louis and super- vise the large Western and Southern business, and in 1859 he moved there and for seven years gave his atten- tion to it with honor to himself and profit to the company. During this time he also held the General Agency for the New York Equitable Life. These various connections made him widely known, both in correspondence and per- sonally. If he had a fault in business it was his strong confidence in human nature, which was sometimes abused; his judg- ment in such cases was charitable in the extreme, and there are not a few who owe to his kindly forbearance or friendly promptings such success as they have attained in life. After his death the Directors of The Home Ins. Co., The St. Louis Merchants ' Exchange passed resolutions of respect to him highly eulogistic of his qualities as an un- derwriter, as a citizen and a man. At the time of his death negotiations were pending which, had he lived, would have resulted in his becoming the president of a prominent company. The foregoing paragraphs relate almost exclusively to Mr. Mack's public career, and a personal friend who had some insight into his life says: "The private virtues of [37] 576 Mack Genealogy. Mr. Mack were so large a part of the whole man that they were not concealed in his ordinary business intercourse, but gave daily and delightful evidence of the pure heart and the benevolent spirit that dwelt within a noble body. Those who came within his influence were made aware that there were nobler ends in life than mere money- getting, mere self-aggrandizement. Those who knew him most intimately loved him most tenderly. Religion was no mere sentiment with him. Perfectly free from anything like "cant," no man was ever more implicitly obedient to duty. Having once decided what was right he spared himself all calculations about results. The life of a good man is his best eulogy, and his truest epitaph is written in the hearts of his friends.

EATON, Secretary. DEATH OF SAMUEL E. MACK. On the 18th ult. President Stannard called the members of the Merchants ' Exchange together and announced the death of Samuel E. Mack; whereupon Mr. W. B. Alvord presented the following resolutions, which were adopted : Whereas, An all-wise Providence has removed from earth to another sphere of existence Samuel E. Mack, Esq., an esteemed member of this Chamber, a citizen long engaged in a prominent business in this and other cities, in which he was always known as a man of the strictest integrity, combined with rare judgment and true gentle- manly deportment ; and Whereas, It is deemed proper to recognize appropri- ately the merits of the deceased, by the expression of our sorrow for the loss we sustain ; therefore. Resolved, That in the death of Samuel E. Mack the Union Merchants' Exchange has sustained a loss we deeply deplore. Resolved, That in his particular vocation as an under- writer he had the high respect and esteem of his asso- ciates, as well as of all those with'whom he came in contact in the prosecution of his business. Resolved, That he was endeared to, and appreciated by, a large circle of friends for his noble and generous quali- ties of heart, and for the character he sustained as a true Christian gentleman. Resolved, That his bereaved family have our entire sympathy, and that we sincerely condole with them in their deep affliction, and a copy be furnished the newspa- pers for publication. We are permitted to quote from a letter, from an officer of one of the organizations before referred to, enclosing 578 Mack Genealogy. resolutions adopted by that body, which forcibly ex- presses our own idea of the man. ' ' I avail myself of the occasion to say for myself, that I regard Mr. Mack as one of the best specimens of humanity that I ever had the happiness of being acquainted with. Prompt, honorable, just, courteous and kind; he had the confidence, respect and esteem of all in this community, who knew him." He was a Christian gentleman, who so unostentatiously carried his Christian character with him, and made it a part of his daily life, controlling and guiding him in his transactions with his fellow-men, whether in his private or official relations, that he commanded the esteem and respect of all who knew him, and very many outside of his own bereaved family circle will mourn with them that they "shall see his face no more," and are deprived of the benefits of his experience and counsels.

He then entered a store as clerk, and when tlie merchant died, in company with his brother he bought the goods and continued the busi- ness. For over thirty years he was postmaster and his brother assistant. He was a very kind hearted man, kind and over indulgent to his children, very kind to the poor, often, after he had closed the store for 'the night, filling a basket with provisions and carrying it to some poor fam- ily. The brothers were very lenient towards their debt- ors, never taking advantage of a poor man to enrich themselves. His health was miserable two or three years previous to his death.

About 1848 he represented his town in the Legislature, and from that time was a sufferer with inflammatory rheu- matism. His widow for the last twenty-three years of her life lived with her son, Solon E., in Springfield, Mass. She was always very entertaining and an industrious, en- terprising woman. JJp to her last illness she furnished a remarkable instance of wonderful preservation and from this fact it had been confidently hoped that she would live to see her hundredth birthday.

Y., where he bought a large farm and lived several years. While there he was elected to the State Assembly, serving two years. He went from there to West Virginia in 1859 to superintend some salt mines, remaining two, years. Just before the Civil War he returned to Hinsdale, Mass., soon after buy- ing the John Talcott Mack place, which he greatly im- proved and made additions to it, till now it includes over six hundred acres and is known as the Payne stock farm, which is well stocked with blooded horses. He had the reputation of being one of the most thorough and progressive farmers in the county, raising some of the finest horses bred in his section of the country. He also raised Durham and Holstein cattle for twenty years. He was a man who commanded the respect of all who knew him, by reason of his ability and integrity. He had served his town in many positions of trust and duty, and Mack Genealogy. 583 the County as commissioner for six years, was President of the Berkshire Agricultural Society and always took a hearty interest in its affairs. For thirty years he was on the church committee— re-elected every year. This com- mittee, made up of the pastor and the deacons, with the elected member, greatly enjoyed his "sound wisdom and discretion." Year after year he was a most efficient member of the school board. For many years he was a teacher of young men in the Sunday School; he was an earnest, consistent Christian, and most regular in his at- tendance upon all religious duties.

In 1838 he began business, being president of the J. J. Warren. Co., manufacturers of fine leather goods of all descriptions. He was a mod- est man and generally refused public office, however, once accepting the trusteeship of the Hitchcock Free High School in Brimfield. After Mr. Warren's business caused him to reside part of the time in Worcester, he kept the old home in Brim- field for a summer residence, and Mr. and Mrs. Warren were always identified with the interests of that town. Mrs. Warren's absence did not diminish her attachment for Brimfield and for the people there, by whom she was held in most affectionate esteem. Her social qualities and her cordial sympathetic and generous nature made her beloved by all who knew her. Her home was a cen- ter of hospitality and she»was constantly bestowing kind- ness upon those around her. She was a large-hearted woman, possessing a charitable spirit as well as an un- usually benevolent disposition. A personal interest al- ways attended her benevolent acts, and there are many people for whom the world has been made brighter by the consciousness of possessing a friend as well as a bene- factor in Mrs. Warren.

His scholarship was of the first order and a year at Western Reserve College awakened in him high hopes of completing a thorough educational course, but alas his anticipations, by force of circum- stances were doomed to bitter disappointment. He was an independent thinker and a lover of reform. For many years he stood almost alone as an advocate of the rights of the slave, and his ballot was the first and only one cast in the city of Painesville when that first prohibi- tion political action was adopted. He resided in Paines- ville about twenty years, returning to Windliam about two years before his death. He went to Windham with his father, Dea. Isaac Clark, July 11, 1817.

She was educated at the academy of her native town and took the preparatory course of Oberlin College, but owing to financial reverses in her father's family she was compelled to give up her cherished dream of college life and bravely took up the task of teaching, that she might assist in educating her younger brothers and sisters, she being the eldest. Her studies did not end with her school days, but continued through all her busy and useful life. In later years she took up the Chautauqua work and completed the four years' course of reading in 1882 just before re- moving to Iowa, but after the organization of a C. L. S. C. Circle in Spencer she was an active and useful member. 588 Mack Genealogy. She was always ready to give her influence in the cause of temperance. She was the possessor of a remarkably rich contralto voice and was the leading member of a musical club, which during the Civil War gave from time to time excellent concerts for the purpose of raising funds to supply the necessary help to soldiers in field and hospi- tal. She was a devoted Christian, active in charities both public and private— her hand was ready and quick to aid any one in distress. Practical in all things if she had work to do she gave it where the remuneration would sup- l)ly the greatest need. With eyes to see, and an intellect to appreciate the beautiful in nature and art, her most enthusiastic work was given in the line of horticulture and floriculture. She was a member of the Portage County Horticultural So- ciety in Ohio and did efficient service in that body for years. She joined in 1884 the State Horticultural Soci- ety of Iowa, and her name was held in honor as one of the capable workers. Being a learned and skilful botan- ist, she was employed to make a sectional report of the flora of northwestern Iowa. With all her services in public life she was a devoted wife, a true home-maker and a source of emulation to her many friends on account of her brilliant conversa- tional and sweet womanly social qualities.

Mr. Smith was the oldest son of the late Azariah Smith, Sr.,- one of Onondaga's early pioneers, whose high character and commanding business qualifications were well known throughout the State. Mr. J. Calvin Smith possessed many of those qualifications. His intellectual acquirements were also of a high order. He had a fine taste and was a scholar of great culture. Few private libraries contain a more choice and valuable collection of books than does his, and it was his delight to consult them. With the exception of about twenty years of his mid-life, Mr. Smith was a resident of Manlius Village. During those excepted years, he was a successful merchant in New York City, when having acquired a competency, and his health being somewhat impaired, he returned to his native village where he was foremost in all that tended to its welfare. He served as deacon and treasurer of the Presbyterian Church for many years to the time of his demise. He took a great interest in the adornment of the village cemetery of which he was the secretary and treasurer. His useful life ended, he now sleeps peacefully there where the green grass grows over his grave. But the memory of his many virtues, his earnest Christian char- 594 Mack Genealogv. acter, his kindness to the poor, and his noble unselfish life will ever be cherished in this community.

Mack Genealogy. 599 Her parents were both of New England origin and gave their children the advantages of good education and careful religious training. July 6, 1848, she married, at ber father's house, Dr. Azariah Smith, who had tem- porarily left his missionary field in Western Asia for this purpose. She sailed with him on the 22d of the same month from Boston for Constantinople, and from there made the overland journey with him to Aintab, where a few months before he had commenced the missionary en- terprise among the Armenian population, which has proved so eminently successful. She very speedily be- gan to aid in this work, by visiting the women of the com- munity at their homes, and gathering them into groups and finally into larger meetings for instruction and re- ligious conversation. For the sake of increasing her in- finence, she fell in with their customs to the extent of closely veiling her face while walking in the street, and of following a respectful distance her husband when they went out together. After three years of incessant labor her husband entered into his rest, in June, 1851. She con- tinued her work among the women for two years longer, when her bodily vigor was broken by a severe illness, and she came to this country in hope of restoration and re- turn. She, however, did not so far regain strength as lu make it prudent for her to resume missionary work, and so she cheerfully devoted herself to a life of Christian usefulness and service in this country. Her home was chiefly with Dr. Strong 's family, where she lightened the domestic cares of the pastor 's wife, and actively engaged in all good works among the members of his congregation as opportunity offered, visiting the sick and instructing in the Sunday School. Many of the older members of Park Church, Syracuse, will recall her self-denying and unos- tentatious labors during the years of Dr. Strong's pastor- ate there. She not infrequently varied her labors by visits in the families of her nephews and nieces, when hickness or increasing cares furnished the occasion. She 600 Mack Genealogy. lived mainly for others.

Mar. 27, 1823, in Aurora, N. Y., d. May 20, 1895, at Port Deposit, Md. His widow resides in Huntsville, Tenn., with her daughter "Bessie." He graduated from Hamilton College in the class of 1843, and from Auburn Theological Seminary in 1846. While still actively engaged in the ministry he departed this life on the 20th of May, at the age of seventy-two years and two months. It is not often that at the age of seventy-two years one Mack Genealogy. 601 lias spent nearly fifty years in the active work of the gos- pel ministry, and also in connection with the Presbyterian Church. Yet such was the case of Dr. Strong. Had he lived until January, 1896, he would have completed fifty years since licensed by Presbytery to preach. At the time of his death he was ministering to the church at Otisco, Onondaga County, New York, to whose pastorate he was called from the seminary just forty-nine years ago in June, 1896. In this then large and influential parish he labored eight years and was greatly blessed of God in several large ingatherings into the church. From this field he passed to the Presbyterian Church of Monroe, Mich., which pastorate was signalized by a revi- val even greater than that in his first charge. He then went to the First Church in Galena, 111., the Park Central Church of Syracuse, N. Y., the Pine Street Church of Harrisburg, Pa., Kalamazoo, Mich., Clyde, N. Y., Ho- boken. New Jersey, Waukesha, Wis., and in every field he left an uplifted church, new-born souls, and an improved community with hosts of friends. Dr. Strong carried to his grave the effects of his zeal and fidelity to that first and very difficult parish on the hills of Central New York. In all his subsequent life he was hampered by the over-work of his youthful days. Yet every church that knew him as pastor, saw and felt his indomitable purpose to advance the interests of his Master. His genial manner, handsome and commanding personal appearance, his gentle sympathy with all in dis- tress, his fidelity to principle, his untiring efforts to make the most of himself for the good of others, endeared him to a multitude throughout the country. In Michigan he was foremost in pushing Home Mission forty years ago. In the dark days of the war he labored unceasingly to uphold the government, and as chaplain of the famous Seventh Michigan Volunteers, many of whose officers and a large number of its privates came from his church, he showed his devotion to his country. Wherever he went 602 Mack Genealogy. his voice and influence were strongly on the side of trutli and righteousness. As the years rolled on Dr. Strong was determined that none should think less of him and of the ministry because of his age. He was an example of laborious, untiring effort to keep himself at the front. Never did he more diligently prepare himself for the pulpit than during the last year of his life. Rarely did he appear before his congregation with a sermon that was not specially pre- pared for them. Called back to his first charge in March, 1894, he spent the remaining fourteen months of his life amidst the memories of his first love. Here as in every church to which he had ministered, numbers were led to Christ. It was his great desire to continue in Otisco until the close of June that he might complete forty-nine years since beginning his life's work. But Grod had ordered otherwise. With his wife he went to Port Deposit, Md., to visit his youngest daughter, expecting in a fortnight to return and resume his work in Otisco. While in appar- ent health he was suddenly stricken with an exceedingly painful disease, and after intense suffering he breathed his last on the 20th of May in the assured hope of eternal life with his Lord and Saviour. Tenderly and lovingly his remains were laid to rest on the 23d inst, in the beau- tiful cemetery in Kalamazoo, Mich., surrounded by many to whom in former days he had ministered, and whose affection now manifested itself in gracious deeds to his sorrowing family. But his work is not at an end. Though being dead, he yet speaks, not only in the lives of those whom under God he helped heavenward, but also in his own family, all of whom are engaged in active work in the Church of Christ. It was a great delight to him that his daughters had given themselves so unreservedly to Christian work ; his son also, that he had given his life to the gospel min- istry. In 1891 Dr. Strong published a volume of discourses Mack Genealogy. 603 on ' ' The Reality and Glory of Redemption. ' ' An appre- ciative writer has said that ' ' the title of the book reveals the sincere faith of the author. If read with the thought in mind of the immortal life upon which this servant of our Lord had entered, these sermons are now most im- pressive. ' ' There were nine children. 3304. William Salmon, b.

The town of Middlefield has been somewhat aroused from its usual quiet by an event of rare occurrence. On the 16th of March, 1815, Solomon Root of Middlefield and Laura Mack, the youngest daughter of Dea. David Mack of same place, were married. Twenty-five years after on the 15th of March, 1840, their second daughter, Maria D. Root, and Matthew Smith, a farmer of Middlefield, were married. Thus the golden and silver weddings of parents and children occurred on the 15th and 16th of March. It seemed most suitable to the parties, unitedly to celebrate two events of so unusual occurrence and so nearly simultaneous. Accordingly preparations were made and invitations given to meet at the house of Matthew Smith on the even- ing of March 15th. This house and the farm connected with it have been in the family since the first settlement of the town. In the spring of 1775 Dea. David Mack set- tled in Middlefield, and eighty-four years ago built the Mack Genealogy. 605 house in which the weddings were celebrated. About one hundred relatives were invited, of whom eighty-four were present, being by a singular coincidence exactly the number of years the house had been built. The large and commodious house was thrown open from basement to garret, and all parts of the house were vocal with mirth and festivity. In one room the elderly people were call- ing up reminiscences of earlier days ; in another the younger ones were gaily chatting upon present topics, or singing ; and in another room a crowd always surrounded a table upon which the gifts were deposited. So pleasant and happy a company has rarely been seen together in Middlefield. Refreshments were served at 10 o'clock, and at midnight, the time when the two days met, the guests were assembled in the parlors and dining-rooms, as far as possible, when John Smith, Esq., of Boston, only brother of Matthew Smith, and son-in-law of the golden bride and groom, introduced the speeches of the occasion, in some happy remarks, touching upon many incidents and associations connected with the earlier years of the parties, whose weddings were being cele- brated and bringing smiles and tears in quick succession to the faces of many friends. He was followed by S. F. Root, son of Mr. and Mrs. Root, who gave many interest- ing family statistics, some of the most pertinent of which were, that the golden bride was born and married in the same room in which she now was celebrating her golden wedding ; that the silver bride was also born in the same room; that both of the maternal grandparents of the silver bride, and both of the maternal grandparents of the silver groom, died in the same room; and twelve wed- dings had been solemnized in the same room, at ten of which the same minister had officiated. In the eighty- four years which the house had been built only six deaths had occurred, viz., the four grandparents of the silver bride and groom, a sister of the golden bride, and a daughter of the silver bride. Reference was also made 606 - Mack Genealogy. to the longevity of the Mack family. Of the thirteen chil- dren of Dea. Mack, the youngest, when she died, was 45 years of age ; three died between 45 and 50 years of age, one between 50 and 60, one between 60 and 70, four be- tween 70 and 80, and two between 80 and 90. Dea. David Mack was 94, and his wife 70 years of age, when they died. Two only of their children are now living : Mrs. Azariali Smith of Maulius, N. Y., aged 77 years, and Mrs. Root, the golden bride, aged 70 years. A maternal uncle of Dea. Mack lived to be 100 years and 40 days old, and lived with his wife 76 years. The result of the union of the golden bride and groom has been four chil- dren, who are all living, and were present at the golden wedding, the youngest of which was in his 39th year. Ap23ropriate speeches were made by others, among whom were Metcalf J. Smith of Middlefield, E. P. Smith of Amherst College and Lyman Payne of Hinsdale. Mr. and Mrs. Root and Mr. Smith replied feelingly, and made every one glad that he was there. At 2 a. m. the party began to break up, but so great was the charm that many continued all night, "till day light did appear." It was both a sad and joyous occasion. Among the sorrowful thoughts was the fact that on the 1st of April, the old homestead, that for ninety years had been owned by Dea. Mack and his descendants, was to pass into stranger hands, and its history no longer connected with the his- tory of the Mack family. (See No. 379 for further sketch of Mr. Smith's life.) The immediate cause of death was from the effects of an apoplectic shock less than a week previous. No doubt the recent death of his daughter, Mrs. Warren, hastened his end. Mr. Smith early identified himself with the Baptist Church in Middlefield, and the relation was continued to his death. Starting out as a farmer, and teaching school in winter, he became an important factor in the commu- nity, and occupied the position of selectman, school com- Mack Genealogy. 607 mittee, road commissioner, and in 1878 represented his district in the Legislature. He was a man of public spirit, was chiefly instrumental in the formation of the Highland Agricultural Society, giving the land used as their Fair- ground, and was its first president, and for six years was a member of the State Board of Agriculture. As a breed- er of Durham cattle he had a more than local reputation. Previous to the Civil War he was a strong abolitionist and untiring in his efforts to forward the anti-slavery move- ment.

Mr. John Smith, whose death was announced in last week's paper, came to Fair Haven in 1866 as superin- tendent of the Scotch Hill Slate Co., where he remained for ten years. In 1875 his health was impaired, and in August, 1876, he received a sunstroke which seriously af- fected his memory. In October, 1881, he removed with his wife and daughter to Middlefield, Mass. After Au- [39] 608 Mack Genealogy. gust, 1883, he failed very perceptibly, and finally so lost his mental faculties as to wander from home, and in Feb- ruary, 1884, was admitted to the hospital at Northampton, Mass. He was a faithful, earnest Christian, and was for many years an active member of the Baptist Church. As a wise counselor, and faithful friend, he was one who com- manded respect from all who knew him. He was born March 18, 1816, and died at Northampton, Sept. 3, 1885. His funeral was held from the Baptist Church at Middle- field, Sunday a. m., Sept. 6. The church was filled with loving and sympathizing friends. Text, 1st Thess, 4, 13, "That ye sorrow not as those without hope," etc. The hymns were "Beyond the Smiling and the Weeping," "Friend After Friend Departs," and "Asleep in Jesus' Blessed Sleep." We feel that for our friend there is not alone a "blessed sleep," but a joyous awakening in the presence of his Saviour, where his mental vision is no longer clouded, but with quickened intellect he shall sing the praises of his Redeemer forever more. MRS. ELVIRA SMITH. Mrs. Elvira Smith, widow of John Smith, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Thomas Martin, No. 120 Windsor avenue, of dropsy, which followed an attack of pneumonia. She was sick thirteen weeks. She was 83 years old, having been born Sept. 24, 1819, in Richmond, Mass., the daughter of Solomon and Laura Mack Root. She had lived in Hartford for the past sixteen years, re- moving from Huntington, Mass. She was a member of the South Baptist Church, having been identified with the denomination since 1834. She is survived by a son, John H. Smith of Dalton, Mass., and one daughter, Mrs. Mar- tin ; also one brother, S. F. Root of East Douglas, Mass. The funeral was held at her late home Monday after- noon at 3 o'clock. The Rev. Henry M. Thompson, pastor Mack Genealogy. 609 of the Memorial Baptist Church, conducted the services. Burial was in Middlefield, Mass., Tuesday morning. There were three children. + 3325. John Henry, b. July 12, 1842. 3326. Sophia, b. April 21, 1847, Middlefield, Mass., m.

Senator, and it has been suggested by some of the number that the printed account be kept by putting it in this book. Mrs. Warren's death last March was the first of that circle. The banquet was held at Cooley's Hotel, Spring- field, Mass., that being the most central point for all to assemble. The account and Menu follow : It was, in fact, a reunion of first cousins, and the com- pany which sat down to dinner at 2:30 o'clock included Mrs. Warren, Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Stanton of Huntington, Mr. and Mrs. L. A. Clark of Northampton, Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Smith of Dalton, Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Cottrell and Miss Helen M.

All but one were natives of Western Massachusetts, that one being born in Vermont, and eight were born in the good old hill town of Middlefield. The day was principally spent in social converse, but the excellent dinner was enlivened by toasts. Mrs. Gov. Warren offered the sentiment, ' ' Our host and hostess." She said: "The cousins here assembled de- sire to thank you for this occasion, memorable as long as life shall last. We wish you long lives and happy ones, and trust that this reunion will serve to strengthen the affection which has already existed between us. Were it possible I would duplicate this meeting in the new State of Wyoming. It is the unexpected that often happens. 610 Mack Genealogy. and therefore I invite you, one and all.We congratulate you and ourselves that this occasion, so generously and thoughtfully planned and so long anticipated, has proved not only a delight to the ajopetite, but a 'feast of reason and a flow of soul.' " Mrs. Warren closed by reciting Thomas Moore's "One Bumper at Parting," all glasses being filled with "Manitou ginger champagne." The table was elaborately decorated with Jacqueminot and La France roses. COOLEY'S. Dinner. Soup. Consomme Colbert, a la Royale. Pish. Boiled Bed Snapper, HoUandaise. Potatoes Parisienne. Olives.

No member of the Right Worthy Grand Lodge receives a more cordial greeting from the prominent orders of the country and none commands higher respect.

The house was decorated with potted plants, cut flowers, evergreens and ferns. Evergreens were festooned around the arch between the two parlors and around the bay window in the front parlor, where the bridal party stood. ' Promptly at 12 o'clock to the strains of the "Lohen- grin ' ' wedding march, played by Miss Lulu Dudley on the piano, and violin by Mr. Horace Haskell of Grloucester, the bridal party appeared in the following order: Miss Florence Mae Lewis of Stoneham and Mr. Francis S. Eoot, Miss Frances Crocker Grifford of Provincetown and Mack Genealogy. 613 the best man, Mr. William E. Putnam, Jr., of Brookline, followed by the bride and groom ; then the parents of the latter, Mr. and Mrs. S. F. Root and Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Tillinghast of Boston. The ceremony was performed by Eev. Charles P. Pierce of the Congregational Church. The bride presented a very attractive appearance. She was attired in a white brocaded India silk, entrain, and carried a large bouquet of bride roses tied with ribbon. Her bridal veil was an heirloom in the family. She also carried her mother 's wedding handkerchief. The first bridesmaid. Miss Frances Gifford, who was an intimate college chum of the bride, was attired in tur- quoise blue silk mull over blue satin, and carried pink roses. The second bridesmaid, Miss Florence Lewis, was dressed in lemon organdie over lemon lawn, with trim- mings of white chiffon and lace, and carried yellow roses. The gentlemen were attired in black and wore bouton- ieres of a single white ros©^. The mother of the bride, Mrs. S. F. Eoot, was dressed in a black striped silk with black cut chiffon over white satin and wore white pinks. Mrs. C. B. Tillinghast, mother of the groom, was cos- tumed in brocaded lilac silk with trimmings of white lace anl lilac velvet. After the ceremony the young couple received the best wishes and congratulations of the entire company pres- ent, about 100. During the reception several selections on the piano and violin, played by Miss Dudley and Mr. Haskell, were rendered. Miss Georgia Hodgdon of Wal- tham sang "O Promise Me" and other selections. The young people also enjoyed dancing. A pleasant feature of the occasion was the writing of the names of the guests in the "marriage chimes." The dining-room presented an attractive appearance. Refreshments were served here. 614 Mack Genealogy. A telegram of congratulations was received by the bridal conple from Professor Azariab. Eoot and wife of Oberlin, Ohio. The presents, which were very numerous and elegant, were displayed upstairs. The groom received a check from bis employer; bis associates presented the bride a china closet; the best man gave an elegant carving set. Other presents included a hand-painted dinner set, sewing machine, leather couch, check, cut glass, hand-painted china, fan, pictures, table linen, embroidered centerpieces, rocker, lamps, vases, sofa pillow, lemonade glasses, books and innumerable pieces of silver. The presents of the groom to his best man and ushers were scarf pins in the design of a wishbone. The bride's gifts to her bridesmaids were gold lace pins, two hearts entwined. Mrs. William T. Briggs was one of the elderly guests present from here. Among the out-of-town guests were the following : Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Tillinghast of Boston, Mr. and Mrs. Ernest C.

The going-away gown of the bride was navy blue pebble goods, with hat to match. Mr. and Mrs. Wonson will reside at 23 Mozart Avenue, Roslindale. They will be "at home" after January 1. Mack Genealogy. 616 I didn't see the veil, mark you, but I am told that a bride in East Douglas, Mass., this week, wore one over a cen- tury old. It was an heirloom and had come down from wayback. I was given a sketch of its history today, but neglected to make a record of the data at the time, and cannot now give it in detail. However, it is said to have been a charming veil and, notwithstanding its great age, very becoming to the pretty bride who has just worn it. 3330. Francis Solomon, b. May 5, 1879, m.

In 1849 he organized the Glens Falls Dividend Mutual Insurance Co. and became its Secretary. In 1864 he reorganized the company into a stock company, The Glens Falls In- surance Co. and became its President, in which office he continued to the day of his death, being, it is said at that time, the oldest president of an insurance company in the United States and the longest in continued service as an insurance officer, forty-two years.

Warren Little died at his home in 4th ward Wednesday afternoon at 2 :40 of pneumonia, after an ill- ness of one week, aged 75 yrs, 6 mos., 28 days. Warren Little was born at Middlefield, Mass., May 15, 1818. When a boy he subsequently lived at Peru and in 1836 moved with his father to Lenox, Mass. He attended Lenox and Wilbraham Academies. In 1841 he was united in marriage with Sarah E. Landers of Lee, Mass., who departed this life in Grinnell, Nov. 28, 1868. During six- teen years of his earlier life he was a preacher in the M. E. Church, occupying pulpits in Massachusetts, Connec- Mack Genealogy. 623 ticut, New York, Vermont, at Simsbury, Bristol, Madison and other places. He was a man of deep affections and always became endeared to Ms people. His parishes and congregations were usually large, especially at Bristol, where both his membership and congregation numbered several hundred. In 1866 he moved to Iowa, embarking in the hardware business in luka, now Tama, a partner of A. B. Mack. In 1867, he came to Grinnell, and at once opened a boot and shoe store. June 3, 1870, he was joined in marriage to Sarah M. Mack, who died at his home in Grinnell, Jan. 23, 1891. In 1870 he united with the Congregational Church of this place, his wife being a member, under the pastorate of Rev. Dr. Cochran. In 1872 he purchased a farm three miles east of the city and occupied it for ten years, returning to Grinnell in 1882. Here the past ten years of his life have been passed. Warren Little was a familiar figure to Grinnell people. Always kind, affable and courteous, all respected him and recognized in him a man of the strictest integrity. He was especially faithful in his attendance upon church services, and his voice was always a frequent one in prayer and exhortation. No one of our people will be missed at meetings for prayer and exhortation more than he. Always faithful, always earnest and true, his life has been a Christian preparation for the better life within whose portals he has been ushered. The last few days of his life were sad ones, no one of his children being near him. Mrs. Mack has been compelled to be at the bedside of Miss Minnie Mack, and none of the other children were able to reach him. A short time before his death he sent for his grand-daugh- ter, Miss Mary Mack, who has been confined to the house for a week, and dictated a letter to his daughter, Mrs. Mack, and his grand-daughter.

He succumbed to an attack of pneumonia, from which he had been suffering for the past nine days. De- ceased was 86 years of age to-day. His death, therefore, occurred on the anniversary of his birth. Mack Genealogy. 627 E. H. Mack, Sr., was born in Weedsport, N. Y., the eldest of a family of twelve children. Three brothers, living in Weedsport, survive him. He started life as a school teacher and during his young manhood spent several years in Georgia and later in Kentucky. At 'the age of 30 years he entered the mercantile business in Weedsport and experienced a successful career in that line until his retirement in 1891. He conducted a dry goods and hardware business and also owned a flour mill in his native town. After his retirement he came to Erie and had since made his home with his son, Mr. E. H. Mack, Jr. Deceased was an active Christian and nearly a life-long member of the Baptist Church. He was bap- tized on his 14th birthday, and has been a deacon in the church for more than 50 years. He was one of the char- ter members of the Calvary Baptist Church of this city and had served continuously as deacon since the organi- zation of the congregation. He had been in fairly good health up to the time of his last illness and on the day that he was taken sick had been out for a short walk. The deceased is survived by his aged wife, three daugh- ters and one son, namely Mrs. E. U. Smith, of Califor- nia; Misses Emma and Ida, who live in this city, and E. H. Mack, Jr., with whom the deceased made his home. The funeral services will be held at the Mack residence tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock, and the remains will be taken on the noon train to Weedsport, where they will be interred in the family burying lot. Mr. Mack was for many years engaged in the profes- sion of teaching. He was a teacher in a select school in Weedsport, N. Y., in the early forties, and also taught for a time in Munro Collegiate Institute at Elbridge and was later principal of a school at Oswego. He also taught a couple of years in the South prior to his marriage. He was for a time president of the Board of Trustees of the Weedsport Union School and for many years, in co-op- 628 Mack Genealogy. eration with Eev. A. E. Hewitt, conducted the oral exam- inations at that school. Later he gave up his educational pursuits to enter busi- ness life and at different times was engaged in business in Oswego, Rochester, Davenport, la., and Weedsport, N. Y. For a number of years he was a member of the firm of ^Donovan & Mack, general merchants, and afterward in co-partnership with Amasa B. Harmon conducted a hard- ware store. In 1891 he removed to Erie, Pa., where his son resided. Mr. Mack was an earnest Christian and had been an active member of the Baptist Church for seventy-two years and served for over half a century as deacon. He was a man of kindly nature and much beloved by all who knew him. He had a great fondness for children and was a general favorite with them. The remains were brought to Weedsport Wednesday and funeral services were held at the home of his brother, Samuel J. Mack, South Seneca Street, Thursday morning at 9 o'clock, Eev. C. J. Beach officiating. Interment was made in the Mack plot at Weedsport Eural Cemetery. 2705. Eoyal Lyman Mack (2359. 2209. 2167. 6. 1.) b. June 7, 1819, Ira, N. Y., d. Mar. 10, 1888, Eochester, N. Y.

At twelve years of age he made a profession of his faith in Christ and' was baptized in Otter Lake, near Meri- dian, N. Y., his evidence of conversion being clear and convincing. In his fourteenth year he was engaged as a clerk in a dry goods store, where his truthfulness, candor and faithfulness won for him hosts of friends. His first business enterprise was with a younger brother in Os- wego, N. Y., in dry goods trade. Mack Genealogy. 629 He afterwards spent several years in banking and mer- chant milling at Davenport, la. Eetnrning East soon after the close of the Civil War, he settled in Eochester, N. Y., purchasing an interest in the D. E. Barton Tool Manufactory and continued his interest until a few days before his death. His judgment and advice commanded the respect of all who knew him, and his straighforward business habits inspired confidence in his ability and uprightness. He did not resort to law to settle difficulties, but preferred concession or arbitration, to litigation. His contributions to the church, to charitable institutions and private wants were liberal. He was a matter-of-fact man— never in- dulging in jesting. His promise he would perform, as readily as his written obligation. His extreme kindness of heart and amiability of disposition drew to him friends wherever he was known. He was orthodox in religion, and never indulged in speculation upon Scripture or embraced any new theories. He met the trials of life with uncomplaining fortitude. His last illness was an unusual example of patient resig- nation, a calm, hopeful frame of mind (which had been characteristic of his entire life), being especially marked. In the beginning of his last sickness, he said, "If it is the Lord's will to take me, I am ready to go at his command." A few hours before his death, when informed of his ap- proaching end, he said, "The Lord will support and strengthen." There was one child. + 3443. Mary Campbell, b. Aug. 25, 1849. SERMON OR ADDRESS, By the Rev. A. F. Barrett, D. D., at the Family Residence, 162 Lake Avenue. Delivered March 12th, 1888. This would indeed be a sad occasion were it not for the teachings of the Bible. There would, also, be no con- solation to offer to these bereaved hearts. There would, 630 Mack Genealogy. also, be nothing to do but to bow in unloving and unwill- ing submission to the behests of a blind and cruel fate that pitied not and promised not. But while there is sor- row in this home to-day there is also joy. While there is a sense of bereavement and loneliness there is also a consciousness of the Divine companionship, and the as- surance of a reunion that shall never again be severed. While an hour hence we shall, with uncovered heads and with tender service, lower this lifeless form into the ground, and there shall be the suppressed agony of sepa- ration, yet, also, we shall with the ear of our faith hear the cheering words pealing down from the sky, " I am the resurrection and the life ; whoso believeth on me, though he were dead, yet shall he live again. ' ' Take away from us our Bible and the world becomes a charnel house of dead hopes and of blighted prospects, wherein is nothing beautiful, nothing lovely, nothing that contains aught of comfort or of promise. But with the Bible in our hands we can say ' ' Oh ! grave, where is thy sting ; oh ! death, where is thy victory. Thanks be to God who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ." In this home ever since it was established, the Bible has been the authority. Its promises have cheered and com- forted; its commands have settled all questions of doubt; the example and precepts of its central figure, the Lord Jesus Christ, have been the moulding infltience and su- preme delight. It has been the home of peace and rest and sweet confidence, the abode of faith and reverence and love, and the basis of it all has not been the perish- able but the imperishable— the word and the will and the love of Grod. The occasion of our coming to this place to-day is to pay our last tribute of respect to the memory of a good man, and to extend our loving sympathy to this widow, these children and these friends— to all of whom the -life that has gone out was an abiding joy and a blessed com- Mack Genealogy. 631 fort.

His word was as good as his bond, and he never divorced religion from his business. In his home he was loving and true ; in his intercourse with the world he was simple and unostentatious ; in the advo- cacy of his opinions he -jyas courteous and yet firm. He was open to conviction and yet loyal to the truth. He was cautious in the expression of an opinion on any subject, especially- when great values were involved, never allowing himself to be carried away by an enthusi- asm that was not born of candor and of wisdom. When once he became convinced that a thing ought to be done he engaged in its accomplishment with a zeal and a persis- tency that would be satisfied with nothing short of suc- cess. He was one of those positive men, that have posi- tive convictions, and bring things to pass even in the face of great opposition. In a business way he was eminently successful, but though devoted to his business he did not forget obligations to God and his church. "Whenever his physical condition would permit he was always found in his place in the church, and none were more attentive to the preaching of the word than he, none were more inter- ested in the faithful unfolding of the truths of the gospel than he. He was not ashamed in any place of the gospel of Christ. He believed in it, and by it he aimed to live day by day. He was especially fond of certain portions of the Scripture that dwelt on the greatness and glory of Grod and that emphasized the necessity of a holy walk be- fore Him, as well as before men. He was strongly at- tached to his own family and to his brothers and sisters. The ties that bound them together as children, around the father's hearthstone, never weakened. He loved their companionship; he rejoiced when they rejoiced and sorrowed with them when they were in trouble. He loved the beautiful world in which Grod had placed him,. 632 Mack Genealogy. and lie therefore clung to life, and yet he said "if it be God's will that I leave all this beauty and all this sweet- ness of living, I cheerfully submit, knowing that he has in store for them that love him, pleasures infinitely purer and loftier and more enduring." And when at last his physician said to him that he could not last long, he made no protest, but let go of earth and reached out with trust- ing faith toward the heavens yonder where the inhabi- tants never say they are sick, and where the blight of death never falls. And I cannot help thinking that you, my dear friends, in this house to-day who mourn the de- parture of a companion, a father, a brother, a friend, can take comfort in that declaration of the Scriptures which says : ' ' Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints." The death of one of God 's children is only the passage of a soul from weakness to power, from temptation to triumph, from earth to heaven. And so it becomes but another exliibition of the power of the gospel and is therefore precious in the sight of the Lord. And, then too, as the ending of the hard fight and the entering upon the rewards of victory adds another to the Jewels of the King, it is precious in the sight of the Lord. He has said they shall be mine when I make up my jewels. And, then again, God loves to show his own children how lov- ing and tender and strong He is, when, surrounded by the terrors of the grave and the shadows of the valley of death they look up trustfully into His face; and because the great Shepherd is there, and his rod and staff are there, they fear no evil ; and hence He has another oppor- tunity to show his faithfulness to his promises and once more the death of one of the Lord's saints becomes pre- cious in his sight, because to the living it is an occasion of drawing nigh to God, and becomes a new inspiration to holy living and a new argument for the exercise of faith- in him, who alone makes a reunion possible. And so the death of a saint is precious to God, both for the sake of Mack Genealogy.' 633 Mm who lias been exalted, and for your sakes who will soon follow. It is not necessary on this occasion to tell you the his- tory of this man who has gone from our sight. It is not necessary for us to know that he has lived 68 years, as to believe that he will now live countless millions of years, and that then he'll have "no less days to sing God's praise than when he first began." It is not so necessary to say that he has transacted business in several towns on this little earth of ours, as that he '11 now have leisure to roam at will throughout the limitless paradise of Grod, unworried by business and untrammeled by care. It is not so important to say that he was one of six brothers, all noble and true men, servants of the most high God, as to say that henceforth he will be one of that great com- pany which no man can number, that belong to the family of God, and say Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty. It is not so necessary to say he had amassed a goodly fortune, as to say that by faithful service to Jesus Christ and lov- ing faith in the efficacy of his blood, he has gained a title to a mansion in the heavens that will never wax old, but will brighten through all eternity. It may be said he was for a long time a faithful and trusted member of the Board of Trustees of the Eochester Theological Semin- ary; but after all, though his name might not be men- tioned yet, they who are educated in that Institution will go forth to proclaim the gospel he so much loved, and for which he was willing to sacrifice his time and labor. His influence will go forth, and God who knows all, will say, ' ' his works do follow him. ' ' I need to add only a few words more. You, my dear sister, the companion of him whose memory we hallow to-day, are not a stranger to your husband's God. In him you have trusted these many years and his service has been your meat and drink. In times of darkness you have sought light in him. In this time of darkness you'll find that all about him is light. In times of weakness you 634 Mack Genealogy. have asked him for strength and he has graciously answered your j^rayer. In this time, when you feel that your staff is broken, lean on Him and you shall be buoyed up by the omnipotent arms of his love. In times of lone- liness you have poured out your heart to him who will never forsake his children and you have been comforted. Even so now, as you go to the sacred apartment wherein you have had so many heart communions with him who will go thither with you no more, you may see the form of one like unto the Son of Man, and you shall be com- forted. Put your hand of trust into his great hand of loving tenderness and all will be well. In conclusion let me say to you all, children, brothers and friends, be true to your father's God, emulate your brother's faith and accept your friend's Saviour. So shall you mingle in glad reunion on the Heavenly shore, and there shall be no shadows on your thresholds ever- more. 2706. William Warren Mack (2359. 2209. 2167. 6. 1.) b. Oct. 14, 1821, Ira, N.

She thor- oughly enjoyed and improved the opportunities cultured Boston offered for literary and musical attainment. In 1887 she graduated with honors from the N. E. Conserva- tory of Music and the Monroe School of Oratory. Ee- turning to Grinnell, she was teacher of piano three years in Iowa College. As rare and charming a conversation- alist as she was a teacher, she made friends everywhere, and she was ready and willing to assist in entertainments and it was partly because of her modest willingness to serve her friends that she found such a warm place in the hearts of all Griimell people. In 1890 she went to Europe for study of music and travel and remained a year, and upon her return went to Boston for further study. In Fall of 1892 she began work as instructor of piano in the Conservatory of Music, Mid- dletown. Conn. Fortune soon threw the management of the conservatory into her hands, where she remained until her illness, June, 1894. She was able to be removed to her. home. At the time of her death she was the contralto in the quartette choir of the South Cong. Church, Middletown, Conn., being also a member. Her life was so free from selfishness, so given up to others that she was long missed by the towns-people, and her funeral was one of the larg- est ever attended in the city, the large church being liter- ally crowded.

C, and soon entered a Dry Goods House as clerk, but was soon advanced to the position of Cashier for the entire house, but as soon as hot weather came he was obliged to resign and return to Lenox, engaging in lumbering quite extensively, gain- ing great physical strength.

He was a member of the First Presbyterian Church, and his pas- tor, Eev. J. W. Partridge, said: "Henry Mack was a thoroughly good man. He was one of our most successful business men, by his industry and application establishing an extensive trade. He was the very soul of honor ; all who dealt with him having the most implicit confidence in his integrity. One whose official position had given him a general knowledge said to me— 'I consider him the business man of Canon City. He never stoops to anything mean or questionable. ' This is the universal testimony. The resolutions of the citi- zens have expressed the respect and honor in which he Mack Genealogy. 645 was held. All feel that in him we have lost a puhlic bene- factor. He did not selfishly hoard his acquisitions, but he nsed them generously, being found among the most liberal contributors to every laudable enterprise. Among his fellow men his conduct was admirable. He was mod- est, straightforward and charitable. Even the bad could not assail him, and the good were everywhere his friends. ' Society must mourn the loss of such a man. But the church will feel his death more keenly. In her he was a pillar. As his pastor I loved him. No member who will not testify to his worth. He was not a talker, but an actor. His life and his property were consecrated to the Master. Almost invariably, no matter what was the pressure of his other engagements, he was in his place at the Sabbath services and the weekly prayer meetings. Always he held the world subordinate to the claims df, Christ. No wonder that at last he could die in hope. This , is a prayer I heard him whisper on his death bed : "0 Lord, Thou knowest what is best. Let Thy will be done. ' ' RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT. On Wednesday evening, April 12th, there was a memo- rial service held in the First Presbyterian Church, at which the pastor appointed a committee and submitted to them the following resolutions, which were approved and afterwards adopted by the whole congregation : Whereas, It has pleased our loving Father to call our dear brother, Henry Mack, from the ranks of the church militant that he might join the hosts of the church trium- phant; therefore, Resolved, That though this seems to us, in many ways, a dark and mysterious providence, yet because we believe our loss is Ms gain, we submit in tears and sorrow to His will who "doeth all things well." Resolved, That we bear glad and united testimony to his exceptional worth; to his Christlike walk; to his 646 Mack Genealogy. strong and faithful character, singularly adorned with graces of the Spirit ; and to his faithfulness, liberality and earnest support in every effort, both temporal and spirit- ual, for the prosperity and upbuilding of our beloved church. Resolved, That his removal from us, which shocked us by its suddenness and made our hearts bleed by its sever- ing of tender ties, may, nevertheless, be richly blessed to us ; for we will cherish his memory as a precious legacy, we will try to emulate his noble example, and we will indulge the hope and expectation of meeting him again, and enjoying his sweet companionship in a higher realm where partings are unknown. Resolved, That as a church and congregation, ourselves bereaved and grieving, we extend our kindliest sympa- thies to his wife and little children, to his aged mother, to his sisters and brothers, all of them ours in Christ Jesus ; and that this sad experience shall bind us closer to one another, strengthening the bands of our love and mak- ing us more thoughtful and helpful in bearing one anoth- er 's burdens and in fulfilling the law of Christ. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be entered on the records of the church, affectionately placed in the hands of his wife and mother, and printed in the papers of this city and the "Earnest Presbyterian" of Denver. "Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth ; yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors ; and their works do follow them. ' ' CITIZENS' EESOLUTIONS. The citizens and business men met in mass at Blake's Hall this afternoon to express their sympathy and sor- row in the sudden death of their fellow citizen. The meeting was called to order by Mayor Campbell, and T. M. Harding acted as secretary. The object of the meeting was briefly stated by the chairman, and E. T. Ail- ing, E. H. Sawyer and Dr. Craven were appointed as a Mack Genealogy. 647 committee to draft resolutions. Remarks were made by Rev. E. C. Dodge, F. A. Raynolds, E. T. Ailing, E. B. Ail- ing, Dr. Craven, J. J. Phelps, P. A. Rice and Colonel Sawyer. The committee reported the following resolu- tions which were unanimously adopted : Whereas, It has pleased God to remove from this life our fellow citizen, Henry Mack ; therefore, be it Resolved, That we hereby bow to the will of Him who doeth all things well. Resolved, That we hereby record our sense of the ex- alted worth of our friend, not only as a public spirited citizen and an honorable business man, but especially as one whose social and religious life was above reproach. Resolved, That we bear willing testimony to the purity and sincerity of his character, to his modest and kindly bearing, to his broad and uniform charity, and his hearty co-operation in every enterprise helpful to our common interests. Resolved, That we cannot express too strongly the sense of our personal loss in this unlooked for bereave- ment. Resolved, That we extend to the bereft family and kindred near and far our sincerest sympathy. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be for- warded to the venerable mother and the stricken wife of our friend. A motion offered by Mr. Ailing, that the city officials attend in a body, and the band be requested to be present and render such assistance as may be agreeable to the immediate friends of the deceased, was also carried unanimously.

Mrs. Mack's father, Dr. Whaley, was a descendant of Edward Whaley, the Eegicide, who in turn was a direct descendant of Wyamarus Whaley, a standard bearer of William the Conqueror, at the battle of Hastings. (For notes of Whaley family see Appendix.) Mrs. Mack re- ceived her education in the Ithaca Academy and Ingham University at Le Eoy, N. Y., where she graduated , 1869, taking the degree of B. A.

After the life sketch of Mr. Mack, which follows, will be found a sketch of the two sons living. John Warren Mack came from sturdy New England stock. His boyhood education was principally obtained in Bath, N. Y., where he prepared for college and entered Cornell University in his twentieth year and graduated in 1872, taking the degree of Bachelor of Science. Al- though his natural bent was for journalism, the early years of his life after leaving the university were devoted to education. He had a taste for the acquirement of lan- guages and became a proficient French, German and Italian scholar. These languages and the higher mathe- matics he taught at the Ithaca Academy and subse- quently at the Delaware Literary Institute. He was also for some time principal of the North Cohocton public school. The entry of Mr. Mack into the vocation of his choice was as editor of the Bayonne, N. J., Herald. This was about 1880. In 1882 he removed to Hornellsville, N. Y., to accept the post of business manager of the Times, and Mack Genealogy. 657 with a short incursion into life insurance as the local agent of the New York Life Insurance Co. he continued with that paper till 1889, being the last two years its ed- itor. While he was occupying that position it became his duty to attack the political rascalities then rife at Horn- ellsville, and his fearless course so exasperated the gang in power that his editorial room was entered one evening when he was at work and he was brutally beaten and in- jured severely. The indignation of the community over the assault and its approval of his conduct as a conscien- tious journalist more than compensated him for his suf- fering in its behalf. He never failed to put into practice his conception of what was right, no matter what might be the possible consequences that threatened. His public career and his reputation as a careful and intelligent statis- tician led to his call to the service of the Government in the taking of the census of 1890. He was appointed to the division of insurance statistics, acting as chief under the direction of Special Agent Charles A. Jenney. In 1894, when the census work was completed, Mr. Mack ac- cepted an offer to join the staff of The "Weekly Under- writer, and became its outside business representative. In that capacity he was known to and highly respected by underwriters throughout the United States. He was a director and the secretary of the corporation by which the paper is published. Mr. Mack was from early manhood a member of the Presbyterian communion. On becoming a resident of the City of New York in 1894 he connected himself with the Harlem Presbyterian Church, and at the time of his death was its senior elder. His strong business sense was of great value in the management of its secular affairs. In this beautiful church edifice the funeral services were held and the remains were taken to Ithaca, N. Y., for in- terment. At a meeting of insurance journalists held in New York the following resolutions were adopted : Resolved, That in the death of John W. Mack we recog- 658 Mack Genealogy. nize that insurance journalism has lost an able, earnest and conscientious worker, and the community in which he lived a faithful and useful citizen. Resolved, That we hereby express our appreciation of his upright life, of his blameless personal character and of the many substantial and lovable qualities which en- deared him to all who knew him. Gentle in his disposi- tion, devoted to his friends and to his family, and moved by a high sense of duty in all his daily walk, his death comes to us, both individually and collectively, as a severe and heartfelt bereavement. Resolved, That we hereby extend our sympathy to the stricken family, and that a copy of these resolutions, suit- ably engrossed, be forwarded to them by the secretary of this meeting. (Signed) GEO. W. HATCH, P. J. HANWAY, E. D. WESTON, Committee. A business associate said: "Mr. Mack's methods were quiet, but what he aimed to do he followed with persis- tence and generally accomplished. We believe that no man in his vocation was more liked and respected by those whom he had to meet in business. No man could ever justly say that Mr. Mack had done him wrong; very many could say that his career was a benefaction. To those who were nearer his service was a blessing. Mr. Mack's life was that of an earnest, manly Christian gen- tleman. Numerous journals contained tributes expres- sive of the sense of loss to the press and of the noble character of the man. Here are a few extracts : " As we lay him to rest, let it not be only with the brim- ming eye and breaking heart, but also with joy at the re- membrance of an upright and spotless life, over which the King of Terrors can never wholly triumph." "He was a Christian gentleman— one of those men Mack Genealogy. 659 whose presence commanded respect and consideration because those whom he met recognized instinctively a nature of fine instincts and high ideals coupled with good taste and common sense." "Few men will be more genuinely missed from the ranks of insurance journalism than John "Warren Mack, who died of typhoid fever after an illness of seven weeks. A man of wide information, a skilled linguist, a gentle- mam always, an enthusiast in his profession, of which he was a modest and yet conspicuous ornament, his loss will be deeply deplored, especially by his colleagues, who were greatly attached to him for his solid and endearing qualities— a loyal endeavorer for righteousness." 3585.

When Elijah was on the mount of God a great wind rent the mountain, but the Lord was not in the wind, nor in the earthquake that followed, nor in the fire ; but He was in Mack Genealogy. 669 the still small voice. As it was then, so often it is now ; the Lord is not always in the man who sweeps on like a tornado, though he may seem to do wonders, but He is always in the man of a quiet and rest- ful spirit, who does his work unto Him. This comparison is suggested by the life of the late William Sumner, Esq., who recently died at his home in Hartford. He was one of the most quiet of men, never making any noise or blus- ter or calling attention to himself, but moved on his course as gently as the current of a deep river, but also with a like hidden power. He was born in Tolland in this State in 1826, of Puritan ancestry. His father was a deacon in the Baptist Church and his mother one of the sweetest of women. A lady of extensive acquaintance said that the two sweetest persons she had ever known were his mother and her son, the subject of this sketch. To speak of a man as very sweet may seem to some to savor of weakness, but this is not true. The strongest man that ever lived, who had per- fect strength, was just as remarkable for his loveliness and sweetness. Unfortunately these two elements are of- ten separated, or the one trait is so strong as to over- shadow the other, but in the most perfect character they are blended, and rarely were they ever so united as in Wil- liam Sumner. Though admitted to the bar in his native county early in life, and there filling offices of trust, when thirty years of age he removed to Cincinnati and engaged in business so successfully as rapidly to acquire a large property, but he acquired it by his faithfulness and integrity, and never by doing anything which savored of forgetfulness of the rights of others. There he connected himself with the Vine Street Congregational Church, in which he was from the first a' great pillar of strength. So deeply was he there honored and loved, that though it is some years since he left, the Sunday after he died, the pew he occupied was trimmed with smilax, and there has been a memorial service for him. 670 Mack Genealogy. He did not use his money for himself, but for forty years gave a fourth of his income to Christian and benevo- lent objects ; but he did this so quietly that no one outside of his family knew it till after his death, when incidentally the fact became known to the writer. The range of his benevolence was very great, but he especially delighted to help forward Christian education. For thirty years he was a trustee of Oberlin College and was an annual donor to Berea College, Kentucky. (From "The Springfield Eepublican.") William Sumner, formerly a resident of this city, and well known here, died at his home, 11 Myrtle Street, in Hartford yesterday morning at 11 o 'clock from a para- lytic shock. He had a severe shock some time ago, but he recovered from it completely, and he was in good health until the time of his second shock, which came only a few hours before his death. He was born in Tolland and was 71 years old. He was the son of Dea. William A. Sum- ner, and the brother of Elliott B. Sumner, who was elected to the Legislature in 1871, as Senator from the Windham district, and of Edwin Gr. Sumner, who was a member of the House from Mansfield in 1875 and 1883. William Sumner studied and practiced law in Tolland in company with Zalmon Storrs, who was later president of the- soci- ety for savings in Hartford for many years. In 1854 he was elected Judge of Probate, and the following year Clerk of the Superior Court in Tolland County. In 1856 he went to Cincinnati, where he controlled for sev- eral years the business interests there of the Wheeler & Wilson Sewing Machine Company. He married Miss Juliette C. Bishop of Tolland in 1857. About ten years ago he returned to the East and became chief owner of the Underwood Manufacturing Belting Company at Tol- land, whose plant burned down a year ago. He was elected to the House of Delegates as member from Tol- land in 1895. Mack Genealogy. 671 (From "The Hartford Times.'') To the Editor of The Times : The notice in your columns of the late William Sumner, whose funeral took place on Monday, was so brief as not . to bring into prominence some of the traits of one of the noblest sons of Connecticut; and I beg the privilege of ad- ding a few words in regard to some of his prominent characteristics. A native of Tolland, his business career was in Cincinnati where he amassed a large estate, and only a year since came to this city to spend his remaining days. He was one of those men of sound judgment, who made money, and did not simply acquire it. He had the wis- dom and skill to make two blades of grass grow where one grew before, and so the money he acquired was not made at the expense of any one else. His business was conducted on the principle that in every bargain both parties should be benefited. He could no more drive what is often styled a sharp bargain than he could deceive. In all his transactions he gave good values, and good values came to him in return. His benevolence always kept pace with his growing in- come, and he gave as wisely and liberally. The church, colleges, all manner of benevolent objects, and the needy received continually from him, but what he gave was in such a quiet way that very few persons knew of the extent of his liberality. An incident in connection with repair- ing the Congregational Church in Tolland, his native town, will illustrate his manner of giving. Eighteen hundred dollars had been contributed for repairing the church, and Mr. Sumner was asked to see that it was done wisely. He not only expended it with great wisdom and taste, but added twenty-five hundred dollars to the sum, so that now the church is a model of beauty. For thirty years he was a trustee of Oberlin College, and always gave wise and helpful counsel. When asked recently why he resigned his office as trustee, he replied that for [43] 672 Mack Genealogy. two consecutive years lie had been unable to attend the annual meeting of the Board, and he could not consent to hold an office of trust without fulfilling its duties. He was a constant friend and helper of Berea College, Ky., aiding it substantially in its early days of struggle, and continuing to give for its support as long as he lived. (From "The Times-Star," Cincinnati.) Word was received in this city late Thursday afternoon of the death earlier in the day of William Sumner, in Hartford, Conn. The deceased was seventy years of age and his death was the result of a stroke of paralysis re- ceived about a year ago. Mr. Sumner was formerly a resident of this city and the news of his death will be received with regret by the many older business men with whom he associated while here. He was a native of Tol- land, Conn., but came here early in life, where he engaged in a number of business enterprises, foremost of which was that of the Wheeler & Wilson Sewing Machine Company, of which he and John E. Wright were the general agents for Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky and Tennessee. He was one of the organizers of the Star Publishing Company and a stockholder for a number of years in the Cincinnati Times-Star Company, was associated in the banking firm of Hughes, Wright & Co., the Union National Bank and at present owns stock in the Ohio Valley National Bank. He was also for a time interested in the Strobridge Litho- graphing Company. He built the house on McMillan Street now the property of Gr. Y. Boots, where he resided until about fifteen years ago, when he gave up his resi- dence here and removed to Tolland, Conn. He, with B. B. Stewart, a brother-in-law, built the large Staten Island Flour Mills on Staten Island, N. Y., which has since been sold to the Millers ' Trust. 2841. Augustus Sumner (2423. 2235. 2170. 6. 1.) b.

Mr. and Mrs. William E. Hungerford of this place cele- brated the fiftieth anniversary of their marriage on June Mack Genealogy. 675 28. Members of families of tHe same name from Chester, Moodus, Lyme and other places joined in the festivities. The Sumner family from various places throughout New England was also well represented, and the other invited guests were numerous. Many gifts were brought to the bride and groom of half a century ago. The Hungerford homestead was prettily decorated for the occasion. An old-fashioned New Eng- land dinner, reinforced by many modern dishes, was served. Dr. E. G. Sumner of Mansfield read an original poem. The Connecticut Valley Advertiser of July 11, 1902, contained an account of the golden wedding of Mr. and Mrs. William E. Hungerford of Hadlyme : "William E. Hungerford, the recipient of congratula- tory honors on the festive occasion of June 28th, has borne unsullied the "Hungerford crest" and proved a noble representative of a noble name ; one whose honesty and integrity has never been questioned, a man of mind and power as well, whose wisdom has been sought in council for many years by those who constitute what is known as the community of "Haddam Town." Fifty years ago William E. Hungerford brought a fair young bride to the ancestral home, Ellen Sumner, of Tol- land. . The guests were bidden "from near and from far" to celebrate the "golden day," when even nature smiled welcome, with never a cloud to obscure. The hours for the wedding reception were from three to sis, inclusive. The Hungerford home was wreathed and garlanded in festive array ; refreshments were not lacking in variety or abundance, and gold in bright and shining coins, golden bric-a-brac and gold tinted china, with familiar faces framed in "Florentine gold," were offered as gifts to the "bride and groom" of the fifties. The two sons of Mr. and Mrs. Hungerford, W. S. and Clarence W., well known iron manufacturers of Jersey 676 Mack Genealogy. City, were on hand, Mrs. Clarence Hungerford acting as assistant hostess on the occasion. Two grandchildren were present, Hala and Clarence Ives Hungerford. Deacon E. C. Hungerford and wife of Chester, Richard E. Hungerford, Joseph W. and wife of Hadlyme and Henry T. Fuller of Moodus were some of the guests on the Hungerford side. The Sumners were included in Dr. E. G. Sumner and wife, Mansfield ; Mrs. Virgil Brooks, Dayton, Ohio ; W. A. Agard and wife, Tolland ; Miss Katherine Agard, Marion, Alabama; Augustus Sumner and daughter, Ivoryton; Mrs. Louise Hutchinson, Hartford; and Mrs. A. C. G-il- more, daughter of Mrs. A. P. Lull of Chambersburg, Penn. Mrs. Lull is the sister of Mrs. Hungerford and the eldest survivor of the Sumners. Not only did the guests eat, drink and toast to the health of the bride, but Dr. E. Gr. Sunmer offered a sur- prise and pleasure in an original poem befitting the occa- sion, which in part is submitted. A happy occasion long to be remembered. An honored life, in peace and prosperity, Mr. and Mrs. Hungerford still dwell as honored citizens of Hadlyme. If no more in golden celebration, may many wedding anniversaries be added to those who so happily joined hand and heart some fifty years ago. So as you see, this family tree Is not without its scions, For there are present here today Two sons as strong as lions. William is first, a tall young man, Who greets us here tonight; From his youth up to six feet high His aim has been ' ' do right. ' ' Mack Genealogy. 677 Clarence, too, we 're glad to meet Completing this big pair, He, too, has grown to be six feet, And yet, looks young and fair. Both tall and stately are their wives Which these two sons selected ; Their children, too, have good physiques Of course, 'twould be expected. And more than this, all occupy An enviable position. So that you all may now enjoy A satisfied fruition. If it be true what I have said (I mean what here I'm stating), The verdict then, of course, must be. You all did well in mating. From out our parents ' flock of nine. Eight of whom were married. None with one partner, except you For fifty years have tarried. Myself and wife are only left. Who now have any chances Of wedded life for fifty years— Unknown 'till time advances. One day in June in sixty-five Like this, we had a meeting, Our parents' golden wedding day From us received a greeting. Thirty-seven years since then have passed Again we here assemble. We see these golden wedding days Each other much resemble. 678 Mack Genealogy. But where are they that with us then Met at our Tolland home? Ah ! they are now where we shall be In as many years to come. Eight children then, now only three, And one is far away, No doubt she 's thinking of us now, As we meet here today. It would, I know, be her delight To join this celebration. And might perhaps her pride excite To meet such loved relation. " Oh ! happy day that fixed my choice ' ' No doubt your hearts are singing, As you recall back fifty years. When wedding bells were ringing. Long life, indeed— give God the thanks For this unusual blessing ; Fifty long years of married life Are really worth possessing. Look back for friends that once yon knew. When first in life you started, And you will find that it is true. Near all from you have parted. You've served your fellows long and well; We meet you here with pleasure ; In the Beyond we trust there is Laid up for you a treasure. And as you near the end of life, On day feel night encroaching. May you at life's last setting sun See heavenly mom approaching. : _ Mack Genealogy. 679 And when upon the other shore You meet the Great Eternal One, May you the welcome plaudit hear : "Faithful servants, come, well done." 2844.

"For two and a half years in Lebanon and as long in Lyme (CoUii ) he proved his sincerity and love to Christ by a godly life and a faithful effort to do all he could for the cause. He was well endowed with gifts ; of a noble unselfish spirit; of a profound and simple piety but, too modest and sensitive to bear so rough and hard a world. When he had become debilitated by malaria, the sights and sounds of sin and sorrow around him overtaxed his brain ! reason tottered f rem her throne, and he was borne away to the asylum from which he escaped by death.

The careless and wicked little know how much some of their friends suffer and sacrifice for them.

She was usually called "Dee," was, in her girlhood, a great favorite, and in her mature years one of the best- liked women (to use a phrase) "that ever lived." Wher- ever she found herself placed. Dee Sumner was equal to her part. She was a good scholar, she learned easily, and it used to be said of her, playfully, that "she never was seen studying, yet she always had her lessons." Possessed of a joyous nature, it seemed to be her mis- sion to shed sunshine and cheer around; and she always filled a large place in the minds and hearts of people wherever she went. Good works were natural to her, and if fidelity and good judgment would avail she was equal to their fulfillment. To get Fidelis identified with a cause went a long way toward its success. She was what one might call "a good balance whe^l." Sunny, yet thoughtful, nobody needed a better counselor, or truer friend than she. 690 Mack Genealogy. When in the course of time events took her away from her native town, a void was felt that extended beyond the home fireside. November 16, 1856, Miss Sumner married Henry E. Millard, an active business man of Hartford, Conn. She went to Hartford to reside, and made that city her home until the last year or two of h'er life. There were two children. + 3763.

Not only a standby at home, but she was a neighborhood "good Samaritan." The illness or other trouble of a neighbor always appealed to Anna Sumner, and she was ever ready to respond, making sacrifices, if need be, for their welfare. Many were they who found occasion to bless her for her kind offices. When Anna and her sisters were together, what sweet melody from their united voices oft delighted visitors and nearest neighbors ! They were a "concert" in them- selves. The work of ruthless time has scattered all; but fond memories of the earlier days remain. April 4, 1867, Miss Anna married Lawyer William H. Kinney, a leading advocate of the Madison County Bar. Mr. and Mrs. Kinney resided at Morrisville and Munns- ville until the decease of the former, February 22, 1883. Later, Mrs. Kinney married McKenzie W. Sumner of El- dorado, Kansas. Her departure to her new home in the Mack Genealogy. 691 far West proved a final severance. The numerous friends to whom she had been endeared were called in a comparatively short period to mourn her loss. There was one child by first marriage. 3765. Mary Anna, b. July 12, 1872. Res., Bethlehem, Pa., with her half-brother. Rev. Oliver B. Kinney. Nature has done a good deal for Mary Anna Kinney. She was a bright and happy child, endowed with con- spicuous talent for music, rhetoric and painting. Her early years were spent in Munnsville and at Morrisville, the county seat, the principal field of her father's legal practice. She was educated at Munnsville and at Brewer- ton, N. T., and became a teacher. Bereft of parental blessings at an early age, her happy disposition has gone far toward smoothing life's path. Like her mother, she is appreciated for her ability and kindly traits ; and like her mother she is making a record for doing good. Show Mary Kinney a- home of suffering, there is where she would be; show her a place where mind and heart can find intellectual entertainment of a high order — there her tastes are compensated. If length of years are granted to her, her inheritance can carry her to distin- guished usefulness; and in that direction her ambition calls her. 2898.

The family of the Lieutenant-Governor of Connecticut lived at the time of his birth, January 14, 1841, in the north part of the society of Gilead, in the town of Hebron. He was named after his mother's father, George Gleason, who lived near the Manchester line in Glastonbury. His grandfather on his father's side was Henry Peterson Sumner, a Methodist preacher in Gilead. "When he was about six years of age, his father, John W. Sumner, moved to CoUinsville, where the latter was superintendent in the axe factory established by the Collinses, whose en- terprise had resulted in the building up of a great manu- facturing industry. In 1852 the family moved to Bolton, and has lived there since. George, the son, attended the district school, and when about fourteen years of age was sent to the Bartlett High School, at New London, where he studied for a year and a half, and there met for the first time Thomas M. Waller, who was in the same school, Mack Genealogy. 695 laying foundations for the professional and public life which both he and Mr. Siimner subsequently entered. Before reaching the age of sixteen, Mr. Sumner became a teacher in the district school in Andover, which he successfully conducted, and then went to Williston Sem- inary, at East Hampton, Mass., and fitted for college ; but his purpose of obtaining a university education was de- feated by • impaired health, and with the good mental equipment which he had obtained he returned to the farm in Bolton, working in the summer time and teaching win- ters for about four years. During this period he was Town Clerk for three years, Probate Clerk, and Acting School Visitor. The kindness and favors of the people of Bolton in those years have often been the subject of Mr. Sumner's conversation with his friends, and he fre- quently expresses his pleasure in renewing old asso- ciations there upon his repeated visits to his home. In 1864 he began the study of law with Hon. David M. Cal- houn, the present Judge of the Hartford County Court of Common Pleas, then living in Manchester, and after- wards came to Hartford and entered the law office of Waldo & Hyde, and in 1866 was admitted to the bar. In 1867 he was elected a Representative in the Legislature from Bolton, and in the same year Mr. Waller was for the first time a member of the House. He was chiefly in- strumental that year in securing the passage of the bill for a public act which gives the accused in a criminal trial the right to testify in his own behalf. In the same year Mr. Sumner established his residence in Hartford, and in 1868 was elected to the Board of Aldermen from the Fifth Ward, and served four years. He was City Attorney for one term. Associate Judge of the City Court, and Police Commissioner for three years, and Recorder of the City Court for four years. In these positions he served the public with zeal and fidelity, and there was a manifest ap- preciation of his worth as a public servant when, in the third year of his membership, a Republican Common 696 Mack Qenealogy, ' Council refused to accept his resignation, and increased the salary of his office as an inducement for him to re- main. He was Mayor of Hartford 1879 and 80; Lieutenant- Governor 1883 and 84; State Senator for the First Dis- trict (Hartford) for years 1887 and 88. Mr. Sumner is one of the rising men in his party and in the State. He has in every place of public trust so justified the confidence of the people that his place in public affairs is the honorable reward of faithful ser- vice. Besides the integrity of his character, he is a man of most kindly disposition, of generous impulses, a true and manly friend, broad in his sympathies, and fair in his judgment. While consistently a party man, yet he is so broad in his views, and so tolerant of the convic- tions of those who entertain opposing opinions, that party lines furnish no measure of the esteem in which he is popularly held.

The Doctor had been in enfeebled condition for some time, and at the last became prostrated from general debility, which obliged him to take to his bed 17 days ere he reached the end of his mortality. Funeral services, conducted in accordance with his request, by Earl Milli- kan Post, G. A. R., of Windham, of which he was a mem- ber, were held at the home on Tuesday afternoon, Eev. W. H. Scott, pastor of the Disciple Church, officiating, and music being furnished by the Eavenna Male Quartette. Frederick Cramer Applegate was born in Hubbard, Ohio, February 21st, 1821, son of John and Fanny Apple- gate, pioneers of the Ohio wilderness. Eeared On a farm and early accustomed to industry, self-denial and self- reliance, he laid the foundation for the success that crowned a life of honored remembrance. His elementary and common school education was of an indifferent char- acter, but possessing a mind that rose superior to his limitations, his field of mental activity expanded in accord- ance with his genius and he evolved from nature her- self much of what afterward distinguished him in his attainments. He attended a term or two at Vienna Acad- emy, in which he became an assistant teacher. He sub- sequently studied medicine in Warren and attended lee- 714 Mack Genealogy. tures in the old Cleveland Medical College. He after- wards graduated from Jefferson College, PhiladelpMa. August 26, 1846, he was married to Sally P. Robbins at Windliam, in wliicb little hamlet he settled in 1849 and where with slight exceptions, he resided for a half cen- tury. Two children were born to them, Fannie, now Mrs. F. M. Eumbaugh, of this city, and C. S. Applegate, of Pittsburgh. The Doctor was a strong anti-slavery and Union man, exemplifying his convictions by joining, as a private, the military organization which afterward be- came Co. 1, 171st 0. N. Gr., in which he received appoint- ment as Surgeon, and with which he remained until hon- orably discharged. November 21st, 1898, the wife and mother with whom he had journied in dearest companionship for more than fifty years, was taken from him, and from that sad hour of separation his thoughts turned from earth life to the Home where his faith told him the loving spirit awaited his coming. And the summons was not long delayed. Just four months had elapsed since the day of her de- parture when his form, sealed with the final impress was borne to Maple Grove Cemetery to be laid beside that of her who has welcomed him to a higher abode. Although not a professed Christian, or church member. Dr. Applegate affiliated closely with the Christian, or Dis- ciple Church and lived a life illuminated with the faith and precepts of the Great Teacher, whom he revered as the Saviour of Mankind. His life was truly Christian, in that it was moulded in charity, integrity and love for his fellowmen. The Golden Rule was to him more than a Pulpit Formality. He accepted it as a living command, touching his deepest springs of conscience, to which he yielded loyal obedience. We do not believe Dr. Apple- gate had an enemy in the world, but know that his friends were legion. And his life was worthy of the love and esteem it engendered. We feel that in his death another mind of true greatness and nobility has been taken from us. Mack Genealogy 715 The Doctor was a man of vast reading and information, few keeping pace with him in matters of either special or general information. He took great delight in political and financial economics, and was a constant advocate of the theory of protection, which he defended as well as the ablest apologists in the land. Whatever Dr. Apple- gate was, he was from sincerity, intelligence and convic- tion, the beautiful light of the Christian virtue irradiat- ing it all. Portage County never had a better citizen, a more loyal patriot or truer member of society. No friend was ever more constant, none more quickly touch- ed with sympathy for others. No man believed more in progress and human betterment than he, and his whole life abounded in works of broadening influence. His work is done and well done. There were three children. 3945. F.

He was formerly United States Consul at Crete, and in the insurrection against the Turks he sympathized strongly with the rebels, and was active in forwarding Mack Genealogy. 721 their cause. He married 2d, in 1872, his choice being a Greek lady of brilliant attainments, highly talented as an artist, and of striking beauty, her personal and intellec- tual charms making her a favorite in the best circles of both English and American society. The photographs of her by Mrs. Cameron, the English amateur, have been celebrated. Mr. Stillman was well known and highly es- teemed among the literary circles of London, Boston and Cambridge. He was a friend and ardent disciple of Bus- kin's, and was intimate with Prof. Charles Eliot Norton of Cambridge. Frank D. Millet, the artist, has spoken of him as one of the ablest of living writers on art. He was a frequent contributor to the Atlantic Monthly, writ- ing a number of essays, sketches and literary and art criticisms. He was a minute observer of nature, and his writing in this direction was akin to that of Thoreau and John Burroughs. A paper in the Atlantic on "The Woods of Maine" will be remembered as an excellent ex- ample of his out-door studies. His experiences in Crete were embodied in a series of articles in the Atlantic en- titled "Cretan Days." He was a contributor to other American magazines, his published article having been one in Scribner's, on the Venus of Melos, in which his strong arguments for regarding that famous work not as a Venus, but as a statue of Wingless Victory, were a masterly instance not only of fine artistic instinct and perceptions, but of his scientific cast of mind and method of reasoning. He has spent a great part of his time in the classic lands, and took a deep interest in the investigations along the ruins of ancient Assos, under the auspices of the American Archaeological Society, and he wrote a strong letter to the New York Nation, setting forth the importance of providing means for the continuance of the work. He has been a correspondent of the Nation for many years. He took an active part in the work of the American Archseological Society, and contributed to its first annual report a scholarly paper on the result of 722 Mack Gexealogy. Ms investigations of prehistoric ruins in Italy. He was not only a student of art, but had considerable artistic ability, and made the studies himself of the illustrations in Scribner's from living models, demonstrating the cor- rectness of his theory. He was also a most artistic ama- teur photographer, and James E. Osgood & Co. published a beautiful volume entitled ''Poetic Localities of Cam- bridge," composed of his photographs of historic man- sions, homes of the poets, and their resorts, including fine studies of the famous Waverly oaks. Probably the most enduring of Mr. Stillman"s literary work will be his con- tributions to the* history of art. In 1900 he wrote the "Autobiography of W. J. StiU- man" and it was published in sis parts in the Atlantic Monthly for that year. There were three children. iOOi. John Euskin, b. May 2. 1S62. Beknont, Mass., d. Mar. '27.

The following was contributed by a relative : Few young women artists have won so pleasing a mea- sure of success in the early years of their labors as that accorded to two American girls in London — Miss Eliza Eomana Stillnian and her half-sister, Miss Effie Stilhnan. The latter "s work is chiefly medallions. Miss "Liza'' Stillman is chiefly interested in portrait painting, and above all in the representation of charac- ter. She was brought up in the atmosphere of a studio from childhood. Her earliest memories are closely con- nected with Madox Brown's studio where her mother was working. One of her favorite amusements was to "help" her mother paint her pictures— unseen and tmasked. From her fifteenth year she began to study in earnest, at first in Florence with Van Schoric, an American pupil of Mack Genealogy. Y23 G-erome, later with Watts in London and with Giovanni Costa in Eome. The latter, of all her masters, had the greatest influence over her. During one summer she lived an out door life with Mr. and Mrs. Costa studying landscape painting, though she never found this a con- genial branch of her profession. Her portraits are emi- nently characteristic of their originals. She is too good a psychologist, in fact, to allow her own individuality to interfere with her portrayal of personalities. , At the same time, her work is distinctively her own. Expression appeals t^o her far more than mere beauty of feature or coloring. She is especially fond of painting children, and has been very successful with such portraits. Among her many sitters are Modjeska, the Princess Eoyal of Greece, Mrs. Leslie Stephen, Professor Kay Lancaster, Mr. Moberly Bell, Sir Donald Mackenzie Wallace, the Princess Venosa, Monsignor Sambricelli, Archbishop of Corinth; and William B. Eichmond, the artist. Among American celebrities Miss Stillman has executed portraits of Mr. Eichard Watson Gilder and his family, Miss Fran- ces E. Willard and Mr. Charles Dudley Warner. Miss Stillman 's wanderings in search of the attractive, include long visits to Eome, Athens, Florence, London and New York, and many other places. Such a life as hers among the great art cities of the world sounds ideal, though she herself is not of that opinion. "I think it is a drawback for an artist to travel much," she says, "being continually uprooted disturbs one's ideas. An artist should always have at least some permanent pied a terre. Hearing about things stimulates one's imagination more than actual experiences." In the first years of Miss Stillman 's life as an artist she worked long mornings in her studio, and spent after- noons and evenings at receptions, balls and dinners.

The night was late on Christmas eve, The fire flickered low ; Without the wind was roaring With fitful gust and low. Before the low flame sitting Drowsy with fancy and with play, Methought I heard some singing In the still night far away. Methought I saw a village And a stable long and low. And the bright stars in the cold, dark sky, Before the dawning 's glow.

Methought I saw a gentle face With simple love sublime, Methought I heard a moaning "Where a city's high walls climb. Methought I beared a din of crowds And rending cries of pain, And pageants and stern rituals— Then all was still again. And through the night the peace of truth Seemed clear to look at me, And as it went I thought again Of Him of Galilee. 3153. Annie Maria Mack (2580. 2333. 2206. 2167. 6. 1.) b. Nov. 14, 1854, m.

Oct. 13, 1841, St. Louis, Mo., and is Pastor Emeritus of the First Unitarian Church, Portland, Oregon. Mr. Eliot received his preparatory and collegiate edu- cation at Washington University, from which he grad- uated in its first class in 1862, and from which he also received the degree of Master of Arts in 1865. His studies were interrupted midway of the course by failing eyesight; and in the hope of receiving benefit he under- took, in 1860, a voyage in a sailing vessel around Cape Horn to China. He experienced no improvement from the trip, however, and after a few weeks in California returned home from there, to continue his studies with Mack Genealogy. 727 eyesight so impaired that for months, while in college and Divinity School, he had to have his books read to him. After graduating from college, he was engaged for two years in the ministry-at-large in St. Louis, in charge of the mission house connected with his father's church, doing much work in its large Sunday School, and among the poor. During the same period he spent a part of his time as tutor in Latin and Greek in Washington Univer- sity. In the early part of this period, also, he enlisted in the First Missouri Volunteers, was mustered in, and was in active service for some months, though never called out of the State. Even before entering college he had resolved to enter the Christian ministry, and though, on account of his weakened eyesight, he was discouraged from this pur- pose by all except Dr. Eliot, his father, he adhered to it, and after graduating from college studied more or less under his father's direction. In further pursuance of his purpose he went, in the fall of 1864, to the Harvard Divinity School where he completed the course the next year, having done two years' work in one. \In 1865 was elected associate pastor of his father's church in St. Louis, being ordained Nov. 19, 1865. Nov., 1867, he resigned to accept a call to the church then just organized in Portland, Oregon. Mr. Eliot, with his wife and infant son, left St. Louis in November, 1867, and came to Portland by way of New York and Panama. They arrived at their destina- tion early on Tuesday morning, December 24, after a journey of forty days and forty nights, having rested for a few days with Rev. Mr. Stebbins in San Francisco. Mr. Eliot was at that time quite youthful in appearance, and was known for some years as "the boy preacher." But in the severe labor and bitter opposition that he and his church hkd to encounter during the next few years, he showed that he possessed the full powers of a man. His life, since the day of his arrival, is written on the T28 Mack Genealogy. history of the Portland church, which has constantly prospered and grown under his ministry. To his own character and influence is due very much of the influence and standing that his church has gained in the commu- nity. His work has never been narrowly confined to his particular parish or to his denomination. He has done more or less missionary preaching at various places in the Pacific Northwest, in which his church was for the most of the time during twenty years the solitary pioneer of Liberal Christianity. Besides strictly religious interests, he inherited from his father, and has bequeathed to his church, an earnest devotion to philanthropic and educational work of every kind. He has been the inspirer of several of Portland's most prominent institutions of philanthropy, and an ear- nest worker in behalf of almost all of them. His connec- tion with the Children's Home, the Boys' and Girls' Aid Society of Oregon, and the Oregon Humane Society of which he has been President for ten years, deserves espe- cial mention. He rendered important service in securing for Oregon legislation establishing a State Board of Char- ities and Corrections, the first of its kind on the Pacific Coast. He seemed for many years almost the only person in Oregon enough interested in the reform of its disgrace- ful jails to do any active work for them. He has always been an earnest supporter of the tem- perance movement, and of Woman's Suffrage. He has held the office of Superintendent of Schools in Multnomah Co., for two terms from 1872-75, and did much to bring order out of chaos in the public school system. Personally, he is scholarly in his tastes, and of a poetic temperament. He is uniformly courteous and kind to both friends and strangers, and though of a somewhat modest and retiring disposition, he never hesitates to assert his convictions when there is occasion to do so in any cause of humanity, good morals, or pure govern- ment. During his long residence in Portland he has Mack Genealogy. 729 won the love of all people, and to no minister in the city are the poor, the outcast or the unchurched so likely to go for the offices of a minister, or for comfort or personal counsel, as to him. He has a wide reputation and influ- ence throughout the Pacific Northwest among men of all ranks and classes, the weight of which has more than once been felt in legislative halls, in behalf of philan- thropy and good government. In 1889, Harvard University, recognizing Mr. Eliot's long and valuable work in the Northwest, honored him with the degree of Doctor of Divinity, which was con- ferred (an unusual distinction) in his absence. Dr. Eliot's family life has been singularly blessed. Of eight children, seven are living. The eldest is Rev. Wil- liam G. Eliot, Jr., pastor of the Unitarian Church in Mil- waukee, Wis. Having completed the honorable term of twenty-five years as pastor of one church. Dr. Eliot resigned his pas- torate in January, 1893, desiring, on account of uncertain health, to be free from the heavy obligations it imposed. He has been elected Pastor Emeritus. At the annual meeting of the First Unitarian Society, held on Jany. 10, 1893, Rev. Dr. Eliot's resignation as Pastor of the Society having been offered and accepted, the following resolutions were presented and unani- mously adopted by the Society: Whereas, After a period of 25 years of faithful ser- vice, our loved, esteemed and worthy pastor of the First Unitarian Church of Portland, Oregon, Rev. T. L. Eliot, has tendered his resignation to this Church and Society ; and Whereas, In consequence of his health and strength not permitting him to continue his labors longer, his res- ignation has been accepted as the regular pastor of this Church; and Whereas, This long service has been characterized by self-forgetfulness, self-sacrifice and devotion to duty; by 730 Mack Genealogy. substantial help by word and deed in poverty, sickness and distress, by Ms earnest and intelligent support in aH benevolent, philanthropic, educational and religious work in this city and State, he has builded monuments that will be an inspiration to all in coming time, and in every way worthy of the efforts of the ablest and best ; and Whereas, He has placed himself in the front ranks pf Christian leaders and educators in encouraging all moral reforms and in ably discussing the great questions of the daj^; therefore, be it Resolved, That it is the earnest wish and desire of this Church and Society that whenever health and strength will permit, he will supplement the regular pastor 's work in every way that will give him pleasure ; that he and his estimable wife may live long in our midst, surrounded by their happy family, to witness the growth and develop- ment of the great work they have so nobly advanced in our city and State and the potential influences they have set in motion for the amelioration of this community. Resolved, That a copy of this preamble and resolution be spread upon the records of this Church, and a copy be furnished our retiring and much-loved pastor. Mrs. Eliot shared with her husband the labors and honors of his work as well as the love of the people to whom he ministered. There were eight children. + 4015. William Greenleaf, b.

When young he was considered remarkably bright and intel- ligent, noted for courage, bravery, industry (no duty too arduous), and truthfulness. In 1859, with his brother, Isaac, he went to Nebraska, took up a large tract of land, built a cabin, had a span of horses, guns, stove and cook- ing utensils, located ten miles from white settlers, among the Indians. One day they went five miles to cut cotton wood ; on returning at night saw the prairie on fire and as they drew nearer no cabin was to be seen. The Indians built fires, set the prairie grass on fire, and cabin, clothing and horses all consumed! They walked ten miles to nearest settlers, and it so happened there was a returned Californian stopping there for the night. Being so discouraged, they offered to sell their claim to him, which he purchased, paying to them the gold for it. They then bought a yoke of oxen and a cart, and started for Pike 's Peak ; enduring untold hardships while crossing the plains. Isaac then went to California, and William lived among the Indians, took up Mack Genealogy. 741 tracts of land, located on Platte Elver; also had town lots in Denver, and tried to farm it, but to Ms surprise lie could not raise a Mil of beans, nor a potato (at that time it was not known that it was necessary to irrigate), and he thought he should starve to death— saw perilous times, subsisted on wild game; tried to sell his ranch, but no one would buy— said the land was "good for nothing." He let his land lie, paid his taxes, went to mining in Montana Territory, was successful. Eeturning to Den- ver after ten years ' absence, found it a thriving town, and his real estate very valiiable. He has also been engaged in mining in the San Juan Silver mines, and prospecting for claims in Black Hills. He is a noble looking man— a thorough student, a close observer, a great traveler, and very interesting in conversation. There was one child. 4099a. Leona Edith, b. Feb. 24, 1886. 3216.

Mack Genealogy. 751 His father Capt. John W. Spencer, M. D., a native of Mass. and his mother Permelia a native of Connecticut, removed to then Gilmer County in 1845, ending their days in the county, where the subject of this sketch was born, esteemed and honored by all who knew them. Young Spencer received instructions in the common schools of his native county until at the early age of fifteen the exact- ing cares and responsibilities of a farm life being placed upon him, he was forced to relinquish his studies to fol- low the plow and to the performance of such other duties as the exigencies of such life of toil imposes. With the religious spirit of forbearance and acquiescence in the will of Almighty God, which his Puritan forefathers dis- played to such eminent degree, and which have actuated and guided him in all of the affairs of life, he accepted the trust imposed upon him, carrying its burdens until he attained his majority, when on March 1, 1881, he engaged in farming and handling timber on his own account, con- tinuing in it ever since. During the years 1895-96, he man- aged the mercantile house of T. R. Simmons, and in 1897, added to his farming operations a general store of his own. Mr. Spencer has always had a desire for minis- terial life, the acme of his ambition being to preach the gospel ; to bring the sinner to repentance and the just to the appreciation of the fullness of the realization of Eter- nal Life. He was licensed to preach by the West Vir- ginia A. C. Conference in 1888, ordained in 1892 and elected President of the Conference in 1898. He was elected to the Legislature of 1899, as a Republican over Dr. A. R. Parsons, by a majority of 84 and is a member of the Committee on Forfeited and Unappropriated Lands, Humane Institutions and Public Buildings, and Immigration and Agriculture.

Jany. 26, 1877, Grand Rap- ids, Mich. The cause of Mrs. Munson's death is given in the fol- lowing paragraphs : Mrs. William K. Munson, wife of the well-known fruit grower pf Grand Eapids township, was fatally injured in a peculiar manner yesterday, and died at the U. B. A. Hospital at 3 :30 o 'clock yesterday afternoon. About noon Mrs. Munson discovered that the bees were preparing to swarm on the Munson farm on Knapp Avenue, and she started to call the hands from the field to hive them by ringing the farm bell. The bell hung from a stout framework at one corner of the house about 20 feet from the ground and was rung by means of a rope in the ordin- ary manner. It appears that the bracket had become loos- ened from long usage, and as she jerked the rope the bell slipped from its rack and fell. It is one of the largest sized farm bells, weighing about 150 pounds, and it fell directly on Mrs. Munson's head, she not having the slight- est warning of her impending danger. She was crushed to the ground ilnder the heavy weight, sustaining injuries that resulted fatally about four hours later. The sharp edges of the bell cut a dangerous hole in the right side of her head and also a deep gash in her back. Her face was lacerated and the bones of her nose and face were broken. The right leg was also fractured near the hip. Died at the Hospital. Assistance was soon at hand, and the unfortunate wo- man was tenderly carried into the house and made as comfortable as possible. A messenger was sent for medi- cal assistance at once, and Dr. A. J. Patterson was hastily driven to the house. He saw at a glance that Mrs. Munson was very severely injured, and advised her removal to the hospital as soon as possible. Mr. Munson took immediate steps, and with one of his teams and carriage conveyed Mack Genealogy. 757 his wife to.tlie U. B. A., where she was given every pos- sible care and attention. She failed to rally from the ef- fects of her terrible injuries and the accompanying shock and slowly sank until death finally ensued. Deceased had lived with her husband on their fruit falrm northeast of the city for the past 25 years. She was widely and favorably known throughout Western Michi- gan as the wife of one of the most prominent horticultu- rists and fruit growers in the state. Mr. Munson has been identified with nearly every movement in the interest of farm improvement and fruit growing in Kent County, and for several years was Secretary of the Western Mich- igan Fruit Growers' Association. He first became en- gaged in the nursery business, but later gave the greater share of his attention to the growing of grapes. He has one of the largest and finest vineyards in the state. To the untiring energy and helpfulness of his wife he owed much of his success in business. Deceased was 54 years of age, and a great many friends will be shocked to hear of her sad fate. Besides her husband she leaves of the immediate family one son, J. P. Munson, who lives at home, and one step-daughter, Mrs. Walter Eice, who lives in New York. 3294. Emma Corinth Pomeroy (2635. 2342. 2206. 2167. 6. 1.) b. July 19, 1850, Cortlandville, N. Y., d. June 7, 1888, Sharon, Conn., m. Sept. 18, 1872, Eobt. E. Goodwin, b. Aug. 28, 1848. Ees., Sharon, Conn. Eeared in the midst of kindly Christian influences, she manifested, at a very early age, in unusual measure, the qualities of mind and magic loveliness blended with the other elements which constitute the perfect woman.^ Like her loved Saviour, whose companionship and inspiration she carefully and constantly cultivated, she attracted and secured the purest and best regard of all with whom she 758 Mack Genealogy. came in contact, radiating to all such a benignant Chris- tian influence. Such was her modest and retiring nature that only her most intimate friends were fully aware of her real worth, yet those whose acquaintance with her was slight, agreed in pronouncing her "one of the sweetest and gentlest of her sex. ' ' As the violet among flowers, so she among women was a universal favorite. A portion of her earlier years was spent in teaching, in which capacity she was very successful. While thus occupied she formed the acquaintance which resulted in her marriage to Mr. Gr., at her father's house in Savannah, N. Y., Sept. 18th, 1872. From that to the close of her life, their home was beneath the roof of the parental home of her husband. Here they became and continued to be the companions and comfort of the iniaates of that home. In due time there were born to them two daughters and one son, who survive. May they imbibe and emulate the virtues of their sainted mother, and so develop and carry forward the work so well commenced by her. Thus, though dead, she will live and labor in the lives and labors of her offspring. The disease which closed this earthly career was pro- tracted and exceedingly painful, yet the most meek and perfect submission to her Heavenly Father's will was exercised, with a cheerful and trustful recognition of His love and goodness even in the darkest hour, as expressed in these wonderful words: "Not my will, but thine be done. ' ' From that scene of suffering, which seemed sanc- tified with a Divine presence, even on "the verge of Heaven, ' ' have gone forth saving influences to many who witnessed or were informed of what was transpiring there. To such as Mrs. Gr. death comes as ' ' A key wrought of silver. That opens the palace of rest." Mack Genealogy. 759 Wliy, then, do we wish, to hold or hinder our loved ones to pass "out of the shadow into the sun," through the "gates ajar" into the blissful presence of our loving Lord? While our loss seems overwhelming we are compen- sated by the confident belief that her gain is infinitely greater. Mr. Groodwin was son of Greorge D. Goodwin who died in Sharon, Conn., Jany. 1, 1900, aged 86, and was a mem- ber of one of the oldest and most prominent families of the town. He owned a large estate and had been a lead- ing man, during his active years, in all business and town affairs. He represented the town in the General Assem- bly during four sessions— 1852, 1867, 1872 and 1881. He was a Whig at the time of his first election but afterward affiliated with the Democrats and was elected by that party for the other terms named. Mr. Goodwin was a son of Captain Hezekiah Goodwin, who served in the Revolu- tionary War, and one of his treasured family papers was his father's discharge, signed by General George Wash- ington.

(For further sketch see No. 675.) He was son of Joseph S. and Cynthia E. Warren. The following from "New York Commercial" June 27, 1902: His own colleagues — the men who know him best- will doubtless agree that the most persistent man in Con- gress is Senator Warren of Wyoming. On scores of occasions, during his legislative career, he has fought with dogged energy and tenacity for a measure that he wanted, and has carried it through — sometimes only after years of labor. Here is one instance among many— it illuminates one of the most salient of Warren's personal characteristics : More than twelve years ago he introduced a bill to re- imburse his State for expenses that it had incurred while under a territorial government for protecting the Yellow- stone National Park, and at every session of Congress since that time he has been working to secure the passage of the bill. He finally ' ' won out ' ' a few days ago, for the Mack Genealogy. 767 omnibus-claims bill as signed by the President carried an item of more than $7,000 to reimburse the State of Wyo- ming. Senator Warren in future years may be remembered and revered as "the father of irrigation." He has at least one distinguished friend and supporter in the great policy of reclaiming the arid West by Federal means— and that is Theodore Roosevelt. Warren's faith has always been as strong as his per- sistency. While Senator Carter of Montana was talking the rivers-and-harbors bill to death in the closing hours of the Fifty-sixth Congress Senator Warren prophesied that a large Federal appropriation for irrigation would be made by the National Congress before another rivers- and- harbors measure should even be put upon the statute books. A few days ago the prophecy was fulfilled. The irrigation bill, passed at this session, went through one day before the rivers-and-harbors bill. Like many of the present members of the Senate who represent far-Western States, Francis E. Warren was born in the East— in Massachusetts. He was a poor boy, but was able to get a common-school and academic educa- tion. He never went to college. When he was eighteen years old he enlisted as a private in the Forty-ninth Massachusetts Volunteers and served throughout the war for the preservation of the Union. He became a non- commissioned officer and was afterward a captain in the Massachusetts militia. He is one of the three members of Congress now living who possess medals of honor granted by Congress for gallantry on the field of battle. For two or three years after the Civil War, he had charge of a stock farm in Massachusetts. In 1868 he went to Iowa as foreman in charge of a construction gang on the Burlington and Pacific Railroad, then building. A little later he emigrated to the then frontier town of Cheyenne. That town of tents and ' ' shacks, " as it existed at that time, was the terminus of the Union Pacific Rail- [49] 768 Mack Genealogy. way, and many persons said that it would never be any- thing more— that it was a passing settlement of the plains. But Warren and many others settled there ; and the town has prospered, and Warren and some of the other pio- neers have prospered mightily with it. After reaching Cheyenne he reverted to the live stock business, and he still calls himself a ranchman. He owns cattle, horses and sheep, and is President of the Warren Live Stock Company. His sheep alone number about 100,000. He prospered from the time he reached Cheyenne, and he is now connected with a large variety of interests there be- sides ranching. He is President of the Cheyenne Fuel, Light and Gas Company, and is a large owner of real estate. He has built more than forty dwelling-houses during the last two years. It did not take long for Warren to get into politics. He was a man among men in that frontier town, and his rug- ged, forceful, honest character made itself felt among his fellows. As early as 1873 he was President of the Wyo- ming Senate, was Mayor of Cheyenne, three terms Treas- urer of Wyoming, a delegate to the Republican National Convention in 1888, and again to Philadelphia in 1900. He was appointed Governor of the Territory of Wyoming by President Arthur, was removed by President Cleve- land, and again appointed by President Harrison. Dur- ing the anti-Chinese riots at Rock Springs he showed his iron character by calling on the Federal Government to put down the rioters, although that act was exceedingly unpopular. President Cleveland granted the appeal for Federal assistance. Warren made some enemies, but the law-abiding people of the Terintory sustained him. He was elected Governor after Wyoming's admission to the sisterhood of States. He was a logical candidate for the United States Senate and was elected to that body in 1890, and re-elected in 1895 and 1901. Although not a man of liberal education, as the term is applied to men of university training, Senator Warren Mack Genealogy. 769 is fond of books and has gotten more out of them than many college-bred men. He has one of the best private libraries in Washington. He is fond of fine horses, of which he has a number on his estate near Cheyenne, and apparently the greatest enjoyment he has is when spend- ing a part of each Summer on his ranch and among his old neighbors and friends in Cheyenne. Mr. Warren's wife died last March, and he has felt the bereavement keenly. She was a Massachusetts woman of good attainments, whose life was wrapped up in her hus- band's career and that of her children. There are two children, a son and a daughter. The son is at Harvard. He fitted for college in the Washington High School, and was an officer in the crack company of High School badets. Miss Warren is a graduate of Wellesley and rep- resented her college in the joint debate with Vassar, tak- ing the affirmative on the question of legislation to build up the United States merchant marine. Mrs. Warren was a daughter of Matthew Smith of Mid- dlefield, and was born, reared and married in that place. She went West with her husband, who was born and for- merly lived in Hinsdale, immediately after her marriage in January, 1871, and Cheyenne, the capital city of Wyo- ming, had since been her home, although she spent sev- eral Winters in Washington, D. C, with her husband. At her home in Cheyenne and in Washington she was a lead- ing spirit in religious, charitable and social circles. A member of the Baptist Church herself, she was never- theless a contributor to the charities of all denominations. Her home was always a social center as well before as af- ' ' ter her husband had entered public life, and a guest bid- den to come, or a caller was sure of a cordial welcome, and an entertainment of intellectual value as well as of passing pleasure. Her acquaintance was wide and her admirers and sincere friends were as numerous East as West. Mrs. Warren took a leading place among the active, use- 770 Mack Genealogy. ful and highly esteemed women 'of Cheyenne. She was a loyal member of the Baptist Church and a prominent member of the leadings clubs of the city. She was Pres- ident of the Alpha Society and Regent of the Wyoming Daughters of the American Revolution. Mrs. Warren was not only a good Christian woman and charitable to a high degree, but popular socially, and her home was synonymous with open-hearted hospitality. With the exception of several years spent in Washing- ton with Senator Warren, Mrs. Warren had spend her married life in Cheyenne until two years ago, when ill health made it necessary for her to enter a sanitarium in the East. Her condition was not considered serious at the time, and she did not break down until about one year ago. The immediate cause of her death was ulceration of the stom- ach. From Cheyenne Leader April 2, 1902 : The sympathies of our citizens are with Francis E. Warren and his children in their present bereavement. We all well know and deeply appreciate the good, sweet woman who was not only a loving wife and devoted mother, but likewise a helpful sister in all the walks and I'elations of life. She was identified with and a leader in those societies which help to remove the hardships and asperities of life and all movements to elevate and soften mankind. She always had the time as well as the disposition to relieve distress, and an encouraging word for all. She was the embodiment of charity, both in word and deed. But her last years were sorrowful. She retired from a useful, helpful life to a sick chamber with an ailment that gave little hope of recovery. How much she missed her home and friends we can partly judge by occasional letters to her family and brother. They were always full of affection and of lament at the misfortune that had fallen upon them. It was the privilege of the writer of Mack Genealogy. 771 these lines to see some of them, and they were sad, in- deed. Her thoughtfulness for others continued to the last. And now she is gone. Her sufferings are over. Her sweet soul is wafted above. At the request of a near and dear friend of the late Mrs. Warren this appropriate paragraph and the beautiful lines of Whittier are published : 0, God of all the living, we thank thee for the happy memory of those whom thou hast called out of this trans- itory life into the eternal joy of thy presence. Thine they were upon the earth as we are thine, and thine are they and we in differing experience still. Though our eyes can- not see them and our ears are deaf to their remembered voices, we bless thee that they are never absent from thy loving care. Our hearts have rest, knowing that thy love changes not and that they see thy face with unobstructed vision. Help us so to live that they may welcome us with joy when thou shalt call us to thyself at last. Amen. Alas for him who never sees The stars shine through the cypress trees ! Who, hopeless, lays his dead away, Nor looks to see the breaking day Across the mournful marbles play ! Who hath not learned, in hours of faith, The truth to flesh and sense unknown. That life is ever lord of death. And love can never lose its own ! — Whittier. There were two children. 4332. Helen Frances, b. Aug. 16, 1880, Cheyenne, Wyo- ming. Graduate of Wellesley, 1903.

(From the Chicago Inter Ocean.) Senator Warren of Wyoming, after several weeks' practice riding at Hot Springs, Va., has gone West to prepare for the ride with President Eoosevelt from Lar- amie to Cheyenne on the 30th. Excepting the trip through the Yellowstone Park, this proposed horseback ride over the mountains in Wyoming will be the most unique and probably among the most enjoyable features of the West- ern tour. The President is a good rider and he thor- oughly enjoys riding across country. He rides in the Western or cowboy style, his feet thrust well into the stirrups, and riding with the horse instead of trying to be independent of his mount as to motion. He has let the cowboys have a large part in the arrangements for his entertainment while in Wyoming and they have arranged their plans more in harmony with the Mr. Roosevelt's per- sonal ideas of recreation than with a view to entertaining the President of the United States. The President will leave the train at Laramie, mount his horse, and ride over the mountains to Cheyenne. The Western cowboys had arranged to ride with him and give him a big and old-fashioned escort in this ride, but that plan was not approved, and Senator Warren and one or two others will be the only companions in this all- day ride. It will be a long ride, measured by the stand- ards of pleasure riding in the East, for the distance is nearly 60 miles by railroad and considerable more by the old overland road which the President will follow. This old road was the way the miners and other overland travelers went before the days of the transconti- nental railroads, and it passes over the continental di- vide at an elevation of nearly 10,000 feet. The railroad has found a lower level for getting over the divide, but Mack Genealogy. 773 the President will ride over Sherman hill, which is the highest point in that region. He will start from an eleva- tion of 7,000 feet at Laramie, rise to an elevation of nearly 10,000 feet at the crest of the mountain, and then descend to 6,000 feet at Cheyenne. Senator Warren insists that this will be the most delightful part of the President's tour, because it will give him an all-day ride through some of the tinest scenery in this country, scenery not appre- ciated or viewed from the railroad, and that it will give the President a comprehensive picture of the possibilities of irrigation in the mountain region of Wyoming and also of grazing and ranch life. This ride would tax the strength of any ordinary man from the East, but the President has lived the life of the plains and the mountains, and Senator Warren says that a ride of 100 miles there is only a pleasant scamper for a day's outing. But the big Wyoming Senator has taken the precaution to prepare for this scamper by giving sev- eral weeks to practice and the hardening process, just to get back to old ways of living and get out of the dignified life of the National Capital, where he walks or rides in a cab. He has been successful in his practice, and he now feels much like a ranchman again, for this was his old life and is still when he is at home. He has large horse and cattle ranches in Wyoming, and he has offered to show some of his fellow-Senators from the East the way back to youth if they will spend the Summer on one of his ranches, with outdoor life and stall feed until the special session of Congress begins in November. The President will spend Sunday and part of Monday with Senator War- ren in Cheyenne, and Monday morning will have an oppor- tunity to revive old memories of his cowboy days, watch- ing the cowboys in their sports and giving exhibitions of skill in throwing the lasso, breaking bucking horses and branding cattle. President Eoosevelt's sixty -mile ride on horseback from Laramie to Cheyenne was a notable incident of his 774 Mack Genealogy. Westerntour. No President since General Grant's time has been capable of such a thing, and Grant had finished his long horseback tours before he entered the White House. In fact Roosevelt is probably the first President to make such a journey while holding the Presidential office. This ride was taken May 30, 1903. 3321.
