A T the First Gathering of the Rawson Family, October 8th, A. D., 1872, at Horticultural Hall, Worcester, Mass., the wish was repeatedly expressed by those who took part that a new Family Memorial should be published. This wish was heartily shared by all; although no direct steps were then taken towards its accomplishment. The whole time was occupied in becoming acquainted with each other and in examining the ancient Family Relics which were exhibited in the Hall in abundance. They were presented and carefully arranged by Mr. Reuben Rawson Dodge of Sutton, who has been for more than a quarter of a century collecting them ; and to whom, more than to any other person, the Family are indebted beyond recompense for the persistent energy and industry with which he has labored in their behalf. To him are we under obligation for the First Meeting. A Reunion was held at the same place, October 1st, 1873, when the subject of a New Memorial was again urged, and a Committee chosen to collect material and see to the publication of the Book. The names of that Committee are as follows: R. R. Dodge, L. O. Livingston, George Rawson, E. B. Crane, Mary G. Leland, N. A. Boutelle and O. F. Rawson. A few months later, a majority of the Committee convened at Worcester for the purpose of making a beginning in the work for which they were chosen. The result of that meeting was a vote that the whole matter be placed in the hands of E. B. Crane, the Secretary-elect of the Association, to distribute circulars and blanks, and toviii

receive the same when returned. That part of the work has been quite thoroughly prosecuted. At the Third Family Reunion, held September 16th, A. D., 1874, report was presented of progress thus far made. A copy of this report and a brief account of each Family Gathering, including the address of Luther R. Marsh, Esq., of New York City, may be found in the Appendix. Little more than a year had been spent in gathering Records when letters began to be received, with the inquiry, " When will the Book be ready for distribution? " No arrangement even had then been made with any person to compile the work, and 110 one had volunteered his services. Thinking the time too precious to be lost, the writer made a beginning of the compilation, without the slightest thought of carrying it to completion, but with the idea that whoever should take hold of the work after him might possibly find that no harm had been done.
Now that the work is so nearly accomplished, he must present an apology for continuing that which, in the beginning, he felt incompetent to perform.
He has attempted to record only plain, simple facts, without display of rhetoric (to which he makes no pretensions). If the work has been made plain, so that readers can all trace the genealogies, then he will feel that he has been instrumental in furnishing some little comfort and general knowledge concerning this prolific Family.
The Memorial published in 1849, by Mr. Reuben Rawson Dodge and Sui.livan S. Rawson, through the assistance of Joseph H. Dorr, Esq., of Boston, and Hon. Joseph Raavson of R. I., contained 1462 names, and has been made the groundwork for this book.
The Author desires that full credit should be awarded to all who furnished material for that work ; and would also express his gratitude personally to each and every one who has contributed any matter whatsoever pertaining to this volume, and especially to those who have contributed engravings, they addingPREFACE AND EXPLANATIONS.

materially to the interest of the book. Mr. Dodge has been untiring in his efforts to furnish documents and give aid to this work, and is entitled to special mention.
This Book contains upwards of 5,450 names, descendants of the Secretary, Edward Rawson.
Perfection in a work like this is seldom attained. When records and reports are presented in so many different forms and written by as many different hands, to be compiled by one person, errors are quite likely to occur, however vigilant the compiler may be. Letters and figures are often written so obscurely as to require very careful study in order to arrive at even a probable certainty. Too much care can not be used in preparing the original reports in order that errors may be subsequently avoided. No effort has been made to trace the Rawson Family in England. It has been the object of this work to revise, correct and complete a genealogy of the Family in America. Our correspondence has been quite extensive, and replies have been prompt on the part of its widely-scattered members, for which they have our most hearty thanks; yet quite a number of persons (and probably families) have not responded, and perhaps have not been reached by our Circulars, which may account, in a measure, for some of the omissions and the incompleteness of this book.
When replies to our letters have not been received we have endeavored to get information through other members of the Family. On this account there may be found occasional discrep^ ancy in dates. Some of the records used were received quite a number of years ago. Changes must since have taken place, but as we could not get reports of more recent date it was thought best to use those at hand in order to leave the chain of descent unbroken.
We have placed some reliance upon interested members, soliciting information from them respecting all persons in their particular branch of the Family. We have thus reached some of whom we had no direct knowledge, and are happy to say that our expectations have been more than realized.

PREFACE AND EXPLANATIONS.
The interest has been universal and spontaneous. Some few have sent in quite lengthy biographical sketches. It was not thought best to publish them in full, although we should be very glad to do so, as they contain matter of special interest and usefulness to immediate descendants ; but we have here given them in a condensed form, that expense might be saved, and it is hoped that at the same time there has been no serious loss of the ennobling influences contained therein.
The Author has followed the style of arrangement adopted in the Slafter Memorial, published by Rev. Edmund F. Slafter, A. M., of Boston. Consecutive numbers are placed on the left margin against those who bear the name of Rawson ; also, against descendants who are heads of families, of whatever name. No two names receive the same number, although the same name may appear twice under different numbers—first as child, then as parent.
In order to find the name of a Rawson consult Index No. 1, where all Christian names only are alphabetically arranged. Since the same Christian name often occurs, the actual or conjectural year of birth is prefixed to each name, to assist in determining which person of the common Christian name is meant. The number after each name is the consecutive number. Turn to this number in the body of the book and record will be found of the first appearance of the person as a child, in all cases except that of the first Edward.
Should a bracketed [—] number here be found after the name, it refers to a subsequent record of the same person as parent. When a bracketed number does not appear after the name no further information concerning that person will be found.
In like manner, immediately after the name of a parent, will be found a bracketed number, which refers back to the entry of the same name where the person appears as a child. Therefore, as a rule, the larger numbers refer forward, and the smaller ones backward. Also, after the name of a parent, the pedigree is indicated in parenthesis, (—) with small figures above, showing toPREFACE AND EXPLANATIONS.
xi
what generation the name belonged. Thus, parent's name Grindal3, father's name William7, grandfather's Edmund1, and so on down to Edward1.
In Index No. 2 will be found all names of descendants and persons who have intermarried with the various families mentioned in the book, and who bear other names than that of Rawsox. This index contains only the names of heads of families, and in it the surnames are entered alphabetically. The Christian names follow in regular order, with consecutive numbers appended, referring to each name in the body of the book.
When the name of a descendant or relative of the Rawson Family does not appear in the index, reference may be made to the name of either wife, father or mother. A line of descent may thus be found from which the desired information may be gained.
The Author has not been able to be as thorough and systematic in collecting and arranging genealogical information respecting families of other names connected through the various female lines, as some may desire. But all information received may be found in this volume, and, with but few exceptions, immediately following that of the last person in the line who bore the name of Rawson.
In these cases, also, bracketed numbers are appended, referring back to corresponding numbers under the parent's name. Small exponential figures are also printed over to indicate the generation to which the name belongs.
The usual abbreviations for the names of States are employed; m. stands for married ; b. for born ; d. for died ; s. for settled; r. for reside; U. C. for Union College; W. C., Williams College, and also for Waterville College ; H. C., Harvard College; B. C., Bowdoin College ; B. U., Brown University.
A blank " Family Record " will be found at the end of each book, where the different families can supply deficiencies in their records or continue them in future years. Although the Circulars issued did not call specially for information concerning military service rendered or collegiate course of education pursued, yetxii

we have the pleasure of knowing that the Family has been well represented in each of these named departments, and would have done honor to this Record had the materials been collected with which to form a Roll of Honor as well as a List of College Graduates. So far as information was received, it has been placed under the individual's name in the body of the book.
In the Appendix may be found printed copies of Letters, Deeds, &c., which will be of interest to many of the Family.
To Edmond Grindal Rawson, M. I)., of New York City, Oscar F. Rawson of this City, Newell A. Boutelle of Woon-socket, R. I., and Henry M. Rawson of Providence, R. I., who have given valuable pecuniary aid towards the publication of this work, we return our special thanks.
Also, for many additional and interesting facts concerning some of the subjects of this record, we are indebted to the American Antiquarian Society of this City, who have in store a vast amount of historical and genealogical information, to which we have had free access, through the kindness of S. F. Haven, Esq., Librarian, and the gentlemanly and courteous Assistant-Librarian, Mr. Edmund M. Barton, who always has been ready to assist us personally when he could be of service. We cannot refrain from also expressing our perfect satisfaction with the manner in which our work has been executed at the printing house of Mr. Charles Hamilton, Worcester, Mass. And we beg to express our grateful appreciation of the interest taken by Mr. Benjamin J. Dodge (the foreman), to have this register correctly printed, and in every way, so far as possible, made satisfactory to the Members of the Family.
Worcester, Mass., August 25th, 1875.
E. B. Crane.NAME.
It will perhaps be both pleasing knd instructive, to some at least, of the Rawson descendants, to learn something concerning the name, its origin and meaning. For this purpose, the best authorities on the subject have been consulted, and the works of a number of different persons on surnames have been examined. That of "Mark Antony Lower's Essays on English Surnames" has been accepted as the one most likely to prove reliable. Family surnames were not commonly in use previous to the tenth century, and cannot be traced further back than the latter part of that century. They were first used in France, and particularly in Normandy, at the North of France. When William the Conqueror mounted the English throne, in 1066, Normandy was incorporated with, and formed an important part of, the territory of the English monarchy. The entry of those Norman adventurers into England was, no doubt, the inaguration of the custom of having surnames. Many of these names were taken from the castle, village, or country seat in which the Normans lived on the other side of the channel. Some of these were used by prefixing the French preposition de. Another large class was formed by adding Sox to the christian name of the father. Office, occupation, or condition in life gave rise to names such as Knight, Shepard, Smith, Page. Others still were taken from color or complexion, as White, Black, Brown; some were derived from animals: Drake, Bird, Wolf, &c.. To these might be added many more in illustration, but perhaps enough have been presented to give the reader an idea of the manner in which family names were first produced. Previous then to the Norman conquest, persons had commonly but one name, a christian name given on the ninth or tenth day after birth. It was often expressive of some quality in high estimation, of valor, skill, wisdom, or gracefulness. Other names were taken from the names of the different ancient gocls, &c. Among these we find Hildebrand (war brand), Konrad (bold in council), Adolph (Noble Wolf), Arnold (Yaliant Eagle), Osborn (God Bear), Wolfhild (Wolf heroine); Ralph, in England often pronounced Baf, with broad a, meaning famous wolf or hero, and this ''Lower" tells us is the name from which ours comes. It was very often written Relf and pronounced like Rauf, with a very broad a. By adding the plural termination es, as was done to King, Kinges; Servant, Servantes, the namexiv
NAME.
became Ralphes or Relphes, and it was pronounced Raufcs or Rawes. Then Son was appended in the place of es, and the f dropped, making Rawson. meaning son of Rauf or Rawes. Thus from Ralph came Rawes, Rawson, Rawlins, Rawlinson, and Rason.
Ralph de Mortimer was the First Constable of England, receiving his commission from William the Conqueror. The name Ralph must have been a popular one among the learned men as far back as the tenth century. Ralph, a Norwegian Bishop, was Abbat of Abingdon in England in 1050 and 1052; Ralph, Bishop of Orkney, 1077; Ralph d Escures, Bishop of Rochester 1108, and Archbishop of Canterbury 1114 to 1122; Ralph, Archdeacon of Colchester, and English Judge in 1189; died in 1100. Ralph, Archdeacon of Hereford, a Judge from 1163 to 1197. Ralph, Bishop of Dmvn, 1202 to 1213. Ralph of Bristol, Bishop of Kil-dare, 1233; d. 1258. Ralph of Kilmessan, Bishop of Down, 1329; died 1353. Ralph of Maidstone, Bishop of Hereford, 1234. Ralph of Shrewsbury, Bishop of Bath, 1329, d. 1363. Ralph of de Wareham, Bishop of Chichester, 1218; d. 1222.
A pedigree of the Rawson Family is mentioned in the New England Historical and Genealogical Register, covering eight generations, and contained in " William Pavers' Consolidated Visitations of Yorkshire." Burk, in his Complete Work on Heraldry, mentions it, saying that it begins with Richard Rawson of Frystone, who flourished in the time of Richard II., about 1380, and was concluded in 1585. From this family arose the Rawsons of Bradford, ancestors of William of Boiling, who married heiress of Brooke of Brookeroyd, and was grandfather to Benjamin Rawson of Bradford and Darley, who purchased the estate of Nidd, County of York.
These pedigrees referred to, were collected by Heralds under Royal Commissions, who were instructed to visit the several counties of England, and collect the same from all families of any distinction, and to enter them in a book containing official proceedings. These register books contained the pedigrees and arms collected in cotirse of the visitations, with the signatures of the heads of the families. Since the beginning of the seventeenth century these visitations have been discontinued. These facts go to show that it is a very ancient, as well as quite prominent, patronymic.
Richard Rawson, an English Canonist and Jurist, d. 1543. About 1580, John Blake, Jr., son of John Blake of Little Baddow, County of Essex, England, married Anna, the heir of Rawson. She had seven children. William Blake, a brother to this John, came to America in 1630 and settled at Dorchester, Mass.
There are other explanations of the origin of the name of Rawson, but after careful study of them all, this is believed to be the true one. Other explanations derive the name from Rous, Rouse, Roussune, (French), and. Row, (Scotch), pronounced Raw in English.' Thence comes Rawes, then Rawson, also Ros and Ross, or Raven, then Raven-son and Rawson in England. Edward, meaning (truth keeper) a faithful man, and Edmund (truth mouth) a speaker of the truth, are very often found among the names of the family, and are also antique.COAT OF ARMSNAME.

The Rawson Family Coat of Arms gives another proof that the name is ancient and bears distinction. The origin of this emblem is accounted for by the following legend :—
" Far back in the blood-stained history of England there was a strong fortress or castle in the possession of the enemy, which it was desirable to capture. Some attempts had been made but without success. There was a bold, energetic, patriotic young Officer in the King's Army by the name of Rawson, who volunteered to organize an expedition for its redaction, if allowed a certain number of men. The proposition was accepted, the expedition successful, and to reward the young Officer for his daring skill and bravery, he was presented with this Coat of Arms."
Whether the story be true or not the writer is not prepared to affirm; but it is a fact that such a family blazon does exist, and has been on record at the Herald's College, or College of Arms, for several hundred years. It is composed of an escutcheon, representing an old knightly shield, the lower half (sable) black, the upper half (azure) blue; in centre of the shield a castle, with four towers in gold; crest (placed over), a raven's head, black; bearing on the neck drops of gold, one and two; erased, on a wreath; in the beak a ring of gold. The motto underneath, " Laus Virtutis Actio" may be freely rendered, "The deed of bravery is its own praise." The sentiment of the device seems to be Strength, Strategy, Watchfulness. The Raven obtained possession by force and holds the precious reward in his beak.
The cut of the Family Coat of Arms given here was made from the original obtained in England by a Son of the Rev. Thos. Read Rawson, of Albany, N. Y.GENEALOGY OF THE RAWSON FAMILY.
1. Edward Rawson1, so far as has been ascertained, was the progenitor of all bearing the name of Rawson in the United States, with these two exceptions : The first, James Rawson, A. M., M.D., a Methodist Episcopal clergyman, who came to this country from England in 1832, and is supposed to have d. in Va., Aug. 26, 1854. His ancestors fled from France to England in consequence of the revocation of the " Edict of Nantes," Oct. 18, 1685, by Louis XIV.
The second came to the United States about 1840, and settled at Utica, N. Y. His grand parents still reside in England, and have no knowledge of being immediately connected with our honored Secretary, who was born in Gillinghain, Dorsetshire, England, April 16, 1615. He was married in England to Rachel Perne, daughter of Thomas Perne, and grand-daughter of that John Hooker, whose wife was a Grindal, sister of Edmund Grindal, " the most worthily renowned Archbishop of Canterbury" * in the reign of Queen Elizabeth.
The family relation which existed between that excellent man, Edmund Grindal, and the earliest ancestor of the Rawsons, in England, of whom much is known, may render a few words respecting him not uninteresting. His high place in the Church affords the best evidence of his eminence as a divine. He was the successor of Bonner in the bishopric of London. Not willing to proceed to extremities against the Puritans, he involved himself in dissensions with Parker, the then Primate of England. His friend and patron Cecil, foreseeing that trouble might ensue, gladly seized the occasion of withdrawing him from the controversy, by transferring him to the bishopric of York, in 1570. "For his own repose," it is said, " Grindal ought never to have quitted this-sphere of unmolested usefulness." But Parker died, and in 1575 the primacy was offered to Grindal, and he accepted it. The prejudices of Queen Elizabeth against the Puritans and

their meetings, called " Prophesyings," held at that time by the clergy, are well known. She issued orders for their suppression, and expressed to Grindal her displeasure at the number of preachers licensed in his Province ; " urging that it was good for the world to have few preachers ; that three or four might suffice for a county, and that the reading of the homilies to the people was enough." Against this the venerable prelate remonstrated in decided terms, and, in conclusion, exhorted her to remember that she was a mortal creature, and accountable to God for the exercise of her power. An order of the star-chamber followed, and the Archbishop was sequestered from the exercise of his jurisdiction, and confined to his house for six months. On points of professional duty, he was courageous and inflexible. He contributed largely to Fox's k'Acts and Monuments," and was revered for the primitive virtues of probity, sincerity and godly zeal. It was these characteristics which caused him to be celebrated in Spenser's " Shepherd's Calendar," in which he is designated by the name of A1 grind. Four or five years after his suspension, the Queen's anger abated, in a measure, and she removed the sequestration, but did not restore him to favor. Old and blind, he was on the point of resigning when he died, in 1583, aged 63. Ilollingshed says, " He was so studious that his book was his bride, and his study his bride-chamber, in which he spent his eyesight, his strength and his health."
John Hooker, grandfather of Rachel Perne, or, as her Christian name was written in her clay, Iiatiel, was uncle to the celebrated and able divine, Rev. Thomas Hooker, who came to Boston in 1633, was for a time settled in Cambridge, and removed thence to Hartford in Connecticut, where he was settled in the ministry.
Rev. John Wilson, first minister in Boston, was uncle to Edward Rawson. Cotton Mather, in his biography of Wilson, speaks of him as " having for his mother a niece of Doct. Edmund Grindal, the most worthy and renowned . Archbishop of Canterbury," and he refers to Rawson in connection with Wilson, in the same work, as follows: " But from a like humility it was, that a good kinsman of his, who deserveth to live in the same story, as he now lives in the same heaven with him, namely, Mr. Edward Rawson, the honored Secretary of the Massachusetts Colony," <fcc.
As some have entertained a doubt in regard to this relationship, it may here be stated that Mr. John Ward Dean, of the New England Historic Genealogical Society, has kindly furnished the copy of a communication from Col. Joseph L. Chester of London, England, in which he says, " If the relationship between Edward Rawson, the Secretary of the Colony of Massachusetts Bay, and the Rev. John Wilson, the first preacher of Boston, be still only conjectural, it may interest their descendants to know that I am able to prove the fact. Edmuad Rawson's mother was Margaret, the sister of Rev. John Wilson." We also print, in the Appendix, a copy of the Rev. John Wilson's Will, in whichFIRST GENERATION.

he calls him a relative, and makes him one of the overseers of that instrument.
The most remote ancestor of Edward Rawson who has been traced, and for whom he was named, was Sir Edward Rawson, who lived in the reign of one of the Henrys. He is said to have been a man of military skill and experience.
Edward Rawson came to New England in the year 1636 or 1687, and became an inhabitant of the town of Newbury, in the Colony of Massachusetts Bay. There, many other English people settled, who were from Hants and Wilts (counties adjoining Dorset), and perhaps knew by reputation, if not personally, our progenitor or his father's family in Old England, their residence being located near the bounds of those two counties, in Gillingham, county of Dorset. This may account for the confidence reposed in him so soon after his arrival. He was a grantee of that town ; the second Town Clerk (Public Notary and Register for the towne of Newbury), chosen April 19, 1638 (and was annually re-elected until 1647). To this office was added, the same year, that of a Selectman, and also that of Commissioner and Attorney for the trial of small causes in Newbury. He was besides member of each of the various committees to lay out the commons, and also one of the Deputies to represent the town at the May and September sessions of the General Court. Thus speedily, in a few months, was Edward Rawson elevated to civil office. Undoubtedly he must have possessed more than ordinary talent for business, as well as a large share of public spirit, to be so soon honored by his fellow-townsmen, and to have taken his seat, at the age of three-and-twenty, among the legislators of the Colony. His various public acts and employments while he resided there are more fully narrated in Coffin's History of Newbury. A few items taken from the New England Historical and Genealogical Register, published in 1849, may be of interest to those who have not already seen them, and which, no doubt, are perfectly authentic.
In 1639, he again represented the town of Newbury in the General Court, at its three sessions, and at the May session the Colony records inform us that he " is granted 500 acres at Pecoit, so as he go on with the busiuess of powder if the salt Peter come." In 1642, he again appears as a Deputy in the General Court ; also in May, 1644, and at the October session, " In answer to a petition prli"d by Mr. Rawson, for land in refl'erence to his journey to the eastward, this Court grants him 200 acres upon Cochituate River, above Dover bounds, not graunted to any others, p'™1"1 that Capt. Pendleton be joynecl wth Peter Coffin in laying out the same." In 1645, he was returned to the General Court, which had a very long session, extending from May 14th until Saturday, July 5th. During the last week of this session, the deputies passed the following vote, " Edward Rawson is chosen & appointed Clark to the house of Depu,s for one whole yeere, to Enter all votes passed in both houses, & those also y' passe only by them into the book of Records." In 1646, he retained his seat as Deputy and his office as Clerk of the House, and at the November session it was ordered by the Deputies, " yl Edward Rawson shall have twenty inarkes allowed him for his paines, out of ye next levy, as Seer' to ye House of Deputs4

for two yeerespast." This vote of the Deputies was passed by " both houses," and the Court, subsequently to its passage, entered the following declaration in their Records " : "Mr. Edward Rawson having been employed to eigne and transcribe all bills that passe in a book, yet being sensible of the great expenses and charge which this Court is at; and difficulty to raise small matters; not doubting of his being sensible with us, therefore; to meet, in that respect, what was allowed him by us for one year's service, viz.: twenty marks, shall be all that shall be allowed him, and paid him out of the next levy for his services done; and he shall do to the end of this Court; conceiving it to be but just in some measure to recompense labours of this kind; which we would not be backward in."
In 1647 and 1648 he continued to represent Newbury in the General Court. In the latter year, he received two grants of land. The first at the May session, of 1,500 acres, jointly with Rev. John Wilson of Boston, " next adjoining to the 3,000 acres granted to Mr. John Winthrop at Paquatuck, near the Narragan-set country ; but in case Mr. John Winthrop perform not the condition with respect to the time limited, that then the 1,500 acres of the said Mr. Wilson and Mr. Edward Rawson shall be of the said 3,000 acres granted to the said Mr. Winthrop." The second grant is the subject of the following vote of the Court, passed at the October session :
" In answer to the petition of Mr. Edward Rawson, for satisfaction in regard of charges he hath been at & damages which he hath sus-tayned about pvisions to make gunpowder: It is ordred that in Regard of his great forwnrdnes & Readines to advance so hopeful a designe as the makinge of saltpeter within this Jurisdiction, who for that end & purpose hath disbursed certayne moneyes, to his great Loss & Damage, praentoi us Large in his petition, Delivered into the present Court, have therefore, in consideration of the pri»Ui;s & answer to his sd petition, given and grnunted unto him & his heires for ever, 500 acres of land, at Pequot, to be Layd out by the appoyntment of this Court, as also five pounds, to be payed him out of the treasury." Edward Raw-son was also one of two persons (Mr. Joseph Hills of Maiden being the other), who were that same year desired by the Court " to compose the amendments of the book of laws passed and make them as one; one copy to remain in the hands of the committee for the speedy committing them to the press, ancl the other to remain in the hands of the Secretary, sealed up, till the next Court." In 1649, lie represented Newbury, and was re-elected Clerk of the House of Deputies; and at the next annual election, on the 22cl of May, 1650, Edward Rawson was raised to the office which Increase Nowell had filled without interruption since the year 1636; and he opened the first page of his new volume of Colonial Records with the following: "At a General Court Eleccons, held at Boston 22lh of May, 1650, Edward Rawson, gent., was chosen Secretary."
Johnson, in his " Wonder Working Providence," published in London, 1654, uses this language respecting him : "Mr. Edward Rawson, a young man, yet employed in Commonwealth affairs a long time, being well beloved by the inhabitants of Newbury, having had a large hand in her foundation, but of late, he being of a ripe capacity, a good yeoman (penman) and eloquent inditer, hath been chosen Secretary of the Colony."FIRST GENERATION.

In 1649, by the records of Newbury, "at a meeting generall of the freemen, March 6th," Edward Rawson was appointed, with others, " to bee a committee about Plum Island." From 1650 he was annually re-elected secretary until the usurpation of the government by Sir Edmund Andross, 1686, when Randolph succeeded him. Elliot remarks of him, that " he was of respectable character, as we may judge from his having this office so long, while there was an annual election."'
In 1849, Mr. Joshua Pilsbury lived on the farm which was owned and occupied by Edward Rawson, in Newbury, and which was purchased of the latter by William Pilsbury, the ancestor of the former. It is said he also owned and cultivated another farm in Newbury, near what is called Turkey Hill, so named from its having been the favorite resort of wild turkeys in the early settlement of the town. The meadow, near the hill, still bears the name of "Rawson Meadow." After his removal to Boston, Ms residence was on " Rawson's Lane," and here he is supposed to have died. This lane bore his name until near 1800, when it .was changed to Bromfield Street. Here he owned some acres of land, which bordered on the Common or Training-field, out of which he sold a number of house lots.
He and his wife were members of what was called the First Church, over which the Rev. John Wilson was pastor. After the death of Mr. Wilson, a new pastor was to be chosen, and the Synod of 1662 was divided on the question, " Who are subjects of Baptism ? " and this division called forth still another in the First Church, out of which grew the Old South Society of Boston ; so popularly known. The record says he was one of twenty-eight disaffected persons of the First Church of Boston, who dissolved connection with that society and formed the 3d or Old South Church, in May, 1669. Thomas Thatcher, their first pastor, was installed February 16th, 1670.
The corporation in England for the propagation of the gospel among the Indians in New England chose Edward Rawson steward or agent " for the receiving and disposing of such goods and commodities " as should be sent to the "United Colonies," and the Commissioners of the Colonies confirmed the choice at a meeting held at New Haven in September, 1651, and appointed him to that trust. It seems that a charge of negligence in the performance of his duties in that capacity, was preferred against him. " The praying Indians complained to Ratcliff and Randolph that they could not get the clothes which were allowed them." The charge is believed to have been groundless, as Andross, who removed him from office, and Randolph who succeeded him, had sufficient motives to induce them to excite prejudice against him among the Indians. Soon after this, Andross was seized by the Colonists, and sent to England in irons.
The warrant which was sent to Boston by King Charles II. for the apprehension of the Regicides, Goff, Whalley and Dixwell, was countersigned by Secretary Rawson. His correspondence6
RAWSON FAMILY MEMORIAL.
with Gov. Leete, of Connecticut, shows that zealous efforts were made to apprehend them, but, as is well known, they were unsuccessful. He is believed to be the author of a book published in 1691, entitled, "The Revolution in New England Justified;" also another, entitled, " The General Laws and Liberties concerning the Inhabitants of the Ms. <fcc., fol., 1660." Although no extracts from either of these books are at hand, yet, in the Appendix may be found some matters of interest in the way of letters, orders, &c., which originated with him.
It is to be regretted that one, whose character was otherwise so irreproachable as that of the Secretary, should have been led to participate in the persecution of the Quakers. But there is too much proof on record to leave room for doubt, that he was influenced by the fanaticism of the day. This is the only blemish upon his fair fame, and we may hope that his conduct during this excitement—chargeable, perhaps, in a great measure, to his peculiar position—may be counterbalanced by the virtuous deeds of an apparently otherwise irreproachable life.
His salary as Secretary was only £20 per annum at first, but was subsequently increased to £60. To the office of Secretary was soon added, by the General Court, that of Recorder of the County of Suffolk, which he held many years. Several grants of land—one May 6, 1657, of 200 acres, in addition to those previously mentioned—and other allowances were made to him at different times for " extraordinary services." His family Bible, now in possession of R. R. Dodge, of East Sutton, Mass., contains the following certificate, in the hand-writing of his son William: " This may certify whome it may concerne, that Edward Rawson (Secretary) was borne in old England in the ye are of our Lord 1615, April 16th, and departed this life Aug. 27th day, in the year of our Lord 1693, in New England, aged 78 years." This Bible is doubtless more than 200 years old, and is now in the hands of the 6th generation, having descended from Edward to William, his sou ; from William to his son David ; from David to his son David, Jr.; from David, Jr. to his daughter Anna; from Anna t o her son, John Rawsou Young ; and from the latter it has been obtained by Mr. Dodge.
Edmund, Hooker, Grindal, Perne, Wilson and Edward have been much adopted and continue to be prevalent Christian names in the Rawson family.
The oldest child of Edward Rawson, a daughter, was left by him in England, where she was born. To whom she was married is unknown, but he is said to have been an "opulent gentleman." One of his daughters born in this country married the Rev. Samuel Torrey of Weymouth, and another, Thomas Broughton of Boston. His sons, Edward, David and John, went to England and settled. Edward graduated at Harvard College, A. D. 1653. Dr. Calamy, in his history of ejected ministers, says that Edward Rawson was presented to a living in Horsmanden, in Kent, in 1655, and adds that " he was a New England man, a violentFIRST GENERATION.

But two of the five sons of the Secretary settled in this country, William and Grindal, and through these only our record is continued. Edward Rawson and Rachael (Perne) his wife had the following children :

4. William Raw-son5 [2], (Edward1), thirds son of Edward, was educated to a mercantile life, and became a prominent merchant and an importer of foreign goods. Up to the time of his marriage, in 1673, he resided with his father in Rawson's Lane, now Brorafield Street, Boston, where he kept a dry goods store. At the age of 22 years he was married to Anne Glover, only daughter of Mr. Nathaniel and Mary (Smith) Glover of Dorchester, Mass., as the following certificate, copied from the ancient Bible, will show:—
" This may certify all whomsoever it may concerne, that on ye 11th day of July, 1673, on a certificate I received, that William Rawson and Anne Glover, y° daughter of y° late Mr. Nathaniel Glover, had been duly and legally published, I joined them in marriage at the house and in the presence of Mr. Habackuk Glover, his wife, Mr. Edward Rawson, father of ye sd William Rawson, and other friends. As witness my hand, this 31st of July, 1673.	Edward Tyng, Ass't."
It seems they were faithful to the great and first command given to man—to be fruitful and multiply—for in the space of twenty-five years they had twenty children. Only five sons of them, however, living to grow up and have families of their own. He purchased a house of Mr. John Glover of Boston (an uncle of his wife), and must have resided in Boston some years.
In 1689, he sold his estate back to Mr. Glover, of whom he purchased, and removed with his family to Dorchester, where he resided upon a portion of " Newbury Farm," inherited by his wife. He afterwards purchased of the heirs of his great uncle, the Rev. John Wilson, a tract of land situated in Braintree, " being a portion of the land granted to this most worthy and distinguished Divine by the General Court of the Colony," which he made into a homestead, and which is now known as the "Ancient Rawson Farm." It is situated.near Neponset village, adjoining the homestead of the Hon. Josiah Quincy. It has been passed down from father to son, unto the fifth generation. From William to his son David, who left it to his son Jonathan in 1760, then to Jonathan, Jr., and his sister Mary, in 1782, between whom it was divided. In 1819, Jonathan, Jr., left his portion to hisREBECCA RAWSON.

The other portion, owned by Mary and her husband, Mr. Lemuel Billings, passed into the hands of their son, John Billings, who left it to his son, Lemuel, who now owns the whole estate, having recently purchased of Clarissa Rawson her interest in the same. His house is on the same spot where the house of William Rawson once stood. Here, upon this spot, sacred to their memory, William and Anne lived nearly forty years ; here they died. He, Sept. 20, 1726, in his 75th year. She, about 1730, aged 74 years.

25. Rebecca, [9, page 7] the ninth child of our progenitor, Edward Rawson, and his sixth daughter, is the heroine of as romantic a story as can be found upon the pages of New England history. She was born May 23, 1656. Having been fondly nurtured and carefully educated, she was pronounced by her contemporaries one of the most beautiful, polite and accomplished young ladies in Boston. She is represented as being rather tall, genteel in person and graceful in manner, "with a pleasant wit." Having enjoyed the benefit of good society, she was greatly admired by the young men of family and distinction in the Province. Of a generous, loving disposition, often lifting her hand to relieve those in want or distress. A young man of quite respectable appearance and pleasing address made her acquaintance under the assumed name of Sir Thomas Hale, Jr., and represented that he was a nephew of Lord Chief Justice Hale of England, whence he recently came. As he seemed to be well acquainted with Sir Thomas Hale's family, and conducted himself as one becoming his professed rank, Rebecca and her family were inclined to place
210

confidence in him, and thus he won the love and respect of this most estimable young woman.
She was descended from one of the first families of Boston, and thought herself good enough to make the young lord a wife. Perhaps she was much elated with the idea of becoming a lady of destinction, residing across the water, and of being known and recognized as Lady Hale among her kinsfolk stU! living in England. They were accordingly married, July 1, 1679, by a "minister of the gospel, in the presence of near forty witnesses."
Being handsomely furnished, they embarked for England, where, in due time, they safely arrived. Anxious to set foot on land after such a long and tedious confinement on board ship, they went immediately on shore en deshabille, leaving their trunks on board vessel; passing the first night at an inn, and the next at the house of one of her relatives. Early next morning he rose, took the keys, telling her he would go down to the vessel and have the trunks sent up in time for her to dress before dinner. The trunks came, and she waited patiently for him to come with the keys until two o'clock in the afternoon. "When, upon breaking open the trunks, to her inexpressible surprise, she found herself completely stripped of everything. He had taken all articles of value out of the trunks, refilling them with worthless trash and combustible matter.
Thereupon, her kinsman ordered his carriage, and went with her to the place where they rested the previous night. She inquired for Sir Thomas Hale, Jr., but was told he had not been there for some days. She. said she was sure he was there the night before. They said Thomas JRumsey had been there with a young lady, but was gone to his wife in Canterbury ; and she never saw him afterwards. What a pang of anguish struck to the heart of this young wife as she at a glance took in her situation. Although among friends, her high hopes and expectations could not be realized ; her cup of joy was thus suddenly dashed to earth. The man in whom she trusted had deceived her and her family, and acted the part of a villain. She also may have felt remorse at the disgrace she had brought upon her family in choosing him, and that it was a righteous judgment upon her for the pride and vanity she had entertained in thinking to become the wife of a nobleman. During a residence of thirteen years in England, following her abandonment, she learned many curious arts, such as painting on glass, &c., and by her ingenuity and industry procured a genteel subsistence for herself and child. Her pride did not allow her to be dependent upon her friends for support.
Finally, after almost numberless urgent solicitations and entreaties from her father and other fiiends in New England, to return home, she decided to do so, and took passage with one of her uncles in a vessel belonging to him, bound for Boston by the way of Port Royal in Jamaica. She left behind her child in the care of a sister who had no children and desired to keep it.SECOND GENERATION.

They arrived safely at Port Royal, but after a few days' delay, when about to set sail thence for Boston, the ship was swallowed up, with its passengers and crew, on the morning of the great earthquake (June 9, 1692), which is said to have destroyed all the shipping in the harbor as well as a portion of the town itself. Her uncle, who happened to be on shore at the time engaged in the settlement of his accounts, was the only person saved out of the entire ship's company to divulge the sad news of the fate of this most accomplished and talented young woman.
John G. Whittier published a book in 1849, entitled " Leaves from Margaret Smith's Journal, in the Province of Massachusetts Bay," in which Rebecca and her father till prominent parts.
To show how adroitly Rumsey played his part in this eventful story, and how successful he was, not only in the Secretary's family but with others, in pecuniary matters, we print the following fact, which has come to notice: He gained the confidence of John Hull, treasurer and mint-master of the Colony, who advanced him £250, as he says, "in silver every shilling," on bills drawn on Sarah, Viscountess Croyden. Hull found her to be a myth, and Sir Thomas a slippery fellow. A copy of the sworn testimony of Theodore Atkinson and Mary his wife, inhabitants of Boston in New England, taken from the New England Historic and Genealogical Antiquarian, also saith :—
That about the third month in the year 1678, Thomas Rumsey came to me and tendered his service to me for one year to work vvUl mee; and he told me he was a Kentishman and that his father lived near Canterbury, and that his father was a yeoman and had an estate about four hundred a year; and also that his father died when he was but young and that his father's estate did fall to him at his mother-in-law's decease; and, also, he pretended that he came over to New England upon the account of religion; and, further, he hired himself wth mee for a year, for to attend my business and to keep my booke of accounts and for gathering in of my debts; but when he had been about a month with mee he pretended he was one that had been highly bred, but he would not say further what he was; but about Ave months after he came to mee, then he told mee his father was a Knight and Baronet, and that his mother-in-law was a Lady. So he lived and carryed himself, pretending he was highly bred, yl I, the said Atkinson, did not set him on work because he promised mee he would satisfy mee for what charges and expenses I was out about him ; but a little time after he came to mee he began to discover himself so as his religion did seem to wear away, and before the year was expired he changed his name and said his name was Hailes, and pfessed he had been a great traveller in ye Straights for about two-aud-twenty months, and that his mother was called the Lady Hailes and paid him his money by Bills of exchange from time to time; tliat she was a lady that had three hundred p'an of her own that she brought w"1 her, and that his father had about eight hundred a year and a vast estate which he durst not nor would mention lest he should be laughed at and not be believed, and that all his father's estate after his mother's decease was his. Those, and such like unheard of stories as those, in which there is not the least shadow of truth (as the Deponents are enformed), and as the deponents now perceive he made use off as a delusion to put a cheat on Mr. Edward Rawson of Boston afore said, to accomplish his abominable villainy and deceive him of his daughter, Mrs. Rebecca Rawson, who he was married unto by a minister of the Gospel on the lirst day of12

July, in the year of or Lord one thousand six hundred and seventy-nine, in the presence of near forty witnesses.
26. Grindal Rawson2 [3] (Edward1), graduated at H. C., 1678. His wife, writing to Dr. Cotton Mather, after the death of her husband, says, " after he had taken his first degree, he was invited by his brother-in-law, the Rev. Mr. Samuel Torrey, to come to his house and study divinity there, which he did, with such proficiency that he was advised to enter upon preaching. He preached his first sermon at Medfield, with great acceptation, and after two months' occasional performances at other places, he received an invitation to Mendon," in the county of Worcester, Mass. This was Oct. 4, 1680. He continued to preach there until April 7, 1684, when he was permanently settled. He married Susanna Wilson, daughter of the Rev. John Wilson of Medfield, and sister of Dr. John Wilson of Braintree, and granddaughter of the Rev. John Wilson, first minister of Boston. They were distant relatives, " second or third cousins."
Cotton Mather, who was a classmate and friend of Grindal Rawson, in his preface to his sermon which he preached at the funeral of the latter, quotes the language used by President Urian Oakes, at the Commencement of 1678, when he conferred the degrees on the class of that year. It appears that " he took notice of three," John Cotton, Cotton Mather, and Grindal Raw-son ; and of the latter as follows :—
"Tertius grande quiddam sonans, GrindaUus Rawsonus est; clar-lssimo quoque Genere natus; nam Pater ejus Honorandus illustrem in R. P. locum tenet; Pientissimus et dgfrndoSdruTos JOHANNES WIL-SONLTS Apostolicus Plane vir Proavunculus, Reverendissimusque EDMUNDUS GRINDALLUS, Archi-episcopus olim Cantuarensis, sanctissimus vir, tantumque non in Arclii-Episcopatu Puritanus, Aba-vunculus, fuerunt. Detque Deus ut eruditione, sanctitate, Moribus optimis, et Wilsonum et GRINDALLUM exprimat."
It will be seen that President Oakes, by the use of the word proavunculus, makes John Wilson great-uncle of Edward Raw: son. This must be erroneous, as Wilson was but twenty-seven years older than Edward Rawson, and the several manuscript memorials of the Rawsons name Wilson as uncle. The Latin quoted may be rendered thus :—
"The third, somewhat high-sounding, is Grindal Rawson; sprung likewise from a most illustrious stock; for his Hon. father holds a high place in the State; the very pious and orthodox John Wilson, a truly apostolic man, was his great-grandmother's brother, and the Right Reverend Edmund Grindal, sometime Archbishop of Canterbury, a most saintly man, and in the Archbishopric little less than a Puritan, his great-great-grandmother's brother. And may God grant that; in learning, holiness and excellence of character, he may resemble both Wilson and Grindal."SECOND GENERATION.
13
Cotton Mather, in his sermon referred to, says of Grindal Rawson:—
" We generally esteemed him a truly pious man, and a very prudent one, and a person of temper, and every way qualified for a friend that might be delighted in. We honored him for his industrious oversight of the Flock in the wilderness which had been committed unto him, and the variety of successful pains which he took for the good of those to whom God had therefore exceedingly endeared him. We honored him for his intellectual abilities, which procured frequent applications to him, and brought him sometimes upon our most conspicuous theatres; and we usually took it for grauted that things would be fairly done where he had an hand in the doing of them. We honored him for his doing the work of an Evangelist among our Indians, of whose language he was a master that had scarce an equal, and for whose welfare his projections and performances were such as render our loss herein hardly to be repaired. Such sewices are Pyramids." And Dr. Metcalf, in his forthcoming History of Mendon, remarks that " he was an excellent scholar and an eminent divine. His reputation as a theologian was of such a character that the General Court sometimes referred grave and serious questions of ecclesiastical polity to him for decision." It is said, " he was con-plimented as being the General Court's oracle."
The Rev. Grindal Rawson and the Rev. Samuel Danforth, pastor of the church in Taunton, were instructed by the Commissioners for the Propagation of the Gospel, in 1 698, to visit the Indians in the American Plantations in New England and parts adjacent. The account given by them of their visit is quite interesting, and published in the Mass. Historical Collections, 1st series, vol. 10.
The following order was passed by the General Court, July 31, 1692: " Ordered, that the Rev. John Hale, Rev. Grindal Raw-son, Mr. John Wise and Mr. John Emerson, Ministers of God's word, be desired to accompany the General and Forces in the expedition against Canada, to carry on the worshipping of God in that expedition." Whether they, or either of them, accompanied the expedition under Sir William Phips in 1690 is unknown.
Several interesting anecdotes are recorded of the Rev. Grindal Rawson, in connection with Cotton Mather, but the limits of this memorial will not permit of their insertion.
Grindal Rawson was the author of a work entitled " Confession of Faith," written in the Indian and English tongues. Two, at least, of his sermons were published; one, an Artillery Election sermon, " preached to and at the request of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company, in 1703; " the other, an Election sermon, " preached before his Excellency the Governor, the Hon. Council and Representatives of the Province of Massachusetts Bay, in New England, on May 25, 1709." This latter sermon was, in its tone, bold, manly and eloquent, and " published by desire of the House of Representatives." A more extended notice of Grindal Rawson may be found in Cotton Mathers " Mantissa," in his preface to his sermon before mentioned. He died " on the Lord's day, about sunset, Feb. 6, 1715, a. 56."14

He was a man of genius and extensive historical attainments. Judge Rawson says, " he was a learned historian." Doct. Leland of Fall River, a relative who knew him well, also says in a letter respecting him :—
That in stature he was, I think, full six feet, slender built, though with considerable breadth of shoulders. His countenance was open,FOURTH GENERATION.
33
his nose aquiline, and his forehead projecting and high. His perceptive faculties must have been acute, from the very configuration of his frontal region. His step was elastic, and all his motions rapid and easy. I have rarely ever known a man gifted with higher powers of conversation. This made him the delight of every circle. His mind was rich in reading, and his own reflections were oftentimes astonishingly brilliant. His memory was a vast storehouse of facts, always at his command, and I have heard him for hours delight a small circle with sketches of early Colonial or Indian history. In his composition there was a vein of good-humored irony, which never missed his mark when let off. The peculiar bias of his mind was antiquarian, and nothing delighted him more than the company of the clergy. With them he was sure to plunge into old Biblical history, with the whole of which he was perfectly familiar. His word was as good as his own or any other man's bond in Worcester County. Altogether he was a remarkable man, and as emphatically a Genius as any person I ever knew.
In the latter years of his life, he became strongly attached to the Quakers ; wore their dress, and worshipped with them. As a mark of his censure of the persecution of the Quakers, and of his regard for them as a sect, he named a son after Marmaduke Stephenson of Salem, who was tried and imprisoned for heresy, and for whose release a warrant, signed by Edward Rawson, was issued, dated Sept. 12, 1659. His wife d. Nov. 14, 1814. Then-children were :—

Pointed Sermons.—More than one hundred years ago, there graduated at Harvard University a man by the name of Rawson, who subsequently settled in the ministry at Yarmouth, on Cape Cod. He used to preach very pointed sermons. Having heard that some of his parishioners were in the habit of making him the subject of their mirth at a grog-shop, he, one Sabbath, preached a discourse from the text, " And I36

was the song of the drunkard." His remarks were of a very moving character, so much so that many of his hearers rose and left the house in the .midst of the sermon. A short time afterwards, the preacher delivered a discourse still more pointed than the first, from the text, "And they being convicted out of their own consciences, went out one by one." On this occasion, no one ventured to retirefrom the assembly, but the guilty ones resigned themselves, with as good a grace as possible, to the lash of their pastor.

He studied Divinity, and was "approbated to preach the Gospel" by the Mendon Association, Aug. 11, 1756. He officiated occasionally for several years, but was never ordained. He early devoted himself to public affairs, and took an active part in the struggle for our national independence. He was an earnest, uncompromising and vigorous co-worker with the earliest patriots of the Revolution. He gave his best efforts to hasten it on and direct its course. It is said that he devoted three hundred days annually, for several years during the struggle, to the public service, without compensation. He was one of the Commissioners chosen by the people to wait on the Mandamus Councillors and demand the surrender of their commissions.
While residing in Mendon, he was a Magistrate, a member of the Committee of Safety and of the Legislature. He was Judge of the Court of Common Pleas for twenty-five years (from 1776 to 1801), and Judge of Probate for Worcester County eighteen years (from 1782 to 1800).
He was a member of the Convention which met Sept. 1, 1779, to form a Constitution for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and was one of the committee of twenty-six appointed to draft that instrument. He was also some time a member of the Governor's Council. He was chosen a Senator for Worcester County on the first election after the adoption of the Constitution, in 1780, and was returned for the same office in 1781 and 1782. He resided some time in Ward (now Auburn), afterward in Leicester, removing to Brookfield in 1802.
" The offices which Judge Dorr was called to fill," says the Hon. Emory Washburn, in his History of Leicester, " and the general respect in which he was held, furnish the strongest evidence of his character and abilities as a citizen, and as a man of intelligence, energy and integrity."
Mr. Dorr married, 24th Dec., 1767, Catharine, daughter of the Rev. Nathan Buckram. Mr. Buckram was born in Maiden, grad.44

these children to rely upon her own resources. How she struggled to maintain them while helpless and dependent—how she worked at the wheel and the loom, the instruments of gain in those days—how she toiled night and day with her hands, and how she planned and managed for their welfare, can only faintly be realized by the generation which has followed her.
Mrs. Brown was a woman of more than ordinary character. Her physical strength and activity, as well as her seeing and hearing, were almost perfect until very near the close of life. Her mind also partook of the strength and vigor of her physical organization. She was fond of reading and of having others read to her. She had a great desire to converse on Bible truths and subjects of a moral and religious nature ; and some of her partial friends gave her the credit of presenting her ideas with great discrimination, precision and ingenuity. She had a good memory, and could relate with fluency all the incidents, legends and stories which she had heard or read.
Mrs. Brown did not belong to any religious sect. Her Christianity had no shade of sectarian character, and still she had an " unfaltering faith " that she should constitute one among the host which "no man can number." She had a decided religious turn of mind, and the principles of justice, righteousness, mercy and grace were the constant themes of her thought and conversation. Her admonitions to her children and grand-children were frequent, earnest and sincere to seek the path of truth, of justice and goodness.

For so long a period as 66 years he has worked industriously and unremittingly at the bench—a portion of the time as partner in the formerly well-known and highly esteemed firm of S. & J. Rawson; and after the death of Samuel went in company with a younger brother. It used to be suld of the Rawsons that they did their work too well, that they laid out too mueh labor and spent too much time upon it, to admit of their ever petting-rich. Many of the oldest and best citizens of Providence will bear us out in the assertion, that no cabinet or furniture work ever .gave them greater satisfaction, or better stood the test of wear, weather and time, or was more nicely and beautifully executed, than that of S.

Numerous enduring and indisputable evidences are still to be found, in the mansions of old residents of our City and State, of the remarkable excellence and substantial quality of their productions. The pride they took in perfecting, to the last degree, whatever piece of work they had in hand, was something alike admirable and worthy of remembrance; and the reliance which could always be placed on anything that came from the Rawsons hundreds of Rhode Island families ean testify to.

Extracts from an eulogy pronounced by Hon. Tristam Burgess, occasioned by the death of Hon. James Burrill:—
The following eloquent and pathetic production was written and delivered at the request of the gentlemen of the Bar of this town [Providence], in consequence of the demise of the late and lamented Hon. James Burrill, who at the time of his decease was a Senator of the United States :—
" The Hon. James Burrill was, as you all know, a native of the town of Providence. He was born on the 25th day of April, A. D. 1772. His mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Rawson Burrill, was a lady of fair and cultivated76
RAWSON FAMILY MEMORIAL.
mind. He was entered in the Freshman Class of the then Providence College, now Brown University, Sept. A. D. 1784, at the age of twelve years. Dr. James Manning, one of the first scholars and teachers and orators of the age, then presided over that institution. He was admitted to the degree of Bachelor of Arts, at the Commencement in September, A. D. 1788, and immediately commenced the study of law, at the age of sixteen, in the office of the Hon. Theodore Foster, then an extensive practitioner at the bar in all the courts of this State. * * * * He was admitted an Attorney and Counsellor at Law in all the courts of the State, at the September term of the Supreme Judicial Court, A. D., 1791, at the age of nineteen years, and commenced and continued the practice of the law with great success ami unremitting industry, unless when interrupted by enfeebled and declining health. In October, 1797, he was appointed Attorney General in place of Hon. It. Green, who, having been elected U. S. senator at that session, resigned that office. At the age of twenty-five years he received this trust, and held it through all the political phases of the State till May, A. D. 1813, almost sixteen years, when, his health being greatly impaired by the toil of professional labor, he resigned that office and the practice of the law together. In June following, he was returned a member of the General Assembly for the town of Providence. In May, 1814, he was chosen Speaker of the House of Representatives. He was elected Chief Justice of the Supreme Judicial Court of this State at the May session, 1816. He held the office till the following February, when he was elected to the Senate of the United States. He attended four sessions of Congress. On the 25th of December, A. D. 1820, in the 49th year of his life, after a few days illness, of a pulmonary complaint, he expired, in the full possession of his understanding, nothing doubting the goodness of God and the blessedness of immortality.
''His profession was that of an advocate. His professional course was indeed prosperous, and therefore highly honorable to himself, Jor it was the honor of no purchased patronage. Like the great Roman Advocate, he achieved his own success, by his own merit, and was truly the great master-builder of that necessary and almost invisible influence which he held in the tribunals of this State. He stood there on an eminence of his own raising, alone and fearless in the great labors of advocacy.
" When Mr. Burrill was clected to the high trust of Chief Justice, with all its weight of responsibilities and complicated employments, the difficulties vanished before him. He was indeed so much master of all a great judge should do, that he seemed to have filled no other office through life. His last public office was that of senator in Congress. This appointment gave him no new abilities. It placed him on a theatre where men might discover those which he had a long time possessed. In the short time of three years, he arrived to the first rauk of esteem and honor in the Senate ol" his country. He reached that point, not by the pliant acts of a courtier, nor by the blustering, shuffling chicanery of intriguing politicians. No! it was by his candor, his patriotism, his wisdom in council, his powers in debate, the diligence and fidelity wherewithal he kept the trust reposed in him by his country. The high-minded men with whom he controverted great questions of national interest, beheld with delight the noble bearing of their adversary, and cheered him with their confidence, and cherished hiin with their esteem and friendship. What else could have placed him on the eminence where he stood? He won his way thither, hand-in-hand in controversy with men of strong arms and stronger feelings, and on great questions, too, stirring more blood than has been moved by any debate in the years of peace. * * * * Among the questions, the Seminole war and the restriction of slavery in our country stand most conspicuous. * * * * The great question of the restriction of slavery was the last and brightest of his fields; and here, indeed, ' he won goldenFIFTH GENERATION.
77
opinions from all sorts of men.' * * * * But he lived to see the bright vision of his future country clouded. Slavery, with all its claims, was carried across the Mississippi. * * * * Let not the friends of freedom, however, be disheartened and give ground. Burrill lived and died in the glorious contest. There has not been a more illustrious one since the days of our Revolution."

1060—10.	Roxa, h. June 30, 1788; m. Dea. Peter Rockwood of Mil-
ford. The name of Mrs. Roxa Rawson Rockwood deserves more than a passing mention. Her life, though quiet and unobtrusive, was controlled by one motive; that of doing good to every one around her. In early life she was a teacher, and very many of the generation who called her such, have held responsible stations in society, and still testify that their youth owed much to her moulding hand. It was at this period that the idea of forming Sabbath Schools was being tried in this country. She determiued to make a beginning among the scholars of her school. So she invited them to come to her father's house every Sunday evening to receive instruction from the Bible. And they gathered around her, such a loving company of children, until general interest was attracted, and the increasing throng made it necessary to remove the Sabbath s.chool to the Church. Her interest in its welfare continued unabated. To her dying day the Sabbath school was her foster-child. After caring for her invalid mother and sister until those duties were ended, she took up the occupation of a nurse, and by the sick and dying bed her presence was ever welcome. In 1845 she married Dea. Peter Rockwood of Milford, and spent the evening of her days quietly and happily, surrounded by warm friends, blessing and blest of all. Near the close of 1866, she ended her honored and useful life. A stone to commemorate her life was erected by the Sabbath school she loved so well, inscribed "Founder of the Sabbath School at Milford."

H.; taught school some years, and having completed his study for the ministry in 1838, began his ministration in Roxbury, N. H., where he preached nine years. He then went to Southborough, Mass. ; after ten years, feeling that he best could serve his master in a new field, went to New Boston, Mass. Some two years later, while on board a train of cars, bound from Boston to Manchester, N. H., he met with a severe accident, which nearly cost him his life, causing an injury to the spine, from which he has never fully recovered; it so affected his eyes as to disqualify him from writing sermons. About 1854 he opened a school in Thompson, Conn., which became very popular and proved a success; held, by appointment, the office of Judge of Probate there eight years, and has charge of the schools in that town; m.

1551. Abel Rawson" [567] (Lemuel5, Josiah4, David3, William2, Edward1), lived upon his father's farm until 16 years of age. Finding himself unable to endure the fatigue of out-door work on account of feeble health and a crippled limb (the result of disease when less than four years of age), he selected the legal profession as the one best adapted to meet his desires. His father being scarcely able to give him a common school education, Abel was obliged, mainly by teaching school a portion of the time, to earn all the money with which to pay for his education as he went along. He began his preparatory course at the Academy in New Salem, where his father then lived. At the close of the year, the board of trustees, through the influence of Mr. Samuel C. Allen and Mr. Alpheus Harding (both men of high position), voted to refund to Mr. Rawson the tuition paid by him, as a testimonial of his deserts. He next entered Dartmouth College, still teaching school in Winters to replenish his funds, until Feb. 1818, when the U. S. Supreme Court decision upon the Dartmouth College case scattered its faculty and undergraduates.
Mr. Rawson at once began his legal studies in the office of David A. Gregg, Esq., at New Salem, finishing the last few months of his preparatory course in the family and office of Gen. John Nevers of Northfield.
At this time Mr. Rawson found himself over $400 in debt. He gave notes on long time, and afterwards paid them in full. In May, 1823, he was admitted to the bar, with high credit, at Greenfield, Mass.
In March, 1824, he left for the West, and during the Winter of 1824-25, he taught school at Nor walk, Huron Co., Ohio ; and in Aug., 1825, he was admitted to practice law in the courts of Ohio. In 1826, he went to Tiffin, Seneca Co., Ohio, and opened a law office, where he became Postmaster and County Attorney. The latter office he held for eight years. He was commissioned Notary Public for Seneca Co., and appointed Register of the State Land Office, which office he held more than six years. He was also County Recorder for seven years. In 1844, he was appointed Delegate to the Whig Convention held in Baltimore, May 1st of that year.Let us always seek and. abide the right,leaving consequences to the dispensations of Providence?

1555. Dr. Bass Rawson6 [568] (Lemuel5, Josiah4, David3, William2, Edward1), first learned the trade of a hatter, and pursued that occupation for a few years. It proving injurious to his health, he abandoned it and took up the study of medicine. He attended lectures at Hanover, N. H., and in 1829 located in business at Findlay, Hancock Co., Ohio. He there has the reputation of a sklilful physician, and has been very successful. Mr. Rawson has shown himself to be in possession of more than the ordinary amount of courage and perseverance : Having to earn with his own hands the money with which to perfect his earlier and his professional education; then locating in a Western wilderness, as it was called in those days; enduring the privations and hardships of a frontier life, known only to those who have experienced it, he has at last been able to discern the silver lining of that dark cloud which hung so heavily around him in his once new Western home. He married Amanda Blackmer of Greenwich, Mass., in May, 1824. He has one child:—

He attended a course of medical lectures in Cincinnati, and commenced the practice of bis profession at Tymochtee, Wyandot Co., in 1826. He soon removed to Lower Sandusky (now Fremont), Ohio. After a short practice, he attended a course of lectures at the University of Pennsylvania, where he completed his education and received110

He was a grad. of West Point, 4th in class of 1831. He was assistant teacher of mathematics at West Point the two years succeeding. He then received a commission in the U. S. army, and sent with troops to Fort Morgan, Ala. Being assigned to the artillery instead of engineers, which was a disappointment to him, he at once determined to study law. He resigned his commission in 1835. After reading law with Messrs. Kent & Cutting of Bangor, he began the practice of law at Oldtown. In 1836, he formed a copartnership with Israel Washburn (who was afterwards Governor of the State of Maine), at Orono. In 1839 he opened a law office in Bangor, where he continued his practice till the land and lumber trade found for him a more profitable, as well as a more enjoyable, business. Possessing engineering skill and an unusual amount of strength and energy, it enabled him to traverse the unbroken forests of Maine in pursuit of choice tracts, thus having a personal knowledge of that branch of his business. He lived an honest, frugal, industrious life, strictly adhering to temperance principles, upon which trait of character he was elected Mayor of Bangor in 1870-71, having previously, in 1858-59, represented that city in the State Legislature. His generosity prompted him to do many acts of kindness, among which was the donating of four different Public Libraries (one being to his native town), and one thousand dollars to the principal Library in Bangor. He was ever watchful for the good of others, especially giving attention to his children, and leading them by his own pure example.
Resolutions in memory of him were presented by Hon. A. G. Wakefield, in the Supreme Judicial Court in Bangor, and ordered spread upon its records.

Though scarcely yet past the morning of his life, he had received many gratifying proofs of the estimation iu which his talents and probity were held by the people and the councils of his State.

In 1835 removed to Worcester, where he died Dec. 20, 1869, at the age of 71 years.
As a husband and father he was tender and sympathizing, forgetful of himself when considering the comfort and happiness of his family, always doing all in his power for their enjoyment and prosperity. The bereaved home circle have great cause to cherish his memory most sacredly.
Those of his friends who have visited at his house will never forget the pleasant smile, the cordial greeting and friendly interest with which they were welcomed. The sincerity of his heart shone in his countenance.
In the death of Mr. Rawson, society lost one of its mildest and most genial natures. His mind was stored with a fund of practical information that rendered him an intelligent and entertaining companion. Numerous were the spicy and amusing anecdotes with which he constantly illustrated any subject upon which he was conversing.
In the various questions of the day he was deeply interested, and in all matters, whether of a local or general character, political or otherwise, his opinions were formed from a sense of justice and a strict adherence to principle. His sentiments were freely expressed, and if he differed from others, it was in a spirit of candor and benevolence that repelled every feeling of unkindness or animosity.SIXTH GENERATION.

The poor also lost a valuable friend. Charity with hitn was a daily virtue, and not a garment to be worn occasionally or for the observation of others. Many a needy one received help and encouragement at his hand. For the Orphan's Home he felt a particular interest, and he deemed it a privilege to render assistance in any form to the little ones collected there.
Just as he passed the common age of man ("three score and ten"), disease laid her blighting hand upon him, and he faded gradually away.
Resigning himself entirely to the will of God, trusting with childlike confidence in his Saviour, gentle and patient in suffering, he lay down to die, and was gathered into the Heavenly garner —"a shock of corn fully ripe." Children :—

Dr. Bicknell was born at Barrington, R. I., and first learned the jeweler's trade, in Providence, where he carried on that business for a time ; but it did not satisfy his ambition, and he began the study of medicine with Dr. Fuller of Providence (an uncle by marriage), attended medical lectures in N. Y. City, and, in 1836, emigrated to Wisconsin, and became one of the first settlers of Beloit, Rock County. Here he began the practice of his profession, in company with a Dr. White, but, after his marriage, he went to Potosi, and continued his practice there with good success. Upon the death of Dr. White, his former partner, at the earnest solicitation of his friends, he returned to Beloit about 1845. In 1849, he went overland to California. He returned in 1852, entering upon a larger practice than ever. He enjoyed the full confidence of all who knew him as their family physician, and gained for himself a lasting reputation as a very skillful practitioner. To be able to relieve those who were suffering from disease was his delight, and he honored his profession. Soon after the war came upon us, he enlisted, and received a commission as surgeon in the 22d Reg't Wis. Volunteers, which position he filled acceptably to all, until, exhausted and seriously threatened with disease himself, from the exposure of camp life, he resigned his commission and returned home. There followed him, however, soon after, a commission as A. A. Surgeon U. S. A., at Camp Douglas, Chicago, 111.; here he remained until that camp was about to be deserted, when he again resigned his commission and returned to private practice at Beloit, where he died June 16, 1870. She d. Dec. 26, 1867. She was a devoted wife and a Christian mother. Children : —

2758.	Almedia. Bass Rawscw7 [1473] (Clark", Simeon5, Josiah4, David", William3, Edward1), m. Col. Hiram Buck of Crown Point, N. Y., Feb. 1836. Col. Buck was born at Brid-port, Addison Co., Vt., and went to Crown Point when about the age of twenty, to look after his father's estate; he having been extensively engaged, with a brother, in carrying on a brisk and successful mercantile and lumbering business, and leaving behind a comfortable fortune. The Colonel was engaged principally (besides a store) in real estate speculations, which proved to be quite successful, and at his death (which occurred Feb. 7, 1864), was one of the largest land owners in that State. The widow survives him. Children:—
1.	Hiram (Buck), b. Feb. 1839.
2.	Almedia " b. Feb. 1842.
3.	Rawson Clark (Buck), b. Oct. 1844.
2759.	Lieut.	Hiram Buck8 (1), m. Amanda Russell, Feb. 21, 1860,
dau. of Samuel Russell, Esq., of Crown Point, N. Y. A most amiable, accomplished and intelligent lady. Lieut. B. exhibited, in his youth, a fondness for all that is beautiful in nature, as well as a strong desire to gain knowledge. At the age of sixteen he entered Fort Edward Institute, where he remained about two years devoting his time to Civil Engineering, Geology, &c., and taking an active part in all the public exercises of the school, much to the credit of himself and satisfaction to his tutors. While at that institution he began the collection of a Natural History, Curiosity and Geological Cabinet, to which he has constantly been adding until it is now quite a museum, containing many very rare specimens. In 1858, at the suggestion of his father, he organized a company of Light Infantry under the State Militia law. It was designated Company H, 31st Reg. N. Y. S. M. Young Buck was elected 1st Lieut. When the Civil War broke out, he, with his fellow officers, and a large portion of this company, promptly tendered their services to aid in the preservation of the Union. The places of those who declined to enlist to go forward were soon replaced with fresh recruits, and after a few days drill, the Lieut, bade adieu to his young wife and infant daughter; took his departure early in June, 1861, with over one hundred men, for the scene of action. They enlisted for three years, and formed Co. H of the 34th Reg. N. Y. S. Vol. Infantry, and were assigned to 2d Division of the 2d Corps, Army of the Potomac. The hot climate of the South, together with the sudden changes of diet and exposures of camp life, soon produced a serious change in the condition of his health (being of rather delicate constitution), and while stationed at Camp Kal-lorama he became completely prostrate from the deranged condition of his system. He dually was compelled, though with much reluctance, to resign his commission, in order that he might reach home alive; where, after skillful treatment and careful nursing for weeks and months, his health partially returned, although for years he was physically weak. He retained the love and respect of his company, and when he met themSEVENTH GENERATION.

on their return home from the war, they gave him a warm and hearty welcome, at the same time ^presenting him with a beautiful Army Corps badge. He has held the office of Notary Public for many years; also several minor Town offices; is a regular correspondent of several newspapers, and his modest nom-de-plume ("Nemo") has attained some little distinction in the literary world. The lines below are from his pen, and were suggested by the following clause in a letter he received from the lamented honest Horace Greeley during the Presidential Campaign of 1872 : "I shall not be discouraged, for I know we are right, and right must prevail in the end."
EIGHT MUST PREVAIL.
by lieut. hi. buck.
How long sball float that tarnished flag? Flag of revenge and hatel
The flag of -victory in the strife, But now, vile politician's bait.
It is not like our Stars and Stripes. Red, white and blue, sublimely blended,
Emblem still of harmony, Though sadly tattered, worn and mended.
Each stripe, a sister State— The old, fraternal, grand thirteen,
Firmly united, side by side— A common cause, ours once has been.
Coquetting Stars! cold field of blue! Numerous, but yet divided;
,	Let's push them closer, each to each,
Till, as the Stripes, tbey are united.
If brothers of the South have erred— Gone blindly, heedlessly astray—
By might of arms we've forced them back, And	must keep them in the way.
Let us be wise; be generous: For well can we afford
To stretch our hand to prostrate foe, And speak the kindly word.
Then let's be "Liberal 1" that's the word, Though scheming politicians frown;
Let's run true "union colors" up, And haul their "flag of hatred" down.
Should avarice, money, power, revenge. United, cause us once to fall,
Press on I for well we know we're right 1	»
And "right must in the end prevail."

•IN MEMORIAM.
Anthony Richmond, son of Samuel and Eliza Rawson, was among the first to respond to the call for troops in our country's late hour of peril, and as a member of the 1st R. I. Reg't, reported for duty in Washington. April 18, 1861.
From that time forward his life was devoted to his country. After the 1st Regiment was disbanded, he was commissioned Lieutenant in the 3d R. I. Reg't, and with them had an uninterrupted service in the South for 27 months, exposed to all the dangers of the troops before Port Sumter, whether in camp or iu the field.
Passing through the grades of promotion, he received a commission as Captain of the Colored troops, and was ordered to Washington for exainiuatiou, December, 1863.
After the examination, being appointed Capt. 14th R. I. H. A., he was ordered to report at the Camp of the Regiment at Dutch Island, in Narragansett Bay, as bleak and dreary a spot in Winter as can well be imagined. The contrast oi climate was extreme, and in his case proved fatal. His constitution, enervated by his Southern life, and exhausted by exposure in the trenches before Fort Wagner, was unable to bear this new strain upon It, and, after a service of only three days, lie returned home sick.
For four months he lingered through an Intensely paiutul illness, and then died, leaving for his little daughters the proud record of an unblemished name, suffering patiently borne and duty bravely and cheerfully done, even to the end.
A Christian soldier, his lifers battle, though a short one, ended in a glorious victory, and his name goes to swell the long roll of those who were not afraid to die for their country.228

At a meeting of the Barnard Society of the Conn. Normal School the following resolution was adopted:—
Whereas, God, in his Providence, has again entered our circle and removed death Mr. Edward D. Rawson;
Besolved, That in this dispensation we have lost one whose high purpose and Christian life made him an ornament in the profession of Teaching; and while deeply mourning his loss, let us live so that it may be said of us, as it can be truly said of him, " He hath done what he could."

Nathaniel Rawson's family at Milford, Mass.; returned to Peru, Vt., and remained from the Spring of 1826 to the Autumn of 1828, when he went to Windsor, Vt., to learn the printing business, under Mr. J. C. Allen of the Vermont Chronicle. He was there about three years, during which time he joined the Congregational church. In 1831 he went to Boston, Mass., and fouud employment in the Type and Stereotype Foundry, attending divine worship at Dr. Lyman Beecher's church. In 1833, he went to Hampton, Conn., and in 1834 to Hartford, where he was so impressed at the first sight (to hirn) of the Administration of the Lord's Supper, according to the Episcopal order, that on his return to Middlebury, Vt., soon after, he received the Rite of Confirmation from Bishop Hopkins of the Episcopal Church of that place. After his marriage, and in the Winter of 1836 and '37, in partnership with G. A. Tuttle, published a paper called the " Vermont Statesman," but it was not a success. After spending two years at Plattsburgh, N. Y., a short time at Burlington and Johnson, Vt., he, in 1843, went to N. Y. City.

The following report, by a Committee appointed for that purpose, is.expressive of the sentiments of Keesville Lodge of Good Templars, and was accepted, and unanimously adopted:—
In the death of Miss Clara Rawson, a member of this Lodge, we recognize the hand and power of the Supreme Being. That this, and all similar dispensations, are intended for ultimate good, we have no room for doubt, and have every reason to believe. That one so young should be taken, and so suddenly, is certainly a great affliction; but God is the dispenser, and our duty, and only duty, is submission. Your Committee would recommend for consideration,and adoption by the Lodge, the following resolutions:
Resolved, That we feel and deplore the loss of Miss Clara Rawson, our fellow-laborer in the cause ol' Temperance, who has always been prompt in the discharge of any and every duty assigned her by the Lodge, and whose bearing at all times has been so commendable, and evinced so much earnestness in efforts for the promotion of the interests of our Order.
Resolved, That we extend to the parents and relatives of Clara Rawson our deepest sympathy for the loss of a daughter and a friend beloved, and can only commend them in their sorrow to the God of all Grace for consolation and support.
Resolved, That as a token of respect to the memory of our deceased sister, the Charter of this Lodge be draped in mourning for thirty days.
Resolved, That the foregoing be published in the Essex County Republican, Plattsburgh Republican, Plattsburgh Sentinel, and Burlington Free Press.

"Boston, July 4, 1661.
" Honored Sir :
" The Council of our Jurisdiction being assembled the 4th inst. at Boston, ordered me to signify to you what lately they have received from England by Capt. Leverett, his letter bearing date 12th Apiiil, 1661, who tells us that, however," our addresses to his Majesty came seasonably, and had a gracious answer. Yet many complaints and claims are multiplied against us, and we are likely to hear from his Majesty's Committee what these complaints are, and what is expected from us; that an oath was produced against him for saying, that rather than we should or would admit to appeals here, we would sell the country to the Spaniards : which though he absolutely denied that he ever so said, and that if he

should have so said, he had wronged the country very much. Some of the Committee said, the words, if spoken, they were pardoned, but they looked at the words not so much his, as the spirit of the Country, and that again, he desired that the country might not suffer in their minds for what he knew was so much and ^o far from them, as to think aught in any such respect. Yet one of them proceeded to question him, whether, if we durst, we would not cast off our allegiance and subjection to his Majesty? He answered, he did apprehend we were honest men, and had declared in our application to his Majesty the Country, and therefore could not have such thoughts of us without the breach of chaiity ; that was no less than necessary we had some able person to appear for us, well furnished to carry on our business, which will not be with out money; that the Council for Plantations demanded of him whether we had proclaimed the King, and whether there was not much opposition to agreeing of our application. He answered he knew not, only he heard Capt. Breaden say so, but humbly submitted to their consideration, that neither we nor any other were to be concluded by debates, but by our conclusion, which were sent and presented to his Majesty in our names.
" They took notice, from inquiry, that it was only from one Colony, namely, Massachusetts, and have iheire considerations of other colonies' neglects, to speak most favorably thereof; thus far as to the letter. Further I am required to signify to you as from them, that the non attendance with diligence to execute the King's warrant for apprehending of Col. Whaley and Goff, will much hazard the present state of these colonies, and your own particularly, if not some of your persons, which is not a little afflictive to them. And that iu their understanding there remains no way to expiate the offence, and preserve yourselves from danger and hazard, but by apprehending the said persons, who, as we are informed, are yet remaining in the colony, and not above a fortnight since were seen there, all which will be against you. Sir, your own welfare, the welfare of your neighbors, bespeak your unwearied pains to free yourself and neighbors. I shall not add so lately, by a few lines from our Governor and myself, looking much this way, communicated our sense and thoughts of your and our troubles, and have yet received no return, but commend you to God, and his rich grace, for your guidance and direction in a matter of such moment as his Majesty may receive- full and just satisfaction, the mouths of all Opposers stopped, and the profession of Truth that is in you and us may not in the least suffer by your actings, is the prayer of

" Sir :
"Since what I wrote, news and certain intelligence is come hither, of Col. Whalley and Goff being at New Haven, from Saturday to Monday, and publicly known, and however it is given out that they came to surrender themselves, and pretended by Mr. Gilbert that he looked when they would have come in and surrendered, never setting a guard about the house, nor endeavoring to secure them, but when it was too late to send to Teticut, &c. Sir, how this will be taken, is not difficult to imagine, to be sure, not well; nay, will not all men condemn you as wanting to yourselves, and that you have something to rely on, at least that you hope will auswer your ends ? I am not willing to meddle with your hopes ; but if it be a duty to obey such lawful warrents, as I believe it is, the neglect thereof will prove uncomfortable. Pardon me, sir, it is my desire you may regain your peace, (and if you please to give me notice when you will send the two Colonels) tho' Mr. Wood Greene is bound hence within a month, yet, if you shall give me assurance of their coming, I shall not only endeavour ; but do hereby engage to cause his stay a fortnight, nay, three weeks, rather than they should not be sent.

The capture of New York by the Dutch, in 1673, created an alarm among the English Colonies, lest their dominions might also be invaded. The Federal Commissioners met at Hartford, Conn., and recommended to the General Court of each of the Colonies to provide some means of defence ; and in accordance with the same, the Governor and Council of Massachusetts, at a meeting, August 4th, 1673, ordered that for the defence against the Dutch certain measures should be adopted, such as putting forts in order, <fcc.

The Court grants the Petition, and do Grant and Confirm the said Tract to the said Edward Rawson his heirs and assignes, Allowing the Sale of the said Thomas Awassamoage, It not interfering with any former Grants."*
The tract of land above referred to contained, according to the wording of the deed (which was given the 21st day of April, 1685) " about Two Thousand Acres more or less." There are two sales from this parcel of land recorded—one of 1840 acres to William Heywood, Thomas Sanford and others, and another of 800 acres to his eldest son William Rawson, Sept. 7th, 1687 ; and at his death he still held 700 acres of the same tract. In all, including other grants from the general Court previously mentioned, [see pages 3 and 4], the Secretary Edward Rawson must have been the possessor of over 6,000 acres of land in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

Edward Rawson's Petition to Sir Edmund Andross, A. D.
1686.
" To his Excellency, Sir Edmund Andross, Knight, Captain General and Governor-in- Chief of New England, in America:
" The Humble Motion by way of Petition of Edward Rawson, sheweth,
" That your petitioner, for about thirty-six years, hath constantly served his Majesty's Government in the Office of Secretary and Keeper of Books and Records of the General Court of his Majesty's late Colony of the Massachusetts, wherein, besides the requisite diligence and faithfulness he, in the discharge of that trust, as every day required, exercised himself, and employed and paid others by way of assistance in methodizing the proceedings for posterity, as he hoped, the papers, books, and records in his custody, by giving out transcripts and copies thereof as there should be occasion, might have recompensed his said voluntary and free pains, and cost therein, by affording him a competent maintenance in his now declining years, (being very near seventy-three,) which was his great encouragement for to spend his days so to public advantage, now redounding to his Majesty's service. But that benefit and hope being by your Excellency's and Council's order cut off, by devolving upon Mr. Edward Randolph, (his Majesty's Principal Secretary,) the said trust and papers, to the increasing of his profit and incomes, (the justice whereof your petitioner doth not repine at,) and forasmuch as besides the arrears due to your Petitioner for his care and custody thereof, to the time of his discharge, as the penurious rate of his former yearly allowance is not only withheld, but unless by your Excellency's goodness (otherwise provided for) his hopes of subsistence for the future despaired, to his great discouragement, and of all others, who shall have the like trust in his Majesty's service, so to260

discharge themselves as your Petitioner hath done. And your Excellency having been graciously pleased not only to require his service and assistance in the late custody and re-methodizing of the said books, records, and papers for future use and delivering them over to Mr. Randolph, but also to give your petitioner, your gracious promise of considering for the same, required his proposal for his satisfaction.
" Your petitioner, therefore, hopes and humbly prays your Excellency, by the advice and consent of his Majesty's Council, will please to order a satisfaction to be made unto him, not only for the two last years, wherein he hath actually served his Majesty, as aforesaid, according to his former salary of sixty pounds per annum, but also some future yearly annuity or pension, out of his Majesty's Revenue here for his sustenance, such as your Excellency shall judge suitable to the quality of the trust he hath so discharged, and for, and during his natural life, And he shall ever pray, &c.

RAWSON FAMILY MEMORIAL.
"After he had taken his first Degree, he was invited by his brother-in-law, the Rev. Mr. Samuel Torrey, to come to his house, and study divinity there, which he did, with such proficiency, that he was advised to enter upon preaching. He preached his first Sermon at Medfield, with great acceptation ; and after two months' occasional performances at other places, he received an invitation to Mendon. He had been but a very short time here before the Sectaries from the neighboring town of Providence laboured to lead aside the people. While he had his meeting at one end of the Town, they held a meeting at the other end. However, after he had disputed with them two or three times, they grew weary and left the Town. Before he was ordained, he was invited unto other places, where he had a far greater prospect for his outward comfort in the World, than could be expected in such a small place, where there was but about twenty families just recovering themselves from a tedious war. But those few sheep in the wilderness lay so much upon his heart, that it made him overlook many worldly enjoyments, if he might be instrumental to keep them in the truth. Indeed, he never seemed to have his heart set upon the world, but used often to say, He believed he should have enough to carry him unto his journey's end.
"As he grew into more years, the care of the Churches more came upon him, the unwearied pains he took for them! There was not a Council for many years in all the neighboring Towns, but he was at it. Also his voyage as a Chaplain with the Fleet that went unto Canada,* and the half year he spent in the service for God at Nantucket, will not be soon forgotten.
"As for his pains with his own Flock (siuce exceeding increased unto more than an hundred families) for more than five and thirty years, he was a faithful labourer, in season and out of season; in public and in private, suiting himself to all occasions, that he might be profitable to his hearers; especially upon the death of any, old or young. He catechised, first in publick, on the Lord's days, in the afternoons, afterwards he had set times to catechise in the week. He divided the Town into five parts ; and every Friday there was a meeting in one or other of them, where he preached a Sermon, and catechised the children which belonged unto the families thereabouts. His pains in visiting the sick were unwearied; his prayers with them, without ceasing ; at which the neighborhood would flock to the house where he came, as. if it had been to a lecture. The constitution of the people, and their affairs, he knew so well, that they thought they could carry on nothing well without him. God made him a great Peace Maker, so that in all the thirty-five years of his continuance in the Town, there was no considerable difference. Though his carriage were so sweet and easy that the weakest, and even a child might, in distress, talk with him, yet he had respect from all. And oh! the

oil, which he poured into the wounds of many distressed ones, both in the town and out of it!
"He was the strictest observer of the Lord's Day that I ever took notice of in my life ; that neither child, nor servant, nor stranger, within his gate, was permitted any thing but what tended to religion. He was a strict observer of worship in his family, and the devotions of his retirements were such as no company nor business might ever put him by. He was a great reader of the Sacred Scriptures, and might say, 'Thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage.' His charity was as exemplary as his piety. And in his hospitality he would often say, he had rather want entertainment than good company.
"As for his labours among the Indians, it was twenty-seven years since he undertook the work. It was thought two jears was time little enough to learn their language in. But applying himself to the business, with God's blessing on his extraordinary pains, it was not above nine months before he preached to the Indians to their good understanding.
"Within two years they removed their habitations, to be so near him, that for a whole summer, his custom was, when he came from his own English Congregation on the Lord's day, about five o'clock, to take about half an hour's repose, and then go to the Indians, and pray with them, and preach to them ; so that he performed three exercises every Lord's day, while he had strength to attend them. His discouragements were great, in that there was so little good done among them. He judged a great occasion of it might be the strong drink, with which some of the English too often furnished them. 1 think no man could bear a greater testimony against it, and when he could fiud no other way to restrain it, at length he persuaded the Church to renew their Covenant; and a solemn day ot Prayer with Fasting was kept on that occasion, and this article was made one of the engagements : That whoever should sell any strong drink to an Indian, should be counted a Covenant Breaker, and be dealt withal in the Church accordingly, which put a considerable stop unto it. Some while before his death he had an illness, in which he lay weak and languishing, almost all the summer, and it was very sinking unto his spirit, that he was, as he said, Like a dead man among the living. But God restored him to his publick ministry, whiclj was so refreshing to him, that he would say, He desired nothing more in the world than that God would give him strength to preach, and bear his name before his people. And God so answered his desire, that he preached constantly every Lords day, till just three weeks before his death.
" But now the time drew near that he must die. At the first of his illness, he was desirous to have lived, if it had been the will of God, for the sake of his family ; but his illness increasing on him, he was in a short time taken off from any thoughts or desires of life. I told him, it was a great favour of God unto him, that he had obtained mercy, to be found faithful in the work268
RAWSON FAMILY MEMORIAL.
that God had called him to. He replied, with great humility ; ' Oh, the great imperfection ! Oh, the great imperfection I have been guilty of! How little have I done for God!' But then he further answered ; 'If it were not for the imperfection of the saints there would be no need of a Saviour!' And he added, 4 In the Lord Jehovah I have righteousness and strength.' I never heard the least impatient word proceed from him, in all the time of his illness; though his difficulties were beyond all expression, but he would say to the standers by, He would have none of them have the least hard thought of God, for what they saw him endure. I told him one time, He had meat to eat which the world knew not of! at which, lifting up his hands, he said, ' Lord, give me more and more of that meat! ' And he would often say, ' I have waited for thy salvation, O Lord! ' Seeing his extreme difficulties, I told him, One hour in the bosom of Jesus Christ would make him forget all these sorrows. His reply was ; ' Oh ! that I were in that bosom ! Lord, how have I lived so long without thee ! ' Desiring one of the Watchers to read unto him the twenty-third Psalm, at the end of every clause he said, ' Amen !' And on the last verse, he said, ' Amen ; I shall dwell in the house of the iord for ever.'
" But I cannot rehearse the hundredth part of the gracious words that came out of his mouth. That morning he died, he was on the wing to be gone unto the Eternal Mansions in his Father's House. He said unto his Physician, Dear Brother, is there no comfortable prospect of Death ? The Physician told him, he could not perceive he was a dying, but thought it could riot be long first. He replied, ' Lord, give me Faith, give me Patience ; Lord, how long !' In the latter part of the day, we plainly perceived him to be drawing on. He then desired me, and all his Children to be patient and let the Lord's work be carried on. The last word he was ever heard to say was, ' Come Lord Jesus, come quickly !' It was on the Lord's day, about sunset, Feb. 6, 1714, that he resigned his soul into the hands of his dear Redeemer."

The necessity of a speedy and thorough Reformation, as it was discoursed in a Sermon, preached before his Excellency the Governor, the Honorable Council and Representatives of the Province of Massachusetts Bay in New England, on May 25, 1709, by Grindal Raavson, A.

Jeremiah xiH: 16.—Give glory to the Lord your God, before lie cnuse darkness, and before your feet stumble upon tlie dark mountains, and while ye look for light, he turn it into the shadow of death, and make It gross darkness.
Our Political Fathers are called upon to do all that lies in their power, that this People under their conduct may become a reformed People.
Can encouragements be wanting to invigorate their utmost application unto an affair of such grand and necessary importance ? Are they not the keepers of both tables 1 Are they not armed with a sufficiency of power and authority to demand and enforce the steady observation of holiness and virtue ? Should they not be a terror to evil works, and a praise to those who do well 1 Has not the work of Reformation a great dependence, under God, who hath the hearts of all men in his hands, upon their courage, prudence, zeal and activity ? We never read, in sacred or Ecclesiastical History, of any notable general Reformation amongst a People, except the Magistrate did countenance and help it forward. Would Judah have ever been reformed if those excellent Princes, Asa, Jehoshaphat, Hezekiah, and Josiah had not bestowed their indefatigable care and pains in producing their reformation ? Most sure it is that religious and reforming Magistrates have all the reason in the world to expect that their steady engagement in a work so pleasing and grateful to Heaven, will secure to them the presence of a gracious and almighty God, and entail his lasting blessing on them.
Should not many things be essayed by the Civil Authority towards putting a stop to the growth of those immoralities, which will assuredly bring the terrible revenges of Heaven upon the people under their conduct ? Can they not do much this way, by being exemplary to them in all manner of holy and circumspect conversation ? Is it not to be hoped that their religious examples will be attended with potent charms and powerful incentives ?
Will not the Godly in the land readily fall in and. comply with the encouraging precedent; and Iniquity for shame stop her mouth ? Should not laws be enacted for the suppressing of vice and impiety ? And if experience testifies the insufficiency of such as are already made to reach the end intended by them, must not others be contrived and established which will offer a greater probability of success ? But will this answer the designs of Reformation, if when all is done, they be not duly, strictly, and impartially executed 1 To what end is the naked sword in state borne before the Magistrate but to signify his readiness to be a revenger, and to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil? Should not the persons into whose hands the Executive part of the Law is betrusted, be men of prudence, piety, zeal and courage, and should not their attendance to their duty be prudently looked into and observed ? Will not the improvement of persons of a contrary temper and character, be altogether dis-serviceable to the desired and pleaded-for Reformation ? Ought270

not the law to be vigorously urged and executed, in which provision is made for the supply of all places, by a learned, orthodox, and faithful Ministry, especially such as have from the very first of the settlement'lived in a way of deference to Gospel order? Is it not necessary that every good thing be carefully cherished, upheld, and promoted, and the things strengthened that are ready to die ?
May it therefore please your Excellency:
The unerring providence of God, and the favor of the best of Queens, have placed your Excellency at the helm of Government over this Province. You will therefore, Sir, account it your honor and duty to resemble the Deity in all acts of piety and goodness, and to copy after the illustrious example of her most excellent Majesty, whose repeated proclamations against vice and immoralities, have abundantly convinced the world, that her Majesty is at an irreconcilable enmity with every thing that has a tendency to draw down the wrath of an Almighty and sin-hating God, on the Kingdoms and Plantations over whom she sways her scepter. God hath adorned your Excellency with admirable accomplishments, and uncommon talents. Your Excellency will give us leave to expect that they shall all be improved for the glory and honor of God and the reformation of a People laboring under the just rebukes and displeasure of Heaven on the score of their multiplied transgressions and provocations.
Permit me, Sir to observe, that your Excellency's very honorable Father was one of those noble Patriots, under whose religious and auspicious conduct were laid the foundations of our New England Heavens and Earth, I mean their sacred and civil Constitution, on which account his name is worthy of an everlasting remembrance. It went well with that generation, in whose stead has risen up another generation, who have in a great measure forsaken God, and sinned away much of his gracious presence from them. How agreeable a thing will it be that your Excellency, by powerful example and proper influence, on all who move under you in a lower sphere, should endeavor the bringing back this People to the Lord God of their Fathers. Thus doing, God will be with, and own, bless and prosper you ; and your Excellency's name will not only be hereby rendered dear and honorable to the latest posterity, but, after, Sir, you have here served your generation by the will of God, a safe retreat will be secured for you into the arms of Eternal Mercy.
As lor those Honorable Persons that are, or may this day be chosen to assist his Excellency in Council: It is the earnest hope and expectation of those by whom you are chosen into that post of honor and trust, and of all the God fearing souls in the Province, that you will carefully intend and promote the speedy reformation of all that is provoking to God in the land.
Your honors are well acquainted with the way, humor, frame, temper, temptations, and provocations of this People, and will not be thereby discouraged from attempting whatever is necessaryAPPENDIX.
271
to be done, for promoting a work so desirable and necessary. Whatever oppositions or obstructions may lie in the way, the presence of God will easily remove, or help you to surmount them. Will your Honors, then, be pleased to arise and buckle to the work with a renewed application. God, we trust, will own and crown your endeavors with success. However it prove, your Honors will have comfort and satisfaction in this, that you have faithfully endeavored the discharge of the trust committed to you by God and man, and may be sure to obtain a proportional reward.
The worthy Gentlemen of the House of Representatives, who have called me (the most unworthiest of all servants of the Lord in the ministry) to speak on such, and so great an occasion as this, will allow me the freedom of putting them in mind, that they have a great opportunity, privilege and advantage in their hands, unto the doing of what is very considerable towards the promoting the necessary reformation I am pleading for ; you have the privilege of assisting at least, in the choice of those worthy persons, who are to be chosen to assist his Excellency in Council, and to help manage the affairs of the public in this stormy and difficult circumstanced season.
What care and conscience ought you to take that your suffrages be given for those, who in the best of your judgment, are duly qualified for so great a trust, and will be most likely to address themselves, with an indefatigableness of application, to the opposing and discountenancing whatever is a ground of God's controversy with his people, by whom you are betrusted. You will doubtless look upon it your duty and concern, to consent unto the laws which are yet necessary to be made and enacted, for the promoting and securing the religious, or temporal interests of the country. Your prudence, piety, zeal for the glory of God, and your country's good, are greatly relied on, and you will not fail to give signal proof and demonstrations of them. You forget not that the country's purse is in your hands ; you will be careful to husband it to the best advantage, considering its very low and reduced circumstances. But yet will in no sort be wanting to supply the treasury, with what is necessary for the safety and defence of the country, and the honorable support of the government.
Secondly ; Here is a call to our spiritual fathers in the churches. They will permit one of the unworthiest of their order to put them in mind how greatly they are concerned to do all they can to promove a work of reformation amongst this people.
Reverend and highly esteemed, The Lord Jesus Christ, the great Shepherd and Bishop of souls, hath called us forth, and set us apart to bear his name before this generation of his people. We are under most sacred, solemn and awful obligations unto a constant, careful, and considerable improvement of all the talents and abilities, the glorious head of influence hath furnished us with,272

in order unto our subserving their best and eternal interests. Our endeavours must not, and I trust, thro' grace assisting, will not be wanting, to lay before them plain, clear, full, and awakening discoveries of the whole will of God concerning them, although we ought to acknowledge, with great humility and thankfulness, the Lord's singular mercy and favor to us, in rendering us instrumental unto the saving good of many. Thro' the Almighty efficacy and influence of his Holy Spirit, that he hath vouchsafed to us so many seals of our ministry, who truly fear, serve, and endeavor to glorify God, by an holy, useful, and exemplary conversation ; yet the dull, dead, careless, worldly, sensual and exemplary conversations of many who make a profession of godliness, the manifest tokens of an impenitent, irregenerate spirit upon many of the standing and uprising generations, notwithstanding all care and pains taken with them, to dispose them to a sense of their eternal concernments, afford us matter of very trembling and humbling consideration, and ought to awaken us unto a studious thoughtfulness upon the properest methods which may be used with them, by a blessing on which they may be rendered the glorious instance of sparing and saving mercy. Great care must be taken that we do not give way to discouragement ; with a sincere reliance on the victorious grace of God, which alone is sufficient to change and convert the otherwise unconquerable hearts of sinners, let us resolve to persist in an endeavor of making full proof of our ministry, preaching the Word in season and out of season, reproving, rebuking, exhorting, with all long suffering and doctrine, mainly insisting on those truths which tend to lay open the nature and necessity of conversion, and the danger of continuing in a Christless and impenitent state and condition. A due level must be taken at the prevailing sins and vices of the times, and the present duty of them urged with repeatedness of inculcation. Alluring addresses are to be made unto sinners, to invite them unto a forsaking the foolish, that so they may live, and a glorious Saviour set before and offered to them, as the only way of obtaining pardon and blessedness. We must never forget to be carrying our flocks in the arms of our faith and prayers to the merciful throne; nor forbear to be wrestling with the God and father of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, that he would pour out his Spirit upon them, and attend the dispensations of the Word of his grace, with a divine blessings and an irresistible influence, an holy discipline must be constantly used, aud improved upon the proper occasions that call for it.
Our more private personal instructions, exhortations, cautions, councils, warnings, and admonitions, as opportunity may be offered, would on a trial be found some of the best expedients, by which the designs of practical godliness would be wonderfully subserved. The lambs of the flock must be tenderly regarded ; it is necessary we make them the subjects of our cares, and repeated instructions; it is criminal to exclude them from theAPPENDIX.
273
watch and discipline, their being a part of the flock makes owing to them. It is needless to add that the purity of our doctrines should be carefully represented to our hearers, in the unblameli-ness of our lives and conversations ? How altogether necessary should we suppose it to be that our families be preserved under the exactest order and regulations, and a due distance kept by all under the wing of our domestic government, from everything which in others bespeak our just reproofs and reprehensions? Would not a strict and cordial union amongst ouselves, the more orderly practice of the consociation of Churches, and upholding and preserving the just authority of Councils, without the least infringement of the liberties and privileges by divine appointment belonging to particular Churches ; and the making due provision for the trial of the abilities and conversation of such as are to be improved for Gospel service, in the churches of the faithful ? tend much to the strengthening our hands; and be of singular advantage to us in the pursuing of those things whereby the best good of this people may be hopefully subserved.

" David Rawson."RAWSON FAMILY REUNIONS.
FIRST REUNION.
The first Meeting was held October 8th, 1872, at Worcester, Mass. A large namber of the descendants of Edward Rawson convened together at Horticultural Hall, at the call of Mr. R. R. Dodg-e of Sutton; and after an hour or two had been passed in pleasant introductions and mutual congratulations the Union was further organized by the eleetion of Edmund Grindal Rawson, M. D., of New York City, as President, and Mr. Lew,is J. Rawson of Worcester as Secretary.
Mr. Reuben Rawson Dodge then delivered a brief address of welcome, paying an appropriate tribute to the memory of the noble man in whose honor the company had met.
The President then introduced Luther Rawson Marsh, Esq., of New York City, who spoke as follows :—
Mr. President and Kinsmen :
I am very grateful to those of our number who have held the memory of our common progenitor in such regard that they have gathered and conscientiously guarded the relics that illustrate his life; his original portrait and that of his daughter Rebecca, his sacred Bible, the six large and portly volumes of his writings, and the various incidents of his career; and this, not only, but at infinite pains, have sought out and classified the families and individuals of his descendants, to theAPPENDIX.

sixth generation, distributed as they are over all the Union, and without any toil or research on our part, given us the printed record. We have not been obliged to pore over the mouldering records of the Recording Offices, nor investigate the papers of the Probate Courts, nor attempt to decipher the worn letters on ancient stone or marble slab, nor seek out the oldest inhabitants and stir their feeble memories of the olden time; all this has been done to our hand by some of our faithful kinsmen, and the whole record, on the printed page, lies under our eye. I think we know to whom we are mainly indebted for this interesting work. Let us hold in regard the names of Sullivan S. Rawson, Joseph H. Dorr, and Joseph Rawson; but give our special gratitude to one who has given days and nights to this compilation—sparing neither time nor money—Reuben Rawson Dodge of East Sutton, Massachusetts. Since that time, twenty-two years have elapsed, new generations have come upon the stage of active life, five thousand descendants of this pregenitor now inhabit these States, and a new record, current with the present time, seems to be demanded.
Edward Rawson was a prominent character in the founding and development of New England; his acts pervade, especially, the early history of Massachusetts, and his moulding hand is manifest in her progress. Himself of an illustrious stock, and illustriously allied in marriage, he came hither from his native England at the age of twenty-one, in 1636 or '7—236 years ago—took the Freeman's oath, and planted his home in the town of " Old Newbury." By this oath he acknowledged himself to be subject to the Government of Massachusetts; affirming, " And therefore do here swear, by the great and dreadful name of the ever-living God, that I will be true and faithful to the same, and will accordingly yield assistance and support thereunto, with my person and estate, as in equity I am bound; and will also truly endeavor to maintain and preserve all the liberties and privileges thereof, submitting myself to the wholesome lawes and orders made and established by the same. And further, that I will not plot or practice any evil against it, or consent to any that shall do so; but will timely discover and reveal the same to lawful authority now here established, for the speedy preventing thereof. Moreover, I doe solemnly bind myself in the sight of God that when I shall be called to give my voyce touching any such matter of this State, in which Ereemen are to deal, I will give my vote and suffrage as I shall judge in my own conscience may conduce and tend to the publike weal of the body. So help me God in the Lord Jesus Christ."
This oath, which in this age it is so refreshing to recall, and which so marvellously comprises and condenses the whole duty of man to his government, he sacredly kept to his last day. He seems immediately to have been chosen for an official career, having been elected Town Clerk, Notary and Register in 1638; which offices were continued to him, with various other stations of public trust—such as Selectman, Commissioner for the Trial of Causes, Superintendent of the Manufacture of Powder, Deputy to the General Court, a Reviser of the Laws, &c.— during the 13 years he remained at Newbury; whence he removed in 1650278
RAWSON FAMILY MEMORIAL.
to Boston, to assume the duties of Secretary of the Colony of Massachusetts Bay—an office he retained for thirty-six years. His election is thus spoken of by Johnson, in his work, " The Wonder Working Providence" published in London in 1654:—" Mr. Edward Rawson, a young man, yet employed in Commonwealth affairs a long time, being well beloved by the inhabitants of Newbury, having had a large hand in her foundation, but of late, he being of a ripe capacity, a good yeoman, and eloquent inditer, hath been chosen Secretary of the Colony." The fact that he was thus for forty-seven years, kept in these two offices, without a break, holding them not by appointment but by successive yearly elections by the people—au instance which can scarcely be paralleled in the history of the country—shows that he must have united the strictest integrity, commanding the confidence of the people, with rare elements of popularity; and we know that, even at the end, the change was not made through any wish of his constituents,. but because the very Government itself was usurped by Sir Edmund Andross.
He was a large owner of lands in Newbury and Boston—some of his acres at the latter place bordering on the Commons ; no mean inheritance could his desceudants possess it now. His name was impressed upon the street he lived in so many years iu Boston—" Rawson's Lane,"— and so remained for nearly a hundred and fifty years, when, about the beginning of the present century, through some local influence, the injustice was done him to change the name to Bromfleld Street. I think Boston owes it to herself and to the memory of'her old Secretary to re-instate its original' designation. A better justice has been done in Newbury, where the roll of two centuries and a quarter have not effaced from the grasses where he used to walk, the name of " Rawson Meadow."
Among the twelve children of the Secretary was one, Rebecca Raw-son, acknowledged as pre-eminent for beauty and accomplishments in the then incipient Athens, and whom Whittier selected as the lovely heroine of the quaint and charming journal he attributed to Margaret Smith.
Another, Grindal Rawson, was one of the three—John Cotton, Cotton Mather, Grindal Rawson—whom the President of Harvard College deemed worthy of special notice at the Commencement of 1678, two centuries ago. Such was his work in the Ministry and as an Evangelist among the Indians, his "Flock in the Wilderness," whose language he was completely master of, that Cotton Mather, his friend and class-mate, in his funeral discourse, paid this tribute, " Such services are Pyramids; " adding, " and we usually took it for granted that things would be. fairly done where he had a hand in the doing of them." If but this may be said through the years that are past and those that are to come, of the descendants of the good Secretary, then, indeed, may we take a just pride iu the Rawson name and family.
It is gratifying to be able to trace back, through seven generations, to the beginning of that foremost Colony—leading the long procession of mighty States, since admitted iu all great works and noble thoughts the very hero-Colony of Freedom—the mother of inventions; one ofAPPENDIX.

whose sons summoned the lightning from the sky, and another harnessed it in Jthe-'service of man; one of whom stretched the cable through ocean depths from continent to continent; one of whose names heads the immortal list of the Signers of the Declaration of Independence ; the homex of enterprise and benevolence, of Free Schools and Missionary Systems, of Orators and Statesmen, and Martyrs to the cause of Human Rights. It is a high satisfaction to know that our own direct Ancestors were active participators in the originating causes, were faithful and efficient workers in laying the foundation and guiding the course of the infant Colony.
This subject of genealogical inquiry (in which New England has for the last quarter of a century taken the lead) is interesting in many ways. In a minor sense it is interesting to individuals by bringing up curious incidents and coincidences. As related to the present subject, though not otherwise noticeable here, I may refer to a personal reminiscence. The four-acre lot which Edward Rawson owned and occupied during the thirteen years he lived at Newbury was bounded on the south by a similar lot, owned and occupied by Nicholas Holte, the tanner; and there, with large families, they lived, for ten years, side by side; and so it occurred that, more than two hundred years thereafter, these families came together again in the Centre of New York (an impenetrable wilderness when Rawson and Holte were neighbors at Newbury), in the persons of the present speaker and his wife; and who, till the publication of the Holt genealogy by Mr. Durrie, within the last three years, were quite unconscious of the former ancestral association.
But, in a more general way, the subject of genealogy is worthy of attention. One finds by it that he is not an isolated nomad in the world. He likes to know what his blood has been doing in the past. By it he pursues the ties of family backward and links himself to former generations. Surely, one does not wish to feel that, like Topsy, he merely grew, without knowledge of his origin ; but rather that he can trace the authentic line of his descent frojn early times. It gives one a firmer footing in the world. He feels a stronger right to be here and to assert himself. He stretches out his tendrils to the brothership of the living and the dead. He is supported by the kindred solidarity of the past and the present. We feel it here this day. Though hitherto unknown to each other, yet we know that the same blood is in all our veins. We are of the same kith and kin. Each man may put his hand on the other's shoulder; each feel a pride in the other's success.
This is in no spirit of ostentation; nor is it at all opposed to the democratic theory. Away with that sentimentality which discards all ancestral inquiry. As well might one disclaim his mother and disown his father. It is not necessary that one, to be a true democrat, acknowledging the equality of man before the law, should be without friends, without relatives, without traceable descent.
Nor is it at all opposed to the just satisfaction one may feel in carving out his own success. Pitt could not have felt his renown diminished, but receiving new lustre rather, because Chatham was his father; nor did the fame of John Adams, our second President, dim the honors of the280
RAWSON FAMILY MEMORIAL.
sixth President, his illustrious son. The same holds good in less conspicuous stations.
A man may thus study himself from an outside stand-point. The old philosopher's maxim, " Know thyself," would have been more valuable if he had told us how to do it. Our eyes are made to look outward; but to know ourselves we must look inward. But in our ancestors, from whom we inherit mental and moral traits as well as physical similitudes, we may, as their lives are consummated and recorded, stand off and look at them, and, in the study, learn what our tendencies are, how and where to correct and repress the evil and stimulate the good.
Genealogy and history go hand in hand. They aid and illustrate each other. And, for one, I wish to tender my profound thanks to that Society in Boston—where so many good things originate—under whose auspices this new field of research has been so thoroughly explored; by which records, else lost, have been perpetuated; by which the dusty but valuable manuscripts of many a garret are now in enduring type; by which the New England Families—whose sons have hewed the primeval forest and pushed the wave of population to the Pacific—can touch the responsive link of kinship, east and west, north and south, throughout the continent.
Mr. Jaued Rawson of Milford, Mass., a gentleman over ninety-years old, was the next speaker. Then followed Mr. N. A. Boutelle of Woonsocket, R. I., who urged the importance of the speedy publication of a biography of Edward Raavson and a carefully prepared genealogical record of his descendants.
Pleasant and interesting speeches were also made by Messrs. Herbert Rawson of South Gardner, George S. Rawson of Hudson, and others.SECOND REUNION.
Worcester, Mass., Oct. 1st, 1873.
The second annual Reunion of the descendants of Edward Rawson was held at Horticultural Hall in this city, to-day, and was largely attended by representatives of the family from New England and the Middle States. Numbering in all about two hundred and fifty persons.
It was of a less formal character than the one last year. Tables liberally supplied with refreshments were ranged on each side of the hall, from which the entire "family" were supplied ; after an hour 01* two spent in social conversation, mutual introductions, a comparison of family records, and the-tracing of the relationships. A prominent'representative of the family was Mr. Jared Rawson, of Milford, 91 years of age, who wrote his autograph readily without the use of spectacles, at the frequent requests of his numerous younger relatives.
A copy of the ''Breeches" Bible, brought over by Edward Rawson and containing his family record, and a large collection of legal and other manuscripts bearing his name and those of others of the earlier Rawsons, with portraits of Rebecca, one of the daughters of Edward Rawson and others, were exhibited in the hall, and were objects of continual interest. Little people, bearing the names of Rebecca and Edward, were plentiful, and received the usual compliments awarded to those who bear such honored family names.
The formal meeting was called to order by Mr. R. R. Dodge, of East Sutton, Chairman of the Committee of Arrangements, and the following officers were elected for the ensuing year:—
President—Edmund Grindal Rawson, M. D., of New York city.
Secretary and Treasurer—E. B. Crane, of Worcester.
Committee—R.R.Dodge, Sutton; O. F. Rawson, Worcester; Geo. Rawson, Mention; Liberty Rawson, Holliston; Miss M. G. Leland, Fall River; Geo. S. Rawson, Hudson; Henry C. Rawson, Worcester; N. A. Boutelle, Woonsocket, R. I.; Luther R. Marsh, Esq., N. Y. city.

RAWSON FAMILY MEMORIAL.
Letters regretting enforced absence, and expressing sympathy and interest in the family reunion, from Judge Geo. S. Rawson, of Rochester, N. Y., Rev. T. R. Rawson, of Albany, N. Y., Lutiier R. Marsii, of New York city, L. Q. Rawson, of Fremont, Ohio, Dr. F. H. Brown, Paris, Me. ; James S. Holmes, of Foxcroft, Me.; and others, were read.
Hon. Charles L. Flint, Secretary of the State Board of Agriculture, was called upon to address the family. He said he felt that he had but little right to speak, as he only married a descendant of the original Rawson, but he expressed his pleasure in meeting so many of the relatives of his children, and spoke of the just pride in a noble ancestry, which is an incentive to noble action, but commended the continual effort for self elevation and advancement, rather than an undue reliance on the record of any ancestry. ' He congratulated the family that although Edward Rawson was a prominent and honored public servant, the family since then have ranked with the sterling, upright and vigorous middle class in the community, not tempted to corruption by high place or public honor, but forced to rely on personal virtue and integrity for their record. He commended the public school system of the State as the crowning glory of the men who, like Edward Rawson, wisely taught their sons and daughters here, rather than send them to England to acquire ideas incompatible with the support of the best interests of Republican institutions, and with a few words of warning to the ladies against being drawn away by foreign alliances, Mr. Flint closed his remarks.
Mr. Charles B. Rawson, of Uxbiidge, being called upon, spoke briefly of the importance of securing the genealogical record of the old New England families, for the benefit of posterity, and urged especial effort in the completion of the Raw-son record.
The President spoke briefly, relating his own connection with the Rawson family, and of his personal history. He descended from Grindal Rawson, who settled in East Haddam, Conn. His personal reminiscences were quite interesting.
Mr. R. R. Dodge gave an interesting sketch of the several relics of Edward Rawson on exhibition, with reminiscences of Rebecca Rawson and others, and the connection of the Ra wsons with the Wilson and the Glover families, records of which have been published. He has worked for twenty years to collect and arrange material for a Rawson Memorial, and feels interested to have the work carried on to a completion with a full genealogical record, with a history of the family.
Mr. Liberty Raavson, of Holliston, also favored the idea of a new genealogical record, and spoke of several branches of the family which would claim representation in a new volume.
Mr. Billings, of Quincy, a resident on the original Raavson farm, spoke of the interest attaching to the old locality, and the liability of its passing into other hands, after remaining in the same family for six generations, as but a single representative,APPENDIX.
283
Miss Clarissa Rawson, now resides there. He felt the need of prompt action to secure many valuable incidents in the history of the family, which if not soon collected will be lost.
Mr. O. F. Livingston, of Pittsburg, Pa., spoke of his interest in the family, and of his desire lor the continuation and completion of the record.
Mr. Jared Rawson, of Milford, 91 years of age, gave an account of the finding of a portrait of Rebecca Rawson, behind a chimney in Mendon, by his father, 75 years ago. He also spoke of the portrait of Edward Rawson, and urged the importance of such pictures being dated when made. He alluded to the number of christian ministers iu the family, and said that in all his acquaintance with the family he never knew but one intemperate person. In closing he took an affecting farewell of the family, expressing his desire to meet them all in Heaven.
Mr. Chandler D. Rawson, of Worcester, was called upon. He said he was one of a Rawson family of eighteen children, raised in Vermont, where the family is also connected with the Wilson family. He related several incidents in the lives of his ancestors, and urged the continuance of the family reunions and the completion of the record.
Other brief addresses were made by various members of the family, all agreeing in the importance of the completion of the family record.THIRD REUNION.
Worcester, Sept. 16th, 1874.
The third annual Reunion of the Rawson Family occurred to-day, at Horticultural Hall; although the morning seemed to foreshadow a rainy day, yet about 200 representatives of the family were present.
The occasion was marked by a grand renewal of old-time acquaintances and the formation of as many new ones as was possible in the short time given to the reunion. At 10 o'clock, A. M. the people began to gather in the hall, and an hour later, when the formal exercises of the meeting were to begin, nearly all that had been expected were present. Portraits of a few of the distinguished ancestors of the family were placed in a conspicuous position on the stage, and were the subjects of anxious examination by all present. Prominent among these was a portrait of Edward Rawson, the prime ancestor of the Rawson family in America ; also a picture of his daughter Rebecca. Another portrait was that of the late Edmund G. Rawson, M. D., of New York. In addition to these, Reuben Rawson Dodge of East Sutton, had contributed about fifty photographs of distinguished members of the family, a few of which were of parties now living. Prominent among these were pictures of Governor Rawson of Barbadoes ; Christopher Rawson of London ; and Lieut. Wyatt Rawson, an officer in the British army, who distinguished himself during the Ashantee war. The same person also brought to the hall four original deeds granting land to the first Edward Rawson, together with his family Bible, published in the year 1620.
The meeting was called to order by the President, E. G. Raw-son, M. D., of New York city, after which prayer was offered by Rev. A. G. Bates of Grafton. A song of welcome, composed expressly for the occasion, was then sung by the audience to the tune of "Olmutz," accompanied by music on the piano.APPENDIX.
285
song of welcome.
'Tis now Two Hundred years, Since one of English birth,
Sought out New England's rocky shores, For love of liberal faith.
Rawson was his surname ; Not of any lordly stock,
Such as Old England loves to claim, But firm in God, as rock.
To honor him, our head, We on this day do meet;
Let's welcome all his kindred, That joy may be complete.
His mem'y gives no pain ; His name, exalt it high !
For character without a stain, Must live and never die.
So we'll rejoice in this : That from so pure a blood,
Came out our modest loyal race, Who trust in truth and God.
Judge George Rawson of Rochester, N. Y., expected to have been present and deliver an address, but on account of illness was detained at home. Rev. Wilbur Johnson of Royalston, read a paper prepared for the occasion by Elijah Rawson of Burlington, Vt. The paper was a historical sketch of the Raavson Family, dealing particularly with the descendants of Nathaniel and Betsey Rawson. The children were six in number, as follows : Elijah, now living in Burlington, Vt. ; Obed, killed by the explosion of a powder mill, in 1835, at Canton, Ct. ; Cyrus, drowned in 1850, in Sacramento River, Cal.; Dennis, married to Eliza Copelaud, living at present in Hampton, Ct.; Elizabeth F., wife of Henry Rice, living at present in Barre ; and Mary J. Rawson.
After a piano solo by Miss E. J. Collester of this city, Rev. Thomas Reed Rawson of New York, chaplain of the city penitentiary, was introduced. He was glad to meet so many of his friends by the name of Rawson and congratulated all in the room on their ability to be present on this occasion. He said the name may have been derived from Rosinus, a tutor of Cicero, and had become changed to its present form as it descended from generation to generation. The speaker exhibited the coat of arms of the family with the Latin motto beneath : Laus virtutis actio" which he translated, "Virtue is its own reward." He made an earnest exhortation that all present would make this motto the guiding rule of their lives. He related an incident in the life of Rev. Stephen Rawson, who asked a little boy by the same name what he was going to be when a man. The boy replied that the ministry was to be his profession. The reverend gentleman facetiously replied that he never knew a Rawson to be much of a286
RAWSON FAMILY MEMORIAL.
minister. Stephen lived many years and died revered by all who knew him. Another eminent Rawson was instanced, who sold a bov\ne, and placing the proceeds in his tobacco box, in an unguarded moment swallowed the entire amount. It was a dear chew, but the result was that he gave up the pernicious habit of using the weed.
Music and singing by Mrs. Mary Rawson was next in order, after which Rev. Wilbur Johnson addressed the audience, giving particulars of his own life. Reuben Rawson Dodge next explained to the meeting the object of the gathering, and spoke of the efforts made to get statistics of the family, for the purpose of publishing in book form, a genealogical record-of the family. He said that ample materials had been obtained for this purpose, and he wished that the project might be pushed rapidly forward to completion. At the conclusion of his remarks a recess was announced to give opportunity for dinner, which was served in the hall.
Some delay was experienced in serving the dinner, and it was not until after 3 o'clock that the chairman called the meeting to order. The first thing on the programme was the reading, by the secretary, E. B. Crane of this city, of his report of the meeting held in this city October 1, 1873. He further stated that preliminary measures, looking to the publication of a history of the Rawson family, had been faithfully prosecuted, and out of over a thousand families who had been notified, 700 had been heard from, and have furnished family records. It is thought that the book will contain about 350 pages and over 4000 names of the descendants of the original Rawson. The expense will be between $2 and $3 per copy. Three hundred books have already been ordered. A plan was proposed by E. B. Crane of this city, that all desiring to own a book should sign a paper saying how many copies they would take. This plan was adopted and a large number of orders were received.
Several vacancies having occurred in the Executive Committee, it was reorganized as follows :—
George S. Rawson, Hudson, President; E. B. Crane, Worcester, Secretary and Treasurer; O. F. Rawson, Worcester; J. D. Rawson, Worcester; L. Rawson, Holliston; Miss Mary G. Leland, Fall River; E. J. Rawson, Worcester; H. C. Rawson, Worcester; N. A. Boutelle, Woonsocket, R. I.; Luther R. Marsh, Esq., New York city; R. R. Dodge, Sutton.
A number of communications were received, but no opportunity was afforded to read them. Among these was a lengthy paper from S. A. Dunn of Brigham City, Utah Territory, and letters from George F. Holmes, Esq., of Portland, Me. ; W. N. Reid, Principal of the Clintonian Seminary, Brooklyn, N. Y. ; Hon. Auambert Pond, Saratoga, N. Y., and Edward L. Paris, Esq., New York. Two will be read with interest by such as areAPPENDIX.
287
interested in the family. The first was communicated by Peter C. Bliss of Boston. It was as follows :—
Dr. William Rawson, late Prime Minister of the Argentine Republic (Buenos Ayres), is the son of Dr. Aman Rawson, of some place in New England. The said Dr. Aman was a surgeon in the American navy, and about the time of the war of 1812 he located at Buenos Ayres, where he soon married and resided at San Juan, at the foot of the Andes, near the Chilian boundary. He had two,sons and perhaps other children. Dr. William Rawson, the oldest, Avas liberally educated at the University of Cordova and resides at Buenos Ayres, where he is married and has several children. He has filled the highest political posts in his country, and in talent, popular esteem and genuine goodness of soul, is second to no man in South America. He would have been President long ago if he had wished; the general saying was that he was the best man in many respects, but that he is too good to be President. He speaks English well, with a slight accent; is well acquainted with American literature, especially medical and legal, and takes great interest in learning all he can of liis New England ancestry. His brother, Benjamin Franklin Rawson, is distinguished as an artist, and has painted several historical pictures for the Argentine government.
The old and the young were well represented, and a very enjoyable time was had up to about five o'clock in the afternoon, when the meeting closed with a piano solo by J. Franklin Brown of Worcester, and the singing of the Doxology.
CORRESPONDENCE.
There are some persons who express, and perhaps feel, but little enthusiasm concerning the growth and production of genealogical trees. But there are a great many people who do take deep interest in such matters, and our experience while engaged in collecting materials for this book will justify us in making the statement, that a large majority are found on the side with those who do really enjoy the fruits of ancestral knowledge; and in order that the members of this family may know some of the expressions of sympathy that have come to us, we print the following extracts from letters received. They are but specimens of many others now in the hands of the Secretary:—
Feb., 1872.
" Reuben Rawson Dodge, Esq., " My Dear Sir,
" I was much pleased to receive your letter of the 20th instant and its enclosures, prints of the good Secretary and of his beautiful but unfortunate daughter.288
RAWSON FAMILY MEMORIAL.
"My object iu writing to you was not so much for the purpose of asking information on anjr point as it was to make your acquaintance, and express the great obligation I am under to you for revealing to me an ancestry of which, till I accidentally found your book, I was wholly ignorant. It is now several Summers ago, while spending the time at Newport, R. I., I stepped in at the Redwood Library there, and by the merest chance stumbled on the Bawson Family Memorial; and then, thinking it might possibly have some relation to me, I found the name of my Grandfather and his wife, my Grandmother.
" This immediately kindled my desire, and I visited the Genealogical Rooms, Bromfleld Street, Boston (what a shame they changed the name!), and made the acquaintance of Mr. S. G. Drake and became a member of the society. Mr. Drake thought you were living at Cambridge, and I then from Boston addressed you a letter there, but received no reply. I procured all the books I could, i. e., the 2 vols, of the Genealogical Register, the Bawson Memorial, Coffin's History of Newbury and Leaves from Margaret Smith's Diary, and shall procure the book you mention, History of Plymouth. So you see you have an ardent disciple. I have studied these books till I am quite familiar with all they contain, and have discovered many curious things through the information derived from your labors."

" The letters which puzzled you were those of the Postal District of London in which he was residing.
As I know that he took an interest in the pedigree of the Rawson Family, and possessed considerable information about it, I sent him your former letter, which led to his writing to you direct.
"I have pleasure in complying with your request that I should send you a photograph of myself. It was taken two years ago.

"Sir,
" The Governor of the Windward Islands, Mr. Rawson W. Rawson, has kindly sent me your letters to him relating to the Rawson Family in the United States, and the slip from the Worcester Evening Gazette of Oct'r 1, 1873, describing the very interesting Reunion of the Rawson Family. This to me was specially pleasing, as I have always taken much interest in the genealogical history of our family, being a great collector of all records relating to the several branches. The Governor wishes the slip sent back, so I take the liberty of asking you to kindly procure for me six copies of the Worcester Gazette, if to be procured, and also of the first reunion. I should also like to be allowed to subscribe for two copies of the Memorial of the Family, soon to be printed.
."I once possessed a copy of the publication of 1849, but it has been lent and lost. I suppose the new Memorial will contain all that the first did. It was a most interesting record. I should like much to trace the English branch of the Pilgrim Father.
" In a few weeks a book will be published by Mr. Foster, giving the pedigrees of all the Yorkshire families, and amongst them will be two or three of the Rawson pedigrees. I believe all the Rawsons originated in the West Riding, and that they are the descendants of the " Ravenchels," who in Doomsday Book are the holders of land in the Valley of the Aire.

" Dear Sir,
" I have to thank you very much for the two Worcester Gazettes of Sept'r 16, which you kindly sent me, with the very interesting account of the third gathering of the Rawson Family. I can assure you that it is deeply interesting to us here to read of such a large and influential gathering of our American namesakes, and I thank you much for sending me these papers. Indeed, I am going to presume on your kindness by asking you, if possible, to let me have six more of these Gazettes, as many Rawsons here wish to see them. I wish you could also spare me, at least, one copy of the papers with accounts of the two previous gatherings, as I wish to place them all on record in my Family Books.

"I am to-day in receipt of your Circular, The Rawson Family, the same having been forwarded to me by my Son. I regret that I had not received it at an earlier date, so that I might have had more time to look up data and particulars regarding family history. I now hand you herewith a list from one of my Sons, and will, in a few days—soon as I can get them up—send lists for the rest of my children. I have no recollection of my Grandfather or Grandmother Rawson, theyAPPENDIX.

" I trust you will not close your compilation and put your book to press so early as the 10th inst. If you do it will, of course, exclude my immediate family. My children are desirous of being included. I write now to let you know that I shall, as soon as possible, forward the other lists. Hope you will be able to find out something about my Grandfather Rawson.
" When your book is ready for distribution, shall want one for each of my sons, as well as one for myself. You may send them C. O. D., or I will remit the amount on receipt of books.

" Dear Sir,
" I herewith hand you records of my immediate branch of the Rawson Family, beginning with my Grandfather, and hope it is not too late to be incorporated into the new Rawson Book. If you find anything in it that you cannot understand, let me know and I will be happy to explain. If any links are lacking in our branch, let me know and I will supply the deficiency, if possible. I feel a great interest in your work, and wish I could do more to help you. Judging from my little experience^ it is an arduous undertaking—one in which you deserve the full support of the Family. Would like to do all I can to make this a complete and correct Memorial.
" I very much regret that I was unable to attend the Family Reunion last October, at Worcester, but hope I may attend next year. With many thanks for your efforts in this good cause, and earnestly desiring complete success in the enterprise, hoping all will be prompt in forwarding such information as they have at hand,

The following concerning Edmund Grind a l, Archbishop of Canterbury, furnished by Mr. H. M. Rawson of Providence, R. I., will be read with interest:—
Strype, in his Epistle Dedicatory, says : "I present your Grace with the Life and Actions of one of your glorious predecessors in the chair of Canterbury.
"When the See of York (1568) lay destitute of aPastor, Dr. Hutton, the Dean, wrote to Cecil, the Secretary, suggesting the qualifications the occupant should have : ' that he should be a teacher, because the country was ignorant; a virtuous and godly man, for the country was given to sift such a man's life; a stout and courageous man in God's cause, for the country otherwise would abuse him; and yet a sober and discreet man, lest too much rigorousness should harden the hearts of some that by fair means might be mollified, &c. And such a Bishop likewise as was both learned himself and also loved learning; that that rude and blind country might be furnished with learned preachers.' And all these qualities, he reckoned, centred in Grindal. For, as he added, ' such a man was the Bishop of London known to be."
Edmund Gkindal, the first Bishop of London after Queeu Elizabeth's access to the Crown, Bishop of York and the second Archbishop of Canterbury, was born about 1519, in or near the parish of St. Bees, in Cumberland. In his childhood books were his delight and recreation and the companions of his walks, and, on one occasion, proved the saving of his life; for, as he was once walking in the fields an arrow struck against the book that he had in his breast, which would probably have been fatal had the book not been there. At the usual age he was sent to Magdalen College, Cambridge; whence he afterwards removed to Christ's College and Pembroke Hall. Of this last-named he became Fellow-President and Master. He took the degree of B. A. about 1538; ordained July 4, 1544. While in the University he was looked upon as " one of the ripest wits and learnedst men in Cambridge," and was selected out of the whole University as one of the four disputants against the doctrine of transubstantiation, in public, before King Edward and his visitors.APPENDIX.
293
In 1553 King Edward died, which so changed the hopes of the Reformation that Grindal, with others, exiled themselves to the Continent, going to Strasburg, Frankfort and other places, where he greatly aided Foxe in his Acts and Monuments. He returned in 1558, after the death of Mary, and wag soon engaged by Queen Elizabeth in a revision of the Book of Common Prayer. In the Summer of 1559 he was employed as one of the Commissioners for the Royal Visitation in the North of England, "to require the Oath of Supremacy, to inspect Cathedrals, and the manners of the Clergy, and the like."
December 21, 1559, Grindal, B. D., being 40 years of age, was consecrated to the See of Londou, and installed the 23rd. "Now did Sir Gilbert Dethick, Kn't, principal King of Arms, honor the Bishop with a blazon of arms, to be made use of in all his sealed letters and instruments :
" Ce.ste ascavior, d'or et d' azure escartelle, une croix escartelle d'her mines et d'or. Sur le premiere une Columbe d'azure, sur le seconde une altre d'argent, ut latius in scuto hie depicto apparet; habendum et tenendum eidem Domino Edmundo Episcopo ut Supra. Et ut ipse in his ornatus sit ad ejus honorem inperpetuum."	,
Shortly after his elevation we find him preaching at various times before the Queen, and at St. Paul's Cross; and on one of these occasions, March 3d, 1560, "there was a Mighty Audience, for the people were greedy to hear the gospel." In April, 1564, he received the degree of Doctor in Divinity, and en the 3d of October following preached a Sermon, which was printed under the title as follows :—
" % jierwon at the funeral Jfolemnitie of the mojst high and mighty §?rinre Jerdittitwdujs:, the late <$mperour of mo^t famous Pernor*}, holden in the Cathedral (ffihureh of £aint §?aule in London the third of (Jktofoer, 1564, made Inj the reverend father in (Sod, Edmund (Srindalt, htehopof London"
This is the only sermon of Grindal's now extant. In 1568 the great " Bishop's Bible " was published. Grindal appears to have executed the minor Prophets, that portion of the work bearing his initials, E. L.. In 1570 he was nominated to the Archbishopric of York (then vacant), and Installed June 9th. In November, 1575, Grindal was nominated to the See of Canterbury, elected January 10, following, and confirmed February 15th, thus placing him in the highest eminence in the Church, and also commencing his life of sorrow, for within a year he fell under the displeasure of the Queen, through religious controversies, in which he was undoubtedly right; but in June, 1577, he was confined to his house and sequestered for six months. In 1582 the Archbishop was partially restored to the exercise of his ecclesiastical jurisdiction, but becoming blind " more from grief than age," as Fuller says, Whitgift was nominated as his successor, but refused to enter upon the See as long as Grindal was alive, and the Queen remarked that, "as she had made him so he should die an Archbishop," as he did, July 6th, 1583.294
RAWSON FAMILY MEMORIAL.
" He was buried, according to his desire, in the Chancel of Croydon Church. And on the south side of the Communion table, against the wall, is his effigies in stone, tying at length; his hands in the posture of praying; his eyes have a kind of white in the pupil to denote his blindness; a comely face; along black beard somewhat forked, and somewhat curling; vested in his Doctor's Robes."
He lived and died unmarried.
" He was [Strype] a great and good man, who all along led an unblemished and useful life; of a mild and subdued temper; and friendly disposition; in his deportment courteous and affable; not touchy, nor soon angry; well spoken and easy of access; and that even in his elation ; always obliging in his carriage, loving and grateful to his servants, and of a free and liberal heart."
The Archbishop does not seem to have left much in print; but many, if not most, of his Epistolary remains and Letters have been collected from MSS. in the British Museum, the Inner Temple, Lambeth Palace, Corpus Christi College, &c., by Strype and Nicholson, for the Parker Society, and given us in two volumes.
The poet Spencer frequently quotes Grindal's sayings, as though current at the time, and alludes to his troubles. The name " Algrind " being merely a transposition of the syllables of his name. The passages in his Shepherd's Calendar for May and July show the high estimation in which Grindal was held by his cotemporaries.INDEX I.

Worcester, Mass., July 27th, 1875.
The following obituary notice of Dr. Leland of Fall River, Mass., taken from one of the journals of that city, was this day handed us for publication by Mr. Reuben Rawson Dodge, together with the family record of Mr. Jacob Dodge. Also see record (already printed), page 55, No. 661. It is a source of disappointment to us that we were not able to enter them both in their proper places, but it was out of our power to do so. Mr. Dodge is, no doubt, somewhat excusable for the delay, from the fact that his dwelling was consumed by Are in the latter part of the Winter, about the time when he had been expecting to prepare his record for this book. Since his loss, he has devoted his entire time and energy to preparing for and building a new house, while, at the same time, with the advancement of Spring, his occupation as a farmer was strenuously calling his attention in that direction. Thus it escaped his care until almost too late to be found in this edition.
"OBITUARY.
Death op Hon. Phineas W. Leland.*
It Is with the deepest regret that we record the death of our old friend and honored fellow-citizen, Hon. Phineas Washington Leland, who died at his residence in this city, Saturday afternoon, at half-past four o'clock, aged 71 years. Dr. Leland had been in infirm health for several years, especially since receiving a fall on the steps of his residence, some three years ago. He had at times been a great sufferer, but his tall and stately form was often seen on our streets, when he always received the kindest greetings from his old friends and acquaintances. For several weeks pa6t he had been confined to his bed, and during the latter part of last week suffered Intense pain. He passed away Saturday afternoon^ unconscious of passing events, and leaves a wide circle among the older residents of our city to mourn his loss.
Dr. Leland was born in Grafton, Mass., in 1798. He entered Brown University, Providence, R. I., in 1821, but left college before the expiration of the usual term of four years, and studied medicine with Dr. George C. Shattuck of Boston. He received the degree of M. D. at Bowdoin College, Brunswick, Me., in 1826, and practised his profession for some time at Medfleld, Mass., but abandoned it In 1834, and removed to Fall River, where he received the appoiutment of Collector of Customs from President Jackson. This position he held in all about twenty years, being reappointed by the successive democratic administrations. He retired from this office in 1860, at the beginning of President Lincoln's administration, and since that time has lived in retirement. In the Fall of 1842 Dr. Leland was elected to the State Senate, and on taking his seat in 1843 was elected President of the same, This, we believe, is the only political office he ever held. He retained through life his early affection for the democratic party, and up to a very recent period has been a constant attendant at the conventions of that party.	'

RAWSON FAMILY MEMORIAL.
The excellence of Dr. Leland's personal character, his large public spirit, and above all the high standard of his literary attainments, gave him a marked individual prominence in our coinmuuity. He was always interested in anything that tended to improve the literary taste of the community, and was identified with many plans to effect tills result. He was one of the founders and for many years President of the Fall River Atheneum, and when the Public Library was organized he was elected one of the Trustees, a position which he held till the time of his death. He served on the Building Committee of the City Hall, and delivered tlie address on the occasion of its dedication in 1846. He was always active and ardent in all literary enterprises.
Dr. Lelund was for many years connected with the press, and his writings were distinguished for a peculiar piquancy and brilliancy. He was the editor of the Fall River Patriot, a Journal which was started in 1836, and continued four years. He was also the first editor of the Weekly News, started in 1845, and since his connection with our journal was severed lie has been an occasional and welcome contributor. While a member of the State Senate, lie contributed a series of articles to the Boston Post, entitled "Pen and Ink Sketches from the Gallery of the Senate Chamber," which were widely read and admired. He was always delighted In the study of Indian history, and was thoroughly acquainted with all the Indian lore connected with this part of New England.
Dr. Leland's funeral services will be observed at his residence on "Wednesday, at 11 a. m. He leaves a widow and two daughters, having lost two sons within a few years and an Infant a number of years ago.
Thus passes away an old, trusted and respected citizen, and one whose influence has long been felt in the community. He was one of the stately landmarks that bridged over the present and past, that are dropping off one by one, leaving to younger hands the work they had begun. May others arise to take their places who cau receive an equal share of public confidence, and leave as fair a record when called to leave this world for a realm of nobler triumphs and purer fruition."

The following obituary notice was published in the Christian Witness at her death.
"In Sutton, May 15, Mrs. Elizabeth Dodge, relict of the late Jacob Dodge, aged 94 years, II mos., 10 days. Deceased was born in Sutton, June 5, 1774. She was the daughter of Ebenezer Rawson, who married in 1757 Sarah Chase, daughter of Hon. Samuel Chase of Cheshire, N. H. She was thus an own cousin of Philander Chase, D.D., LL.D., first Bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church in Ohio and Illinois. She was also a lineal descendant In the 5th generation of Edward Rawson, Secretary of Massachusetts Bay Colony, from 1650 to 1686. Through a long life of toil and usefulness, Mrs. Dodge was possessed of great physical strength and activity. Her mind partook of the strength and vigor of her physical organization. She read much, and to the last retained the information she had acquired in early life. She could repeat for hours the works of tlie various authors she had read in youth and middle life. Her whole life was one of quiet, unostentatious piety, and beautifully exemplified the truth of the language of the late Bishop of Down and Connor. 'Prayer Is the peace of our spirit, the stillness of our thoughts, the issue of a quiet mind, the daughter of charity and the sister of meekness.'"

The record of Horace Rawson's family, as printed on page 217, No. 8140, was furnished us by his brother, and supposed to be correct. But July 18, 1875, too late to replace that record, we received the one printed above, and enter it here as a correction.

ERRATA.
The following record was taken from the Slafter Memorial, and we have been unable to obtain anything further from the family :—
Daniel Franklin Rawson, who now r. at Webster, Mass., where he is a farmer, is (we understand) a son of John Rawson, see page 81, No. 1086, consequently grandson of Daniel Rawson [108")], who s. in Oxford, but d. in Webster, in 1843. He was b. Oct. 4, 1819, and m. Mary Eliza Slater, May 1, 1838. Children, all born in Webster:—
1.	JonN Franklin, b. June 10, 1839. He was a member
of Co. G, 51st Mass. Vols, in the late war.
2.	Ira Slater, b. July 15, 1845; r. at Webster; a dealer
in wood and coal.
3.	Saraii Elizabeth, b. May 31, 1847.

5.	Samuel Effing, b. Jan. 18, 1854; d. Jan. 5, 1856.THE REVISED RAWSON FAMILY MEMORIAL.
Any person wishing to purchase this family history, can do so by forwarding the pi'ice of the book (which for a limited time, will be at the very small sum of $2.75), to E. B. Crane, Worcester, Mass.
There has been but a limited number printed, although it is hoped enough to supply the immediate demand, yet it must be thoroughly understood that when this number has been exhausted no books can be obtained without printing them anew.FAMILY KECOKD
