Notes |
- In 1797, when scarcely fifteen years old, he was admitted into the freshman
class in Yale College. He was a reputable scholar but owing to a growing
disability that incapacitated him for study and threatened a speedy termination
of his life he returned home in the second term of his senior year and though
invited by the faculty to be present with his class at their examination for
degrees, he chose not to avail himself of the opportunity and in consequence
was never enrolled with them as graduate. Soon after his return he engaged
himself as a clerk to Mr Richards, a merchant in Farmington, with whom he later
became a partner and in 1803 entered into business as a merchant with his
younger brother as a partner.
He was also a justice of the peace, selectman, town clerk, representative of
the town in the Legislature, teacher and instructor of the choir of singers,
member of Missionary, Temperance, Anti-Masonic, and Anti-Slavery Societies and
second vice president of Hartford County Agricultural Society. He was a man
distinguished for his public spirit, of singular benevolence, great practical
wisdom, remarkable firmness, and consistent and steadfast piety. The will of
his first wife dated 2 March 1837 named him as executor: inventory $4, 508.50.
His own will, dated 22 March 1837 was provrd 3 March 1841; inventory $7,231.97.
The house they occupied was inherited by his first wife from her father. He
joined the church in 1824, his first wife in 1816 and his second wife in 1838,

Porter, DD, a pamphlet of 26 pages).
