a Congregational minister, was born at Woodstock, Conn., July 19th, 1757. He graduated at Dartmouth College in 1778, and became pastor of the church at Jaffrey, N. H., Dec. 10th, 1782. Here he continued in the pastoral relation until his death, March 17th, 1858. He was an evangelical preacher of more than ordinary ability, and a man of great humor in his social intercourse, but earnestly intent in his great calling. He retained the respect and affection of his people to the last. — Amer. Cong. Year Book (vol. 6, 1859, p. 117).
