PREFACE. 
 
 /fvN the twenty-ninth of June, eighteen hundred and ninety-nine, about sixty 
 ** of the descendants of Captain Timothy Buell gathered at the Buell home- 
 stead to celebrate the one hundredth anniversary of the purchase of the farm 
 and the settlement of the family in East Bloomfield. 
 
 Perfect weather and the interest and enthusiasm of the guests made the day 
 a most delightful and inspiring one. 
 
 After the luncheon, which was served under the great trees on the lawn, the 
 guests assembled in the house so famed for its generous hospitality and listened 
 to papers on family history. 
 
 The interest which these awakened led to the publishing of this little pam- 
 phlet, that the family history and traditions might be preserved and handed down to 
 future generations. 
 
 From the many interesting letters of congratulation and reminiscence received 
 from relatives and friends, a few extracts have been selected, showing that 
 throughout the century the homestead has preserved its reputation for hospitality 
 and its influence for good. 
 
 The picture of Captain Timothy Buell is reproduced from a copper plate 
 daguerreotype, the only picture of him known to be in existence. 
 
 As the Buell Book of Genealogy brings the records down only to about 
 eighteen hundred and seventy-two, it was thought advisable to include in this 
 pamphlet the genealogy — as complete as possible — of this branch of the Buell 
 family.

CAPTAIN TIMOTHY BUELL 
 
 AND HIS ANCESTRY. 
 
 JN the Buell book of genealogy, in the year 1270, is found the first recorded 
 knowledge of our "ancient and honorable family." And we of these democratic 
 days are filled with pride to find that so many of our ancestors were people of 
 high degree, and men of renown in both church and state, who helped make the 
 world's history. 
 
 The family ramifications extended through all the countries of Europe, result- 
 ing in thirty-eight renderings of the name. There have beer! Lords and Ladies of 
 Buell in France, with their castles, family portraits, and coats of arms. In Spain, a 
 Benedictine monk, Bernardo Buell, was appointed by the Pope vicar apostolic to the 
 new world, and went with Columbus on his second voyage to Hispaniola. 
 
 We find in Austria a statesman, Von Buell, ambassador to St. Petersburgh 
 and London, and afterward prime minister. 
 
 The Buells were connected in various ways with the courts of kings, espe- 
 cially' in England. And during the reigns of Henry III. and the first three Edwards, 
 from 1270 to 1375, they held many offices of honor and trust. 
 
 In 1270 William de Burle witnessed a charter granted by King Henry III. for 
 the protection of ambassadors. In 1327 the king sent a petition to the Court of 
 Rome by "our beloved Walter de Burle." In 1362 was granted a charter of protec- 
 tion to John Buell "to transport goods from Scotland into England in safety." In 
 1373 the king by letters patent appointed John de Burle to be commander of Calais 
 in France with the title of Captain of Calais, and with supreme power both civil 
 and criminal, and authorized to conclude a truce with the envoys of Charles, King 
 of France. Henry III. also gave power of attorney to certain eminent persons to 
 confirm the acts and increase the power of John de Burle of Calais " concerning the 
 power to treat of peace." 
 
 In the " Rolls of the Hundreds" of England made by command of his majesty 
 George III. in 1812, is contained an account of members of the Buell family as 
 
holding manors and public offices in many of the counties of England. It is inter- 
 esting to remember that our family had to do with the coronation of Kings, the 
 consecration of bishops, the triumph of victors, the marriages, and the burials of the 
 great ones of the earth. 
 
 Some of them were knights in armor going forth to battle ; some, it may be 
 martyrs, singing their way into glory. The shadow, at least, of their greatness and 
 their goodness falls on their descendants. 
 
 We read in ancient records that the family of Buell was in such note in 
 England that one Robert Buell was made knight of the shire for Huntingdonshire, 
 under Henry IV. in 1410, and, descending two hundred years, through a line of 
 knights and baronets, to 1610, there was born in Chesterton, Huntingdonshire, 
 England, one William Buell, the common ancestor of all of that name in America. 
 
 About this time there began to break away from the Church of England large 
 numbers of people who could not conform to its ceremonies nor subscribe to its 
 tenets. 
 
 Being Dissenters, or Non-Conformists, they came out from society and the 
 church. These were called Puritans, in both Old and New England. 
 
 This independent movement was followed by religious persecution; and when 
 William Buell was 20 years of age this persecution raged so fiercely under Arch- 
 bishop Laud that to save their lives these religious enthusiasts were obliged to flee 
 from their own country. William Buell joined a company emigrating to America 
 under the leadership of Rev. John Wareham. They sailed from Plymouth, Eng- 
 land, March 30, 1630, in the ship Mary and John, and landed at Nantasket, Boston 
 Bay, the 30th of May. 
 
 William then settled at Dorchester, Mass. Five years later he became a 
 pioneer and proprietor in the new settlement at Windsor, Conn. His name is said 
 to be on the first distribution of lands at that place. Ten years from his arrival in 
 America he was " married to Mary" at Windsor, and here they both lived and 
 died. William Buell was a man of property, and of good position in society. Of 
 his character it is sufficient to know that he belonged to the great body of men 
 of whom it is written, "They were the most remarkable the world ever pos- 
 sessed," and "The men to whom America owes the preservation of civil and 
 religious liberty." Samuel, first child of Wiiliam Buell, was born at Windsor. 
 On reaching man's estate he moved down the Connecticut river and became 
 
one of the founders of Killingsworth. He was a large landowner and a man 
 of influence and generous means. He had twelve children, seven of whom 
 were sons. He had offices of honor and was named on the town records as a 
 " gentleman." Deacon John Buell, son of Samuel, born at Killingsworth, moved to 
 Lebanon, Conn. In an ancient manuscript book there is a copy of a resolution of 
 the General Assembly relative to the settlement of Litchfield, the Indian name of 
 which was Bantam. This resolution was in answer to a petition of John Buell and 
 others, praying liberty under committees appointed by the towns of Hartford to 
 settle a town ; said town to be known as Litchfield. He afterward became one of 
 the most active promoters of the new settlement in the wilderness of Bantam, and 
 was one of the first Deacons of the church. When the adjoining township of 
 Goshen was laid off into shares he bid off one share for 150 pounds, and the first 
 meeting of the proprietors was held at his house. We are told that he used his 
 money freely in relieving the wants of others. During one of the hard winters — 
 supposed to be about 1740, a time of great and general scarcity — there came a man 
 from the neighboring town of Cornwall whose family was destitute of bread. 
 Entering the door the stranger said : "Deacon Buell, have you any grain?" "Yes, 
 I have some." " Well, if you will let me have some, I will pay you for it. We are 
 in great want." "Have you any money?" " Yes, a little." "Here," said Dea- 
 con Buell, taking him to the door and pointing to a house not far off ; " go to that 
 man and you can get some grain for money, and not without money. Mine 1 want 
 to keep for people who have no money." 
 
 In the west burying-ground at Litchfield are found these inscriptions : " Here 
 lies interred the body of John Buell, Esquire, who lived in the office of Deacon in 
 the Church at Litchfield, and departed this life April 9th, 1746, in the 75th year of 
 his age." " Here lies the body of Mrs. Mary, wife of Deacon John Buell. She 
 died Nov. 4th, 1768, aged 90, having had 13 children, 101 grandchildren, 274 great 
 grandchildren, and 22 great-great-grandchildren, 336 of whom were living at her 
 death." 
 
 Captain Jonathan Buell, son of Deacon John, was one of the pioneers of 
 Goshen. It was a time of large families and continued emigration from England. 
 The need of more land was very urgent. 
 
 Capt. Jonathan Buell with two others were appointed by the Governor of 
 
8 
 
 His Majesty's English colony in Connecticut to lay out five townships, one on the 
 north side of Litchfield, to be called Goshen. 
 
 Captain Jonathan Buell's red house was intended to be built in Goshen, but 
 the dividing line between Litchfield and Goshen was found to pass directly 
 through it. 
 
 Captain and Deacon Timothy Buell, son of Jonathan, was born at Goshen 
 1757- We first make his acquaintance amid the stirring scenes of the Revolutionary 
 War. Among the first companies enlisted for this war was one of sixty men from 
 Goshen, including such familiar names as Oliver Norton, Cyprian Collins, John 
 Doud, William Beach, Timothy Buell, all of whom later settled in Bloomfield, N. Y. 
 This company formed a part of Gen. Wadsworth's brigade. Its first act was to 
 march in haste to secure Fort Ticonderoga and Crown Point from recapture by the 
 British. It was also engaged in the campaign of '76 in New York and Long Island ; 
 and was quartered for several weeks in a large brick house near the Battery in New 
 York. While there, under the command of General Washington, the Declaration 
 of Independence was published, and the army was called out by brigades to hear it 
 read. These and other facts were found in a diary kept by the Captain of his 
 company, to which Timothy Buell made additions. Long years afterward, at the 
 age of 72, when living in this house he built in Bloomfield, where we are gathered 
 to-day, he related many interesting personal experiences of his army life, describing 
 Washington's retreat from New York, the surrender of Burgoyne, and the return 
 home of the Goshen company in December, 1776. Timothy Buell was the last 
 surviving member of this company. This sketch of his life is taken from the 
 " History of Goshen." 
 
 About two months ago a package of papers was found in one of those bureau 
 drawers, which seem always to have been the keeping-place of ancient treasures. 
 For many years these papers had been in the possession of Mrs. Olive Buell 
 Munson. Among deeds and conveyances of land to and from Timothy Buell, in 
 both Goshen and Bloomfield, there were two documents stamped with the seal of 
 the State of Connecticut, whereby Timothy Buell, "gentleman," recommended by 
 the General Assembly, was appointed by the Captain General and Commander- 
 in-Chief in and over the State of Connecticut, in America, to be Lieutenant of the 
 Sixth Company or Train Band in the Twenty-seventh Regiment of Militia in said 
 State, November, 1790 ; and in May, 1794, he was made Captain of the Fourth 
 
Company of Militia in the Thirty-fifth Regiment of said State. November 13, 1777, 
 one year after leaving the army and when but 20 years of age, he married Olive, 
 youngest daughter of Col. Ebenezer Norton, of Goshen. Twenty-two years later, 
 Feb. 1st, 1799, he arrived with his family in Bloomfield, N. Y. What lured him 
 from the land of Goshen, where he dwelt surrounded by friends, and bound by ties 
 of kinship and association ? Did he hear that mysterious call that echoed through 
 forests, over hilltops, streams and meadows, drawing hundreds of families from the 
 east to the then far west of Western New York? In 1789 a company in Berkshire, 
 Mass., purchased Bloomfield from Phelps and Gorham, and the first settlers arrived. 
 The small colony brought their farming utensils and household goods by the waters 
 of the Mohawk, Wood Creek, Oneida Lake, and Seneca River to Canandaigua. 
 A great portion of the distance their cattle were driven through the wilderness, with 
 no other path than an Indian trail. The next year another small company came, 
 and the township numbered ten families. Ten years from the first settlement came 
 Capt. Timothy Buell with his wife, Olive Norton, and their children — Lucy, Eunice, 
 Jonathan, Theron, Timothy and Eben. We must imagine that wearisome journey 
 of three weeks in heavy sleighs drawn by oxen through winter snows. How 
 eagerly watched for were the signs of human habitation as night closed in. How 
 comforting the sight of blazing fires on hearthstones as the hospitable doors of the 
 new settlers opened wide to strangers. 
 
 Tradition and fact are such good friends we need not question if the little 
 family of emigrants made their final stopping place at the home of Joel Steele, an 
 old Goshen neighbor. This Joel Steele had come into the country with an axe on 
 his shoulder and 50 cents in his pocket, taken up a thousand acres of land, pros- 
 pered, and built and occupied the house across the road from this. There is a 
 memory that he wrote to Capt. Buell to come here and take his choice of land on 
 either side of the road. Certain it is, he made what the family have always consid- 
 ered a happy selection of location, and the two families lived side by side in great 
 friendliness and enjoyment of each other. 
 
 This has now brought us to the beginning of the century, the close of which 
 we celebrate to-day. As we look back over the past one hundred years a thousand 
 pictures come floating by— dim, shadowy, vague. But as we focus the glass of 
 memory the outlines of many become distinct, the lights and shadows group them- 
 selves, and growing into life before us are the very scenes in which our forefathers 
 
lived their days— the very forms and faces of those we hold in reverent remem- 
 brance. 
 
 Capt. Buell purchased of Joel Steele ioo acres of land Sept. 4, i799> f° r 
 which he paid $1,400; but this land overran the original measure by 30 acres. Later 
 there were added to the farm 50 acres purchased from Mr. Sage, whose family 
 graves to the number of nineteen still remain on the land. This last purchase was 
 paid for from the first crop of wheat. 
 
 Capt. Buell had a blacksmith shop, which .stood on the northwest corner of 
 the present lawn. At first this shop must have been quite primitive, for a man 
 passing through Phelps and inquiring for the nearest blacksmith shop was told : 
 " You are in the shop now, but the anvil is 13 miles farther west." Here he shod 
 oxen and mended log chains which were in constant use, drawing timbers for 
 building. In this shop stood the anvil which is still in use on the farm, and for 
 which he paid $1,100 in Government scrip, issued by the Colonial Government 
 after the war. It is believed he brought the anvil from Connecticut. The black- 
 smith shop was later moved to the woods, where it is still used as a sap-house. 
 
 This road was the great thoroughfare between Albany and Buffalo. One 
 day a heavy Pennsylvania wagon drawn by six horses stopped at the tavern of Joel 
 Steele. The owner of the teams brought over some chains to be mended. He was 
 in ill temper over his troubles in the March mud, and swore roundly. Capt. Buell 
 reproved him for his profanity, when the man called out to his men across the way: 
 "You musn't swear when you come over here; they are all pious here." The 
 Captain tossed the chains out of his shop, saying he would not mend them, and it 
 was only after very humble apologies on the part of the stranger that the work was 
 done. He was remarkable for his strictness in keeping the Sabbath, which in those 
 days commenced the evening before, and reproved a neighbor for calling Saturday 
 night. 
 
 No one remembers who built the first house occupied by the family. It stood 
 a little east of the present location. The first floor contained four square rooms, 
 the two front being bedrooms in a lean-to. The old garden was surrounded by a 
 high stone wall. 
 
 The present house was built in 1816. The timbers were hewn from the 
 woods on the farm, and the carpenter work was done by Capt. Buell's son, Theron. 
 
That year is memorable for its cold summer, there being frost every month, and 
 snow in July. 
 
 Capt. Buell's wife, Olive Norton, died in 1815, and the next year, when the 
 house was built, he married Charity Mills Norton, the widow of his first wife's 
 brother, Ebenezer Norton. 
 
 It is remembered that when the work and care of the farm were transferred to 
 the hands of his son, Timothy junior, Capt. Timothy and wife made visits to their 
 kinspeople and friends in Goshen, making the journey to and fro at their leisure, 
 riding comfortably in a spring wagon. It was while on a visit to her daughter, 
 Mrs. Horsford, at Moscow, Livingston County, that the second wife died, and was 
 brought home for burial. During the last ten years of his life he was an invalid, 
 and as the powers of mind and body failed he was ministered to by his son Timothy 
 and wife. He became a Deacon of the church in 1808, during the early years of his 
 life in BloomfielJ. In a historical discourse by Dr. Henry Kendall in 1857, Deacon 
 Buell is spoken of as one of the "pillars of the church," "an ardent lover and 
 generous patron of every work of Christian benevolence.'' He entered into rest 
 January, 1850, at the age of 92, and was laid in the plot of ground he purchased of 
 Daniel Rice, known as the Rice Burying Ground, that holds so many of his family 
 and relatives. Of Timothy, Jr., son of Capt. Timothy, another paper has been 
 written. Of Charles, son of Timothy, Jr., the present possessor of this inheritance 
 of a hundred years, a history may some day be written. 
 
 It seems unfair to sketch the lives of all the fathers of the House of Buell and 
 make no mention of the mothers. In November, 1777, Capt. Timothy Buell mar- 
 ried Olive, daughter of Col. Ebenezer Norton, of Goshen. The Nortons settled 
 at Guilford, Conn., in 1639, an d na d become a numerous and prominent -family, 
 and the records show 30 intermarriages between the Buells and Nortons. Col. 
 Ebenezer Norton was an important man in both community and state. He was for 
 twenty-two successive terms a member of the Colonial Legislature, and held other 
 offices of honor. Two of his daughters married two Buell brothers, Timothy and 
 Jonathan; another became the wife of John Doud. Olive Norton, who died, was 
 the mother of the six children already mentioned— Lucy, Eunice, Jonathan, Theron, 
 Timothy and Eben Norton. She died in Bloomfield in 1815. The following year 
 Capt. Timothy married, at Goshen, Charity Mills, widow of Ebenezer Norton, Jr., 
 the brother of his first wife. One week previous to this wedding occurred that of 
 
12 
 
 her daughter, Maria Norton, and Jedediah Horsford, of Moscow. From this time 
 many pleasant visits were exchanged between the two families at Bloomfield and 
 Moscow. 
 
 As stated, Col. Ebenezer's daughter, Elizabeth, married John Doud. His 
 daughter, Aurelia Doud, married Daniel Rice, and his daughters, Sally and Lucy 
 Rice, married, respectively, Jonathan and Timothy Buell, Jr., sons of Capt. 
 Timothy. We first hear of Lucy Rice when at the age of seven she made the long 
 journey from Goshen to Bloomfield, lying across some bags of grain, because she 
 was ill. Lucy was following the little boy, Timothy, who at the age of eight years 
 took the same journey two years before. Among the memories of Lucy's child- 
 hood is this incident. She went out one day a little way from the house into a 
 clearing filled with stumps. Beside one of these sat a bear holding a cub. The 
 child, supposing it a colored woman and her baby, patted the little one on the 
 head, and was frightened only when the old bear showed her teeth. 
 
 Timothy Buell and Lucy made their wedding journey to Goshen carrying 
 their wardrobe in a little hair trunk and riding in a spring wagon, the first seen on 
 the road, and attracting great admiration. After that journey Lucy is remembered 
 as a home-keeper and home-lover. The care of the family fell quickly into her 
 hands and there was much work to be done in those days. There was the yearly 
 barrel of boiled cider apple sauce to be made, the year's supply of candles to be 
 dipped. There was wool to be carded and spun. Some of the yarn to be dipped in 
 the dyes of indigo-blue, butternut-brown, and madder red — to be woven into beau- 
 tiful coverlids and knit into mittens and stockings. There was flax to be hetch- 
 elled and spun, and the hum of spinning wheels was heard early and late. Until 
 recent years an old loom has stood in the attic. What stories it could have told 
 of those by-gone times when the patient weaver sat, throwing her shuttle back and 
 forth, weaving the flannel for blankets and clothing, weaving the linen for sheets, 
 pillow-cases, straw bedticks, towels, and bags for grain. It could have been said 
 of her, "She seeketh wool and flax, and worketh diligently with her hands; she 
 layeth her hands to the distaff, and her hands hold the spindle." The housekeepers 
 of to-day would be sadly perplexed to meet the unexpected demands upon their 
 resources that came to her. One cold day after the War of 1812 her kitchen 
 swarmed with soldiers, who were encamped in the field west of this house and came 
 in to get warm. They crowded into the dining-room, and presently her husband's 
 
13 
 
 watch, which hung over the fireplace, was missing, and as they went out through 
 the wood-house they took one of her cheeses from a cupboard standing there. As 
 the officers were in the tavern across the way, matters were speedily righted and 
 the offenders soundly whipped. 
 
 As this country was the home of the Seneca Indians — a numerous and well- 
 established people, with thriving villages, and burying-places for their dead— it was 
 not strange that as the invading white men occupied the fields they had cleared and 
 cultivated, many lingered near their old hunting grounds and dwelling-places, even 
 as late as 1856. Many a time they came to this house for food and shelter. Many 
 a night the family retired to its slumbers with a row of dusky Indians stretched on 
 the kitchen floor, their feet toward the glowing coals on the broad hearth. They 
 were fond of prowling about. One morning this mother, starting to go down 
 cellar, met on the stairs two huge, grinning Indians. She was always good to 
 these wanderers, and they were very friendly. She was good to all comers under 
 all circumstances. 
 
 When the family bread was baked in iron kettles on the hearth, covered with 
 hot coals and ashes, which the baker must often renew, standing before a large 
 fire — when this bread was prepared for hungry children and hard-working men, it 
 meant something to pass out the great loaves, with smiling readiness, at the call of 
 travelers in need on their way to found homes in the new country. She always 
 said she knew what the need meant. She knew the law of kindness, this wise 
 woman, who made for herself a warm place in the hearts of all who came within her 
 influence. But with all her gentleness, she also knew how to assert herself at the 
 proper time. During the building of this house her cares were manifold. Besides 
 providing food for many workmen she brewed for them a barrel of beer twice a 
 week. This often kept her up far into the night, when with her foot upon the 
 cradle (which has rocked the babies of three generations), she embroidered delicate 
 laces to keep herself awake. One time her beer failed to brew in the proper man- 
 ner. In her fatigue and disappointment she declared she would try once more, and 
 if it did not come right she would never make another barrel — and she never did. 
 
 Once a year a woman skilled in tailoring came to the house to make suits of 
 clothing and great coats for men and boys. These were made of "fulled cloth" 
 woven in the mill down by the creek on this farm. 
 
 Once a year old John Brown came to make the family boots and shoes. He 
 
14 
 
 had a seat by the east window in the kitchen, where with his work bench covered 
 with lasts, leather, awls, waxed thread and shoe pegs, he cut, sewed, and hammered, 
 to the great delight of the children. The children? Yes; Olive, Frederick, Caro- 
 line, Augustus, Alice, Charles, Ellen, John. 
 
 The hospitality of this mother of whom we write was unfailing. In those 
 days of large families and scant social privileges, visiting had a meaning it has lost 
 in these days. In winter sleigh loads and in summer wagon loads of relatives and 
 friends would come to " spend the day." The women with their children and 
 knitting work, the men to compare notes on church, political, and farm matters. 
 What cheer was there ! What exchange of loving sympathy in each other's joys 
 and sorrows, losses and gains ! Sometimes a pieced bed cover was tacked to the 
 quilting frames, placed on chair-backs before a blazing fire in the old dining-room. 
 The pattern for quilting was snapped on with cord and chalk. Then needles in 
 swift-moving fingers kept time to the sound of pleasant talk. These days of visit- 
 ing were filled with delight to the children, and are remembered by many to this 
 day. A large circle of nieces and nephews from the Rice, Norton and Buell families 
 always met a welcome from "Aunt Lucy." And later on the grandchildren. How 
 they came flocking to the old home, to family gatherings, to Thanksgiving dinners, 
 long to be remembered. To some of them this place was like a second home. 
 There are old men and women who still speak of her kindness and the happy child- 
 hood memories they retain of this home as she made it in those years long gone by. 
 These, with her three living children, " rise up and call her blessed." 
 
 The last picture in this kaleidoscopic sketch of the family of Buell during 
 the past century is clear before us in the sunshine of this June day. It is filled 
 with life and color. Representatives of four generations crowd the canvas— all 
 linked by ties of kindred with the six generations of whom we have written. 
 Crossing the line that bounds the limitations of this life— lifting the veil between 
 the seen and the unseen — what radiant vision might we see ! 
 
 From the families connected with this home, founded one hundred years ago, 
 there have been continually passing out emigrants to a " better country — even a 
 heavenly." They have crossed the river we call Death, put on the robes of their 
 immortality, and with joyful hallelujahs gone up the shining way that leads to the 
 gates of the city "whose builder and maker is God." The last of our number 
 whose feet entered the deep waters of this river were Frederick Munson and the 
 
15 
 
 beloved Mrs. Lottie Steele Elton. The echo of their farewells is still heard. The 
 garments of their mortality have scarce faded from our sight, but they have entered 
 into the " joy of their Lord." Their manifold good deeds and the gracious sweet- 
 ness of their lives, are they not chronicled in the hearts of all who knew them.

 East Bloomfield, June twenty-ninth, 1899. 
 
TIMOTHY BUELL, JR. 
 
 nilMOTHY BUELL, JR., was born in Goshen, Connecticut, in 1791. He was 
 one of six children, five of whom lived to a good old age, one dying in 
 middle life. One brother and two sisters died older than he, and two brothers 
 younger. 
 
 He came to 'this town when eight years old, and lived the remainder of his 
 life on this farm. 
 
 In 1814 he was united in marriage to Lucy Rice, daughter of Daniel Rice 
 and Aurelia Dowd. and for fifty-nine years they lived happily together, having 
 born unto them nine children. One died in infancy; one son, the youngest, 
 served in the Civil War three years; then, his term of enlistment having expired, 
 re-enlisted, and a few months later, having been taken prisoner at Raleigh, 
 North Carolina, died at Andersonville Prison. Of the remaining seven three are 
 living to-day. 
 
 Some time after his marriage — just when I have been unable to ascertain — 
 father commenced working grandfather's farm on shares, rendering to him one- 
 third. 
 
 This arrangement lasted until grandfather's death, in 1850, when, by paying 
 off the heirs, it came into his possession. 
 
 Father had previously purchased fifty-eight acres on the south and ninety- 
 five acres on the west, all of which remains in the family. The fifty-eight acres 
 were purchased for thirty-five dollars an acre. The most of it, sowed to wheat 
 the following season, yielded a crop of thirty-five bushels to the acre, which sold 
 at $1.25 a bushel and delivered at Joel Steele's mill not a quarter of a mile from 
 here, gave an experience in farming somewhat different from what one would be 
 likely to meet with in these days. 
 
 Unobtrusive and retiring, father was universally honored and respected by 
 all who knew him. When I was about twenty years old, a man of middle age 
 then living across the road, who knew father well, having formerly worked for 
 him a good deal, and living in the family in his boyhood, was talking with me 
 
i8 
 
 one day about father. He said: " If you make half as much of a man as your 
 father, you will do pretty well ;"— his manner conveying the impression that he 
 thought it extremely doubtful. 
 
 During the war with England in 1812 the British forces crossed Niagara 
 River at Black Rock and burnt the village of Buffalo. Father, then a young man 
 of twenty or thereabouts, was sent with a wagon-load of supplies (there being 
 no other means of transportation) to our army confronting the enemy at that place. 
 The English, however, having accomplished their purpose, retreated across the 
 river as quickly as they came. Thereupon a change of base was made, and 
 father was stopped at Batavia, and from there returned home. That ended his 
 personal experience in connection with the war of 1812. 
 
 In after years he was made captain of militia. In my boyhood I often heard 
 him called Captain by men of his own age. 
 
 In rummaging in the garret one day I found a hat adorned with feathers of 
 various colors, which I suppose he wore at company and general trainings which 
 took place in the late summer and early autumn of every year. I recollect that 
 my military ardor was greatly fired by a sight of this hat. 
 
 Father was in politics a Whig, the Whig party being a successor of the 
 Federal party of an earlier day. 
 
 When in the prime of life he was elected Supervisor of the town for seven 
 successive years. The eighth time he was a candidate of his party, but was 
 defeated by his Democratic opponent, Philo Hamlin, by a majority of one vote. 
 
 Afterwards he was one of three assemblymen sent from this county to the 
 State Legislature. I venture to say that these honors were entirely unsolicited 
 on his part. I don't believe he ever asked a man for a single vote. In those 
 days the office sought the man, not the man the office, according to the modern 
 style. 
 
 Father was greatly opposed to secret societies, having passed through the 
 intense excitement which followed the abduction and supposed putting to death 
 of Morgan, one of the Masonic fraternity, who had revealed some of the secrets 
 of the Order. 
 
 These events shook Western New York to its foundations, dividing the 
 people into two bitterly opposing factions. During the campaign, which resulted 
 in his election to the State Legislature, I recollect he came home one night and 
 
19 
 
 said that it was possible he would lose the election through a mistake in the 
 printing of ballots, as a part of them, printed at Geneva and used in the eastern 
 part of the county, had left out the word "Jr.'' However, there were enough of 
 the others to elect by a majority of two or three hundred. 
 
 Father was eminently just and considerate in his treatment of every member 
 of his large family. He was kind and even-tempered under all circumstances. 1 
 recollect some one (I think a man who had worked for him a good deal) said to 
 me, ''What church does your father belong to?'' and when I told him he wasn't 
 a church member he was greatly surprised. Father afterwards, when over sixty 
 years of age, joined the East Bloomfield Congregational Church. He thereupon 
 set up a family altar for morning and evening worship, which was not allowed to 
 fall down while strength remained. This, you may imagine, was not an easy 
 thing to do at his time of life, and in the presence of a large and grown-up family. 
 It illustrated his habit of doing whatever he thought was right at whatever cost. 
 
 His treatment of mother impressed me in my early days. Every wish of 
 hers he tried to gratify with never a harsh or impatient word between them. I was 
 the more impressed as 1 had seen enough of the outside world to know that this 
 was not the case in every family. 
 
 I think I have said enough to justify me in calling this a noble character, and 
 us, his children, in revering his memory and that of the sainted mother, both of 
 whom departed this life for mansions prepared for them, in January, '73, within 
 twelve days of each other, AUGUSTUS BUELL. 
 
JONATHAN BUELL. 
 
 When the ancestor, whose settlement in East Bloomfield we are gathered to 
 celebrate to-day, set out from Goshen, Conn., to seek his new home in the " Gene- 
 see Country," he brought with him his wife and six children. Of the children the 
 first and second were daughters, and the other four sons, of whom the eldest, 
 Jonathan, was my grandfather. 
 
 When fully grown he was a man of large size and great strength, so it is 
 likely that, at fifteen years, the age which he had reached when he made the 
 journey, he must have been almost equal to doing a man's work, and to have 
 taken his share of the heavy labor involved in forcing a winter way through the 
 wilderness. He used to tell of the experience, which must have been one of rare 
 interest to a hardy boy of his age,— an interest that probably in his mind more than 
 offset the toil that it involved. 
 
 With the exception of a brief time spent in Ohio, my grandfather passed the 
 remainder of his life in East Bloomfield, dying April 15, 1865. It would have 
 been difficult for anyone to grow up with a town, as he did, knowing all the 
 original settlers, every new-comer and every child that was born, without having 
 a keen interest in the place and its people; for one of the disposition of Jonathan 
 Buell it would have been impossible. He was a man of a sympathetic kindness 
 and cordiality, which made the interest of others his own. He formed friendships 
 with fortunate readiness, and kept them until death intervened to end them. The 
 impression that is among the strongest of my memories of him is the affectionate 
 way in which he constantly spoke of Bloomfield and Bloomfield folk, as if they 
 were all of his kin, as so many of them were. 
 
 Grandfather had a keen sense of humor, and his face lighted up with ready 
 appreciation at a bright remark or funny story. His eyes had a twinkle that was 
 irresistible, and it is pleasant to be able to say that 1 remember him most distinctly 
 by his smile. He had a remarkable memory, and his mind was stored with endless 
 incidents of his long life, which he told in a graphic fashion that made his society 
 a constant delight. 
 
When Jonathan Buell was a boy there was abundant game in and about East 
 Bloomfield, and he grew up a keen sportsman, one who felt that he was not doing 
 his rifle credit if he failed to strike a squirrel in the head. 1 remember the fasci- 
 nated interest with which, as a boy, 1 listened to his stories of field and stream, 
 with regretful wishes that I might have lived in so, good a time. 
 
 It is said that a happy life has no history, and it is equally true that the 
 life of a prosperous farmer gives one but little that is salient in the way of inci- 
 dent. Jonathan Buell's even life upon the farm was broken only twice, when he 
 held political office. He was elected Sheriff of Ontario county in November, 1828, 
 and served during the three very interesting years when the anti-Masonic excite- 
 ment, due to the disappearance of Morgan, was at its height. During this time he 
 had in his custody several prominent persons who were under arrest for complicity 
 in that affair. 
 
 In November, 1837, he was elected to the Assembly of the State, taking his 
 seat January 1 following. He served but one term, but this sufficed for the forming 
 of many interesting friendships, one of the most valued being that of Thurlow 
 Weed. 
 
 My grandfather was born in Goshen, Conn., October 11, 1784. April 27, 1807, 
 he married, at East Bloomfield, Sally Rice, who died before my birth, but who, 
 judging by my father's tireless praises, must have been a beautiful woman, in body 
 and mind. His brother, Timothy, married Lucy Rice, sister of Sally, and a no less 
 lovely character. 
 
 Of the six children by my grandfather's marriage my father was the eldest, 
 and Pomeroy Baldwin and Henry followed in turn. Then came Ann, who died 
 unmarried, and, of all the children, but two, Mary Saxton Wilson and Emily Buell 
 Wilson, are now living. 
 
 My grandmother died at East Bloomfield, November 29, 1845, aged fifty-six 
 years. Later Mr. Buell married Caroline B. Robinson, by whom he had no chil- 
 dren. After this second marriage he removed to Ohio, and lived, in turn, at 
 Willoughby and Painesville, but returned to this town and, as I have said, died 
 here. JESSE W. BUELL, M. D. 
 
FROM LETTER OF 
 JULIA HORSFORD NORTON, LOCKPORT, N. Y. 
 
 . . . I have seldom felt so serious a twinge of disappointment as it costs 
 me to finally relinquish the hope and expectation of once more making a pilgrimage 
 to the Mecca of my childhood and once more greeting the very few who used to 
 greet me there in the long ago days who still remain this side of the last crossing. 
 
 As I send my regrets I am reminded that my first bit of expistolary cor- 
 respondence was directed to the very same point; although it was more than 
 three-quarters of a century ago, it is still fresh in mind and began thus : 
 "Dear grandma, I've got ma's pen, 
 To tell you what a child I've been;'' 
 And after relating what a good and pretty baby I was and what wonderful things I 
 did by way of 
 
 " Pulling myself up by the chairs, 
 And tending to all my own affairs, 
 And how, when Eben says his prayers, 
 I'm pulling at Eliza's hairs ;" 
 And finally closes with — 
 
 " Dear grandma, Eliza sends her love to you 
 And grandpa — so does Eben, too ; i 
 We'll come to see you when we can. 
 So good-bye, grandma, Julia Ann." 
 This promised visit, I'm sure, must have been soon made and often repeated, 
 as the early recollections of my childhood are so pleasantly connected with my 
 visits to my dear grandparents and the dear cousins there. 
 
 Lovely visions of the old homestead come teeming back, with grandpa and 
 grandma, and I on a stool near them, before the beautiful wood fire in the open 
 fire-place; and then the larger fire-place, with its great roaring fires in Uncle 
 Timothy's sitting-room, and he at the right-hand corner of it with his inseparable 
 book or newspaper,— and dear Aunt Lucy, moving about so gently, and so carefully 
 
23 
 
 watchful for the comfort of her family. Oh, Aunt Lucy! Never such pies and 
 cookies as she knew how to make, and never another pantry so well stocked with 
 good things for hungry children ! Recollection swiftly takes me to the paradise of 
 the cellar kitchen, where her hands dipped and tossed the foaming, boiling maple 
 syrup in the great brass kettle, and how we children watched and waited for it to 
 reach the sugar point ; and then memory recalls her at the loom in the far corner, 
 where she diligently plied the shuttle, and it was such a pleasure to see the wonder- 
 ful stripes growing out of the colors of her own dyeing. How she loved beautiful 
 things, and how many she wrought out by her own refined taste and marvelous 
 ingenuity ! 
 
 Surely King Lemuel's mother must have had just such a character in her mind 
 when she drew the picture of a virtuous woman for her son. 
 
 And then my dear cousins ! How we ransacked the barns together for the 
 hens' nests, and rode on the stone boat and found the first ripe cherries on grandpa's 
 trees, and the first harvest apples! Oh, such apples! And then my transient 
 school days there in the school house below the hill, and the awful vandalism that 
 the boys' jack-knives wrought out with the desks. And then the picturesque old 
 mill hard by, and the dear Mud Creek, where we used to wade upon the beautiful 
 table rocks: and the sulphur spring, where we used to kneel and lap up the water 
 like dogs or scoop it up with cups made of the over-arching Linden leaves. 
 
 But time and space fail me. Surely no returning pilgrim can have lovelier 
 recollections of the dear old home and its surroundings than the baby Julia Ann, 
 whose first visit must have been made there, and which commenced a long life of 
 loving veneration for it. 
 
 FROM 
 CHARLES SHEPARD PARKE, BUFFALO, N. Y. 
 
 Dear old Buell farm ! Every nook and corner of it is pictured in my heart. 
 I love it for the good friends found there and the happy times spent there. There 
 is that about it which makes for sweetness and strength in human life. 
 
 Though not one of its children, I am a partaker in its influence, and as such I 
 send this word on the eve of its one hundredth anniversary.

 FROM 
 JULIA BUELL MARTIN, MILWAUKEE, WIS. 
 
 With the deepest regret I am compelled to say that we cannot be with you at 
 the family reunion to which you so kindly sent us an invitation. . . . Ever 
 since the invitation came I have been possessed by the spirit of retrospection, and 
 have often thought of these lines : 
 
 " Youth longs and manhood strives, but age remembers; 
 Sits by the raked-up ashes of the past, 
 Spreads its thin hands above the dying embers 
 That warm its feeble life-blood to the last." 
 Here in my Wisconsin home the bells of memory are ringing, and across the 
 intervening miles I clasp your welcoming hands and feel the answering pressure in 
 return. I seem to see the grand old trees casting their pleasant shadows along the 
 green grass; the old-fashioned flowers which 1 know are shedding their beauty and 
 fragrance over the peaceful scene, and, more than all, the kind faces reflecting none 
 but gentle thoughts. I hear again earth's best and sweetest music — the voices of 
 loving friends. 
 
 To Mr. and Mrs. Charles Buell I would say, it is my wish that when the 
 shadows of the evening of life shall fall around you on the old homestead, you may 
 be surrounded by all that should accompany old age — " honor, love, obedience, 
 troups of friends."

 rpO what end did we come together on that lovely June day? Was it solely to 
 show our respect to the Grandfather who bought the land and planted there 
 the home around which cluster so many memories — was it only to meet and renew 
 old friendships, or to form new ties with kinsfolk we had never known? Perhaps 
 at the first thought this was all, but as we met face to face, as we reviewed the story 
 of the years, how much more was revealed to our hearts ! 
 
 When we consider the history of the family, it is with not a little surprise that we 
 discover the same traits of character dominating every generation from the earliest 
 authentic records. The motto on the coat of arms "To be useful rather than con- 
 spicuous," was it only given as a record of work well done in the past, or may we 
 not believe it to have been a divinely directed prophecy? 
 
 William Buell, the first of the race to come to America, left his native land for 
 the sake of religious freedom. He established himself in the new country, and his 
 influence was immediate and for good in the community. 
 
 Samuel his son was also a prosperous man, and a man of influence. 
 
 The son of Samuel, John, lived in Lebanon and was one of the founders of 
 Litchfield. He was a deacon in the churches of both towns. 
 
 Jonathan son of John was an exemplary member of the Congregational church 
 in Goshen, Connecticut. Timothy his son was the grandfather whom we honor in 
 this memorial. 
 
 It is recorded in the History of Ontario County that he bought certain land 
 described, and was elected deacon of the church in East Bloomfield. 
 
 Eben Buell, fourth son of Timothy, held for many years the office of Elder in 
 the first Presbyterian church in Rochester. He was a man greatly beloved, and it is 
 
26 
 
 said of him, that in all the years of his church membership he never lost a commun- 
 ion service. His son, George Candee Buell, held the same office in the same church. 
 
 Mortimer, son of Jonathan wasadeacon inthe Presbyterian church in Geneseo. 
 
 Charles, son of Timothy, Jr. still holds the office in East Bloomfield and his son 
 Harry Buell is now a deacon in the Congregational church in Canandaigua. 
 
 In the early days this office was held for life, the candidate being ordained by 
 the pastor, and it represented the best confidence of the church and community. 
 
 There have been eminent clergymen in the family; one lived on Gardner's 
 Island in Revolutionary times whose memory is still revered, but in our line since 
 the present century the only clergyman is Enos Baker of Modesto, California. 
 
 Not all the family are Presbyterians orCongregationalists. Many are Episcopa- 
 lians and of these Mr. Chas. Steele of Geneva holds the office of vestryman. 
 
 These facts are only mentioned to show how the faith of the fathers has been 
 justified in the sons. 
 
 In every generation the prevailing characteristics are the same ; judicious, hon 
 est, liberal, public spirited : what better inheritance can one ask, what greater stim- 
 ulus to effort can there be than such a record. 
 
GENEALOGY. 
 
GENEALOGY 
 
 OF 
 
 CAPTAIN TIMOTHY BUELL. 
 
 FT]HE published records of this branch of the Buell family being incomplete, it is 
 the object of the following pages to record the genealogy from the birth of 
 Captain Timothy Buell in 1757, to the reunion of his descendants in 1899. The 
 following books relating to the Buell family have previously been published : 
 
 " History of the Buell family in England, from the remotest times ascertainable 
 from our ancient histories, and in America from Town, Parish, Church and Family 
 Records," Compiled by Albert Wells, President American College for Genealogical 
 Registry, Family History and Heraldry, 1881. Publisher, " Society Library" New 
 York. 
 
 "History of the Town of Goshen, Connecticut, with Genealogies and 
 Biographies, based upon the records of Deacon Lewis Mills Norton," by Rev. A. G. 
 Hibbard, A. M. 1897. Press of Case, Lockwood and Brainard Co., Hartford. 
 
 In compiling this Genealogy it has been necessary to depend upon many widely 
 separated members of the family for information; some facts also are so far in the 
 past as to be very difficult to obtain ; but the work is as accurate as circumstances 
 would permit. 
 
 Those who know of facts or records which would add to the accuracy or com- 
 pleteness of this book will confer a favor by sending them to the undersigned, who 
 intends to keep a permanent record.

 REVOLUTIONARY WAR INCIDENTS. 
 
 ni HE following pages are taken from the "History of Goshen," which records 
 that Capt. Timothy Buell was the last survivor of the eighth company, 
 fourth regiment which was enlisted in 1775 and commanded by Captain John 
 Sedgwick ; and also the last survivor of the company of Captain Stephen Goodwin, 
 enlisted in 1776. The following incidents occurring to the latter company, were 
 related by Capt. Timothy Buell at the age of 72 (summer of 1839) : 
 
 The company remained on Long Island until the famous retreat of General 
 Washington, from that place to New York, early in September, 1776. 
 
 The day but one previous to the battle of Flatbush, Colonel Hart's regiment 
 was called out from the intrenchment to go on guard duty, about four miles 
 South. Half the regiment were doing sentry duty the first part of the night and 
 half the latter part. I had been sick and excused from duty two weeks before, but 
 I went with my regiment. It was a rainy night, and I sat by a tree while not on 
 guard, sitting upon the lock of my gun to keep it dry. In the morning we made 
 fires of rails and warmed and dried ourselves. The regiment returned to the 
 intrenchments towards night. Martin Nash, Martin Beach, and some others 
 were detailed for gua.rd duty that same night. These were in the fighting at 
 Flatbush the next day. 
 
 The regiment of Colonel Hart rested that night, and in the morning, it was 
 ordered to their alarm post, after breakfast, in a field near where they were 
 quartered, some 40 rods distant. Here it stayed until about 9 or 10 o'clock. At 
 that time an officer rode up and inquired for the officer commanding the regiment. 
 It was immediately ordered to march southeast two miles to the breastworks, in 
 which they were placed at the west end of the line extending east. From there it 
 was ordered into the fort, on the line which was something like half a mile east, 
 on a small, high hill. 
 
82 
 
 While there I had an opportunity of seeing the movements of the army and of 
 the enemy. I saw a Maryland regiment fired upon by the enemy, who were 
 concealed in the woods. It was a surprise. The regiment halted and returned 
 three fires and then retreated. They were all killed or taken prisoners. 
 
 Our regiment was called back to its former place in the intrenchments before 
 night. We remained under arms all night, part on guard and part trying to 
 sleep as they could, some going into a barn near by. And here we were kept two 
 hours, not allowed to go to our quarters, each mess of six sending for their 
 provisions. The cooking was done elsewhere. 
 
 From this place commenced the retreat, so memorable in the history of the 
 revolution. It was a dark, foggy night, the weather having been lowery for 
 some time before. About midnight all were called out to parade by the breast- 
 work. After the men were paraded a man* passed along the line, saying in a low 
 tone of voice, "Soldiers, look up your messmates; don't let one be left; if one is 
 left it will be a dreadful thing." This he kept repeating as he passed along. All 
 were ordered not to speak a loud word. The order was then given to march, 
 immediately back to the quarters at Brooklyn, without noise or music. We 
 marched directly by the houses where our company had been quartered, a short 
 distance, then halted, the road being full of men between us and the ferry. At 
 this time Edmund Beach and myself, unknown to the officers, slipped out and 
 passed by the side of the fence down to the ferry, to see what was going on. We 
 found the boats loading with men and starting to cross as rapidly as possible. 
 We returned and told the company what was being done. No orders were 
 given, but the men of our company with one consent, started to the houses where 
 we had been quartered, got our packs and what else we had (each mess had a 
 kettle) and returned. Seth and Matthew Lock wood, Edmund Beach; Ashbel 
 Beach, of Beach street, Jesse Judd and myself messed together. The men were 
 moved toward the ferry as fast as they had room and crossed in boats over to 
 New York; all silent, careful not to take in too many men; push off as soon as 
 loaded, land and back again as soon as possible. I got over about two o'clock. 
 In loading there was no distinction ; a company might or might not be together- 
 The men found each other as they could. The sentries were the last to be brought 
 off, just before sunrise. 
 
83 
 
 Captain Goodwin was not with the company at this time, and the company 
 was quartered in a house where we remained from three to five days. Our regi- 
 ment was then ordered North, about two miles outside of the city, where we 
 stayed two days with no shelter, except what we made with rails. Then we were 
 ordered about one mile farther North to a breastwork on the west side of East 
 River. We entered the breastwork after breakfast on Sabbath morning, Septem- 
 ber 15th. It was a clear day and very warm. There we stood in the sunshine 
 about four hours, or until afternoon, without food or drink. The breastwork 
 extended from north to south. Our company's position was near the northern 
 extremity of the intrenchment. The ground was gently sloping to the river, 
 about sixty rods distant. The ditch was cut down perpendicularly about thirty 
 inches and six feet wide, the earth thrown out on the lower side so that by 
 stooping the men would be protected. Our brigade was the only one within the 
 intrenchment. 
 
 At the time we entered there were three British ships of war lying in the river, 
 directly opposite, and some smaller vessels back of them. The embarkation of 
 British troops from Long Island begun at the same time. We counted sixty of 
 these boats, full of men. After all were embarked the foremost boat put out a 
 flag, which was the signal for them all to proceed, at the same moment the fire of 
 the ships commenced directed to our brigade in the breastworks; the object of 
 which seemed to be, to keep our men there, that no resistance should be offered to 
 the landing of the troops upon York Island. The firing from the ships was 
 tremendously heavy ; the balls and grape shot went over our heads and all around 
 us. We were not allowed to stand up, but I and some others would occasionally 
 lift up our heads to watch the troops in the boats. They soon passed the ships, 
 going up the river, and were out of sight; a point of woods, reaching down to 
 the river, obstructing the view. They landed at a place called Turtle Bay, a little 
 to the north of our brigade. The firing lasted one and one-half to two hours. 
 
 After the British troops had landed and were marching, as was supposed, to 
 the south, west of the intrenchment, and at some little distance from it, the fire of 
 the ships slackened ; the reason for which is supposed to have been that their own 
 men might not be exposed. When the firing had almost ceased, and only an 
 occasional shot to the southwest, the brigade was ordered to march out at the 
 south end of the ditch in single file and as fast as possible. We had to run about 
 
8 4 
 
 ten rods south, when passing behind a ledge of rocks we were sheltered from the 
 fire of the ships. 
 
 Here was a small orchard, enclosed with a stone wall, having a bar way on 
 the south side, near the southeast corner. In this orchard the brigade huddled 
 promiscuously to take a little rest, our commanding officers with us. We were 
 hungry, thirsty, out of breath, and all were glad to be sheltered from the British 
 fire. Many laid down their packs and some their coats. At this moment a body 
 of men from the north marched down upon the east side of the orchard, outside 
 the wall, in platoons of four. They were dressed in the same manner as an Amer- 
 ican regiment of York Grenadiers ; wearing blue coats with red facings, white 
 vest, breeches, and stockings and black gaiters. They wore high caps with metal 
 on the front, large, and high. The officers of the brigade were not agreed as to 
 who these men were. Some were certain that they were friends and others 
 believed that they were enemies. They continued to approach until opposite our 
 brigade and commenced entering through the bar way. The Brigade Major, 
 John Palsgrave Wyllys, of Hartford, reached out his hand to shake with the com- 
 manding officer, and he pulled him from his horse. General Wadsworth called 
 out, "Whoareyou?" "Friends," was the answer of the officer commanding, 
 with something of the German accent. " You are no friends,"' said Wadsworth, 
 and putting spurs to his horse escaped. Before Major Wylly's sword was taken 
 from him, he had swung it and cried, "Retreat, retreat, retreat." The Hessians 
 commenced firing and we all fled as we could. 
 
 Brigade Major Wyllys and Colonel Hart were taken prisoners. Eight of 
 Captain Goodwin's company were made prisoners on the spot and among them, 
 the acting commander, Lieutenant Gaylord, who had his thigh broken by a 
 musket ball. 
 
 Our flight was over the stone wall and westward, the ground descending 
 through a piece of open woodland a short distance, to a low piece of ground, 
 covered with alders. In getting over the stone wall, on the west side of the 
 orchard, John Norton overtook Robert Rood, Caleb and John Carr, who had 
 stopped there. " What are you about ?" asked John. "We are going to give 
 them battle, " was the reply. The three men were taken prisoners. As a part of 
 the company were getting over the wall they were closely pursued by the 
 Hessians. It was reported in the camp, although I saw nothing of it, that the 
 
85 
 
 commanding officer of the Hessians was killed by one of our men, Sergeant Sal- 
 mon Agard, from Torringford. He had jumped over the wall, when the Hessian 
 Colonel, in close pursuit called him to surrender. As he was turning to face him 
 he cocked his gun and shot the officer dead, and made his escape. This account 
 was current among the men who escaped, and was probably given at first, or 
 sanctioned by Agard himself. 
 
 At the time the Hessians attacked us Captain Goodwin's company were to- 
 gether near the middle of the orchard. The men were tired and many of them 
 were seated when the affair began. They had removed their packs, and many of 
 them their coats, and left them, or in some instances, threw them away when re- 
 treating. I saw nothing of the Hessians after leaving the orchard, but while 
 passing through the piece of timber the sound of the bullets over our heads and 
 among the trees gave sufficient evidence that we were being pursued. After 
 passing through the low ground covered with alders, we went over ascending 
 ground to an open field when we discovered the columns of the British army 
 directly in our front, leisurely marching to the south on the main road to New 
 York. These were the troops that had just landed above. On seeing the main 
 road occupied by the enemy it was the object of our men to get ahead of them and 
 cross the road in order to make our escape to the North River. We continued to 
 run to the south, in the open fields, keeping some forty or fifty rods from the 
 enemy, until we had gained a sufficient distance to make it safe to turn westward 
 and cross the road. This was about three-fourths of a mile south of the place 
 where we had first seen them. When we crossed they were in full view and from 
 one-eighth to one-fourth of a mile distant. It is supposed that they feared an 
 ambuscade, for they proceeded cautiously and did not molest us. 
 
 After running westward, about half a mile, the foremost halted until all had 
 come up, General Wadsworthamongthem. Here we paradedforthe first timesince 
 we left the breastworks, and marched north on the lower road in regular order. 
 I was in the front guard at the time, and after marching about one mile I saw a 
 man galloping rapidly towards us and soon recognized the iron gray horse and 
 General Putnam. On coming up he stopped a moment, asked what had taken 
 place, directed us to Kingsbridge and galloped on. It was stated that he went 
 on to the lower part of the city, brought off all the American guards and arrived 
 safe in camp. 
 
86 
 
 The brigade arrived that night at Harlem Heights and our mess went into a 
 meadow, to a stack of hay, of which we pulled out some and spread it upon the 
 ground. It was a bright, moonlight night, we were tired and hungry, but had 
 found some water in a field after General Putnam left us. We made ourselves as 
 comfortable as possible, covering ourselves with Edmund Beach's blanket, which 
 he had saved with his pack, having nothing but his drum to carry. 
 
 The next morning, about ten o'clock, we drew some fresh beef, salt, and flour. 
 Some one in the company had some where obtained a pot that would hold a pail- 
 ful. This pot we put aboiling for our beef and kept it boiling, as it was the only 
 thing of the kind for the company. Some of us took our flour and went down to 
 the side of the North River, where there was a spring. Here we found a large 
 rock, about eight feet high, with » hollow like a basin upon the top of it. Into 
 this hollow we put our flour and bringing water in our hats from the spring we 
 wet it up and made dough. This dough we baked on flat stones before the fire 
 and "it was good." It was about noon and we had not taken any food since 
 sunrise of the preceding day. 
 
 At this time there was fighting a mile south of us, in which the Goshen militia 
 were engaged. Our brigade was considered too much exhausted to be called into 
 action at that time. We returned to Goshen the December following.
