He commenced his home, where he lived and died, in the forest, with only Indians for his neigh bors and Indian trails for public roads. He built the first log house in the village of Hartland. He ever evinced a deep interest in whatever concerned the public good. He assisted in the organization of the first school district in the town, was at "the first religious meeting, and aided in the establishment of the first Christian Church. He was at the first and every funeral in his neighborhood while he lived. He was chosen deacon of the Congregational Church, which office he held during life. These few facts are an index of his general character. Hi's death was truly a public loss and a deep affliction to his bereaved family." Mr. Norman Brainerd d. Sept. 13, 1852-'53, in Hartland.

Sept. 3, 1811, in Thomson's Mills, now Clark's ' Mills, Oneida Co., N. Y., son of Nathan and Theodosha (Green) Thomson. He was a Presbyterian clergyman of fine taste and nature, whose life was devoted mainly to teaching. At different times he was principal of the Academy at Chittenango, Onon daga Valley, and Eiga, Monroe Co., N. Y. He also taught successfully for several years a private school in Syracuse. Eev. George W. Thomson d. Feb. 5, 1872, ae. 60 yrs., 4 mos., 3 ds., in Buffalo, N. Y., and is buried in Kirkland Cemetery, N. Y. The following is from The Syracuse Journal: — " From her earliest youth Mrs. Thomson was distinguished not only for deep piety, but for a life of extreme forget fulness of self. Her charity for others, often at the cost to herself of severe self -denial, and sacrifice, was almost unbounded and was frequently an astonishment to those around her. As was the case with her husband, a large portion of her life, besides being occupied with family cares, was given to teaching, though after she became a widow much of her time was filled with literary work, principally for the press. For a period of more than fif- Sixth Generation. 105 teen of her years, Mrs. Thomson lived in Washington, D. C, for nearly the whole of which time she was the valued correspondent of The Journal, the weight of oncoming years and her consequent change of residence alone sun dering her relations with this paper. Her letters, over the nom de plume of " Chinquipin," were among the best written from the national capital. She had a clear com prehension of general and political subjects, a ready grasp of passing events, a quick ear to hear and eye to see that which would interest others, together with a facility and grace of expression that made her letters a feature of the paper. Mrs. Thomson enjoyed a deserved popularity among the Washington correspondents, and was especially a favorite with the lady correspondents, among whom she was a pioneer and an example. Her acquaintance with public men and prominent people at Washington was wide, and the esteem in which she was held by them was noticeable. Mrs. Thomson also was a welcome occasional contributor to The Chicago Advance, and The New York Evangelist. " To the possession of a well-disciplined mind was added a breadth of information, a strength of intellect and a geniality of spirit that made her one of the most inter esting of companions. Her conversation was at once en tertaining and instructive, marked by sound common sense and a practical knowledge of affairs. A pleasing trait of her character was her habit always to put the best possible construction upon the words and acts of others. " Mrs. ThomsQn's last trying illness, since the 27th of Decem ber last, was borne with patience, sweetness and resigna tion, and her thoughtfulness and consideration for others continued to the end. A beautiful life has gone out, as far as this world is concerned ; but its influence will live in the mind and hearts of many, whose sorrows she has shared and to whom she has given sympathy and comfort in time of trial. Even in her dying hours it cheered her to learn of far-absent ones who teach their children to think of her with love and gratitude for her beautiful example and influence in years gone by. During her residence in this city, Mrs. Thomson was a member of the First Presbyterian Church; upon removal to Wash ington she united with the New York Avenue Presby terian Church of that city, where her membership re mains."

H., in June, 1840, he was ordained as its pastor Nov. 5, 1840, and remained there till, at his own request, he was dismissed in 1855 and re installed in Halifax, Mass., as pastor of the Plymouth Congregational Church, from which he was dismissed Oct., 1866, and moved to Grinnell, Iowa, carrying on a farm for three years, and afterward residing in the city, where he was repeatedly one of the Examining Com mittee of Iowa College. From the Necrology of the Andover Theogical Seminary, Ex-President George F. Magoun, D.D. (class of 1844), writes of him : " Mr. Brainerd was a man of unusually clear, penetrating, and discriminating mind. What he knew was known with exactness, and used with the firm ness and thoroughness begotten of such knowledge. As a man of affairs he acted with precision. His lifelong and scholarly study of the Greek Testament and his defi nite and strong religious views were characteristic. He could not be anything less than an ardent patriot, an unswerving reformer in respect to intemperance and slavery, a loyal and eager believer in the evangelical faith. To the last he followed the political interests of the na-' tion, the fortunes of prohibition, the criticism affecting the doctrines of orthodoxy, with lively interest and the deepest solicitude. In his conversation, and especially in his prayers, his familiarity with and apt use of "the words the Holy Ghost teaeheth " were exceptional. Very venerable, and honored in simple ways in keeping with his marked character, was his presence in all the circles in which he moved. Eev. Timothy Green Brainerd d.

Y., then known as Methodist Hill, six miles from Eochester, N. Y. The country was then largely a wilderness. He was educated at the Genesee Wes- leyan Seminary, Lima, N. Y. He was licensed as an ex- horter in the Methodist Episcopal Church in Sweden, N. Y., May 5, 1832, and was received on trial in the Genesee Conference in 1833, being ordained by Bishop Elijah Hedding as deacon Sept. 2, 1834, in Eochester, N. Y. He was in the active 'ministry for five years, but his health failing, he engaged in farming, occasionally preaching. As a preacher he was evangelical, forcible and awakening. He was a man of mild, even temper and of deep convic tions. He professed the blessing of holiness, and his life harmonized with his profession. He endeavored to live and act according to his convictions of right. Always spiritual, he had been ripening for heaven. He reached an old age through the blessing of God upon a peaceful and temperate life. He was converted when 14 years of age, in Haddam, Conn. The day before his departure he said, " It does not seem to me that my time has come, but living or dying all is well, Glory ! " As his pastor was about to take leave, he said, " Good-By." He shook his head. " No, I cannot say good-by, we shall meet again, glory, glory." After this he said but little and gradually sank away until the weary wheels of life stood still.

From The New York Evangelist of Apr. 11, 1873, the following is taken: "Eev. Eleazer Cady Thomas was converted under the min istry of Eev. Gustavus Hines, later of the Oregon Con ference. He was educated at the Seminary at Lima, N. Y., and licensed to preach and admitted to the General 118 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. Conference in 1838, and was stationed at Pittsford, in the Eochester District. In 1855 he was transferred to. the California Conference and' was appointed pastor of the Powell St. Church, San Francisco, Cai. In 1856, he was elected editor of The California Christian Advocate* He was re-elected to the same office in 1860, and again in 1864. He rendered important service in establishing the Methodist Book Depository, and served as agent of the business for a period of six years, while editing The Advocate. In 1868 he was elected second assistant agent of the New York Book Concern, and placed in charge of the business in San Francisco, Cai. " At a recent session of the California Conference he was ap pointed presiding elder of the Petaluma District. He had been twice chosen a delegate to the Genesee Con ference, being a member of .the session in 1852, in Boston, and of the Conference in 1860, in Buffalo, N. Y. " He was on the Western coast a period of eighteen years, rendering valuable service in advancing the kingdom of Christ. In the pulpit he was ready, earnest, and strong. He possessed rare social qualifications, which rendered him a welcome companion and guest wherever he went. " Some four weeks ago Dr. Thomas was appointed a member of the Peace Commission, to assist in reconciling the Modoc Indians, who had made raids on the settlers in the southeastern portion of Oregon. The commission con sisted of Hon. A. B. Jleacham, Dr. E. Thomas, and L. S. Dyar, Esq. They were accompanied by Gen. Canby,. who was commander of the military department, and Capt. Eiddles and his native wife, who served as inter preters. " On Friday, thellth, the Commissioners consented to meet the Modocs on what was neutral ground. There were eight Indians present. Several speeches were made with out any beneficial results, when at a signal given by ' Capt. Jack/ an attack was made upon the Commis sioners. Gen. Canby was shot and instantly killed. Dr. Thomas received two shots, either of which would have proved mortal, the first entering his breast, passing through his lung, and the other entered his brain. Mr. i Meacham was shot down and will probably recover. Mr. Dyar made his escape unharmed.

Academy, he commenced special efforts for the educa tion of teachers; these efforts were for several successive years particularly noticed by the Eegents of the Univer sity in their reports to the legislature, and resulted in their establishment of Normal Departments by law in the several Senatorial Districts of the State; one of which was located in St. Lawrence Academy. About 100 teachers a year were educated and sent out to their departments of labor. Upwards of 200 young men pursued their preparatory studies under him for the ministry. He was ordained a minister in the Presbyterian Church, but was never installed as pastor of any congregation. He often supplied vacant pulpits and assisted pastors in the discharge of their duties, but he never accepted a charge. In 1849 his health failed and he temporarily abandoned teaching, but two years later he accepted a position in the Norwalk schools, and with his wife migrated to Ohio. Seven or eight years more of labor so impaired his health that he gave up his work and moved to Cleveland, Ohio, where he resided in retirement. Eev. Asa Brainerd d.

Nov. 30, 1826, in Otselic, Chenango Co., N. Y., dau. of George Knox and Huldah (Norton) Coley of Chenango, N. Y. He went to Sacramento, Cai. He spent his boyhood days with his parents upon the old home farm of his grandfather Gage. His education was acquired in the common schools and in the DeEuyter In stitute of New York. At the age of 18 years he began teaching school and at the same time studied law, and afterward to some extent engaged in legal practice, but on account of ill health abandoned that work. He then went to Eome, N. Y., where he engaged in a forwarding and shipping business. In October, 1850, he started for California, arriving at San Francisco in December of the same year. He spent a short time in the mines, then re turned to Sacramento City, engaging in the produce busi ness. He came east and was married, returning to Cali fornia by the way of the Isthmus of Panama. In April, 1856, he was elected city treasurer of Sacramento, serving one year. He returned to the States, settling in Chicago June, 1858. He joined the Board of Trade, filling many 132 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. of its subordinate offices and was vice-president for three years, and during the greater part of 1872 acted as president whilst rebuilding Chicago after the great fire. He was then engaged in the grain and produce business. In 1866 he removed to Evanston, a suburb of Chicago, continuing business in the city. In May, 1872, he was appointed Illinois Canal Commissioner and served two terms. The Copperas Creek lock and dam were built during that time. In March, 1883, he was appointed Bailroad and Warehouse Commissioner, serving two years. For eight years he was on the Committee of Appeals for the inspection of grain. In politics he was a Eepublican. He was trustee of the Village Board of Evanston for three terms, and for three years was town collector. His life was a busy and useful one, also an eventful one. Extract of a sermon preached at his funeral by Eev. C. F. Bradley : " Of his character as a husband, father, friend and neighbor I can speak with a personal knowledge. Though not particularly demonstrative in words, his utterances were invariably friendly and cordial and he seemed to seek opportunities to express his neighborliness by acts of generosity and kindness. It was exceedingly interesting to observe his unusual love of nature. His garden with its vegetables, fruit and flowers was his con stant delight. His conversation indicated a mind richly stored with the results of wide observation of men and things. A shrewd judgment, clearly defined convictions, manly independence, and a marked gift of terse and pithy expression. To the strictness of his business integrity a Chicago friend bore particular witness lately, saying that he had many opportunities in trade from which a man less scrupulously conscientious would have heaped a fortune. Outside of his own home and neighborhood his generosity was best known to the poor and neglected. This morning there came to the door a colored man, ask ing the privilege to look upon his face once more. En tering the room, he said, pointing to the casket, ' There lies a man that was a friend to me when I had no bread.' " A man's' home life is ever one of the severest tests of his character, and in his home life he was signally devoted and beloved. A husband, father and grandfather, he showed a kindness, patience and generosity which made his presence a perpetual blessing, and which made his memory a precious heritage. For many months past it had been evident to him and others that the end was draw ing near. He had passed his three score years and ten. He watched for the approaching change with calmness, often saying he was willing to trust all his interest to his God in whom he believed, feeling that all would be well, and so suddenly and painlessly came the end.

His work as water Purveyor obliged him to spend much time in street cars and he decided to utilize the time so passed in learning the languages. The success of this studious economy of moments was evinced in his acquiring a reading acquaintance with twelve languages. He was also a student of natural history, and the first collection of mosses and lichens belonging to the L. I. Historical Society, are of his classifying. Mr. Brainerd began his work as an amateur photographer in 1858. He was then 13 years of age, and made some crude cameras with which he took small ambrotypes. He continued to make cameras aim ing all the time to take instantaneous subjects. He repeatedly mentioned that he thought the happiest moment of his life was when he developed his first successful picture of this kind. A few years ago, he perfected a system for photographing the vocal organs. Since then laryngeal photo graphing is an established success. This statement is limited to a few words, but the actual labor involved in the achievement, was very great. Since Dr. Thomas R. French, of Brooklyn, made and Mr. Brainerd devel oped 2,500 exposures before their first fair success was attained." Dr. Thomas R. French read a paper before the Section of Laryngology, at the International Medical Congress, Copenhagen, Aug. 15, 1884, on this subject for which great credit was given to him and Mr. Brainerd for their success in these experiments, as no such success had been attained hereto fore in this line. He left a collection of 2,500 negatives of views of L. I., Conn. River, and Hudson River, and street views of Brooklyn and New York which have since been donated to the Brooklyn Academy of Photography. He also left a large collection of birds' skins numbering 400, also a fine collection of shells and minerals. Hi3 herbarium consisting of Phonog- amous plants, ferns, mosses, lichens, and Algea, have been donated to the Brooklyn Institute, and also the 400 bird skins. The children are buried in Rock Landing Cemetery, Haddam Neck, Conn. 249.

" His early life was spent in the town of his birth, where he received his preparation for college. Through the in fluence of the Bev. Dr. J. E. Bankin he was led to enter Middlebury College in the autumn of 1860. He grad uated in 1864, receiving the first honor, and was imme diately appointed tutor for the following year. There is but one other instance in the history of the college of the appointment of a student to the position of instructor for the year succeeding his graduation. After serving for two years as tutor, Mr. Brainerd entered the Theological Seminary at Andover, Mass., where he graduated in 1868, but was not ordained. He was at once appointed to the chair of Bhetoric and English Literature in Middlebury College, left vacant by the resignation of Professor Brain erd Kellogg, who had been called to the Brooklyn Poly technic Institute. He filled this position until 1880, when he was made Professor of Physics and Applied Mathematics. In 1885, upon the resignation of the Eev. Dr. Cyrus Hamlin, he was appointed temporary president by the Board of Trustees, and on April 17, 1886, he was elected eighth president of the college with which he had been so long connected. In addition to his regular college duties, President Brainerd has given much study to other departments of Natural Science, and has made several important contributions to the Botany and Geology of Vermont. In 1887, he was one of the three commis sioners appointed to revise the school laws of the State of Vermont. In 1888, he received the degree of LL.D. from Bipon College, Wisconsin, and also from the Univer sity of Vermont." He resides in Middlebury, Vt. Mr. Ezra Brainerd d. .

Dennis, Barn stable Co., Mass., and afterward in Wallingford, Eutland Co., Vt., in 1880, where his health failed him, and he was placed in the Asylum for the Insane in Brattleboro, Vt. From the Necrology of Andover Theological Seminary: Mr. Brainerd's attached friend, Bev. Herbert W. Lathe, writes of him : " He was a man of deep piety and quick sympathies, amiable and affectionate in disposition, and of sanguine temperament. A great hater of shams, he was particularly earnest to find the truth for himself, and, when found, to be loyal to it. His winning ways and sterling character account for his invariable popularity. His sermons were manly and strong rather than senti mental, and he was specially gifted in commending the gospel to men. Compelled to retire from the ministry after a short service, he longed and expected to return to it, and his early death removed from the world a devoted Christian, a most companionable and lovable friend, and a faithful minister of the Word."

Magazines at the' present day have a children's column or pages with literature devoted to their interests. Therefore it seems not inappropriate that the following article written by Gordon Bennett's mother of his ad ventures in Florida should be printed. Buck Key is a small island on the Gulf Coast of South Florida, between Key West and Tampa. Fishing and truck farming are the principal pursuits along the coast. Here too is where the gamey tarpon is found at its best. Tourists come here from all parts of the world to fish for the silver king. All kinds of tropical fruits do well here. Like all settlers in a new country, the beginning was very primitive. The first Buck Key home was a palmetto shack, situated on the Eighth Generation. 215 430.

Mrs. Katie Elsie (Brainerd) Mosher d. . bank of a small bayou where the alligator's bellow could be heard, and that little pest, the mosquito, was something terrible, and is still a great nuisance. But as the country settled and the land cleared and cul tivated, they are not so bad. There were a few deer on the island, and Gordon Bennett, then about nine years old, was very anxious to kill one and was a very persistent hunter though unlucky with his first deer. He went hunting one after noon with a young man and each was to stand on a runway and shoot the deer when the dog started it out. Gordon heard the deer coming and crouched down behind a bunch of low mangrove trees, and soon the deer came in sight. He shot at the doe when the deer whirled in some way, and in passing him came so near him as to hit the stock of his gun; when they passed, he shot at the buck and then became frightened; thinking of the stories he had heard of wounded bucks attacking hunters, and ran for home as fast as his short legs would carry him. On reaching home about sunset, his father and the young man went back with him but could not find either of the deer. A few days later while coon hunting near where he shot the deer, he found the doe dead, shot through the shoulder. These islands were at one time the home of the mound builders, and many relics have been found. 216 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. Mosher child: i. Carlos Wayne, b. Aug. 3, 1903, in Newport, Vt. 433.

Nov. 9, 1779, dau. of Daniel and Azubah (Guernsey) Green. He was a prominent man in his day, a contractor on the Erie canal. The inventor of the weighlock, wheelbarrow, stone crusher, and many other useful machines. He was a personal friend of . DeWitt Clinton and many other prominent men of his day. He built the bridge, mentioned on page 269 of Brainerd genealogy, compiled by Bev. D. D. Field, and named in his honor. In middle life he settled in Bome, N. Y. He was famous for his great ingenuity and firmness of character. He labored with DeWitt Clinton on the construction of that groat work, the Erie Canal. The work at Little Falls was done by him on contract. He built the first " weigh lock" and the first wheelbarrow that was ever made in its present form. His inventions were numerous and useful, but he never derived any personal benefit from them. The following is from an obituary notice written at the time of his death. " Mr. Jeremiah Brainerd has been favor ably known as an active, ingenious and enterprising man, possessed of uncommon powers of mind in mechanism; and an inventive genius equalled by few in this or any other portion of the country. He was intent upon origi nating and perfecting such implements of machinery as 58 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. he believed would prove a public benefit and his inven tions have for the most part been of great practical utility. From a wheelbarrow and an iron paddle gate to a gigantic weighlock, they were adopted and have ever since been used on that great work, the Erie Canal. At this time not a railroad is constructed or canal ex cavated in our land without the aid of implements and engines of his creation. Like most men of genius, he was too much absorbed in his effort under the guidance of his master passion to realize personal remuneration, while others more tenacious of gain reaped the benefits of his inventions and improvements. He was a liberal and free hearted man, kind and obliging neighbor, and faithful in all his domestic relations. He was prostrated many months by paralysis, and when he^could no longer create or add to the common benefit, went to the grave mourned by his numerous relations and friends."

In August, 1836, he removed to Chicago, 111., where he remained until Oct., 1839, when he left for Paris for a more extended study in his profession.

At the time of his death he had been for several years engaged on an ex tensive Surgical Work which remains unfinished. He was one of the most prominent surgeons of the North west.

In December, 1864, he was appointed director of the company, and at the next annual meeting, in July, he was elected member of the Eailway Board of Directors, which position, and that of inspector of accounts, he held several years. He was also director, treasurer and finan cial officer of the Silver Creek Mining & Eailway Company in Wayne and Medina Counties seven years, from 1856 to 1863. For many years he was director of the Fortage County branch of the State Bank of Ohio, and after the death of Mr. Seymour, in Nov., 1863, he was elected its President. After the organization of the First National Bank of Bavenna, he was for several years one of its directors. He was treasurer of the Farmers' Insurance Company of Bortage Cpunty during all the years of its business transaction. Eor seven years he was treasurer and three years Bresident of the Portage County Agricul tural Society, and much of its success and prosperity is due to his efficient action and untiring efforts in its be half. For the past six years he has been director and historian of the Portage and Summit Counties Pioneer Association. In 1870 he entered into partnership with his son, Charles W. Brainerd, under the firm name of E. P. Brainerd & Son, and engaged in a gen eral drug business, which continued until the spring of 1882. He was a direct descendant of Eevolu tionary stock, and inherited the spirit of '76 and great devotion to the stars and stripes. In politics he began an old-line Whig, voted the Free Soil ticket, and has been identified with the Eepublican party since its organization, and was for many years chairman of the County Central Committee. He has ever been a warm friend of education. For many years before the Union School system was adopted, he held the position of Director of Common Schools, and later for some years he was Bresident of the Board of Education of Bavenna. From the early period at which the subject of the sketch became identified with the interests of Portage County, i he has occupied a conspicuous position in business affairs, ' in educational interests, public improvements, and all that pertains to the progress and advancement of his town and county. The record of his life will live in the mem ory of those whose rugged ways he smoothed and softened, after he has passed away. 124 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. Margaret Wells was educated at the Eavenna Academy and her early life was devoted to teaching. In her vocation she was earnest, thorough, and successful, obtaining the love, respect and good will of her pupils. She had no sympathy with those who neutralize their energies in sentimentalism. Her life motto was to " be up and doing with a heart for any fate." Labor was never regarded a burden, abstinence from the indulgences of life no hard ship, time a talent to be always improved, industry a cardinal virtue and laziness the worst form of original sin. Naturally . sympathetic, she was easily aroused to works of benevolence and humanity, and in her friend ships, true, trusting and practical. Her domestic life approached a model, and in that sphere no duty was for a moment left undone. Mrs. Margaret (Wells) Brainerd d. Mch. 21, 1880, ae. 63 yrs. He m.

For some time prior to his death he kept a sales stable for the pur chase and sale of fine horses in the city of Philadel phia, Pa. He died from the effects of poison taken into his system from horses having the equine disease. He died the death of a true Christian, lamented by a large circle of friends and acquaintances.

After concluding her education at Oberlin, Ohio, in 1872, she went to Goldsboro, N. Carolina and engaged in teaching under the auspices of the Friend's Association of Phila, Pa., and remained there over one year. She returned to Washington, D. C, and accepted a clerkship in the Capitol TJ. S. Office for about seven years. She was (1890) Matron of the Hospital at Lynn, Mass., where she had a broad field for exercising her self-sacrificing devotion for the best good of suffering humanity. 182.

In 1838 he settled in Bandolph, Ohio, which has since been his home. Mrs. Elizabeth B. Brainerd was intellectually a woman of deep thought and discerning judgment. She loved books, and was, through all her life, a great reader; naturally quiet, retiring and undemonstrative, she made no display, and her intellectual attainments were, most appreciated by those who came very near and knew her best. Be- ligiously she was an earnest, devoted follower of Christ. She was strongly attached to the Methodist Church, of which she was a member; its temporal, as well as its spiritual burdens, were ever upon her, and through all her life she was an active, faithful worker in its cause. Her Christian character was without spot or blemish; she professed but little, but she lived much; her heart was strong in all Christian virtues and only out of its abun dance did her lips speak ; her daily life was the living epistle of her faith. For many years she was a faithful, earnest teacher in the Sabbath School. She went to her work before her class fresh from communion with her God, and the impress of her pure, inspiring thought and Christian teaching helped to mould the character and shape the life of many a fair young girl, who in the years to come will call her memory blessed. The harvest of her sowing, eternity alone can measure. Socially, as a neighbor and friend, she was one to lean upon, her words were few, but they were not uncertain ; her deeds of kind ness were many. By the bedside of the sick, in the hour 126 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. of sorrow, with quiet strength, she bore the burdens of others. But it was in the home, in the family that she filled her grandest measure. She was preeminently a " Home Mother." The care of each one of her household was her care; her busy fingers were never weary with works of love. Beautifully, roundly, did she fill the picture Solo mon paints of the good wife and mother. As a wife, she was constant, faithful and true as tempered steel. As a mother, kind, indulgent, yet inspiring, with the ten derest love she was ever ready to listen to childhood's sorrow and dry a childish tear; with quick perceptions, she was ever watchful to impress the growing mind with pure thoughts and noble aspirations, and in the fruition of maturer years, she shared each joy and sorrow. She wove a cord of love between herself and her family that had in it no uncertain strand, but became firmer and stronger as years went by. Her life work was well done, and its close, through weary weeks of physical pain and suffering, serene, unclouded and strong in Christian tri umph. She taught us how to live, she has shown us how to die. A broken home and sorrowing hearts are left; but, in the fullness of time, at the end of the path her feet have trod, earth's sorrows and mysteries will be un folded, and over death, triumphant and changeless, will •bloom the years of never-ending life.

Linus Bidwell6 Brainerd (Solomon5, Henry", Phineas3, Elijah2, DanieV) of Canfield, Mahoning Co., Ohio; m., Oct., 1839, Huldah Eebecca Bradley, b. July 25, 1820, in Ohio, dau. of Benjamin and Mary (Gifford) Bradley of Shailersville, Portage Co., Ohio. He labored on the frontier farm until 20 years of age. His studies were prosecuted at night by the light of pine knots. By as siduous labor he was able to enter Worthington Academy at the age of twenty, but was obliged on account of ill ness to abandon regular studies. His father's death forced his immediate return to the farm, where the whole care of the family fell upon him. It proved a difficult task with the limited means at hand, but he performed it faithfully until the individual members were able to care for themselves. Having a taste for medicine and surgery, he began studying, under private instructions, at the age of twenty-seven, at Windham, Portage Co., Ohio. His studies were con tinued for three years, then taking two courses of lectures in the Western Beserve and Medical College, wherein he accomplished a three years' work, he received his degree and began the practice of his profession in Cleveland, Sixth Generation. 147 Ohio, the city of his graduation. He remained in Cleve land seven years, when yielding to the fever which carried so many to the west, he joined the emigrating throng and went to the Territory of Wisconsin in 1844. After a few months spent in studying different " new places," he set tled in Sheboygan, sent back to Ohio for his family, and entered on the practice of his profession. Having received the appointment of deputy-collector of customs for the Port of Green Bay, he removed to that place in 1849, performed the duties of his office and at tended at the same time to a large medical and surgical practice. He was one of the first promoters of the ex tension of the telegraph lines to Green Bay, and promi nent in inaugurating and sustaining Lyceum courses and lectures. He filled the office of deputy-collector during the Fillmore administration, but taking a prominent and pronounced part as an admirer of General Scott in the Scott- Fierce campaign which followed, he was rotated out of office by President Pierce on his accession to power. The Indian lands in Waupaca and other counties having been thrown open by purchase, he went to Waupaca and secured 280 acres along the river, and erected a saw mill of such dimensions that it included also the making of lath, pickets, and furniture, but the demands upon his professional time caused the mill to be too much left in the hands of others, so that it finally ceased to be profita ble. It was destroyed by fire in 1865, and being unin sured entailed a heavy loss. From the time of his going to Waupaca till his entering the army in 1862, his horse- ' back rides in the practice of his calling frequently ex tended 100 miles into the northern pineries, his reputa tion as a surgeon having reached the innermost recesses of the lumbering regions. He was appointed assistant surgeon of the 7th Begt., Wis. Vols., June 21, 1862, and immediately went into the field, was taken sick, resultant on exposure and overwork at the battlefield of Gettysburg, and lay in a precarious condition for some weeks; was transferred, on recovery, to hospital work at City Boint; served on several occasions, as specially detailed, in the regular army, but his en feebled condition, together with his age, 59 years, caused him to tender his resignation on Apr. 16, 1864, and re tire to private life. After the war he sojourned for a while in the eastern part of Maryland, when, his health being: re-established, he returned to Waupaca, and resumed his medical practice. In politics he was a Whig in early and middle life, and naturally gravitated to the Bepublican ranks. He was an active member of the I. 0. 0. P. and of the Lodge of F. and A. M., organized and was the first Grand Master 118 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. of the Waupaca Lodge. In his creed he was an Episco palian of the so-called High Church stamp, but with a. broad love for the religious teachers of human kind, his professional services were rendered to the ministers of any and every denomination without charge. It was through his influence, as the leading spirit, that the first Episcopalian services were held in Waupaca and the church established there. He was a man of fine literary taste, and a promoter of every public enterprise, devoting his time, his energy and his talents to the education of his children and the good of his fellow men. A few months before his eightieth birthday he received a stroke of paralysis, from which his great age forbade recovery. His Masonic brethren attended his bedside for many weeks, watching and caring for him with the most assiduous attention until death came to his relief. In person he was 5 ft. 10% in- high, and until the waning years of his life practiced his profession on horseback In later years he became somewhat corpulent, and aban doned the saddle for an open buggy. His eyes were light blue, his hair and beard in later life were white as the newly-fallen snow, his complexion ruddy, and the ex pression of his face most kindly. In the battles of the Wilderness, Surgeon Brainerd had in one night, while attending to his duties on the field, three horses shot under him. He was taken prisoner, deprived of his sword and money, and after three days returned. On another occasion his horse having been disabled by a shell, he seized a riderless steed which galloped towards the lines, and became the possessor of one of the famous chargers of the noted Black Horse Cavalry.

C, may now with justice be termed one of the prominent self-made men of the time. Sixth Generation. 149 His parents '.emigrated from Connecticut about the com mencement of this, the 18th century. His father was a farmer, one of the pioneers of what was then an un broken wilderness. Born amid the hardships of a frontier life, with few of the comforts and none of the advantages of older settlements, and being obliged to aid his father upon the farm, his opportunities for education were exceedingly 'limited, con sisting chiefly of a few terms, of three months each, in a common country district school. When seven years of age, his family removed to the town ship of Boardman, Trumbull Co., Ohio, and remained there till Jehu's maturity. In July, 1825, before he had reached his 18th year, the death of his father left him in charge of a widowed mother and a large family of de pendent children. He gladly accepted these sacred trusts, and nobly cared for them until time and circumstances rendered his farther protection unnecessary. During the winter of 1825-'26, he taught in the district school. From the date of his marriage until 1842 his life was devoted to business and to the study of science and medicine. In 1842 he commenced the publication of The Ohio Farmer as editor and proprietor at Chagrin Falls, a thriving vil lage, twenty miles from Cleveland. While thus employed, his attention was directed to homoeopathy, to which he gave a close and searching examination, and in a few months became a convert to its principles and practice. In the summer of 1844 he removed to Cleveland, Ohio, and became interested in the publication of several scien tific and elementary works on natural history, geology, etc., in association with Prof. Hamilton L. Smith, now in Geneva, N. Y., Prof. Samuel St. John, now in New York City, and Prof. Jared P. Kirkland, now in Cleveland, Ohio. To this last named gentleman Prof. Brainerd ac knowledged his great indebtedness for much valuable aid rendered to him in youth in the pursuit of his studies. In 1847 he was connected with the public schools of Cleve land, as teacher of natural history and drawing, which positions he honorably filled for ten years, and during this time he prepared and published an elementary book on the art of drawing, which was adopted as a text book. In the autumn of 1849 the Western College of Homoeopathy was organized in Cleveland. Brof. Brainerd was one of its corporators and on its full organization was elected a member of the faculty. He has successively and ably filled the chairs of botany, judicial jurisprudence and tox icology, elementary chemistry, organic chemistry, micros copic anatomy, and histology. The continuance of his relation to the college is not less honorable to this cele brated institution than it is creditable to himself. In 1858, '59, '60, he was professor of agricultural chem- 2 E — 32 150 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. istry in the Agricultural College of Ohio, and for the two last named years was professor of chemistry in the Homoe opathic College of Missouri. In these important positions he acquitted himself of his duties with the highest honor to himself and colleges. From 1867 to 1870 he occupied the chair of chemistry in the Woman's Homoeopathic College of Cleveland, Ohio. In 1861 he removed to Washington City and opened an office for the practice of medicine. In several emergen cies, when the government called for volunteer surgeons, Professor Brainerd offered his services, which were ac cepted. After the dose of the war, discovering that cer tain laws passed by Congress in 1838 worked oppressively against all who practiced homoeopathy in the District, he petitioned Congress for their repeal, and being joined subsequently by other physicians, he not only succeeded in attaining the desired end, but procured a charter from the Homoeopathic Association at Washington City, thus giving to his profession a prestige never previously pos sessed. In 1872-73 he was Bresident of that body. His publications are various; of these we will mention " The Influence of Narcotic Stimulants on the Human System," " The Chemical Constitution of the Books," " On the Laws of Health and Physical Develop ment," " The Application of Steam Power to the Culti vation of the Soil," " The Philosophy of the Homoeopathic System of Medical Practice." Without the acknowledged advantages of an academic or collegiate course of study, Prof. Brainerd has been hon ored with diplomas from several institutions of high character, in tribute to his great worth and learning. The above is taken from " Clease's Biographical Cyclo pedia of Homoeopathic Physicians and Surgeons," pub lished by Galaxy Publishing Co., Philadelphia, Pa., 1873. There is a pleasing story told of him and Mr., afterwards President Garfield. When Mr. Brainerd was teaching in a night school in Cleveland, Ohio, which he organized, seeing the great advantage it would be to many who would otherwise be deprived of instruction, he was teach ing and illustrating his subject on a blackboard as his custom was. He noticed during the lecture a little boy who had entered the room and seemed very much in terested both in the drawing and in what he was saying. After the lecture Brof. Brainerd called him up and, after talking with the boy and seeing what a bright, intelli- . gent little fellow he was, found out that his name was Garfield, and that he was occupied in driving a canal boat during a greater part of the time. Prof. Brainerd made him promise that whenever he was in Cleveland he would come to the evening school, for, said Prof. Brainerd, you must learn all you can, for who knows but you may be Bresident of the United States some day. Sixth Generation. 151 One of tlie first dispatches President Garfield received, on his nomination, was one of congratulation, saying that " truly Prof. Brainerd's prophecy had come true."

Brainerd, 1149 Superior St., Cleveland, 0., Nov. 26, 1891, Thanks giving day. At the family reunion there were several fine speeches which I would like to insert in this place, but which must be omitted for lack of space. I give only Emma (Coe) Brainerd's. " THE BRAINERDS BY MARRIAGE." To me has been assigned the pleasant, but by no means easy task of telling what I know about Brainerds by marriage. The fact is, after a married life of more than twenty years, I know a great deal more about Brainerds by blood than the other sort. But as I belong to this other sort I will be obliged to beg your indulgence while I inflict you with a fragment of personal experience along that line. Nearly a quarter of a century ago, a partnership was formed under the firm name of Brainerd and Co(e), and having been all these years the silent partner in the enterprise I have had ample opportunity for observation. In the first place this was a very evenly formed partnership and neither could boast over the other of earthly possessions, as each partner's pocket contained only a few shillings. Their place of business was fitted up in comfortable though by no means palatial style. Two rag carpets and six wooden chairs served all the necessities of household and business uses. The firm prospered however, and during the first decade four other members were added to the firm who were any thing but silent, and this Brainerd firm is known throughout our rapidly growing city, and as far south as Portage County. Well, it is a pretty good name too. Why, in my younger years I've seen the time when to be a Brainerd was better than to be a king. We would not have you think however that this partnership was like Hobson's choice, for The men, they sued — the men, they wooed But " no sir " was the word, 'Till on a day, I think 'twas in May, There came a man Brainerd His suit was long — His words were strong — In truth he came to win Till sorely pressed — I said " I guessed," And then we married in. I am very sorry I cannot tell you as much about these other Brainerds by marriage. They are here today, and their well kept appearance gives evidence of their having been equally well courted and well fed. And now to you Brainerds by blood, let me say, that however you may regard us, we 196 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. consider ourselves as invaluable to your welfare and prosperity, as well as very important factors in handing the family name on into futurity and for my part do not see how you could very well get along much further Without us. What's in a name — it might be Jones, or Smith, or Brown, We might be living in hut or hall, in city or town. Be we but true and noble in thought, in deed, in word, The name will pass for naught, so I'll be named Brainerd. 366.

Philander and Elizabeth ( ) Washburn of Middleboro, Mass. She was an artist and has gained much celebrity as a painter. They were divorced. She is now in Boston, and he is in Bacine, Wis. He went to Wisconsin in the territorial days with his father's family. At the age of six years he learned to set type in the office of The Sheboygan Times, and rapidly attained proficiency, remaining there until the autumn of 1849, when his father, receiving the appointment of Deputy Collector of the Court of Green Bay, removed to that place. He was then nine years of age, and spent the most of his time in the office of The Green Bay Advocate, where he became a favorite. During his residence in Green Bay his boy associates were German, French, and Indians. At the end of two years he spoke French and German as well as his own language, and had mastered for the purpose for all ordinary con versation tlie Menominee and Oneida Indian dialects. As a result he was offered at the age of eleven and one- half years a clerkship in one of the leading stores at a man's salary. He held the position for more than a year, when his father, by reason of change in the administra tion, was retired from office, and removed to Waupaca, Wis. Charles was given the test of driving three cows overland, a part of the way by a blazed trail, from Green Bay to the new home in the forest, which lay something like 100 miles directly west from Green Bay. His com panion was an intelligent horse, and in five days he made the journey in safety, although with many adventures. On the first of November, 1853, just as the sun was setting behind Mt. Tom, he crossed the rickety bridge that brought him into the new town on the Indian land, and oh ! how forlorn it was ! There was no school announced for the coming winter, and he went to Stevens Point, and entered the office of The Wisconsin Pinery, then recently established. Here he stayed until the following summer. In 1859, then aged nineteen, he made a bold break for liberty, and one day announced that he was going away not to return until he had secured a collegiate training. He worked and studied; entered Bacine College in his 20th year, went through a collegiate course; graduated in 1864 with the 206 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. valedictory, the prefix gold cross, the purple tassel, which indicated headship, and the best of all the " gold tassel,'' an English University honor for perfection in studies and discipline throughout the course. After leaving college, a three years' course in theology at Nashotah was followed by ordination to the Episcopalian ministry, a year's service in Milwaukee with the late Bishop Armitage, when he went to the Atlantic coast. He had a parish in Quiney, Mass., and in Milwaukee, Wis., for three years, devoted several months to travel in Florida and other parts of the south, and on his return, in 1873, laid aside a clerical calling by joining the Catho lic Church, and entering the profession of law. He was admitted to the Massachusetts bar in 1875, the United States bar in 1877, and enjoyed a lucrative practice. Gradually, however, he floated into literary work, until it occupied a large portion of his time, and for twenty years he has been a valuable contributor to the leading magazines and newspapers of the United States. The second volume of the Cyclopedia of American Biography has about four hundred articles written by his pen. He is a writer for The North American Review and The Chicago Times. He contributed the articles on Lyman Beecher and his sons, also on Thomas Hart Benton, in the American Biography, first volume of Appleton's Cyclopedia. An article on " Automatic Musical Instru ments" appeared in Appleton's Annual Cyclopedia of 1885, and in the same year one on " Safe Deposit Com panies," in the annual of the same publication, and in 1886 an article on " Litz, the Musical Composer." He is fond of natural history pursuits, and has collected many thousands of specimens, nearly all of which have been deposited in two colleges, the Jesuit College in Bos ton and Bacine College, his " alma mater." Bacine gave him a Master of Arts hood in 1867, and now offers him a chair newly established, which he has entered upon. He drew up a bill to provide for greater safeguards for people charged with being insane, making radical changes in the initiatory proceedings, and the bill was before the Legislature in Wisconsin, March, 1889. In form he is five feet ten inches, straight as an Indian, an athlete, a skilled rider, an active worker, a finished writer, musician, scholar, critic, and conversationalist.

His earlier education was received in Cleveland, Ohio. In 1883, he went to Europe for the purpose of study, perfecting himself in the ancient and modern languages, Latin, Greek, French, German, and Italian. In Avignon he attended the famous Jesuit Seminary, where Petrarch Laura , is buried, and also gave considerable attention to the study of the Provencal tongue of the South of France. He re ceived his theological education in the Western Theological Seminary, in Chicago, and was a candidate for Holy Orders in the Diocese of Chicago, and was ordained to the Epis. Ministry, Mch. 19, 1890, and was installed a Canon of Trinity Cathedral, in the city of Cleveland, by the Rt. Rev. J. A. Leonard, Bishop of Ohio, who also ordained him. Within the past two years, he has written a great deal, and published some 40 poems, besides numerous articles on various subjects. In 1890, he was engaged in literary work. The following poems drew out the favorable criticism of Oliver Wendell Holmes, and have been frequently copied. THE HERO OF CONEMAUGH VALLEY. (Before the frightful rush of waters which brought death to twelve thousand people in the Valley of Conemaugh, an unknown man, mounted on a large bay horse, rode madly down the turnpike, shouting, " Run for the hills; fly for your lives." Dashing onward with the flood behind him, he never checked his desperate speed, or ceased his cry of warning, till the great wave of foaming waters submerged him.) On, on, on, along the Conemaugh Valley, With a wild, impetuous rush, a horse and its rider are dashing, Flinging the stones of the pike to the right and left in their madness; Never slacking their pace, as the man sits firm in the saddle, Bending down to the neck of the bay horse, plunging onward, The face of the man is ashen, like the clouds which hover above him, Hanging low, like a pall, o'er the Conemaugh's swift rushing water. Pale and stern is his face, as if filled with a fierce resolution; All aflame are his eyes, and his lips pressed tightly together, As if some terrible fate, some awful doom was impending, Which followed closely behind and ready to spring without warning. On! on! on! the mighty wave is approaching; On! on! on! the rider flying before it, Bringing warning of danger, to the unconscious people of Johnstown. See! He turns in his saddle and gazes sternly behind him; Par, up the valley, he sees a mountain of water. High as a cliff, and its summit like the mighty waves of the ocean, Tossed in a, thousand forms, and bringing death and destruction. Only a moment he looks, then darts he on with his mission, To give the warning in time, to save the people of Johnstown. On! on! on! no fear of his turning for safety. On! on! on! for he rides, the salvation of thousands. Hark! Hark! to his cry, as it rings far over the valley; Loud as a trumpet's call, to the startled people of Johnstown. " Fly ! fiy to the hills ! the torrent is coming ! " On! on! on! and the rider is passed in a moment. Some jeer at the warning, and laugh, while others fly to the mountains; But on ! on ! on ! he darts like an angel avenging. See! He has gained the bridge, and speeds like an arrow still onward, Bearing the message of danger to others far down in the valley. Hark! to his cry, ringing loud; a rush — it is silent forever, As the surging waters engulf the horse and its rider together. Long will his wild cry ring in the ears of the people of Johnstown; Long will his memory live in their hearts and the hearts of the nation; Long will the story be told of the Hero of Conemaugh Valley! Cleveland, Ohio, June 6, 1889. Seventh Generation. 209 DEATH. (For the Old Homestead.) "Oh death, where is thy sting? Oh grave, where is thy victory." ^1 Cor. XV.: ver. 55. How fearful, strange and terrible seems death, When those we love are stricken mute and still And lie before us silent, cold, unmoved To see the tears of anguish on our cheeks, To hear the voice of children asking for a kiss From lips which death hath sealed forevermore. How like a curse, a plague spot on our hopes, A horrid mark stamped deep upon our hearts Death seems, when one on whom we lavish love Unbounded, pure, unselfish in its aim, Has from our bosom cruelly been torn And covered from Our sight beneath the earth, Which never looked so merciless and cold As when it lay in heaps beside the grave. No sound on this great firmament of ours, Though all the world should battle, wound and slay Each other in a contest to the death, Though all the winds of heaven joined in one Should rush destroying, with a deafening sound From east to west, encompassing the earth, Though every act of human cruelty Which man has done unto his fellow men Should once again be wrought before our eyes, And strike us mute with horror, dread, and fear, No sound, on earth, in sky, no act of man Can wring the human heart, the soul, the mind, Can torture it and make it shriek again, As does the sound of heavy, falling earth Upon the coffin where our all seems lost. To ye — whose lot in life has often been To stand beside the death-bed and the grave, To watch the feeble breathing, hear the sigh, To see in every varying form and mode The awfulness, the mystery of death — • I speak, and ask one question, and am done; Are we but born to suffer and to die? To die, and pass to nothingness? A sphere Where body, soul and spirit cease to be? Dost thou believe in God's almighty power? Dost thou believe Him merciful and just? Dost thou believe that being merciful To us, His children, whom He loves and guards, It is His will, His purpose — when our years Hang like a. burden on our wasted forms. — To end this span of three-score years and ten By death, and nothing more beyond to come? Dost thou believe that after death, a life Immortal, blest beyond the ken of man, Begins? Ah! If thou dost, then death itself, Though it should rob thee of thy dearest wish, Take friends and kindred, leave thee desolate, Alone, to battle with the cruel world, Is but an open doorway to a sphere, Bright with God's smile, His love, His tenderness Where those we love stand ready, open-armed, 210 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. To welcome us, to leave us nevermore. Oh! death, where is thy sting, thy poison now? Where is thy power, where thy bitterness ? No more thy sceptre shall o'errule the world And bind the minds of men beneath its sway; No more shall mankind bend beneath thy will, And fear thee, as a slave his master's lash; God's blessed promise in our Lord fulfilled Has scattered to the four great winds of Heaven Thy awfulness, and thy mysterious power; The grave is swallowed up in victory, Through Jesus Christ, forever more!

He left home at the age of nineteen, and enlisted in the regular army, Sept. 18, 1876. He was immediately as signed to the Second United States Cavalry, then serving in Montana Territory. He participated in the many arduous campaigns, inaugurated about' that time against the hostile Sioux Indians, under Sitting Bull, the Nez Perce Indians, under Chief Joseph, and the Bannock tribes under various chiefs, and was once wounded in the face and right hand while in action with hostile Sioux, May 7, 1876. He was promoted to the rank of Corporal, and later to that of Sergeant. In May, 1880, while serving at Ft. Assiniboine in Northern Montana, he volunteered for duty on the Howgate Folar Expedition, and was ordered to Washington for that pur pose. The enterprise having been abandoned, he was ordered back to his station on the frontier. Early in the spring of 1881, however, Lieut, (now General) Greely, Hnited States Army, requested his detail on the Lady Franklin Bay Expeditionary force for duty in the Arctic regions, and he was accordingly selected. On his arrival in Washington, Lieut. Greely appointed him first Ser geant of the Expedition, which post he held during the three years the party was absent from tne civilized world. In 1882, with Lieut. Lockwood and one Eskimo dog driver, Frederik, he traveled along the northwest coast of Greenland, reacning, on May 13th, latitude 83° 24' north, longitude 40° 46' west, the then nearest to the north pole ever reached by man. The following year, with Lock- wood and the Eskimo, he crossed Grinnell Land, reaching the western sea at Greely Fiord. Lockwood and the Es kimo subsequently died, leaving Brainard the sole sur vivor of the " Farthest North." August llth, 1883, the party abandoned their station at Fort Conger, Grinnell Land, in latitude 81° 44' north, longitude 64° 45' west, and retreated southward along the Grinnell Land coast. When near Cape Sabine they were compelled to abandon their steam launch, and all boats except one, and for over a month were drifted about helplessly in Smith Sound, on frail ice floes which momentarily threatened to disinte grate and engulf them in the seething, icy waters. After much suffering, however, they reached land, and erected a small hut on the barren and desolate coast near Cape Sabine, Ellesmere Land, where they remained from October, 1883, until June 22, 1884. At no time during the winter did they have more than thirteen ounces of food per man per day, and at last even this meagre al lowance became exhausted, when they subsisted on their sealskin clothing, seal thongs, shrimps caught in the tidal crack, rock lichens, and an occasional aquatic bird. The 220 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. weather was extremely cold, and all through that long and dreary Arctic night their sufferings were intense, and without parallel in the history of Arctic enterprises. When rescued by the relief expedition under Commander (now Admiral) W. S. Schley, United States Navy, only seven of the original party of twenty-five men remained alive, Brainard being one of the number. Gen. Greely recommended him for promotion in the following words: "It is justice to add that Sergeant Brainard was, of necessity, repeatedly assigned by me, in connection with the work of the expedition, to an officer's command, and that his conduct was uniformly such as to win commenda tion. Apart from his valuable services in the field, I be lieve he possesses qualities which merit reward, and which would render his promotion to the grade of Second Lieut. in the army most suitable. I most heartily recom mend such promotion." And again, speaking in his re port of Brainard in connection with the issue of pro visions during their last winter in the Arctic regions, Gen. Greely says: "The issue of our last regular food leads me to speak of Sergeant Brainard's services in that connection. Faithfully and fairly for all our services he issued food and all other supplies. In his equity and even justice all had full faith. Personally he made all the issues, kept all accounts, and reported to me weekly or otherwise as ordered. His safe and careful estimate of unknown weights of bread and meat were of incalcula ble benefit in the spring. The scores of pounds which these estimated supplies overran were sure testimony as to what I firmly believe, that in all that terrible winter no ounce of unauthorized food passed his lips. In less lawful and more unscrupulous hands, these gains would never have been reported. That a starving man for months could handle daily such amounts of food and not take for himself speaks volumes for his moral cour age." Brainard was transferred as a Sergeant to the Signal Corps, United States Army, with station in Washington City, " for special distinguished services while on duty with the expeditionary force organized under the acts of Congress, approved May 1, 1880, and Mch. 3, 1881, to establish a station north of the 81st degree of N. latitude, at, or near Lady Franklin Bay, for the purpose of scientific observation." In July, 1886, "as a recognition for his effective services rendered during the various explorations carried out by the American Arctic Expedition of 1881-4," he was awarded the Back Grant of the Eoyal Geographical So ciety in the form of a valuable testimonial watch, beauti fully and appropriately inscribed. Oct. 22, 1886, Bresident Cleveland appointed Brainard a 2d Eighth Generation. 221 Lieutenant in the Second Eegiment of Cavalry, United States Army, " as a recognition of the gallant and meri torious services rendered by him in the Arctic Expedition of 1881-4."

He was justice of the quorum for Middlesex County in 1722 and '23 ; was elected a member of the Governor's Council (Senate of Connecticut), which he held during life. He had command of a regiment. He held the office of jus tice of the peace. His house was located between Walk- ley Hill and Higganum, north of the village of Haddam. He was a farmer. The History of Wallingford, Conn., said: "At the Oct. session of the General Assembly, 1726, a grant of 300 acres of land in the town of Goshen was made to John Hull of Wallingford, James Wadsworth of Durham and Hezekiah Brainerd* of Haddam, for public services." It was called the Esquires Farm, from its being given to those persons, each of whom had the title of Esquire. He became a man of great distinction and influence. Eev. Dr. D. D. Eield said in The History of the Towns of Had dam and East Haddam, That under the disadvantages of education common in his day, he acquired extensive knowledge. Early called also by divine grace, he gave himself up to the practice of religion. He used to keep days of private fastings to promote his spiritual welfare, was much in prayer, and had particular evidence that his prayers were heard and enjoyed strong and abiding con solation and hope. His mental and moral worth soon attracted public notice and he was raised to the station of an assistant in the colony of Connecticut, which station he held till his death. On a proposition to establish a Court of Chancery in the state, he was selected as the judge, though the court was never organized. The wor shipful Hezekiah Brainerd d.

The house stood a short distance from the river at an eleva tion of perhaps one hundred feet from the water and about eight or ten feet from the turnpike road, commanding a fine prospect of the river, both to the north and south.

David Brainerdf was son of Hezekiah Brainerd and his wife, Dorothy Hobart, who had been, at the time of her marriage to Hezekiah Brainerd, for three years, widow of Daniel Mason, grandson of the celebrated Capt. John Mason, conqueror of the Bequots. In view of the ex traordinary career of their distinguished son it will be in teresting to discover what traits of these parents had come to them by inheritance, to be in turn transmitted to their children. As also the life of Brainerd was powerfully affected by the peculiarities of the little settlement where most of his life was spent, a study of his surroundings will not be out of place. Hezekiah Brainerd had obtained more education than was customary for the young men of his day. As unusual difficulties beset the way of a youth in pursuit of knowl edge at this eauy time, when all New England hardly sufficed to support Harvard College, and all other schools were few and poor, we certainly may suppose that he. possessed an unusually keen thirst for knowledge, as well as a vigorous and well-balanced mind and great perse verance amid difficulties. This certainly reappears in the son, who stood at the head of his class and was noted for his scholarship and patient endurance of hardship. His public services and the offices which he held at a time when public places were filled only by the most * Colonial Records of Connecticut, Vol. VII, p. 114, May, 1727. Resolved by this Assembly.

He represented his town in the General Court, was also one of the Council, and died at Hartford, while there in performance of his public duties. His father, Daniel Brainerd, who had come to New England when a boy of eight years, and lived in one of the well-to-do families of Hartford, Conn., until his majority, had been also re spected by all, and had been justice of the peace and dea con in the church. Further back we cannot go. Of David Brainerd's inheritance from his mother fortunately we can speak with much more certainty, and doubtless we have here another instance of what has been often noted in the lives of celebrated men. Like many others he had a gifted mother. She was the daughter of Jeremiah Hobart, one of the five sons of the Bev. Beter Hobart, the celebrated minister at Hingham, Mass., four of whom be came ministers. Bev. Jeremiah Hobart preached at Tops- ' field, Mass., then removed to Hempstead, L. L, and finally settled in Haddam, Conn., where he died in the 85th year of his age. He went to public worship in the forenoon and died in his chair during the interval between the ser vices. The mother of Dorothy Hobart was a daughter of Bev. Samuel Whiting, one of the most able of the Puritan ministers, first at Boston, in England, and then at Lynn, Mass., being noted for his learning, tolerance, and likings for the pleasanter sides of life. His wife, Elizabeth St. John, the mother of Dorothy Hobart, was sister of Oliver St. John, Chief Justice of England under Oliver Crom well. It will thus be seen that from his mother David Brainerd inherited the results of generations of affluence and culture, and more particularly that some of the best blood of the Puritan era flowed in his veins. Some of the best fruit of the Puritan emigration to New England and the best traditions of Harvard College were, we may be sure, the legacy of Jeremiah Hobart to his daughter and her son. Of Haddam in those early days, a little will suffice. Settled in 1662 by twenty young men from Hartford and vicinity, it had grown slowly and at the time of David Brainerd's birth contained about sixty families. Its area was large, arable land was scarce, forests covered its great hills and the Indians were threatening. Its situation was remote from the principal towns of the colony, many of its people removed across the river to occupy better lands, and its growth was slow and its conditions rude and primitive. Bev. Jeremiah Hobart was succeeded by Bev. Bhineas Fiske, who held the pastorate from 1714 until 1736. The terms of his settlement show the poverty of the town. They had much land, but little ready money. They offered their minister as his settlement a home lot of six acres, forty acres on the neck, twenty acres of timber, Second Generation. 45 thirty acres from the commons, a new house to be built for him, " 42 ft. by 19 ft. and 16 ft. between joints (two stories), with a lean-to 10 ft. wide the whole length of the house, a stone cellar and a stack of chimnies with three smoakes below and two above the chambers." The "smoakes" were probably fireplaces, built of the gray gneiss, with which the town is liberally supplied. In fact the visitor's attention will probably be drawn to the rocks as the most abundant product of the town. It is but fair to say that the stone quarries have been an important source of income to the owners of Haddam. Mr. Fiske had to supply nails and glass for his house. These had to be imported and the townsmen gently shifted the chief part of the expense upon the reverend gentleman, whc enjoyed the use also of the parsonage lands, one day's work annually from the hands and teams in the town, within two and one-half miles of him, £35 in money the first year, £45 the next, and so on up to £70 per annum. His salary afterward rose to £110. His pastorate seems to have been pleasant, in marked contrast to that of Mr. Hobart's. The pastor was certainly as well off as any of his parishioners, but was probably obliged like them to labor with his hands to make out his living. In 1718 the town decided to build a new meeting house, 36 ft. by 44 ft., and 20 ft. in the clear. This was completed Sept., 1721, and was shingled and clapboarded, plastered inside with lime made from oyster shells, and had cedar lath. This house had pews and galleries. In this house David must many times have attended worship, to hear long sermons, and much Calvinistic divinity. The Indians still reserved the right to fish and hunt in the town, and gave the people much trouble, so that they had to carry arms for even fifty years after the settlement of the town. The sight of the Indians must have been a familiar one in the streets and forests of the little settlement. William Scovil was the first schoolmaster employed by the town, about 1708. The school was kept in an ordinary house and no payment for a schoolhouse appears on the town records before 1728. It is uncertain whether Brainerd had his early edu cation here or not. Perhaps he was taught at home, or by the minister. As a whole the tone of the place must have been ordinary, and its manners extremely crude and provincial. Little news came from the outside world, and its mental state must have been a narrow one. Yet some of the people arose to greater things, and it could not have been an altogether ordinary town which nur tured a son of such noble fibre as David Brainerd. At the age of fourteen he was left an orphan. He was at this time a thoughtful boy, with a tinge of melancholy, which the loss of his parents and the barrenness and nar rowness of his education, according to the views of the 16 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. day, doubtless intensified. The loneliness of the frontier settlement where he was living also had its effect. Then we must remember that his inheritance for several genera tions was one in which all the earnest energy and the re ligious fervor of several gifted Puritan families were united. Hence at an age when boys are usually acquiring more strength of muscle than power of brain, not to speak of religious strength, we find this boy filled with religious feeling. His continual self-examination, his highly sensi tive and melancholy temperament and his inherited trait of piety combined to produce in him that highly exalted state in which he saw visions of light, and felt the actual presence of the Invisible. The account of his conversion is very striking. I will give it in his own words. " I was from my youth somewhat sober, and inclined to melan- cholly; but do not remember anything of conviction of sin, worthy of remark, till I was seven or eight years of age. Then I became concerned for my soul, and terrified at the thoughts of death; and was driven to the per formance of religious duties; but it appeared a melan- cholly business, that destroyed my eagerness for play. " But though, Alas ! this religious concern was but short lived, I sometimes attended secret prayer, and thus lived at ease in Zion, without God in the world, and without much con cern, as I remember, till I was about thirteen years of age. In the winter of 1732 I was roused out of this carnal security, by I scarce know what means at first, but was much excited by the prevalence of a mortal sickness in Haddam. I was frequent, constant and somewhat fervent in prayer, and took delight in reading, especially Mr. Janeway's Token for Children. I felt sometimes much melted in the duties of religion, took great delight in the performance of them, and sometimes hoped that I was converted, or at least in a good and hopeful way for heaven and happiness, not knowing what conversion was. The Spirit of God at this time proceeded far with me. I was remarkably dead to the world, my thoughts were almost wholly employed about my soul's concerns; and I may indeed say, ' Almost I was persuaded to be a Chris tian.' I was also exceedingly distressed and melancholy at the death of my mother, in March, 1732. But after wards my religious concern began to decline, and by de grees I fell back into a considerable degree of security, though I still attended secret prayer. " In April, 1733, I removed from my father's house to East Haddam, where I spent four years, but still without God in the world ; though for the most part I went a round of secret duty. I was not much addicted to the company and amusements of the young; but this I know, that when I did go into such company, I never returned with so good a conscience as when I went. It always added new guilt, Second Generation. 47 made me afraid to come to the throne of grace, and spoiled those good frames with which I was wont sometimes to please myself. But alas! all my good frames were but self-righteousness not founded on a desire for the glory of God." In 1737, being nineteen years of age, he removed to Dur ham, where he began to feel the longing for a liberal edu cation* — " from mere natural principles," he himself says, though here he does himself injustice. It was the de mand of his soul for its birthright, though he knew it not, for a liberal education. He, therefore, at the age of twenty applied himself to prepare for college in such studies as were then required. He became very strict and watchful over his thoughts, words, and actions; because he designed to devote himself to the ministry and imagined, as he says, " that I did dedicate myself to the Lord." The next year he went to live with Mr. Fiske, the pastor of the Haddam Church, who doubtless directed his studies preparatory for college. This clergyman ad vised Brainerd wholly to abandon young company, and associate himself with grave, elderly people, which council was faithfully followed. The outward exercises of re ligion, reading the Bible, frequent exercises in prayer, close attention to sermons, participation in young people's meetings, and thoughts of joining the church, now occu pied his mind. Thus he went on for some time, continually increasing in his self-righteous opinions, so far as even to wonder at the levity of professing Christians, till he was suddenly ar rested in his fancied security. " In the winter of 1738, it pleased God, one Sabbath morning as I was walking out for prayer, to give me on a sudden such a sense of my danger, and the wrath of God, that I stood amazed, and my former good frames presently van ished. From the view which I had of my sin and vile- ness, I was much distressed all that day, fearing that the vengeance of God would soon overtake me. I was much dejected; kept much alone; and sometimes envied the birds and beasts their happiness, because they were not exposed to eternal misery as I evidently saw that I was." Here in Brainerd's own words is the beginning of a spir itual struggle which lasted fully two years. It was in tense, long, awful. In proportion to the earnestness of his soul, and his faithfulness to his youthful teachings in the cardinal points of Calvinism, the unequal contest con tinued, tending now this way, now that. He cried and prayed to God; hundreds of times he renounced all pre tenses of any worth in his religious duties. Then after a day of comfortable feeling he would hope he had made a * He commenced his classical studies while under the preaching of Mr. Chauncey, or immediately after returning home. 48 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. good step toward Heaven. Another day he would set apart as a day of fasting and prayer, spending the whole day in incessant cries to God for mercy. This would give him some comfort, which was only to be replaced by a keener pang of distress. " Once," he says, " a terrible pang of distress seized me, and the thought of renouncing myself, and standing naked before God, stripped of all goodness, was so dreadful to me, that I was ready to say to it, as Felix to Paul, ' Go thy way for this time.' " Now horrified at the supposed wickedness of his heart, his emo tions would swing to the opposite extreme, and he grew remiss and sluggish, and then renewed views of his sin would make him fear the ground would open under his feet and become his grave, and send him quick to hell be fore his time. The many disappointments, distresses and perplexities put him now , into a new danger. He fancied he was contending against God. Now begins his struggle with the gloomy doctrines of Calvinism. He enters their dark shadow, God's designs and decrees, im putation of Adam's sin to his posterity, the strictness of the divine law, all become to him scourges to wound his sensitive spirit. He analyzes his feelings, argues the case against himself, and concludes he is abandoned by God, that the divine mercy is withdrawn from him, that he has committed the unpardonable sin, and that God had as signed him a place among the damned. The fragment found among his papers headed " Some gloomy and de sponding thoughts of a soul under convictions of sin and concern for its eternal salvation," is a most distressing index of his feelings at this time. It is a wonder that his reason was not unhinged, or that he did not harden into atheism. One is irresistably reminded of Bunyan in a similar situation. There are many points 'of likeness between Brainerd and Bunyan, though the latter lacked the keenness which comes by education, which was so much more added to the burden in Brainerd's case. He suffered all the more keenly because his mental eye was so clear. But no Ananias, no Evangelist came with a word of comfort to this youth. Not a word of comfort from human lips seems to have reached him. He records none. He fought this battle alone. At last, one Sabbath evening, as he was walking alone, feeling lost and helpless, mournful and melancholy, senseless and stupid, unspeak able glory seemed to open to the view and apprehension of his soul. He disclaims any external brightness, or any heavenly vision. He was not of such an ecstatic or imaginative type. But his soul rejoiced with joy un speakable in a new conception of the goodness and merci ful nature of God. The scales had fallen from his eyes. Henceforth, though with many fluctuations of feeling he was consciously a child of God, and this consciousness Second Generation. 49 with increasing force cheered him to the end. He had received an apostolic conversion. He had tasted that cup of bitter struggle. Hereafter, through many a new trial, the comfort of an apostle was to be his. In September, 1739, he entered Yale College with many mis givings as to his ability to withstand the special tempta- tions^of college life. But in general he seems to have enjoyed much precious communion with Christ, and much joy in divine things. Once while sick he seemed much depressed, but this disappeared with the malady. A new danger now assailed him. He applied himself to study so closely as to break down his health, probably weakened also by the years of spiritual conflict he had passed through. The malady, likely hereditary, which finally terminated his career, appeared. He began to spit blood, and was advised to go home to recuperate. This he did. His health rallied to the extent that after a few months he was able to return to college, to find himself now in the midst of the excitements of the great religious revival then agitating New England, and in fact the English churches on both sides of the sea. He entered most heartily and possibly with indiscreet zeal into the ' meetings of the revivalist preachers who were then labor ing in New Haven and vicinity. The rector of the college, the Bev. Mr. Clapp', cordially disliked this, to him, dis orderly preaching, and fined the students who went with out leave to Milford to hear Mr. Tennant. Brainerd was one of those who thus incurred the displeasure of the col lege authorities. About this same time the rector had ex pelled the two Cleveland brothers for attending a separate meeting with their parents at Canterbury, Conn., and it is not surprising with this temper in the rector that Brainerd met the same fate. In the winter of 1742, after one of the tutors had been more pathetic than usual in his prayer, Brainerd was overheard to say, " He has no more grace than this chair." A tell-tale brought this to the ears of the rector, who by methods best known to himself, ex torted the information from those present that it was Brainerd who had said this of one of the college tutors. It was now demanded that he should make a public con fession for what he had said in private, but this he refused to do, and was expelled. Brainerd was at this time at the head of his class, the largest that had ever entered the institution. It must have been a severe blow to his hopes, and a man of his sensitive nature must have suffered from the injustice of a punishment now used only in the case of serious moral delinquency. There is evidence in his diary that he felt the undeserved disgrace of the expulsion very keenly. Yet this trial, like many others he had, sweetened and purified his character under circumstances in which most men would have been hard- 50 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. ened or embittered. On his death bed he destroyed so much of his diary as reached from Jan. 1, 1741, till April 14, 1742, because of the "imprudences and indecent heats " into which he had been carried by " a tincture of the intemperate and indiscreet zeal " then prevalent. He afterwards repented so far as to make a most ample apology to the college, but this was rejected, as were also the entreaties of a council of ministers at Hartford, be fore whom Brainerd spread his case. Without at all trying to justify the arbitrary action of the college authorities, it may be said that to understand fully all the causes, near or remote, which led to the conditions of affairs under which this action became possible, would require a study of the religious state of New England for a period of at , least fifty years previous to 1742. Space will not permit this subject to be opened here.* The expulsion of Brainerd undoubtedly hastened the found ing of the College of New Jersey at Brinceton, and the election of Jonathan Edwards as its first president shows to which side of the great contest its founderi leaned. Dartmouth College also profited from this episode, as a large number of students who went from Connecticut seems to prove. Leaving the college, Brainerd went to pursue his theological studies with Mr. Mills of Bipton and the neighboring ministers, a course which was then customary, as there were no theological seminaries. On July 29, 1742, he was licensed to preach by the Association at Danbury or Fair field. His first sermon was from I Peter, IV : 8, and was delivered at Southbury. It is plain that his early preach ing, though powerful, was not far removed from the sensa tional, as he afterwards sorrowfully admitted. For the next few months he preached in various parts of Connecti cut, often in places where the fierce controversies of the time had caused a division of the churches. It appears that he was always on the side of the new party, though condemning the great extravagances committed by some of them. At this time, in fact, he was looked upon as one of "the most disorderly strolling preachers," against whom the Legislature had passed a law worthy of Queen Elizabeth or Archbishop Laud, and he had to be very cau tious to avoid imprisonment at New Haven for having preached at the Separate Society there. Later he came to look upon his course at this time with great confusion and regret. But making due allowance * The reader who desires to investigate this period is referred to Pro fessor Walker's History of Congregationalism in American Church History series, published by the Christian Literature Co., New York; to Prof. B. Wendell's Life of Cotton Mather; to Jonathan Edwards' Works, and to the histories of the " Great Awakening," and many other works relating to this period. Second Generation. 51 for the severity of his self -judgment, we shall not go far amiss if we regard him as an unusually industrious scholar and an effective and forceful speaker, with a re markable power to judge the state of his hearers, and to express in fitting language the various moods of the awakening souls about him. His long struggle before his own conversion had doubtless been the cause of this power of spiritual analysis, in which Brainerd has scarcely ever been excelled. Truly, his prospects for a successful career in the ministry were bright indeed. It appears that for some time he had secretly hoped to be able to preach the Gospel to the heathen, and to see them flock home to Christ. But his disgrace at college had • seemed to preclude all this. But in November, 1742, the situation was changed by a letter from Bev. Ebenezer Bemberton, who asked him to come immediately to New York to confer with the correspondents of the Scotch So ciety for the Promotion of Christian Enowledge. This so ciety was aiding the Presbyterians in the sparse settle ments of New Jersey and Pennsylvania, and now desired to found a mission for the Indians. It would be interesting at this point to give an account of the various attempts to preach the Gospel to the Indians, but our space for bids it. Suffice it to say that Brainerd's name here ranks with the Mayhews, the sainted Eliot, and the others who labored in that early day in New England for the salva tion of the redman. This letter from Mr. Pemberton at once put Brainerd's heart in a flutter. He says, " My mind was instantly seized with concern, so that I retired with two or three friends and prayed, and it was indeed a sweet time to me." He journeyed to New York quite oppressed by the weight of the decision he was about to make, but casting his burden on the Lord, went cheerfully through the ordeal of examination and preaching before " some grave and learned ministers." The result of this appears to have been highly satisfactory to his listeners, for he was at once selected as the future missionary to the Indians. In the first impulses due to his new situation, Brainerd, thinking that he should have no occasion among the In dians for the property left him by his father (though he afterwards found himself mistaken), selected a dear friend, Nehemiah Greenman of Stratford, Conn., and pro posed to him to undertake the preparation necessary for the ministry at his (Brainerd's) charges. This proposal Greenman accepted, and for three years, until Brainerd's death,"he was regularly supported in the cost of his educa tion. Greenman was for many years pastor of Pittsgrove, in West Jersey. Thus it was that Brainerd accepted the injunction of his Master, and imitated Him and His apostles by literally forsaking all and following Him. •2 H — 39 52 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. Brainerd expected to go to the Indians at once, but as the Correspondents did not wish to begin the mission in the winter, he accepted an invitation of the people of East Hampton, and preached there a number of weeks. At this time he experienced a return of distress and inward conflicts, as he says in a letter to Bellamy, written in' Feb ruary, 1842 or '43. Still he preached often, riding many miles to do so, with some degree of power and pungency, as he thought. Still neither these depressions, nor the possibility of a settlement in the comfortable parish of East Hampton caused him to look back from the course he had chosen. Early in the spring he turned his horse's head toward the west, and by way of New York, pressed on to Newark, and soon was ordered by the Correspondents to proceed to the Indians at Eaunaumeek,* " in the woods between Albany, N. Y., and Stockbridge, Mass." This place was about five miles northwest of New Lebanon, on the road to Albany. The nearest white people spoke only Low Dutch; a Scottish Highlander was the only person 'with whom Brainerd could converse. About twenty miles dis tant was Mr. Sergeant, who had labored with the Indians since 1735 at Stockbridge, though without much success, because be was unable to master the Indian language. He supplied Brainerd with a good interpreter and with some wise advice. The Indians received the new missionary kindly and listened attentively. Two of them were specially concerned, and one told him privately that her heart had cried since she heard him first. Here he in structed the Indians by translating through the inter preter, as nearly verbatim as possible, English discourses, and he also translated several forms of prayer suited to the circumstances of the Indians, as well as a few psalms, " that they might sing in the worship of God." Thus he was laying the foundations. In June, 1742, he visited the Correspondents and obtained permission to set up a school and to make his interpreter the teacher of it. Thence he journeyed to New Haven, Conn., to try once more to effect a reconciliation with the rector. At the Commencement in the fall he renewed the attempt, this time with the advice of Jonathan Edwards, whom he met for the first time. Thus it came to pass that the greatest trial and disappointment of Brainerd's life brought him into communion with the man who was to perpetuate his memory. The name of the devoted mis- * From Barber's Historical Collections. David Brainerd commenced his labors among the Indians in 1743, at a place called Kaunaumeek, south east of Albany, near Kinderhook; from this place he went to the Forks of the Delaware, near the line between New York and Pennsylvania. His greatest success was among the Indians at Crossweeksung, near Freehold, in New Jersey. Second Generation. 53 sionary to the Indians is hereafter linked .with that of the keenest metaphysician and theologian of New England, and the two will be associated in the memory of the gen erations to follow. The Correspondents also interceded for Brainerd at this time. He prepared an ample apology, and the authorities so far yielded as to promise the degree if he would reside in the college for a year. This the Cor respondents would not consent to, and so the matter ended. " I was witness," says Edwards, " to the very Christian spirit he showed at that time." His disappointment was the greater, because he would have taken the highest honors if he had been permitted to take his degree. He now returns to his Indians, and labors among them with some indications of encouragement. To escape the con fusion of living in a wigwam, he built a hut for himself apart. He could not get bread within twelve or fifteen miles ; he made cakes of Indian meal and fried them. He suffered much by sickness and by riding in the winter to Stockbridge to study the native language with Mr. Ser geant. In March, 1744, the Indians removed to Stock- , bridge, and Brainerd was directed by the Correspondents to go to the Forks of the Delaware. On the way he met a messenger from East Hampton with a unanimous call for him. It was the pleasantest town in Long Island and one of the largest and most wealthy parishes. The people of MiUington also, near his native place, desired him to settle with them. What struggles these invitations caused in his mind we are not told. He admits that he felt some desire to go to East Hampton, but writes in his journal, "Eesolved to go on still with the Indian affair." He now crossed the forests between the Hudson and the Delaware, and reached a frontier settlement of Irish and Dutch people, who showed some concern for religion. The Indian Chief at the Forks also received him kindly and he preached most of the summer from his house or wigwam. During this summer he was duly examined and approved by the Presbytery of New York, at Newark, N. J. He was judged uncommonly qualified for his work. His old friend, Mr. Pemberton, was very kind to him, and sent him on his way with much warmth and eloquence. For the next two years Brainerd was in full activity over a wide extent of territory. It is impossible here to enumerate all the occasions of his preaching, his many miles of riding on horseback through the forest, his strug gles with weakness and disease, and his wonderful out going in spiritual wrestling with God. What a spectacle ! Judged by men to be uncommonly fit for his mission, he was really wearing himself out with labor and hardships too great for his strength. No Christian of the earlier centuries ever went to a surer martyrdom than he ! yet with what a spirit! The pages of his diary, written in 54 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. the solitudes, intended for no human eye, bear witness to the state of his mind at this time. There is not space here to delineate all the phases of his heart and the won derful outgoings of his soul to God in these two years of incessant toil. Only a transcribing of his diary could do justice to these wonderful experiences. Those who wish to follow them will go to the original source, Brainerd's. own writing. His ordination took place on June 11, 1744. Though weak and sleepless, and yet with comfort in his soul, he jour neyed back to his post a few days later. For the next six weeks he preached to the Indians as often as he was able, spending much time in prayer for their conversion, and in self examination. Felt much perplexed with wander ing, vain thoughts. " Was much grieved, judged and condemned myself before God ; " felt himself " more brutish than any man." At another time he goes to preach to his Indians with a heavy heart. Another day, in more than usual distress and gloom (which followed invariably upon a long, hard ride or more exposure than usual, showing the extremely weak and nervous condition he was in, totally unfit for such a work), he cries out, " I thought that there was not one creature living so vile as I. 0, my inward pollution ! 0, my guilt and shame before God! I know not what to do. 0, I longed ar dently to be cleansed and washed from the stains of in ward pollution j 0, to be made like God, or rather to be made fit for God to own ! " Loathing and abhorring him self ; self distrustful, with a sense of the greatness of his work, and his need of divine help, longing for holiness and humility, praying for fitness and for the conversion of the Indians, mid pain, discouragement, and sickness, much opposition and misrepresentation, he struggled on for more than two years. At last the blessing came, in a measure he little dreamed of. Later in the -summer of this year (1744) his illness was less severe. His mind and spirits were brighter and stronger. He preaches more fervently to the Indians and notices signs of religious concern among them. He had also much comfort from the visits of some ministers who came to see him. In September he rode to New England on horseback, being absent about three weeks, gaining much in health and strength. He returned to the work for the Indians with new energy, journeying through "the hideous wilderness," as he called it, as far as the Susque hanna Biver, in company with Mr. B}Tam, minister at Bockciticus, his interpreter, and two other Indians. One evening his horse caught his foot in the rocks and broke his leg. Brainerd was obliged to kill him and journey along on foot. Thankful for his own escape from injury, he lay down by a fire, sheltered from the severe frost only Second Generation. 55 by a few bushes, and slept quietly in the open air. A few days later they came to an Irish settlement, and the In dians being gone, the two ministers preached to the whites. November finds him again at the Forks of the Delaware, where we find him writing to Mr. Bemberton, a long ac count of his labors and success so far in the missionary cause. The same day he started for New York to attend the meeting of the Presbytery there ; being much exposed on his return to the weather, cold and storms, he was taken very ill and detained some time by reason of sick ness. In December he was working very hard, with others, to make himself a little cottage or hut,* to live in by himself through the winter. He was continually preaching to the Indians, but was greatly disheartened to see most of them go to an idolatrous feast and dance, after he had done his best to dissuade them. All through this winter his weakness and sickness constantly followed him. In February he rode to Greenwich, N. J., where he preached, and rode eight miles to visit a man at the point of death. The man died, and comforting the mourners, he returned in time to preach again, and after that held an after-meeting to talk with some persons interested in religion. In the evening rode home again, eight miles, and was in a very solemn and tranquil frame. Is it any wonder that the next day he was " exceedingly weak and much exercised with vapory disorders " ? In March, 1745, Brainerd again journeyed to New England, being absent in all about five weeks. He visited at this time various ministers in New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut, endeavoring to obtain money " in order to support a colleague with me in the wilderness (I having now spent two years in a very solitary manner), that we might be together, as Christ sent out his disciples two and two ; and as this was the principal concern I had in view in taking this journey, so I took pains in it, and hope God will succeed it, if for his glory." He was free from melancholy at this time, enjoyed much refreshment with his friends and preached many times with much effect. Scarcely had he returned from this journey when he un dertook another to Philadelphia to gain the help of the governor in obtaining the consent of the chief of the Six Nations to his (Brainerd's) living on the Susquehanna, * " The world is always bettered by rendering true honor to its true men. It is therefore gratifying to learn that a short time since in 1893, a party of students from Lafayette College went to Martin's Creek to dedicate a monument to David Brainerd, missionary to the Indians, erected by the Young Men's Christian Association of the college. It was there that Brainerd built his house, December 6th, 1744, and wrote much of his memorable journal and labored among the Indians with marked success, so that many converts were gathered." A hall called Brainerd Hall is connected with Lafayette College, Easton, Pa. It is the Y. M. C. A. building of the college. 56 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. and instructing the Indians there. He appears to have succeeded in this, for in May he started for the Susque hanna with his interpreter. This journey was a perilous one, for he almost perished in a severe northeasterly storm. He visited many of the towns and settlements of the In dians, and saw some of seven or eight tribes, preaching to them through different interpreters. These Indians were much opposed to Christianity, and Brainerd was greatly discouraged thereby. Here he found some of his old hearers at Kaunaumeek, who were very glad to see him. Even here a few were willing to listen. In a fort night he was on his way back, when he fell extremely sick with the dysentery, and almost died in the utter lack of medicine and everything suitable for treatment. But by lying still for a week in a trader's hut he recovered so far as to be able to ride. Going down the river as far as Jun- cauta Island he returned to the Forks on May 30, having ridden in all 340 miles. Though very weak on his return he preached to the Indians and to the whites, and a week later rode nearly forty miles to Neshaminy, to assist at a sacrament at Mr. Beaty's meeting house, being invited by him and his people. Though very weak, he preached daily for the next three days, with great effect, so that many scores, if not hundreds, in the assembly of three or four thousand, were moved to tears. The next day he rode to Maidenhead, and rested for a week. We now come to that part of Brainerd's career when he was most signally successful as a missionary. It was so crowded with labors and events that it is possible here to give but a sketch. Having patiently sowed the good seed in much hardship and pain, he was granted to reap the harvest himself, before he was called into the presence of the Lord of the Harvest. On the 19th of June, 1745, Brainerd removed to Crossweek sung, a place about twenty miles from Amboy. Here and at Cranberry, about fifteen miles distant, he labored until failing health compelled him to give up his work alto gether. Here was the scene of his most wonderful suc cess. (The Forks of the Delaware, his former station, near the present Easton, Fa., was about eighty miles from Crossweeksung, in a northwesterly direction.) He found the Indians here very much scattered, but well disposed and attentive. He was constantly preaching and teaching these Indians during this summer, sometimes addressing them twice in one day, so great was their desire to hear him. Finding some relaxation necessary, he spent about a week in New Jersey, visiting several ministers, and returned to his own house at the Forks on July 12th. Preaching here again to both Indians and whites, the word was with power. The Indians were much affected and wept. On Second Generation. 57 Ju]y 21, he baptized his interpreter and his wife, the first whom he had ever baptized among the Indians. Brain erd's sketch of his interpreter shows that he was an In dian of unusual character. In truth, much of Brainerd's success was, under God, due to the faithfulness and in telligence of this man, who knew the English and Indian tongues well, and learned to respond to the various emo tions of Brainerd's preaching. July 31st he was again at Crossweeksung, where he found his Indians unusually serious, they having been addressed bv the Eev. WiUiam Tennant during his absence at the Forks. During the month of August the great revival was in full force among them. Brainerd was constantly preaching, exhorting, guiding, and comforting them. He spoke, he says, with uncommon freedom. The very power of God seemed to be with him. The most stubborn hearts were obliged to bow. A self-righteous Indian was brought to weeping and repentance; one old man who had been a murderer, a powwow or conjurer, and a notorious drunkard, cried for mercy with many tears. In fact this was universal. Many were prostrated, and cried out incessantly. He addressed many whites during this time also, some of whom were serious, but many merely spectators. Brain erd says severely that some of them behaved more inde cently than any Indians he ever addressed. He continued his labors between the Forks and Crossweeks, alternately, until late in October. During this time he made another tour to Philadelphia for the governor's aid and again went among the Six Nations on the Susquehanna as far as Shamoking and Juncauta Island. It was during this tour that he met the famous Indian powwow or reformer, whose appearance was so grotesque and horrible, and talked with him about Christianity, and tried even single handed to break up the barbarous dances and incantations of the Indians over their sick. Eeturning again to the Forks and Crossweeks, he starts for East Hampton, Long Island, whither he had been invited to an ecclesiastical council, and did not return until Oct. 24th. On his re turn he resumed his preaching and instruction of the In dians. A strong religious movement was still apparent among them. On Nov. 4th, he writes, " I have now bap tized in all 47 Indians; 23 adults and 24 children, 35 of them belong to this region, and the rest to the Forks of Delaware. Through rich grace, none of them, as yet, have been left to disgrace their profession of Christianity by any scandalous or unbecoming behavior." These num bers are small in themselves, almost insignificant. On the score of numbers Brainerd's work cannot compare in success with that of Eliot, Mayhew or Bourne in eastern Massachusetts, by whose labors some thousands of praying Indians were induced to adopt some measure of civilized 58 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. life. But we must measure these results, not «by the num. bers, but by the spiritual power put forth. In this Brain erd was mighty, and he has continued to live in memory and influence, though his Indians are but a forgotten name. At this time he wrote a considerable account of the work of grace he had conducted among the Indians, with justification of his own labor and their character, in which he states that since March of last year he had ridden more than three thousand miles on his missionary tours. Still ever intent on the welfare of his beloved Indians, he set off on a journey through various parts of New Jersey, in order to get a collection for the use of the Indians, and to obtain a schoolmaster to instruct them. Lord's day, Nov. 10th, finds him preaching at Elizabethtown, with ample signs of conviction of the hearers. Soon he is at New town, Long Island, at the meeting of the Presbytery, and at Elizabethtown, and on Nov. 22d, was at home at Cross- weeks, and incessantly preaching and exhorting, publicly and privately. This continues all this winter and up to June, 1746. Though interrupted by many journeys, he preaches instant in season, wherever he can, to Indians or whites alike. It was a period of almost unceasing activity, though often clouded by days of gloom and weakness. He writes to his brother, John, a candidate for the ministry, and destined to become Brainerd's successor in the mis sion : " I am in one continued, perpetual and uninter rupted hurry ; and divine Brovidence throws so much upon me, that I do not see how it will ever be otherwise." He seems to realize that his time is short and works forward with feverish haste. December 8th he occupies a house at Crossweeks, the third he had built among the Indians, and spent much time in procuring the necessary articles for housekeeping. In this month also he considered his Indians ripe for Assem bly's Shorter Catechism, and institutes a class for their instruction therein. He says he found that their doc trinal knowledge exceeded his expectation. During this winter he met with many remarkable conversions among the Indians, which he has recorded with detail in his journal. They are deeply interesting. In March he was very ill and weak, and was obliged to take care of the schoolmaster, who was taken suddenly very ill. He was obliged to wait on him constantly, and to lie on the floor at night. In the summer of 1746 it became very evident that Brain erd's hardships and incessant toil had undermined his health completely. Throughout this summer he was very ill, and in great pain, but he still kept up his preach ing and journeys, meeting with Bresbytery, etc. Aug. 12th he set out once more for the lower Susquehanna, Second Generation. 59 with six Indians from his congregation as aids, keeping nearer the settlements and avoiding the wilderness. He kept up his labors until Sept. 20th, when he was again with his people at Cranberry, where he hopes he can rest. He was now in the midst of pulmonary consumption, coughing and spitting blood. His diary from this point is often interrupted and grows more and more frag mentary. On Nov. 24th he writes to his brother, John, then a student at Yale College, that he had determined to visit New England that fall and winter, but that now the state of his health was such that he could not. He knows that he has consumption, and several times had thought that death was near, at which he felt no. terror, but rather a desire to depart. Throughout the winter he was confined to the house, and did not attend public worship from Dec. 21st to March llth. In the last month he tried once more to see his beloved Indians, but was under great dejection, and could do 'no. more than ex plain a psalm and pray with them. On Friday, March 20, 1747, he bade his Indians farewell, and left Cran berry. He remained in New Jersey until April 20th, during which month he exercised some ministerial func tions and experienced some comfort of mind. He went from New Jersey to East Haddam about the beginning of May. Four weeks later he journeyed by easy stages -to Northampton and was lodged by invitation at the house of Bev. Jonathan Edwards — Edwards had first met Brainerd about four years before at the time he offered the confession to the rector of the college — and his opinion of Brainerd's character is worth quoting. He says: "I found him remarkably sociable, pleasant, and entertaining in his conversation; yet solid, savory, spir itual, and very profitable. He appeared meek, modest and humble; far from any stiffness, moroseness, super stitions, demureness, or affected singularity in speech or behavior, and seeming to dislike all such things. We en joyed not only the benefit of his conversation, but had the comfort and advantage of hearing him pray in the family from time to time. His manner of praying was very agreeable. (In another place Edwards says, ( al most inimitable.') I know not that I ever heard him so much as ask a blessing or return thanks at table, but there was something remarkable to be observed, both in the matter and manner of the performance." It is well to weigh the words of so eminent a judge as Edwards in this matter. His diary is so much a mirror of his in ternal feelings and struggles that the impression he made upon others needs to be set to correct and supplement it. At Northampton he was told by the physician that he could give no encouragement of recovery, and was told that continued riding would tend to prolong his life. 60 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. Therefore, he concluded to ride to Boston, which he did slowly, making the acquaintance of ministers by the way. While in Boston he was taken extremely ill, alid was greatly prostrated, so that his death was constantly ex pected. At this time, he says, his mind was more clear and serene than at any other time in his life. At this time, even when speechless, he could write, and his let ters to his brothers, Israel and John, and to a special friend, a candidate for the ministry, are very remarkable. Many persons of note visited him while in Boston, and even in his illness he took every opportunity to speak on religious topics. The Indians too were not forgotten. By the help of a legacy, the Commissioners were now able to support two missionaries among the Six Nations, and they consulted Brainerd upon the choice of the proper persons, and virtually left the matter with him. Though he expected every day would be his last, he, greatly to the astonishment of all, recovered so far as to go out of doors again. July 19th he was carried to the Old South Meeting House, and heard Dr. Sewall preach, and partook of the Lord's supper, at which he was greatly up lifted, and heard Mr. Brince preach again in the after noon. The next day he left Boston and, traveling slowly, reached Northampton a week later. His brother, Israel, had journeyed to Boston to see him again alive, and ac companied him to Northampton. He now bade him a final farewell, and from this time he grew weaker and weaker, and unable to leave the house. The last time he ever attended worship, was the public lecture, Sept. 2d. Even in his great weakness, he found time to write let ters, or in his diary, and to give directions about the future work among the Indians. At this time he wrote a preface to the diary of the famous Thomas Shepard, first pastor at Cambridge. The manuscript had lately come to light, and Brainerd was urged to write the preface by thosewho had charge of the publication at Boston. The diary was published with his preface. In September he was unexpectedly refreshed by a visit from his brother, John, who brought him good news about the state of the Indians, and the manuscript of his diary, kept for so many years past. He read over these writings and was refreshed by them. Even m his weakness he was writing long letters relating to the selection of the two mis sionaries already referred to, and at his recommendation Elihu Spencer of »East Haddam and Job Strong of Northampton were selected. Mr. Spencer was ordained and went to the Oneidas, 170 miles west of Albany. He wrote also regarding the disposal of a gift of £200 from benevolent persons in Boston for the support of another schoolmaster among the Indians, and £74 more for special expenses on behalf of the mission to the Six /; ¦/?

He was at this time m an exalted and even ecstatic frame of mind. His brother, Israel, came again and was with him to the end. His exalted state of mind continued almost to the end and his expressions at the time are wonderful. On the 2d of October Brainerd was still in the same calm and peaceful state. David Brainerd died Oct. 10, 1747. His farewell to Jerusha Edwards, the daughter of Eev. Jonathan Edwards, to whom Brainerd was betrothed, though he never mentions it in his writings, was very sweet and touching. She herself was remarkably pious, • and tended Brainerd cheerfully through his long illness. The last few days he suffered great pain, but endured it with patience. His brother, John, returned again from New Jersey just before the end, in time to receive his last thoughts for his beloved Indians, and towards morning, after a night of great anguish, he fell asleep. It was Friday, Oct. 9, 1747. His funeral was held on the Mon day following, and was attended by a large number of people, and eight ministers, a larger number than a hun dred would be now. The funeral sermon was preached by Edwards. It contains a masterly tribute to his char acter and life work. We may measure the stature of the man by the impression produced upon the greatest divine of New England, and that vas not a slight impression nor a fleeting one. Brainerd's own writings show a compact and vigorous style, one of the marks of a well-trained mind. His journals were published during his life time, in England. His diary, which was only saved from destruction by the earnest entreaty of those who knew its value, was pub lished with biographical narrative in 1749 by Jonathan Edwards, and it was fortunate that so remarkable a writing should have so great an editor. Brainerd's fame has been in a measure enlarged and perpetuated by the labor of Edwards. In itself the diary is one of the most remarkable books of the kind ever written, and has met with world-wide acceptance. As a book of devotion it ranks with the " Imitation of Christ " and the very best manuals of experiential religion.* * It has been often republished in whole or in part. The great John Wesley abridged Edwards' life, and a still smaller abridgement was pub lished in England by John Styles. This has been frequently republished in England and America. In 1822, both The Journal and The Life having heen many years out of print, S'ereno Edwards Dwight, the editor of Jonathan Edwards' complete works, republished them both, The Journal, inserted in its proper place in the diary, -with the sermons of Pemberton and the funeral sermon by Edwards. This is the most complete edition of Brainerd's writings. This book having become scarce, was in 1891 re printed, with an introduction on the life and character of David Brainerd, by Rev. J. M. Sherwood, and an essay on God's Hand in Missions, by Rev. Arthur T. Pierson, D.D. The introduction is written in a very 62 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. Brainerd's direct significance for the direct cause and progress of missionary enterprise is considerable. We have already mentioned the impression produced by his life and death upon Edwards. In 1747 Edwards pub lished a tract urging a " visible Union of God's people in extraordinary prayers " for the speedy coming of Christ's kingdom, and instances the destruction of the French fleet (1745) before Louisberg as a signal instance of answer to the prayers of New England. This tract was widely read in England, Scotland, and in America, and produced permanent fruit. It was an important epoch. The American Colonies were just stirring with a new sense of their destiny, and events of politically great im portance occurred in the next generation. Edwards' tract had also, no doubt, been inspired by his knowledge of Brainerd's labors and writings, and so in a measure we may justly attribute to them an important influence in the history of missions. His example was a great incentive to the early missionaries in the latter part of the eigh teenth century, who went forth with little support from home, to meet terrible obstacles among the heathen, and to win immortal glory as the founders of modern mis sionary enterprise, which has encircled the globe. Brain erd was in a sense the forerunner of Carey, Henry Mar- tyn, Swartz, Buchanan, Harriet Newell, Judson, Liv ingston, and many others who like him have spent their lives in preaching the gospel and carrying light and civili zation to the uttermost parts of the earth. Dr. Sherwood in his edition of the life of Brainerd said: " No eulogy can exalt such a man. The simple story of his Hfe proves him to be one of the most illustrious characters of modern times, as well as the foremost mis sionary whom God has raised up in the American Church — one whose example of zeal, self-denial, and Christian heroism has probably done more to develop and mold the spirit of modern missions and to fire the heart of the Christian Church in these latter days than that of any other man since the apostolic age. One such personage, one such character, is a greater power in human history than a finite mind can calculate." sympathetic manner, by one who understands and honors Brainerd's mem ory, and is highly to be recommended. Besides these, Brainerd's life has been written by Mr. B. O. Peabody in Sparks's American Biography, by Jesse Page, in popular and somewhat excessively rhetorical form. Shorter lines can be found in Sprague's Annals of the American Pulpit, and Webster's History of the Presbyterian Church of America. The memory of Brainerd has also been kept alive in the names of churches, chiefly Presbyterian, in New York City, and in the region of his labors. Several of the above mentioned editions and books have been used by the writer of this article, in its preparation. As the facts of Brainerd's life and his writings have been so long common property, he deems this sufficient acknowledgment. Photo, by F. G. Morris, Northampton, Mass.

A table monument of sandstone was erected over the grave of David Brainerd at Northampton, Mass., by friends who revered his memory, and the inscription upon this having become effaced by lapse of time, a white marble tablet was inserted in the horizontal slab, bearing the following inscription: " Sacred to the Memory of the REV. DAVID BRAINARD a faithful and laborious Missionary to the Stockbridge, Delaware, and Susquehanna Tribes of Indians, who died in this town Oct. 10, 1747, M. 32." By whom the original stone, and the renewed inscription were erected we do not know, but the inscription is in error as to his age. Brainard was in his thirtieth year when he died. Near it stands the gravestone of his fiancee, Jerusha Edwards, in scribed thus : * JERUSHA Daughter of Jonathan & Saeah EDWARDS Born April 26, 1730, Died Feb. 14, 1748. " I shall be satisfied when I awake in thy likeness.'' " Rev. Jonathan Edwards, the American Divine, born Oct. 5, 1703, ordained Colleague Pastor with Rev. Solomon Stoddard in this town, Feb. 15, 1727, dismissed, June 22, 1750. Died of smallpox in New Jersey, March 22, 1758." [Edwards's remains do not lie here.] Adjoining these stones is a memorial of another great preacher and theologian; and here by intention, no doubt, we see grouped three great names : " Rev. Thomas Chalmers, D.D., the Scotch Divine, and projector of the Free Church. Died of apoplexy May 30, 1847, in his 67th year. " God is love." [Chalmers's remains do not lie here. He died and was buried in Edinburgh, Scotland.] In 1894, some students from Lafayette College, went to Martin's Creek, near Easton, Pa., and dedicated a monument to David Brainerd, erected by the Young Men's Christian Association of the College. It was here that Brainerd built his house Dec. 6, 1744, and wrote much of his memorable journal. In their native town of Haddam, Conn., no memorial of any kind had ever existed of the two famous missionaries. [Singularly, too, there is no memorial to their father, Hezekiah Brainerd, who died in Hartford, Conn., where his gravestone may be seen in the ancient cemetery.] In 1904, plans were begun which a year later resulted in the erection, near the site of the house where they were born, of a fitting and enduring monument to the 'missionary brothers. It consists of a large bowlder of native stone, uncut, to which is attached an inscribed tablet of bronze. The memorial is located by the roadside between the villages of Haddam and Higganum, about twelve rods west of the site of the ancient homestead. The Congregational Churches of Haddam and Higganum united June 8, 1905, in services in honor of the missionary brothers, David and John Brainerd, and the memorial was dedicated by prayer and song. Copied by Rev. F. G. Morris of Northampton, Mass. til- Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. It was expected that an address upon David Brainerd would be given at this time by President Ethelbert D. Warfield, D.D., of Lafayette College. He was prevented from coming owing to illness in his family, and the Rev. Thomas C. Richards spoke in his stead, giving a brief sketch of Brainerd's life, and said that he was remarkable, not so much for what he accom plished, as for the influence of his life and character. Samuel J. Mills's mother told him the story; Carey read his life; Henry Martyn, Parsons of Syria, Marsden of New Zealand, were other missionaries who received impulse from this one short life. Frederick W. Robertson records the in fluence upon himself- of the man whose motto was, " To believe, to suffer, to love." Mr. Richards was followed by Professor Curtis M. Geer of the Hartford Theological Seminary, who gave an address on John Brainerd. In his inspiring dedicatory address, Rev. W. J. Tate, the pastor of the church at Higganum, contrasted the work of these brothers with that of the Jesuit missionaries, in that the Brainerd brothers gave the red men the truth and with it their lives. Good soldiers of the cross, they marched not to drum-beat, but to pulse-beat, and heart-beat, not to found empires, but characters. These addresses were given in the meeting-house of the Haddam Church, of which the brothers were members. At the rock an introductory address was given by Rev. E. E. Lewis of Haddam, followed by a historical paper on David and John Brainerd by Miss Eveline Warner Brainerd, read by Rollin U. Tyler of Haddam. Miss Brainerd wrote that the ancestry and surroundings of the Brainerd brothers were typical of the whole people and life in the regions beyond the seaports and larger towns during the first hundred years of New England. Tlie grandfather and three great grandfathers of the two boys emigrated from England on account of religious persecution or for greater freedom of effort as well as worship. They were either ministers or farmers and of yeoman stock. There were nine children, in the Brainerd family and when the father died David was 9 and John 7 years old. There were two younger children and one of the older sons was preparing for college. There was no easy task facing the widow, but she came of staunch stock and trained her household in the footsteps of her forefathers so that four of her boys entered Yale; three were preachers and the youngest died while studying for the ministry. Such were the people from whom sprang the two men. They spent their lives in labor for a vanishing race, than which there may be found on earth, no work bringing less of visible reward and demanding greater devotion to an ideal. The tablet was then unveiled by David Brainerd Ventres, a descendant of Rev. Nehemiah Brainerd, a brother of the missionary brothers. After the unveiling of the tablet, the hymn " Ye Christian heralds. go proclaim " was sung. Prayer was offered by Rev. C. F. Robinson of Clinton. The benediction was pronounced by Rev. John Allender of Middle- field. Following the exercises at the rock a luncheon was served at the Congregational Church in Higganum, where brief addresses were given bv Rev. C. F. Robinson of Clinton, Rollin U. Tyler of Haddam, and Rev. G. F. Bailey of Westbrook, a letter was read from Rev. Dr. Dwight M. Pratt, Cincinnati, 0., and addresses were given by Rev. John Allender and Hon. Cephas Brainerd of New York. The hymn " Stand up, stand up for Jesus " was sung and the benediction pronounced by Rev. C. F. Bailey of Westbrook. The following paper was also prepared by Dr. M. C. Hazen of Haddam: " David Brainerd has been called ' The Father of Missions.' He was better known in his time and at the present day in England than in his own country. He was employed by the Scotch Evangelical Society to go on his mission, and his life and diary by President Jonathan Edwards was widely read and made a great impression on the people of Great Britain as well as on his own countrymen. THE MEMORIAL TABLET TO DAVID AND JOHN BEAINEED, THE NOTED MISSIONAEIES TO THE INDIANS. Second Generation. 65 " It seemed fitting that a. memorial of this character, simple as he would have wished it to be, should be erected on this spot near his birth place, that he who runs may read this carefully prepared inscription honoring the man who honored God and whom God honored. The people of Haddam honor themselves in this act of justice to these two eminent citizens. "About 1780, William Carey, at the age of 18, on his shoemaker's bench read the life and diary of Brainerd, and asked ' If God can do such things among the pagans of India ? ' He fitted himself for the work, was an eminent pioneer in British India in the Baptist mission forty years and was a highly successful missionary and an eminently learned Sanskrit scholar. " Henry Martyn, an eminent missionary of the Congregational Church, says his career was suggested by reading the life of Brainerd while he was a student at Cambridge. " The people read of David Brainerd and loved him for his fastings and prayers, his privation and trials, for his humility and forgetfulness of self, 'in his devotion to the great work he had undertaken and so well accomplished, notwithstanding his feeble and failing health. An eminent writer says: — " ' If the greatness of a, character is to be estimated by the object it pursues, the danger it braves, the difficulties it encounters, and the purity and energy of its motives, David Brainerd is one of the greatest characters that ever appeared in the world. A nobler object no human or angelic mind could ever propose to itself than to promote the glory of the Great Governor of the universe, in studying and laboring to diffuse purity and happiness among his unholy and miserable creatures.' " ' His life and diary among the Indians,' says a celebrated English divine, ' exhibits a perfect pattern of the qualities which should distinguish the instructor of rude and barbarous tribes; the most invincible patience and self denial, the profoundest humility, exquisite prudence, indefatigable industry, and such a devotedness to God or rather such an absorption of the whole soul in zeal for the divine glory, and the salvation of men, as is scarcely paralleled since the age of the apostles." * Inscription on the Memorial Tablet. The tablet bears the following inscription : — Opposite this spot was born, April 20, 1718, David Brainerd. A servant of God. Wise in his knowledge of men ; Self-forgetful in his devotion; Of single-hearted humility; Careless of the dangers of the frontier ; Undismayed by failing health; He gave his brief manhood to the material and spiritual upbuilding of the Indians. He died at Northampton, Mass., October 9, 1747. Here also was born, February 28, 1720, his brother and chosen successor, John Brainerd, A missionary of life-long zeal and unswerving fidelity ; A chaplain in the French and Indian War; An honored trustee of Princeton College. He died at Deerfield, N. J., March, 1781. * This account of the memorial services at the dedication of the tablet was condensed from the article in The Hartford Daily Courant, for June 9, 1905, and from another article in The Congregationalist, of July 1, 1905, by Homer Worthington Brainard. " The ladies of Cranbury, N. J., today, named the pond in their village Brainerd Lake, after David Brainerd, a missionary to the Indians in the dim distant past." — From The New York Times, oi October 20, 1905. 66 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. 2. ix. Israel Brainerd, the youngest son and child of Hon. Heze kiah Brainerd, was a member of Yale College when his brother David was taken from his missionary labors by feebleness, and afterward by death. " This young gen tleman," says President Edwards, '"' was an ingenious, serious, studious, and hopefully pious person. There ap peared in him many qualities giving hope of his being a great blessing in his day. But it has pleased God, since the death of his brother, to take him away also." He died the following winter at New Haven, Conn., Jan. 6, 1748, of a nervous fever, after about a fortnight's illness, in the twenty-fourth year of his age. David Brainerd recommended to this brother, when he himself was in a dying state, a life of self-denial and devotedness to God, and an earnest endeavor to obtain much of God's spirit and gracious influence on his heart; representing how greatly ministers stand in need of them, and the unspeak able benefit of them from his own experience. Among many other expressions he said thus : " When ministers feel these special gracious influences on their hearts, it wonderfully assists them to come at the consciences of men, and as it were to handle them ; where as without them, whatever reason and oratory we may make use of, we do but make use of stumps instead of hands."

The will of Hezekiah Brainerd is right for his family as given in the Brainerd Genealogy, and by my investigations. Probably a mistake in the name Hezekiah has been made.

He was judge of probate for the district of East Haddam and Colchester for 35 years. In 1758 he went into the northern army in the capacity of a Major under Col. Nathan Whiting, and the two following years as a Lieut. Col. in the last French War, and acquired the character of a brave and good officer. In the war of the Eevolution his regiment was raised on the first call for troops by the legislature in May, 1775, recruited mainly in Middlesex Co., and in the eastern part of the Colony, inarching in companies to the camp around Boston, it took part in Eoxbury, and served during the siege until the expiration of term of service, Dec. 10, 1775.

His civil and military offices were an honorable testimony to his abilities. These, however, did not constitute his greatest glory. He lived the pure doctrines and obeyed the pure precepts of the Gospel. Few have given clearer evidence of a change of heart.

John Brainerd, the younger brother and successor of David Brainerd in the work of evangelizing the Indians, though a kindred spirit and perhaps equal in moral worth, did not possess the great talents nor the large acquisitions of his brother, David, yet his work was hardly inferior to his elder brother in the great qualities which go to make up the missionary character. The materials for an account of his life are scanty, and while the fame of his brother's life and work has gone over the earth, the name and work of John Brainerd are almost forgotten. He was born Feb. 28, 1720, in Haddam. Left an orphan at the age of twelve, he doubtless found a home with some one of his married brothers or sisters. What his early education was we may infer from what has been told of the early days of David Brainerd. But John does not appear to have suffered from melancholy distress of soul as did his more sensitive brother. He entered Yale Col lege in 1742 and graduated in 1746. What effect the ex pulsion of David from the college had upon his brother we are not informed. As there was always much affection between them, doubtless John was much distressed by the event. But for reasons which we may easily imagine, he completed his course without apparently breaking with the college authorities. With whom John studied theology after his graduation is not certainly, known, probably with Mills or Bellamy, as David had done. Our first introduction to John Brain erd after his graduation is by the diary of his brother, David, under the date of Apr. 10, 1747. He says, " Spent the forenoon in Presbyterial business. In the afternoon rode to Elizabethtown ; found my brother, John, there; spent some time in conversation with him." David, worn out by his trials and privations, and the prodigious labors he had performed, was on his way eastward, knowing that he could not resume the care of his beloved Indians. His chief care now was to find a successor for the work. In his brother he found a man of like temper with himself, who was willing to make the sacrifices and undergo the 72 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. toils necessary to the work among the poor Indians. The selection was approved by the managers of the mission, and John at once — four days after the meeting of David at Elizabethtown — went to David's people at Cranberry, N. J., and took up his abode in the cabin David had built there with his own hands. The Indians welcomed him joyfully. They had largely abandoned their roaming life and were endeavoring here to form a Christian village, yet we must suppose that great poverty and much savagery still clung to them. The Indians numbered over one hundred and twenty, seventy-eight of whom had been bap tized. The church members numbered about forty. There were fifty Indians on the Eancocas, near Mount Holly, and a few scattered families elsewhere. Besides ministering to these, the new missionary was expected to continue the work, as he had opportunity, of his brother at the Forks of the Delaware, and in the Susquehanna Valley. This was his parish, and here he continued to labor until 1755. In the first summer he was much dis tressed by the sickness among the Indians, by which some of the most religious of the converts died, and the heathen Indians were not slow to attribute this to the anger of the Indian gods against those who had become Christians. This attitude was very unfavorable to further success in the mission, but the missionary did not despair. In Sep tember he journeyed to Northampton to see David again, who was now on his death bed, and carried with him the precious diary which occupied the last days of the dying saint, he reading and revising as long as strength re mained. John tarried one week and returned to New Jer sey on urgent business, where he was detained by the sickness of the Indians. But true to his promise he re turned again to Northampton, which he reached two days before David's death. Up to this time John had regarded himself as only David's substitute in the mission. But now, returning again to Cranberry, he was ordained, February, 1748, and received the appointment from the society in Scotland to be mis sionary. During this winter he had with him Eev. Elihu Spencer and Eev. Job Strong, two young men chosen by David Brainerd to go as missionaries among the Six Nations in western New York. By failure of his health Mr. Strong soon gave up his efforts for the Indians, and settled in the ministry at Portsmouth, N. H. Mr. Spen cer established his mission at Onohauquanga, about one hundred and eighty miles west of Albany; among the Oneidas. The mission was a failure, though by no fault of his own. Discouraged by failure, and attracted by the vicinity of Brainerd, he abandoned the mission and was settled in the ministry at Elizabethtown, N. J., Feb. 7, 1750. He labored many years in New Jersey, and was Third Generation. 13 one of Brainerd's intimate friends. For two years the work at Cranberry may be considered to have been on the whole successful. But the increasing pressure of the white settlers, and their successful attempts in depriving the Indians of their lands, greatly disturbed them, and unjustly forced them to remove, and rendered missionary work more and more difficult. September 27, 1749, Mr. Brainerd received the master's degree from the College of New Jersey at Brunswick, since Princeton. For the next few years he worked for the Indians as much as possible, making long journeys to reach them, and expended much effort to enlist the interest of the authorities in their be half, but from necessity more and more connected with the work of ministering among the settled white popula tion. At last, in 1755, the state of the country became so threatening through prospect of war, and the Indians at Bethel (Cranberry) having parted with their lands and removed, that the missionary society, doubtless alarmed by the panic and confusion of the times, sud denly dismissed Mr. Brainerd from his office. This dis missal was a source of pain to Brainerd and his friends. Without complaint, however, he removed to Newark, where he had charge of the church until June, 1756, still longing for his work among the Indians. Then suddenly the society, seeing perhaps new openings for the mission, invited Mr. Brainerd to resume the mission, and again dismissed him within a year's time, a most remarkable policy, but perhaps justified by the trouble and difficulty of the times. We need to remember that the great strug gle for Anglo-Saxon supremacy was then going on, which was to end in 1763 with the complete victory of the Eng lish, but this result was still far in the future in 1756, and the dread of the French and their savage allies was enough to paralyze all missionary efforts. Under this trial and still heavier ones Brainerd bore himself manfully. On Sept. 17, 1757, his wife died after a long illness, leaving him with the care of three young children. He was also much affected by the deaths of Presidents Burr and Edwards within a short interval. These had been his staunch friends, and he must have felt much downcast. In 1758 the prospects of the Indians some what brightened. By treaty three thousand acres of land near Burlington, N. J., were secured and a new town called Brotherton begun. In the latter part of 1757 Brainerd was one of a committee to wait upon Eev. Jonathan Ed wards at Stockbridge, Mass., and invite him to occupy the presidential chair at the College of New Jersey (Princeton). In this he was entirely successful. One unforeseen outcome of this service was Brainerd's invita tion to take the work Edwards laid down at Stockbridge, where there was a congregation of Indians. This he de- 74 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. clined. In 1759 he served as Chaplain in the army.* In the month of May, 1759, by the request of Gov. Bernard and the Society's Correspondents, with the approval of the Synod, he gave up his charge at Newark, which he had held — though frequently absent for considerable periods — since 1755. In November, 1759, he settled again among the Indians. These were greatly reduced in numbers, many having perished or been taken in the war, while fighting on the side of the English. The whole number of Indians was about two hundred, in three or four scattered settlements, from twelve to seventeen miles apart. Brainerd had his headquarters at Brotherton. Two large counties, and parts of two more were in his parish. He says : " I have preached at eight different places on the Lord's day, and near twenty on other days of the week, and never fail of a considerable congregation, — so large and extensive is this vacancy." His hearers in cluded many white people, the only other preaching being some efforts by the Quakers. Many of the people were but one remove from a state of heathenism. This was in reality a hard and discouraging field. He worked hard and faithfully, building a dwelling house, schoolhouse, store, and mill for his people. In 1762-3 he was chosen Moderator of the Synod. In 1764-5 he reached the height of his influence in the Synod and in the affairs relating to the Indian mission. He was in cor respondence and active sympathy with Dr. Wheelock of Connecticut, whose labors in training Indian boys is well known. At this time it was proposed to send to England the Eev. Sampson Occum, one of the ablest of the Chris tian Indians, to arouse interest there, and to collect funds to endow the Indian school, which Dr. Wheelock and others were so earnestly promoting. Occum was very successful in England, surpassing even the expectations of his friends. Mr. Brainerd was at the time chosen to go with Occum and others to England. But plans were changed and he did not go, but continued to labor, faith fully, often under discouragement and financial loss, for his Indians and whites until 1777. The detail of these years are too numerous to be mentioned here, The reader who desires to study them is referred to " The Life of John Brainard," by Eev. Thomas Brainerd, published in 1865 by the Presbyterian Publication Committee; also for a general account of the Christian Indians, to " Sampson 'From the History of North Brookfield: Rev. Eli Forbes says "Rev. John Brainerd and myself had 400 invalids committed to our charge and were ordered to march with them to Albany, and humanity obliged us to advance our own money, and perform all kind offices for the relief of the poor distressed men who otherwise must have suffered greatly, there being no suitable hospital stores available. It was in the Crown' Point Expedition." Third Generation. 75 Occum and the Christian Indians of New England," by the Eev. W. D. Love of Hartford, Conn. A word about the subsequent fortunes of the Indians may not be amiss. Their number and strength steadily de clined and 'in 1801, having obtained permission to sell their lands, between seventy and eighty removed in 1802 to a settlement on the Oneida Lake, belonging to the Stockbridge Indians. The united tribes consisting of Christian Indians from New England, New Jersey and New York, again pressed by the whites in 1824, pur chased a large tract on the Fox Eiver in Wisconsin. Here they remained unmolested, and there their descendants, though not in large numbers, may be found today, useful and exemplary citizens. So that the work of the Brain erd brothers has survived the changes of a century and a half and still bears fruit. In 1777, aged fifty-seven, Mr. Brainerd removed from Brotherton to Deerfield, N. J., and took charge of the church there. He still seems to have retained some over sight of the mission. In the latter years of his life Mr. Brainerd preached the gospel among the whites over a vast, neglected region of New Jersey. When he died his labors were not followed up by the Presbyterians. The churches he built decayed or passed into the hands of the Methodists. The early settlers sold out to strangers of a more straitened class. As a result little remains to tell of Brainerd's labors save the church yards in the forests, the title deeds of the sites whereon he erected church build ings, the congregations which later built on his founda tions, and the recollections of him as a holy, benevolent, untiring servant of God. He says that he had seven fixed congregations and twenty occasional preaching places. He was for a time the only minister, and for years the /only missionary of his church in that wild and extended region. His removal to Deerfield was caused by the disturbance of war, then raging, and his declining health. He died at Deerfield March 18, 1781, and was there buried. For seventy years his grave was there unmarked, but at that time some one who revered his memory placed thereon a simple slab. For many years he was officially connected with Princeton College as trustee, and its early presidents were his per sonal and intimate friends. His interest in the college was strong, and he was zealous and faithful in discharge of his duties to it, serving it in many important and criti cal stages of its history. In determining Brainerd's success we should remember that he was in every respect a pioneer, with no predecessor to be a model ; with means of support by no means equal to his needs, and all the time fhe disturbance and confusion 76 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. of war. This intercourse with his brethren was regulated by a sense of duty and self-respect. His letters indicate careful compliance with the customs of good society and the courtesy of a gentleman. His writings compare favorably with those of his contemporaries in style and finish. He aimed at no display of talent or learning. He was exceedingly simple in preaching, but powerful and impressive. He was prudent sometimes to the point of indecision ; modest to the point of timidity. This may have been due to lonely work in the wilderness, and to his dependence on charity for support, and the haunting fear that his labors were unsuccessful and doomed to ultimate failure. He was involved in no contentions, gave way to no show of exasperated feelings, was swept away by no fanatical delusions or theological vagaries. He was a lover of all good men, and seems to have hated nothing but sin. He was holy and spiritual in his life, and his whole career bears testimony to his sympathy with ignorant and needy humanity. Of his writings but little has survived. A number of letters and a journal or diary, a small manuscript book of sev enty-seven pages are mentioned by his biographers. It extends from Aug. 15, 1749, to Nov. 21, 1749. It gives an account of work at Cranberry (Bethel), a journey over the Delaware, a visit to Princeton, various labors among the Indians during the summer and autumn, a tour to Elizabethtown. It is doubtless but a fragment of a more extensive diary which is now lost. The minutes of the Scotch Missionary Society at Edinburgh, Scotland, fur nish some other details of his life and work. These were used by his biographer. The written materials of his life are thus very brief. The fragment of his diary shows little or- nothing of that wonderful spiritual quality which has made David's journals a devotional classic. No speci mens of his sermons appear to be extant.

Thomas Miner, Jr., in childhood was in delicate health, yet he entered Yale College at the early age of fifteen, a fact which he afterwards regretted. He graduated in 1796. He then taught in Goshen, N. Y., about three years, and in Berlin about two years. He studied medicine with Dr. John Osborne of Middletown, Conn., and in the begin ning of 1807 entered upon his profession. He practiced in Lyme, Conn., from 1808 to 1810, where he married Phebe Mather, by whom he had one child, and where both the mother and child soon died. From Lyme he moved to Middletown, where he was much employed as a physi- Fourth Generation. 79 cian, and where he performed more service than his state of health could well endure. In February, 1819, he was seized with an affection of the lungs and heart, which suddenly ended, in a degree, his professional career, and left him a confirmed valetudinarian at the premature age of forty-one, though for several years after he practiced in consultation and amused himself in read ing two or three foreign languages, besides writing occa sional medical and literary essays, which appeared in the columns of different publications. In fact, in various • ways, he did much for the advancement of medical science and the relief and benefit of his fellow men. In 1823, in connection with Dr. Tully, he published essays on fevers and other medical subjects; and in 1825 an account of ty phus syncopalis (the sinking typhus) . This work Dr. S. B. Woodward speaks of as one which caused a great deal of controversy; one which was most severely criticised; but one about which, although the public was divided as to its real worth, they were generally satisfied that it evinced great erudition and research. "At any rate," he says, " it was one which gave the author great notoriety as a writer and great fame as a practitioner." Dr. Miner himself declares that it was published several times en tire, or in an abridged form in other works. After the organization of a medical school at Yale College he was perhaps three-tenths of the time one of the cen sors or a member of a committee. He was very active in efforts for getting up the Eetreat for the Insane at Hart ford, Conn., and with Dr. Tully wrote the committee's address to the public, which preceded the solicitation of funds. He maintained a large correspondence, among whom were many distinguished physicians of the country, and also men of literature and science. Noah Webster, LL.D., the great American lexicographer, sometimes sent him his manuscripts, soliciting remarks upon them. To him he wrote letters on criticism, etymology, and other philo sophical subjects. Having long been affected with a disease of the heart, he visited early in March, 1841, his friend, Dr. S. B. Wood ward of Worcester, Mass., to see what could be done to re lieve his sufferings, and, as he said to himself, if he could not be relieved, to die with him. With that friend he did die, on the morning of the 23d of April, and his body was brought back and interred among his friends in West- field. In communicating his death to Dr. Smith, editor of The Bos ton Medical and Surgical Journal, Dr. Woodward speaks of him as a remarkable man, and as having left behind him " few as ripe scholars, profound philosophers, and philanthropists in the medical profession," as having 80 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. given himself up " to study and reflection "• after ill health prevented his engaging in the active duties of his profession; he says, "his mind was very active up to the last ; " that he was well acquainted with the French, Italian, Spanish, and German languages, and was often employed by publishers in the country to translate them; that he was particularly fond of German and read works on medicine, theology and philosophy in that language with great pleasure." He also extols his moral qualities, his benevolence and kindness; speaks of him as exempli fying Christian character, and as having unbroken confidence in sickness and death in the Christian hope of a glorious resurrection. The people of Westfield, in addition to other considerations, have to remember him with gratitude for an important legacy he has left the Congregational Society. This con sists of a parsonage, estimated at one thousand dollars, and of lands estimated at five hundred and seventy dol lars. From Brainerd Genealogy by Eev. D. D. Field. 12.

He graduated at Yale College in 1763 as B.A., and studied medicine in part, if not wholly, with Dr. Benjamin Gale of Killingworth, now Clinton, Conn., and commenced practice in his native place, where he was the principal physician for many years, and where, particularly as an inoculator for the smallpox, he was eminent, many re sorting to him from Haddam and towns around for a remedy against that disease, so dreadful when taken the natural way. The smallpox caused considerable alarm soon after the Eevolution and on Jan. 11, 1787, the town granted to Dr. Hezekiah Brainerd the exclusive privilege to inocu late persons to prevent the smallpox for a term of four years, provided he should erect a building in which to receive for attendance such persons as should be infected with that disease. The following advertisement appeared in The Connecticut Courant of Nov. 5, 1772: "The Hospital in Haddam is now open and ready for the reception of patients. Gentlemen and Ladies may be well accommodated and every necessary found (wearing apparel accepted) and constant attention given, by the public's humble servant," Hezekiah Brainerd. On Jan. 17, 1793, in another advertisement he says he has been inoculating for six years past for the smallpox with the greatest success.

He was town clerk from 1815-1838, inclusive, justice of the Fifth Generation. 89 peace and member of the Connecticut Legislature three sessions, two of which were held May-October, 1791, and May, 1792. He, with his brother, Gen. John, early engaged in the quar rying business and for many years carried it on exten sively, employing many hands and sending stone to New York and other places in the country. They acquired a large property, much of which was devoted to benevo lent purposes. In June, 1839, they commenced building an academy on the homestead connected with the house in which the General lived, a short distance in the rear of his house, which was opened in the year 1840. It is built of gneiss stone taken from their own quarry. It is 60 ft. long and 34 ft. broad, and three stories, containing large rooms for study and recitation, standing on elevated ground on the west side of Haddam Street, some rods from the road. It commands a fine view of the Connecticut Eiver and the adjacent romantic scenery. The cost of the building, in cluding an estimate of the ground on which it stands and the yard about it, amounted to nearly $12,000. They gave subsequently the avails of some out land which sold for $520, for the purchase of apparatus; and after that the house in which the General lived, a stone store and some connected lands, all estimated at $2,000, which went into the hands of the Trustees at the time of his death. Besides these donations he gave a parsonage to the Congre gational Society, consisting of a good house, barn, and some lands which the society has leased for nine hundred and ninety-nine years, the avails of which were to go yearly to the support of the ministry. The Academy very appropriately bears the name of Brainerd Academy. The part which in the year 1878 was so generously given by the Field brothers to the town to commemorate the memory of their father, Eev. Dr. D. D.

He lived at St. Cloud, Wis., three years and then came to Stacyville in 1879. There he resided fourteen years, and they were -years of unremitting toil. He never spared himself and worked harder than his strength justified. Last spring he moved to Osage. He did not seek a wider field of labor; he wanted to give his family better opportunities and hoped in a short time to lighten his own burdens. He never saw a well day after coming to this place. Much of the time he was a great sufferer. He fully realized that his chances of getting well were few, and he thoughtfully arranged his business affairs. He was willing to die or to get well as the Lord willed. The summons came and he was ready. Dr. Brainerd was a man of wonderful energy and push. He put his whole soul into whatever he undertook. He labored up to the full measure of his strength and beyond it. He was a conscientious and successful physician. He was always willing to respond to a call even when one might be justified in refusing to go there. He often exposed himself to the severities of the winter, and undermined his constitution.

He made friends in an unusual degree, and was ready to do anything to add to their comfort. He was an earnest Christian man, and believed in the work of the church. He hoped after coming to this place to be more active than "he had ever been. His religion was a comfort to him in the closing hours of his life. Christ was his personal Saviour." Published in The Journal of the American Medical Association, Sept. 30th, 1893: "He received his medical education at the University of Buffalo, N. Y., graduating Feb. 23, 1875. After practicing a short time in Minn, and Wis., he removed in 1879 to Stacyville, Iowa, where he re sided until a short time before his death. Dr. Brainerd prized his pro fession highly and was regarded as one of the strongest men in regular medicine in Northern Iowa. At the time of his death he was a member in good standing in the County, State, and American Medical Associa tions. He was a faithful attendant at the meetings of these societies, contributing frequently by papers, which were listened to with interest. His memory will long be held in loving esteem among those who knew him as a faithful physician, a loyal friend, a noble man, and a Christian." 120 Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. bury, Hartford Co., Conn. ; m., June 27, 1867, in Bristol, E.

He inherited from his mother a sunny, sympathetic, enthusiastic temperament, which was, how ever, regulated and controlled by the caution and common sense, which were very marked traits in his character, and which came to him from his father. He early gave his heart to Christ, uniting with the Presbyterian Church of Red Wing, Minn., when about fifteen years of age. Later during his school life and young manhood, he was a member of the Congregational Church, of Zumbrota, Minn. Later still, and at the time of his death, he belonged to the Congregational Church of Stacyville. He was not only a skillful physician and surgeon, but outside of his profession he had great executive and business ability and served his town and church in many ways. He was president of the school board, and a man to whom others intrusted their business with the utmost confidence. He was always intensely interested in all the great questions of the times and stood ever on the side of right and justice. Why the Lord saw fit to call such a man in the prime of life away from this world where he was so well fitted to do good, is something which can not be understood here.

His name was probably Doyle and son of Michael and Elizabeth A. (Hickey) Doyle, and he took the name of Brainard, his mother's second, husband's name. It has been supposed that all who bore the name of Brain erd in the United States, were descendants of Daniel Brainerd, the emigrant ancestor who came to this country in 1649, and settled in Haddam in 1662. The records in the different towns, and letters from correspondents show that several families bearing the name of Brainerd have come to this country within a few decades, from Ireland and Scotland.

Whatever may have been the aspirations of the many persons whose names have been recorded on the preceding pages of this Genealogy, not one has attained the position as President of the United States of America. Many most honorably and worthily have filled places of trust and respon sibility and have held the confidence of the community in which they lived. The Word of Life has been carried to the perishing and needy in foreign lands, while our own beloved land, America, has not been overlooked in the early settlement of the country nor at the present time. By some the law has been maintained and its violators brought to justice. Some have sought to heal the bodily infirmities, to restore strength to the weak, that they might hold a longer lease of life. Other active business pursuits have claimed the attention of many, but the greater number have been engaged in the more quiet occupations, as tillers of the soil and mechanics, respected by the communities in which they lived, leading consistent and devoted Christian lives, as the testimony of friends frequently has asserted. A hasty review shows that 856 have been agriculturists, 192 editors, 58 mechanics and ministers, 55 lawyers, and 50 doctors. Other occupations which are too numerous to mention have been well represented. The escutcheon of the Brainerd-Brainard family is somewhat marred in its brightness. I would it were not so. A few have been indiscreet, several have been mismated, one has been convicted as a horse thief, one has been sentenced to Sing Sing prison for forgery, one, while bereft of his reason and intoxicated, has taken the life of a person. It is well no more shadows have been cast over the past, and that the family has been so well represented in its integrity and honesty of purpose. Any person who is interested enough to correct such errors as may have occurred, or give additional records, if they will send the corrections to me, I will copy them and keep them rightly numbered for the person who wishes to revise this issue of the Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy. Hoping my efforts to keep the name from oblivion will be appreciated, I now give you all a respite from my queries, and bid you an affectionate farewell. LUCY A. BRAINARD. ADDITIONS AND CORRECTIONS.
