Poem, " Hallowed Echoes." INTRODUCTION. As an introduction to this volume, permit these few words con- cerning its origin. In July, 1896, feeling the iieed of renovating our church building, a meeting was called to consider the best means for raising the required funds. Tv^o means were decided upon, namely, the holding of a lawn festival and the circulation of a subscription paper among the mem- bers and friends of the church. These were immediately put into execution, with the happy result that we were able to completely renovate the interior of our main audience room by the third Sunday of the following March, at a cost of about fifteen hundred dollars, all of which was paid for, with a small balance besides, which was turned to missionary purposes. With gratitude to God for His favor upon our work, we felt the need of rededicating our renovated build- ing to His service, and prepared accordingly a series of services to begin with Sunday, March 21st, and to continue through the week until and including the following Sunday. On the morning of the first Sunday the renovated building was rededicated, the rededi- catory sermon being preached by the Rev. Arthur P. Newman, pas- tor of the Presbyterian Church of Bridgehampton, L. I. We turned to him for this important service not only because he is an able Pres- byter and beloved, but because he is a successor in the pastorate of the Bridgehampton Church of the Rev. Dr. Aaron Woolworth, who preached the first dedicatory sermon when the present building was completed in 181 7. Brother Newman's text was the same as Dr. Wooilworth's, namely, Ps. 123:6, "The Lord hath done great things for us, whereof we are glad." It was an inspiring discourse, and cheered us on in our renewed endeavor. For the evening service of that Sunday we prepared a historical paper, and it was that effort which has led us on to the present result of this volume. We found so much that was interesting and valuable in our research that w^e were able but to touch the beginning of things on this island in our first paper. We continued our research and presented another in- stallment on the 4th of April following. Again we resumed our study. With increasing delight we found our effort growing both in interest and in proportions. As we came to the time when Shelter Island was fully organized into a town by the election of town offi- cials, and so met the names of the twenty men who were the founders of our town, we felt, in view of so much that is creditable and delight- ful in the history of this place, and of their undying connection with it, that their names were worthy of a more permanent form than had yet been given to them. Thus one thing led on to another until now behold what we have endeavored to do — write a series of historical papers on Shelter Island and its Presbyterian Church, with genea- logical tables of most of the founders of the town and church. We say "behold" for the reason that it was something which we least intended to do when we started out in the preparation of an his- torical paper, to be read in connection Avith the rededication of our church. We feel that such an effort, had we known it at the begin- ning, would have made us hesitate to the degree of great reluctance, if not to entire refusal. It is only through the uniform kindness which we have received from one and another that we have been able to accomplish this. Among the many who have thus cheered us on and aided us greatly are the following to whom this public courtesy is due, namely, Rev. Epher Whitaker, D. D., and N. Hubbard Cleve- land, of Southold, L. I.; Richard C. Fosdick, of St. Paul, Minn.; Miss Katherine E. Havens, of Stamford, Conn.; Mrs. M. S. D. Law- rence, of Quiogue, L. I.; the Misses Horsfords, of Cambridge, Mass.; Mrs. Daniel Hudson, and Byron GrifBng, of Shelter Island; Mrs. Sophar Woodhull, of Laurel, L. I.; Mrs. Stuart Terry, of Pe- conic, L. I.; Miss Elizabeth M. Brown, of New London, Conn.; Mrs. Mabel L. Huntington, of Rome, N. Y. ; Mrs. Emma H. Thomson, of New York city; William Wallace Tooker, of Sag Harbor. L. I.; Rufus King, of Yonkers, N. Y., and George R. Howell, archivist of the State Library, Albany, N. Y. To them as w'ell as to all who have in any way encouraged and assisted the author he extends most hearty and lasting thanks. And now the volume is to go forth into the hands of the public. What is sought by its issue is simply this: to help fix in memory and in history the things it records as having occurred upon this beauti- ful island. -r- • i c n b aithfully yours, Shelter Island, N.

SHELTER ISLAND AND ITS PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH. CHAPTER I. ' ^Rejnember the former things of old. ' ' — Prophet Isaiah. IT HESE words enjoin upon us a precious duty, the duty of retro- spection, of calling up the past. It therefore has to do with history. In complying then with this charge, "Remember the for- mer things of old," we shall endeavor to set before you that part of the past which bears upon the history of this fair isle of the sea, and of this honored Church of God. In other words, I am moved to give you an historical paper; the subject of which is, "Shelter Island and its Presbyterian Church." I am moved to do this, because the occasion of this morning, namely, the rededication of this renovated building to the service and glory of God, gives a fitting opportunity to do what our text exhorts us to do, that is, take a glance backward and "remember the former things of old." For such an event em- phasizes the past; is in itself a reminder of former days. A rededica- tion suggests a first or former dedication. It thus turns the mind backward, and the mind once thus turned, seems to take delight in travelling over the whole line of sequence and antecedents. Be- sides this, as I remarked in my opening sentence, the duty enjoined in our text is a most precious duty, precious not only in the sense of being valuable, a truth in itself sufficient to incite one's powers to such a duty, but precious in the sense of exciting within us peculiar afifections and encouragements; in showing us how vitally the pres- ent is connected with the past; the present being but the outgrowth of the past, as the man is but the outgrowth or development of the boy. By this study we shall see, that the opportunities of to-day are the flowers of the buds of yesterday. That without a past there could never have been a present, much less a future, all of which is precious, doubly precious, since as Dr. McKenzie says in his intro- duction to Dr. Byington's recent work on "The Puritan," "no study is more essential than that which makes us wise in our past that we lO Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church may be prudent in our future." By the help of our God, I want to aid you in catching this thread of development; this sequence and consequence in the history of this beautiful island with which the life of our church is so closely interwoven. I can say, that to me it has been both a pleasant and a profitable study. It has excited within me those peculiar affections and encouragements already referred to. I have been thrilled by the many things of interest, the hallowed memories, sacred associations, attractive personalities, etc., con- nected with this garden spot of earth. And as I was thus affected, I understood, at least in part, why a beautiful daughter of this island and church, should have been moved to write the sweet poem, "My Native Isle," that Mrs. Mary Gardiner Horsford did. The subject is worthy of every line of it. I too have wished that the feelings which have come to me, while pursuing my present purpose, might have been voiced and versed through a poet's skill. This much will do for an introduction. Let me now proceed to give you what I have been able to gather together from one source and another. The earliest reference bear- ing upon this island that has come under my notice bears the date of 1637. That, my hearers, is just two hundred and sixty years ago. It is a memorable year in the history of our country. Memorable for the conquest that the New England settlers achieved under the leadership of Capt. John Mason and Capt. John Underbill over the fierce tribe of Indians known as the "Pequoits," who had so long harassed and terrorized them. But in that year, goaded on to ex- treme measures by the murders that the Pequoits had committed, those early settlers rose up in their might and exterminated that tribe of savages by the aid of fire, sword and gun. It is in connection with that very work of conquest on the hills of Mystic, Conn., that this first reference touching our island is made. Before mentioning it, however, it will help us in our understanding of it, to know that the Pequoits were the most powerful tribe of Indians east of the Hudson River. Their chief sachem, according to Goodkin's His- tory, "held dominion over divers petty Sagamores, who were chiefs of the tribes on Long Island, over the Mohegans, and over the Sagamores of Quinipiac, yea, over all the people that dwelt on the Connecticut River, and over some of the most southerly inhabitants of the Nipmuck country about Quinebaug." Hence the tribes on Long Island, including Shelter Island, were subject to the Pequoits; and acknowledged it, by paying them tribute. Indeed, the earliest Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 1 1 name of the eastern end of Long Island was "Paumanack," mean- ing land of tribute. Immediately upon the conquest of the Pe- quoits in 1637, the Indians that dwelt upon Shelter Island, together with those of Long Island, sent representatives to the Englishmen of New England, desiring to be considered their friends and sub- jects by the payment of a tribute to them. Winthrop, who was Governor of the Massachusetts colony at the time, says in his jour- nal, that upon the reduction of the Pequoits by the English in 1637, "Sachems from Long Island came voluntarily and brought a tribute to us of twenty fathom of wampum each of them." This is also established by the following statement, made by Lion Gardiner, who afterwards became the owner of Gardiner's Island, but who at this time was commander of the fort at Saybrook, Conn. He says: "Three days after the fight with the Pequoits, came Waiandance to me, to see if we were angry with all Indians. I answered, No; but only with such as killed Englishmen. Then he inquired if he (Gar- diner) would trade with them, that is the Indians, adding, T will go to my brother, for he is the great Sachem of Long Island, and if we may have peace, and trade with you, we will give you tribute as we did to the Pequoits.' Now, the brother of Waiandance, of whom he speaks as the 'great Sachem of Long Island,' was 'Yovo- wan,' the Sachem of the tribe of Indians who lived on this Island; and who were known as the Manhasset tribe of Indians. Yovowan's name appears upon the deed of Gardiner's Island, dated 1639. He was also called 'Yenicoe,' 'Yennicok,' or 'Yennicott,' and 'Youco,' or 'Yocow.' " This then, is our starting point, and, as a starting point, it will serve our purpose very well, since it tells us a number of things. First of all it tells us who dwelt here, prior to the advent of the white man; not only to the shores of Shelter Island, but, you might say, to the whole of Long Island; for not a settlement had yet been made on the whole of Long Island save at its most westerly ex- tremity, that of Brooklyn — that information being the familiar one of the red man. It tells us, too, what was the relation of the tribe of Shelter Island Indians to the other tribes of Long Island; namely, that of chief. And it further tells us what was the disposition of these Indians towards the English: namely, to have been a peace- able and friendly one. Besides this, I have been able to gather the following, concerning the Indians who lived in this region at that time; by which I mean all the territory east of an imaginary line 12 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church running across Long Island at Riverhead. This territory was pos- sessed by four tribes of Indians, the first of which was the "Man- hansetts," of this island, whose Sachem was called "Yoco." The second was the "Montauks," living on the southern strip of Long Island, east of Easthampton, and whose Sachem was called "Waian- dance." The third was the "Shinnecocks," living in the region of Canoe Place and eastward to perhaps Easthampton, the Sachem of which was called, at this time, "Witaneymen" or "Weenaganim." The fourth tribe was the "Corchaugs," who possessed the whole of the northern strip of Long Island now comprised in the townships of Southold and Riverhead, whose Sachem was called "Momoweta." The Sachems or chiefs of these four tribes were brothers, the oldest of them being "Yoco," the Shelter Island Sachem. He was the Grand Sachem, and was called "the Sachem of Paumanack," meaning "the land of tribute" or "contributing," as the eastern end of Long Island was termed; derived, as we have seen, from the fact that the Indians in this region paid tribute, first to the Pequoits and afterwards to the English of New England; Indian names, be it remembered, being invariably descriptive of locaHty and char- acteristics. Our Yoco, however, was not only Grand Sachem of these four tribes, but over all the tribes of Long Island, at least as far west as Hempstead. He thus had ten or fifteen Sachems under him to whom his word was law; the four Sachems of the tribes in this region having taken under their protection all the other tribes as far west as the Rockaways in Hempstead town. This protectorship was agreed upon and confirmed May 29, 1645, by Rockouw, the great Sachem of Cotsjewaninck (Ahaquazuwamminck). See Colon- ial History of New York, Vol. XIV., p. 60, and Plymouth Co- lonial Records, Vol. IX., p. 18. Our Indian Chief Yoco was the principal party in making the various conveyances of land to the English, in the eastern half of Long Island, as the deeds of those early days will show. It was from him that Lion Gardiner pur- chased Gardiner's Island, May 3, 1639. In the deed of conveyance his name is given as "Yovowan" and his wife's as "Aswaw." But we must return again to our starting point in the year of 1637, for that year is of importance to us, not only as bearing the first reference to this island, but as the year in which the Earl of Sterling, having acquired the whole of Long Island and its adjacent islands, through a grant from the English colony of Plymouth, given upon request of King Charles the First, commissioned one James Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church i 3 Farrett to be his ag-ent in disposing of this territory, for which ser- vice he was given the privilege of selecting as his own ten thousand of the best acres of the whole domain. With this commission bear- ing date of April 20, 1637, a copy of which can be seen in the Town Clerk's office of Southampton, Mr. Farrett sailed early in 1638. Upon his arrival in the new world he examined the whole of the territory covered by his master's patent; and, as one has well said, "with unerring judgment chose Shelter Island together with its little neighbor, Robbins Island, as his portion," according to the terms of his commission. By virtue of this choice and grant our island was first known among the English as "Mr. Farrett's Island." It is thus referred to in the deed of Southampton drawn up in 1639 or '40, which can be seen in the Southampton Town Clerk's office and is known as "Mr. Farrett's patent." Mr. Farrett, however, did not make this island his home, but simply selected it for his own commercial purposes. He soon disposed of it to a Mr. Stephen Goodyear, a merchant of high standing in the New Haven Colony, who bought it in the early part of 1641, and who shortly after the purchase became Deputy Governor of the New Haven Colony. Some three or four months after purchasing it, Mr. Goodyear sought to dispose of this island to the New Haven Company, as the follow- ing entry, bearing date of August 30, 164.1, will show, namely: "Mr. Goodyear propounded his purchase of Mr. Farrett's Island to the town, but it was not accepted." Not being able to dispose of the island, it continued in his possession for ten years, or until 1 65 1, when he sold it to a company of four gentlemen by the names of Thomas Middleton, Thomas Rouse, Nathaniel Sylvester and Constant Sylvester. The amount that these gentlemen paid to Mr. Goodyear for Shelter Island was "sixteen hundred pounds of good merchantable muscovado sugar," or a cash equivalent of from fifty to one hundred dollars. As the years during- which Mr. Goodyear remained the owner of this island are memorable ones in the history of England, the mother country, and the memorable events of that decade bear directly on the settlement of this island by at least one of the four gentlemen who purchased it in 1651, we will tarry a moment to dwell upon this period. As you know, it is the period taken up by the English revolution under Oliver Cromwell, that political upheaval which dethroned King Charles the First and his son and successor. King Charles the Second. It is the period of the Long Parliament. It is 14 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church also the period of the Westminster Assembly, that ecclesiastical body which formulated our Confession of Faith and Catechism. It is the period in which Puritanism and Presbyterianism, after a whole century of oppression, came to the top, and Prelacy and Episco- palianism went to the bottom. Because of this change in public afifairs, the exodus of Independants and Puritans which had been going- on for upward of twenty years, ceased. So far as the Puritans were concerned, it had lasted twelve years, during which some thirty thousand of these God-fearing men had come to America's shores. Now, however, the King had been checked in his perse- cution. A struggle for supremacy between the King and Parlia- ment had arisen. He endeavored to dissolve his Parliament, but was thwarted and driven into exile; afterwards taken prisoner, tried, condemned and beheaded in 1649. Oliver Cromwell was victorious. The royalists were crushed; and in turn they now sought out an asylum where they might take refuge. Hearing of the success of the Pilgrims and Puritans in this land, they turned their attention to this new world, and so they, like the Pilgrims and Puritans before them, took refuge in America. "Had there been no Oliver Crom- well," says one writer concerning our island, "Had there been no Oliver Cromwell, Shelter Island woul-d have had a very different, and doubtless much more prosaic history," for it was that overthrow of the King by Oliver Cromwell that led the first settlers upon this island to leave England and come to America's shores. You can see then how the events of those years in England influenced the history of Shelter Island. Then, too, the events that happened on this side of the Atlantic during those years are important to us. For here, too, there was a struggle for supremacy, between the Dutch who had settled about the Hudson River, and the English who had settled in New Eng- land. Both nations contended that Long Island with its adjacent islands belonged to them, and sought to take possession. But as both could not possess it, they at last agreed to divide it between them; the Dutch to take the western half and the English the eastern half; the dividing line to extend across the island from the western boundary of Oyster Bay straight to the ocean. This agreement was signed September 19, 1650, and was sent to England and Hol- land for ratification. England, however, refused to recognize the claim of the Dutch, and the result was a war, in which the Dutch were badly defeated. Such was the condition of things when Mr. Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 15 Goodyear disposed of this island to the four gentlemen already- named. This shows us that the causes which led to the settlement of this island were altogether different from those which led to the settlement of New England. Concerning the four gentlemen who purchased this island, I have been able to gain the following: they were all engaged in the West India sugar industry, perhaps partners in the business. This doubtless accounts for the purchase price of the island being six- teen hundred pounds of good merchantable muscovado sugar, a commodity which Mr. Goodyear, being a merchant, could easily dis- pose of. As Mr. Thomas Middleton is mentioned first, he may have been the oldest. He is spoken of as Captain. Mr. Middleton did not make the island his home. The second of the four gentle- men, Mr. Thomas Rouse, is said to have hailed from the neighbor- hood of Southwold, England, from whence he went to Barbadoes, where he became a wealthy sugar planter and united with the Quakers. The remaining two of the company, Nathaniel and Con- stant Sylvester, were brothers, the sons of Giles Sylvester, of Eng- land. They too had gone to the Barbadoes, and there engaged in the sugar business. Before going, however, to Barbadoes, they emigrated with their father to Holland, where the elder Sylvester passed away. This fact coupled with others to be mentioned would indicate that the Sylvesters were not in sympathy with the Estab- lished Church. Upon the death of the father in Holland, the family, consisting of the widow, four sons, Nathaniel, Constant, Giles and Joshua, and two daughters, moved to Barbadoes, where Nathaniel and Constant at least became prominent merchants, the latter be- ing in time a member of the Governor's Council, and remaining there until his death in 167 1. A fifth son, Peter, remained in London. Nathaniel Sylvester soon changed his place of abode to Shelter Island, being the only one of the four to do so. He was followed later on by two of his brothers, Giles and Joshua, Giles remaining but a few years, after which he returned to England, where he mar- ried and died, while Joshua, after living with his brother a few years moved to Southold. I am told that the name of the vessel in which Nathaniel Sylvester came from the West Indies to Shelter Island was the "Golden Parrot." This was in the year 1652, the year after the purchase of the island from Mr. Goodyear, hence the date of the first white settlement on Shelter Island. Upon coming here to live Nathaniel Sylvester brought with 1 6 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church him a young lady in the person of Grissel Brinley, whom he had lately married. This young lady was the daughter of Thomas Brin- ley, Esq., of Datchett, in County Bucks, the parish so well known to the million of readers of Shakespeare's play, ''The Merry Wives of Windsor." Her father was auditor under Charles the First and Charles the Second, also keeper of the accounts of the dower of Henrietta Maria, positions implying great friendship of the royal family. In the middle aisle of the church at Datchett, near Windsor, lies a tombstone after English fashion bearing this inscription: "Thomas Brinley, Esq., Auditor General of the Revenues of King Charles I and H. Born in the city of Exon, married Anna Wade of Pettsworth in Sussex, by whom he had five sons and seven daughters. He was born in 1591, died 1661. One of his daughters married Nathaniel Sylvester, Esq. Francis, one of his sons, ac- cepted a grant of land for his father's services and went to New- port, R. I." Because of his friendly offices to the king Mr. Brinley's estate was confiscated and a warrant issued for his arrest. He man- aged, however, to escape to the continent, where he was obliged to live in exile until the death of Oliver Cromwell and the return of Charles the Second to England, when he also returned and died shortly after. During his exile his family had been scattered, his daughter Grissel, at the early age of sixteen, having married Na- thaniel Sylvester in 1652. Upon their marriage the young couple went to America, touching on their way at Barbadoes, where they were handsomely entertained at the home of Mr. Constant Sylvester. After leaving Barbadoes, and while nearing the coast of New Eng- land, they were shipwrecked, losing much of their goods which they had brought with them for their new home on this island. It was indeed an eventful journey, a brave undertaking for the young wife of sixteen. At last they reached this place and began to lay the foundation of a family career that may well be the pride of every Shelter Islander. They were not long on the island before the Indians disputed their title and made complaint to the Commissioners of the United Colonies of New England assembled at Hartford. One of their number, called Checkanoe, appearing before that body on the 2d of September, 1652, to enter a protest, as the following record will show: "Whereas we were informed by Checkanoe, an Indian of Menhansick Island, on behalf of the Indian inhabitants of said island, that they are disturbed in their possession by Captain Mid- Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 1 7 dleton and his agents, upon pretense of a purchase from Mr. Good- year, of New Haven, who bought the same of one Mr. Forrett, a Scotchman, and by vertue thereof, the said Indians are threatened to be forced off the said island, and to seek an habitation where they can get it; the said Indians deny that they sold the said island to the said Forrett, and that the said Forrett was a poor man, not able to purchase it, but the said Indians gave to said Forrett some part of the said island, and marked it out by some trees; yet never that themselves be deprived of their habitation there, and therefore they desired that the Commissioners (they being their tributaries) to see they have justice in the premises, the Commissioners therefore, in regard the said Mr. Goodyear is not present, and at their court, to hear the complaint of the said Indians, and to satisfy the said Indians if they can, if not to certify the Commissioners at the next meeting, the truth of the promises, that some further order may be taken therein as shall be meet." As a result of this protest Capt. Middleton and his associates had to purchase Shelter Island a second time from the Indians, the deed of which second purchase appears among the records of Easthampton bearing date of Dec. 27th, 1652. Also a confirmatory paper of this second purchase is on file among the Southold Town records, and reads as follows: "Wee whose names are here underneath subscribed doe hereby testify and declare that Yokee, formerly Sachem of Manhansick Ahaquatawamock, now called Shelter Island, did on the three and twentieth of March, 1652, give full Possession unto Capt. Na- thaniel Silvester and Ensigne John Booth of the aforesaid island of Ahaquatawamock, with all that was belonging to the same. And hee the said Yokee, delivered unto the aforesaid Captaine Nathaniel Silvester and Ensign John Booth one turfe and twige in their hands according to the usual custome of England; after which delivery and full possession given, the said Yokee with all his Indians that were formerly belonging to said island of Ahaquatawamock did freely and willingly depart the aforesaid island, leaving the aforesaid Cap- taine Nathaniel Silvester and Ensigne Booth in full possession of the same. Unto which we Witness our hands the date as above being the 23d of March, 1652. "JOHN HERBERT of Southold. "CAPT. ROBERT SEELEY of New Haven. "DANIEL LANE of New London. "GILES SILVESTER." 1 8 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church From the date of this paper it would seem that this transaction took place early in the year of 1652, prior even to the protest lodged with the Commissioners at Hartford, in consequence of which this second purchase from the Indians had to be made. But we need to remember that at that time the year began either after the lotli or with the 25th of March and not on the ist of January. This made the first part of March to belong to the old year and the latter part to the new year. Hence the date of the above paper, being be- fore the 25th of March, namely, the 23d of March, it belonged to the old year as indicated, 1652, though according to our method it would be 1653. We do not know what was the purchase price of this second sale, but with this sale the Indians agreed among other things to put away all their dogs; these dogs, it may be interesting to know, are believed to have been young wolves which the Indians had caught and trained to do them service, but which in spite of their training continued to be very ravenous, a frequent source of annoyance to the white settlers. You will notice that in the confirmatory paper just read, it is stated that shortly after the second conveyance the Indians left this Island. If so, they dispersed among the Montauks, Shinnecocks and Corchaugs. Perhaps they scattered because of their Sachem's death, for Yoco, their chief, and the supreme chief of all the Long Island Indians, passed away to the happy hunting grounds in 1653. At least, such is the opinion of certain writers. In the Chronicles of East Hampton, by the late David Gardiner, there is an interesting account of the funeral of our noted Chief Yoco, which reads as follows: "His remains were transported for burial from Shelter Island to Montaukett, where was the burying ground of the Indians. In removing the body, the bearers rested the bier by the side of the road leading from Sag Harbour to Easthampton, near the third mile stone, where a small excavation was made to designate the spot. From that time to the present, more than 190 years, this mem- orial has remained, as fresh, seemingly, as if but lately made. Neither leaf nor stone, nor any other thing, has been suffered to rem.ain in it. The Montauk tribe, though reduced to a beggarly number of some ten or fifteen drunken and degraded beings, have retained to this day the memory of the event, and no one individual of them now passes the spot in his wanderings without removing whatever may have fallen into it. The place is to them holy ground, and the exhi- bition of this pious act does honor to the finest feelings of the human Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church ig heart. The excavation is about 12 inches in depth and 18 inches in diameter, in the form of a mortar." As late as 1845 'the Rev. N. S. Prime, author of "An Ecclesiastical History of Long Island," being acquainted with the foregoing fact, examined the place anew and found it in its original form and freshness as above described. When the turnpike between Sag Harbor and Easthampton was laid out about i860, the spot was plowed up and the sacred memorial of over two hundred years' standing was obliterated. One of Sag Harbor's respected citizens told me this past week, while speaking of this matter, that she remembered very well the very spot, and had seen with her own eyes the reverence that was paid to it by the Indians. She spoke of an Indian in particular, known in Sag Harbor as Stephen Pharaoh, or Talkhouse, who would get down by that spot whenever he passed and clean it out reverently, following the cus- tom of his forefathers. This Indian died in 1882. That spot was known as "Whooping Boys' Hollow," so called because the Indians who bore the body of Yoco gave a parting whoop as they resumed their funeral march. Before leaving the aborigines of this place, so interesting in their history, I wish to call your attention to another mem- ber of the Manhansett tribe, brother-in-law to Yoco, the chief, an Indian who played a most important part in the various transactions between the English and the Indians, acting as their interpreter and notary public. He has already been mentioned in this paper, for he was the representative of the Manhansett tribe before the com- missioners at Hartford, when the protest was made, upon the strength of which Captain Nathaniel Silvester and his associates had to pay a second time for this island. He is there called "Checkanoe, an Indian of Manhansick Island." Just a year ago Mr. William Wallace Tooker, of Sag Harbor, issued a work en- titled "John Eliot's First Indian Interpreter, Cockenoe-de-Long Island," an exceedingly interesting essay on this very Indian of Shelter Island. I have read and re-read this book with great inter- est, and believe with Mr. Tooker that this "Checkanoe, an Indian of Manhansick Island," was the young Indian who was so helpful to John Eliot, the great apostle to the Indians, both in acquiring the Indian language, in preaching to the Indians, and also in his trans- lation of the Bible into the Algonquian tongue, which was the lan- guage of the Indians. I have not the time to dwell longer upon this unique character, who for nearly fifty years was such an important 20 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church factor in the transactions of the early settlers with the Indians. His memory, however, is honored to this day, his name being given to an island in Long Island Sound, near the mouth of the Saugatuck river, in 1652, called "Cockenoe's Island," and is so designated at the present time on the Coast Survey Chart of the United States. It will pay you to read this book, which can be had from our Public Library. One thing, however, I wish to state, namely: This young Indian's literary ability is an evidence to me that God has made of one blood all nations that dwell upon the face of the earth. For just as soon as this Indian's mind was brought in contact with in- tellectual training, it readily grasped the knowledge that was sought to be conveyed and responded quickly to every intellectual touch, though it were but the mind of a heathen, offspring of a heathen ancestry that perhaps had never known literary characters. To me it was a surprising evidence of the truth that God is the Creator of us all and that we are all, white and red man, the offspring of a common parent. Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 2 I CHAPTER 11. Our first installment of this historical paper closed with the burial of the great Manhansett chief Yoco and a reference to an- other celebrated Manhansett Indian named "Cockenoe." We now turn from the red man to the white man, from the aborigines to the original settlers of this island. It is said that when Mr. Goodyear, Deputy Governor of New Haven, sold this island, in 1651, to Messrs. Middleton, Rouse and the Sylvester brothers, at least one of the four gentlemen, Captain Nathaniel Sylvester, was on the island or had visited it at the time of the purchase. This gentleman, as we have seen, decided to make the island his home. To that end, in due time, he shipped at least one cargo of building material, together with other articles, send- ing with these goods a force of workmen, who were to prepare a habitation for his coming. He had gone to England, and there early the next year, 1652, married Grissel Brinley, with whom he came to Shelter Island to make it his home. With them there came to America, Francis Brinley, brother of Mrs. Nathaniel Sylvester, who afterwards, according to the inscription on the slab in the aisle of the church at Dachette, received a grant of land in Rhode Island. There was also in the party another bride, sister of Francis Brinley and Mrs. Sylvester, namely, Anne Brinley, who had married Gov. William Coddington of Rhode Island, and finally besides these Giles Sylvester. These first touched at Barbadoes, from whence they sailed in the "Golden Parrot" for Shelter Island, arriving about the middle of 1652; that is. Captain Nathaniel Sylvester and his wife, Giles and Joshua Sylvester, Giles' name, as you will remember, appearing as one of the witnesses of the confirmatory paper of the second purchase of the island by Captain Nathaniel Sylvester and Ensign John Booth from the Indians. Giles is also mentioned in a letter written by Nathaniel Sylvester to Gov. John Winthrop of Connecticut, who lived at that time on Fisher's Island, bearing date of October 10, 1654. Joshua's name appears among the names of the early settlers of Southold in Dr. Whitaker's history of that place. Captain Na- thaniel Sylvester brought with him, besides his wife and brothers, several servants and some slaves from Barbadoes. These, with what workmen were upon the island at their coming, constituted the 2 2 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church first white settlement. In the course of time the settlement was in- creased by natural results, Mr. and Mrs. Sylvester becoming the parents of a large family of children, the first of which came upon earth about the middle of August, 1654, for in another letter to Mr. Winthrop, of Fisher's Island, bearing date of September 8, 1655, ^.d- vice is sought in behalf of this baby, who had become ill, in these pathetic words: "Our grief is great to see the child lay in ye sad con- dition and here quite out of ye way of help." Captain Nathaniel Sylvester became in time the owner of the whole island. We shall have occasion later on to trace this develop- ment in the ownership of our island. Thus far we have had occasion to mention, since the sale in 165 1, in turn, the years of 1652, 1653, 1654, 1655. We now come to another interesting period. It is the period of the persecution of the Quakers in New England, beginning in 1656 and lasting till 1661. To us it is a surprising thing, that in this land of ours, persons should have been persecuted even unto death for their religious belief. Yet such is the truth. Persecuted, tortured, scourged and branded with hot irons. Among those who suffered thus was John Rouse, son of Thomas Rouse, one of the four gentlemen who bought this island from Mr. Goodyear. This John Rouse had his ears cut off for being a Quaker. Others were banished from the New England colonies upon pain of death if they returned. Such was the treatment that the New England settlers meted out to the Quakers. The adherents of this sect were looked upon then in about the same light as we look upon anarchists now. It was during these troublous times that this island became indeed a Shelter Island, as many of these persecuted Quakers found an asylum here and were succored by Captain Nathaniel Sylvester and his family. Notably among those who found such shelter were Lawrence and Cassandra Southwick, an aged couple. After having been put into prison, starved and flogged, they were banished from New England with the threat that if they ever returned they would be put to death. The threat was not needed, for shortly after they had been received upon this island, they died and are believed to have been buried in the ancient graveyard now on the Horsford estate. The poet Whittier, you know, has immortalized this act of shelter- ing these refugees by making it the subject of one of his finest poems. Mary Dyer, who was hung upon Boston Commons, also received succor for a time on this island. Likewise William Leddra and Joseph Nicholson and wife. These, together with others, were Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 23 here kindly treated and cared for, their wounds dressed and healed, and their spirits cheered and strengthened. Besides these, others of this sect who came from Englan'd, not- ably John Taylor, of York, and William Robinson and George Fox, the great apostle of the Friends or Quakers, touched first at Shelter Island or in time tarried here. James Bowden, in his "History of the Society of Friends," says that except this island and the colony of Rhode Island, there was not at this time a nook in the colonies of North America on which a Friend could land without exposing himself to severe suffering and the ship-master to a heavy penalty. The possession, therefore, of this island, he adds, by one who loved the truth was a providential circumstance peculiarly favorable to Friends at this juncture, and not to be viewed as one of mere chance. From all this it has been claimed by one and another that Nathaniel Sylvester and his family were Quakers or Friends. Dr. Charles Evans, author of "Friends in the 17th Century," says that "he either became a Friend at the time he purchased the island, or he was convinced of the principles of the Friends soon after he ob- tained possession of it. Here the weary exiles, on account of re- ligion, always found a home and a heart to receive, to succor and refresh them, so that the kindness and liberality of Nathaniel Syl- vester were widely known and highly appreciated by Friends in America and Great Britain." James Bowden in his work, to which reference has already been made, says of Nathaniel Sylvester that when he joined in religious professions with Friends, we are uninformed; but as early as the third month of 1659 he is referred to as one who had adopted our principles." This is also the opinion of his descendants, who live upon the estate to-day. Both Bowden and Evans think that these friendly acts of succor and refuge, which the proprietor of this island extended to the persecuted Quakers, gave to this island its present name of Shelter Island. As we shall have occasion to speak of the names given to this island at various times and their origin presently, we shall let this claim stand until then. There is an interesting paper among the records of Southold, bearing date of the 28th of the eleventh month of 1657, the origin of which is perhaps connected with the persecution of the Quakers. This persecution led the writer to express himself rather strongly, which he afterwards regrets and retracts, as the paper will show. 24 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church It is signed by Giles Sylvester, and reads as follows: "Whereas, I am accused to say that all the ministers in New England were worse than witches, I owne I said soe, for which I am heartily sorrowfull, and owne to bee very inconsiderately spoken and to my folly and wickedness in it, and hope the Lord shall guide my wayes and words to be more circumspect and like to himselfe. Then the parties that heard them finding themselves grieved, I told them that I meane noe other than those that were formall and not spirituall, such was my meaning, though not expressed till exception was made; therefore, I say, as I sayed, it is very evill in me or in any man to say any such thing, for we ought not to speak evill of any man." 28th of the iim., 1657. GILES SYLVESTER. Before leaving the Quakers it is worthy of record that George Fox, the founder of this sect, twice visited this island and was en- tertained by the Sylvesters. The Rev. Mr. Fox, in his journal of 1672, speaks of his visits to this island, and of his preaching to the Indians and the people, who were deeply impressed by what he said unto them. And now let me refer briefly to the various names that have been given to this island. The first is Cotjewaminick, which appears upon a deed given to Sir Gardiner by Yoco, the Manhansick chief. It was also called by the Indians "Manhansick Ahaquashuwornock" or "Manhansick Ahaquazuwamuck," which is said to mean "at or about the island sheltered their fishing place," or "their sheltered fishing place at or about the island." The first English name which it bore was Mr. Farrett's Island or Farrett's Island. After Mr. Farrett sold the island to Mr. Goodyear, it was also known as Goodyear's Island, and when Mr. Goodyear disposed of it to the four English gentlemen, one of whom selected it as his dwelling place, namely. Captain Nathaniel Sylvester, it was known as Syl- vester Island, appearing as such upon record as late as 1674. How- ever, long before this, it was also called Shelter Island, and this, too, before the Quaker persecution began. Indeed, it is so called in the confirmatory paper, bearing date March 23, 1652, namely, "Wee whose names are here underneath subscribed do hereby testify and declare that Yokee, formerly Sachem of Menhansick Ahaquazuwa- muck, now called Shelter Island." Hence Bowden and Evans are wrong in claiming that because of the friendly acts of succor and refuge which the proprietor of this island extended to the persecuted Quakers, the island received its present name of Shelter Island. Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 25 ■^It received this name upon the coming of the Sylvesters in 1652, without doubt, suggested and determined by the meaning of the Indian name, Manhansick Ahaquatuwamock, a sheltered island or Shelter Island."^ It is a goodly name, and long may it be signifi- cant, not only of a popular watering place, but of friendliness, love of mankind, liberty of conscience, nobility of character, and every grace that should adorn a Christian and God-fearing community. Let us now resume the tracing out of the various owners of this island. These have thus far been: The Manhansett tribe of Indians ; King Charles I.; Earl of Stirling; James Farrett; Stephen Goodyear, and Messrs. Middleton, Rouse, Nathaniel and Constant Sylvester. Now another name is introduced as part owner, namely, that of Ensign John Booth, who with Captain Sylvester made the purchase from the Indians in December, 1652. It may be that this John Booth simply represented Messrs. Middleton, Rouse and Constant Sylvester, as there is another paper on record bearing the date of 1656, which implies that Thomas Rouse was still the owner of one- fourth of the island, that paper being a release of his quarter of the island to Thomas Middleton for John Booth. John Booth thus, in 1656, takes the place of Thomas Rouse, and the owners are Middle- ton, Booth, Nathaniel and Constant Sylvester. This ownership continued for a while, when John Booth withdrew by selHng his portion to Nathaniel Sylvester for 700 pounds sterling. Nathaniel Sylvester soon after conveyed a portion of this newly acquired quarter to his brother Constant. This happened September 12, 1662. It was now in the hands of Thomas Middleton, Nathaniel Sylvester and Constant Sylvester, and continued so until 1673, when Captain Nathaniel Sylvester became sole proprietor of the island, as will be shortly seen from documents bearing that date. Let us, however, return again to old England, for there certain things have happened since last we referred to her, that, like previous events, affected this island during these years of Captain Nathaniel Sylvester's residence upon it and in the progress of which he be- came sole proprietor. Our last reference to the mother country closed with Oliver Cromwell's decisive victory over the royalist forces, by which he became ruler of all England, assuming the title, 26 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church not of King, but of Protector. He continued thus until his death in 1658. We also had occasion to state the rejection on the part of Cromwell for England, of the proposed division of Long Island, between the Dutch and the English, according to the proposed treaty agreed upon at Hartford, in 1650, between the Dutch and English colonists, which treaty was sent to Holland and England for ratification. In rejecting this treaty, the claims of the Dutch were entirely ignored, the reason given being in these words, "of not knowing of any plantations of the Netherlands there, save a small number upon Hudson's River." This, as was then stated, resulted in war, in which the EngHsh were the victors. While this war lasted, which was for about two years, there were troublous times for our early settlers here. Upon Cromwell's death, September 3, 1658, his eldest son, Richard, was proclaimed his successor. But he was not the success his father was at ruling, and so the people once more desired the restoration of kingly rule, inviting Charles II. to return and assume the crown, which he did on the 29th of May, 1660. He immediately issued orders to the New England colonies to cease their persecution of the Quakers, having been kept informed, while in exile, of their suffering, through the writings of Mrs. Syl- vester to her father, who was always near the King in his flight. On the 1 2th of March, 1663, King Charles II. gave to his brother, the Duke of York, an extensive grant of territory in the New World, which included the Dutch settlement of New Amsterdam and the whole of Long Island. Immediately upon receiving this patent, the Duke of York sought to take possession by constituting Colonel Richard Nicholls Deputy Governor of the Colony, and commission- ing him to take possession of this territory. The following year, or in 1664, he sailed with a fleet of man-of-warsmen, and in due time appeared in New York harbor. He immediately issued a summons to surrender, which he enforced without bloodshed, and thus the English became possessors of New Amsterdam, now called New York in honor of the Duke of York, and the whole of Long Island, including the adjacent islands. This necessitated a confirmation in the title of this island, which the Sylvester brothers sought and re- ceived from Governor Nicolls. They also received from Governor Nicholls a perpetual exemption from taxes and other public bur- dens upon the payment of £150, "one-half of which was to be in beef and the other half in pork." Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 27 These papers read as follows, the latter, namely, the release, bearing the earlier date of the two, and therefore given first: "Rich- ard Nicoll,Esqr.,Govenor, under his Royall Highnesse, James, Duke Yorke and Albany, &c., of all his territorys in America: To all to whome these presents shall come ; whereas Nathl. Sylvester, of Shel- ter Island, merchant for and on behalfe of himselfe and of his brother Constant Sylvester, off Barbadoes, Esqr., hath of his own voluntary free will and good affection to this government, advanct and paid to- wards ye the support and maintenance thereof, the sum of 150 lbs., the receipt whereof I doe hereby acknowledge. Now know yea, that by vertue of commission and authority given unto me, by his Royall Highnesse, James Duke of Yorke, I, for and in consideration of the aforesaid sum of 150 lbs., and for other good causes and considera- tions me thereunto moving, doe hereby grant unto ye said Nathaniel and Constant Sylvester, and to their heires and assignes forever.

The confirmation is as follows: " A tract of land lying and being in a certain bite, bay, or arm of the sea, which runneth between the lands of Easthampton, Southampton and Southold, in the East Riding of Yorkshire, upon Long Island, heretofore purchased from the Indians by James fforett, agent to William, Earl of Stir- ling, and which hath since come by several deeds, conveyances and grants to the said Constant Sylvester, of the island of Barbadoes, Esq., and Nathaniel Sylvester, then inhabiting and residing in Shelter Island aforesaid, merchant; and which said manor and place of itself, and forever have, hold, and enjoy like and equal privileges and immunities with any other town, infranchised place or manor, within this government; but not to extend to the protecting any traitor, malefactor, fugitive or debtor, flying unto the said island, to the damage of any person, or the obstruction of the laws. The same to be held, as of his majesty, the King of England, in free and com- mon soccage, and by fealty only, yielding and paying yearly one 28 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church lamb, upon the first day of May, if the same shall be demanded." This paper bears the date of May 31, 1666. You will notice, please, that in this document Governor Nicoll places Shelter Island on the same footing with "any other town, in- franchised place or manor within this government." Thus, as early as 1666 Shelter Island was designated as a town, though not fully organized as such by the selection of proper officers until 1730. For a few years after this the island continued in the peaceful ownership of the Sylvester brothers and Thomas Middleton, But only for a few years. For in 1673, seven years later, the Dutch sud- denly recaptured New York and all their lost territory. This in- volved another change in the government and proprietorship of this island. Governor Colve, now being the ruler of Long Island and its adjacent islands, by a formal act, dated April 28, 1673, de- clared Constant Sylvester and Thomas Middleton enemies of the government and confiscated their ownership and interests in Shelter Island. Constant Sylvester in the meantime had died, leaving his portion to his heirs, while Thomas Middleton was in England. To enforce this confiscation, several Dutch men-of-war appeared of? Shelter Island, with the following result as set forth in the colonial documents of that day, written in Dutch, the translation of which, as here given, being an exact copy of what is on record at the State Capitol in Albany. "Nathaniel Sylvester delivered in council an extract from his Privileges. He was commanded to produce the original, which he said he left home — on which the protocol being examined it was ascertained that the Heirs of his Brother, late Constant Sylvester, with one cos. Middleton, residing in England, were co-partners of the Island, named Shelter Island' — whose share must be confis- cated in behalf of the State. "To which the aforesaid Nathaniel Sylvester replys that a con- siderable sum of money was due to him by the aforesaid heirs of Constant Sylvester — ^but after many discussions pro and con it was finally agreed with the aforesaid Nathaniel Sylvester that he, in compensation for the action of said heirs of Constant Sylvester and Thomas Middel-towne — as for the confirmation of his Privileges — shall pay to the Government the sum of five hundred pounds in pro- vision of this country." Following is the confiscation of Shelter Island and its transfer to Nathaniel Sylvester: Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 29 "We, Cornelis Evertse, Jun., and Jacob Benckes, Comm., with our Military Counsil of the Navy, in the service of Their High and Mighty Lords, the States General of the United Netherlands, and His Serene Highness the Lord Prince of Orange, greeting — "Be it known that we, in virtue of our commission of aforesaid High and Mighty Lords are authorised and qualified to make war with our men-of-war and confided soldiers against the King of England and France and their subjects — pubHck enemies of our State and to inflict them all possible damages by water as well as on land, and if possible to take and conquer their possessions, and when conquered to confiscate these in behalf of the High and Mighty Lords, the States General of the United Netherlands and His Serene Highness the Lord Prince of Orange, and further to dispose of these to their best advantage, so is it that we in virtue of aforesaid commission endeavored to execute it — for this end which by force of arms lawfully and brought under the submission of our Masters Fort James, now WilHam Hendrick named, with the city of New-Yorke, now named New Orange, situated on the Island Manhattans, with all the lands, places and territories de- pendant from it, so as those were lately possessed by the subjects and in virtue of the commission of His Majesty of England, under the patronage of the Duke of Yorke, among which lands and ter- ritories is discovered a certain island known by the name of Shelter Island, situated to the east of Long Island, now in possession of Nathaniel Silvester — to whom however it belongs in part with heirs of Constant Sylvester and cos. Thomas Middletowne, residing in England, the Barbadoes, being subjects of his Majesty of England and of course open enemies of our Lords and Masters aforesaid, to whom in no manner can be permitted the liberty granted to all our good subjects who cheerfully submitted themselves under our obedience — but that in conformity to the laws and customs of all nations the goods and effects of our aforesaid enemies ought to be confiscated; therefore, we, in virtue of our aforesaid commission, confiscated in behalf of the aforesaid High and Mighty Lords, the State's General of the united Netherlands and his Serene High- ness the Lord Prince of Orange, after mature deliberation with our military tribunal, all the right, property, title and pretention which the aforesaid heirs of Constant Sylvester and Thomas Middletowne, or any other individual of our lawful enemies may have in aforesaid island named Shelter Island. So as we now confiscate all their 20 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church interest and property in behalf of our Lords and Masters — never- theless well understood that in this confiscation it is not in well expressly, after mature deliberation excluded the rights and property of aforesaid Nathaniel Sylvester, either in regard to said Island or his other real and personal property — goods, effects, fur- niture, negros or whatever else within this government may belong to him as lawful property — while his submission to the allegeaince of our aforesaid Lords and Masters, Their High and Mighty Lords the State's General of the united Netherlands and his Serene High- ness the Lord Prince of Orange entitles him with all our other good subjects to an equal protection with him. "In Fort William Hendrick on 28 of Aug., 1673. "This day Nathaniel Sylvester, agreeable to the agreement con- cluded on yesterday, delivered his bond at the Secretary's office of Secretary Bayard, on which the following transfer was made to him and confirmed: "The noble, valiant Military Tribunal in behalf of the High and Mighty Lords, the States General of the united Netherlands and His Serene Highness the Lord Prince of Orange — commanding the Squadron now at anchor in Hudson's River, in New Netherlands — greeting be it known : Whereas we in virtue of our commission by a preceeding Act for sufficient motive confiscated in behalf of our Master the lands, house, and goods, negros and effects of what nature these might be, which belonged to the heirs of the late Constant Sylvester and cos. Thomas Middleton, situated on Shelter Island, to the east of Long Island, and being property belonging to sub- jects of England and publick enemies of our State, so is it, that we have deemed it proper and resolved to confiscate said house, lands with all the goods, negros, and effects belonging to enemies of our State as aforesaid in behalf of our Lords and Masters and to sell these to their advantage — so as we then in conformity with this resolution agreed with Nathaniel Sylvester a partner of aforesaid Shelter Isl. to whom the aforesaid interest, right and title of the aforesaid heirs of Con. Sylvester and Thomas Middleton was sold by us for the sum of five hundred Pound Sterling, payable in con- formity to certain bond (obligation), declaring therefore to the aforesaid Nathaniel Sylvester, his heirs and posterity in considera- ting of the aforesaid sum to transfer and dedicate, so as we are doing by this all the interest, right and title which the aforesaid heirs of Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 31 Constant Sylvester and Thomas Middleton might possess in afore- said Island and its dependences as aforesaid, to be taken pos- session of, used and retained in full and lawful property by aforesaid Nathaniel Sylvester, his heirs and posterity — and further to act with it so as they might think proper or should wish to act with any other parts of the patrimonial land or effects with a further confirmation of all advantages, immunities and privileges, which have been granted and consented to the Island by the former Governor — as namely, execution of all taxes, either Politick or Military — the Custom House duties and recognition excepted — except that it might please their High and Mighty Lords the States General to resolve on any new general tax Item — That they shall not be amena- ble before any inferior Courts of Justice, but shall be prosecuted before the Chief Magistrate, and farther, that they shall not be obliged to attend any training, nor maintain any soldiers, neither to supply any necessaries of war — except what they voluntarily shall contribute for the defence of the aforesaid Island and Governor in a time of danger against any foreign invasion or troubles with the savages, all which aforesaid liberties and immunities annexed to the possession of aforesaid Island are by this again confirmed to the aforesaid Sylvester and his posterity — besides the liberty of con- science and all other privileges and immunities as shall be granted to all other subjects under this Government. "Done fort William Hendrick, 29 Aug., 1673." Nathaniel Sylvester has now become sole owner of Shelter Island. Shortly after the Dutch were again forced to surrender the Colony of New York to the English, but before doing so the Dutch Governor sent a ship with fifty soldiers to Shelter Island to collect the amount of the bond that Nathaniel Sylvester had given. In his will, dated 1679, M^- Sylvester tells how these soldiers landed on Shelter Island, surrounded his house and compelled him to pay this amount of five hundred pounds sterling. The Sylvesters have now lived twenty-two eventful years on this island and become the sole proprietors. During these years the Lord has prospered them materially, numerically and spiritually. The sugar trade has proved to be very lucrative, and the two earnest souls of Nathaniel and Grissel Sylvester have been blessed with eleven children, six sons and five daughters, named Giles, Nathaniel, Constant, Peter, 22 Slielter Island and Its Presbyterian Church Benjamin, Joshua, Grissel, Patience, Eliza, Ann and Mercy. Two of the daughters, Grissel and Patience, are said to have been very handsome women. Both of them had very romantic court- ships, Grissel at first being engaged to a wealthy young English- man named Latimer Sampson, chief proprietor of what is now known on Long Island as Loyd's Neck. Mr. Sampson, being seized with consumption, died before their marriage, leaving all his possessions by will to his intended. Miss Grissel Sylvester. This was in 1674. Two years later she married James Loyd, of Boston, and became the progenitor of a distinguished line of descendants. Patience Sylvester became the wife of Benjamin L'Hommedieu, an exiled Huguenot. Their meeting and courtship is so sweetly told by Mrs. Martha J. Lamb, in her article entitled, "The Manor of Shelter Island," that I shall make use of her language in telling it, namely: "The marriage of Patience Sylvester, the sister of Mrs. Lloyd, was also an exceptionally romantic afifair. Among the exiled Huguenots of the period was Benjamin L'Hommedieu, who settled in Southold. There being no church on Shelter Island, the Syl- vester famil)' were accustomed to attend Sabbath worship in Southold. One pleasant Sunday morning soon after his arrival, L'Hommedieu was attracted by an extremely novel object moving over the sparkling waters of the bay. As it came nearer he ob- served two remarkably handsome young women in a barge with a canopy over it, and six negro slaves rowing it. The vision haunted him. He went to church that morning, and despite Puritanical customs, permitted his eyes to remain open during prayers. The story is so like every other love story that it is hardly necessary to say that his French heart was hopelessly lost before the preacher had reached 'Amen' in his benediction. The sequel was a beautiful wedding, and Miss Patience Sylvester was henceforward Mrs. L'Hommedieu." She and her husband were likewise blessed with a remarkable progeny. The third daughter, Eliza, married Jona- than Brown, of this island. Of the sons three died without issue, leaving their inheritance of the island to Giles, the eldest son, so that in time Giles became the owner of four-fifths of the island, the other fifth being inherited by the second son, Nathaniel, who at this time lived in Newport, R. I. And now we come to the obituary note of Capt. Nathaniel Sylvester, the first white settler on the island, and whose relation to the memory and place is of such lasting interest to us. This truly good and noble soul passed away 1R^ Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 3^ in 1680. What we have been able to learn of him justifies the high eulogy that is chiselled into the stone erected to his memory by the Horsford's in the old cemetery upon their estate, and which reads as follows: "To Nathaniel Sylvester, First Resident proprietor of the Manor of Shelter Island, under Grant of Charles II, A. D. 1666. An Englishman intrepid. Loyal to Duty, Faithful to friendship, The soul of integrity and Honor, Hospitable to Worth and Cul- ture, Sheltering ever the persecuted for conscience sake." We turn now to another family, which likewise became promi- nent in the history of this island. I refer to the Nicoll\ family. The date of this family's appearance in America is 1664, and the occa- sion and person through whom the family came to the New World was Matthias Nicoll, brother of Col. Richard Nicoll, commander of the expedition sent out by the Duke of York to take possession of New Amsterdam, Long Island and other territory. Upon the capture of New York and the assumption of the Governorship of the Colony by Col. Richard Nicoll, Matthias Nicoll was appointed by his brother, the Governor, secretary of the colony and member of the Governor's council. He was also appointed a judge of the Court of Sessions, and in 1672 became the first Mayor of New York. He was then a very prominent and influential citizen in the early history of this country. He died in the latter part of 1687. One son at least survived him, named William, who it is presumed by the his- torian Thompson, was born in England, and came over when a boy with his father in 1664, as in 1683 he was appointed the first Clerk of Queens County, which position he held until 1688. He was highly educated, choosing the profession of law, in which he became very prominent, being one of the ablest lawyers of the New York bar. Col. Richard Nicoll was succeeded in the Governorship by Col. Lovelace in 1667. Col. Lovelace's term was brought to a sudden end by the appearance of the Dutch and their retaking of New York in 1673. While under the Dutch rule Anthony Color was Governor. Then came the restoration again to English rule, bringing with it the appointment of Edmund Andros as Governor. He continued until 1683, when Col. Thomas Dougan was commissioned by the Duke of York to act as Governor. During the term of Gov. Dougan Charles II died in 1685. His brother, the Duke of York, succeeded him, taking the title of James II. He immediately re- voked the powers which had been given to former governors to call assemblies in which the people were to have a voice in the govern- 24 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church ment of the colonies, and determined that the governors should rule solely by his direction and instructions. All the colonies of New England now came under the King's power, including New York. And over all these Sir Edmund Andros was appointed ruler or Governor, with authority to appoint deputy or lieutenant gov- ernors in each colony. Under this power Sir Edmund Andros ap- pointed Francis Nicholson Governor of New York. This order of things continued until April, 1689, when news having reached America that James II had been driven from the throne by the English, and that William and Mary had been proclaimed rulers of England, the people of Massachusetts arose against Andros, seized him, and after a period of confinement sent him to England. This happened at Boston. At New York the people likewise arose, led by one Jacob Leisler, who seized the fort and had himself proclaimed Governor under the pretence of holding the government for William and Mary until their properly authorized representative appeared and took command. This Leisler was an adventurer, seeking more his own personal ends than those of his superiors. William Nicoll therefore opposed him, and because of this opposition, he with others who had the courage and honesty to take such a stand, were put in prison. They remained in confinement until the arrival of Gov. Sloughter, in March, 1691, when they were released. Leisler was brought to trial, and William Nicoll, whom he had imprisoned, was appointed one of the King's councillors to conduct the prosecu- tion. The result of the trial was a verdict of high treason, for which Leisler suffered death. Mr. Nicoll was subsequently appointed by Gov. Sloughter a member of the Governor's Council. Four years later, in 1695, he was sent to England by the Colonial Assembly on an important mission, for which service the Assembly allowed him $1,000. In 1698 he again suffered imprisonment for a short time at the hands of the Earl of Bellamont, who had been appointed Gov- ernor and who was of the same character as Leisler. In 1701 he was elected a member of the Colonial Assembly from this county, but not being a resident of the county he was not allowed to take his seat. He then moved into the county, taking up his residence at Islip, where he owned an immense tract of land of 9,000 acres. He was again elected to the Assembly in 1702, and continued a mem- ber of that body until his death in 1723. For the most of the time he was Speaker of the House, until failing health forced him to resign this high office in 1718. Altogether he served in the Assem- Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 35 bly twenty-one years, and as Speaker for sixteen years. He was a mighty man; fearless, patriotic and able, enjoying in unbounded measure the confidence and esteem of the people. In early life he married the daughter of Jeremias and Maria Van Rensselaer, of New York. He left a number of children, one of whom became as distinguished as himself. In 1695 WilHam Nicoll bought of Giles Sylvester one-fourth of his estate, equal to one- fifth of the whole of Shelter Island. Upon the death of Giles Syl- vester in 1704, who died without issue, Mr. Nicoll inherited from Mr. Sylvester another fourth of his estate, which made him owner of two-fifths of Shelter Island. It was thus that the Nicoll's be- came proprietors of Sachem's Neck, which has remained in the family until this day. Mr. WilHam Nicoll was buried at Islip, and over his grave was placed a monumental tablet with this inscription : "Sacred to the memory of William Nicolls. Hospitality, charity and good will toward his fellow man, were the marked characters of his life; and a perfectly resigned submission to the will of his Creator distinguished the sincere Christian at the hour of death, which took place Nov. 20, 1723. Ae 64." Now, my friends, I have pursued the history of this island thus far, and the career of this William Nicoll with peculiar delight. And that because of the coincidences and connections that exist between my former charge at Newtown and my present charge here on Shelter Island. Both communities had their birth in the same year, namely, 1652, and both were settled by Englishmen of Puritan principles. Both experienced the vicissitudes of the period thus far covered of a Httle more than fifty years. But that which above all binds the two together is the following, which is particularly pleasing to me. The same year in which William Nicoll took his seat in the Assembly and became Speaker of the House, namely, 1702, Lord Cornbury was appointed Governor of the Colony of New York. This appointment he received as a reward from His Majesty King William for espousing his cause in the overthrow of King James II. Now this Lord Cornbury was a man most obnoxious to the people, according to several historians. "His sense of justice," says Thompson, "was as weak as his bigotry was uncontrollable. Nor was there a Governor of New York so universally detested or so deserving of abhorrence." When he became Governor, being an Episcopalian, he endeavored to force Episcopacy upon the people, confiscating their church property, annulling their ordinances and 36 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church otherwise by bigotry, despotism, injustice and insatiable avarice op- pressed and aroused the people. Among- the congregations that suffered most was the Presbyterian Church at Newtown, my former beloved charge. He seized that church and took possession of it. At Jamaica he did a despicable thing in taking the parsonage of the Presbyterian minister, Mr, Hubbard, which Mr. Hubbard tendered him during an epidemic in the City of New York, Mr. Hubbard thereby putting himself to considerable trouble and inconvenience for the Governor's accommodation. In return for his kindness he, Cornbury, when leaving the place, delivered it into the hands of Episcopal parties, at the same time directing the sheriff to confiscate the parsonage land and church building. He then appointed Mr. Urquhart as rector of Jamaica, Newtown and Flushing, and at about the same time issued an order prohibiting other ministers from preaching within the bounds of his province without special license from him- self, an entirely illegal and unwarrantable usurpation of the rights of the people, since the Duke of York had publicly decreed the right to every town of selecting its own minister. In these and many other ways this tyrannical Governor made the years of his rule a time of great trial. And here I quote from a previous historical dis- course delivered at Newtown as follows: "Before this oppression Rev. Robert Breck had to flee. Others who followed him in preach- ing here (that is in Newtown) were put in prison. In 1707 Rev. John Hampton and the Rev. Francis Makemie, who were on their way to New England from the South, stopped at New York. Upon invitation of the people of Newtown these two Presbyterian clergy- men visited the place to preach to them. What happened to them can best be stated from the records known as the "Narrative of Im- prisonment," dated Jan. 23d, 1707. "The Rev. John Hampton, an itinerant minister, preached on Sunday, Jan. 20th, in the Presbyterian Church, Newtown, without having first procured a license from Gov. Cornbury, and also gave notice that Rev. Francis Makemie would officiate there on Wednesday. But Gov. Cornbury, antici- pating them, had them both arrested as soon as they reached New- town, by Thomas Carsdale, High Sheriff of Queens County, and Stephen Luff, Under Sheriff. They were kept as prisoners on parole at the houses of two of the neighbors that night. The next day they were led off in a sort of triumph to Jamaica, seven or eight miles out of the direct road, and there kept all day and night. On Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 37 the 23d, at noon, they got to the Fort in New York. After vexa- tion and delays they were tried for dissenting doctrines to the great disturbance of the Church by law established. The jury, however, acquitted them, but the Governor took his spite against them in imposing a long bill of costs upon them, £83 7s 6d, over four hun- dred dollars, which they had to pay before they were released. Liv- ingston, writing shortly after this injustice, wrote: "If any want in- formation concerning suffering of other dissenters, both in persons, estates and reHgious liberties, I recommend them to the body of inhabitants of Jamaica and Newtown." And here let me say that it gives me unspeakable pleasure to be able to state to you that in the progress of preparing this his- torical review I have discovered who was by his able plea so largely instrumental in gaining the verdict of acquittal for Revs. Hampton and Makemie. That person was William Nicoll, to whom Giles Sylvester bequeathed such a large portion of Shelter Island. For this notable service I here publicly salute his descendants and invoke God's special blessing to rest upon them ; and in blessing them may God likewise bless you all. 2 8 Slielter Island and Its Presbyterian Church CHAPTER III. The second section of our historical paper on Shelter Island and the Presbyterian Church closed with a courteous acknowledg- ment of the signal service which William Nicoll rendered, in es- pousing the cause of Revs. Makemie and Hampton against Lord Cornbury's persecution, and brought our review down to the year 1704, the year in which the said William Nicoll came by inheritance into possession of Sachem's Neck. We now have cause to mention another family who about that time came upon this island, the members and descendants of which became very prominent in the life of this place, and of great service to our church. I refer to the Havens family. About 1698 Na- thaniel Sylvester the 2d sold 1,000 acres to Geo. Havens. After dis- posing of this land the said Nathaniel Sylvester, having married Miss Margaret Hobert, daughter of Isaiah Hobert, of East Hampton, moved with his family to Newport, R. I., where he engaged in business as a merchant. The 1,000 acres which Mr. Havens bought of Mr. Sylvester covered all the central portion of the island, in- cluding the ground now belonging to our church. Though most of this purchase has passed into other hands, eighty-five acres still remain in the Havens family, being owned at present by Henry P. Havens, who is of the seventh generation in continuous possession, a direct descendant of the first George Havens. This George Havens was the son of William Havens, a Welshman, who came to America about the year 1635 and settled on Conanticut Island, near Newport, R. I. Upon making the foregoing purchase, Mr. George Havens moved to this island with his family, which consisted of him- self, a wife and seven chidren, three sons and four daughters. Be- sides these children there was another son named George, who did not move with the family to Shelter Island, but continued to live in Rhode Island, as the following abstract of a deed indicates, namely: "For good and sufificient reasons I have and bear to my loving son, George Havens, of Kingstowne in ye Narrowgansett Country, have given to my said son George Havens for ever, if my said son George shall goe and live on said land hereinafter granted, that is too say two hundred and fifty acres of my farm on Shelter Island. Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church ^g Dated Oct., in ye 13 year of his Majy's reigne, Anno Domini, 1701. GEORGE HAVENS." It is presumed that this son did not improve this offer, as his will is dated from Fisher's Island, Oct. 31, 1726. Mr. George Havens, Sr., continued to reside here until his death, in 1706. While visiting the ancient burying ground of New London, Conn., this past summer, in search of certain epitaphs, I accidentally came upon the grave and tombstone of Mr. George Havens, the first Havens of Shelter Island. I had searched and inquired for it in all directions, but without success. One can therefore imagine the surprise and pleasure that was mine when the above discovery was made. The grave can be easily found by those interested, as it is marked by a small brown stone headstone, with the following in- scription upon it: "George Havens, who deceased Feb. 25, 1706, ae 53y'rs." His wife survived him and married again a Mr. Thomas Terry, of Southold. She lived to the great age of 93, passing away in 1747, and was buried in the south church yard, where a suitable stone with clear inscription stands to her memory. And thus the community continued to grow, both from natural increase and accretion, until in 1730, there were twenty men, most of them heads of famihes, residing on this island. Their names were as follows: William Nicoll, John Havens, Samuel Hudson, George Havens, Elisha Payne, Joel Bowditch, Abraham Parker, Ed- ward Havens, Samuel Vail, Thomas Conkling, Edward Oilman, Brinley Sylvester, Jonathan Havens, Joseph Havens, Noah Tuthill, Sylvester L'Hommedieu, Henry Havens, Samuel Hopkins, John Bowditch, Daniel Brown. These men organized Shelter Island into a municipality of its own, and are therefore the Founders of the Town of Shelter Island. Up to this date, 1730, our Island met with Southold in its Annual Town Meetings. J. Wickham Case, compiler of the Southold Town Records, says that in its earliest stages Shelter Island associated itself with Southold, so far as to recognize their books as the proper place for the record of deeds and valuable papers, and to meet (but not to vote) with them at their Annual Town Meeting. Shelter Island, however, as we have already seen, was placed on the same footing "as any other town, unfranchised place or manor within this govern- ment," as early as May, 1666, by Governor Nicoll. In 1683, when the Province and its dependencies was divided off into Shires and AO Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church Counties in response to an act bearing- the date of 2d Nov., 1683, Shelter Island was again officially set off as a Township of Suffolk County. Still it was not fully organized into a town by the selec- tion of town officers; perhaps because there were so few male in- habitants of full age living at that time on our Island. But in 1730 it was commanded by an act of the General Assembly of the Province of New York, dated 12th of July, 1729, to choose its first public offi- cials. This act was entitled as follows: "To ascertain the allowance to the Representatives for the county of Suffolk and for other pur- poses therein mentioned." In the fourth clause of which we read: "And be it further enacted by the same authority that from and after the Publication of this act, it shall and may be lawful for the In- habitants of Shelter Island, in the County of Suffolk, and they are hereby impowered and required, annually on the first Tuesday in the month of April, to elect and chuse among them two Asessors and a Collector, to assess and collect such Taxes as shall be now or here- after laid or imposed on them, and a Constable and Supervisor for keeping the Peace and auditing their Public Accounts at the Time the County of Suffolk shall do, by virtue of this Act." In response to that commandatory act of the Colonial Assem- bly, it met the following year for the first time in a Town meeting of its own, as the following record, the first that appears upon our Town records, will show: "Suffolk County, Precinct of Shelter Island, 7th April, 1730. At a meeting held at the said place and time, the inhabitants of this said precinct proceeded and chose ac- cording to an act of the Gen'l Assembly made in the Province of New York in the third year of the Reign of King George the Second over Great Britain, &c., as followeth, viz.: William Nicoll, Supervisor. John Havens, a o Tj r Assessors. Samuel Hudson, Edward Havens, Collector. Edward Oilman, Constable." I have deemed it important to fix if possible the antecedents of these twenty men, who were the founders of our town, and have de- voted a great deal of labor to this matter, with the following results. We will begin with: I. WILLIAM NICOLL, who was chosen to be the first Super- visor of the Town. He was the second son of William Nicoll, and Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 41 is known as William Nicoll the second, also in history as Speaker Nicoll. He was born in 1702, and graduated with his brother, Ben- jamin, from Yale College in 1724. Like his father, he was edu- cated for the bar, and became an eminent lawyer, continuing his legal practice after taking up his residence on Sachem's Neck, somewhere about 1726. His father died in 1723 and bequeathed him all of his estate located on this island. He then removed to this island, where he became the representative or foremost man of the Town, serving as Supervisor for ten years. In 1739 he was elected to the Colonial Assembly, like his father before him, and continued to serve until his death, in 1768, a period of twenty-nine years, during the last nine of which he served as Speaker of the House. Thus our first Super- visor was a very distinguished man, an eminent statesman, reflecting no small honor upon Shelter Island, which continued to be his home until his death, which came to him suddenly at a house on the Hempstead Plains Dec. 3d, 1768, as he was returning from his pubhc duties. Thompson says: "He was a man of sound and discrimi- nating mind, bold and fearless as a politician, and an unwavering asserter of the rights and liberties of the colony. In all public acts as a legislator he was diligent and attentive to every duty devolving upon him." And Wood says in his history "that he resembled his father in his political sentiments, and was a decided friend of the rights of the colonies. He is supposed to have concurred in the addresses to the King, lords and commons, respectively, which were adopted by the Assembly in 1764 and 1765, and which he signed as their Speaker. These addresses abound with patriotic sentiments. In that of 1764 they say that Tt would be the basest vassalage to be taxed at the pleasure of a fellow subject." In that of 1765 they say that "An assumption of power by the British Parliament to tax the colonies, if asquiesced in or admitted, would make them mere tenants at will of his majesty's subjects in Britain." This William Nicoll, dying without issue, left his estate on this island to a son of his brother Benjamin, also named WilHam Nicoll, commonly called "Clerk Nicoll," because he served as County Clerk for twenty-six years, being the last Clerk of the County under the Colonial Government. He not only succeeded his uncle in the pos- session of the Nicoll estate on Shelter Island, but was also chosen to succeed him in the Assembly, and continued to serve in that body until it was dissolved in consequence of the Revolution. This is in- deed a remarkable thing, that three William Nicolls should succeed 42 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church each other, not only as the owners of that estate, but as representa- tives in the Assembly, the first William Nicoll serving- twenty-one years, and as Speaker for sixteen years of the time; the second William Nicoll for twenty-nine years, and as Speaker for nine years of the time, and the third William Nicoll for nine years, or until the Colonial Assembly was dissolved. Truly Shelter Island can refer with pride to her first Supervisor. 2. JOHN HAVENS, one of the first two assessors of our Town, was the fourth son of George Havens and Eleanor Thurston, and married a lady whose given name was Sarah. He was elected Town Assessor in 1730, 1734, 1739 and 1744, and Overseer of the Poor in I735> 1737 and 1743. In 1744 he moved to the Town of Brookhaven with his family, where he became an extensive land-owner and the progenitor of a large family. He died in 1750. 3. SAMUEL HUDSON, the second of the first two Assessors of our Town, was the son of Jonathan and Sarah Hudson. His parents came from Lyme, Conn., to Shelter Island. Samuel Hud- son married Grissel L'Hommedieu, daughter of Benjamin and Pa- tience L'Hommedieu, and granddaughter of the original settler of this island, Mr. Nathaniel Sylvester. Mr. Hudson served as County Clerk of Suffolk County from 1722 to 1730, and in 1746, with his brother Jonathan, joined Capt. James Fanning's company of volun- teers and served in the expedition against Canada. He died Oct. I2th, 1781. 4. EDWARD HAVENS was the son of George and Mary Havens, of Fisher's Island. His father was the eldest son of the George Havens who purchased the 1,000 acres of Nathaniel Syl- vester. Very httle is known of this Edward Havens, save that he married Desire Terry in 1724. He was the first Collector of the Town. His name appears but once on the Town records, namely, in 1730. 5. EDWARD GILMAN. Of this person we know the least of all the twenty. Though we have searched in every direction, nothing has been found concerning him. The name "Gilman" does not ap- pear in this region on any record save our own. The will of Joseph Moore, of Southampton, dated March 21, 1723, speaks of a daughter- in-law, "Sarah Oilman." 6. GEORGE HAVENS was the son of George and Mary Havens, of Fisher's Island, and brother to Edward Havens. He married Mary and had a son named George, to whom. Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 43 with his mother, letters of administration were granted in 1734, the father and husband having- died the previous year. 7. ELISHA PAYNE was the son of CorneHus and Constant (Havens) Payne. His father in 1698 bought 200 acres of land on this island from Giles Sylvester. At that time he lived on Gardiner's Island, as a husbandman. Upon becoming a landowner here he moved to this island, for in a bond of Giles Sylvester, dated 27th June, 1699, he is spoken of as a "yeoman of Shelter Island." Elisha Payne served the Town as Constable and Collector in 1740 and 1748 respectively. In 1748 he married Deliverance Tuthill, and died in 1761, leaving a widow and several children. (See census list of 1771.) 8. SYLVESTER L'HOMMEDIEU was the son of Benjamin and Patience L'Hommedieu, of Southold. He married Elizabeth More, and was the father of Samuel L'Hommedieu, a distinguished citizen of Sag Harbor, at one time a member of the Assembly. Sylvester L'Hommedieu served as Collector and Constable in 1732. He died March 9, 1788, and lies buried in the church yard at Southold, L. I. 9. HENRY HAVENS was the oldest son of John and Sarah Havens. My information is derived from the will of John Havens, of Brookhaven, in which he bequeathed to his oldest son Henry 370 acres of land on Shelter Island. The date of the will is 1749. This Henry Havens married Abigail Tuthill, sister of Noah Tuthill, one of the Town fathers. His father, John Havens, as has been already mentioned, moved to Brookhaven about the year 1745. Henry Havens was a town officer for over ten years. 10. THOMAS CONKLING was the son of John and Sarah (Horton) Conkling, of Southold, L. I., a descendant of one of the first settlers of that ancient town. In 1732 he married Rachel Moore, by whom he had five children. His youngest son, Benjamin, was the gentleman who at his death in 1826 bequeathed a large sum of money to our church. Thomas Conkling served the Town in the various positions as Assessor, Constable and Overseer of the Poor, from 1739 to 1 76 1, He died in 1782 at the ripe age of eighty-seven. 11. JONATHAN HAVENS was the second son of George and Eleanor (Thurston) Havens, born at Jamestown, R. I., Feb. 22, 1681. Upon attaining his majority his father gave. him 200 acres of his property on this island. In 1707 he married Hannah Brown, daughter of Jonathan and Ehza Sylvester Brown, and grand- 44 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church daughter of the fist Nathaniel Sylvester, by whom he had ten chil- dren. He was an Assessor of the Town for twelve years, Overseer of the Poor two years, and Supervisor one year. Mr. Havens died Aug. 5th, 1748, in the sixty-eighth year of his age, and lies buried in the south church-yard. 12. JOSEPH HAVENS was the son of Jonathan Havens and Hannah Brown. According to his tombstone in the south church- yard he was born in 1714. He was twice married. His first wife was Madam Mary Watts, a lady of refinement. She died in 1768, In 1769 he married Jemima Glover, by whom he had one son. Father, mother and son all passed away in a few years. Mr. Havens was Constable and Collector of the Town in 1737. He afterwards moved into the town of Southampton, from whence his will is dated. 13. NOAH TUTHILL was the third son of Deacon Daniel and Mehetable (Horton) Tuthill, born in Orient, L. I. The Tut- hills and the Hortons were among the first settlers of Southold, and their descendants are legion. Noah Tuthill married a relation by the name of Hannah Tuthill. Many of his descendants live among us to-day. He was a Town officer for several years. He died in 1766, and is supposed to have been buried in the family burying ground upon the Tuthill homestead in Orient. 14. JOEL BOWDITCH. Who he was the son of or whence he came we cannot positively tell. But it is presumed that he came to Shelter Island from the region of Sag Harbor. A Joel Bow- ditch is mentioned by Judge Hedges in his "History of East Hamp- ton" as a resident of that Town from 1704 to 1718. In 1718 an Abigail Bowditch married Nathan Fordham, of Sag Harbor. She had a grandchild named "Joel." Joel Bowditch, the subject of this sketch, married Ruth and had several children. He was the progenitor of the Bowditch's who live among us, and served as Town officer for many years, or until his death, in 1746. 15. JOHN BOWDITCH. What is said about Joel Bowditch applies equally as well to this man, as far as his parentage is con- cerned. It is presumed that he was the son of Joel Bowditch. We cannot tell whether he ever xnarried; it is rather doubtful that he ever did. His name appears but once among the Town officers, under date of 1738, when he was chosen Constable and Collector. 16. SAMUEL HOPKINS was the son of William and Rebecca Hopkins, of this place, a direct, and close descendant of Stephen Hopkms -and-Giks~-Hepkins^two of the immortal Mayflower -pii=~- Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church ac grims, being- the great-grandson of the former and grandson of the latter. According to the inscription upon his tomb- stone at Miller's Place, Samuel Hopkins was born on Shelter Island about 1710. His father moved to Shelter Island about 1680, and in time became a man of considerable property. In an account book of WilHam Hopkins, the following names appear between the dates of 1680 and 1710: Gideon Youngs 1681, Samuel King 1682, John Conklin 1682, Thomas Young 1685, John Tuthill 1685, Caleb Curtis 1688, John Marlin, Feb. 19, 1689, Thomas Torrey 1691, John Carter 1695, Samuel Glover 1696, James Rogers 1700, Edward Bon- net 1 701, Jonathan Hains 1703, Cornelius Pain 1705, Indian Able, Indian Squaw, John Hobson, Jonathan Brown, Jacob Conklin, Jonathan Hudson, Lion Gardner, Henry Tuthill, Richard Brown, Rebecca Crook, William King, Walter Brown, Martha Collins, John Knowling, Thomas Russell, Mr. Emmons, Mary Young (widow). Samuel Hopkins was a carpenter and mason. From 1743 until 1756 he lived at Wading River. In 1757 he bought property at Millers Place and moved there, and made it his home until his death, in 1790. In 1733 he served this Town as Constable and Collector. 17. ABRAHAM PARKER. We cannot tell definitely who were the parents of Abraham Parker. He is said to have been born in Yorkshire, England. Several Parkers lived on this island prior to the organization of the Town. As early as 1698 a Nathaniel Parker appears as a witness on the deed of Giles Sylvester to Cor- nelius Payne. In 1701 a Daniel Parke appeared in the same ca- pacity on the deed of George Havens to Jonathan his son. Abra- ham Parker married probably twice. His first wife was Sarah Hud- son, daughter of Jonathan and Sarah Hudson. His second wife was Mary Hudson, the widow of Jonathan Hudson, who was brother to his first wife. He served as Collector and Constable in 1731, as Assessor in 1736, and as Overseer of the Poor in 1738 and 1742. He died in March, 1768. 18. DANIEL BROWN was the son of Daniel and Frances (Watson) Brown, born Nov. 15, 1710. His great-grandparents, Chad and Elizabeth Brown, came from England in the ship "Mar- tin," which arrived at Boston in July, 1638. The same year they moved to Providence, R. I., where Chad Browne was one of the original proprietors of the Providence purchase. In 1642 he was ordained the first settled pastor of the Baptist church. The children of Chad and Elizabeth Brown were sons John, James, Jeremiah, 46 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church Judah or Chad, and Daniel. Their daughters were Mary, Deborah and Phebe. Jeremiah, the third son, was twice married, his second wife being Mary (Havens) Cook, widow of Thomas Cook and daughter of the first WilHam Havens. His son Daniel, who married Frances Watson, was the father of the subject of this sketch. Like his grandfather, Jeremiah Browne, our Daniel Brown married twice, his second wife likewise being named Mary Havens, whom he mar- ried Dec. 21, 1735, and by whom he had a large family. He was Supervisor of this Town for twenty years. In 1747 he enlisted in the First Battalion (foot) under Capt. James Fanning, to go against Canada. In 1775 and 'yS, at the outbreak of the American Revo- lution, he was a member of the First, Second and Third Provincial Congresses. These and other items show him to have been a man of great importance in the community; one highly esteemed and greatly trusted by his fellow men. 19. SAMUEL VAIL was the son of John and Grace Vail, ac- cording to Moore's Index. His grandfather was also named John Vail, and was the first person by the name in this country, coming from Wales. In 1723 Samuel Vail married Hannah Petty. He was also in time a Town officer, serving as Constable and Collector in 1735 and as Overseer of the Poor in 1741. About this date he moved with his family to Orange County and settled in what is called the West Division of Goshen. Many of his descendants are living in that region at the present time. No genealogical record of the descendants of Samuel Vail has been attempted by the writer of this book, as a genealogy of the "Vail" family is in existence, gathered together by the late Mr. Alfred Vail. It is deposited in the New York Genealogical and Biographical Library, and can there be consulted by those interested. 20. BRINLEY SYLVESTER was the son of the second Na- thaniel Sylvester and Margaret Hobert, of Easthampton, L. I., where he was born Nov. 28th, 1694. He married Mary Burroughs, daughter of Thomas Burroughs, of New York, at Southold, Dec. 2d, 1718, the Rev. Geo. Phillips officiating. He lived for awhile at Newport, R. I., whither his father had moved, upon disposing of 1,000 acres to George Havens, and engaged in business as a merchant. This left the father with comparatively little land on this island. His possessions, however, were vastly increased upon the death of his brother Giles, in 1704, who bequeathed to him of his estate an amount of land equal in extent to two-fifths of the Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 47 island. This, together with what he had retained, made him owner of about one-half of Shelter Island. Upon the death of his father, Brinley Sylvester, having inherited the large family estate on this island, moved from Rhode Island to this place, where he re- sided till his death in 1752. Upon coming to this island Brinley Sylvester set about improving the property. The original manor house he displaced by a more imposing mansion, built in 1733. It is said that when he was building this new house, which was the largest structure of its kind in the three counties of Long Island, it occasioned much talk among his puritan friends, and the raising of it was made a great affair for those days, Mrs. Brinley Sylvester coming from the west end of Long Island to see it. Much of the interior work, such as the cor- nices, panels, wainscoting, and the like, was executed in England, while that which was serviceable of the prior homestead, such as the doors, sashes, tiles, etc., were worked into the new building. That house is, as you know, still standing and well preserved, though now over a hundred and sixty years old, and in some of its parts spans the whole period of the settlement of this island, that is, two hundred and forty-five years. In it Brinley Sylvester lived like a lord, far exceeding all his predecessors in the grandeur of his living. He presided over his rich and extensive estate with great dignity, being a gentleman of polished manners, scholarly in his tastes and generous to a fault. For more than twenty years he held public office in this town, sometimes discharging the duties of several offices together. During this time he was also one of the Associate Justices of the Court of General Sessions. He likewise acted as Surrogate of the County, the will of John Gardiner, the third pro- prietor of Gardiner's Island, being admitted to probate before him on the 1st of August, 1738. As yet there being no church on the island, he with his family attended divine service at Southold, going all the way by water in a handsome barge rowed by four well matched negroes. Mrs. Sylvester, his wife, used to wear on such occasions a silk velvet mantle inwrought with gold, and sometimes the ven- erable clergyman, Mr. Youngs, would say, "I am afraid you are proud of your fine barge and rich dress, Mrs. Sylvester." "Oh, no, sir," she answered. "If there is anything I am proud of it is the fine linen I make." Mr. Brinley Sylvester kept a chaplain in his family in the person of the Rev. William Adams. His family con- sisted of himself, his wife and two daughters, named Mary and 48 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church Margaret. Mr. Sylvester was a man of ardent piety, a communicant of the church at Southold. He did much for reHgion on this island, as will be seen later on, and at his death left £100 sterling for the maintenance of religion on this island, the interest of which was to be expended in the support of a regular orthodox Presbyterian min- ister. His funeral was conducted by the Rev. William Throop, pastor of the Southold church, the sermori then delivered being afterwards printed in Boston. His body was at first buried in the Sylvester burying ground, and afterwards moved to the private cemetery in the rear of this church, where an appropriate monument is erected to his memory. In the death of this distinguished Chris- tian gentleman the name of Sylvester became extinct on this island. To recapitulate what I have now written of the founders of the Town. It will be seen that six of the twenty men bore the name of Havens. These, as one would suppose, were related to each other. Two of them were sons and the rest grandsons of George and Eleanor Havens. They were all born in America, and two of them on this island. To these six men several of the remainder of our- Town fathers were also related through marriage, namely, Noah Tuthill-, Elisha Payne, William Nicoll and Daniel Brown. Of the ^ rest Abraham Parker, Samuel Hudson, Sylvester L'Hommedieu and Brinley Sylvester were related to each other, the last three being grandsons of our first settler, Nathaniel Sylvester. Then too it is thought that Joel and John Bowditch were father and son, while of the remainder Samuel Hopkins bore the proud distinction of being a direct and close descendant of the Mayflower Pilgrims. The an- cestors of these men who were our Town fathers were English, Welsh, and in one instance French. All, except in one instance, as far as is known were born in this country, and a number of them on this island. They were sturdy men, men of intelligence, and not a few of them, men of renown. They were lovers of liberty, of virtue, of piety, ready to respond to their country's call, full of en- terprise, industry and zeal; men who in every respect were worthy to be the founders of our Town. We do well to cherish their memory and imitate their virtues. Thus far our history has been solely occupied with the settlement of this place and its development into a Town, a period covering eighty years or more. Now we come to the time when there first appeared something like a religious society on this island, and then only in the outward or material form of a meeting house or church Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 49 building. The absence of such a place of worship for these many years was not because the inhabitants lacked religious life and con- victions, for, as Dr. Woolworth said in his dedicatory sermon, "From the beginning of the settlement of this island there were not wanting such individuals among its inhabitants as feared God, pro- fessed His name and manifested a commendable concern and zeal for His sacred cause. The population was, however, for a long time so inconsiderable that no exertions were made for the introduction of regular public worship among themselves. Those who were seriously disposed attended the churches in the vicinity of the island. This was the state of things until the early part of the last century, when a decent house of public worship was erected." And thus it was that the building of a sanctuary was so long delayed. Now, how- ever, steps were taken towards the erection of a house of God, a place of worship. This was in 1732, as the following copy of a sub- scription paper will show: "We whos names are hereunto subscribed haveing the Interests of Our Common Lord at heart and being willing to Contribute for the promoting and Incouraging the Cause and Interest of Religion upon Shelter Island, and Considering ye Small num- ber of the Inhabitants do Covenant and promise to pay or Cause to be paid the Several Sums Affixed to our names to Brinley Sylvester or Order at or before the first day of January next ensuing the Date ^hereof, for the erecting, building and Com- pleating a Meeting house for the publick worship of Almighty God and not otherwise. In witness whereof we have Set to our names to Geather with ye Several Sums annexed this 19th Day of August Anno Dom., 1732." Benj. L'Hommedieu, Jr.. lo Benj. Woolsey 2 Benj.

Smith Ephraim Hopkins, Jr., work Received of Dr. Howell. . Mat. Burnes ... lO S. Whitehead Tho. Chatfield lO lO 13 5 How soon the purpose was accomplished it is hard to tell, since different dates by different writers have been given. Thomp- son, in the first edition of his "History of Long Island," says: "The first church was erected by the Presbyterians in 1733, the funds for defraying the expenses of which were collected upon the island and the adjacent towns." In his second edition, however, published some four years later than the first, greatly enlarged and far more cor- rect, he changes the foregoing statement and makes it read thus: "The first meeting house was completed in 1743, and remained until 1816, when the present church was erected on the same site." He precedes this statement with another, which goes to show that the latter date is the correct one. That foregoing statement is to the effect that in 1742 Jonathan Havens, Jr., gave a half acre of ground near the middle of the island for the setting of a meeting house and for a burying ground, and the next year, in 1743, he associated with others in erecting a building for religious worship, and to accom- plish their benevolent design contributions were solicited in the neighboring towns, and even in the cities of New York and Boston. Dr. Prime, who wrote an ecclesiastical history of Long Island, and which appeared two years later than Dr. Thompson's second edi- tion, the purpose of which, as its title would imply, brought him into closer touch with church history here and elsewhere, for which reason we may believe it the more reliable in ecclesiastical matters, confirms in general the second date of Thompson. He says: "It is difficult to ascertain the exact date of the erection of the first house of worship, but it is supposed to have been somewhere near the middle of the last century." He further adds that it was built under the supervision of Brinley Sylvester, who was the principal pro- prietor of the island. All this goes to confirm the latter date of 1743 as the correct one, being nearer to the middle of the last cen- tury than 1733, and further, being the year following the one in which the donor of the land, Jonathan Havens, Jr., set apart his gift for the purpose of "setting a meeting house and for a burying ground. And since this is the date, I am inclined to believe that the effort set on foot in 1732 was accomphshed in 1743. Perhaps the completion of the purpose was hastened toward the end by the Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 51 great revival which spread over the eastern end of Long Island during the decade of 1740, for it is well known that a great religious awakening makes a community sensible of its religious needs, which most generally finds its expression in the erection of a sanctuary or in the renovation of the same. Regarding that original meeting house of Shelter Island, built over one hundred and fifty years ago, there are still those living in our midst who remember it with affection. Its shape was quad- rangle, with a quadrangle roof, by which is meant that its dimensions were the same on all four sides, and that its roof slanted upward and inward from all four sides, meeting in the center, the whole perhaps surmounted by a cupola. It has been described as "a small square building with four roofs meeting at a point." Some of its furnishings, such as the pulpit, sounding board, stairs and a few of its pews were brought from the Rutgers street church in New York. The building, according to Rev, Mr. Lord, was mainly owned by the proprietors of the island, who held the sole and ex- clusive right of the pews. It stood on this very spot where we now worship until the beginning of this present structure, when it was moved to the eastward, where the parsonage now stands, being there used while the new house of worship was being erected, after which it was again moved to the westward, near the middle of the lot opposite the grist mill, where it served the purpose of a sheepfold until time and decay had completed its destruction. Rev. Mr. Lord, in his historical sermon of 1856, speaks of it thus: "The place where it stood and its whole aspect rises up before me in vivid recollection. It was a house every way worthy of Goldsmith's Deserted Village, always abating its dimensions. It was old and of narrow accom- modations. A quadrate building with a quadrate roof. It was at the time of its erection probably equal to the wants of the people, but at the time of which I am speaking the tooth of time had made such inroads upon it that it gave unmistakable evidence of decay. It had one semblance at least to the sanctuary of which the Psalmist speaks: Tn it the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young.' Among the first ministers to officiate in the building was the Rev. WilHam Adams, who occupied the position of chaplain to Mr. Brinley Sylvester and his family, having his home in the Manor House. Mr. Adams, at the time of his coming to this island, was a young man of twenty- seven years of age, the son of the Rev. Eliphalet Adams, of Con- 52 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church necticut, and a graduate of Yale in 1730. Upon graduation — I quote from the Annals of the American Pulpit — he became a tutor for two years, after which a preacher of more than sixty years. He was never married nor ordained, as he declared he would not be "encumbered either with a wife or a parish." He first preached in the North Parish of New London, now known as Montville, and later in North Groton, now called Ledyard, after the withdrawal of the Rev. Ebenezer Punderson. In 1735 he declined a unanimous call from the latter parish. In January, 1737, he began to preach in Guilford, and continued there until he came to this island, presuma- bly in the latter part of that year, and here he continued until Mr. Brinley Sylvester's death in 1752. The next year, in October of 1753, his father died. He was then invited to supply the vacant pulpit of New London, which he did until February, 1756. . In 1758 he began to preach at Orient, and continued there until 1760. In that year Mr. Thomas Dering, having moved with his family upon the estate of his wife, Mrs. Mary Sylvester Dering, he resumed his residence in the manor house as private chaplain, and continued in this relation until the breaking out of the Revolution, when Mr. Dering had to take refuge with his family within the American lines. Altogether he is said to have labored here for more than thirty years. He was here when the great evangehst Whitefield visited the island in 1764. His latter years were spent in New London, chiefly in social enjoyment and domestic repose. He frequently rambled into the country on visits to the farmers belonging to the parish, and always made it a point on such occasions to communicate more or less religious instruction. He was short and stout, wore a white wig and a cocked hat, and usually walked about the streets dressed in a black study gown. He was a respectable preacher, but in nowise eminent. He has left one sermon in printed form, preached on the day of Thanksgiving for the success of the British arms in the reduction of Montreal and the Conquest of Canada in 1760. He died September 25th, 1798, in the 88th year of his age. While occupying the position of chaplain to the Sylvesters, Rev. Mr. Adams likewise fulfilled the duties of preacher and pastor to the community. This is established by the following paper, which is in substance a call to Mr. Adams extended by the citizens of this place to become their pastor: "We the Inhabitance of Shelter Island in Sufifolk County, In the Province of New York, by the providence of God being In- Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 53 capable of a Constant attendance upon ye Publick worship of God in any of the neighboring Towns, and being sensable that it is our Incumbent duty to do to the utmost of our power to promote and advance ye Kingdom and Interests of our Lord Jesus Christ, as well as the salvation of our own souls do there- fore out of a sense of duty and for the Incouragement of a min- ister to preach tlie Gospel amongst us do promise and Ingage every person for himselve to pay or cause to be paid the several sums of New York money affixed to our respective names here under written to Mr. William Adams to preach the Gospel on Shelter Island as in such case is customary and that for the space of one year, in witness whereof we have set our hand this first Day of April Anno Dom,, 1746: For one Year. Joel Bowditch 2 Abraham Parker, Jr 8 Abraham Parker, i Elisha Pain i Samuel Case Thomas Conkling lo lO 12 Per Annum Henry Havens 4 Joseph Havens William Havens Hogneck, I John Havens i William Havens i Noah Tuttell 2 This paper, drawn up evidently by the same hand that drew up the subscription paper of 1732, is in the handwriting of Mr. Brinley Sylvester, so that both papers can be said to have had Mr. Sylvester as their author. This call to the Rev. William Adams for his pas- toral services bears the date of the first day of April, Anno Dom. 1746." The following April the Presbytery of Long Island met by commission in this place, as the following extract of the Presbytery's minutes will show: "Shelter Island, April 21, 1747. Met according to the order and appointment of Presbytery in the preceding session, Messrs. Nathaniel Mather, Silvanus White and Samuel Buell, to communi- cate to each other the Sentiments and Dispositions of their par- ticular Churches relative to Presbyterian Government as exhibited in the Plan of our Covenanted Union Upon representation then made it appeared hopefull that most of the Churches on the east end of Long Island would comply with and submit to Presby- terian Government." On June 11, 1766, the Presbytery of Long Island held a most important meeting on this island. It was for the express purpose of ordaining a young man to the ministry of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. This is such an important event in the life of this 54 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church people that I embody entirely so much of Presbytery's minutes as apply to it, and which is as follows "A'let according to adjournment at Shelter Island, June nth, 1766. Present, Messrs. Prime, Buell, Lewis, Barker, Brown, Tall- madge, Goldsmith, Paine and Rosse. Absent, Messrs. Mills, Reeve and Occam. Correspondents were the Rev. Messrs. Charles Jeffry, Smith and Abner Brush. Elder, James Reeve. Mr. Tallmadge moderator and Mr. Rosse chosen clerk, "P. P. S. Q. S. Ordered that the minutes of the last Sederunt be read, Mr. Elam Potter exhibited to the Presbytery Three sev- eral sermons, composed from Texts of Scripture before given. And the Presbytery proceeded to further examination. Adjourned to to-morrow morning 8 o'clock. "P. P. S. Q. S. Ordered the minutes of the last Sederunt be read. Referred the examination of Mr. Potter, and proceeded so far as to obtain satisfaction. Appointed his ordination at one o'clock, P, M. Attended in the following order — Mr. Lewis intro- duced the solemnity by prayer, Mr. Buell preached from James v: 20, Mr, Brown took the engagements of the Candidate and his pro- fession of Faith as exhibited in our public standards of Orthodoxy; Mr. Smith prayed at the laying on of Hands, Mr. Tallmadge gave the right hand of Fellowship, and Mr. Prime the charge. Mr. Pot- ter pointed out the Psalm and pronounced the blessing." And thus on this island was one ordained to the gospel ministry. It must have been a memorable occasion, one that is worthy of a permanent place in the history of this island and church. So far as I know this has been the only instance of ordination on our island. May it, however, not stand alone very long, but be followed by many others of the sons of this church, several of whom are now preaching the blessed gospel of the Son of God. In many respects the Rev. Elam Potter proved himself a workman skilled in his high office. The year after his ordination he went on an ex- tended missionary tour southward, and on his return he became pastor of the Congregational Church in Enfield, Conn., from 1769 to April, 1776. In November, 1792, he was settled over the Pres- byterian Church at Southold, where he remained until his death, in 1794. His remains were buried in the church-yard of that place, and over his grave was raised a brownstone slab bearing the follow- ing epitaph: "Beneath this dust lie the remains of the Rev. Elam Potter, Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church cc a faithful good minister of Jesus Christ. He died Jany 5th, age 52, in the year 1794: Forbear to weep my loving friends, Death is the voice, Jehovah sends To call us to our home. Through these dark shades from pain redrest Is the right path to endless rest Where joys immortal bloom." Mr. Potter was the son of Daniel Potter, and was born in East Haven, Conn., Jan. ist, 1741-42. He graduated from Yale College in 1765. In a printed sermon of his, bearing date of Enfield, Sept. 12, 1777, there appears this closing note, in the form of an address: "To the whole land. My Countrymen and Brethren, I beseech you for the Lord's sake, put away the Negro Slavery; abhor all jesting with God's holy Word; submit to the glorious Immanuel, and let us honor Him, that we may be happy in His favour." May all who read these gracious words heed them so far as they apply to present conditions. In the biographical sketch of the Rev. William Adams mention was made of Mr. Thomas Dering moving with his family to Shelter Island for the purpose of settling upon the estate which his wife had inherited from her father, Mr. Brinley Sylvester. In the coming of this Mr. Dering to this place there came a gentleman who proved himself indeed a worthy successor of the Sylvesters. Through the kindness of Mrs. Mary S. D. Lawrence, a great- grand-daughter of Mr. Thomas Dering, I am able to give the follow- ing biographical sketch of his life: "Mr. Thomas Dering was the son of Henry and Elizabeth Dering. He was born at Boston, Mass., May i6th, 1720, also the birthplace of his father, who was a merchant in that city. Thomas Dering was educated for a merchant, and upon the death of his father, which occurred in 1750, he, with his only brother, Henry, became the suc- cessor of his father until he removed to this island. On March 9th, 1756, he married Mary Sylvester at Newport, R. I., whither Mr. Brinley Sylvester had moved temporarily, for the education of his daughters. They were married by the Rev. Ezra Styles, afterwards President of Yale College. In the year 1760, and after the birth of three children, Mr. Dering moved with his family to this place, occu- pying the Sylvester mansion and grounds, which his wife had in- herited upon the death of her father. He now began the life of a c6 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church farmer, becoming successfully engaged in the pursuit of the various branches of agriculture. He was a man who loved the society of refined and religious people, one who counted it a privilege to enter- tain them. In return he enjoyed in an eminent degree the respect and esteem of a large circle of friends; especially was he favored with the friendship and correspondence of distinguished clergymen, as appears from letters still in the possession of his descendants. Among these were the following: Rev. George Whitefield, under whose preaching in Boston it is supposed he was first awakened to a saving knowledge of the truth; Rev. Charles Jeffry, of Brook- haven; Rev. Ebenezer Prime, of Huntington, whose first wife was a Sylvester; Rev. Dr. Samuel Buel, of East Hampton; Rev. James Brown and Rev. Dr. Aaron Woolworth, of Bridgehampton ; Rev. Mr. Barker, of Aquebogue, with whom he placed his son Sylvester at the age of ten years for the study of Latin, and the Rev. Enoch Huntington, of Middletown, Conn., near whom Mr. Dering lived during the period of the Revolution while Shelter Island was in the possession of the British. Indeed, the large mansion he occu- pied seems ever to have been the welcome home and favorite resort of clergymen of various denominations, not only during his resi- dence, but also during that of his father-in-law before him, and of his son Sylvester Dering after him. Having passed from the active duties of a merchant to the retirement of a farmer, he had ample time in which to cultivate the fellowship of his numerous friends, among whom, being a man of piety, he prized the most that of clergymen. Besides this he maintained a numerous correspondence with men in various parts, most of them being residents of Boston, which about this time was the cradle of Liberty. These kept him well informed concerning the events of the day, and through this touch with the movements towards liberty his mind became strongly biased towards Whig principles and the independence of the colonies. Among these correspondents was a lady named Miss Hepzibah Small, whose letters were most graphically written. At the breaking out of the difficulties between the colonies and the mother country, Mr. Dering took a decided stand for Liberty. In May, 1776, he was chosen a delegate to the New York Provincial Convention, which assembled at White Plains in July of that year, and which unani- mously adopted the Declaration of Independence as passed by the Provincial Congress at Philadelphia, July 4th, 1776, whereupon the convention assumed the title of the Representatives of the State of Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church e^y New York. In this body Mr. Bering served forty days, or until the British, by the battle of Long Island, obtained possession thereof, when he asked for leave of absence to look after his family and remove them to a place of security. He decided to remove to Middletown, Conn., whither he went in September, 1776, and the convention adjourned before he was able to return. Mr. Bering was also elected a member of the convention to form a constitution for the State of New York in 1777, which convention met at Fishkill. It is believed, however, that, owing to the state of his health he did not attend. He remained in Middletown, Conn., until the restoration of peace, in 1783, when he returned to his estate on this island. He had four children, three sons, Henry S., who died in infancy, Sylvester and Henry Packer, and one daugh- ter, named Elizabeth. On his return to Shelter Island he found that great depredations had been committed upon his wood- lands while the island was in the possession of the British. It is estimated that 3,300 cords of wood had been cut and taken away by the order of Lord Percy and Gen. Clinton for the use of the troops and ships stationed at Rhode Island under their command. For this damage no remuneration was ever made. With the active aid of his sons he again resumed the pursuits of agri- culture, but was not destined long to enjoy the blessings by which he was surrounded, as a protracted illness caused by paralysis termi- nated his mortal existence Sept. 26th, 1785, in the 65th year of his age. His remains lie buried in the private cemetery in the rear of the church." Among the clergymen whose acquaintance he enjoyed was the mighty evangelist Wbitefield. This renowned preacher of right- eousness is said to have made Mr. Bering's home his headquarters while visiting the eastern towns of Long Island, in 1764. Buring his stay upon the island he preached twice to its inhabitants, once in the meeting house and once in the grove near the manor house. He so enjoyed Mr. Bering's hospitality and his visit while here that he wrote him two letters so full of high regard and affection that I herewith give them to you as they appear in Prime's history. The first was written at Greenport, then known as Stirling: "My Bear Sir: Stirling, Feb. 3, 1764, At night. "What a winding world we live in! I have been a good way round, and now am come within sight of your house again. Yes- c8 Shekel' Island and Its Presbyterian Church terday the boat and all was just gone.

Add to my obli- gation by continuing to pray for, my dear friend, "Yours in the never-faiHng Jesus, "G. W." The next was written after his arrival in Boston, and is as follows : Boston, May 2, 1764. "And is Shelter Island become a Patmos? It seems so by my dear friend's letter. Blessed be God! Blessed be God! What can- not a God in Christ do for His people. All things well. Though he leads them seemingly in a round about, yet it is a right way. Though they pass through the fire, yet it does not consume — though through deep, yea, very deep waters, yet it does not overwhelm, so as to destroy them.

WHITEFIELD." Of all this, connected with that prince of preachers. Shelter Island may be justly proud. Here, again, Newtown, my former beloved charge, grasps hands with Shelter Island, as Newtown was likewise honored with the presence and preaching of this celebrated evangelist. There, like here, he preached in a neighboring grove, to an immense audience, that was deeply moved by his message. Among those who were then converted was a young man by the name of Peter Fish, who afterwards became pastor of that very church. Something akin to this was the conversion of Samuel L'Hommedieu, Esq., of Sag Harbor, when he was a young man, in connection with Whitefield's preaching on this island. He often spoke of this with delight, and also of his having assisted in making a raft that conveyed the evangelist with his horse and carriage from Southold to Shelter Island. Before leaving Mr. Thomas Bering it is worthy of note that his family claims to be one of the oldest, if not the oldest, Saxon family extant, whose history can be traced in a direct line back to Ethel- ward, King of Diera. Originally the Derings were powerful leaders or petty kings of Diera, in Saxony, whence one of them, a warrior, came to England, and settled first in Lydd, in Romney, Marsh, Kent. One of the more remote ancestors, Bering Miles, appears as a wit- ness to a deed by which King Ethelwuff conveyed certain lands to a church at Rochester, A. B. 880. The American branch of the Bering family came to this country through the person of Henry Bering, Esq., of Croscome, by Bumister, near Borchester, in Bor- setshire, England, who was born in August, 1639, and came to Boston, New England, about 1660. Among other possessions Mr. Bering owned a number of slaves, one of whom, by the name of Cato, was once caught in his wine cellar imbibing. Mr. Bering had him immediately brought before him for punishment, and, in order to make his punishment as effective as possible, both on the guilty one and the rest of the slaves, had them all summoned, with all the whites whom he had in 6o Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church his employ, in the large servants' kitchen. Among the other slaves was one named Comus, who was remarkable for his keenness of in- tellect as well as for his immense stature, he being six feet and six inches tall. While the sin and punishment of Cato was being dis- cussed, this giant of a slave rose up and asked permission to plead for Cato, and having received permission from his master, proceeded as follows: "Massa, you have pigs and you have corn, 'spose them pigs get in and eat some of that corn. The pigs are yours, and is not the corn yours just the same, if the pigs have eaten it? Now Cato is yours and the cider he drank was yours before, and is it not still yours after he has drank it? I do not see why Cato should be pun- ished." Mr. Bering rose and said: "Comus, thou reasoneth well. Cato, thou art discharged." Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 6 1 CHAPTER IV. Through the kindness of Mrs. William Rysam Sleight, of Sag Harbor, I am able to give an exact copy of the original census list of Shelter Island, taken in 177 1. It is an interesting and valuable addition to our work, showing the growth of the community since the organization of the Town in 1730. During these years the com- munity has doubled in population. Its complexion has remained about the same. A few of the names registered in 1730 have disap- peared and are not recorded in the list of 1771. These are Syl- vester, Hudson, Tuthill, Vail, Hopkins and Oilman. In their place appear Bering, Sawyer, Case, King, Duval and Horton. The name of Havens is still vastly in the majority, as at the organization of the Town. Some names on the list of 1771 are identical with those of 1730. These are William Nicoll, Daniel Brown, Thomas Conk- ling, Joel Bowditch, Abraham Parker, Jonathan Havens, George Havens and Joseph Havens. Only two of them, however, represent the same person, namely, Daniel Brown and Thomas Conkling. Forty years have now passed since the Town was fully organized, and with their passing have transported nearly all of the founders into eternity. The census Hst of 1776 is also here given, being copied out of one of the volumes of Colonial Documents. It shows a slight change in the personnel of this community from the list of 1771. To return once more to ecclesiastical matters. The first refer- ence to religious matters in the records of the Town occurs in the minutes of 1771, under the following resolution: "It is voted that Messrs. William Nicoll and Nicoll Havens, inspect the accounts of those that have the care of the moneys left by Brinley Sylvester, Esq., towards the support of the Gospel on this island, and to make report next Town meeting." As we have already seen, the Rev. Mr. Adams came to this island about 1737. He continued to reside here, with a short in- terregnum of two years, until the early part of the American Revo- lution, when he left with Mr. Dering, whose private chaplain he was, Mr. Dering feeling constrained for sake of safety to take refuge with his family within the American lines, and moved to Connecti- cut. The people on this island must then have enjoyed in some 62 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church WHITES. BLACKS. HEADS OF FAMILIES. 3 in ° jj u >8 « ° 0. 11 I.

With a meeting house erected by the citizens of the place; with a resident clergyman m the home of one, who likewise was called by the community to be its pastor; with a fund or legacy of five hundred dollars (a considerable sum in those days), the interest of which was to help in the sup- port of a regular orthodox Presbyterian minister; with the care and oversight of Long Island Presbytery, kindly bestowed in occa- sional supplies, of preachers in Presbyterial meetings and ordma- tion- with a community largely made up of Pilgrim and Puritan descendants, visited by renowned preachers and mighty evangelists, 64 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church and in constant touch with the religious communities of Southold, Easthampton, Bridgehampton and Southampton — it is more than probable that the people enjoyed the privileges of the gospel and the ordinances of God's house fully equal to their ability. No doubt the Revolutionary war led to the suspension of the outward means of grace, as it drove some of the inhabitants, among them the more prominent, into exile. And this brings us to a highly important period in the history of Shelter Island, the period of the Revolution. Some of the incidents that happened here have already been touched upon in the review of Mr. Thomas Bering's life. But only some. For there were other patriots here who played an important part in that mighty struggle. Indeed, Shelter Island was not behind any other place in its loyalty and devotion to the cause of liberty. Not only "not behind," but way ahead of many another community, as the paper here inserted fully proves. This paper, which is a pledge to support the Colonies in resisting British oppression, was cir- culated upon Shelter Island shortly after the battle of Lexington, which was the signal for war with Great Britain. It was signed with but one or perhaps two exceptions, by every man on Shelter Island. What a record is this! What a display of patriotism! Does it not lift the inhabitants of Shelter Island into the very front rank of noble citizens, ardent patriots and lovers of freedom? That paper is a crown of glory to Shelter Island that shall not fade away so long as history is true in its record and just in its meed of praise. Let the present and future generations of this place en- shrine it in undying affection, for what the Declaration of Inde- pendence is to the nation, this instrument is to Shelter Island namely, its Magna Charta. Besides Mr. Thomas Dering, who, as we have already seen, was a member of the Provincial Convention of New York that unani- mously adopted the Declaration of Independence, upon which the Convention assumed the title of "The Representatives of the State of New York," besides Mr. Dering, Shelter Island was repre- sented by Capt. James Havens, who kept a store in the house now occupied by his great grandson, Mr. Henry P. Havens, and known as Hearts-Ease." Still a third member was sent from here in the person of Capt. Daniel Brown, so that our little island furnished three members of the various Provisional Congresses that met in 1775 and 1776. I doubt whether another community in all Suffolk County did as much. As early as the summer of 1775, the British «Jtiv A General Af^ciation, agr|^ed to, and fubfcribed by the Freeholders and Inhabitants of the fi^B^ftg^ County of^^a^^iassk. 4^<^/a^ lERSUADED, that the Salvation of the Rights and Liberties of America, depends, under -^.XiJDidoa-'^ fif^ Union of its Inhabitants, in. a vigorous Profecution of the Meafures neeef- Tary for its Safety ; and convinced of the Neceffity of preventing the Anarchy and Confufion^ ^^ ^^_which attend a Djffoluiion of the Powersx)LGpvernnfieiit; We, the Bt^n^gt, Freeholders, and ■^5^ Inhatilants, of tcS C it y and County of JiS^f^lm^, being greatly alarmed at thi-TtvowTd=-E>e§|Jg^ ""°^*=tte5 Miniftry, to ra'ife a Revenue in America ; and, fhocked, by the bloody Scene, now afling m. the WalTachufetts ©ay, D O, in the mofl folemn Manner refolve, never to become Slaves ; and do affociate under all the Ties of Religion, Honour, and Love to our Country, 1o sHopt and endeavour to carry into Execytion, whatever Meafures ma^, be recommended by the Contiljntal Congrefs; ot^ahj^^ •■ refolved upon by our Provincial Convention, fcSithe Purpofe of preferving oi|r Conftitution, and ' oppofmg the Execution of the feveral arbitrary, and oppreffive Afts of the Sriti|h Parliament; __^>~»«aiUj.3jsfaancaL-UiouJi£tjjg£nGreaj^ri X^''^'<^h M"* jBofl ardentljLfltlr^^an uc -c^nej-r ^n '^^^^^^'Z^;^^. ^^ ~==rr..((,!lf;k^^ t:': :^# ^ V? ^ w c sn^r^ss Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 65 navy appeared in these waters, prowling around this island, to the number of thirteen ships of war, and during the progress of the war as many as twenty-one vessels lay at one time in Gardiner's Bay. That body of water became the rendezvous of the enemy's ships of war. The names of some of the vessels were as follows: The London, 120 guns; Grand Duke, 120 guns; Royal Oak, 100 guns; Bedford, 100 guns; Centurion, 80 Guns; Robust, 74 guns; Royal George, 74 guns, and the Culloden, 74 guns. Upon the disastrous result of the battle of Long Island to the American side, in August, 1776, the British took possession of the whole of Long Island, with its adjacent islands, and continued their sway of martial law throughout the war from 1776 to 1783. During these years the inhabitants of Shelter Island suffered terribly for their loyalty to the cause of the Colonists. The officers of the enemy's vessels anchored in these waters would come ashore and compel the inhabitants to provide whatever they demanded. They forced every one at the point of the bayonet to swear allegiance to the king. Nothing was safe from the hands of the enemy, and not only from the enemy, but from some of their neighbors who were Tories. Thompson in his history tells us that "the Tory inhabitants, whether natives or refugees (by which he means those who sympa- thized with the British) that the Tory inhabitants were the constant dread of those on the other side, who had anything to lose, or who had by their patriotism rendered themselves obnoxious to their despicable malice. Even the more inoffensive, who remained at home with their suffering families, were often harassed, and per- petually exposed to the predatory disposition of the worst men, and could hardly be said to have anything which they could call their own. In some instances the lives of peaceable citizens were sacrificed in the most unprovoked and wanton manner, disgraceful even to barbarians, because they would not discover their money and other valuables to the robbers. The property of those who had fled from their homes, and especially those engaged in the American service, was particularly the object of rapine, and in many instances the damages were immense. Woods and fences were lavishly used for fuel, and in any other way which served the purposes of those stationed in the neighborhood as well as for the garrisons of Brooklyn and New York." During this time the administration of justice, according to 66 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church historian Woods, was suspended and the British army became a sanctuary for crimes and robbery, the grossest offences being atoned for by enhstment therein. Those who had served in any wise in the cause of Hberty had to fly into the American Hnes for safety, while those who remained at home were harassed and plun- dered of their property, the inhabitants of Suffolk County being perpetually exposed to the grossest insult and abuse. They had no property of a movable kind that they could, properly speaking, call their own; they were oftentimes deprived of the stock neces- sary to the management of their farms, and were deterred from en- deavoring to produce more than a bare subsistence by the appre- hension that a surplus would be wrested from them either by the military authority of the purveyor or the ruffian hand of the plun- derer. The officers seized and occupied the best rooms in the houses of the inhabitants; they compelled them to furnish blankets and fuel for the soldiers, and ihay and grain for their horses; they took away their cattle, sheep,' hogs and poultry, and seized without ceremony and without any compensation whatever they desired to gratify their wants and wishes." But these pecuniary losses were not the sorest trials that the in- habitants of Long Island endured under the tyranny of their op- pressors. Besides these violations of the rights of person and property, the British officers did many acts of barbarity, for which there could be no apology. They made garrisons, storehouses or stables of the houses of public worship in several towns, and par- ticularly of suoh as belonged to the Presbyterians. Among the Presbyterian churches that were thus pillaged was the one of New- town, from which "they actually sawed off the steeple in derision, smashed its pews, tore off its siding and turned the sacred place into a prison, guard house, hospital and stable, and as a parting indignity demolished the whole." The Presbyterian church of Islip was literally carried off by piecemeal to Jamaica to be used as barracks for the British soldiers. The church at Southold, our next of kin ecclesiastically, and the mother of this church, had no services in it during the whole eight years of the war. Its pastor, the Rev. John Storrs, went into the army as chaplain. Our Presbytery, the Presbytery of Long Island, could not gather during this time of trial, persecution and blood. One of its members, the Rev. Joshua Hart, languished for two years in the awful prison ships of the enemy anchored in the Wallabout Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 67 of Brooklyn. All persons of importance in this region were driven into exile, only slaves and servants remained. Not even the farms could be tilled. From all this you can imagine the hardships that the people of this island had to endure during these eventful years. As a sample of what they had to endure, I give you this extract bearing date of Sept. 15th, 1781: "On the evening of the 15th the British ransacked the house of Nicoll Havens on Shelter Island, took two fowling pieces, a silver hilted sword, a silver mounted hanger, some tea, &€. At Capt. James Havens' they took a watch, coat, fowhng piece, &c. Then they went to widow Payne's, in- sulted the inmates of the house and threatened to burn it, made them produce a silver tankard, linen, a watch, a coat, and a fowling piece, &c." No wonder that at the close of the war, as the enemy's fleet departed, the people of this place assembled on the hills at Prospect and held a jubilee over their departure. One of the enemy's vessels, the Culloden, ran ashore on the east point of Fort Pond and became a total loss, the accident resulting from a blind- ing snowstorm that set in just as the squadron was rounding Gardi- ner's Point. Because of this, that point is designated as "Culloden's Point" on all charts to this day. Dr. Woodworth, in his dedicatory sermon preached upon the dedication of the present church building, in 1817, speaking of this period, said: "The calamities and disastrous connections of the Revolutionary war were here experienced in great weight. The destruction of property, though great, was by no means the worst evil. The demoralizing effects were much more to be deplored. The public means of grace were suspended; the Sabbath of the Lord profaned, and that sense of God and the claims of serious religion, which rested but too lightly on the public mind, now seemed to be wholly erased. Vice in its various forms prevailed and failed not to produce its legitimate effects." Such in part were the vicissitudes of this people. But it was not in vain. The cause for which it had all been born, was not only worthy of it, but had gloriously triumphed. At the close of the war the Legislature of New York passed on April 6th, 1784,' a law governing the incorporation of religious societies, by the selection of a Board of Tru .tees, who should have charge of the temporalities and discharge such other duties as are therein stated. On that same day Shelter Island held its Town meeting, the first one after the war, and after selecting its officers. 68 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church appointed a committee, consisting of Sylvester Bering and Jona- than N. Havens, to "inquire into and take charge of the monnies left by Brinley Sylvester, Esq., toward the support of the Gospel on Shelter Island and make report thereof to the Inhabitants of the Island." The next year a special meeting was called of the in- habitants of the Society of Shelter Island for the 26th of April, when the Church Society was duly organized, as the following record will show: "These are to certify that a meeting of the Inhabitants of the Society of Shelter Island, held on the 26th day of April, 1785, legally named agreeable to a Law of this State to Enable all Religious De- nominations to choose Trustees to take charge of their Temporali- ties, by the name and stile of Trustees of the Freeholders and In- habitants of the Township of Shelter Island, the following Persons were chosen Trustees: Jonathan N.

One of them was the Supervisor of the Town; I refer to Jonathan N. Havens, a great-grandson of the first George Havens and a man of note ; perhaps the greatest man native to this soil. He was the son of Nicoll Havens and Sarah Fosdick, his first wife, while Nicoll Havens was the son of Jonathan Havens and Catherine Nicoll. The subject of this sketch, Jonathan Nicoll Havens, thus bore the given name of his father and grandfather. He was born on the i8th of June, 1757. In 1773 he entered Yale College, at the age of sixteen, and graduated with honor in 1777. While in College he was president of the Linonian Society, from which it may be inferred that he was not inattentive to the uses of public speaking and composition. After graduating he returned to JO Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church his home on this island, where he became partly engaged in agri- cultural pursuits. His principal occupation, however, was of a lit- erary kind, the pursuit of the higher branches of learning. Several years were thus passed in retirement, seclusion and study. So en- grossed was he at times in thought that he was unconscious of per- sons or things about him, as the following incident will show. A certain Major Jessup, of Southampton, a personal friend of Mr. Jonathan Nicoll Havens, while on a visit to Shelter Island one day, made a call on Mr. Havens, who saluted him as he entered the house, but immediately returned to his studies, forgetting altogether of his visitor, who after staying a long time departed without notice. On the day after he called again, in company with Mr. Sylvester Bering, and in conversation related the circumstance of his call on the day previous, upon which Mr. Havens assured him that he had felt unaware of his visit, so deeply had he been absorbed by the sub- ject of his inquiry. Upon the death of his father, also a man of great prominence and highly esteemed, Jonathan N. Havens was chosen Clerk of the Town. This ofifice his father had held from 1759, except during the period of the Revolution, to the time of his death, in 1783. His father also, with the office of Town Clerk, held the office of Supervisor for seven years before the beginning of the war, and at its close in the spring of the year in which he died, was again elected to both offices. Now the son, at a special meeting held Dec. 4th, 1783, is chosen to succeed his father as Town Clerk, and with this office begins a public career which gained for him a great name in the annals of his country. He continued to serve as Town Clerk until 1787, when he was chosen Supervisor, which office he discharged until 1793. In the meantime his ability had been spread abroad, so that in 1786 he was elected an Assemblyman from Suffolk County, to which office he was re-elected for ten con- secutive years. In this body he became distinguished for his in- tegrity and ability as a statesman. Among other important posi- tions he was chairman of the committee which originated the law es- tablishing public schools in the State of New York. Then, too, he was a member of the State Convention which met at Poughkeepsie on June 17, 1788, and adopted the Constitution of the United States. He was also elected a Justice of the Peace of the County of Suf- folk in 1795. After his ten years of service in the Assembly of the State, he was chosen a United States Representative, being elected a member of the Fourth Congress, in which body he served until Slielter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 71 his death, in 1799, at the early age of 42. His death was a great shock to the community and to all who knew him. Thompson says: "He was not only a man of extraordinary abilities, but was distin- guished likewise for industry and promptitude in everything which he undertook. The death of such a man at the age of 40 years (it should be 42) could not be otherwise felt than a subject of general regret with all who knew his worth." He was buried in the South churchyard, and over his remains was raised a tablet that bears this high eulogy: "Erected to the memory of Jonathan Nicoll Havens, Esq., Representative in the Congress of the United States. He was esteemed by a numerous acquaintance as a man of superior talent aud erudition, a philosopher, statesman and patriot, and died greatly lamented Oct. 25th, 1799, in the 42 yr. of his age." As Shelter Island can with pride point to her first supervisor, the Hon. William Nicoll, so can this religious corporation point with equal satisfaction to her first selected Trustee, the Hon. Jonathan Nicoll Havens. Mr. Havens belonged to a distinguished family. One of his sisters, Esther Sarah Havens, married General Sylvester Bering, the second trustee, of whom we shall have occasion to speak later. Another sister, Mary Catherine, married the Hon. Ezra L'Hommedieu, also a noted statesman for more than thirty years, born in Southold, and considered by Dr. Epher Whitaker "the foremost of all the men who have lived all their life from birth to death in that noted town," A brother of Jonathan Nicoll Havens, named Rensselaer Havens, became a distinguished merchant, finan- cier and patriot in New York City. He, with another gentleman, fitted out a vessel and presented it to the government during the war of 1812. While in Yale College Mr. Jonathan Nicoll Havens wrote the following letter, which is here given because of its interest in many ways, among them the parental respect it displays, the inconvenience of travel in those days, the use of the pillow case, etc., etc. "New Haven, March 29th, 1774. "Honored Sir: "I take this opportunity by Mr. Hathoway to write you a few^ lines. By Cpt. Moses Sawyer, who came with him, I understand you are troubled with boils, for which am sorry, but am glad to hear the rest of the family are all well. I have not heard from you since my last, which I sent by Uncle Mumford when he was hear upon the 72 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church Assembly, which I suppose you have received afore this time. As the spring vacancy draws nigh, I begin to think of coming home, and I believe I shall want to bring home a pretty large bundle, as a good many of my shirts begin to wear out and some of my stock- ings, together with these I designed to have brought home, my cloath for a coat and some of my books which I make no use of, which I fear I shall not be able to perform, as having nothing but a pillow case which I was put to great difficulty with when I went home last, unless I had a pair of saddle-bags or some other con- veniency, or could get a passage directly home in some boat, tho' I have not heard from you, whether you designed to send a boat on purpose. I should be glad to hear whether it is worth while to bring all the things home which I have mentioned or in what man- ner I shall act, and I remain with love to all, your loving and dutiful son, "JONATH. N'LL. HAVENS." The third trustee of the original board, Mr. William Bowditch, was born on this island about the year of 1751. He was the son of Joel Bowditch and Bethiah Case. His father was one of the twenty men who founded the Town in 1730. Mr. Bowditch at the time of his selection as Trustee was Over- seer of the Poor. He continued to serve the Town in various offices until 1794, when he was chosen Supervisor, which office he held for twenty years. Thus from 1784 to the time of his death, in 1820, he served the Town in almost every capacity, a period of thirty-six years. While as trustee he served this society from its incorpora- tion, 1785, with the exception of three years, likewise until his death, a period of thirty-two years. He is best remembered as Squire Bowditch, and is considered by some to have been the moving spirit in the building of the present sanctuary. That Board of Trustees has continued in existence down to the present time, and as it is characteristic of such Boards to continue in existence as long as the corporation which they represent con- tinues to exist, and further, as this corporation gives every evidence of unending life, it is fair to assume that the Board will continue to exist until the end of time. Besides this, as the Rev. Mr. Harries said in his historical discourse, we may properly date the origin of this congregation from the time of the completion of the first meeting house, namely, in 1743. So that this assembly has existed Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 7^ by regular succession one hunderd and fifty-five years. You will notice that we are thus speaking of the existence of the religious assembly or congregation on this island, not the church, for as yet we have not reached the time when God in His Grace gathered together a body in which to dwell a sanctuary "made up of living stones." At this date it is said there still lived quite a large number of Indians on the island. This conflicts somewhat with a previous statement that upon the purchase of the island from the Indians the latter left the island. Perhaps not all, but only a portion. How- ever, what is here said is substantiated by good and sufficient evi- dence. The huts and wigwams of these remaining Indians formed quite a village on Sachem's Neck. In 1790 more than half of these were destroyed through fire, which broke out in one of them one morning, and spread to the rest, as they were pitched so near to- gether. Some of the aborigines are remembered by those living and present with us at this time. The last of this race became the subject of a remarkable conversion, under the early ministry of the Rev. Daniel M. Lord, who speaks of her in particular in one of his sermons as follows: "Of the fruits of this precious refreshing from the presence of the Lord twelve were gathered into the church at one communion season. Among these was one, the last of the aborigines who was born on Shelter Island. She had lived in ignorance and in the detriment of sin, without God and wdthout hope in the world. More than fourscore years had made its deep furroughs on her brow. She had often sold herself to letchery and rum. It may be said for many, many years that no one cared for her soul. But God's time came, when all her race had been laid in the grave, and all those whom she had known in her youth were beneath the clods of the valley, then it was that God's word was spirit and hfe. "The small amount of truth which she had heard, for she could not read in all her lifetime, had a resurrection. She was created anew in Christ Jesus unto good works, that she might walk in them. There are those present to-day (1856) who remember the bowed form but robust frame of Betty Tobs Caeser. They remember also the change that came over her. How she adjured the intoxicating cup and forsook her wicked ways and unrighteous thoughts and returned unto the Lord, who had mercy and abundantly pardoned. They saw the change and admired the grace that kindled in her heart 74 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church the flame of love to God and to man. Not this alone, there are some still lingering on these mortal shores who have listened to her voice in prayer and have been constrained to feel that her lips were touched with hallowed fire. Nor can they forget the scene of the last conflict of the dying Indian saint as visions of unutterable glory burst upon her sight. Each who witnessed that closing scene felt for the Christian to die is gain. Twenty-one years are past and yet the vision of that hour stands out before me as the sun of yesterday. Oh! death where is thy sting. Oh! grave where is thy victory. Thanks be to God who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ." In looking over the first inventory of this religious corporation we notice that no real estate is mentioned, though it is well known that a church building existed on this island. We are led to ask, therefore, to whom did that building belong? It belonged to cer- tain freeholders on this island who were instrumental in its erection. All its pews were under the control of certain families, who pos- sessed the sole and exclusive right to the same. In 1806 the parish sought to increase the seating capacity of the original building, and so they passed the following resolution : "Voted that the Pews occu- pied by Benjamin Nicoll, William Bowditch, Sylvester Dering, and James Havens, be made narrower so as to make room for a Pew in front of James Havenses pew and the next seat and another in front of William Bowditches Pew and the next seat, and that the Pews of Benjamin Nicoll, William Bowditch and Sylvester Dering, and James Havens be moved back at the expense of the Parish, to be paid by the Trustees out of the Public monies in their hands, that any person wishing to build a pew in either of these places, left for the purpose, may do it, by application to the Trustees on the following conditions, to wit, that they build the pews at their ex- pense, keeping an exact account thereof, to be delivered to the Trustees, and that they, their heirs and assigns have use, &c., and oc- cupy those pews untill called for by the Parish, when Parish shall pay the person who built them, their Heirs and Assigns, the price the Pews cost, after which they shall deliver them to the society." In 1808 the Parish sought to get control of all the pews, as the fol- lowing minutes of that date will show: "Voted that the Trustees con- sult the owners of Pews in the Meeting House, and know of them if they will sell them, and at what price, and if all the owners of Pews will sell, to call a Parish meeting that the Parish may determine to Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 75 purchase them or not." The purchase was never effected; and the whole system of ownership continued until the original building passed out of use because of decay. Looking once more at that inventory, we see that the amount of personal property is given as £166 14s. 7^d., or about $830. This shows that the legacy of Brinley Sylvester, amounting to £100, given in 1752, had increased to one and two-thirds of the original amount. It continued to grow so that the Trustees in the next inventory of 1793 reported it as about amounting to £188, or $940. The Society was thus in position to secure the preached Word, and did so by ap- plying to the Presbytery of Long Island at its spring meeting, held at Southampton Apr. 21, 1789. The following item is to be found in the minutes of that date : "Mr. John Taylor, a candidate for the min- istry from Connecticut, was appointed to preach at Sag Harbor and Shelter Island, they applying for supplies." About this time Mr. Stephen Burroughs, author of "Memoirs of Stephen Burroughs," was engaged to teach school in this place. He speaks at some length in his "Memoirs" of his labors here as a school teacher, and mentions a number of citizens of that date with whom he lived and mingled. Under date of Oct. ist, 1795, we have the first reference in our Town records to the slaves that were on this island. According to the second census list there were thirty-three slaves on Shelter Island in 1776. These were owned as follows: five by Mr. Thomas Bering, fourteen by Mr. Nicoll Havens, two by Mr. Daniel Brown, ten by Mr. William Nicoll, and two by Mr. Obadiah Havens. Twenty-one of these were male and the balance were female negroes. At the close of the Revolution the chief principle in the bringing about of which was "that all men are created equal and that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness," measures were taken to abolish the custom of slavery which had existed among the various colonies from their very inception. On Feb- ruary 22, 1788, the Legislature of New York passed an act for the manumitting of slaves within the Empire State. According to this act, slaves under the age of fifty years who were physically able to support themselves and thus not liable to become a charge upon the Town, could be given their freedom by their owners upon appli- cation to the overseers of the poor and justices of the peace of the county, subject to their approval. In accordance with this mea~ 76 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church sure, on October i, 1795, Mr. Sylvester Bering, Mr. Henry Bering and Mr. Nathaniel Gardiner applied for the privilege of manu- mitting a negro woman slave called "Matilda," of which they were the owners. These gentlemen being sons and son-in-law of Mr. Thomas Bering, deceased, had by inheritance come into posses- sion of this slave, and now desired to give her her freedom. The privilege was granted, and Matilda was, according to the Town records, the first slave to gain her freedom on Shelter Island. In 1799 Rensselaer Havens sought the same privilege for one of his slaves, named "Bick," which was granted. The same year Samuel B, Nicoll released three of his slaves, who were father, mother and child, named respectively. Cade, Elizabeth and Armenie. In 1801 Besire Havens released a negro woman called "Fide." In 1806 Sylvester Bering did the same for one called "Violet," while in 1821 his widow released a slave called "London." Under date of June i. 1804, Sylvester Bering makes affidavit to the birth of "Achilles, a male negro child born of a slave" belonging to him, and born the loth day of February, 1804. These comprise all the references to- ward slaves and slavery as it existed on Shelter Island to be found in our Town records. In 1794 it was voted "That one years Interest of the monies belonging to the Freeholders and Inhabitants of this Town for the support of the Gospel be appropriated by the Trustees for that pur- pose: and paid into the hands of Benjamin Nicoll, James Havens and Sylvester Bering, who are hereby appointed our Committee to procure a Person to Preach the Gospel in this place and to pay the same as they may agree, not exceeding the rate of four dollars for each Sabbath." The same year we find this curious entry in the Town records: "At a Special Town Meeting (held April 29th, 1794) called for the purpose of regulating the clam fishery, it was resolved that a tax of three pence, for every bushel of clams dug by non- inhabitants of the island, the proceeds of which save 20% was to be paid into the hands of the Religious Society for the purpose of sup- porting the gospel or maintaining a school on the said island as the freeholders and inhabitants of said island shall at their annual Town Meetings direct." The way they, however, disposed of this tax was to repeal it the next year; at the same time directing what revenue had been received from it should be placed in the hands of a School Committee consisting of William Bowditch and Ezekial Havens, to be disposed of by them for school purposes.

WHITEFIELD COWLES AND THE Fly-Leaf of his Manuscript Sermon Preached in the Original Meeting House ON Shelter Island, N. Y., Sunday, August 21, 1798 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 'jy lution passed by the society this year voting the interest of the monies in the hands of the Trustees to the securing of a preacher was repeated in 1795 and 1796. From the treasurer's accounts we learn that in response to these resolutions the Rev. Whitfield Cowles preached on four Sabbaths in 1796, for which he received £4; and in 1797 the Rev. Jacob Cram preached one Sabbath, for which he was paid £1 4s. In 1798 the Rev. Whitfield Cowles preached again for the society twenty-four Sabbaths, for which he received £9 12s. The Rev. Jacob Cram was the son of Jonathan Cram, of Hampton Falls, N. H., born Oct. 12, 1762, a graduate of Dartmouth College, in 1782. After preaching here he became the pastor of the church in Orient. He died in Exeter, N. H., Dec. 21, 1833. The Rev. Whitfield Cowles was the son of Capt. Josiah Cowles, of Southington, Conn., born June 3, 1764. He graduated from Yale College in 1788, and in 1793 re- ceived the degree of A. M. The next year, 1794, he was ordained at East Granby, Conn. The same year he married one of Shelter Island's fair daughters. Miss Gloriana Havens. She died in 1802. The following year he married again, choosing for his second wife Miss Desire Brown, also of Shelter Island. Mr. Cowles' picture is given on the next page, together with a fac-simile of the fly leaf of one of his sermons preached in the meeting house on Shelter Island, Aug. 2 1st, 1798. Besides the clergymen already mentioned there were others who are known to have occasionally preached here, among them being the Rev. Dr. Buell, pastor of the Easthampton Presbyterian Church from 1746 to 1798. In 1799 and 1800 Mr. John Rudd taught school on this island. While here he boarded with Gen. Sylvester Dering, who became strongly attached to him. He was a young man of good promise, and after leaving this place he opened a school in New York City, where he gained the good will of Bishop Moore, who instructed him in divinity, after which he became an Episco- palian minister, subsequently receiving the degree of D. D. and be- coming the editor of a religious paper called the "Christian Mes- senger." The next year the Parish sought to gain a resident clergyman in the person of the Rev. Herman Daggett as preacher and teacher. Mr. Daggett had labored at Southampton for a num- ber of years, leaving there in 1797 and going to Westhampton, where he labored until 1801. The action of the parish in seeking to gain the services of Mr. Daggett was the following: "Voted that the 78 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church Trustees be requested to make application to the Rev. Herman Dag- gett to come and reside with us as a preacher of the Gospel and a Teacher of our school for the term of ten years. Voted that we will give the Rev. Herman Daggett for Preaching to us on the Sabbath, and for Teaching our school during the time before mentioned, Three Hundred and fifty Dollars per anniuu, to be raised in the fol- lowing manner: "The Trustees annually to open a Subscription and present it to all the Inhabitants to sign what they will give for preaching each Sabbath for one year or during their residence on Shelter Island, the money raised by this Subscription together with the Annual In- terest of our Public monies to be appropriated as far they will go towards the payment of Two Hundred Dollars of the before men- tioned Salary — and in case the Subscription for the support of the Gospel and the Interest of the Public monies does not amount to the sum of two Hundred Dollars, it shall then be lawfull for the Trustees and they are hereby authorized and required to make up the deficiency out of any monies in their hands belonging to the Freeholders and Inhabitants of Shelter Island and given for the support of the Gospel — leaving the remaining part of the salary, viz., one hundred and Fifty Dollars to be raised by the Proprietors of the School — a true record of the votes. (Seal) "SYLVESTER DERING, Clk." About the same time Mr. Daggett received this call or proposi- tion, he also received a call from the church at Middletown, now known as Middle Island, whither he went and was installed Oct. 20th, 1 80 1. There he remained until 1807 or 9, when he removed to Connecticut. Dr. Prime in his history speaks of him in the highest terms as "a man of sterling talents, respectable acquirements and peculiar excellence of character." What the parish did upon failing in their efforts to bring the Rev. Herman Daggett in their midst we cannot tell. In 1804 they made apphcation again to the Presbytery of Long Island, with this result: "Supplies were requested for Shel- ter Island, and Messrs. Lyman Beecher, Joseph Hazzard, Daniel Hall and Zachariah Green were appointed for the purpose. Mr. Foster also offering to supply, it was agreed that he should take one Sabbath on Shelter Island." These men doubtless discharged their appointment. Among them are the names of two men who have left behind them an illustrious record, one, the Rev. Dr. Lyman Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church yg Beecher, as an able theologian and the father of a family noted for great preachers, among them the world-wide famous Henry Ward Beecher; the other, Zachariah Green, who is best known as an in- tense patriot during the Revolutionary War, though at the time of its commencement but sixteen years of age. Of another of these brethren, Daniel Hall, I shall have much to say presently. The fol- lowing year, or 1805, the parish passed a resolution inviting the Rev. Benjamin Bell to preach to the inhabitants for one year, he to re- ceive for his services three dollars per Sabbath. Mr. Bell responded to this call and preached for the society, as is seen from the treas- urer's accounts. At the same meeting in which the parish invited the Rev. Mr. Bell, it was voted that "the Trustees repair the meeting house and pay for the same out of the Public monies in their hands for Religious purposes." That this was done the following entry will show: "To cash paid the Bills for shingling the Porch and repairing the Meeting House, £31.0.22." Another preacher who served during one Sabbath was the Rev. Mr. Boge. About this time the Rev. Dr. Timothy Dwight, President of Yale College, made a visit to this island during one of his vacation trips through Long Island. His experiences, observations and impres- sions of these various journeys he fully describes in a series of vol- umes entitled "Travels in New England and New York." In one of these letters Dr. Dwight speaks very fully of his visit to Shelter Island. In those days the ferry ran from Stern's Point to the nar- row neck of land just opposite on the northern arm of Long Island. The ferry was known as "Bushe's Ferry," so called because the owner's name was "Boisseau," which was pronounced "Busche." Not having the patronage in those days that the ferry enjoys now ac- counts for the poor or meagre accommodations that Dr. Dwight found, for he says : "We found the ferry had neither wharf nor ferry stairs on either side. The shore was a gradual slope. We were therefore obliged to ride to the boat, and with much difficulty to force our horses into it by leading them over the gunwhale." Of the island itself, after describing its formation, soil products, etc., he says : "To the credit of the inhabitants, especially of the prin- cipal proprietors, it ought to be observed that they have customarily made considerable exertions to support schools and obtain the preaching of the gospel." In 1806 the Rev. Daniel Hall, of Sag Harbor, where he had been pastor of the Presbyterian church for eight years, was asked to 8o Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church become the minister of the parish, according to the following record: "At a Parish Meeting held on Shelter Island at the Meeting House on the 5th of May, 1806, to consult about engaging the Reverend Daniel Hall to preach to us the ensuing year; and after examining the subscription for his support, Voted that the Trustees of the Free- holders and Inhabitants of Shelter Island invite the Rev'd Daniel Hall to preach to us for one year, and that they make the deficiency of the subscription up to three Dollars a Sabbath out of the Parish Monies." As that subscription list is in existence, and is of im- portance in many ways, I give it here as follows: Subscription Received for Mr. Hall, 1806. £ s.

Mr. Hall had just been released from his pastoral duties at Sag Harbor by the Presbytery upon his own request. He was the first settled pastor of that church, beginning his labors there in 1797 and continuing there until his removal to Shelter Island in 1806. Here he remained and served until his death in 1812. Mr. Hall has left an undying record behind him in the organization of this church, which he effected in 1808. In two years after his com- ing the condition of spiritual things had so far advanced as to make the organization of a church possible by the adoption, on Sept. 28th, 1808, of the following Confession of Faith and Church Covenant: Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 8i "Whereas it hath pleased God to favour us with the pubHc ad- ministrations of his word, and considering the obhgations that all are under, who have hope in the mercy of God through our Lord Jesus Christ, and desirous of the advancement and prosperity of his King- dom, have severally agreed to the following articles of Faith and Covenant conformable to the order and discipline of the Presby- terian Church as established in the United States: ARTICLES OF FAITH. "We do profess and solemnly believe that there is only one living and true God subsisting in three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. "That the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments is the Word of God, and the only infallible rule of Faith and practice. "That the original state of mankind was that of purity and hap- piness; but through the disobedience of the first Adam, his whole posterity are fallen into a state of sin and misery, exposed to all the evils of the present state, and condemnation of the future. "That God of his abundant mercy hath sent his Son to redeem and save that which was lost, and that all who truly believe in him are justified, saved and accepted of God, and continuing in the faith will have an open entrance into his Heavenly Kingdom. "That God hath appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness, by that man whom he hath ordained to be the Judge of quick and dead, that then the Lord Jesus Christ will admit the Righteous to the full enjoyment of his Heavenly King- dom, and will sentence the wicked to everlasting punishment. THE COVENANT. "We do now as we humbly hope in divine mercy avouch the Lord to be our God, trusting alone for acceptance through the mediation of his dear Son, promising as God may enable us to walk in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord, to have our hearts united to the people of God, to love and treat them as breth- ren, and in common with ourselves as members of the mistical body of Christ. "We promise to submit ourselves to the government of tlie Church of Christ, and to this Church in particular, to walk towards 82 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church each other in the fellowship of the Gospel and to seek in all things its spiritual peace and prosperity, so long as God in his providence shall continue our relation with them." The following persons appeared, and after having heard the fore- going Articles of Faith and Covenant read, assented to them and requested their names inserted, viz.: Rev. Daniel Hall, Pastor. Lucretia Hall, his wife. Ephraim King. Mehitable King, his wife. Sylvester Bering and his wife E. Sarah Bering. Jonathan Boughlass and his wife Abigail Boughlass. Mary Mayo. Eunice Case. Anna Boisseau. Elizabeth Havens. Abigail Sawyer. Lodowick Havens. Esther Case. To this body of believers the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper was administered by Mr. Hall on Sunday, October i6th, 1808. Though Congregational in form, it strongly leaned towards the Presbyterian fold from the very beginning, the preamble of its Con- fession mentioning that body as its model. Mr. Hall continued his connection with the Presbytery of Long Island until his death. That Presbytery had now for many years exercised a kindly over- sight over the religious affairs of this island. As early as 1747 it had met by the good will of the inhabitants on this island by com- mission. Again, in 1766, when it ordained the Rev. Elam Potter. It was repeatedly petitioned by the people of Shelter Island to appoint preachers to this place, which requests it cordially complied with, as has already been seen, and now in less than two years after the organization of the Church Presbytery holds its spring meeting upon Shelter Island under date of April i8th, 1810. The opening sermon of that session of Presbytery was preached by the Rev. Jonathan Huntting, at that time pastor of the church ,at Southold, Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 83 and who was destined twenty years later to be the Stated Supply for a period of years to this very church. Rev. Mr. Hall continued his labors here with marked success until his death, which occurred Jan. 20, 18 1 2, from tetanus, caused by the amputation of a can- cerous foot. Dr. Prime, who was his successor in the pastorate of the Sag Harbor Presbyterian Church, speaks of him as having been a "remarkably affectionate preacher; a son of consolation rather than a Boanerges." His remains were buried in our south church-yard, and over his grave was raised a tablet bearing this inscription : "Sacred to the Memory of Rev. Daniel Hall, Who died Jan. 20, 181 2. Ae 64. "In all the various relations of life he lived like a Christian. As a husband and parent he was tender and affectionate. As a neighbor and friend, he was kind and benevolent. As a citizen he was truly patriotic, and as a minister of Jesus, he was faithful unto death." Mr. Hall was born in New London, Conn., Sept. 19th, 1747. He was the son of Jonathan and Alice Hall. He left a widow, two sons, John and William, and three daughters, Sophronia, Lucretia and Mary, Sophronia married Charles Doughlass, of Sag Harbor, and Lu- cretia married Capt. David Brown, of the same place. This doubt- less led to Mrs. Hall's removal to Sag Harbor, where she died on Sept. 4th, 1825, aged 76, her remains being brought to this island for interment alongside those of her 'husband, where they now lie with a host of others awaiting the resurrection morn. All of the original members of this church have long since passed to their re- ward. The first person of that band of fifteen to be called away was Mrs. Mehitable King, wife of Ephraim King, who died in less than four months after the organization, namely, Feb. 2d, 1809, aged 73 years. The husband died July 8th, 1820. Their bodies were at first buried in the south church-yard, but afterwards removed to Sag Harbor. The year following the organization of this church steps were taken at a special meeting of the parish, held the 6th of June, 1809, to procure a new meeting house, the trustees being then directed to pass a subscription paper among the people, with the condition 84 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church that their subscriptions would not be binding unless at least one thousand dollars were subscribed. This effort, however, did not succeed. Perhaps because once more the national skies were grow- ing dark by the appearance of a war cloud which did burst in storm upon the people, and once more Shelter Island became the butt of the enemy's abuse and destruction. For like in the war of the Revo- lution, another fleet of British warships made Gardiner's Bay their anchorage and headquarters. Among them were the Ramesis, Maidstone, Sylph Thunderer, Pantagenet and the brig Boxer. These blockaded the whole eastern coast, from Fisher's Island to Montauk, and sought to destroy the neighboring villages, sending off their barges by night and by day. Under the cover of darkness they made an assault upon Sag Harbor, setting fire to its wharfs, but were driven off by the soldiers stationed there, among whom were a number of men recruited from this island. The national forces sought to blow up the flagship of this squadron, which was the Ramesis, by the use of a torpedo sent down the sound from New York. The effort, however, failed, from the torpedo getting ashore a little to the northwest of Greenport. One of the British ships, the Sylph, was sent out to destroy it, and did so, after which it cruised around the eastern end of Long Island. While running around Montauk Point on Jan. 17th, 181 5, she went ashore on the south side of Long Island and became a total wreck. Out of her crew of one hundred and twenty-one men only six were saved. Among the lost were the following officers: Captain George Dick- ens, commanding olftcer; Lieutenant George Butt, Lieutenant H. S. Marsham, Mr, James Still, surgeon; Mr. Thomas Atwell, master. Indirectly that torpedo did its work. The man who brought it down the Sound was named "Penny." He lived at Northwest in a lonely place. The British found him out and one night took him prisoner. He was transported to Halifax, where he was held a prisoner until the end of the war. As in the Revolution so in the war of 181 2, the enemy would come ashore on this island, day or night, and confiscate cattle, sheep, and whatever else they wanted. It was another season of trial and suffering to our fair isle. One night the enemy went ashore on Gull Island and threw the lamps of the lighthouse into the sea. But they paid dearly for this act of vandalism, as one of their barges ran ashore on Plum Island, resulting in its loss, together with several of its crew. Their bodies were found shortly after by Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church gc others from the squadron and buried on the east side of that island Over the grave of one was set a marker, upon which was inscribed the following epitaph: "Safely at anchor here I lay With several of our fleet, And here will lie till I set sail My Admiral Christ to meet." Of course such wanton destruction of our beacon light had to be repaid in some way. So the Yankees bought an old square rigged vessel, and fixing a magazine in her hold, so connected that upon raising the hatches, it would explode, sailed her as near the fleet as they dared, and then under cover of darkness abandoned her. When the enemy noticed the vessel they put ofif in boats and brought her alongside of the fleet. Then a number of officers went aboard and started to raise the hatches, when the magazine ex- ploded with terrific force, blowing the men into the sea to their destruction and the vessel to the bottom of the waters. The British were so incensed that they sent their barges up the Connecticut the next night and burned every vessel that they found as far up as Deep River. Mr. Lodowick Havens, from whose personal record these facts have been culled, says the sound of that explosion was like an earthquake. The British sent an order ashore on this island for the people to immediately furnish a lot of provisions, but little heed at that time was given to it, as the people felt that the three com- panies of soldiers stationed at Sag Harbor were abundantly able to protect them. Every man, however, on the island, kept his gun and bayonet in the room where he slept, and carried it with him to meeting when there was one, which under such conditions was not often. When peace was again restored in 1814, the people once more assembled in jubilee, only this time instead of on Prospect Heights they met in the mansion of Gen. Sylvester Bering. It is not to be wondered at that in the presence of such a state of public affairs the attempt at procuring a new meeting house, set on foot in 1809, should have failed. The year following the restoration of peace, however, namely, 1815, the effort was renewed. Of this we shall speak later on. A little more than two months after Mr. Hall's death, in 1812, this church took steps towards being fully organized according to 86 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church Presbyterian polity, with the view of being received into the Pres- bytery of Long Island. "At a meeting of the congregation of Shel- ter Island on Friday, March 27th, 1812, being a day of fasting and prayer, voted (the subject having previously been under consider- tion a suitable time) 'that it is their wish and desire that the church should be regularly organized with officers upon Presbyterian prin- ciples, and become regularly connected with the Presbytery of Long Island.' They also proceeded to the choice of three Elders and two deacons, and General Sylvester Bering, Jonathan Dough- lass and Lodowick Havens were chosen Elders, and the two former Deacons. The above persons having declared their acceptance of this appointment were at the same time solemnly ordained accord- ing to the Directory." They were ordained by the Rev. Aaron Woolworth, D. D.. pastor of the Presbyterian Church of Bridgehampton, who by re- quest attended and presided on that occasion. Upon being duly elected and installed into their sacred office these elders the next day, March 28th, made application to the Presbytery of Long Island, on behalf of the church, "to be received into that body agree- able to the above resolution." Presbytery met that year at Huntington on April 9th, 181 2, when the application was received and acted upon as follows: "A communication from the Church at Shelter Island was received containing a request that they might be received into connection with the Presbytery. The Presbytery having ascertained that the proceedings of that church were regular, resolved to grant their request, and they are thereby accordingly received." And since that time down to the present, a period of eighty-six years, this church has maintained its relation with that great branch of the Christian Church with dignity and honor. Dr. Woolworth has left on record a personal account of Mr. Hall's ministry and the organization of this church, which is of such importance that it may well be added here : "Rev. Daniel Hall's min- istry, though short, was connected with salutary effects. The public worship was well attended and the moral state of society much im- proved. Nor were individual instances of conviction and hopeful conversion wanting. By Mr. Hall's exertion a church was first formed which had before been supposed that the number of pro- fessors was so small as to render such an attempt inefficient. This may be considered as the dawn of that brighter day which has since Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 87 opened upon you. The standard of the cross was now in manner and form erected, and the King of Zion sanctioned it, by many unequivocal tokens of his approbation which have followed. Some small additions were made to the church during Mr. Hall's minis- try, and the little band walking in fellowship of the gospel were edified. "His death, which took place in January, 1812, was considered as a severe rebuke of heaven, both by the church and congregation, by whom he was much esteemed and loved. This mournful event it is believed was sanctified and made the means of leading Chris- tians to a more feeling sense of their dependence upon God, and exciting them to greater steadfastness in prayer. In the following- spring the church was more completely organized by the choice and public consecration of elders, which from the smallness of its numbers had hitherto been delayed. Well, my brethren, do you and I remember the solemnities of that day. The sacrament of the Lord's Supper had just been administered, and after the ordination of the session they were publicly asked whether they would engage to maintain public worship on the Sabbath, when there should be no preaching, a thing which had never before been observed, to which under a deep and solemn sense of duty they consented on supposition that the people wished it. The proposal was made to the congregation, who by a unanimous vote expressed their desire of this arrangement and engaged to countenance and encourage it. Accordingly since that time the public worship has been uniformly kept up, and in general been well attended, and there is reason to believe the special blessing of God has accompanied it." And now we have reached the time when our beloved church became fully organized as a Presbyterian church and in organic relation with the Presbytery of Long Island and the great Presby- terian Church of the United States of America. Thus far our re- view has been largely devoted to the birth and life of this island as the charming abode of the white man. We have gone into its civil history with increased delight, and would find pleasure in pursuing it down to the present time. But that is not according to our purpose. That purpose is to trace out the record of Shelter Island down to the organization of this Society, and from that point to confine the record to the Presbyterian church. We have there- fore reached the time when ecclesiastical and civil matters becoming distinct from each other, we must bid the latter an affectionate 38 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church "good bye." We can say to the civil part of our research, that if we shall find the ecclesiastical as interesting, creditable, yea, glori- ous, we shall have lasting cause for thanksgiving to the Almighty, who shapes our ends, and in shaping them made those of the writer to run across this place, which when He formed He so lavishly beautified for the comfort, repose and rejuvenation of mankind. Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 89 CHAPTER V. We will begin the ecclesiastical part of these historical papers with the erection of the present church building. Upon the close of the second war with Great Britain, in 1814, the effort begun in 1809 to procure a new meeting house, and which had been inter- rupted by the war, was once more taken up by the circulation of the following subscription paper, with its accompanying result: "Shelter Island, September, 181 5. "Whereas the House of Public Worship on Shelter Island is too small comfortably to accommodate the Inhabitants, and so gone to decay as to render it very uncomfortable in wet and cold weather, and it being judged unfit to repair and enlarge, we the subscribers do agree to pay on demand the several sums affixed to our names, to the Trustees of the Freeholders and inhabitants of Shelter Island, as a donation towards building a new Meeting House, or place of Public Worship on said Island, and that as soon as the Trustees judge that a sufficient sum is subscribed and collected to commence the building, they shall call a meeting of the Society for the pur- pose of agreeing upon a place for the Building, and the choice of a Committee to purchase materials, and to contract with persons to build the same. The House to belong to the Society, and to be regu- lated by them agreeably to the laws of this State, in such case made and provided, and in case more money should be subscribed and collected than is necessary, the overplus to be added to the fund for the support of the Gospel on Shelter Island."

The Trustees, judging that a sufficient sum had been subscribed and collected to commence the building, gave public notice of a meeting of the so- ciety to be held in the school house on Friday, Dec. 8th, 181 5, at 3 o'clock P. M. The meeting was held according to appointment, but that a more general attendance of the Society might be gained, adjourned without action for one week, or until Dec. 15th, at which time the Society, having made choice of WilHam Bowditch as mod- erator and Sylvester Dering as clerk, passed the following resolu- tions: "Resolved, that the Meeting House to be erected shall be Q2 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church built on the Land where the old Meeting House now stands. Re- solved, that Sylvester Bering, William Bowditch, Samuel Lord, Jonathan Doughlass and Henry Conklin be a committee to receive the monies subscribed for building said Meeting House from the hands of the Trustees, and to build the said Aleeting House of such dimensions and materials as the Committee or a majority of them shall agree." A few days after the subscription paper began to be circulated a violent storm swept over this island, something like a tornado, in those days called the "great September gale." This storm felled a large number of Shelter Island's most stately trees. Many of these belonged to Gen. Sylvester Bering, and these he generously donated to the Society for use in the proposed building. Out of them was hewn the massive timbers that form the enduring frame of our present building. "The stars," said the Rev. Mr. Harries, "the stars in their courses fought for them, and the fierce winds of heaven brought them the oaks of Bashan and the cedars of Le- banon." It is indeed an ill wind that blows nobody good. God encouraged the Society in its purpose to erect a new sanctuary for His praise in felling the necessary trees for its frame upon the estate of one whom He knew had His cause greatly at heart, and who would generously donate them for that purpose. The building committee having funds and material at hand went immediately to work, and in less than fifteen months the building was finished and ready for its furnishings. To do this an additional five hundred dollars was necessary, which the parish, at a meeting held March 14, 1 81 7, unanimously authorized the trustees to borrow upon the note of the corporation. Buring the year 181 6, in which the building was under construc- tion, a remarkable revival of religion was experienced on this island. Between forty and fifty persons were hopefully converted, or as the record notes it, "made to bow to the sceptre of Jesus." The origin of this work of grace began in the conversion of a husband and wife in the early part of the year 181 5. These two persons were highly connected, and the marked change in their life greatly impressed the community with the power of religion. Soon a third person became seriously concerned about salvation and moved towards Christ. This deepened the impression upon the people and pre- pared the way for a monthly prayer meeting. This third person was a young woman whose conversion Br. Woolworth speaks of Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 93 as remarkable. The summer came, bringing an increased interest in public worship. The work of the Lord continued to spread and prosper through the fall to such a degree that by the time Christmas had arrived the people, instead of spending the evenings of that week in festivity and mirth, as they were wont to do, they spent them in prayer and other religious exercises, which "most of the young people attended, and the meetings were solemn and marked with animating tokens of divine presence. Things remained much in this state until February, 1816 (I am now quoting from Dr. Woolworth's dedicatory sermon, preached in 181 7), when the spirit of the Lord was poured out as on the day of Pentecost. The work commenced in the school-house (then under the charge of Mr. Samuel Bhillips, a young man of ardent piety, and who subsequently became editor and proprietor of the 'Republican Watchman'). The mind of one of the scholars was so deeply impressed as to con- strain him to cry out and request the teacher to pray for him. This disclosure soon discovered that the minds of many others were the subjects of very special rehgious impressions. The usual exercises of the school the rest of the day were suspended and the time de- voted to prayer, reading the Scriptures and religious conversation. Persons in the immediate neighborhood came in and were deeply affected with what they witnessed. The dismission of the school at night carried the news of the wonderful things which had taken place into most of the families on the island. Much the same scenes were renewed the next day at the school-house. Many came to see and hear and were convinced that what they saw and heard was indeed the work of God. Deep solemnity rested upon the minds of almost all the inhabitants. Religious meetings were at first at- tended every day or evening and thronged by multitudes anxiously inquiring, 'What shall we do to be saved?' The revival thus begun continued in great power for months. The occasional preaching of the Word, which was now frequently enjoyed, and other public religious exercises, were attended with surprising effects. While scarcely an individual in the whole limits of the congregation could be found indififerent and secure, great numbers were the subjects of deep and distressing convictions, under the influence of which they were led to affecting discoveries of their lost estate in them- selves — the infinite evil of sin — the plague of their own hearts — their perishing need of an interest in Christ, and in order to this of being renewed by the power of divine grace in the spirit of their minds. QA Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church In this state of humiliation the mercy of God appeared for those who were brought out of darkness into marvellous light. The enmity of their hearts was slain, and their minds enlightened in the spiritual knowledge of God and divine things. The result of which was unfeigned submission and self-consecration to God, all issuing in repentance towards Him, faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and that composure, peace and joy of mind which these divine graces and that standing in the new covenant which they ensure, never fail to inspire. Though the experience of individuals in cir- cumstantial things was very different, in essentials there was a remarkable sameness. All embraced and rejoiced in the gospel as a system of free grace in all its parts, intended to humble the creature and exalt the glorious Creator. In the course of this revival as many as fifty obtained hope of such a reconciliation to God. Among these were not a few of the stout-hearted, and such as were indeed far from righteousness. But in this day of the mighty power and sovereign grace of God, they were made willing and brought to bow as loyal subjects to the sceptre of the Prmce of Peace. The additions made to the church were between forty and fifty, and the more immediate fruits of this work of grace were a great external reformation, both moral and religious — ^^the prevalence of a spirit of brotherly love — and a great increase of knowledge as to the pe- culiar and appropriate doctrines of the gospel." It was indeed a wonderful work of grace. Oh that it might be repeated in our day! In April of that year, namely, 1816, the Rev. Stephen Tracy, a Con- gregational minister, renewed his labors on this island, having preached here the previous year. On May 5th, after divine service at a parish meeting, he was engaged to preach for six months from April 28th. He arrived in the midst of the great revival, and is accredited with accomplishing two very important matters for this church. "One was the gathering into the church of the fruits of the great revival of the winter of 181 6, and the other was the building of this sanctuary." Rev. Stephen Tracy was born in Norwich, Conn., in the year 1749. He graduated from Princeton College in 1770. The same year he began his ministry at Peru, Mass., where he was ordained in 1772. Here he remained until 1775. Became pastor at Norwich (now Huntington), Mass., May 23, 1781, and remained there until January ist, 1799. After that he labored as a home missionary until his death, in 1822. Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 95 Without doubt the results of that great awakening of 181 6 had much to do with the erection and completion of the church building. True, it had been proposed and set on foot before the revival began, and considerable subscription and material had been gathered for it. Yet faint were the hopes, even by its best friends, that the project would be so soon accomplished, if accomplished at all. Such is the testimony of Dr. Woolworth. We need to remember that the com- munity at this date was still a small one, numbering only between two and three hundred people, and that for them such an effort was in- deed a great undertaking. But the coming of that gracious out- pouring of the Holy Spirit united the hearts and hands of the people in their purpose and inspired them to success to the de- gree that in a little over a year from the time of starting the work was completed. It was considered by all a great achieve- ment for this community, and has been so spoken of to me by some of the older persons in our midst. The amount expended in the erection of that building was nearly four thousand dollars. And now that it is finished we turn our attention to its description and dedication. For information con- cerning these things I must rely on the historical discourses that the Rev. Mr. Harries delivered in 1871. Speaking of the edifice he says: "It was fifteen feet shorter than what it is to-day. On each side of the platform were four seats. In front of it was a platform about ten inches high, on the outer edge of which was a paneled breast- work elevated nearly four feet, with a small desk in the middle directly in front of the pulpit, for the use of the elders when read- ing and of the chorister when singing. This enclosure was called 'the altar' — as great a misnomer as to call Christ's ambassadors 'priests.' There were forty seats before the pulpit and four each side of it, making forty-eight. The first range on the south end, consisting of four seats, were reserved by the trustees for the col- ored people, and the next range for 'any white person.' The body pews were assessed at $2 each and the 'long side pews' at $3.50. They were rented on the 20th of June, at a meeting appointed for the purpose. The attendance was very large and the demand for seats pressing. The four reserved free for 'any white person' were consequently rented. All but two were sold at a premium, some of which were forty per cent, above the assessed value, the whole to be cancelled at the expiration of twelve months, but next year it was to be paid quarterly." 96 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church COPY OF THE FIRST PEW LIST.

The sale of the Pews to be for one year. The Pews to be set up by any person at the price set on them by the Committee, and if no person will give any more, to be struck off to them, but any one has a right to bid and the highest bidder to have the Pew. The money for which the Pews are sold is to be paid at the end of the year, and it is expected the money will be punctually paid to the Trustees without putting the Parish to the expense of collecting. By order of the Trustees, SYLVESTER BERING, Clerk. "On the 17th of the following month, namely, the 17th of July, 1817, the building was dedicated. It requires no stretch of the imagination to conceive of its being filled to its utmost capacity. As you enter you behold 'a sea of faces' upturned to fix an excited eager gaze on the sage, ministerial veteran in the pulpit. Dr. Aaron Woolworth. To the left of him on the platform is the 'deacon's seat,' or more properly the 'elders'.' There are seated the five ofifi- Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 97 cers, viz.: Bering, Doughlass, Havens, Sherrill and Nicoll. The preacher rises in the sacred desk. He is elevated eight feet above the congregation, but he and they think it all right. It is signifi- cant of the exalted, heavenly nature of the minister and the office he fills. He announces the hymn, and directly a venerable form rises behind the little desk in front of the pulpit. It is the chorister. His hymn book is before him. He announces the tune, strikes his tuning fork on the desk, lifts it to his ear, and begins to sound a note or two. The 'pitch' thus obtained, a volume of melodious music fills the house. The dedication prayer is offered. Directly the preacher reads from the 126th Psalm: The Lord hath done great things for us whereof we are glad.' It is the text. The sermon is a credit to the head and heart of its author and a fitting tribute to the memorial occasion. That was a jubilee to this people." And with these lofty words the honored preacher of the occasion consecrated the edifice "as an habitation of the God of Jacob," namely: "Be it henceforth dedicated to God as an house of prayer in which His holy public worship in all its instituted branches shall be celebrated; in which not only supplications and the sacrifices of thanksgiving, repentance and prayer are to be offered up to the God of all grace — but the adorable name of the King of Zion is to be proclaimed in the preaching of the glorious gospel and the ad- ministration of the iholy sacraments of the New Testament. May the incomprehensible Jehovah, whose name is thus recorded in this place, graciously condescend to take up His abode here, and lib- erally bestow upon His people the blessings of His grace and sal- vation, during not only the present but succeeding generations!" While looking over some old church papers I came across the manuscript of the following hymn, which was composed especially for the service of dedication and sung at that time by the people. The author's name I have been unable to discover, thougih much inquiry has been made. It was certainly worthy of the writer and the occasion: Be sacred this sequestered place, These walls we consecrate to God, Who tho' He fills Heaven, Earth and space, Yet makes His churches His abode. Within this House may sacred prayers From contrite hearts, like incense, rise, And mental praise, with vocal airs. Prelude the musick of the Skies. q8 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church Here free from passion, toil and strife, And every care that intervenes, May mortals pass the bound of life To meditate on future scenes. Here may the gospels, Heaven taught page. Be weekly opened and explained. While blooming youth and hoary age Imbibe its truths with love unfeigned. While conscience heaves repentant sighs, For sin aigainst a Holy God, May faith behold with raptured eyes Salvation in a Saviour's blood. Long may this building be sustained, A temple for the God of love. And children's children here be trained For glory in the World above. And now the Society was fully equipped for work. Org'anized and officered, housed in a new and noble edifice, blessed with quickening power, it began anew its activity in the service of Al- mighty God. The same month in which the church was dedicated the women of the Society, always ready and always willing, organized them- selves into a missionary society known in ithose days as "Female Cent Societies." These societies were so called because each member pledged herself to give a penny a week towards the objects of the Society. The Society of the Shelter Island Presbyterian Church soon came into touch with other like societies, and shortly after its beginning received a congratulatory letter from the "Fe- male Society of the Bridgehampton Presbyterian Church," of which the following is an extract: "To the Female Cent Society on Shel- ter Island: We have lately received the pleasing intelligence that a Female Cent Society was formed on Shelter Island. Permit us, dear sisters, to congratulate you on this auspicious event, and to assure you that we most cordially wish you success and prosperity. May your members be increased, your exertions encouraged, your graces invigorated, and every efifort crowned with the divine bene- diction." This was gracefully responded to by Ann Willett Nicoll, secretary of the Shelter Island Society, as follows : Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church gg "The Cent Society of Shelter Island receive and acknowledge, with sentiments of grateful emotion, the united congratulations of the Female Cent Society of Bridgehampton. Permit us still to solicit the continuance of your friendship and interest in our behalf. Actuated by motives which encourage our hopes and stimulate our exertions, we look beyond the present to that period which may wit- ness the happy effects of the united endeavor of our present infant Society. Were our means now equal to our wishes, how cheering would be our prospects. Still, we rejoice and desire to be thank- ful in being made the humble instruments of promoting the cause of Christ, and advancing the glory of our Heavenly Father, who constantly surrounds us by the smiles of eternal love, and every moment brings renewed expressions of His goodness and mercy. Notwithstanding our privileges and distinguished blessings, both temporal and spiritual, few have been our charities, small indeed have been our exertions in doing good. We desire to feel hum- ble. May we all have contrition in contemplating these lamentable facts. We rejoice to hear of the general establishment of Cent Societies in our native land. We indulge the hope that they will still increase, that greater exertions will continue to be made for the extension of the Redeemer's Kingdom. How animating the reflection that the time is not far distant when the spirit of Christ will reign in every iheart and all be united in the same glorious cause. It is a highly favored age in which we live. Even now the rays of the Sun of Righteousness are illuminating the remote corners of the earth, and subjects of the rich grace of God rapidly multiplying. How unceasing should be our praises, how expanded our gratitude, and may our benevolent efforts end only with existence. The Cent Society of Shelter Island was organized the ist of July, 1817. It consists of 34 members. In behalf of this Society, "ANN WILLETT NICOLL, "Sec'y." This church and community has always been highly favored with noble-hearted, whole-souled, spiritually-fervent consecrated women, of some of whom we shall have occasion to speak later on. We regret that the roll of that first Society and its list of officers cannot be here inscribed, but with great pleasure give the fore- going correspondence a place in our work. For a period of eight years after the death of Rev. Daniel Hall lOO Shelter Island and Its PreshyteriaH Church this church was without the services of a regularly installed pastor or resident preacher. Mr. Hall in his relations to this people was looked upon as their pastor, though never installed as such by proper authority. Still that was his relation to them, and is so recorded in the first book of records kept by the session, in which he is twice spoken of as pastor, one of these being the notice of his death, which is entered according to the following form: "Rev'd Daniel Hall, our pastor, aged 64, Jan'y 20, 1812." To him therefore may be rightly attributed the honor of being the first pastor of the Society now known as the Presbyterian Church of Shelter Island, the organization of which he effected and which stands as an enduring monument to his faithful and consecrated labors. During the eight years after his death the church was sup- plied with occasional preachers, some of whom served for several months at a time, as in the case of Rev. Mr. Tracey. Among these were the pastors of the neighboring churches. Rev. Dr. Woolworth of Bridgehampton, Rev. Ebenezer Phillips of Easthampton, Rev. J. M. Babbit of Southampton, Rev. J. D. Gardiner of Sag Harbor, Rev. Lathrop Thompson of Cutchogue. One of these, who I cannot tell, perhaps the Rev. Mr. Tracy, was small in stature though tall in intellect, for in a letter written by a Shelter Island lady who had moved to Connecticut, from whence she wrote to friends on this island, occurs this sentence: "Do you keep that good little minister there yet? I have not heard a better sermon amongst all our ministers and preaching than he delivers." And she had heard many in the Nutmeg State, having attended several of what was knov/n as "Association Days," when the min- isters for a certain region would gather and hold several days of continued preaching. During a large portion of those eight years the conditions of things on this island were greatly disturbed by the war of 1812-15, as we have seen, and doubtless was the cause of the delay in getting a resident preacher as successor to Mr. Hall. Religious matters, however, were faithfully maintained by the elders of the church, who had promised upon their ordination to maintain public worship on the Sabbath when there should be no preaching. And here a fitting opportunity presents itself of paying tribute justly due to the memory of General Sylvester Dering, the first elder chosen and ordained over this church. A man whose life was such a blessing to this place and people that he is rightly esteemed, if not the best and noblest of all men who have lived on Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church loi Shelter Island, at least second to none in these qualities of mind and heart. General Sylvester Dering was the second son of Thomas Bering and Mary Sylvester, and was born in Newport, R. I., Nov. 27th, 1758. He moved to this island with his parents when but two years old. And here he continued to live save during the period of the Revolution, until the day of his death, Oct. 8th, 1820, in conse- quence of a fall from his horse fourteen days previous. The Hon. Ebenezer Sage, of Sag Harbor, who was personally and intimately acquainted with Mr. Bering, wrote the following beautiful obituary upon his decease: "Bied on the 8th inst. at his residence on Shelter Island, after an illness of fourteen days, in consequence of a fall from his horse, Gen'l Sylvester Bering, in the 62d year of his age. "Few instances of mortality have stronger claims upon the sym- pathies of surviving relations, friends, society and country than that of this worthy man. He lived not for himself, his heart was formed for the exercise of all charities of this life. In all the relations he bore to society, he cheerfully and conscientiously discharged the duties of a husband, parent, brother, friend, neighbor and citizen. His chil- dren and grandchildren will never forget the paternal care and ten- derness with which he watched over them from their childhood, and their surviving parent will mourn the remainder of her life the loss of a kind husband and her best friend. His extensive circle of relations and friends will, whenever they reflect upon the constancy of his love and attachment, not refuse to his memory the tribute of a tear. The inhabitants of the island on which he lived will never be guilty of the great ingratitude of forgetting the innumerable acts of kindness that they have for more than thirty years received from him as a neighbor, friend and counsellor; more especially the poor and fatherless, and those laboring under afflictions of either body or mind. Were they on beds of sickness, he adiministered to them as a physician ; spread their pillows and watched over them as a nurse ; consoling them as a friend; opening his purse to their wants and kneeling at their bedside and devoutly asking from the Great Physi- cian relief for their sufferings and consolation beyond the power of human aid. Under his hospitable roof the friend and the stranger were equally welcome, and the poor never departed empty. It may be said that Providence for wise purposes has removed from among us a truly good man. The writer of this has known him nearly forty years, in all which time he has lived his neighbor and in I02 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church habits of friendly intercourse, uninterrupted either by word or act, and does not believe he has said enough — not too much — 'Uay, not enough until he has named the brightest gem in the character of his deceased friend. He was a Christian, and a Christian whose belief and professions were made abundantly manifest by his works. His heart at all times disposed to do good, was warmed and directed to the object by the divine precepts of the gospel of his Redeemer and holy influences of His Spirit. The church to which he be- longed, and of which he was an elder and a deacon, will long mourn the loss of one of its brightest ornaments, and all who knew him will forget whatever imperfections they may have seen in his char- acter and remember naught of all his life but the many amiable Christian and moral virtues. For to few can that divine benediction with more propriety be applied: 'Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord from henceforth; yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors, and their works do follow them.' " Thompson in his history says: "With those who knew him best, we hazard noth- ing in saying that few better men ever lived. Benevolence and sym- pathy for the poor and afiflicted were the tributes of his character, and as a public man he executed every trust confided to him with fidelity and honor. He was Supervisor of the Town many years, a Representative to the Assembly in 1804, and for some time a Major General of the militia." While Brigadier General he issued the following order: Shelter Island, 16 May, 1809. Brigade Orders: The Brigadier General with peculiar pleasure communicates to the detachment from the brigade under his command the follow- ing General Orders: General Orders: Headquarters, N. Y., May 16, 1809. The Commander in Chief agreeable to instructions from the President of 29 April last directs that the detachment of 14,389 of the Militia of this State required by General Order of Nov. 15, 1808, be no longer held in readiness for actual service, and in com- pliance with those instructions he with great pleasure avails himself of this occasion to present to those corps whose patriotism has in- Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 103 duced them to volunteer their service, the approbation and thanks of the President of the United States. THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF. By order of the Commander in Chief, William Paulding-, Adjt. Gen'l. The Brigadier General orders the several Regiments of his Brigade to Parade for the Annual Review as follows: Col. Rose's Regt. on the 9th of June next. Col. Davis's Regt. on the 14th of June next. . Col. Conkling's Regt. on the i6th of June next. Col. Young's Regt. on the 12th of June next. Capt. Jermaine's Co. of Artillery on the 9th of June next. By order of Brig. Gen'l. Sylvester Dering. GILBERT HORTON, Brigade Major. Gen'l Sylvester Dering's remains were interred in the family plot in the rear of this church, and over them was placed a tablet bearing the following inscription: Sacred to the memory of GEN'L SYLVESTER DERLNG Who departed this' life Oct. 8, 1820, aged t\ years. He united a sound and active mind With ardent and exemplary piety. He lived not for himself But for the commu7tity around him. He was a wise counsellor; A nd faithful friend. The prevailing disposition of his heai't Was sympathy for the distressed. And corresponding efforts for their relief. For a long course of year's He held various offices of trust. In Church and State; and died Lamented, Honored, and Beloved. I04 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church Rev. Mr. Harries, speaking of Elder Bering, says among other things: "We owe him to-day for the existence of this sanctuary. But for his contributions and zealous efforts to collect funds, it could not have been erected. He ardently loved and unceasingly labored for the prosperity of Zion. His influence in the church and out of it was unbounded." And Rev. Mr. Lord also adds this tribute: "General Bering was the son of a devotedly pious mother, one of the three godly women for whom it is said that Shelter Island was anciently distinguished. For many years previous to the or- ganization of this church he seems to have been the only religious man who took an active part in the religious meetings. Indeed, without his presence and aid there were no religious meetings ex- cept some clergyman was present." And here we have occasion again to call your atttention to a very pleasing coincidence, namely, to the greatness that characterized the men who were the original occupants of the positions of trust to which they were severally chosen. Our first Supervisor, the Hon. William Nicoll, famed in the annals of Colonial New York; our first Trustee, the Hon. Jona- than N. Havens, equally famed in the annals of the Empire State and Nation; and now our first Elder, General Sylvester Bering, the noble-hearted, saintly patriot and Christian. All honor to these men who reflect so much glory upon community and church. How highly has God favored these in the bestowal of such great and noble citizens. We can well imagine the grief of this community upon the death of such a man, the more so in view of the fact that just two months previous to a day another influential life had closed its career in their midst in the death of Squire William Bowditch. These two men were two of the original Trustees selected in 1785, and had con- tinued in office together almost uninterruptedly for all these years. Now^ both had been removed by death, and sad indeed were the hearts of this people over the loss of two such helpful men. But their cup of bitterness was not yet full. Another potion was to be added six months later when the Rev. Aaron Woolworth, B. B., passed to his eternal reward. For this eminent servant of God had fostered this church ever since the death of the Rev. Baniel Hall. He had been their councillor and friend, he had ordained their elders, administered to them the blessed sacraments, rejoiced in their spiritual awakening, dedicated their house of God, and thus in many ways endeared himself unto them. He died after a brief illness in Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 105 the full possession and exercise of all his powers, April 4th, 1821. Perhaps it was to this celebrated divine that the lady referred in her letter from Connecticut, for Dr. Prime in his history of Long Island speaks of Dr. Woolworth as follows: "Though of small stature, and by no means of prepossessing aspect, he was one of the most able, discriminating and pious divines that Long Island was ever blessed with." One of the early elders of this church, all of whom were ordained by Dr. Woolworth — three at the organization of the Society as a Presbyterian Church and two subsequently — one of these five elders, Richard Floyd Nicoll, soon after his ordination as an elder in 1816, began the study of theology with Dr. Wool- Avorth, and was subsequently ordained a gospel minister by the Presbytery of Long Island, and in time became the preacher to this church for a short period. We shall have more to say of the Ruling Elders of this church later on. We now turn again to. the condition of things prior to the death of Elder Sylvester Dering, or to the beginning of the year 1820. In the month of April of that year the Rev. William Evans was invited to fill the pulpit for 'four months, according to the following minute: "Parish Meeting, April 20, 1820. Voted unanimously to employ Mr. William Evans to preach the gospel to us, and that we will pay him four Dollars for every Sab- bath he preaches for us or supplies the pulpit, he boarding himself. Voted that the trustees agree with Mr. Evans for four months — on the above terms and with this provision, that Mr. Evans be at liberty to take a voyage for his health when 'he shall choose, and if it is previous to the termination of four months, that he make up the time after his return." As no record of payment to the Rev. William Evans appears among the treasurers accounts, it is thought that this efifort proved futile, perhaps because of the ill health of Mr. Evans. Again the Society sought a preacher, this time in the person of one of their former elders, the Rev. Richard F. Nicoll, who in De- cember of the same year, 1820, was unanimously invited to supply the pulpit for four months for five dollars per Sabbath. He re- sponded to the invitation and supplied the pulpit during a brief period in the early part of the next year, 1821. The same year the Rev. Ezra Youngs, then a licentiate, was providentially led to this place and began about the middle of the year to preach to this people. He continued in this relation with slight intermissions from July, 1 82 1, to the middle of the year 1828. This is established by the records of the parish meetings and the more tangible and con- Io6 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church vincing proof of the payments made to Mr. Youngs according to the treasurer's accounts. I mention these facts because this is an en- tirely different presentation of things concerning those early days from what has been said about them by other writers heretofore. During the seven years of Mr. Youngs' ministry in this place there were occasional supplies in the persons of Rev. Mr. Wickam for one Sabbath in 1821, Rev. Abraham Luce for one Sabbath in 1823, Rev. Mr. Moody for seven Sabbaths in 1825, Rev. David Wilson for nine Sabbaths in 1825, Rev. Mr. Moody again for one Sabbath in 1826, and the Rev. Daniel M. Lord in the fall of 1827, then a sopho- more in college, employed here temporarily as teacher in the public school. A person still living with us remembers the subject of one of Mr. Moody's sermons, now preached over seventy-three years ago. It was this: "Building on sand." While laboring here the Rev. Mr. Youngs was received into the Presbytery of Long Island as licen- tiate on the 27th of August, 1823, and precisely five years later, after having assumed the duties of preacher to the Cutchogue Pres- byterian Church, whither he went from here in the early part of 1828, was ordained to the gospel ministry, and there continued for nine- teen years his relations to the Cutchogue church, after wfhich he retired, but continued to live in the place until his death, August 25th, 1876, his funeral taking place on the 28th of that month, so that bis admittance into Presbytery as a licentiate, his ordination to the gospel ministry and his burial all happened on the same day of the year. While serving as stated supply to this church he met her who was destined to become his wife. Miss Maria Nicoll, daughter of Samuel B. Nicoll, to whom he was married Oct. 4th, 1827, in the church, the first ceremony of that kind said to have been held in this sanctuary. His courtship was prosecuted some- what under difficulties, not being acceptable to the parents of the young lady. One method resorted to in order to carry on their correspondence was for the bride-elect to get early to church and there slip into the Bible those epistles so dear to hearts engaged. These, upon opening the precious Book, would come into the hands of her intended. Mr. Youngs was a lineal descendant of Rev. John Youngs, first minister to the church at Southold. He was an able preacher, a graduate of Princeton University in 181 5, having as his colleagues the Rev. Dr. Chas. Hodge, the renowned theologian; Gov. William Pennington, of New Jersey, and other distinguished men in Church and State. After his graduation he entered Andover Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 107 Theological Seminary, where he pursued a full course in Theology, and graduated in 1820 in a class of subsequent distinguished preach- ers and missionaries. He was licensed to preach by the Congrega- tional Association of Andover. His subsequent advancement and ecclesiastical connections have already been dwelt upon. That he had some wit about him is shown by the following incident. In his day upon this island there was no bridge spanning Chase's Creek as there is to-day. Consequently those who wished to cross it would either ford it or row over it. Upon a certain occasion Mr. Youngs and Squire Chase had to cross the creek on the way to the latter's house. As they drew near to the water the squire proposed to the preacher that there was no need of him taking off his boots and wading through the water, remarking: "You just get on my back and I will carry you across." This being agreed to priest Youngs — the title by which the preachers were known in that day — priest Youngs mounted Squire Chase's back and thus they both crossed the stream. As Mr. Youngs dismounted from his friend's back he said: "Well, Squire, henceforth you can never say that you haven't been priest ridden." At another time, after marrying a loving couple, and being asked by the happy bridegroom what it cost, Mr. Youngs repHed: "It is according tO' the kindness of the party." "Well," said the generous benedict, "which will you have, twenty- five cents or a load of sea weed?" "Give me," said Mr. Youngs, "the sea weed." It was during the ministry of Rev. Mr. Youngs that this church inherited through the death of Mr. Benjamin Conkling, in 1826, a legacy of $8,000. Mr. Conkling was the youngest son of Thomas Conkling, one of our Town Fathers; a sea captain by occupation, in which profession he had amassed quite a fortune. After spending the major portion of his life plowing the seas he returned to his native place to spend the evening of his days among this people, during which he was a liberal supporter of this church, contributing fifty dollars annually towards its expenses, and upon his death, leaving no family, having never married, he bequeathed to this church the above-mentioned legacy, which, added to the legacy of Brinley Sylvester, that had grown to be about $1,000 at this date, made a total of $9,000. In 1834 the following inventory of property belonging to the Society was made, showing that it owned personal and real estate to the amount of $9,500, exclusive of the church lot and building. io8 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church Inventory of All the Estate Belonging to the Presbyterian Church and Congregation of Shelter Island, June i, 1834.

Mr. Benjamin Conkling lived to be eighty-two years old. He died Feb. 21, 1826, and was buried in the cemetery in the rear of the church, where there stands a headstone with this inscription upon it: "In Memory of Benjamin Conkling, who died Feb. 21, 1826, aged eighty-two. It is but justice to the character of Mr. Conkling to say that he was an obliging neighbor; in his habits industrious, in his dealings honest. He liberally aided the cause of virtue and religion, and in his last moments bequeathed a large proportion of his property to the Presbyterian church and congregation of Shelter Island, for the support of the gospel." Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 109 Close beside this stone and the grave of Mr. Benjamin Conkling is the grave of his brother, Shadrach Conkling, who died in January, 1827. It too has a headstone with a lengthy inscription upon it in singular contrast to that of Mr. Benjamin Conkling. It reads as follows : "In Memory of Shadrach Conkling, who died Jan. 23, 1827, aged eighty-eight. Mr. Conkling possessed a sound mind and excellent understanding, and was a firm patriot, a good neighbor, charitable and strictly moral. He owned, at the time of his decease, a large estate, which he be- queathed to his relations, who were all very poor, and among whom were seven orphan children. Posterity will decide upon the wisdom manifested in the disposition of the estates of these two brothers." I do not intend to go into the merits of this proposition. One can, however, read very plainly between the lines of these epitaphs. Perhaps this significant fact will aid "posterity" in forming a correct opinion, namely, that while both men were wealthy bachelors, the latter contributed but twenty dollars to the erection of the present building, while the former gave two hundred dollars and yearly hired a pew, giving besides fifty dollars per annum to the support of the church. But we look in vain for Mr. Shadrach Conkling's name upon the pew lists of those ten years which are still in existence. no Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church CHAPTER VI. At the close of the Rev. Ezra Youngs' ministry, in 1828, during the last six months of which he preached here but a third of the time and two-thirds at Cutchogue, he was succeeded by the Rev. Jonathan Huntting. In September of that year the parish authorized the trustees "to make use of five hundred dollars of the Publick property to hire a Minister to Preach the Gospel unto us." Mr. Huntting had just ceased to be the pastor of the Southold church, his pastoral relation being dissolved on the 27th of August, 1828. To that church he had ministered more than twenty-two years, and now, at the age of fifty, in the very prime of his powers, God gave him to this fliock as their shepherd and leader. He here continued to labor until the fall of 1832, a period of four years, during which his labors were blessed to a marked degree. He did not change his place of residence, however. That still remained at Southold, from whence he came weekly to minister unto this people. On June 19th, 1832, the parish sought to induce him to take up his abode on this island by passing the following resolution: "Voted that the Trustees be authorized to allow the Rev. Jonathan Huntting the sum of four hundred dollars a year for preaching for us provided he will come on the island and live." To this proposition he declined, but still continued to supply the pulpit, in response to the action of the parish, to the following ist of July, when the trustees were instructed to "hire the Rev. Jonathan Huntting until they could procure an- other clergyman," presumably to come and live upon the island ; and to this end they were at the same time directed "to write to procure a clergyman to preach for us on trial." Mr. Huntting was a man of marked ability and power; in life pure and transparent, in labors devoted and successful. His long pastorate at Southold is in itself a high testimonial to his excellency of character and ac- ceptableness as a preacher, a workman that needed not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. There are those living among us to-day who remember him with great esteem and warm afifection. One good brother in the parish of Franklinville, whither Mr. Huntting went after ceasing to serve this people, in speaking of him to me said: "Mr. Huntting was a wonderful man, a powerful preacher. I can hear him pray now (nearly sixty years since the Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 1 1 1 time). He put his whole soul into it." The year after he was or- dained at Southold, namely, the year 1808, he married Miss Julia Sayre, of Easthampton, his own native place. How he met this most estimable woman and proposed to her has been told to me by the same brother, and will doubtless be as interesting to others as it was to me, for which reason it will be here repeated. The story is as follows: "While on his way to Presbytery, which met in that year at Easthampton, Mr. Huntting passed through Franklinville on horseback. It was the usual mode of travel in those days, and the route from Southold to Easthampton was by way of Mattituck, River- head. Canoe Place, Southampton and so on to the place of desti- nation. Reaching Franklinville, Mr. Huntting dismounted to pay his respects to Mr. Seldon Herrick, who at the time was a widower. Here Mr. Huntting met Miss Sayre, who happened to be at Mr. Herrick's on a visit. As Mr. Huntting was about to resume his journey, Miss Sayre and Mr. Herrick joined him, the lady intending at the time to return to her home. And so they started off together, Mr. Herrick and Miss Sayre in a carriage, and the dominy on his horse. After they had gone some distance and were crossing the sandy plains south southeast of Riverhead Mr. Herrick proposed a change to Mr. Huntting, he to ride the preacher's horse and Mr. Huntting to take his place in the carriage. This was readily agreed to, so Mr. Herrick mounted the steed and Mr. Huntting placed him- self alongside the fair and attractive damsel. Such close contact had its effect, for before long their friendship ripened so fast that the dominy proposed to Miss Sayre right then and there, and was ac- cepted. By this time Mr. Herrick, having become tired of riding on the dominy's horse, suggested to Mr. Huntting that they resume their original positions, which was agreed to and effected. Now it happened that Mr. Herrick, being a widower, was also in search of another helpmeet, and thinking the present a good chance to get one, broached the subject to Miss Sayre and proposed to her. To his great astonishment and discouragement Miss Sayre responded that while the dominy was in the carriage he had made a similar proposal and had been accepted. They were married Sept. 20, 1808." Mr. Huntting was born Feb. 13, 1778, graduated from Yale College in 1804, returned to his native place and became an in- structor in the academy in Easthampton, at the same time prose- cuting the study of theology under the instruction of Rev. Dr. 112 Slieltcr Island and Its Presbyterian Church Lyman Beecher, his pastor, and the Rev. Mr. Bogart, of Southamp- ton. On the loth of October, 1805, he was licensed to preach by the Presbytery of Long Island. As a licentiate he supplied the pulpit in Fishkill for five months in 1806. In June he began his laJbors at Southold, where he was ordained and installed as pastor the 20th of August, 1807. His subsequent labors have already been stated, except that he frequently supplied this pulpit after the close of his continued services in 1832. As for instance in 1834, when he preached for a month. Again in 1837 for a like period. Again in 1842, when he supplied for two months, and in 1843, when he or- dained two of the members as elders in this church. During them all his home continued at Southold, where he died De- cember 30th, 1850. Thirty persons united with this church dur- ing his ministry, most of them being the gracious fruits of a mighty revival that occurred during the last part of 1831 and the early part of 1832. During that revival they held seasons of services called "four days' meetings," when various members of the Presby- tery would be present to assist the preacher in his revival efiforts. In all one hundred and thirty-two persons had by this date united with the church since its organization in 1808. The next person to unite with this Society was Mr. John Bowers, who joined by letter Oct. loth, 1833. He afterwards felt himself called to the gospel min- istry, and in time became a Congregational pastor, being ordained at Wilbraham, Mass., on May 11, 1856. He supplied the pulpit at Aga- wam Falls for one year. After this he was called to St. Johnsbury, Vt., where he was installed as pastor over the Third Congregational Church Feb. 4th, 1858, and continued to reside there until his death, just five years later, on Feb. 4th, 1863. Mr. Huntting was succeeded by the Rev. Daniel M. Lord, already known to this people, having taught school here during the winter of 1827-8, and at the same time supplying their pulpit and taking charge of the weekly prayer meeting. "That winter," says Mr. Lord in his historical discourse, "was memorable for two events, (i) for the burning of the school-house, with the loss of all the school- books, and (2) for a revival of religion, during which some fifteen or eighteen indulged the hope in the mercy of God. It was a work characterized by deep solemnity and pungent convictions for sin." At this time, as we have seen, Mr. Lord was a sophomore in Am- herst College, with his eye set on the ministry. Upon completing his college course he entered Princeton Theological Seminary, Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church i 1 3 where he pursued the study of theology for over two years. At a special meeting of the church, held Nov. 28th, 1832, the trustees were directed "to hire Mr. Daniel Lord to preach for us until the third Tuesday in June next, and that they allow Mr. Lord at the rate of four hundred Dollars a Year." In his historical discourse Mr. Lord says: 'Tn the fall of 1833, having been licensed to preach by the second Presbytery of Long Island, I visited this island and preached my first sermon in the schoolhouse, the church being closed while undergoing repairs. Mr. Huntting having declined to remove to this place, the good people, under the influence of that sermon, passing over all my early im- perfections, and unmindful of the proverb that a prophet is not without honor save in his own country, gave me a unanimous invita- tion to preach to them for six months." During the winter and spring of that ministry the word was accompanied by the mighty power of God. The Lord revived his work. The church was quick- ened and sinners were saved. Of the fruits of this precious refresh- ing from the presence of the Lord twelve were gathered into the church at one communion season, among them being the last of the aborigines, upon whose remarkable conversion we have dwelt in a previous chapter. At the close of the six months he was cor- dially invited to preach to the people for a period of three years, a longer period than had yet been named in engaging the services of previous clergymen. I am inclined to believe that the date of Mr. Lord's return to this people should be 1832 instead of 1833, and that for the following reasons. Mr. Huntting retired from the relation of stated supply to this people in the fall of 1832. In November of that year Mr. Lord was invited to preach "until the third Tuesday in June next." The following October, or to be precise, on Oct. 14th, 1833, at a special meeting of the parish the trustees were "authorized to hire Mr. Daniel Lord to preach for us three years, and to allow Mr. Lord the income of our stock." The same day the trustees held a meeting and "directed their Treasurer to settle with Mr. Lord and pay him what is due. Also to hire Mr. Lord for three years according to the Vote of the Society." What, however, confirms 1832 as the true date is this reference in Mr. Lord's own discourse, namely: "It was during my brief ministry that the session passed the following vote : 'Aug. 24, 1833, That it be required of members of this church to abstain from making use of ardent spirits as a beverage and to make the violation of this rule a matter of discipline.' " 1 1 A Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church Mr. Lord did not serve the three years period as invited to do by the parish in its meeting- of Oct. 14, 1833, but continued only till the following May, 1834. In April of that year, after a searching examination in theology, experimental religion, philosophy, the sacred languages, polity of the church, etc., by Presbytery, then in session at Southampton, which he passed to the great credit of him- self and the commendation of this court of our church, he was or- dained April 16, 1834, to the exercise of all the rights of the gospel ministry as an evangelist. As Mr. Lord returned again to this charge after an absence of about fourteen years, we shall have occa- sion to speak of him again. Previous to his gioing away in 1834 his successor, the Rev. Randolph Campbell, at the time a member of the Theological Seminary at Princeton, was introduced to the people of this church and congregation. The introduction was mutually agreeable, and resulted in the following action by the church in its annual meeting held June 17, 1834, "Voted that the Trustees be au- thorized to hire Mr. Randolph Campbell two Years and alow him the use of the parsonag^e and four hundred dollars in money a Year to preach for us." "According to a Vote of Parish the Trustees hired Mr. Randolph Campbell to preach for us two Years beginning Last Sabbath in September, 1834." Mr. Campbell responded and con- tinued to labor here until September, 1837, a period of three years. He proved to be an able minister of the New Testament. His minis- try to this church was greatly blessed and owned of God in the con- version of many souls. Several revivals visited this people. On the 17th of January, 1836, twenty-five persons were received into church fellowship. These were followed by a number of others on two suc- cessive communion services. Many among us to-day remember Mr. Campbell with tenderest memories. The two oldest members of our church in point of connection, Mrs. Glorian (Cartwright) Preston and Mrs. Frances H. (Chester) Jennings, joined the church during Mr. Campbell's ministry, on Jan. 17, 1836, now over sixty- two years ago. Rev. Mr. Harries speaks of Mr. Campbell as being "modelled after the Scotch type of the Puritan character, a good scholar, an ardent Christian, rigidly adhering to the rule of duty prescribed in the Word of God, and a very able defender and ex- pounder of its principles. He won and carried with him the hearts of his people, and even at this remote period his name is often men- tioned with respect and love." Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 1 1 5 Shortly after his arrival in this place he married a lady from New Jersey. She, however, lived but a few months after their union, be- ing stricken with death while in New York City in September, 1835, at the early age of twenty-five. He married a second and a third time, and at his death left several children, Mr. Campbell was born at Piscataway, N. J., Dec. 31, 1809; gradu- ated from Princeton College, now University, in 1829. He then became a tutor for three years, after which he entered Princeton Theological Seminary, from 1832 to 1834. Upon leaving the sem- inary he began his labors here. Like his immediate predecessor and fellow student at the seminary, he was ordained an evangelist by the Presbytery of Long Island April 30th, 1835, during his labors in this place. He was called from this church to the church at Newburyport, Mass., the church which is noted all over the world as the final rest- ing place of the remains of the great evangelist, the Rev. George Whitfield, these being deposited beneath the pulpit, where they have now reposed in the tranquil sleep of death for more than a hundred years. Mr. Campbell continued as pastor of that famous church for forty years, until 1877; then he went West to Nebraska for a short period, returning again to Massachusetts, in which State he continued to live until his death, which took place in Rowley, Mass., Aug. 9, 1886, at the age of seventy-six years. Mr. Campbell was succeeded by the Rev. William Ingmire, who was unanimously invited to settle here as preacher of the gospel with the promise of four hundred and fifty dollars per annum and use of parsonage as payment for his services, this action being taken at a special meeting on July 15, 1838. Who had preached here during the nine months previous to this date, since the time of Mr. CampbeH's departure, we cannot tell. That there were those who supplied during the months the records clearly imply. Mr. Ingmire continued to labor here for three years, but not with very encour- aging results. Plis services were attended with more or less trial, lit was a time of great financial depression, and the community felt it. Further^ Mr. Ingmire was the successor of a brilliant man, and suf- fered by the comparison. During this time the funds of the church were in jeopardy. No interest was received, and the means of the church greatly crippled. "The commercial embarrassment of 1836-7 had well nigh dissipated the whole of the large sum given to the church by the late Mr. Conkling. At this distance of time, how- 1 1 6 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church ever," continues Mr. Lord, "we can readily perceive that God in his providence ordered that loss in great mercy to this people, for enough of these funds were saved to answer the purpose of the benevolent donor to secure the object he had in view, viz., the giving of the gospel to this church and congregation. Left without a min- ister and destitute in a measure of the means for the support of the gospel, the church was cast down but not destroyed." Its spiritual life was also very low, only two persons uniting with the church during the three years of Mr. Ingmire's ministry, which came to a close the second day of July, 1841, Again the parish sought the services of "the Rev. Jonathan Huntting to supply us with preaching occasionally, for which they (the trustees) was to pay him as they could get funds, allowing him 5 Dollars per Day and pay his ferryges." This was on July nth, 1841, In 1842 the Rev. Anson Sheldon supplied the pulpit for five Sundays in June and July. His services were so acceptable to the people thait on August ist, 1842, he was unanimously invited to labor among them for one year at a salary of $400 and the parsonage. He accepted the call for his services and continued to labor here until June, 1847, ^ period of five years. The church once more took on new life. The things ready to die were measurably strengthened, and the congregation, according to Mr. Harries, was in a better condition when Mr. Sheldon left the parish than it was when he began his labors here. A number of souls were converted during his ministry, fifteen of whom united with the church, two of whom still continue with us, namely, Mrs. Rosina Tuthill and Mrs. Maria Beebe. With these there were two young ladies who were sisters that united by letter. They were Mary L'H. and Phebe D. Gar- diner, daughters of Samuel S. Gardiner and Catherine L'Homme- dieu, and descendants of Nathaniel Sylvester, the original settler and last sole proprietor of Shelter Island. These ladies lived with their parents in the manor house. Both in time and turn married the late Prof. Eben Norton Horsford, Mary L'H. in 1847 ^^^ Phebe D. in i860, Mary having died in 1855. Mrs. Phebe D. Horsford is still living as the widow of Prof. Horsford, who passed away the 1st of January, 1893. Mary L'H. (Gardiner) Horsford proved to be a distinguished raiember of this church, and deserves special mention here, being an exceptional woman both in piety and talent. Her religious life was far above the average. She seemed to live in an- other atmosphere. Her self control and spiritual repose was won- Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 117 derful, so much so that one day her stepmother said to her: "Mary, haven't you any human nature?" "Yes," she rephed, "it was born with me, but grace has subdued it." One can read that spirit of con- secration and devotion in the following poem, of which she was the author, and which likewise testifies to her exceptionable literary ability: My native isle! My native isle! Forever round thy sunny steep The low waves curl, with sparkling foam, And solemn murmurs deep; While o'er the surging waters blue The ceaseless breezes throng. And in the grand old woods awake An everlasting song. 3 The spireless church stands plain and brown. The winding road beside; The green graves rise in silence near, With moss-grown tablets wide; And early on the Sabbath morn, Along the flowery sod, Unfettered souls, with humble prayer. Go up to worship God. 5 The sunset glow, the moonlit stream, Part of my being are; The fairy flowers that bloom and die, The skies so clear and far: The stars that circle Night's dark brow, The winds and waters free, Each with a lesson all its own, Are monitors to me. 7 My native isle! my native isle! In summer climes I've strayed. But better love thy pebbled beach And lonely forest glade, Where low winds stir with fragrant breath The purple violet's head, And the stargrass in the early spring Peeps from the sear leaf's bed. The sordid strife and petty cares That crowd the city's street. The rush, the race, the storm of life, Upon thee never meet; But quiet and contented hearts Their daily tasks fulfil. And meet with simple hope and trust The coming good and ill. 4 And dearer far than sculptured fame Is that gray church to me. For in its shade my mother sleeps, Beneath the willow tree; And often, when my heart is raised By sermon and by song. Her friendly smile appears to me From the seraphic throng. 6 The systems in their endless march. Eternal truth proclaim; The flowers God's love from day to day In gentlest accents name; The skies for burdened hearts and faint A code of Faith prepare, What tempest ever left the Heaven Without a blue spot there? 8 I would no more of strife or tears Might on thee ever meet, But when against the tide of years This heart has ceased to beat. Where the green weeping-willows blend I fain would go to rest. Where waters chant, and winds may sweep Above my peaceful breast. 1 1 8 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church This spiritually-minded and heavenly-gifted woman took cold one autumn day, out of which tetanus, or lock jaw, developed, that caused her death on Nov. 25th, 1855, ^'^ the early age of thirty-one. Like Enoch of old she had walked with God and suddenly was not, for God had taken her. But though dead she yet speaketTi, speaketh through this charming poem and a number of others equally ex- quisite that make up a volume of poetry entitled "Indian Legends and Other Poems," published the very year she died, and which she dedicated to her father, "as a slight testimonal of a daughter's grati- tude and affection." Let her name be enshrined forever among that galaxy of noble men and women given of God to this church. The parents of this saint were both members of this church, the mother, Mary C. (L'Hommedieu) Gardiner, uniting March 29th, 1829, and the father, Samuel S. Gardiner, twenty years later, on May 20, 1849. He had a remarkable conversion at the advanced age of sixty years. It is said that when he experienced religion he arose and made one of the most marvellous speeches ever made, which is remembered by many to this day. He was an eiminent lawyer and politician. At the early age of thirty-one he had attained such prominence in the State as to be made secretary of the convention that formed the constitution of the Empire State in 1821. He was a very stately gentleman, tall, handsome and attractive, always wear- ing a frilled shirt. After his conversion he became very useful in the church, which he had already served for a number of years as a trustee, being a teacher in the Sunday school. We have now reached the summer of 1847 ^^ the tracing down of those who have served the church as pastor or preacher. Mr. Sheldon's services ceased in June, 1847. About this time the Rev. Mr. Lord returned to Shelter Island after an absence of thirteen years for rest and recuperation. During these years he had un- ceasingly labored as pastor of the Mariners' Church in Boston, and also as agent of the Seamen's Friend Society. His health had become so broken through these arduous duties that he was forced to leave the city, and in order to regain his accustomed vigor and at the same time provide for his family, he turned to Shelter Island with the purpose of becoming a tiller of the soil. Settling on Menantic Creek he was soon engaged in farming, with the happy result of restoring to him speedily his wonted powers. Again he was ready to go forth as a preacher of righteousness, and the Lord of the harvest as speedily pointed out to him what proved to be the last Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church i ig and closing field for his labors. This church being without a preacher needed a supply. It turned to Mr. Lord for the third time in its need. At first it simply asked him to tide over the going and the coming servant of God, whoever he might be, and so one Sab- bath in September, 1847, the male members were requested to re- main after the close of the meeting for the purpose of consulting "about getting a minister to preach for us (them), and they Voted Unanimous that the Trustees offer Mr. Lord $7.00 per Sabbath to preach for them until they could obtain some one permanently to preach for them." To this invitation Mr. Lord favorably responded, but upon the one condition that when they found a man of their choice to minister to them in the things of Christ he would step aside, and if still residing among them would heartily assist them in his settlement and support. Under these conditions he began his labors. The winter came and went. Each succeeding week strengthened the bond between them, until at last the church be- came conscious that the man they were seeking and that God had for them was the very man who stood before them. The result was that on Feb. 28th, 1848, the sense of the church was called for, in a meeting held in the school-house, in regard to calling Mr. Lord, not as a supply, according to the custom of the church since the death of Mr. Hall in 1812, but as pastor. The response was unani- mous, and the Rev. Daniel M. Lord was thereupon solicited to be- come the pastor of this church, with a promise of four hundred dollars per annum as salary. After much prayer, counsel and de- liberation he assented to their desires, and on the nth of April, 1848, pursuant to notice given the parish, met in the school- house "for the purpose of making a call for the settling of the Rev. D. M. Lord as our pastor." The meeting was moderated by the Rev. Anson Sheldon, the church's previous supply. He opened it with prayer. But one feeling was expressed, all hearts being united in the desire that the great Head of the Church might ap- point the man of their choice to lead them like a shep'herd and be a pastor to them. After the prayer this formal action was taken: "Voted unanimously that we make out a call for the settlement of Rev. D. M. Lord as our installed pastor, that we give Rev. Mr. Lord annually the sum of four hundred dollars and the use of the par- sonage and three Sabbaths per annum. We, agreeably to the vote, made out a call for the settlement of Rev. D. M. Lord, signed by the moderator and the elders, and will leave it with the Presbytery of I 20 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church Long Island for them to decide on. Present at the meeting as elders, C. S. Loper and Horace B. Manwaring. "CALEB S. LOPER, Clerk." This call was committed to Presbytery. Presbytery then placed it in Mr. Lord's hands. He agreeing to accept, Presbytery constituted this sacred relation between Mr. Lord and this church on the 30th of August, 1848, by duly installing him as pastor of the Shelter Island Presbyterian Church. It was a happy occasion, in which both pastor and people rejoiced. The like of it had never be- fore been seen on this island. It was the first of its kind. Almost two hundred years had now elapsed since the settlement of Shelter Island. And while during that long period this community was never without those who feared God and worked righteousness, while it had been favored with the presence of those who were world-famed evan- gelists of the glorious news from heaven, while there had lived among them those who were accepted as the ambassadors of the Most High, one of whom was looked upon and acknowledged as pastor of this church, still to the Rev. Daniel M. Lord belongs the honored distinc- tion of being the first duly installed pastor of the church of the living God on Shelter Island. While mo'st of the former preachers of God's infinite grace were as "wayfaring men away from home tarry- ing as but a night," Mr, Lord's relation, now establisihed, was a permanent and abiding one; indeed, as we shall see in the providence of God, the relation was to last until death should remove him from all earthly toil to the heavenly land of peace and rest. As he has left on record the motive that prompted him and the condition of things spiritually that greeted him as he entered upon this pastoral relation, it seems eminently proper that the same should be repeated here, hence the following: "Permit me to say that in accepting the office of your pastor it was not pecuniary compensation I sought. If it had been my exclusive attention would have been given to the broad acres of Menantic. In this respect my worldly interests have suffered; without this ministry I might have been richer in dol- lars and cents. I knew this when I acceded to your wishes. Nor do I now regret it. For it was not yours but you I sought. God is my witness how I have longed for your salvation. I entered upon my labors among you in much weakness and through many discouragements. Twelve years had passed since God had blessed this church and congregation with a special dispensation of his Rev. THOMAS H. HARRIES 18Bi— 1881 Rev. RANDOLPH CAMPBELL 1831—1837 Rev. EZRA YOUNGS 1821—1828 Rev. benjamin F. PARLIMAN 1889—1895 Rev. DANIEL M. LORD 1827 1833—4 1847— 18C1 Rev. JONATHAN HUNTTING 1828—1832 Rev. a. p. BISSELL, D. D. Ph. D. 1884—1889 Rev. ANSON SHELDON 1842—1847 Rev. CHARLES H. HOLLOWAY 1861—1864 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 121 spirit. The church had become lukewarm. Some ol its members had backslidden, alienation of feeling had taken place between brethren, the cause of Christ was insulted and in some instances trampled upon. The youth were irreverent in the house of God, and in some instances forgetting even the common decencies of the proprieties of life. They were without God and without hope in the world. Their conduct seemed to say, 'Who will show us any good?' But God has been better to me and to you than we had even dared to hope. The fruits of my ministry is fresh in your recollection. Many of you were nine years ago the subjects of renewing grace. In that wonderful refreshing from the presence of the Lord you were made to sing of redeeming grace and dying love. The winter of 1848 and 1849 will be long remembered by this church and congregation as the season of the most powerful and extended work of grace with which this island had been previously blessed. I seem to hear one and then another saying at the slightest recollection of those scenes and those events, 'Amazing grace, how sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me!' " You will see from this quotation that a mighty work of grace took place upon this island during the winter of 1848 and 1849. It was the divine witness of approval to the relation that had but a few months previous been consummated. God set his seal at once upon Mr. Lord's ministry to this people, and that favor at- tended to it to its very end, for one revival followed another during the fourteen consecutive years that he was privileged to labor here before the Lord said to him, "It is enough, come up higher!" As the result of that divine quickening in 1848-9, thirty-six persons united with the church on May 20th, 1849, now nearly fifty years ago. Of these the name of Archibald R. Havens, of saintly memory, heads the list. Only five of the number continue unto this day, they are Samuel B. Jennings, Mrs. John B. Bowditch, Mrs. Charles T. Chester, Mrs. Daniel Hudson and Mrs. Charles H. Smith, the first three still retaining their membership in this church. Nine years later another revival took place, and on May 4th, 1856, thirty- two united upon their profession of faith in the atoning work of Christ with this church, followed by nine more during that year, making the total forty-one as the precious fruits of that season of refresh- ing. This was followed by a third revival in the winter of 1857 and 1858, mightier still than any of the many and the mighty that had 122 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church preceded it. Behold what God wrought for this people! "It is the Lord's doings and it is marvellous in our eyes." Fully one- half of the adult population of this island, as the result of these mighty outpourings of divine grace, were the open and avowed professed friends of the Lord Jesus Christ. Many of these still abide with us. They are Mr. Lord's spiritual children, his joy and crown. And so he labored with untiring energy and with marvellous suc- cess until the Lord strangely took him, translating him most sud- denly to the heavenly glories Aug. 26, 1861. It is no wonder that Mr. Lord has been so enshrined by this people in their undying affection that the mere mention of his name makes their pulse to beat more rapidly, their face to grow more brightly as in memory they behold the beloved face and form of him who led them so divinely. Few pastors ever wrought themselves into the very being of their people as did this dear man of God. As 1 think of all this, how his radiant form adorns your homes, how his name is as sweetest smells to your senses, how in labors more abund- ant the power of Christ was so wondrously displayed, I thank my God that He hath appointed me as one of his successors in the same pastoral ofifiice, and at the same time invoke His grace to attend me that I may be faithful in this trust. His death, already referred to, was both tragic and sudden. It occurred on Monday, Aug. 26, 1861, while he was making prepara- tions for the comfort and entertainment of the Presbytery of Long Island, which was to meet on this island the next day. Leaving his home in a wagon with three of his children for the purpose of securing a sheep off his extended farm that was to be slaughtered and prepared to refresh the members of Presby- tery, he was driving along the road when suddenly his horse took fright at the noise of some boards which a neighbor was removing from one place to another, and though at first the animal seemed to be brought under control, it started again, this time throwing Mr. Lord from the wagon so as to strike on his forehead, inflicting what speedily proved to be a fatal wound. While lying prostrate upon the ground a wheel of the wagon likewise passed over his body, mortally injuring it. Neighbors near by ran to his assistance and relief. The first words he spoke were words not concerning himself, but his children, whether "those dear children had been hurt," and to "take care of them." Then he called for water and asked that a physician he sent for, at the same time saying that he Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 123 must be bled. Loving hands did all they could for him, and then conveyed him to his home. He realized the fact that death was near, and so he said in a few moments after: "The Lord have mercy, I am going." Though upon reaching his home he showed some signs of consciousness, "neither the voice of his wife nor the kisses of his children could evoke another word of love from those pale lips. God had sealed them with a sacred seal. Twenty minutes more the husband, the father, the brother, the pastor, continued to breathe in the midst of his kindred and friends, and not a groan nor a sigh gave sign of pain. He fell asleep, and no struggle marked his sweet repose." "So Jesus slept. God's dying Son Passed through the grave and blessed the bed; Rest here, blest saint! till from His throne The moring break and pierce the shade," Three days later his funeral took place in this church in the presence of kindred, Presbytery and flock of God, to say nothing of the great circle of friends that mourned over his going, spread- ing over the New England and the Middle States, all stricken to the dust. And from that day until the present his sacred remains lie sleeping in yonder cemetery awaiting the resurrection of the just, whither tender hands and bleeding hearts bore them that mem- orable day in August, 1861. Never having seen Mr. Lord I cannot speak of him but from observation. However, there is one still living who' knew him intimately, and who in the providence of God was called upon to perform the kind and solemn office of delivering his funeral sermon, the Rev. Epher Whitaker, D. D., of Southold. It is from a printed copy of that able discourse, abounding with personal and exalted testimony, that the foregoing and the following quotations are given : "It would be impossible in a brief space to set forth even the main points of his character. His peculiar training and wide range of intercourse with other men made him at ease in any presence, but never erased one line from his features, which gave him a charm- ing individuality. He was always and delightfully himself. Having a physical frame of medium size he was able, through all his life, to keep it vigorous, sinewy and symmetrical, and even now, on his lifeless face, we may trace the fair lines of that manly beauty which 124 S licit er Island and Its Presbyterian Church the friends of his early years so well remember. He usually showed a degree of activity that would have utterly overcome almost any man. Closely allied to this feature of his character was another which made his home the scene of an unbounded and almost un- ceasing hospitality. His largeness of heart was vast enough to make him desire the welfare of every human being, and the fountain of his cheerfulness was a perpetual spring of delight to all who shared his company. His heart was full of kindness and love for every class, but it knew not the fear of man in any walk of life. He had a special love for the company of Christian ministers. "And how shall I speak of his virtues in the family — his tender love, his sacred truth, his wise forethought, his delicate sympathy, his unceasing devotion, his supporting hand, his protecting arm, and all those nameless qualities which made him, in so high a degree, the faithful husband, the judicious father, the beloved brother? "It was Mr. Lord's high and keen sense ol moral responsibility, as well as his great love for all his fellow-men, that often called him away from his home. What zeal and power has he not shown in staying the waste and the woe inflicted by the scourge of intemper- ance? What village of the county has not been thrilled by his startling pictures and carried to unknown heights of enthusiasm by the flood of his manly eloquence? Yes, we have heard from his lips an eloquence which came not from the schools. He was no surface reformer. He laid the foundation of all his work on the solid rock of religion. This was one source of his excellence as a minister of God's word. He had his own style of preaching, and though it was all his own, it was nearer the style of the model Preacher, who uttered the Sermon on the Mount, than any modern invention or resuscitated antiquity used by popular preachers who make their names notorious in the world. He spoke as one having authority. Few men could speak like him in the use of this element of the preacher's power. His unusual success in the ministry is good evidence for us that God approved his work. Few so well deserved to be called Godlike. Few so closely resemble the Son of Man, who came not to be ministered unto but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many." Loving tribute fitly spoken. Daniel Minor Lord was born at Lyme, Conn., April 9th, 1800. His father dying while he was yet a boy, he was placed in the care of a relative who was a prominent merchant in the city of New York. There he grew to manhood and Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 125 experienced religion. Feeling called of God to the ministry, he entered the Academy of Monson, Mass., from whence he went to Amherst College, graduating in 1830. He then entered Princeton Theological Seminary, and there successfully pursued the study of theology, after which he entered upon his labors in this place. Being called to Boston, he left Shelter Island in 1834 to become the pastor of the Mariners' Church in that New England city. There he labored most successfully for thirteen years, until forced to retire in order to recuperate his health. While laboring there he was in- strumental in converting, among many others, the Rev. Mr. Jones, who afterwards became the noted chaplain of Sailors' Snug Harbor. This Mr. Jones was a sailor. One day he was sent by his captain over the side of the ship to do some painting. It was an exceedingly stormy day, the sea was so rough that no boat could have been low- ered safely into it. As he was painting he all at once looked up and saw to his amazement that two of the strands of the rope that held the scaffold were cut, and that what supported him was the remain- ing strand. His blood ran cold. Horror came over him, and the thought that arose in his mind prompted the question, "Jo^^s, if that strand had broken where would you have been?" And a voice that seemed to be plainly heard made answer, "Jones, you'd have been in hell!" It rang through his ears and kept ringing. He could not get rid of it until he had made his peace with God. He devoted his life to his Savior's service with the above noted success. And now in the starry diadem of Brother Lord in glory one gem shines with conspicuous brilliancy. It represents the conversion of Rev. Mr. Jones, in which Rev. Mr. Lord was chiefly instrumental. "For that one service alone," said the Rev. Dr. Theodore L. Cuyler to me, "the memory of Mr. Lord will continue blessed." One hundred and thirty-three persons united with this church dur- ing his third period of ministry to this church. At the close of the revival of 1856 the church had to be enlarged in order to accommo- date the people. This was accomplished in 1858 by the addition of fifteen feet to the length of the building on the north end, which gave room for twenty-eight more pews in the body of the church. At the same time the belfry was added, giving a much more churchly appearance to the building. These improvements were under the care of Martin L. Prince, George G. Penny and Marcellus D. Loper, who were appointed a building committee for the purpose of effect- ing these improvements at the annual parish meeting held June 15th, 126 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 1858. The whole involved an outlay of about one thousand five hundred dollars. Upon its completion the enlarged and improved sanctuary was rededicated by Mr. Lord to the service and glory of God. Mr. Lord Avas twice married, his first wife being Miss Brown, whose mother, Mrs. Hannah P. Brown, was the author of that noted hymn, "I love to steal awhile away." Miss Brown lived but a short time after her marriage to Mr. Lord. During his pastorate in Boston Mr. Lord married again a Miss Eliza A. Hardy, of Chat- ham, Mass., by whom he had seven children. The mother was still living with all her children when we began the preparation of these papers. Two of the sons of Mr. Lord entered the ministry, a third became a prominent business man in Chicago, while two of the daughters are successfully maintaining a new educational enterprise in this State. Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 127 CHAPTER VII. Mr. Lord was succeeded by the Rev. Charles H. Holloway, who was invited to act as stated supply for one year. He accepted and began his labors in September, 1861. He continued in this relation until February, 1863, when he was duly installed by Presbytery as pastor. In this relation he continued until Aug. 2d, 1864, when his pastoral relation was dissolved by his own request. Mr. Holloway possessed great literary ability, and while the equal of his predecessor in this respect did not possess that personal magnetism of Mr. Lord, and so failed to meet the expectations of some of the congregation. By those who knew him his memory is still cherished with affection. He is still living and cherishes most highly the three years of labor he was permitted to engage in here. It was during his connection with this church that the present parsonage was built, and thus he and his family were the first to occupy it. Previous to this the parsonage was the house now owned and occupied by Mr. Edward P. Baldwin and family, and as such was in turn the home of the Rev. Randolph Campbell, Rev. William Ingmire and the Rev. Anson Sheldon and their families while these clergymen served the Society. The use of it was likewise in- cluded in the salary of the Rev. Daniel M. Lord. He, however, did not reside there, having his own home in Menantic, where Mr. Henry Walther now lives, and of which he is the worthy owner. The first parsonage owned by the parish was bought about 1834 with part of the legacy that Mr. Benjamin Conkling bequeathed to the church. It remained in the possession of the church until Mr. Smith Baldwin bought it about 1850. The Rev. Daniel Hall, who organized the church in 1808, and who lived and labored on this island from 1805 to the day of his death in 181 2, made his home in the house now owned and occupied by Mr. Charles W. Jennings, while the very first minister to live and labor among the people of this community, the Rev. William Adams, had his home in the mansion of Brinley Sylvester, Esq. These then have been the various homes of God's servants who lived on this island while they labored here. Rev. Ezra Youngs made his home in Greenport, and the Rev. Jonathan Huntting in Southold while they served this Society. The successor of Rev. Mr. Holloway was the Rev. Thomas H. Harries, who came for the first time to this island on Saturday, Nov. 128 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 19th, 1864, in order to supply the pulpit the following day. He did this with such acceptance that five weeks later he again occupied the sacred desk. The day was Christmas. In harmony with the spirit of that glad day this church gave Mr. Harries a call to preach for one year, at a salary of seven hundred dollars. The invitation was accepted and he began his labors with the first Sunday of the new year. Two months had hardly passed by when his services, having proved so aocepta'ble to the people, he was unanimously requested to become their pastor at the increased salary of seven hundred and fifty dollars, together with the use of the parsonage. The call was presented to Presbytery at its spring meeting. Pres- bytery placed it in the hands of Rev. Mr. Harries, who, having con- sidered it earnestly and prayerfully, accepted the same. Arrange- ments were made for his installation, and on the evening of the 8th of June, 1865, he was duly inducted into the pastoral office of this church by the following clergy : the Rev. Clark Lockwood, who con- ducted the opening exercises; the Rev. James T. Hamlin, who preached the sermon and proposed the constitutional questions; the Rev. Edward Stratton, who delivered the charge to the pastor; the Rev. Dr. Epher Whitaker, who charged the people, and the Rev. Mr. Knouse, w ning or double dealing. He filled the office of Justice of the Peace 142 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church with wisdom, impartiality and equity, and was as just to an enemy as to a friend. Society very generally respected him for 'his ability, integrity, piety and usefulness. He was emphatically "a. devout man, and one who feared God." This church ought ever to hold his name in grateful remembrance, for he toiled, watched, wept, prayed and sacrificed no little to promote its welfare. He "ruled well" in God's house, and is therefore "worthy of double honor." His death was an unmeasured loss to this Society, but to him it was like the freeing of a bird from its cage. His spirit, released from its prison »house, hasted away to revel in the bliss of endless life, w*here "the smile of the Lord is the feast of the soul." He passed from mortal sight "As sets the sun at eve, tO' rise in splendtor where His kindred luminaries shine, their heaven of bliss to share; Beyond the battlefield, he reigns and triumphs now. Sweeping a iharp of wondrous song with glory on his brow." Caleb S. Loper was a Town officer almost continuously from 1824 to the day of his death, in i860, serving in various positions, from the lowest to the highest, being chosen five times as Supervisor. He was also for a number of years a Trustee of this church. In 1826 he was married to Hepsibah P. Douglass, daughter of Elder Jona- than Douglass, by whom he had four children, one of whom was chosen as an Elder and in time became as distinguished for piety and usefulness as his father, in this church and community. The ninth elder, Horace B. Manwaring, was born in East Lyme, Conn., March 6th, 1805. When nineteen years old he made a public profession of faith in Christ and united with the Baptist Church in his native place. Nine years later, namely, about 1834, he removed to this island. Here he stayed until about 1838, when he moved to Gull Island, there to become the lighthouse keeper. This position he discharged for four years, at the expiration of which he once more took up his residence on this island, and continued here until his death. In 1842 he united with this church upon profession of faith in Christ. His views concerning baptism hindered him not in fellowshiping with those who dififered with him regarding that ordi- nance. He loved the fellowship of those wiho honored God and enjoyed the communion of the Lord's Table with them. In less than a year after his uniting with this church he was ahosen elder, and in this office served the church with zeal and wisdom for twenty- three years, or until his death, on the 19th of February, 1866, in the sixtieth year of his age. He was noted for his good sense and extraordinary prudence. Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 143 As a neighbor ihe was peaceful and accommodating. His friend- ship was warm and abiding, his integrity universally recognized, and his sincere piety undoubted. He was not subject to changes in his devout habits, but was "always engaged in religion." Judgment and prudence distinguished his administration, while his power in prayer and remarkable gift in exhortation made him unusually rich and edifying in his devotional exercises. His life was a testimony and his death a demonstration of the excellency of our holy religion. He approached life's closing hour calmly, "Like one who wraps the drapery of his couch about him And lies down to pleasant dreams." So serenely he cldsed his eyes on this fading, fleeting world to feast his clarified vision on the ever-enduring glories of heaven. Mr. Manwaring was the son of Adam Manwaring and Tem- perance Dennison. He was twice married, his second wife being Nancy A. Havens, daughter of Elder Lodowick Havens. He pos- sessed a wonderful gift of language, which he exercised to the great delight and profit of those who heard him testify of the goodness of God and supplicate the throne of grace. For many years he served the Town as one of its officers in various capacities, among them as Town Clerk from 1854 to 1857. Upon 'his death, in 1866, the whole community was overshadowed by sorrow in losing such a noble soul in the very midst of 'his powers, he being but sixty years old. The tenth person chosen as elder was Charles T, Chester, elected the 25th of January, 1856, and ordained by the Rev. Daniel M. Lord. Mr. Chester was the son of Elder John C. Chester, and was born on Shelter Island. He united with the church July i, 1849. I" iSg2 he was, at his own request, dismissed to the brethren. Being still a resident of this island we forbear speaking of his services and useful- ness to the church at this time. He is the honored father of one of our present efficient elders and of the Rev. Nelson B. Chester al- ready referred to. The eleventh elder was Marcellus D. Loper, chosen and ordained at the same time with Elder Charles T. Chester. Mr. Loper was the son of Caleb S. Loper and grandson of Jonathan Douglass, both of whom had served so conspicuously in the eldership before him. He was born May i, 1827, and united with the church January i6th, 1848. He continued his membership until his death, December nth, 1895. As elder he served for nearly forty years. During all these years he was noted for his great love and zeal for Zion. He constantly had upon his heart the welfare of the church, and was a 144 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church most devout Christian. There was not a position of trust and honor in the giit of this church to which he was not called. Of him it can be said that he fulfilled the exhortation of Christ to "Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father which is in heaven." Being of such a pronounced Christian character the community gladly chose him, like the church, to almost every position of trust within its power, from the lowest to the highest. At the time of his death he was the Clerk of the Town, and in the church an Elder, Clerk of the Session, Trustee and Li- brarian of the Sabbath School. One can readily see from these how useful a citizen and member of the church he was. Well does the author of these papers remember the two visits he made upon Mr. Loper while supplying the pulpit of this church in the month of No- vember, 1895. Mr. Loper was at the time seriously ill with the illness that resulted in his death. In these brief visits he impressed me as sweetly resigned to God's will; firm in 'his faith, having the triumph over death that comes by faith in the Son of God. The second visit was on the Monday after the Sunday on which the church extended the call to the author to become their pastor. Not being present at that meeting, he assured me personally of his 'hearty acquiescence in it, at the same time expressing the hope of its ac- ceptance. The day after my arrival at home I received a letter from him, written after my leaving him, in which 'he again urged upon me the acceptance of the call, and explaining that the reason why he wrote was that he felt he had not been urgent enough at the time of my visit. These things are stated here simply to show the good, earnest character of the man who, though dangerously ill and near his death, lest ihe should not have been urgent enough pens his mes- sage to make sure of it. That letter is sweetly treasured, for the hand that penned it was soon struck with death, and the first service devolving upon the pastor elect the day after his arrival to take up his residence and work upon this island was the funeral service of this faithful soul. And in his going another soul was fixed in its eternal state among the multitude that have gone up to glory and the Father's house from this community and church. Hcxw large a company has already gathered on that Shining Shore. As a testi- monial to his worth the following is a part of what was entered upon the sessional records : "Whereas, Our Heavenly Father has taken from among us in the person of Marcellus D. Loper one whom we had learned to love and respect, whose counsel we sought and whose commendation we Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 145 prized, the session feels called upon at this time to recognize the faithfulness with which he served tihe church and to pay a tribute to his memory. Therefore be it "Resolved, That in the removal of our Senior Elder, M. D. Loper, from the scenes of his earthly activity our church has lost a most faithful servant, the cause of Christ a valiant champion and the com- munity at large a valuable citizen. "For forty years he has stood in the front ranks of our church workers, his whole life bound up in the welfare of the church militant, a firm defender of 'the faitlh once delivered to the saints.' Through this devotion to the cause of Christ we feel it can be said of him as of one of old, 'He being dead yet speaketh.' " In 1858 Elder Loper was married to Mary S. Horton, who sur- vives him. They were blessed with three sons, all of wthom grew to manhood and are still living. Archibald R. Havens was the twelfth person selected as Elder, being chosen April 23, 1865, and ordained by the Rev. Mr. Harries on the following nth of June. Mr. Havens was born on this island Oct. 9th, 18 r6, to Obadiah and Nancy (Robinson) Havens. On May 20th, 1849, '^s united with the church, and continued as a member until his death, Nov. 20tlh, 1894, a period of forty-five years. Con- cerning him it IS the universal testimony of those who knew 'him that you cannot say too much about his noble Christian character. He was a model among men, always looked up to and highly esteemed, implicitly trusted, a saint on earth. One who ever ihad a word for Jesus. Carrying on a country store, he would follow bis customers to the door to drop a word concerning the Savior and His dying love for men. He was indeed a remarkable man. Faithful in at- tendance upon the state means of grace of the sa:nctuary and ever ready to testify for Jesus. He cherished the words and oft repeated them that "They that feared the Lord spake often one to another; and the Lord hearkened and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before Him for them that feared the Lord and that thought on His name. And they shall be mine, saith the Lord of Hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels, and I will spare them as a man spareth 'his own son that serveth him." He was constantly encouraging others into the Kingdom, and was instrumental in cheering at least one soul on to the Savior who is now an honored Elder of this church. How many such jewels are set in his im- mortal crown we cannot at present tell, but shall know some day, ia6 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church "When the mists have rolled in splendor from the beauty of the hills, And the sunlight falls in gladness on the river and the rills, And we come with joy and gladness up to the great white throne, Face to face with those that love us, then we'll know as we are known." Though full of cares at times yet never a word of discouragement did he utter. He dvN^elt upon the innumerable promises of the Most High. They were to him as a sweet morsel rolled under the tongue. Like one of old, he esteemed the Word of God more than :his neces- sary food. And as he lay upon his bed in his last illness in a state of coma those that sat beside him heard him repeating those everlasting and abiding promises upon which his soul was fixed. They were his comfort in the death valley. His parting words, repeated a number of times, were "I'm going home, I'm going home," and his spirit left its earthly tabernacle to occupy the "building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens." Mr. Havens was postmaster of Shelter Island for nearly fifty years, one of the longest terms of office on record in the Postal De- partment of these United States. In 1839 ^e married Miss Caroline A. Hughes, by whom he had six children. Our thirteenth elder, chosen and ordained with Elder Havens in 1865, was Horace G. Manwaring, the son of Elder Horace B. and Nancy (Havens) Manwaring, born on Nov. 21, 1838, and died Sept. 18, 1883. He continued as an elder of this church about three years, when he moved to Westfield, Mass. During his short term as Elder of this church he served with great credit, being a young man of good parts and ability. It was therefore with sorrow and reluctance that the church parted with this young servant when Providence removed him to another place. He died at the early age of forty-five years. On Dec. 7, 1872, the church elected its fourteenth, fifteenth r.nd sixteenth elders in the persons of Benjamin C. Cartwright, Timothy P. Congdon and Smith Baldwin, These three were ordained on Jan. 12, 1873, by the Rev. Mr, Harries, who devoted the entire service that Sabbath morning to the consideration of the office of elder and its duties. The first of the three above mentioned brethren was the last to leave this earth, the order of their departure being just the reverse of their selection. Benjamin C. Cartwright, our four- teenth elder, was a native of Shelter Island, born May 13th, 1815, of George and Lucretia (Conkling) Cartwright. He passed triumph- antly away on Dec, nth, 1896, in his eighty-second year. For more than fifty years >he was a conspicuous member of this church. All Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 147 who knew him honored him. In early hfe he followed the sea, mak- ing a number of voyages in a whaler. In this profession he early at- tained a position of responsibility, becoming commander of the ship. Here his life was conspicuous for at least one thing, namely, he never resorted to the use of oaths or profane language of any kind, so general a custom among seamen. His mouth was clean; no corrupt communication proceeded from between his lips. After re- tiring from the pursuit of the whale he established himself in business of various kinds in turn on this island. Soon his services were called upon in town affairs and 'he was chosen to public office. And nearly to the time of his death did he continue in office, serving the town in almost every capacity, among them as Super- visor, for thirteen years. He was a man who stood firm for his principles, never compromising with evil but always true to his God. He could no more be turned by bribery or intimidation from what he esteemed to be right than you could turn the sun from out its course. He illustrated in all its truth the saying, now a maxim, "An honest man is the noblest work of God." Would that all the men of our community were of his noble, faithful spirit! Never did his pastor want for an attentive, inspiring listener so long as he remained with the church militant. One had but tO' turn his eye in his direction when it would be cheered by his encouraging countenance. And the warm grasp of the hand at the close of the service was a silent "God bless you, my pastor," that cannot easily be forgotten. That hand was constantly extended in doing good. He was the poor man's friend. His generous soul led him to sacrifice himself for the welfare of others. "He went about doing good," and when he came to leave this earth God took care that this devoted servant should have one of the sweetest departures ever granted to mortal man. It was the nearest approach to Enoch's translation that 'has ever come under our notice. "He walked with God, and was not for God took him." Conscious almost to the very last moment, speaking with the loved ones around his dying bed, telling his children of the happy meeting with mother who had gone on some eight years before, and in all confidence of his being brought into the desired haven, his final words were "Safe into port." Then he closed his eyes in that sleep which knows no waking here but which is the sweetest of all sleeps, a repose upon the breast of Jesus, and devout men carried him tO' his burial as they carried Stephen, and made great lamenta- tions over him because "a prince and a great man had fallen in Israel." 148 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church As a tribute to his memory the following resolutions were spread upon the sessional minutes : "Whereas, It has pleased our Heavenly Father to take from among- us, in the person of Elder Benjamin C. Cartwright, a brother in the Lord, whose fidelity through an unusually long term of service entitled him to be considered by his fellow men as holding a first place among those who love our Lord and strove to do His will. Therefore be it "Resolved, That by the removal of Elder Cartwright from the scenes of 'his earthly labors the Presbyterian Church of Shelter Island loses an honorable member, a faithful servant and an efficient officer, one deeply interested in all that concerned the church, both in spiritual and temporal lines, well fitted for service in the former by his simple faitth, his hopeful courage and his charitable judgment of others ; and for the latter by his natural ability, the experience gained in a long business career and the openi-handed liberality with which he responded to all appeals made for the needs of the church. "Resolved, That we extend our sympathy to the 'bereaved family of our departed brother with the assurance that we share their sor- row in the loss of a beloved father and a faithful and wise counsellor, consoled, however, by the knowled'ge that while we miss his familiar form from among us his life remains among us and that we can apply to him that most glorious testimony received from heaven, 'Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord from henceforth. Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors and their works do follow them.' " Brother Cartwright was married in 1838 to Hannah Maria Tuthill, and unto them were born ten children. Two of his sons were in time chosen by the churoh as elders. He was most happy in his domestic relations, surrounded as he was by a large family of chil- dren, grandchildren and great grandchildren, all devotedly attached to this dear old servant of God, this grand old man. "Servant of God, well done! Soldier of Christ, well done! Rest from thy loved employ; Praise be thy new employ; The battle fought, the victory won, And while eternal ages run. Enter thy Master's joy! Rest in thy Saviour's joy!" Mr. Timothy P. Congdon was the fifteenth elder dhosen by this church. Early in life he surrendered ihimself into the hands of the Savior with the purpose to be his as long as fife should last, and this vow he kept religiously until his death Jan. 6th, 1888. At the age ■Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 149 of seventeen he united with this church. He was a member of the church for nearly fifty-five years and an elder for fifteen years. At one time in life he had the ministry in view, and to that end en- tered Amherst College. He was, however, providentially turned from this purpose, and passed his life on this island cultivating the farm inherited from his father. He was a man who possessed natural gifts of unusual power, among them a fine voice, which he knew how to use with great effect in oratory. Being of an emotional temperament, there were times when his soul would mount, as it were, into the third heaven, and the strain would become so great that he would have to desist from attending services in sea- sons of revival, so strongly did they appeal to him. Having a large home, he freely opened and ofifered it for prayer meetings and other religious services. He vcas constant in his attendance upon the sanctuary, and ready Vv^ith his services when called upon. His testimonies and his prayers were listened to and united in with de- light and profit. He taught the Word of God to the young and served as superintendent of the Sabbath school. He was a man well versed in scripture and could use it with great effectiveness. Mr. Congdon was born at South Kingston, R. I., on May 20, 181 5, of Joseph and Elizabeth (Peckham) Congdon. At the age of eleven years he removed with his parents to this island. Here he married Miss Amanda A. Bennet, daughter of Lewis L. and Asenath (Wright) Bennet, a very earnest Christian woman, on the 29th of October, 1843. To them were born seven children, several of whom are our most worthy members at the present time. The sixteenth elder was Mr. Smith Baldwin. He united with the church in July, 1856, and died on June 23, 1884, at the age of sixty-eight years. In early life he sailed the seas, and in time became a sea captain in the whaling industry. In one of his voyages, while touching at itihe island of St. Helena, his wife gave birth to their first child, a daughter, who was named Ella Carroll Baldwin, after the daughter of the Governor of the island. Re- tiring from a seaman's life, he carried on for a number of years the milling business in the old Dutch mill. Upon his conversion in the great revival of 1856 he became a most devout follower of Christ. In speaking of him recently with one who knew him well it was said, "You can say everything that is good of this man and yet not say too much." He was a most conscientious man, and rather than come short in any duty would perform that duty twice. Kind, noble- hearted and generous to a fault. Often would he be found in his mill I ro Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church on his knees praying to God for himself, his loved ones, his neigh- bors; yea, everybody, mentioning one after another in prayer before the throne of grace. He was a man of humble and devout spirit, untiring in his services for the glory of his Risen Master. So deeply conscious of the awfulness of sin and the absolute need of a Savior, of man's lost condition outside of the Lord Jesus Christ, that at times he would wonder whether he had a standing in Christ. His was more the negative than the positive disposition. While his saintly wife was just the opposite, so that the two together formed a most perfect couple. One day a stranger was being conveyed across this island, and as he was riding along he said to his con- veyor: "Does Smith Baldwin still live on this island?" Being told that he did, he said: "I wish you would take me to where he lives if it isn't too much out of your way, and I will pay you extra for it, as 1 want to see that man because I have learned to respect and greatly esteem him. Early in life I sailed the seas with him, and it was while in the midst of an awful storm that I learned to regard him so highly. Things looked black aboard ship at that time. All hands felt fearful, but Smith Baldwin stood calm, self-possessed and confi- dent, and I could not help but admire him as he gave his orders to the men, all of which were readily obeyed, and if ever I learned to respect a man it was Smith Baldwin." It is needless to say that he was carried to his friend's house, and the exchange of greetings was so warm and hearty that the time seemed very short ere the evening was upon them. May the stranger and his honored captain renew their friendly greetings in the better land. The following minute was entered upon the records the day of Brother Baldwin's death: "Our esteemed brother. Smith Baldwin, having been removed by death on the morning of this day, we enter the following minute, namely : "With humble submission to the dispensation of God's holy providence, the session records the death of one of its members, Smith Baldwin, who departed this life on Monday, the 23d day of June, 1884, in the sixty-ninth year of his age." Mr. Baldwin was born in 1816 at Babylon, Long Island. His parents were John and P-hebe Smith Baldwin. On June 7, 1847, he married Miss Maria Cartwright, daughter of Anderson and Cynthia (Payne) Cartwright, a most devoted servant of Christ. To them were born several children, only one of whom, a son, Edgar P., lived to grow to manhood. Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church l^I What a remarkable body of men has God given unto this church as elders. How nobly have they served and what glory have they brought to this high office in the church of God. Besides these six- teen brethren the church (has chosen the following also as elders, namely: Winfield S. Gartwright, Byron Griffing, J. Edward Chester, Arthur S. Gartwright, E. Havens Payne and Scudder Smith, mak- ing 'twenty-two in all. These are all still living and rendering most efficient service. Of these the first, Winfield S. Gartwright, having removed from the island, has ceased to exercise his office in this church. He is, however, still an active elder, serving as such in the Presbyterian Church of Islip, where he now resides. He was elected on June 5, i88i, and ordained by the Rev. Mr. Harries the following Sunday, June 12, 1881. The three following Mr. Gartwright, namely, Mr. Byron Griffing, Mr. John Edward Chester and Mr. Arthur S. Cartwrig'ht, were elected elders on Nov. 8, 1891. At the same time the church adopted the rotary system of eldership in the place of the life eldership, which had prevailed up to this time, but now having adopted the rotary, or term system, these brethren were elected for three years, two years and one year respectively. Two weeks later they were sol- emnly ordained to their office by the Rev. B. F. Parliman, and they have continued in active service until the present time, being re- elected whenever their term has expired. On Nov. 2, 1896, the re- maining two brethren, E. Havens Payne and Scudder Smith, were chosen as the successors of Archibald R. Havens and Marcellus D. Loper, deceased. One month later they were ordained by the present pastor. Propriety seems to forbid any extended remarks concerning these brethren at this time. But the writer wishes at least to state that as a body of advisers and helpers they have been most faithful, considerate and brotherly. In all his relations with them he has re- ceived nothing but kindness and encouragement. The spirit of unity and of love has been the spirit of them all, making the relations of the pastor with them nothing but of the pleasantest kind. They have my highest regards. I esteem them for their work's sake and am ready to declare that thus far they have been loyal and earnest co-laborers with me in the solemn responsibility of the oversight of this flock of God, forming a body of elders of which the church may be justly proud. May God spare them for many years unto this church, and may they by His grace more and more magnify their office, as we feel this to be their heart's desire. And When their course is run ie2 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church may the portals of heaven swing open wide for the incoming, and may the King greet them with the words of highest praise, "Well done, thou good and faithful servant, enter into the joys of thy Lord." "How beautiful it is for man to die upon the walls of Zion! to be called, Like a watch-worn and weary sentinel, to put his armor off and rest — in heaven." And here a tribute is due to the men who have had the care of the material things of this church; in other words, to the Board of Trustees, organized in 1785, and in continuous existence until the present time, a period of more than a hundred and thirteen years. The various members of this body who have served in all these years are tabulated elsewhere. The existence of this board antedates the organization of the church by twenty-three years. The congrega- tion for which they acted at first, however, properly dates its ex- istence from the building of the first meeting house in 1743, a hun- dred and fifty-five years ago. We have spoken of a number of these men to their deserved praise. And in that praise the present members of the board can justly be included for their wise, judi- cious and faithful service in looking after the material things of this religious corporation. The present excellent condition of the church's property, the freedom from debt and the safe investment of funds now in their hands proclaim their efficiency most effectively. There are still others who iliave been of great service to this Society whose names have not yet been mentioned. As we have already said, some names must be omitted. We cannot enumerate all those who have been conspicuous in this church for holy living, extended usefulness and Godlike character. One of them, however, must be here enshrined, because he has left behind him a name that is like precious ointment poured forth. I refer to Martin L. Prince, one of nature's noblemen, a whole-souled follower of the Lord Jesus Christ. A man whose consecration was a living sacrifice acceptable unto God. Who literally gave himself for the good of this community, neither sparing effort or money to bring about the largest results in matters and movements that ele- vated and refined. He was the most useful man in the whole com- munity. A leading spirit in temperance reform and in the cultivation of music, raising them both to such a high stage of effectiveness and efficiency as to make Shelter Island famous abroad in both of these departments of laudable and praiseworthy effort. How sweetly is his Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church 153 name cherished by the older portion of this community. In his day a notable trio lived on this island in the persons of the Rev. Daniel M. Lord, Archibald R. Havens and himself, Martin L. Prince. These were so conspicuous, each in his department, that it led one eminent man to remark that the Shelter Island community ought to be a very happy people with a "Lord" for a pastor, a "Prince" living among them and a "Haven" on dry land. All hail to the name of Martin L. Prince! And as regards the women of this church, as much could be said to their praise as has been recited of the other sex in these papers. Some have already been alluded to. Along with those already mentioned we enroll the names of Mrs. Thomas Bering, Mrs. Mary Parker, Mrs. Esther Case, three spiritually minded women who used to unite their pray- ers under the shadow of a haystack before ever a church was or- ganized on this island. Other women since then have carried the light of God aloft, as Mrs. Lucretia Cartwright, a remarkably de- voted woman; Mrs. Smith Baldwin, as remarkable an example of filial afifection and untiring service to both hig^h and low, rich and poor, knowing no creed or caste in her self-denying labors. Among the younger women there shines out the name of Mrs. Esther (Tut- hill) Loper with those already mentioned. But we must forbear, though many appeals come to us from Sunday-school and Young People's societies, from temperance or- ganizations and missionary bodies, pleading for a place and a re- 'hearsal. Concerning each one of which a noble record could be given. Perhaps another hand will pen their immortal deeds. As the conclusion to this historical review, I am more than pleased to be able to give the following poem written by Elder Byron Grififing for the rededicatory services in 1897, and entitled "Hallowed Echoes," since it so beautifully refers to these varied persons and departments of work connected in the past with this honored church of God. I. 2. As stronger hands have from the past For as o'er altar, aisle and pew The curtain drawn aside, This sunset glory lays, And on their efforts borne us back Streaming across the wrecks of time O'er time's unchanging tide, From light of "former days," 'Twould seem that angel fingers swept We catch these harmonies long hushed Harps long in silence lain, That once this temple filled, And woke from out the vanished years And throbbing hearts again respond Their sleeping chords again. To hearts forever stilled. 154 Shelter Island and Its Presbyterian Church How vast yet varied are the tones These hallowed echoes bring, What gracious messages they bear. What countless changes ring! They plead from o'er the sacred desk. From off this altar call, And from yon lonely gallery In tuneful cadence fall. 5- They break from hillsides rough and steep Where sturdy pilgrims trod. Who came with grateful heart and voice To give this house to God. Not "that which cost them naught " was then Upon God's altar laid, But that for which they long had sought And labored for and prayed. 7- They tell of burdens bravely borne, Of tears in secret wept, Of pleadings none but God and heaven Hath in remembrance kept. They tell of hallowed moments spent Around some mercy seat, Where with the Master kindred souls Have held communion sweet. 4- They rise from 'midst those lonely woods And stacks of new-mown hay. Where saintly women years ago Gathered to praise and pray. They peal from out the tempest blast That forest monarchs felled, Whose hearts of oak for fourscore years This temple hath upheld. 6. They steal from hidden, thorny paths That weary feet have pressed, Where patient souls with steadfast faith Waited the promised rest. They bear the sweet, submissive song Of spirits sorely tried. Who 'mid life's darkest hours could sing There's " light at eventide." 8. They sound from yonder library's walls, Ring with past Christmas cheer. And o'er Mount Auburn fondly breathe A sweet memorial here. They drop from those mosaic panes Whispering the name they bear. And fall on grateful hearts to stamp Its deeper impress there. They tell of one whose life and work Were love and tenderness. Whose tireless feet were swift to seek, Whose hands as swift to bless. Who knew no station, age nor sex. No color, race nor creed; Her ministries, like those divine. Encircled all in need. For what were all these conflicts waged. These holy triumphs won, These trials patiently endured, These deeds of kindness done ? Methinks an hallowed echo doth Yon chapel's silence break. And in a pastor's thrilling tones Answers, "For Jesus' sake." They tell us how with faltering steps An aged saint had come. Content that at God's holy feast His soul should find a crumb. Nor thought that from his morsel shared With those in greater need A fragment, though long years should fall, Our hungry souls to feed. 12. O! temple of the living God, In thy new beauty dressed. May he who hath enriched thy past Be still thy constant guest; And when the present's sunset glow Is o'er the future cast. Still may as hallowed echoes fall As ring from out thy past!

Note.— The Compiler of these tables will esteem it a great kindness on the part of those who, discovering an error, or able to supply what may be lacking in them, will kindly inform him of it or send the same to his address. He would also suggest writing upon the margin the additions and corrections which have come tq hand, opposite the sections to which they belong. KEY TO THE FOLLOWING TABLES, Taking as an Example the Record on the Opposite Page. THE TABLES ARE DIVIDED INTO SECTIONS, EACH SECTION REPRESENT- ING A FAMILY AND FOLLOWING EACH OTHER IN NUMERICAL ORDER. The numeral "i" in all cases is assigned to the family of the person whose name heads the table. Thus the numeral "i" on the opposite page will be seen to stand at the top of the family record of John Havens. The letters of the alphabet act in the same capacity, only that they are assigned to the families through whom the person's ancestry is to be traced, which is given in each table so far as the compiler has been able to trace it in this country. Thus Mr. John Havens' ancestors are here given under the letters "A" and "B" back to the first Havens who came to America, and who in this case was his grandfather, namely, William Havens. The line through which Mr. John Havens descended from William Havens is indicated by the letter "B" which will be seen to stand before the son George of the first William Havens. This letter, like the numerals that appear in the subsequent family records, intimate that the person before whose name the letter or number stands, not only married, but had a family, and that the record of that family can be found under that letter or number in the table of which it is a part. Thus under the letter "B" is to be found the family record of George Havens, who in this case was the father of Mr. John Havens. In the record of George Havens it will be seen that the numeral "i" precedes the name of John, which refers the reader for the record of his family to the record that appears under that number, and so on through the table. By this arrangement the ancestors and descendants of any person whose name appears in any of the following tables, save of the parents of those who have married into the family, can be easily traced. In some of the sections, as for instance in section No. 16, page 185. it will be noticed that the names of both of the parents are set in small capitals. This is to indicate that the marriage between those persons was a consanguineous one, that is, between blood rela- tions, they having descended from the same ancestor.

In 1655, Freeman; 1663, Commissioner; 1667-71-74; 80-86, Deputy; 1675, 86, 90-91, On Aug! 26,'^i686, he signed an address with the other Quakers to the King in regard to the Writ of Quo Warranto. They desired to be excused from bearing arms, being a peaceable people and willing to pay all just rates and duties for carrying on the Commonwealth affairs. On Tan. 30; 1690, he, with five other Assistants and Deputy Governor Greene, wrote a letter to William and Mary congratulating them on their accession to the crown, and informing them that since the deposition of Sir Edmund Andros, the former Government under the Charter had been resumed, mentioning also the seizure of Andros in Rhode Island on his flight from confine- ment in Massachusetts, and his return to Massachusetts on demand of that Colony.

Savage' s Genealogical Dictionary says a John Bowditch of Boston, married in 1682, Temperance French, a daughter of John French, the first of Bralntree. She died Aug. 12, 1720. A William Bow- ditch resided in Salem, in 1639. This William is thought to have come from Devonshire, England, as the name Bowditch is frequently found there. In 1643, this William received a grant of land. His wife's given name was Sarah, by whom he had a son, Nathaniel, who was baptized Feb. 12, 1643. Another son, named William, born perhaps in England, was the only son his father left. This son, William, was a custom officer under the Colonial administration. He died suddenly in 1681, leaving an only son, also named William, born in 1663. This third William became eminent at Salem, for his usefulness. In 1688, he married Mary Gardner, daughter of Thomas Gardner, and died May 28, 1728. He had seven children, one of whom named Ebenezer, born April 26, 1703, married Aug. 15, 1728, Mary Turner, daughter of the Hon. John Turner, and died Feb. 2, 1768. He alone, of the seven children, left male issue ; one of his sons, named Habakkuk, being the father of Nathaniel Bowditch, the very celebrated astronomer and translator of La Place. 198 JOEL AND JOHN BOWDITCH 1.
