'Qi;' mm) flf tijc 5 cab. Many ages ago the eloquent Pericles, in an oration in honor of the hero-dead who fell lighting for the liberties of Greece, declared in true and burning words the good of doing honor to the memory of the noble dead. It was not that they — immortal in their deeds — needed temple or column to perpetuate their fame or reward their virtues, but because the living, by thus spurring emulation of the good and heroic dead, inspired and ennobled themselves. Their homage was proof that they were not ungrateful, nor insensible to the deeds that constitute glory and renown. No wreath is given, and no monument reared by a nation to the memory of its illustrious dead, but it blossoms with ijood for the livinitaf'hs and buries our 7'ery tombstones." The practice of erecting memorials of some kind is almost coe%'al with the existence of the human race, but at what precise date epitaphs were fir,-t intro- duced, and by what nation, is involved in obscurity. The first we have been able to find is that about S76 B.C., when Sardanapalus, the last King of the Assyrians, ordered the following inscription to be engraved on his tomb, which was found at Anchiale in the time of Alexander, 543 years later: — " Sardanapalus built Anc/iiale and Tarsus in one day. Go., Passenger., eat.^ drink^ and rejoice, for the rest is nothitig.'' Epitaphs have long been declared as a means of communication between the living and the dead ; a means of instruction as well as a reminder of our mortality. It is that we may make acquaintance with those who have lived before us, to in- quire into their habits, their peculiarities, to investigate their history, which is not the least interesting object of the student and the antiquary, and to the biog- rapher they are legitimate sources of inquiry. The importance of monuments and inscriptions cannot be too strongly stated. But for these, many persons, as well as events worthy of remembrance, would have been forgotten. In the early days of epitaphial writings, inscriptions were prohibited except upon the monuments of illustrious persons; but now it is the universal custom among all classes of people to adopt them. An epitaph to the honor of the dead has ever been regarded as of all praise the most noble and the most pure, especially when it expresses the character and actions of the good. Private virtues are as much entitled to this homage as public ones, and the title of a good parent, a good friend, and a good citizen is worthy of being engraved on brass or marble. Thus the tomb of a good man may in some degree be made to supply the want of his presence, and attach a veneration to his memory, and prove a benefit by his example, " Records on tombstones," says Leigh Hunt, "are introducers of the living to the dead, makers of mortal acquaintances; and 'one touch of nature,' in making the whole world kin, gives them the right of speaking like kindred to and of one another." An eminent writer says. " When I properly look upon the tombs of the great, every emotion of envy dies within me, — when I read the epitaphs of the beauti- ful, every inordinate desire goes out, — w^hen \ see the grief of parents for chil- dren, my heart melts with compassion, — and yet,, when afterwards I have beheld the tombs of parents themselves, I see \]|i«. vanity of grieving for those that we must follow, — when I see kings lyi.i;i;g^, perhaps, by those who deposed them, — VI PREPACK. when I consider rivals who are ]ihiced side hy side, or the great men who divitled the world with their contests and disputes, in the same situation, I reflect with sorrow and astonishment on the little competitions, factions, and dehates of man- kind, — and finally, wlien I read the several dates on the tombs of some who died recently and some wiio died many years ago, I consider that great day when we shall be all cotemporaries a id make our appearance together."' The author of this work lias for a long time been exceedingly interested in col- lecting memorials of persons who ha\-e been distinguished as citizens as well as in the annals of fame, and whose memoiy should be cherished with a reverence due to their position. Among the many places that the writer has visited, none has exceeded in interesting associations that of Plymouth and of "Burial I/ill." and as the interest attached to this beautiful spot, once trodden by the steps of our early fathers, has become so universal, the long-cherished purpose of preserving the memorials of this locality has at last been realized, and the results are now offered to the public in this volume, with the hope that all may find as much personal gratifi- cation in its perusal as has the writer in its compilation. Epitaphs descriptive of the personal character and social lives of those who lie beneath them are interesting and instructive, especially when drawn \\\\\\ truth and discrimination, and the advice given to the living in many of them are worthy of more than a passing thought. It would seem but natural that in a burial ground found in the oldest town of New England, the grave-stones shouUi be the earliest to be found anywhere; but such is not the case. There are found elsewhere many whose records antedate those on Burial llill, but none more interesting. Those buried here are mostly descendants of the early Pilgrims, as will appear by a careful perusal of the index at the end of this volume. Here there are not only single graves representing a family, but whole liouse- holds, — parents, brothers, sisters, children, and grandchildren, — all grouj^ed together in immediate proximity; these, united in life, are not separated in death. Among these occupants of the soil may be found persons of prominence as well as those from theordinary walks of life. Here rest the remains of many of the earliest settlers of the colony and children of the next generation, none of whom are now living. Here, too, may be found ministers who led the devotions of the saTictu- ary near bv, which, for many years, was the only church in the town, and those who, by their lengthy terms * of faithful pastoral duties, manilested an interest in their fellow-worshippers, and desired to remain in their midst after death. Here moulders the dust of several prominent physicians who completed their terms of usefulness to their fellovv-townsmen. and lie within this sacred enclosme 'beside those whom even their skill could not save. Here also may be found the names of those who were called to take an active part in the councils of the nation when the country was in peril during the rev( - lution, and a long list of those who died in their country's service in the late rebejlion. Many also who have lost their lives on the perilous sea have found their iuial resting-place beneath the turf in these grounds. At the time of commencement in copying these epitaphs, nearly forty years since, there weix' a large number of badly broken and defaced grave-stones lying about tlie ground. Since the work was begun a still larger numl)cr of slates * Rev. I ir. KcniliU was pastdr of llie First Churcli for ne.irly sixty years. PREFACE. VI! hnvc given way to the ruthless stonns of years, or have been removed and others of a more imposing kind have taken their places, in the form of marble Tnonn- inents and tablets or enduring granite. This will account for some of the in- scriptions being found in different places m the volume, as the earlier ones are printed as foimd on the slate stones which afterward were removed, and on the new monuments the same names and dates were placed. There are also a large number of inscriptions herein for which no stone can be found. The list of such will render this work the more valuable, as it will preserve the names of many which otherwise would have been forgotten. It was originally intended to print these epitaphs to the year 1858, but time has wrought so many changes, and so many additions have been made since that date, it was deemed advisable to bring them to the present time. Great pains have been bestowed in the copying, and it is believed the results will be of great value to the antiquary, the genealogist, and the historian, as well as to the pub- lic at large. It will be noticed that much labor and expense have been bestowed on this work in illustrating many of the monuments wliich it is thought would add much to the interest as well as value to the volume. The author would respectfully acknowledge the kind assistance and encour- agement he has received from many friends in Plymouth as well as elsewhere, during the progress of this work, and would especially mention Hon. William T. Davis, late president of the Pilgrim Society, as well as historian of Plymouth ; Dr. Thomas B. Drew, curator of the Pilgrim Society at Pilgrim Hall ; also to the family of the late William S. Russell, Esq., who did much in preserving the historical records of Plymouth, and publisher of " Recollections of the Pilgrims ; " also to David Pulsifer, Esq., the well-known antiquary of Boston. To Captain Charles C. Doten, editor of the ''Old Colony Memorial," he is indebted for the free use of files of that paper; and to his son. Charles M. Doten, Esq., correspondent of the Boston Herald, for the kindly assistance rendered, he tenders his hearty thanks. y^)idence was on Summer street, but afterwards removed to Rocky Nook, where he died. The remains of his lellar are visible a short distance north of the residence of the late Hezekiah Ripley. The colonial records say, " He was a godly man a)id an ancient professor in the wa\s of Christ, and proved a useful instrument of good in his place." His descen- dants are quite nuinetous. The late Reverend John Howland of Carver, Mass., was giai (Ison of Mr. Howland. He wa> the last man of them that came over in the May- tli wer, who settled in Phmouth. On the passage to this country in the Mayflower the weather was tempestuous, and in a severe storm Mr. Howland fell overboard and came near losing his life. The following is a record of the accident in Bradford's own words. : — "And in one of them as tliey thus lay at hull, in a mighty storme, a lustie yonge man (called John Howland) coming u])on some occasion above ye grattings, was, with a seele of ye shipe throwne into [ye] sea; but it ])lea.sed (iod yt he caught hould of ye tope-saile halliards, wliicii htinge over boaril, & rane out at length ; yet he held his hould ('hough he was sundrie fadomes under water) till he was hald up by ye same rope to ye brinie of vc water, and then with a boat hooke & other means got into ye shipe againe, & his life saved; and though he was something ill with it, yet he lived many years after, and became a ])rofitable member both in church and comone wealthe." 3. Here Lycth ye Body | of EDWARD GRAY | Gent Aged Abovt I 52 years & Depart'l | this life ye Last of | June 1 68 1. Mr. Gray cama to this conntrv with his lirother Thomas about 1643. Thomas removed to Tiverton, R.I., and Edward settled in Plymouth. His name frequently 4 EPITAPHS FROM ISLMUAI, IflLL, ajipears in tlic records of that town, and he became a large owner of real estate. IJy his habits of industry and good management, he acquired a large property, his estate having been estimated the highest in the colony, at one time amounting to ;i^[2 5i sterling. He was a large owner of land at Rocky Nook, Kingston, where tlie o d family mansion still stands on the old road leading from Plymouth to Kingston, and is now owned and occupied by his descendants. lieside his gravestone is a painted sign erected by the town of Plymouth, as fol- lows : — The i,n-ave of | EDWARD GRAY, | Died | June i6Si. 4. Here lyes btiried | y^ body of Mr. | WILLIAM CROWE | Aged Abovt 55 \'ears | who dec"^!- Jaiuiar\- | 168.^. He married Hannah, daughter of Josiah and Margaret (Bourne) Winslow, a brother of Governor Edward Winslow, in 1665. She afterward became the wife of John .Sturtevant, and died March, 170S-9. Beside this gravestone is the following inscription on a ])ainted signboard : — The t,rrave of | WILLIAM CROWE | Died | Jan. 1683. 5.

Here Lyes ye Body of | M' THOMAS CLARK Aged | 98 Years departed | this hfe March | ye 24^^ 1697. "It is a well received tradition that this ancient man was the mate of the May- flower, and the one who first landed on Ji'T'^'^y^fWW^^^rt^v" the island in Plymouth Harbor which bears his name. Little is known of the life and circumstances of the mate of the Mayflower; his name is not among the signers of the original compact, nor mentioned among the first settlers. It may therefore be conjectured, that he was considered merely as an officer of the ship, and that he returned to England in her with Captain Jones, and subsec[uent!y came over and settled in this town. We find his name among those who received allotments of land in 1624; and he also shared in the division of cattle in 1627. He resided at Ee\ River, and it is supposed that his family were among the sufferers in the house of William Clark, when attacked by a party of savages, March 12,1676. He being himself absent at meeting escaped, while eleven others were massacred and his son tomahawked, who ever after wore a silver plate on his head from which he was called Silver-Head Tom. Numerous lineal descendants from Thomas Clark now reside at Eel river in this town, and in other parts of the Old Colony. There is a handsome China mug whose pedigree is traced through the Clark family back to Thomas Clark, which had been i)resented to the cabinet of the Pilgrim Society by Betsey B. Morton, a descendant, ancl also a leathern pocket-book with the initials T. C. impressed on its cover, presented by Amasa Clark. These relics afford additional evidence that the mate of the Mayflower died in this town, and that his ashes rest in the grave in our burial place designated by a stone with the above in- scription." There is a sign board at the side of this gravestone on which is the following in- scription : — The grave of THOMAS CLARK ] Died | March 24, 1697. KriTAl'IIS FROM IJL'RIAL HILL. /. Here lyeth buried y^ body | of that precious servant of | God, Mr THOMAS CUSHMAX, who, | after he had served his | j^eneration accordin^c^ to | the will of God and | particularly the Church of I Plvniouth for many years in | the office of a rulini; I'Llder, | fell asleep in Jesus Deem'' | yc lo^'' 1691, and in }•<-" | 84''! year of his age. I'^klcr CusH.MAN came to I'lynioulh in the "Fortune,"' in 1621. He was l)roiiglU uj) and educated in the family of (""lovernor DracU'ord, and was always his intimate and confi- dential friend. He servetl the chiuxh of Plymouth as Ruling Elder nearly 43 vears, having lieen chosen April 6, 1649. His gravestone is on the southerly brow of the Hill in a beautiful locality commanding a full view of the harbor of Plymouth as well as the town, the green hills in the distance, and of the "Meeting House," where, for over seventy years he had prayed and worshipped. Tiiis gravestone was erected bv the church in 171 5, iwenty-tivc years after his death, and is a plain slab of mica slate, probably imported from England. It is in a good state of preservation, and the in- scription is still distinct and legible. His wife was Mary, daughter of Isaac Allerton, who came over in the ".Mavtlowcr" the ])revious year. Soon after his marriage he removed to "Rockv Xook" in Kingston, (then Plvniouth I. 'I"he locality of his house has often been visited by antiquarians and others interested in early Colonial matters. There is a famous spring of excellent water near his resi- dence, that has received the title of "Elder Spring," near the railroad on land now owned by .Mr. Samuel P. Cole in Kingston. .\t the grave of Elder Cushman is a signboard of recent date, directing the visitors to the grounds to the grave of one of the most noted of the old Pilgrims. The grave of | Eld. THOMAS CUSHMAN | Died | Dec. lo, 1 69 1. CUSHMAN MONUMENT. On the 15th of August, 1S515, the descendants of the Cushman ancestors and their relatives, met together to Plymouth, in honor of their venerated ancestors, Robert Cushman, the right hand of the Plymouth forefathers, and Elder Thomas Cushman, his son, who for about forty-three years acceptably served the church of the Pdgrinis as Ruling Elder. On the following day the persons assembled from almost every State in the Union, visited the grave of their ancestor, the Elder, and before ]jarting resolved to erect an enduring nuMiument over the remains of this venerable man. This object was subsequently consummated ; and on the i6th of September, 1S5S, in commemoration of the sailing of the Mayflower from I'lymouth, iii England, for the new home in New iMigland, the monument was consecrated with becoming exercises and ceremonies. The Cushman monument stands in a conspicuous j^osition within the ancient ceme- tery of the Plymouth fatiiers, upon ISurying Hill, within sight of the hospitable har- bor where the .Mavtlower lav safely moored in the inclement winter of 1620; and also, of the far-famed solitary rock of that sandy shore whereon tb.e forefathers first set foot on the memorable twenty-first of December, and almost beneath the drippings of the first Christian sanctuary in New luigland. The monument is a massive and tasteful structure, built of smoothly hewn '^)uincy granite, of the finest and inost fhnable quality, and is highly creditable to the skill and faithfulness of Messrs. C. R. & C. M itchell, the contractors. Its form is that of an obelisk with plainly chamfered edges, having a Crecian base standing upon an orna- mented pedestal, also chamfered to its base, and containing simken panels; the pedes- tal rests ujwn two square plinths, and the whole structure ujion blocks of hewn gran- ite occupying the whole space enclo-sed by a quadrangular fence, constructed with large stone ])osts and substantial iron rails. The whole height of the monument, in- cluding the stone blocks on which it stands, is about iwenty-sevcn and one-half feel; llie base of the pedestal is about five feet square, and of the lowest ])linth about eight feet. The space within the railing is about twelve feet square. The tablets, which contain the inscriptions in raised letters, occupy the four panels of the pedestal, EPITAPHS I-'ROM BURIAL HILL. and measure about thirty-six by twenty-two inches. They are of metallic bronze, and were cast at the foundry of Messrs. Henry N. Hooper & Co., in Boston. The following are the inscriptions on the tablets: — (PVont or East .Side.)

It is said In- sonic elderly persons that the gravestone of Mr. Bartlett was the fust placed on liinial Hill, although by the records he died subsequent to Edward (rrav. He was son of Joseph and Hannah (Fallowell) ISartlett, who was son of Robert Bartlett, a passenger in the Ann, in 1663, by Mary, a daughter of Richard Warren. II.

Major William Bradford, son of the Governor, early obtained high distinction in the (Jolony, having been elected an Assistant and chief military commander soon after the decease of his father. He was a Major in the army, and was an active officer in King Philip's war. When the colonial govenmient terminated, in 1692, he became Deputy Governor, and afterward a Counsellor <:>f Massachusetts. He had fifteen children, nine sons and six daughters. The late Ebenezer Cobb of Kingston, who lived to the remarkable age of loS years, well remembered the funeral of Deputy Governor Bradford. The public road between Kingstcjn and Plymouth was obstructed by deep snow, and the corpse was carried from his familv residence near Jones' River, along the seashore, it l)eing the expressed desire of the deceased to be buried near the body of his father. His tombstone indicates the spot where the Governor was prol^ably buried, the father lying on the east side of the son, while Joseph lies in another row, northerly. 12.

The crew were carried to Boston as i)risoners of war. Dr. LeBaron came to Pl\ mouth, and having performed a surgical operation, the selectmen petitioned the executive, Lt. Governor Stoughton, for his liberation, that he might settle in that town. This was granted; and he married Mary Wilder, and practised medicine in Plymouth, where he died at the age of 36 years. His religion was Roman Catholic. He made a donation of ninety acres of wood land to the town. He had a son, Lazarus, who was a physician in Plymouth for a long time.

It lias been related, that the Elder has often l)cen heard to say that for this education he should have reason to lilessGodto all eternity.

IN MEMORY (3F SEVENTY TWO SEAMEN, WHO I'KRISHEl) IN PLYMOUTH HAR 150R ON THE 26f'i & 27th OF DECEAHU^R 1 778, ON BOARD THE I'RIVATE ARMED BRIG GENERAL ARNOLD OF TWEN- TY GUNS NUMBERING IN OFFICERS AND CREW ONE HUNDRED AND SIX PERSONS IN ALL, JAMES MAGEE OF BOSTON C(^MMANDER, SIXTY OF WHOM WERE BURIED ON THIS SPOT, AND TWELVE IN OTHER PARTS OF THE HILL. The inhabitants of Piynioath were calleti to witness a most distressing catastrophe in the month of December, 177S, of whicli the following is a reliable account as pnb lished in the Boston Gazette, June 4, 1779: '•On Friday, the 25th ult , at six a. m., the wind to the westward, sailed from this port the brig General Arnold, James Magee, commander; and about meridian the wind chopped round to north-east, and looking likely for a gale, they thought best to put into Plymouth, and came to anchor in a place called the Cow-yard. On Saturday, the gale increasing, she started from her anchor and struck on the White Flat. They then cut both cable and masts away, in hojjes to drive over; but she immediately bilged; it being low water, left her quarter-deck dry, where all hands got for relief. A schooner lying within hail heard their cries, but could not assist them. On Sunday the inhabitants were cutting ice most of the day before they got on board, when they saw seventy-five of the men had perished, and thirty-four very much frozen, which they got on shore and on Monday they got on shore and buried the dead. Great part of her stores, etc., will be saved. Some evil-minded jjersons have raised a report that she was plundered by the inhabitants, which is entirely false, as they Ijchaved with the greatest humanity. The following are the persons taken off the wreck of the General Arnold, that survived \.\\q ship-wreck: Capt. James Magee, John Steel, Jotham Haughton, George Piisl)ury, Peter Moorfield, Robert Hinman, Dennis Flin, Thomas Farmer, — Stevens, John Bubbev, James Hutchinson, Andrew Kellcv, P'rancis Fires, Daniel English, Robert Mitson, James Kent, — Robertson, James Rughley, of Boston: James Williams, David Williams, Chelsea; (ieorge Chocklev, Bedford; Eleazcr Thaver, — Potter, Providence; Wm. Russell, Vineyard; Abel Willis, Edwaril Bur- gess, Jethro Naughton, — Coffin, — Merchant, William Gardner, — Chajjman, Martha's Vineyard; — Dunham, P'almoulh; Barnabas Lathrop, Barnabas Downs, Jun'r, BarnstaljJe." The inhabitants of Plvmouth provided for the comfort of the survivors in the best ])ossible manner and ministered everything necessary to their restoration, with a ten- derness and social svmpalhy characteristic of our best ]:)eople. On Monday the inhabitants passed over the ice to the wreck. Here was ])resented a scene unutterably awful and distressing. It is scarcely ])ossible for the human mind to conceive of a more appalling spectacle. The ship was sunk ten feet in the sand: the waves had been for about thirty-si.K hours sweeping the main deck; the men had crowded to the C|uarter deck, and even here they were obliged to pile together dead bodies to make room for the living. .Seventy dead bodies, frozen into all im- aginable postures, were strewed over the deck, or attached to the shrouds and s])ars; about thirty exhibited signs of life, but were unconscious whether in life or death. The bodies remained in the posture in which they died; the features dreadfully dis- EPITAPHS FROM BURIAL HILL. 51 torted. Some were erect, some bending forward, some sitting with the head resting on the knees, and some with both arms extended, clinging to the spars or some ])arts of the vessel The dead were piicd on the floor if the Court House, and it is said that Dr. Robbins fainted when called to jjerform the religious services. Among those who perished were IJr. Mann, of Attleborough, and Dr. Sears. Sixty jiersons were buried in one ]iit, on the south west side of the l)urial hill, at which is the above tablet. 473.

It falls to the lot of but few people to leave such a reputation as that of Mr. Watson. IV,' his uprightness of character and uniform dignity of manners, he preserved the respectability of his family to the grave, and we need no better testimonial of departed worth, than to know that his fellow citizens, assembled in town meeting, reconmiended tlic church bell to be tolled three hours on the day of his burial, a suspension of the usual business in the town, the closing of shops and stores, and a display of flags at half-mast on the shipping in the harbor. He was of an ancient and honorable familv and died in a ripe old age. Rev. Dr. Kendall attended his funeral services and l^reached a sermon which was printed. Those who are familiar with North Street in Plymouth, the place of his residence, will call to mind the great pleasure Mr. Watson took in the cultivation of those fine linden trees at the front and rear of his house, and under the shadow of whose limbs, and in the cool refreshing shade of which he spent so many happy hours and days. In person Col Watson was portly and well proportioned, his countenance noble and placid, and his urbanity and courtesy were proverbial. He left three children* Mary who married Elisha Hutchinson Esq., son of Governor Hutchinson of Massa- chusetts, and died in England before her father deceased. Sarah who married Mar- tin Brimmer Esq , a merchant of Boston, and died in August, 1S32. Elizabeth who married Hon. Thomas Russell, a merchant of Boston.

He was a]5pointed Judge of Probate for the county of Norfolk, which office he held ti'l his death. The unbending up- rightness of his conduct in his official capacity, the fidelity with which he discliarged his duties, as well as his ability and gentlemanly l)earing in all the works of life, will Ion" l)e remembered with affectionate respect. He cherished with lively ardor a natu- ral fondness for anticpiity, and so e.xalted was liis veneration for pious ])lanters in New England, who first landed in Plymouth, that he delighted in tracing their every foot- step, and the minutest circumstances of their history were treasured in his mind. He was one of the early members of the Pilgrim .Society, and also one of the earliest members of the Humane Society. "In his friendships he was steady, ardent and sincere; undisguised in his feelings, and removed from the least tincture of duplicity, his bosom was a sacred depository of confidential intercourse. If his prejudices were strong, they were invariably pointed at what he devoutly believed to be profligacy in princijile, or dishonesty in practice. Such in fine was Mr. Lothrop's scrupulous integrity, such his thorough detestation of every species of iniquitous, or even temporizing procedure, that the inscription on the tombstone of his beloved father, would be an appropriate one for his own." — Thach^r.

Hon. Thomas Russeli., was the son of Thumas and Maiv Ann ((loodvvin) Ku^SL■ll, ot Plvnioulh, born Septendsor 26, 1S25. His early home was on Leytlen Street, the first Street of the Pilgrim Fathers, and liere he received his earliest im- pressions of tlie trials and endurance of the founders of New England, and com- menced earlv in life to iionor the histcjry t)f their lives in which he ahvavs took a lively interest. ]''ioni early boyhood he was of a livel v turn of mind, (|uiid<, biight and active, aiul a good scholar, receiving his edn(ation in the excel t nt scliools wliich ids native village afforded; lie entered Harvard College at an e.irl\- age, Irom wlience lie graduated in 1845, with high honors. He studied law at Harvard Law EPrrAi'iis FROM r.URiAi. Tin. I,. School, and in the office of Hon. Jacob II. Loud at Plym'imli, till 1847, when lie became a resident of Boston, and was a member of the Suffolk bir. Although a citizen of another municpiality he never ceased to remember the town of his nativity, and was active in promoting the interests of her citizens, and the historical associa- tions connected with the old mother town. Me was chosen i)resident of the Pilgrim Society in 1S79, to succeed Hon. William T. Davis, and retained that position till his death. He was also instrumental in having inscribed upon the rcjck on Clark's Inland the words, " On the Sabboth day wee rested," in remembrance of the first Sabbath spent on the shore by the Pilgrims. Judge Russell did not i)ractice his chosen profession long, for in 1853, at the early age of 27 years, Governor Houtwell appointed him Judge of the Municipal Court of IJoston, a position which he filled with such general satisfaction that, in 1S59, (jov- crnor Hanks selected him as a proper person for Associate Justice of the Su[)eiior Court, where he remained luitil 1S67. I^ ^^'^^ while he occupied tlic judicial chair of this court tliat he displayed those traits of firmness in his convictions and good judg- ment which were prominent characteristics belonging to him as a m;>gi.>-trate. Among the many good things the judge did while in tlie fearless discharge of his duties was the record he made in putting down g.irrotting in the streets of I'oston. His sentence to the extent of the law was so promptly given that a reign of terror soon followed among all who were disposed to commit crimes of that nature, the in- iluence of which has lasted to the present time. In 1S66 lie resigned his position on the bench to become collector of tlie port of Boston, which position lie held until 187.^, when he resigned, and was soon after appoinied by President Craiit Min- ister Resident at Caracas, Venezuela, where he remained till Mnrcli, 1S7S. In 1S79 he represented Boston in the Massachusetts Legislature, and became an influential and useful memlier of that body. In June, 1S79, he was appointed by Governor Talbot liailroad Commissioner, a position he filled, as chairman of the board, at the time of his death. Besides the foregoing, lie occupied many other ]3ositions of honor and trust. In iS;'8 he was President of the Emigrant Savings Bank, and was an Overseer of Harvard College, a Trustee of the State Reform School and the Nautical School Sh\p, and during the war was a Draft Commissioner, and was intensely loyal to the Union, and always looked after the interests of the soldier, prompt and patriotic in all his acts. Judge Russell was of a kindly disposition, genial temperament, and had many social traits that won for him hosts of friends; of much original wit and humor, a wonderful conversationalist, full of varied information acquired by extensive reading. His humanity was large, and his love of liberty was such that it was not strange that we find him identified with such men as Garrison, Phillips, Andrews, and others in the Anti-Slavery cause, and a leader in the Free Soilers' ranks. Upon the occasion of the visit of General Grant to Plymouth, it was Judge Russell's privilege, as President of the Pilgrim Society, to receive the CJencral, and place in his hand the sword of Captain Myles Standish. lie saw the bright side of life, and enjoyed it. He was, indeed, eminent as spe- cialist, jurist, statesman, and orator. Among his best elfoits as a public orator was the occasion of the obsequies of General Grant, August 8, 1SS5, by Post 76, G. A. R. "which was an eloquent, appropriate and fitting eulogy upon tiie great Chieftain." His last public address was upon the occasion of the Anniversary of the Pilgrim Societv at a dinner at whicli Hon. James Russell Lowell was present, December 21. 1S85. He was a member of Mt. Lebanon Lodge, A. F. and A.M., Boston, and had 2^2 EriTAl HS I'ROM BURIAL HILL. spokeii at a great many asseniblies, and wns well known in political, judicial and social circles of Boston, as well as thrdugliout the .'^tnte. His death took place Feb- riKirv 9, 1SS7, at his In nie, 20 Ilanock Street, in ISoston, and in accordance with his oft rti)eated desire to be burietl on ISurial Hill, his request was granted. B.

A few feet distant from the Judge Russell monument to the eastward may be seen the white marble obelisk erected several years since to commemorate the memory of GOVERNOR VVn.- LIAM Bradford, the second Governor of Plymouth Colony. This shaft is about eight feet in height, and is situated in a most prominent position on the hill, commanding a full view of the town below, the harbor and the bay. and has become a central attraction for many thousands of visitors to the resting place of the jjilgrims. EPITAPHS FROM BURIAL HILL. 293 Here multitudes have gathered under the shadows of the beautiful elm and larch trees, and lingered to contemjilatc iji their minds the wintry scenes of 1620. This is the central point of interest on the hill. (See No. i, page i.) From this last monument, following the path northerly on the right, we read the names of Bradford, Barnes, Bartlett, Cooper, Dotex, Holmes, Sampson, Siiurtleff and Sylves- ter, while those on the left are BRADFORD, CoPB, Jackson, Morton, Rickard, Trip.p.le and Wetherell. The last named is enclosed by an iron fence and is near to the main path. At the junction of the main path with the north path leading to the westerly entrance of the ground may be seen a solid granite monument about 5 feet high, on the front of which is a panel in bronze commemorating the memor}^ of one of Ply- mouth's late well-known physicians, Dr. Zacheus Bartlett. (See No. 1415, page 185.) In the Morton enclosure, on the north-easterly slope of the hill is a marble monument 4 feet high, having on the same, neatly cut, a chain in a circle, with "Parted Below, United Above." (See No. 1833, page 240.) At the northerly end of the main path is a double base gran- ite monument, having an octagon shaft about ten feet in height, on which are the names of Churchill and CURRIER. (See No. 2119, page 273.) In a wooden fence enclosure in the northeast section, on a polished granite block, is the name of ELLIS D. B.\RNES. (See No. 2194, page 283.) At the extreme north part of the hill may be found the fol- lowing names : Barnes.

This lot belongs to the well-known family of John T. Hall, late a merchant of Plymouth. (See No. 2 173, page 279.) A short distance north of the IIall lot is a large slate stone, 5x2;. feet, to the memory of Capt. Joseph Church- ill, who was lost at sea in 1836. This is a finely executed representation of a brig at sea in a storm in bass-relief.

To the west a few feet is a granite block, on which rests a thick marble tablet 412 feet high, on the top of which is "Wnrr- TEN." On the north summit of the hill cast of the main path is a fine specimen of slate-stone cutting on the tablet, 30x48, of 1\ ICHARD Flsher, consisting of three willows, the centre s[)reading two others, representing three arms. (Sec No. 1227, page 154.) On the left hind of the path leading from the Dr. l^.irllett monument to the Russell street entrance, are the following graves in their order, viz: Lucas, Gc)(lr)^L\N, BOU'IELLK, DEA- CON, Holmes, Dlmon, Gammon, Finney, Johnson, Hol.mes and Farmer. In the northeast section of the hill, on the easterly slope, is a group of names of the COLLINGWOOD famil\% a name well known for their faithful service in the cause of their countr\' in the re- bellion of 1 86 1. There are three polished granite blocks in the lot. (See No. 219, page 2S3, also memorial list, page 290.) Near to this last lot is the B.\RNES enclosure, with a wood fence. In it is a granite block with "Will" upon the same. The Perry lot, with iron rail and granite posts, is near to the Barnes lot above named. EPITAPHS FROM BURIAL MILL. 295 The grave of Cait. Joseph livRTLElT is also enclosed like the last. The Brown family has some fine slate stones at the north end of the main path, with engravings of a sarcoi)Iiagus on the same. The Rn'EEV family grave is at the junction of the main path with the path leading to the west. Here are some interesting carvings on large slate stones. Adjoining the last named are the graves of ICHABOD Shaw's family. Near the above mentioned lot on the cast, and near the path leading to School street, is the f/ G()OD\VL\ To^HJ, a large thick marble slab sup[)ortcd by six square freestone columns.

To the east of the main path is the white granite monument of the ROBBINS family, 12 feet high, enclosed by a rustic iron fence, on the gateway of which is "L. T. Rorrlms, 1859." Southeast of the last lot, on the easterly brow of the hill, is an enclosure with granite curbings and corners, belonging to one of the BarTLETT family. To the southeast of the Rob- bins monument is a lot enclosed by a rustic iron fence, repre- sented by another of the Bari - LETT family. On the east of the main path is the marble tablet of Rev.

In the rear of the Bugbee lot, to the west, is a low wooden fence, enclosing some pink marble tablets of the Nicholas and Ani;()r Drew families. (See No. 152, page 20, and 2140, page 276.) West of the Drew ground is a Jackson lot enclosed with an iron fence, pointed palings. The lot of Solomon Richmond joins the Drew lot, in the western part of the hill, and has a wooden rail fence. (See No. 1 530, page 201.) Another lot in the west part of tlie hill is the lot of JoilN T. and VVooDWoirrii Jackson, enclosed with an iron fence. (See No. I [38, page 140, and No. I 180, page 146.) Near the latter, to the east, is a lot enclosed by a wood fence, the family lot of Jacor Jackson. In this lot is a large marble slab supported on columns, antl several names on the same. (See No. 1807, page 237, and No. 1574, page 207.) In the westerly portion of the hill and directly south of the last named Jackson lot is the monument erected to mark the spot where sixt^'- of the crew of Brig General Arnold were buried, known as the "Macee Monument," after the name of the captain of the lost brig. It is a marble shaft on a granite base enclosed within a rail, and granite posts. (See No. 472, page 50.) EPITArilS FROM BURIAL IIILR 303 mum':' niv ■■■■"' ';;)/r';-/^ ■/:"';'»' MAGEE MONITISIKXT.

Next to the last named, south-west, is the David Warren lot, with iron posts at the cor- ners connected by chains. (See No. 804, page 92.) In the central portion of the west end of the hill is a pecu- liar shaped slate-stone erected to mark the spot where An- drew Farrell, captain and owner of the ship "Hibernia," with five other seamen, were buried. They were wrecked on Plymouth Beach, Jan. 28, 1805. (See No. 884, page 104.) In the west section of the hill are the family lots and graves of many of the well- known citizens of the town, among whom are the Brad- ford, Cornish, Cotton, Davis, Drew, Harlow, Jack- son, Paty, Washburn and Weston names.

Among the earliest gravestones on the hill is that of EDWARD Gray, 1681, which has been sup- posed to be the oldest; but the late Dr. Nathaniel Lothrop is said to have information from an aged relative by which it appears that the stone of JoSEl'H BarTLET'I", who died in 1703, was the earliest placed there, and that Mr. Gray's was erected at a later date. The accotnpanying engraving is a cor- rect copy of the grave-stone of Mr. Bartlett, situated on the top of the hill, a short distance west of the head of the main path as one ascends from the church, and near to the grave of Rev. Dr. Kendall. (See No. 10, page 7.) BARTLETT UKAVE-STONE.

We present to our readers on the two following pages some of the grave-stones of the Bradford family. The oldest is that of Jo-SEPH Bradford, the youngest son of Governor William and Alice (South- worth) Bradford, born in 1630, and was a resident of what was well known as "Flat House Dock," about one-half a mile from the mouth of Jones River, and known as Kingston. He lies buried quite near his father, on the top of the hill, in immediate proximity to others of the same name. The name of Bradford has always been an honored one, and the various branches are widely scattered throughout this country. The principal seat of the family was in Plymouth in colonial days, and also at Plympton, Kingston and Duxbury. In later days they are found in Maine, Rhode Island and all other sections of the United Sates. While the descendants of Gov. Bradford have been numer- ous, they have also occupied prominent public positions of honor and trust. They have been among our Governors, Mem- bers of Congress, Officers in the Revolutionary Army, as well as in the ranks of the Militia. Hon. Alden Bradford, the late Secretary of Massachusetts, and author, was a descendant from Duxbury, and Governor William Bradford, of Bristol, R. I., was a descendant from Plympton, formerly the west precinct of Ply- mouth. He married, April, 1751, Mary Leiiaron, daughter of Dr. Lazarus and Lydia (Bartlett) LeBaron, of Ply- mouth. The LeBaron Bradfords mentioned on the grave- stone accompanying this article were respectively son and grandson of Gov. William Bradford, of Bris- tol, and lie buried at the west section of the hill, near to the Davis graves. NATHANIEL BRADFORD GRAVE-STONE.

There is an old Mulberry tree on the premises, however, said to have been planted during the occupancy of William Brewster, afterwards known as "Elder" Brewster in the new colony of Plymouth, America. It has been well settled that this place was where the early meetings of the Pilgrims were held, and it is appropriate that mention should be made of the P2ng- lish homes, as well as their *i'' last resting place here.

Those who have made an annual pilgrimage to Plymouth of late years have missed the genial and kind- hcarted "Old Sexton." He no longer can be seen at the entrance of the church door, tolling the bell, nor travelling among the graves of those he long since laid away. His name was Clement Bates, a native of Hanover, Mass., born Oct. 4, 1792. He was the son of Clement and Rebecca (Stetson) Bates, and died July 13, 1885, at the age of nearly 93 years. Mr. Bates came to Plymouth in 1S09, and previous to 1 83 1 worked at the trade of caulker and graver. In that year he was chosen sexton of the P"irst Parish and of the town, to which ^ which position he was annually cho- sen to the year 1883, when he re- signed. His duties have been to ring the church bells daily, and to bury the dead. And it is said he has buried 3250 persons, equal to about one-half the present population of the town. He rang the bell four times a day, besides those for church services on the Sabbath, for funerals and for fire alarms for fifty-two years, without a failure and only two mistakes. His mental and physical faculties he retained to an unusual degree till his death, and his memory of occurrences was clear and reliable. In early life he was quite ah athlete, of jovial disposition and fond of jokes, besides being a good story teller, of cheerful tempera- ment, loved and respected by all. We can almost see him, with bowed form and leaning on his cane, making his way around the town at a rapid pace. Gen. James Warren was the son of James and Penelope (Winslow) Warren, born in Plymouth, Mass., 1726. He descended from Richard Warren, one of the earliest settlers of CLEMENT BATES. EPITAPHS FROM BURIAL HILL. 309 Plymouth; graduated at Harvard College in 1745, and became a merchant. In 1757 he succeeded his father as high sheriff, which ofTicc he retained till the Revolution. In 1766 he was a member of the General Court from Plymouth. He is said to have been the originator of the plan for establishing "committees of correspondence" in the various towns and cities. In 1775 he be- came a member of the Provincial Congress, and upon the death of Gen. Joseph Warren he was appointed President of that body. While the army was at Cambridge he was chosen Paymaster General. In 1776 he was appointed Major General of the Mass- achusetts Militia. In 1780 he was elected Lieutenant-Governor under Hancock, but declined to serve. He was for several years Speaker of the House of Representatives. He was ap- pointed to the office of Judge of the Supreme Court, which he declined. He served as Commissioner of the Navy Board for some time. At the close of the war he retired from public life, in order that he might enjoy the ease of domestic life, and be- came interested in agricultural pursuits. He was soon called from private life to serve in the councils of the government. For some years he resided at the Gov. Hutchinson seat at Milton, but returned to his native town, where he resided till his decease, Nov. 28, 1808. His residence was at the corner of Main and North streets, in the house now standing. Pie mar- ried Mercy, the daughter of Hon. James and Mary (Allyne) Otis, of Barnstable, Mass, She was a sister of the patriot and orator. Mrs. W^arren was the author of a "History of the War." She died Oct. 19, 1814, at the age of 86 years. James, son of the above, was for several years postmaster of Plymouth, and was with Paul Jones in the "Bon Homme-Richard," and lost a limb in one of the battles. He was buried in the grave with his father; and Henry was collector of the port of Plymouth, and died July 6, 1828, aged sixty-four years. Gex.

Dr. James Kendall was the youngest son of Major James and Elizabeth (Mason) Kendall; born in Sterling, Mass., Nov. 3, 1769. After the usual preparation for college, he en- tered Harvard College in 1792, and graduated with high honor in 1796. On leaving college he passed two years at Phillips Academy, Andover, Mass., as assistant teacher, at the same time pursuing his theological studies under the direction of Rev. Dr. Tappan, then Professor of Divinity at Harvard College, and with Rev. Jonathan French. He receiv^ed approbation to preach from the Andover Association in 1795. In that year he was chosen tutor of Greek in the college, and removed to Cam- 3IO EPITAPHS FROM BURIAL HILL. bridge, continuing his theological studies at the same time. He first preached at Plymouth as a candidate in October, 1799, and was ordained as pastor of the First Church of Plymouth Janu- ary I, 1800, Rev. Jonathan French of Andover preaching the installation scrmos. Here he continued his labors of love for thirty-eight years alone, till 1838, when Rev. George \V. Briggs, a graduate of Brown University, was settled as colleague pas- tor, and remained as such till 1852, he continuing to preach in his own pulpit and others in the neighboring towns. He died March 17, 1859, in the ninetieth year of his age. His funeral sermon was preached by his former colleague. Rev. Dr. Briggs, then of Salem, Mass. Dr. Kendall married Sarah, daughter of Dea Daniel Poor, of Andover, Mass., by whom he had six children. (See No. i82g, page 240.) Dr. James Tiiacher, the late eminent surgeon and phy- sician of Plymouth, was the son of John and Content (Norton) Thacher, and was born in Barn- stable, Mass., in 1754. At an early date he began to devote his attention to medicine, and studied the profession with Dr. Abner Hersey, a very cele- brated physician of Barnstable. Upon arriving at the age of 2 1 years Dr. Thacher was appoint- ed by the Provincial Congress a surgeon in the Revolutionary army, and in Jul\', 1775, com- menced the active duties inci- dent to hospital life, at Cam- bridge. He was afterwards at Albany and West Point, N. Y., and was j^resent at the execu- tion of Benedict Arnold for jf, treason. He was also present ^'^' at the surrender of Lord Corn- wallis, Oct. 19, 1780. In 1824 he published a journal of events occurring while he was in the army. At the termination of the war he settled in Plymouth as surgeon and physician, where he enjoyed the entire confidence of his fellow-citizens, and was eminently successful in his practice. He devoted a great deal of time to antiquarian researches, and was a member of several literary societies. He was an active member of the Pilgrim afterwdrds for manyyeai a practising physician inthecDunl/ of Plymouth the author of sevEwl hisTorical, and scientific worl'-'nr\,--\ ,. y./,(,Al, Length and in U.e bound- ^^^W^^'^^^-W^ less opportunities of his country, such as Walt Whitman would describe — the late Edward W. Watson of Clark's Is- land might have been the model. In him nature was every- thing, art and literature but accidents ; and it made little differ- ence that he had been all his days occupied with the sim- ple pursuits and the narrow vicissitudes of a sea-side farmer and countryman, living within sight of Plymouth Rock. He was at home there, but so he would have been anywhere in the world, if sea room, open air, the key of the fields and the companion- ship of his fellowmen were allowed him. He was a Homeric person without the Homeric proclivity to fight and steal ; and I have seen him slay and apportion a lamb as deftly and gravely as Agamemnon or any of his confederate chieftains. It was good, also, to see him walk barefoot, like an old Greek, along the ooze and into the foam of the sea, tending his boat or bringing his freight or passengers on shore when the tide was low. Such comrnon acts he did with an apostolic and joyous unconcern, quite ignoring the modern refinements of costume and attitude — stepping from boat to boat as his friend Thoreau says of a very different person, ' with a divine ease and sureness.' Yet no fine gentleman was less embarassed in good society than he — having been so long accustomed to the best society — that of his own family traditions, clear thoughts and generous purposes. The respect he won was like that the Highlander expressed when he said of his chief, 'Wherever the MacDonald sits is the head 314 EPITAl'IIS FROM P.URIAL IIIIJ,. of the tabic' If, novv-and-then, a city lady eyed him askance, and questioned in her conv^entional mind the apparent propriety of his coat and shoes, it was soon revealed to her that this was a gentleman of such great courtesy that he might wear what he pleased without criticism. The homeliest surroundings were idol- ized by his romantic presence, and his island became a place where life, amid many inconveniences, took on an enchanted, charming aspect, for old and young. " There blows the clover summer-long, There figs grow ripe and full, In orchards ring the robin's song, The grapes climb up the wall ; The lily springs to deck the bride, The melon creeps to see ; The slumbrous poppy nods beside The whispering poplar tree. The gleaming water, day and night, Flashes along the shore. And out beyond the double-light Swells ocean's heavy roar. The breezy hill is white with sheep. The fields are green with corn — But never deem the enchantment deep Was of these beauties born. Nor yet, though more endeared than these. Was all the charm from thee, Old friend, that walked amidst thy trees As stately and as free. For thee that sweet enchantment found, Though lord of isle and stream; Thee, too, did magic walls surround, Thy life a gentls dream. With joy, with thee, we hailed the spot Where sorrow never dwelt, Where all things ill were soon forgot. And only b'iss was fejt. We heard thy wise and laughing words, Thou lord of isle and stream, Mixt with the music of the birds. Fresh breeze and sunny beam. Now sadly ]iarting from the strand In thy delaying boat, We bid farewell with voice and hand To thee returning not. No more on this brief voyage bnuid. Thou sail'st a brighter wave Than thine, which, sighing, circles round The stillness of thv grave. "Such a life as Edward W. Watson's, without being unfaith- ful to any duty, and with no conspicuous greatness or success, was like a long poem of fourscore stanzas — each quatrain a re- volving year, in which winter rhymed with summer and spring with autumn in a pleasing melod}-, now l\'ric, now id\'llic, now pastoral, and sometimes grave and diadatic, but always with a EPITAPHS FROM BURIAL HILL, 315 genial moral. Wordsworth, in his 'iVlathcw' and in other sketches, has tried to describe such men. But they do not come to full maturity in h^ngland, I suppose, lacking the per- fect freedom and unconstraint of our American country life. 'Much dotli nature's love excel To the souls that never fell, To swains that live in happiness, And do well because they please. Who walk in ways that are unfamed, And feats achieve before they're named.' "Living thus embosomed in poetry and on the most friendly terms with nature in all her aspects, it was natural that he should write verses — but they had less merit than his most casual remark, which was sure to be worth remembering. It was true of him as of that friend of his who said — 'My life has been the poem I would have writ, But I could not both live and utter it.' "What he wrote was sometimes printed, and if collected in a volume would pleasantly remind us of the writer, especial]}- if along with thcni should be presented his handsome portrait, adorned with thick white hair. He was not so remarkable in appearance as his neighbor on the mainland, Daniel Webster, who used to come sailing down to Marshfield into the waters where Mr. Watson bore sway; but he was a more wholesome, buoyant and attractive person, and one who lived on better terms with himself; renouncing wealth and ambition, and con- tenting himself with the sovereignty of his own island and its waters, and the companionship of his friends. But better than anything that he wrote would be his daily conversation, if that could be preserved as the table-talk of more famous men have been. He talked as the birds sing and the breezes blow — with- out forethought or restraint, and with all the freshness of boy- hood, while he uttered the mellow wisdom of age. But why strive longer to describe the indescribable? for such was he. ' Thou soul of God's best earthlv mould, Thou happy soul! and can it be That these three words of glittering gold Are all that must remain of thee?' " 3i8 INDEX.
