hither again; which made him take a more particular leave than otherwise he would have done. Sixth day, Nov. 10, 1699. Mr. Danforth is entombed about 1/4 of an hour before 4 P. M. Very fair and pleasant day; much company. Bearers: on the right side, Lt-Governor, Mr. Russell, Sewall; left side, Mr. W. Winthrop, Mr. Cook, Col. Phillips. I helped lift the corpse into the tomb, carrying the feet.

Their names should be in perpetual remembrance.

ndicated by a vote, March 10, 1700-1, that Mrs. Hannah Gookin should be paid three pounds, to pay the rent of her house this present year. The account is fittingly closed by the record under date of May 15, 1702: Voted, that the selectmen take care that Mrs. Hannah Gookin be decently buried at the charge of the inhabitants belonging to this meeting-house, and the charge of said funeral be added to the town rate granted this year.

C. 1680, Tutor and Fellow of the College 1692, one of the first two on whom the College conferred the degree of Bachelor of Divinity, 1692, who had supplied the pulpit occasionally since Mr. Gookin's death and constantly since March 25, 1696, was ordained pastor of the church Nov. 25, 1696. From this time a regular church record was made, which has been preserved in good condition. At the commencement of this record, Mr. Brattle says he succeeded the Rev.

It is certain that the witnesses of his will (dated Oct. 5, 1693, and proved May 28, 1698), were John Leverett, H. C. 1680, William Brattle, H. C. 1680, Isaac Chauncy, H.

This fact justifies the presumption that he did not regard them as persecutors, and that they did not consider him to be an arch heretic. Early in 1692, a strange infatuation seized the inhabitants of Salem village, and soon spread widely. It was imagined that Satan was making a deadly assault on men through the intervention of witches. I do not propose to enter upon the general history of that tragedy; The mischief began at Salem in February; but it soon extended into various parts of the Colony. The conatgion, however, was principally

Our Latin Schoolmaster is Mr. Elijah Corlitt; his scholars are in number nine at present. Middlesex Court Files, 1860. Under all these discouragements, the veteran teacher seems to have persevered bravely up to the close of his life; for there is no evidence that a successor was elected until after his death.

Corlett, Elijah, the famous schoolmaster, educated at Lincoln College, Oxford, had charge of the Grammar School here, for nearly half a century, and trained up many of English, American, and Indian birth, for admission to the College. This school he had taught so long before 1643, that he had, according to Johnson, very well approved himself for his abilities, dexterity, and painfulness, in teaching and education of the youths under him; and he remained in office until 1680, and probably until his death. His fame extended through the colony; and Mather, in his Magnolia, refers to him as that memorable old schoolmaster in Cambridge, from whose education our college and country has received so many of its worthy men, that he is himself worthy to have his name celebrated, etc. He resided on the easterly side of Dunster Street, between Mt. Auburn and Winthrop streets. By his w. Barbara (who was sister to Richard Cutter), he had Rebecca, b. 14 Aug. 1644, prob. d.
