He seems, however, not to have been very obnoxious to the new to the government, for 20 Ap. 1689, it was ordered, that Mr. Francis Foxcroft be released from his present imprisonment, and be confined to the house of Thomas Danforth, Esq., in Cambridge, for one week's time, and that then he be set at liberty, unless anything appear to be objected against him, in the mean time. He was elected Representative for Dunstable, though residing in Boston, 1693. He was Judge of the Common Pleas, 1707-1719, and Judge of Probate, 1708-1725. His character is briefly but graphically delineated by Tutor Flint, in the preface to the funeral sermon delivered by Rev. Dr. Appleton. He was a gentleman by birth, of a worthy family in the north of England, where he had a good school education. He was bred a merchant, and was very expert and skilful, as well as very just and upright in all his business.

He was elected President of Harvard College 28 Oct. 1707, was inaugurated on the 14th of the succeeding January, and performed the duties of that office with distinguished honor to himself and advantage to the institution, until 3 May 1724, when he was found dead in his bed, having apparently deceased without a struggle. A bill for professional services rendered by Dr. Henry Hooper (who resided at the westerly corner of Brattle and Appleton streets) is preserved in the Library of the New England Hist. Gen. Society. If it does not throw any light on the cause of President Leverett's death, it indicates the manner of medical practice a hundred and fifty years ago:—

mies of the Confederacy. He was born in Abbeville district, September 22, 1836, a son of Capt. Thomas Parker, who commanded the Abbeville volunteers in the last Florida war, and Eleanor Legare Frost, and grandson of Thomas Parker, first United States district attorney of South Carolina after the Revolution. He is also a grandson of William Henry Drayton, chief justice of South Carolina, and is a lineal descendant on the maternal side of Rev. Dr. Francis LeJau, rector of Goose Creek church, 1707-17. His family has been identified with the history of the State from colonial times. He was graduated at the South Carolina military academy in 1855, and in 1858 was graduated in medicine by the medical college of the State of South Carolina, at Charleston, having studied in the office of his uncle, the late Prof. Henry R. Frost. After his graduation he was elected one of the house physicians of the Roper hospital, April, 1888, and during the terrible epidemic of yellow fever which immedi
