The Frenc ANCIENT CRAVEYARD liams and Rev. Zsbulon In the year 1814, Rev. Timothy Al- d@en pubiished “A Collection of A{n.fl- @an Epitaphs,” having for its frontis- Diece a sieel engraving of a melan choly gentleman in black, seated be- side an aggressively Gothic church (underneath a weeping willow), con- templating with a certain gloomy sat- isfaction a variety of tombatones,writes F. P. in the Hartford Courant. The book is an odd and by no means un- interesting work, of considerable value the antiquarian and genealogist. Mr. Alden was, however a Harvard man, and a Connecticut reader cannot prominence ‘wihich Massachusetts not fail to be impressed with the prominence which Massachusetts sraveyards are given in rison with the burial places of neighbor- ing states. For e, only three of the graves at Lebanon, Conn.. are mentioned—those of Rev. Jacob Fiteh, Andrew, Alden and Governor Trumbull the younger. Surely, even at the somerhat remote date of Mr. Alden ication, the old burial ground/it Lebanon must have exhibit- ed on its monuments the names of mare men of distinction than this col- lector of“epitaphs usually found in one t_ A pilgrimage thither last summer had fer its object not the catafosuing of all of these, but merely the tocation and imspection of the &rayes and monuments of two pasto: of the Lebanon chureh.

Very posstbly this epitaph and that of Dr. Williams' distinguished half- brother Elisha, sokfer, statesman. and ‘rector” eor president of Yamle college, who is buried in Weth 14, were composed by the same euloglst, for the two bear striking points of resem- blance i style and phraseology. Doubtless the men, oo, were much alike, though_the life of this early president of Yale embraced a larger experience in things of this world than fell to the lot of his younger brother. ogian of His Time. lite of over half a century fh the years preceding the Declaration of Independence was by no means devold of ipterest and even excitement, particularly in Lebanon, the center of much poltical and theo- logical aetivity. Dr. Willlams was one of the most distingulshed men and foremost theologians of his time. The mysterious logic of the half-way cove nant, the exact meaning eof “Argini- anism,” tbe schisms of the Great Awakening were clear to _him. When his brother Elisha was ~called to Ehgland and for that reason forced to abandon & contrevery With Jona- than Edwsrds dealing with the quali- ficatiens for communion, Dr. Williams took up his brother’s cudgels and fin- isheld the contest, doubtless triumph- antly in his own estimation, perhaps actualiy so. It is rather frultless to argue these questions now. How far away they seem and how strange to argue them so strenuously! But, if Dr. Williams was at times a comtro- versialist, it is pleasant to know that he was a champion of the broader doctrines. It is said that he “received | to cemmunion who effered them- selves, without a refation of their ex- perience, provided they be of sound knowledge in religion and a conversa- on free from scanda New Nation in the Making, And in the vears of his ministry a new nation was in the making. At ored and beloved pastor. he n 17 Py his quiet parsonage he must have heard the tales the early explorers brought back of the great country wars came on. Louisburg was taken. Quebeec fell—(and he preached a sermon om the occasion.) His friend and parish- iomer, Trumbull, became governer of the oolony. The stamp act was im- posed. Toward the emd of his life public events meved swiftly, Un- doubtedly he was present at many conferences in the Trumbull store that later became’the revolutionary “W Office’—conferences at which were present men whese names are famous in the history of the country. But it is agreeable alse te picture those more intimate talks between the governor of Connecticut and his elder paster, whose son William —soon to be dele- gate trom Cgnnecticut to ‘the Centi- nental cong: had married Govern- or nbull’s hter Mary. Dr. Wiltianws did not live to know of the Declaration of Indesendesce of whioh his son was or. But the news of Lexington ncord, the story of the good ageount some of hs meigh- bors among rs gave of themselves at Buniter Hill, must have thrilled the heart of such an ardent patriot az he was, and the last mention of him, Gar- ing his lifetime, in the records of his Burial Flace of Men of National Frominence in th= Early Days — Headstone Eiographies — Dr. Solomon Wil. S8 "LEBA 22)a Ll OF LEBANON. Ely. ecclesiastical society, is his request that five pounds out of his last vear's salary be given toward the public ex- pense “in defense of our rights and properties.”” He died just before mid- night February 2§, 1776, a wise, kindly, and beloved man. His brownstone monument, now stained and weather- weorn. had not been long in its place when the French alliance was made and the regiments of Louis XVI. came marching across from Rhode Island to their winter quarters at Lebanon, or, in the following spring, to join the army on the Hudson. Very probably some of them. at least, en- tered the town by the neighborin highway, and the white uniforms an the lilies of France streamed past within sight of tHe old minister’ grave, for it lles near the road. It was a stirring time for Lebanon—that winter of the French eccupation. - Vivid Word cture. Duke de Lauzun was in cemmand of the hussars that were encamped on the village green. Of his sojourn in the town Donald G. Mitchell has drawn a vivid picture in words that were quot- ed by Dr. Leonard W_Bacon in a Lebanon address, and that will bear reprinting. “And what a contrast it is,” he “writes, “thls gay nobleman, carved out, as It were, from the & selute age of Leuis XV. who had sauntered under the colonnades of the Trianon, and had kissed the hand of padeur new strutting among d dames of Norwich and of How they must have looked at him and his fine troopers from un- der their knitted heods! There is a life written of Governor Trum- bull. and there is a life written of the Marquis of Lauzun. The first is full of deeds of quiet heroism, ending with a tranquil and triumphant death: the other is full of the rankest gallantries, an@ emds with a little spurt of blood under the knife of the guillotine upon the gay Place de la Concorde.” Rev. Zebulon Ely. But we are wandering from our epi- taphs, and just to the north of the Trumbull tomb s anothar stone that interests us. The Rev. Zebulon Ely did not die soon eneugh to enable his epitaph to become a candidate for Mr. Alden's collection . Indesd, he was still preaching in the Lebanon church, where after the lapse of a few years he succeeded Dr. Williams, when Mr. Alden visited the town. His marble headstone Informs us that he died, November 28, 1824, in the sixty-sixth year of his age and the forty-third of his ministry. Beeide his grave is that of Sarah Apame Mills, who, as the In- scription testifies, Dacame his wife and the bl d mother of his twelve chil- dren” “After his decease” her api- taph continues,'she remained a widow indezd.” If Mr. Ely's epitaph were the only record of his personality, our specula- tions as to the kind of a man that lies buried here would necessarily be built upon a somewbat meager foundation, for in 1824 the fashion of rather or- nate eulogy in these matters had given place to a rather briefer style, and Mr. Biy’s grave-stone gives Httle more than a bare outline of his life and leaves character entirely to the imagination. But some other records of his survive the vears. for, while he was not per- haps so distinguished a divine as Dr. Williams, neverthsless he was an emi- nent man in his day. Like his prede- cessor in the Lebanon pulpit his minis- try was lifelong, and his outwardly un- eventful. although there is a tradition that while & student at Yale college he was ons of the body of undergraduates that opposed the British attack on the town. After his graduation In 1779 and a post-graduate study of theelogy, followed Ly desultery preaching and a brief tutorship at Yals, he accepted a call to Lebanon in the autumn of 1782. The chief local event of his pastorate was the destruction by part of the con- gregation of the meeting house and a bitter dispute as to the location ef a new ene. The controversy got Into the courts and finally to the general as- sembly, which consiituted new Dboun- daries of the parish. Soon thereafter (to be exmet, In 1307), the present meeting houge—an nteresting example of early mifeteenth century church ar- chitecture—was bullt, and here Mr. Ply continued his presching till inca- pacitated by the illness that culminat- ed in his death. Mighty in the Scriptures. Such is the brief record. ‘But what ®OTt of & man was he? Here we must hazard some guesses, but on the whole we can form a very fair idea. Appar- ently net so broad in his views as Dr. Wilflams, he was generally considered in doectrine e Calvinist, and during his pastorate the half-way covenant fell inte disuse in his church. Professor Dexter in his “Yale Biographies and Annale” ww some recollections of him by t Hon. George S. Hillard. “The good old man,” writes Mr. Hil- lard, “was mighty in the scriptures. To his.simple falth the events and characters of the Bible were as real and distinet as the scenes of his own life and the men and women of his own par . . . The word of God was the object of his daily and rev- erent stu and mot only his ser- mons but This letters and common speech had a large infusion of the lan- guage of the Bible” He must. too, have had a large share of Yankee thrift, for, Mr. Hillard continues, “Upon a salary of less than five hun- dred dollars a year, aided by a small farm and the tuition fees of a few pu- pils, he reared a family of twelve chil- dren, and left a comfortable property at his death” These twelve children. it may be said in passing, all lived to maturity. One at least died bofore her father. for his grave-stene sa and there is & pathos in the naivete of the wording, that “it i» believed he wa. welcomed among the spirits of the just made perfect by his daughter, Abby Wiize Ely. who died in Ciinton, Geor- sia.

Fire Flags on Trumbull Tomb. With so little of outward eventful- ness in these lives it may be wondered that they made any special appeal to a casual wanderer among these old mon- uments of the dead. The graves of others. the incidents of whose lives were far more stirring, lie all about— the little national flags, scattered thickly, showing what a large propor- tion ‘are the graves of soldiers. On the grassy top of the Trumbull tomb | | stand five of these flags, in commemo- ration of the serviee of the two Trum- bull governers, of Joseph Trumbull, first commissary general of the Conti- nental anmy, of David Trumbull, com- missary of Connesticut in the revolu- tion and assistant commissary general under his brother, Joseph, and of Wil- linm Williams, who previous to hiy eloction to the Continental congress had been colonel of the Twellth regi- ment of militia and had served in the French wars.

Perhaps this attraction comes in part from the contrast these lives ¥mll in comparison with our own. hey were practical men who did not neglect the public and private affairs of their times, but one is struck in any comsideration of their personalities with the fact that in their conception the things that really counted were the things of the spirit. Perhaps we some- times think that religious matters played almost too engrossing a part in the lives of our New England fore- fathers, but nevertheless here may be occasionally a rather refershing tonic in some consideration of their preoc- cupations and ideals. ’ Norwich Was Celebrating. At all events it seemed at the mo- ment that part of the national holicay spent in this quiet graveyard was | neither so unpatriotic or melancholy | a use of the day as might at first sight appear. In the thicket at the morth a | bob-white was calling; from far away sounded the muffled rattle of a wagon, and the bark of a dog in some hiliside pasture camea faintly down the wind. It was vain to listen here for the re- port of a firecracker or the boom of | a gun. Twelve miles away Ngrwich was celebrating its jubilee with blare of brass bands and bursts of eloguence, and in the other cities of the land noise was rampant, picnics were getting un- der way, bali games were in progress. But the ‘call of the quail, the rustle of the gentle northwest breeze in the trees and grasses and the distant noises of the countryside were all that coyld be heard in the place devoted to Leb- anon’s honored dead.
