In 1854 he received the degree of Doctor of Divinity from Williams College. Still retaining a nominal connection with his parish, he removed to Pittsfield, Massachusetts, where, in the family of his son-in-law, the Rev. J. Todd, he passed happily the last six years of his life. This article incorporates public domain material from the Yale Obituary Record. (en) |
