with Mn. Hatt, W ea the 98th of April following he wrote
to her as follows: (The limn counsel thee reed the letter,

this referred to the circumstance that Mr,. Hart's children
on se:craning their mother's ensure:me and of her h-

Mn. Hart determined to become • member of the church of
England, and accordingly in the month of Nov., 11659, she
was tinned at Bt. Puente Church. The marriage was
to have tailspins about Christasu. but long before that Mr.
