babab ; they had seven children, all boys, viz. Solomon, lola •
fames, Matthew, Jonas, David, and Ezekiel. The husband - •
out one leg, his wife but one arm. Solomon was horn bid
he left eye, and lost his sight by accident. James hal
eft ear bit off by a Roger Coy in a quarrel, and Matthew was horn
only three fingers on his right hand. Jonas had a stump foot, • t
David was humpbacked. All these, except David, were -
hly short, while Ezekiel was six feet one inch high at de
of 19. The stumpfooted Jonas and the humpbacked got ;
of fortune, but no girls in the borough would listen to the
lresses of their brothers. The husband's hair was as black
Ind the wife's remarkably white, yet every one of the chit
Lair was red.. The husband was killed by accidentally f •
nto a deep pit in the year 1;01; and his wife, refusing all
sustenance, died five days after him. In the year 1703
del enlisted as a -grenadier, and, although he was afte •
wounded in 25 placer, he recovered. Roger, James, Ma •
Jonas, and David, it appears by the Church Registers, died
different places, and were buried on the same day, in the!
1715 ; and Solomon and Ezekiel were drowned together,
croating the Thames, in the year 1723.
