subsequently, engaged In teaching, with dis

Boston, and afterwards assumed the charge
of the First Independent Church in Salem.
With an enthusiastic natural TASTE for agri>

some years he devoted himself to practical
agriculture. At later period, he was ap.

pursuance Of design which he had long

devoted 10 extensive European travelling
with view 10 gaining information on for.

collected copious materials, which lie inien

a man of commanding personal appearance
