PARTRIDGE THATCHER.


 Partridge Thatcher was the first man who prac- ticed the legal profession in New Milford. He was not educated to the profession, but took up the trade, because there were none of the craft hereabout, when this county was organized, which was after he came to middle age. He was na- tive, 1 have been told, of Lebanon in this state, and came to New Milford, know not how long ago. He was, however, married man at the time He had no children but a large number of negroes, whom he treated with kindness enough to put to shame the reproaches of all the abolitionists in New England. He was a man of strong mind, of rigid morality, and religious to the letter according to the stictest sect of orto- dox episcopacy. He adored Charles l. as mar tyr and he hated Oliver Cromwell worse than he did the evil one. Loyalty, unconditional loyalty, was, the prime element of his political creed. Of course, his name was not found in any list of the wicked Wings of the Revolution, and had he lived in these days, he would most thoroughly have eschewed democracy and abolitionism. On the breaking out of the Revolutionary war, his loyalty necessarily silenced his voice in court and he died soon after it's conclusion. Lawyer Thatcher, as he was always called, was undoubt- edly, a very odd, a very honest and very good man. wish there were many such men now, both on account of the good example they would set, and the harmless amusement they would afford.
