The following extract taken from one Of
DR.. Trumbull's memorandum explains it,
self
"From the commencement of my ministry
in North Haven, particular attention was
paid to the instruction of the children and
young people under my pastoral care. Find
ing that there had been great neglect with
respect to schooling and the education of
children, I used all my influence with the
people in private to engage them in School
ing and educating their children. Several
sermons were preached to show the impor-
lance of religious and good education. To
encourage this important matter, proposed
to give the society three month"; schooling if
they would erect school house in the center
of the parish. This was soon accomplished
The whole parish sent to the school. Some-
times there were not less than seventy or
eighty children In day, and, If I do not
disremember, the number sometimes amount
cd to ninety"
"During the whole three months used
my utmost exertion, with an assistant under
me, to teach them everything useful, and
especially to teach them religion. Gates
proper instruction and representations to i'm
press their minds with sense of God and
religion"
the War-1775-the children of the society
were frequently catechized in the meeting
house and in the various Quarters of the So
ciety. For the encouragement of the chill
dren little books, such as DR.. Watts Songs
for Children and books teaching religion and
good manners, were given them. Sermons
| on these occasions were commonly preached
| in the meeting house, when the catechizingi
were in the centre, and there was genera
| attendance"
"The tumults and distresses of the Wal
with Great Britain in some measure inter.
rupted this method. Both the Catechiziugi
and the Lectures on those occasions were lesi
were less attentive to the matter"
"-Immediately after tho conclusion o.
the War 1t was proposed for an encourages
ment in this city that every child who should
publicly say thorough the Assemblys Shorte
Catechism in the meeting house, should b.
presented with said catechism and the proof
at large, and that on learning to prov
twenty answers by heart, the book shoult
be the childs: and that those children VIII
would learn said catechism, with the proof
and say them memoriter in the meeting
house, should each of them receive . new
Bible, and that their names with the name
of their parents and instructors should b
entered in the Records of the Church for
perpetual memorial"
By the providence of God this record ha
been preserved for more than a hundre'
years and it Is one of the pleasantest duties o
the writer as pertaining to these annals to b
able to publish this list broadcast and max
truly perpetual memorial" Of it in accord
ance with the doctors wishes.

indicate either the continuance or cessation
Of the plan. At the loan exhibition, held in

count Of the expenses of the communion SER
vice In DR.. Trumbull's church, d;covers the
period from 1850 to 1900.
As preliminary to this, 1t should be stated
that in 1746 Mr.. Ebenezer Mansfield devised
to "the church in the North Village now nm
der the pastoral care of the Rev. Isaac Stiles,
all my meadow lying near q place called
Duck cove: Bounded eastward by ditch,
northward by the cove, southwark by
Stephen Nunson's meadow, westward by the
river"
The income from this bequest was to be
devoted to the support of the communion
service and the needs of the poor of the
church. During the time of this narrative
(178O) IL Yielded an annual revenue of from
three to Eve pounds, and for q hundred years
and more has steadily carried out the wishes
OF lLb leB6tOL, lohvlnR nuuuhuy uA uuoXPouu-
ed balance which has grown to be small
fund. In late years neglect to maintain the
dykes has reduced it, value to worthlsssnsss.
Mr.. Tuttls quantity prefaces his account
thus: "Nov. I'd, 1850. Then was chosen
deacon"
He WAS the successor Of Deacon James
Humaston, and on his assumption Of Office
received of the latter gentleman three pints
of wine and hundred and seventy conti-
mental dollars and twenty-five shillings of
state money" His initial purchase for the
observance of the communion season In the
following January was six quarts of wine,
for which he paid the Estate money" as
above, and sixty-six continental dollars be-
sides. For the bread on this occasion he
paid eighty three continental dollars.
Some idea Of the value Of this paper money
may be gained when the total expense of the
bread for the year 1881 was but four shil.
lings in silver, or cost of about eight pence
per Sabbath. Such basis hxes the silver
value of these eighty-three continental doll
lars ct eight pence, or about sixteen cents
for the whole lot.
But the quantity of wine consumed in
these twenty years at once arrests our alton
ton because 10 utterly out of all proportion

Congregational church are historic, we refer
to two cases.. The Oldest cup was the gift Of
Miss Ruth Atwster of New Haven, after
wards the wife of Samuel Ives, deacon of
Mr.. Wetmore's church, 1918. DR.. Trumbull
speaking of the donor says, s'She was of the
wealthy and respectable family of the At
waters" It undoubtedly was the first and
only piece used by the church At Its forma-
tion-1716.
The other instance II the baptismal bason
presented by the Rev. Ezra Stiles, D. D., in
1894, as a memorial of his esteem for the
parish.
It bears the following inscription:
