the Connecticut adviser of Gen. Wash
ington during the revolutionary war.
The Connecticut WyllySes, who were
prominent for two centuries in the his
tory of the colony and state, lie in I'M
marked graves. 1t was an old family
pride not to have the graves of the
Wyllyses designated by headstones or
monuments. One of them was accus-
toned to say that if Connecticut could
not remember its Wyllyses without
gravestOnes, their memory might rot.
One of the most notable of the table
monuments was erected to the memory
of John Ledyard, the ancestor of Col.
William Ledyard, who was killed by
an English officer after surrcndering
his sword, September I, 1871. at Fort
Ledyard in New London harbor. The
chivalric light dragoon, Thomas Y.
Seymour, who figures in Trumbull's
paintings of "Burgoync's Surrender"
and The African Traveller, John Led
yard" are buried in these ancient
grounds that have been conSccrated by
the dust of Hooker and the founders Of
the colony.
Several governors are buried in the
Enclosure. These include John Haynes,
the first governor of the colony; Joseph
TalcOtt and William Lccte. who became
the chief magistrate in 1869. 1t has
long been a disputed point as 10 where
the remains of Gov. Lcctc rest in the
grounds. Eight years ago. when por-
ton of the ancient burial tract was in
fringed upon by building interests in
the city, a considerable number of
graves were uncarthed. 1t was claimed
at the time, but not satisfactorily
proved. that Gov. Lcctc'S grave was one
of the dcSccrated ones. Some of the
old Guilford governors descendants
have erected a modern obclisL to his
memory.
There has not been an intcrmcnt in
the grounds during the last fifty years.
The tract does not belong to the church,
although its pastors and pariNhioncrs
were buried in it for six generations.
The town of Hartford is the owner Of
the historic spot, and the care bestowed
upon it does not aggregate one hundred
dollars a year.
