Captain Nathan Hale, 1755-1776: Yale college 1773; Major John Palsgrave Wyllys, 1754-1790: Yale college 1773; friends and Yale classmates, who died in their country's service, one hanged as a spy by the British, the other killed in an Indian ambuscade on the far frontier. A digressive history now told with many antiquarian excursions, genealogical, architectural, social, and controversial: with an account of some members of a great patrician family, their manorial establishment in Hartford, their custody for generations of the Charter of King Charles the Second, and the story of the hiding thereof. / By George Dudley Seymour. |
