Notes


JOHN BARRETT came from his former home in Connecticut to live with his daughter in Poultney, some years before 1796; that he was a soldier in the French and Indian War, and often related his trials and hardships. In an expedition to Canada, he was out forty days and nights in the winter time, with no covering but a blanket. He died in the house now occupied by Mr. Buckland, June 9, 1796, at the age of 93 years. Philo Hosford, who was then a boy of 13 years, has said that he saw Mr. Barrett three days before his death, hoeing corn with others, and he kept up with them. Those at work with him urged him to hoe a hill and skip a hill: this he resented, and it was supposed this day's work killed him.
