§ 1026. STANTON HAZARD, 7 (Joshua, 6; Judge Joseph, 5; Governor Robert, 4.; Stephen, 3; Robert, 2; Thomas, I), was born April 21, 1809; he died August 16, 1892. He was born in Westerly, Rhode Island. One who was permitted to know him during the last few years of his life only, says—“ His whole appearance was impressive, and stamped upon one’s memory an undying picture. As he came into the room where I was sitting, I could but think of one of the old patriarchs. His silvery white hair was worn rather long, as though it was a sin to cut away so much beauty, and his soft white beard, also worn quite long, was as beautiful as his hair. His manner was gentle and courteous, and evidenced the true gentleman, not of the “old school ” alone, but of the school that is al— ways old, and always new. He had a keen sense of the humorous, and at dinner entertained his guests with many bright anecdotes; his quiet laugh was infectious. In knowing Mrs. Hazard, one could not be surprised at the long continued affec- tion between them and the mutual confidence in, and appreciation of each other. She was a tiny woman, as upright in her carriage as in her character, and although approaching her four—score years, seemed scarcely three—score, so well preserved was she, not only in her personal appearance, but also in her activity—she tripped about the room as lightly as a girl. Mrs. Hazard was of Huguenot descent, and retained, in a measure, the bright spirit of the old French ancestors. In the house were many valuable relics that were brought from France; beautiful pieces of cut glass and china, rare and old, and several statuettes, all in fine pres— ervation. Mr. Hazard had reproduced the statuettes in beautifully carved rose- wood.

He had a great love for, and pride in, his ancestry, and had made a valuable and exhaustive colleftion of family records of his descent from Deputy Governor Robert, and Doctor Robert Hazard. It is from these records that the material has been taken which makes these two lines possibly the most perfect of this book.

He married, March I I, 1834, Bethnia Brattle Aborn; she was born August 14, 1814 (the day the British left Stonington Point); and was daughter of Jonathan Aborn, of Pawtucket, Rhode Island.
