I have a copy of a paper-bound booklet of 145 pages titled: �A SOUVENIR OF NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT, FRATERNALLY DEDICATED TO THE RICHMOND LIGHT INFANTRY BLUES BATTALION OF RICHMOND VIRGINIA BY THE SECOND COMPANY, GOVERNOR�S FOOT GUARD, UPON THE OCCASION OF THEIR VISIT TO NEW HAVEN�. The visit was September 9, 10, 11, 1908. Of note, 2000 is the 225th year of the Second Company, Governor's Foot Guard. The book contains considerable history of both the CT and VA organizations, as well as New Haven and surrounding areas. The book lists the members of the New Haven committee members responsible for planning the event. It opens with an introduction of the automobile tour of New Haven for the guests from Virginia. Membership lists of both the Connecticut and Virginia organizations are included. The booklet is too long to transcribe, as well as being a bit fragile in its binding, thus it appears difficult to scan. There is also a wealth of information on the Foot Guard at: http://www.footguard.org/ This book is probably available within the C-R-V area and most certainly at the headquarters of the Foot Guard; check the website. It appears that it would be a good genealogical and historical reference. My grandmother, Belle Winship Morris was from New Haven and was Belle Winship Benham. She married her first husband, Charles Edward Beecher, in New Haven. She married her second husband, my grandfather, Henry Morris, in California, 1901. Capt Edward C. Beecher wrote the description of the New Haven tour and other Beechers are noted as members of the original Foot Guard Other Beechers are mentioned, but no Benhams. Incidentally, Benedict Arnold was a member and first Captain of the Foot Guard. A William Noyes is in my wife's line. The following is quoted from the booklet: 1774 The first meeting for the organization of the Second Compnay of the Governor's Foot Guard was held in New Haven, Connecticut, on the evening of December 28th, 1774, as the first entry in the Comany's Record Book shows, viz: As we, the subscribers, are desirous to encourage the Military Art in the town of New Haven, and in order to hqve a well-disciplined Company in the said town, have agreed with Edward Burke to teach usthe military exercise, for the consideration of three pounds lawful money per month, till such time as we shall think ourselves expert therein. We then propose to form ourselves into a Company, choose officers, and agree upon some uniform dress, such as a red coat, white vest, white breeches and stockings, black half leggins, or any other dress that may then be thought proper. We agree that we will endeavor to furnis ourselves with guns and bayonets, as near uniform as possible, and other accouttrements as may then be thought necessary. (But no person shall be obligated to equip himself as above, by signing this agreement, if he desires demission before he signs other articles.) This agreem4ent only obliges every signer to pay his proportional part of the expense of instructors, etc. Hezekiah Sabin, Jr. Samuel Greenough Elias Stillwell Thaddeus Beecher Aner Bradley Amos Doolittle James Prescott Hanover Barney Stephen Herrick Jonathan Austin David Burbank Daniel Bishop Elijah Austin Samuel Nevins Amos Morrison Rossiter Griffing Gold Sherman Ezekiel Hays, Jr. William Noyes Abraham Tuttle, Jr. Isiah Burr Jabez Smith Seabury Champlin James Hillhouse William Lanman Hesekiah Augur Pierpont Edwards James Warren Nathan Oaks Daniel Ingalls Elias Shipman Jonas Prentice Francis Sage John Townsend Ezra Ford Nathan Beers, Jr. Nathaniel Fitch Barnabus Mulford Parsons Clark Archibald Austin Eliakim Hitchcock William atwater James Huggins John Beckwith Jonathan Mix, Jr. Jeremiah Parmele Joshua Newhall Russel Clark William Lyon Eleasar Oswald John Thatcher Benoni Shipman Hezekiah Bailey Samuel Willard Jesse Leavenworth Timothy Jones, Jr. John Sherman, Jr. Elisha Painter Benedict Arnold Hezekiah Beecher Amos Gilbert Kiersted Mansfield Elias Townsend Joseph Peck Caleb Trowbridge 1775 At the meeting held on Thursday evening, February 2d, 1775, Samuel Greenough, moderator, the following vote was passed, that the dress coat for the Company be as follows, viz.: a scarlet coat of a common length, the lapells, cuffs, and collar of buff and trimmed with plain silver wash buttons, white linen vest, breeches, and stockings, black half leggins and small, fashionable and narrow ruffled shirt. On March 16th, 1775, Col. Leverett Hubbard in the chair, the permanent officers of the Company were elected as follows: Voted, that the following elected officers by the vote of the Company, viz.: Benedict Arnold, Captain Jesse Leavenworth, Lieutenant Samuel Greenough, Sergeant Eliakim Hitchcock, Sergeant Nathaniel Fitch, Sergeant Jeremiah Parmele, Sergeant William Lyon, Clerk The choice of corporals was postponed. The booklet goes on to describe the chartering of the Foot Guard by the General Assembly on March 2nd 1775. The following fifty eight members signing the memorial, according to both the booklet and the web site for the Foot Guard: Hezekiah Sabin, Jr. Samuel Greenough Elias Stillwell Thaddeus Beecher Francis Sage Archibald Austin David Burbank Daniel Bishop Elijah Austin Amos Morrison Rossiter Griffing Benoni Shipman Hezekiah Bailey Jesse Leavenworth Timothy Jones, Jr. Amos Gilbert Seabury Champlin Caleb Trowbridge Pierpont Edwards Elias Townsend Joseph Peck Ebenezer Huggins William Lyon Joshua Newhall Jonathan Mix, Jr. John Townsend Ezra Ford Nathan Beers, Jr. Nathaniel Fitch Aner Bradley Amos Doolittle Jonas Ingals Jonas Prentice James Warren Nathan Oaks Eliakim Hitchcock James Huggins Parsons Clark James Prescott Hanover Barney Stephen Herrick Jonathan Austin Gold Sherman William Noyes Abraham Tuttle John Sherman, Jr. Elisha Painter Benedict Arnold Hezekiah Beecher James Hillhouse William Lanman Kiersted Mansfield Hezekiah Augur William Jones Eleaser Oswald Josiah Burr Jeremiah Parmele Jabez Smith I hope this post will be of some use to list members.

Thank you, Bob, for clearing the word "porter" up for me. And thanks for paying close enough attention to note my questioning the use of the word in that context. Harriet | Hi Harriet -- Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy your republishing | ol" Philander's life. He's not on my direct line of descent, but he certainly | made his contribution to the Chase history. Re your mention of his illness in | New Orleans and the reference to "porter" which I gather you might not have | understood???? | Porter is short for "porter's beer" a weak stout of about four percent | alcohol. He probably credits that for saving his life. Cheers, Bob Chase |

By Laura Chase Smith, Dutton Press, 1903 Chapter X FROM SOUTH TO NORTH ABBREVIATED VERSION One incident occurred during Mr. Chase's six years residence in New Orleans which cannot be passed over, as in itself it is interesting, and in the later life of the Bishop it proved a providential help to him in a crisis. To quote directly from the " Reminiscences": "While living below the city of New Orleans, two gentlemen, Messrs. Leonard, the one a druggist, the other a commission merchant, were residents of that city. The former came to me and told me that his brother had received a consignment of a large cargo of Negroes from the slave coast of Africa, and felt it his duty to take the best care of them in his power, now that the business, against his will and expectation, had been thrown upon his hands. Some of then were even now in a perishing state, and two of them must die unless removed immediately and carefully nursed; and his object in coming to me was to ask me to allow those poor creatures to find a shelter in my kitchen. <This it is presumed was an outside building, as is customary during the summer in hot climates> This proposal was immediately assented to, and one end of the servants' quarters became a hospital. Being carefully and kindly nursed by the family, one of these poor fellow-beings was saved from death; the other after much lingering long, died. A coffin was made for him by the hired servant Jim; a grave was dug in the land adjoining; and my family saw the poor exile buried, believing that his soul was as precious in God's sight as that of any other human being." How these events could be represented as a sin and urged as an objection to the consecration of Mr. Chase as a Christian Bishop will hereafter be shown. The school, which Mr. Chase had founded under the stress of strong necessity, had by this time become an important feature for good in the lives of youths of that important Southern city. Few at this day can estimate the value of such instructions as this earnest man could give, in these days of his youth and strength. He says, apropos of this subject: "after the school removed to the city and commenced under very favorable circumstances, many from town pressed into it and not a few from the country and towns up the river, --- the Dunbars, Geraults from the Natchez, the Sterlings and the Barrows from Bayou Sara, and the Percys and the Evanses from Pinkneyvillle and fort Adams, all of the best. ............... ............... The school still increasing, Mr. Chase was obliged to find larger quarters in the buildings of M. La Branch, Tchoupitoulas (yes, that is correct) Street, then the Levee in the Fausbourg St. Mary. While he was conducting this school he spent someone the most laborious years of his life, and probably some of the most useful. He says in his "Reminiscences.............. ............... ...............Should any of his pupils ever chance to cast their eyes on this little book, let them be assured that although these words are written with a trembling age, his heart still beats for them with warm affection, and his prayers ............. ............. .............. In these days one can scarcely imagine the magnitude of the work accomplished by this one man in those six years of unremitting toil in such a city as New Orleans then was. It was not that New Orleans was then or is now an unhealthful city. Statistics prove quite to the contrary, but also then as now, the yellow fever at certain periods found its victims there as in other Southern cities, and that time even in New York. In one of these years it found and reaped great harvest in New Orleans. Mr. Chase fell ill and became convinced that upon the fatal eleventh day the use of porter at the critical hour saved his life. (this is not entirely making sense to me, but am typing it as is) ................ .................. But imperious duty, in regard to the education of his young sons left with their uncle in Vermont, called him back to the North. Mrs. Chase had found the Southern climate of great benefit to her health, and now, with a mother's longing, desired to return to her children, who were growing to manhood, --- fourteen and thirteen years of age. In his last address to his pupils upon his departure, Mr. Chase, used the following tender words: "Sweet have been the hours I have passed with you, and grateful is my remembrance of them.. Many of you have waxed strong and come from childhood to youth and from youth to maturity under my care. During this period I call you to witness how often and how earnestly I have exhorted you to do your duty to God. Let memories of these instructions come often to your minds; so far as you find them to accord with the sacred Word of God; let them be imprinted upon your hearts, bear company in your walks by day and follow to your pillow at night. Remember the sum and substance of your instruction, --- ......... ....................... "It now remains for me to say to the congregation what I may never have the opportunity again to say: My brethren, farewell! I go from you, but wherever I am I shall remember to my dying day your many instances of kindness to me. ........... .............. ............... There is no record of the journey to the North. It may be taken for granted that it was accomplished as before, by means of some sailing vessel from New Orleans to New York, as steamboats were not then in use on the Mississippi or elsewhere. Mr. Chase says that the sons so long separated from their parents were reunited with them at the home of their uncle Deadly in Randolph, Vermont. and they had great pleasure in seeing their growth in stature and improvement in mind. They were handsome, interesting and intelligent lads, and already well advanced in their studies. It was a subject of great regret to Mr. and Mrs. Chase that there was no church in Randolph or in Bethel, where many of the kindred resided. Here it was that in Mr. Chase's early youth he had taught school, read prayers, and after his ordination preached to the faithful few of his relatives, and here he was married to his young wife, the mother of his children. He would gladly have remained, but wishing to give these promising sons the benefit of the best education possible, he went with his family to Cheshire, Connecticut, where he meet the Rev. Dr. Tillotson Bronson, even then eminent as an educator. Here he immediately began housekeeping; the boys were placed at school, the family was settled, and the lads were safely cared for by a "teacher ............ Such a picture painted in Bishop Chase's own vivid words gives to the modern mind almost an impossible being. ........... . This was the Rev. Dr. James De Koven, of Racine College. The home in Cheshire seemed to be a haven of rest for Mr. Chase. He spent his Sundays in Hartford, where he eventually removed as rector of Christ Church. In that city for a brief period he seemed to taste the genial pleasure of such society as pleased his taste and encouraged his hopes for his sons, with their mother in the sweet home life now made possible for them to enjoy. Mr. Chase always described this period of his life as his "day of sunshine." In the "Reminiscences, " he thus speaks of these years: "In the fall of 1811, I was with uncommon felicity to myself fixed as rector of Christ Church, Hartford. My residence in this city continued until 1817. During this time the number of faithful greatly increased. The attendance at the Lord's Table ........... ............................. In the bosom of an enlightened society, softened by the hand of urbanity and kindness, my enjoyments, crowned with abundance and temporal blessings, were as numerous and refined as belong to the lot of man. Of the time I spent in this lovely city I can never speak in ordinary terms. It is to my remembrance as a dream of more than terrestrial delight. Of its sweets I tasted for a while and thought myself happy, ......... .............. During the time of the rectorship of Christ Church, Hartford, occurred the death of Dudley Chase and his wife Allace, the father and mother of Mr. Chase, the former the parents of fifteen children, fourteen of who had grown to mature years. From the moment of the death of the wife and mother in the year 1814, the father who survived eight months after his wife's death, conceived himself away from home and would frequently entreat his children to carry him home to his dear wife, and yet would go to her grave and with perfect calmness speak of her with tender words of affection. When asked what he would have inscribed upon her tombstone, he replied, "this is the way to Immortality"; Mr. Chase further says of this place, which he visited last in the summer of 1840: "There they both lie in the church yard at Cornish. the evergreen pine trees grown round the enclosure............ .............. ..............
