    "… second wife, … Dorothy Gates of East Haddam. She was born May 5, 1729, and died October 29, 1821. Early in life she devoted herself to God in public profession of religion, and in various scenes of life she displayed a uniform and consistent Christian walk. As she advanced in life her piety shone with an increasing lustre, and, in connection with a natural sweetness of disposition and amiableness of temper, it shed a peculiar loveliness on her old age. Few mothers in Israel have displayed more patience, serenity and cheerfulness in the decline of life, and few have died more lamented by surviving friends. The memory of the just is blessed. … His second wife was admitted to that church (Canterbury) in 1759. …"
