    "Caleb Hotchkiss, Junior, a younger brother of John Hotchkiss (Yale 1748), was born in New Haven about 1743. He studied theology and was licensed to preach by the New Haven Association of Ministers on September 25, 1770, and during at least a part of the next two years he preached to the Society in Litchfield South Farms, over which his classmate, George Beckwith, was settled in October, 1772. His health had, however, begun to fail even before his licensure, and he was not able to undertake steady employment. In 1779-80 he supplied the. newly-formed Great Hill Society (now extinct), in the southwestern part of the present township of Seymour, New Haven County. He died at his home in New Haven, after a long illness, from consumption of the lungs, on Monday night, December 13-14, 1784, in his 42d year."
