Notes:

He was master of a short-hand which had puzzled us in several documents, and to which we did not imagine that any key could ever be found. Amono- the papers deposited in the library of the Connecticut Historical Society, many years since, was a stout little vellum-covered volume of nearly four hundred pages, closely written in this hand, with no clew to the subject nor to the writer's name. It lay unnoticed until about the year 1857, when it attracted the attention of J. Hammond Trumbull, LL.D., who is as ingenious in such matters as he is persevering in his researches. He succeeded in deciphering it, and found it to consist of notes of sermons and lectures, delivered in Windsor and Hartford, between April, 1638, and May, 1641, in regular course. The writer's name is not given, but his birthday is noted on the first leaf of the volume, and this and other facts identify him as Henry Wolcott, Jr.; and it is a curious fact that the only record of his birth is found among these hieroglyphics, and the date has been unknown till now. Having called Dr. Trumbull's attention to this fact, we give his answer, which explains his discovery of the authorship : —

I was aware that the entry of Henry Wolcott's birth in the short-hand notebook supplied a date not hitherto ascertained, and corrects the year to which his birth has been usually assigned. This entry was my first clew to the ownership of the note-book. It is made at the top of the first leaf in the volume, in a single line, which, deciphered, reads : " Tlie day I was born was the 21 of January 1610" — that is, of course, 1611, N. S. So I had given, a regular hearer of Mr. Warham and Mr. Huit from 1638 to 1641, who was an occasional hearer of Mr. Hooker and Mr. Stone, at times when the Court was in session at Hartford, and who was born in 161 1. Henry Wolcott, Jr., was the only man in the Colony that could satisfy the conditions of the problem ; and on looking, for corroboration, into the " Wolcott Ledger," I found numerous entries in the same characters employed in the notebook. The latter contains no other entry of personal or family matters. The Ledger notes the birth of one or two children in short-hand, but supplies no new dates.

Died:
According to Wolcott (1881) His death was hastened, according to his son's account, by gloomy anticipations of the oppression and suffering which awaited the colonists under the coming administration of Sir Edmund Andros. These fears, as the result proved, were not wholly groundless, and they were probably heightened in his mind by the tragic scenes which had recently been enacted in his native county in England. Somersetshire had been the principal seat of the unfortunate operations of Monmouth's fatal expedition, and the former neighbors of the family in England, and their families, had furnished some of the victims for the "judicial massacre" of the brutal Jeffreys during his Bloody Assizes. The reign of King James II., during the few years it lasted, was naturally an object of strong dislike and dread to the colonists.
