      As this book is not a Lord Genealogy, I have made no effort to follow the fortunes of these brothers and sisters. A few facts, however, as to the senior brother Richard have an historic value. He was a merchant in Hartford, and was one of the body cor porate to whom King Charles granted the Connecticut charter, April 20, 1662. He seemed to be of rather a pugnacious dispo sition, for on Oct. 12, 1643, he engaged his brother-in-law, Thomas Stanton, in a quarrel about trading for Indian corn. He used very threatening language, and drew his sword, but be fore he could use it he was arrested and fined five pounds by the Hartford Court. It would be interesting to know how Mr. Stanton conducted himself in this little broil, but we only know that the Court Record makes no case against him. In 1658 the first troop of horsemen in Conn. was organ ized, and Richard Lord was chosen captain. He died in New London, May 17, 1662, and was buried in the old burial-place there. A table of red sandstone covers his grave, cracked and sunken below the surrounding soil; it is, nevertheless, still there; probably the oldest inscribed tombstone east of the Connecticut river.

      An Epitaph ok Captaine Richard Lord, Deceased. May 17, 1662, Miktk SV. M 51.

      " The bright starre of our ca valine lyes here. Unto the state a counselore full dearo And to y* truth a friend of sweete content. To Hartford Towne a silver ornament. " Who can deny to Poore he was releife And in composing paroxysmes was cheife. To Marchants as a patterne he might stand Adventring dangers new by sea and land."
