It will be seen by studying this record that out of the eight…seven members of the second generation born in this country； six elected to live in single blessedness。 These were Silas； Harmon's third son； Thomas； a son of Sarah Lawrence； Margaret； a daughter of John； Jane； a daughter of Amos； and Ruth and Albert； Thompson's two eldest born。
Silas was a man of sterling principles； generous almost to a fault； and of more than ordinary intellectual force。 He was the kind of man that would have delighted the practical mind of the Apostle James。 Under all circumstances his aim was to make his practice accord with his profession。 His death took place at his home in Point de Bute in 1860。
Thomas Lawrence was a general favorite； and had the reputation of being better to others than to himself。 Children trusted him at once。 He died at his home in Nappan； N。S。； in 1867。
Margaret Trueman was one of the most charitable of women； always ready with a kind word or deed whenever opportunity offered。 She finished life's journey in Mexico； in 1897。
Jane Trueman is still living。
Albert died in September； 1901； at his home； Prospect Farm。 He was born in the brick house； and lived there his full life of seventy…five years and five months。 He had many friends and no enemies。
Ruth lived her life of sixty…three years in the old home where she was born； and died in 1887。 She was thoughtful and fond of reading； and did what she could to cultivate a taste for reading in those who came under her influence。 Her religious convictions were decided； but not demonstrative。 She delighted in conversation where literature and authors were the subjects。 Macaulay was one of her favorite writers。
When Ruth's brothers and sisters were young； and books were not so common as now； she very often read aloud to her mother and the family。 Macauley's Essays and History； Prescott's works； the 〃Literary Garland；〃 and lighter works were read from time to time as circumstances or taste dictated。 GLEASON'S PICTORIAL； the ANGLO…SAXON； the SCOTTISH… AMERICAN； and HARPER'S MAGAZINE were read with great interest。 She was a subscriber to the CENTURY MAGAZINE at the time of her death。 Some of Hannah More's sacred dramas were frequently read on a Sabbath evening。 The writer remembers well how we younger children enjoyed the moment when David；
〃From his well…directed sling； quick hurled； with dexterous aim； a stone； which sank deep…lodged in the capacious forehead of the foe。〃
And
〃The mighty mass of man fell prone； with its own weight； his shattered bulk was bruised。 Straight the youth drew from his sheath the giant's pond'rous sword； and from the enormous trunk the gory head； furious in death； he severed。〃
The language was rather beyond us； but we knew that David had killed the gian
