Princeton Coll. in
1763, and, until 1772, was a tutor in that institution.
Early in that year he came to Litchfield, Ct., and began the practice of the
law, in that then important
village. In 1784 he began the instruction of legal students, and thus laid the
foundation of the famous
Litchfield Law School, which had an existence of nearly fifty years and
graduated more than a
thousand students, comprising the flower of the youth of the land. In 1798 he
was chosen Judge
of the Superior Court of Connecticut. "Judge Reeve," says Hollister in his "
History of Conn.,"
"was a man of ardent temperament, tender sensibilities, and of a nature deeply
religious. He was
the first eminent lawyer in this country, who dared to arraign the common law of
England, for its
severity and refined cruelty in cutting off the natural rights of married women
and placing their
property, as well as their persons, at the mercy of their husbands, who might
squander it, or
hoard it up at pleasure."
He is described as a most venerable man in appearance, with thick, gray hair
parted and falling
in profusion on his shoulders, his voice only a loud whisper, but distinctly
heard by his earnestly
attentive pupils. (See article " Litchfield Hill," in Harper's Magazine, March,
1877.)

Of the six sons of Nathaniel Burr, all of whom served their country faithfully
in the
Continental Army, Stephan, the youngest, failed to return to his family and
friends;
nor were any certain tidings of his fate ever received. Years after, a neighbor
claimed
to have met and spoken with him while on a peddling tour in the far South, but
his
report was generally discredited; it is probable that he perished on some one of
the
battle-fields of the Revolution.

334 M ii. James BURR was born in Manhasset Valley, LI.
"On Thursday evening, October 26th, 1782, about Twenty (20) rebels landed near
Cow Neck, attacked the houses of James Burr and John Burtis, killed Burr and
robbed his store of every thing valuable; but in the attack, their leader a
Capt. Martin
of Mass., (with his commission in his pocket,) was killed. They carried off
three of
their party supposed to be badly wounded. There were two Whale boats, with
muffled oars. The men landed at Thorne's dock (now Judge Kissam's) and
proceeded to Burr's Store, (now H. Morrell's,) Manhasset Valley. Burr had been
robbed once before, and slept in the store with his gun ready loaded. As
soon as they demanded admittance, he fired. Judging of his position by the
report,
the robbers fired diagonally through the front corners of the store. Burr
received a
ball in his body, went to the bedside, told his little brother he was a dead
man, and
fell.
"The brother referred to afterwards moved to Manchester, Vermont, became a
Banker,
and the Founder of 'Burr and Burton Seminary.' "-From Onderdonk's Revolutionary
Reminiscences of Queens Co., L. I.
"This institution is in Manchester, and was incorporated October 28, 1829. It
owes its
existence to the munificence of Joseph Burr, Esq., who resided many years at
Manchester,
Vt., and by patient industry and an upright course of business accumulated
property
estimated at the time of his death (which took place April '4, 1828) to the
amount of
$I50,000 A large portion of this property was distributed by will to public
institutions,
among them $10,000 for a "literary seminary" at Manchester which laid the
foundation
of the Burr Seminary. The condition of the above grant was that within the
period of
five years from the decease of the legator, suitable buildings should be
erected,
apparatus and other things provided for the furtherance and accomplishment of
the object, the expense of which should be at least equal to the further sum of
$io,ooo.
"On the 19th of May, 1833, the school was opened with appropriate public
exercises,
in the chapel of the institution. Addresses were delivered by the Rev. John
Proudfit,
D.D., president of the board of. trustees, and by the Rev. Lyman Coleman, who
had
been appointed Principal. With the latter was associated John Aiken, Esq., in
the
immediate management of the school, and under their direction it soon assumed
a high place among the literary institutions of New England. The building is of
stone,
102 ft. long and four stories high, including basement. To the building is
attached a
kitchen and woodhouse 70 ft. long, and about 30 acres of land." - From Zadock
Thompson's History of Vermont, published 1842.
