From Bond’s Watertown:30
        “He was an ardent whig, and an uncompromising persecutor of the tories, even before the Revolution broke out; was one of the Boston "Tea Party," and was engaged, it is said, in the battle of Bunker Hill. His stature was 6 ft. 2 in., and his proportions admirable for masculine beauty and power, in which he was almost unequalled. But his violent and ill-regulated temper, and his wayward habits, greatly impaired his usefulness in after life. In 1777, he purchased of Oakes Angier, 12 acres of land in Newton, near Angier's Corner, which he sold in 1786, to Wm. Brown, of Boston. He afterwards settled in Maine, where he d. 1824 or '25.”
