515oteg appears to have been an intimate friend of Benjamin Mumford, with whose name his own is here joined. His son, James Dickson, married Mr. Mumford's daughter Ann. The Narragansett Register contains records of the baptism of several children of Anthony and Hannah Dickson, with Benjamin and Ann Mumford as sponsors. On October 4, 1747, it is recorded that Dr. MacSparran admitted Anthony Dickson to the Eucharist for the first time. 83 "Jn" Cole, Esq." (Note 72.) John, the eldest son of Elisha and Elizabeth Cole, was born in 1715 and was, therefore, at this date twenty-eight years of age. He soon after married Mary, the only daughter of Colonel Updike, his present fellow-visitor at Doctor MacSparran's; and became Chief Justice ofthe Supreme Court ofthe Colony. He died about 1777, in a small-pox hospital, which he had been induced to enter for inoculation. 84 "Dr. Hazard." Dr. Robert Hazard was a son of Caleb and Abigail (Gardiner) Hazard, the latter being a sister of Mrs. MacSparran and at this date the wife of Gov. William Robinson. (Note 18.) Doctor Hazard was born at the close of the year 1722 and was, therefore, now in his twenty-first year. He was baptized by the Doctor, August 17,1742, Mrs. MacSparran, "aunt by the mother's side to sdyoung man" being one of his sureties. He had been reared as a Friend. In 1752 Doctor Hazard married Elizabeth, a daughter of the late Gov. Robert Hazard, of Point Judith. He was a popular physician in South Kingstown and died February 12, 1771, after a lingering illness. On Sunday, February 24th, Parson Fayerweather "preached at the house of mourning of the late Doctor Hazard on mortality, a large congregation present." Young Robert Hazard is frequently mentioned in this Diary as a visitor at the Glebe House and was evidently a favourite with the Doctor, as well as with his aunt, Mrs. MacSparran. He was educated as a physician, by his uncle, the celebrated Doctor Silvester Gardiner. (Note 51.)—Updike's Hist, ofthe Narragansett Church, pp. 249, 250. l99l
