cality still known as "Walker's Cove." (Story of the Mount
Hope Lands, p. 141.) It is not improbable that Capt. Walker,
if not identical with this William Walker, who must have
been one of Dr. MacSparran's early Bristol friends, was of
the same family.
in" Capt. Thomas Hazard's wife?
Mr. Updike makes the almost incredible statement (Hist, of
the Narragansett Church, p. 247) that "there were thirty-two
Tom Hazards living at one time." There were, therefore,
undoubtedly, a considerable number, at the time of this
Diary, and "Thomas Hazard's wife" is somewhat ambiguous. There is, however, no doubt that this "Capt. Thomas
Hazard" was the one who was later and better known as
"Col. Hazard of Boston Neck," being a brother of Gov.
George Hazard and a nephew of "Old Thomas Hazard."
(Note 88.) It is interesting to note that Col. Hazard's daughter Abigail became the wife of the Rev. Peter Bours (Note
308), mentioned in the Diary, and, after his death, of the
Rev. Samuel Fayerweather, the successor of Dr. MacSparran,
in S. Paul's Church. This latter marriage is thus quaintly
recorded in the Narragansett Register, by the bridegroom,
himself: "On the 13th of the month [Feb. 1763] Sunday
Mr. F. was published to Mrs. Abigail Bours, The surviving
Relicl of the Rev. Peter Bours of Marblehead. Sunday the
27th of Feb. Mr. F. was married to Mrs. Bours In the church
at Newport, early in the morning, about 8 o'clock By the
Revd. Marmaduke Browne, and that Day (an Exceeding
cold Day) preached on the occasion from these words to a
large auditory, ' Do all to the Glory of God.'" Another daughter of Col. Hazard, named Alice, after her mother, whom
the Doctor is here represented as visiting, married her own
cousin, Carder Hazard, a son of Gov. George Hazard, and
became the grandmother of the late Edward H. Hazard of
Wakefield.
