(Born: July 11, 1780 - Died: August 16, 1840)

American clergyman, author and historian. He graduated from Harvard College in 1800, and became an Episcopalian minister in 1802. He briefly served as an editor of the Knickerbocker Magazine. He is buried in Harmony Grove Cemetery, in Salem, MA, although his monument is so eroded as to defy reading.
