Noadiah Russell was minister of Middletown, and was a man of great respectability and influence. Nathaniel Hodson, whose name appears in the Harvard Cata- logue, as one of the class of 1693, was the son of John Hodson or Hodgson, merchant, of New Haven. The will of John Hodson is dated July, 1690, and in it, provision is made for the college expenses of his son Nathaniel. Of the subsequent history of Nathaniel Hod- son, I am ignorant. Stephen Mix, minister of Wethersfield, Connecticut, was grad...u- ated at Harvard College, 1690, and was son of Thomas Mix of New Haven. The Rev. Stephen Mix was one of the most able of the Congregational ministers of his time. The advantage to the colony from this single effort in favor of lib- eral education, cannot easily be estimated. The reason that so many belonging to New Haven, were educated at Harvard before the year 1700, is found chiefly in the zeal and widely extended influence of Mr. Davenport. To make a complete catalogue of these students is difficult ; most of their names however are probably contained in the following list.
