Chandler's mind lost its equipoise, and he died in the Hospital for the Insane at Worcester, in 1846. (See page 80. ) Richard Whitney, the third son of Dr. Ephraim Whitney, was a man of superior talents, and uncommon aptitude for teach- ing. He studied law, and entered on his profession in Brattle- borough, Vt. , with fair prospects of a brilliant career ; but he fell a lamented victim of that well-known destroyer, by whose ravages the community was, and still is, deplorably afilicted, — a dest...royer so well known that it need not be named. He died in 1806. Jonathan Grout, jun. , was the oldest son of Hon. Jonathan Grout. After leaving college, he taught for a time ; and " to his thorough and effective mode of teaching some of the most impor- tant rudiments of our language, " writes Rev. Dr. Willard, " I was more indebted than to that of any other man. " For many subse- quent years, he was engaged in planning and applying a mode of telegraphic communication; but, it is believed, without realizing much, if any, pecuniary profit.
