At the commencement of hostilities, he held the command of a com- pany of cavalry, which he had raised and organized, and joined the army with it at Cambridge in 1775. He remained with it till the Brit- ish troops evacuated Boston, when he returned to Sturbridge, and soon after was elected colonel of a regiment of cavalry, which office he held till he removed from the county. At the time of the insur- rection known as " Shay's Rebellion," he marched with a body of one hundred men, under Gen. Li...ncoln, in the winter of 1786-7, into the western counties, where he rendered prompt and essential service in suppressing that alarming but ill-judged outbreak. With the enlarged and patriotic views of Col. Crafts, the importance of educating the rising generation early attracted his attention. The people were about to assume the solemn trust of self-government, and to do this they should be able to understand the wants and duties of a free people. The condition of the Common Schools was depressed ; the number of public institutions for education was few ; and the* idea of estab- lishing such an institution in this county occupied his thoughts for some time before any measures were taken to accomplish it.
