The subsequent imprisonment of Mr. Dorr was ex- ceedingly distasteful to him. He exerted himself to procure his release, by circulating petitions, &c. ; but his course did not suit the uncompromising views of Mr. Dorr, and was unavailing. Immediately after the passage of the act of liberation, he visited Mr. Dorr as physician and Mend. On the outbreak of civil war, in 1861, he offered his services as surgeon, in a letter to Governor Sprague. He was commissioned, in June, 1861, surgeon of the Pr...ovidence Horse Guards. He followed the varying fortunes of the conflict with intense interest. At the time of the presidential election, in 1868, his last ill- ness had begun ; he had been confined to the house sixteen days, and walked with difficulty, leaning on his son's arm. The warden came down from the ward room, and met him in the lower entry, where a chair had been arranged, and he gave his last vote, for Grant and Colfax. From an early age, he was interested in tracing the history and genealogy of his family.
