For against the somewhat [521 The Mystery of the Bell Tavern somber background of her New England period this Hartford girl stands forth with a flash of brilliancy and charm. In the midst of a some- what limited and narrow social life, she was an individualist, an exotic. In contrast with her Puritan environment she seems almost Hellenic — yet one fancies that there is something about her more Gallic than Greek. She was the eldest of the three daughters of the Rev. Elnathan Whitman, D. D. , a F...ellow of Yale College, and pastor from 1732 till his death in 1777 of the Second Church in Hartford. It is a singular coincidence that through her mother, born Abigail Stanley, she traced kin- ship to the Charlotte Stanley who was the original of ' 'Charlotte Temple. " Her father was a grandson of that noted divine, Solomon Stod- dard of Northampton, who, it will be remem- bered, was the grandfather of Jonathan Edwards. John Trumbull, the poet and judge, was a cousin and so was Aaron Burr. Besides these, the Pierreponts, the Whitneys, the Ogdens, the Russells, the Wadsworths, were all kin or con- nected by marriage.
