Book Description
Excerpt from Biographical Notice of Stephen J. Field: Taken Partly From the Records of the Family of the Late Rev. David D. Field, of Stockbridge, Mass Now, for the first time in the history of our family, death came into the household. In the midsummer of 1815 (july 11) was born a fifth son, to whom, in honor of a venerable minister of Connecticut, was given the name of stephen johnson. He lived but a little over five months, dying on Christmas day of the same year. It was a bitter sorrow to the bereaved parents, and so deeply did they feel it that, when they removed to Stock bridge, the sharpest pang was the thought that they should leave that babe behind. More than thirty years afterward my father made a journey to Connecticut, to take up that little form, and bear it tenderly over the mountains, and lay it down again beside its kindred dust. This early grief consecrated the memory of that child, so that when a sixth son was born, November 4, 1816, his parents gave him the same name. He, too, was of a mould so delicate and fragile as gave little promise that he could ever reach manhood. For a time it seemed doubtful if he could live. The old dames who came around his cradle shook their heads, and told his mother that she could never raise that child! But her love watched him night and day - no hired attendant ever took her place - and carried him through the perils of infancy. Nothing but that incessant care saved him; so that he has always had reason to feel that, in a double sense, he owed his life to his mother.
