the memory of a kind and affectionate Parent, his chil-
dren . have caused this monu-
ment to be erected.
This veteran wae too young for the record given by Chase. In the Mass. rolls one who enlisted in 1780 fits best, being then 17 years old, of light complexion, and 5 feet 5 inches high. He served also in '81-'82. Gen Hall came from Great Barrington, Mass., settling about a mile south of La Fayette village, and building the second frame house in the town in 1801. Traditionally he brought half a bushel of silver dollars with him, bought land and raised cattle. His property was valued at $70,000 at his death,--a large sum then. He was born in New Marlborough, Mass., and his first wife was Vashtey Johnson, mother of Judge Johnson Hall.
