DORR, Charles Hazen 1821-1893 Nov. 19, 1938. I had the rare good fortune of having in my father and my mother two people with a delightful gift of narrative. What they told of lived. My father was the more reserved but he had a delightful sense of humor and I find myself still at stories he told me of his youth objectively always, for of his inner self I never heard him talk. It was too intimate and personal. My mother had a wonderful gift of description and drew a wide circle of younger folks about her always when she was in the mood to talk. So that between them the time of their own childhood lived again for me. My mother had wonder description power, making feel with her what she had felt herself and felt again in recording it. But neither she nor any of my grandfather/ Ward's family which had the gift of humor,/my father and his sister, my much-loved anut, had so strongly. I have often thought wherein it was that humor lay. It is I think the faculty of seeing things from two contrasting points of view and with detschment, not taking them too seriously. Humor needs sympathy, it involves it; but if the sympathy be too strong or the situation 2. too serious, humor is lost in sympathy. And this forms a criterion by which one can judge men's degree of development. But humor passes into irony, loosing an the kindly quality that is for me/essential feature. William James had wit, often with a shing; his wife could see be amusing had humor and http/intimately/as the lit up some story She was telling. I remember one such occasion when she told how she and her daughter Beggy, a naturally reserved and introspective person, and a dressmaker staying in the house got intoxicated on some mushrooms they had gatherd on the lawn and of the way they acted with unextinguishable laughter while the dressmaker's assistant, who had not partaken, wrung her hands in anguish and begged them to be sober. Prof. Royce, the philosopher, and colleague of William James at Harvard, talked with infinite humor when he was then in the mood and was/most amusing to listen to, as well as interesting, but he rebelled in indignation when it was directed against things he took seriously, for seious- ness was the very essence of his nature.

My father was Charles Hazen Dorr, of Boston, the youngest son of Samuel Dorr, a merchant trading in West India goods during his earlier life; andclater, president of the New England Bank which he had taken part in founding, a memberas Representative and Senator of the Massachusetts Legislature, of whomo more is told elsewhere, and of Mary Grey Ward, his wife, daughter of Thomas Wren Ward of Boston, originally of Salem, a sea captain sailing on ships owned by William Grey of Salem, and his father, Captain William Ward of Salem in his early life; then a merchant on his own account in New York and Boston; finally, agent for Baring Brothers in America till the business was taken over by his son Samuel Grey Ward, my mother's older brother; Interestered in public matters awlays, he was treasurer of Harvard College for twelve years and treasurer of the Boston Antheneum Library. My father was born in his father's house near the waterfront, looking out over the harbor, a residential section then, in a house his father sold three years 'after to purchase one on Tremont Street near the foot 2. of Park Street, a residential section also at that time though wholly given up to business now these many years. My father and mother were married on 1850. Buying land soon and building a home for themselves on the eastern shore of Jamaica Pond. A beautiful location fronting through tall trees the sunset veew across the lake from the top of a steep bank. There my older brother, William Ward Dorr, and I were born. He in and I on the 19th of December, 1853 during a wild snowstorm through whose deep drifts my father plowed his way on foot to carry the good news to my grandfather Ward then living, with my grandmother, in his Park Street home, my father's parents having died years earlier. So much for introduction. I came into conscious life at three o'clock that stormy morning and have remained in it till now through a period of many changes whose issuance none can see. My brother and were brought up in Jamaica Plains Ward until 1861, when, my grandmother/having died and my grandmother left alone, we moved to Boston, occupying 3. his house on Park Street for a time, then building our own house on Back Bay, on Commonwealth Avenue close beyond the public garden which was our winter home thereafter till my parents had died and I have lived in it alone a dozen years, carrying on the old traditions of hospitality and friendly living a tradition for which the house had gained a reputation during my parents lifetime. My brother and I were sent, as the general custom day was in these days, to a boys school, a famous school it was in its time, kept by Dixwell, himself son of an old 6hina merchant of my grandfather's time and from there we went, according again to the Boston tradition of our day, to Harvard College, my brother leaving after two years to study architecture abroad and I, my course interrupted by a muscular trougle in my eyes, when I also a winter abroad with my father, while my brother returned to Beston for a winter with my mother who could not leave herself on account of my grandmother, which did not prevent my taking my A B degree in due course however, my father reading to me while we stayed abroad, history being the subject I had specialized upon for my concluding college years, the elective system having been just introduced by 4. President Eliot. This gave me a strongb bias afterward toward historic study, strengthened by living and travelling abroad with my parent during the next several years, my brothe having died of a sudden fever while studying law in Louis Delafieldis office in New York where he was making an excellent start. It was owing to his death that we stayed on abroad, my father not wishing to take my mother back while her loss was fresh. When at last we did return, in the autumn of 1878, it was to choose a sigh at Bar Harbor and build our Oldfarm house. During these years abroad, limited in the amount of reading I could do myself by reason of this difficulty with my eyes, my father and I read together widely in the field of European history, talking over what we read and the thoughts that sprang from At, visiting scene we read about and my mother, who was one of the best readers I have ever known in French and English literature, read with me the old books she cared for and the new books which she found interesting. So that for me those years that might have been barren else were rich. 5. What I would like to tell is of them, the places we visited the books we read, the thoughts that came to us. And to do this rightly I must go back, too, and tell somewhat of the time that went before, when my mother specially was reading actively all that lay within her reach of the poetry of her time, of its religion and new thought, and of the fiction that portrayed its life. It was an extraordinarily XXFRI wide field that opened out to us in this way, sympathetic as we were together and living in a great midst of a great period of change and new development. My parents both were born into the midst of what is called the Romantic Period of English literature, a great period compared with any other that I know, the great period in Greece apart, and a period of extraordinary change in the world's religious attitude of thinking men and women which in the end must shape the whole world thought. We are producing no great literature today nor are likely to while such rich fields are opening up in science and socialogy. It is enough to live and watch development or take part in them if one feels one make contributions. I am not interested in the 6. detail of facts, whether in the past or present; it is the great fundemental questions that hold my interest, of life and existence. Since my days at Harvard in the early 1870s a vast panorama has been spread before us and we do not know how to interpret it. We cannot go back to the old and we cannot penetrate the two but must wait for it to unfold itself. Philosophy cannot deal with it and it is but an idle word when the attempt is made. The inconceivable envelops us and all we can do is to relate the different aspects of our existence, one within another. The time we spent abroad was rich to me and to us all in its revelation of the past in terms of human experience which includes above all the emotional side of life to which facts are but the frame and the question that continually thrusts itself upon me in these later days is why, but there are none x to answer it, few to comprehend the import of the question. The old philosophies do not touch it. They revolve in a world of their own making / with nothing positive to build upon though I feel that we can say with certainty that certain things are not. And that after all is much. But within our world, foundationless though it be, I feel we can be positive, and must be positive, in determining values. And values are not material but spiritual. And hence they too spring Dict. List # Dictaphone. 19- August 5th. That whole summer's journey, coming when it did at the end of boyhood and reading had made me ripe for new experience, widened my horizon and gave me the background for much future reading. It sketched in the background for much historic reading, partly my own, partly with my father for whom the past held always a great interest. His interest rather in the fact of history; mine rather as I grew older in its causes and its meaning. He read XXXX/ aloud admirably and delighted in reading to us, my brother and myself, such things as he enjoyed himself for their poetry or humor. So it was a great boon to me that we were together on our trip that summer, sharing in the interest of what we saw. What the summer did for me, brief vacation period though it was, was to start me on lines of reading and thinking and questioning which reached to the ever- man's widening limits of bur knowledge of himself and of his past and of the world he lives in. I was fifteen at that time and had been a wide reader all my life, making others read to me exep/before I could read myself. fairy stories x, tales of imagination and t ales of adventure, clean and wholesome stories all, according to my understanding of them. How truly, I began to ask myself did they interrupt life? And my answer after a long lifetime is that they interrupt man truly if not the world he lives in. That is, they interrupted as something other than a mechanism dealing with a world of fact; they interrupt him as a being compact of imagination, rich in heroic possibilities not limited by our present knowledge. On the other hand, they picture him as living in a world defined by laws we only dimly understand and controlled by necessities we cannot alter for they are part of own existence and all existent. To discover these is the true goal of history, as it is of science. And all that is bea tiful and good is as much a part of that existence as what worked to our unhappiness. There is a spiritual guide to life we cannot fathom and we cannot limit. And as it is infinite like all existence, no boundaries can be certain. Dict List nor. 23 1938 18 Wednesday Evening c.1- C. Dorr This quest after the homes of his ancestors and reading of the time in which they lived in change which my father took keen interest opened up before me an understanding and intimate vision of the past which has stayed by me always. It is of such that real history is made, not the wars and cruelties and dynastic changes that are given U.S so commonly but the lives and conditions of individual men, their thoughts and feelings. And intermingled with this was the interest of scenery% in a land with a far background of several occupation. Roman 1/2 and Celtic, Saxon and Norman, all making their separate contri- bution toward the time we live in, and in turn are formed by. History in the one form is looking at people collectively as they are grouped in nations or tribes; they are not real but abstractions of the mind. In the other sense, the personal sense they are individual and real endowed with 77ttl life and feeling, like to our- selves. And it is only by living with people in such sin guise that we really know them. This is the of history that interested me, bringing back the 2 people of the past to life. That is what my father and myself sought to do with our ancestors and succeeded in doing to some slight degree. But it the world was very different to them from what/is to us, It was all very real and simple; they had no conception, near to us as they are in generation and in point of time, of the universe we know, and with our knowledge of it, it has become impossible to see things with their eyes, though we may feel with them with that sympathy which makes all life akin as it rises to our level or we to its. In trying to do this we learned a lot , both of them and of ourselves. It is extraordinary how swift the change has been in the outlook of thoughtful men, for whom the new discoveries of science have created a new world while yet making nothing clear. The advance is largely negative; we know, as our Puritan & ancestors did not that much they believed drew in and formed a picture of the universe they het for themselves cannot be, but we do know what is, except that it is not that. And in some ways they dream more greatly than we now can, and so it was that they created the great structures that they did, temples of worship to the living God. But yet perhaps not which more greatly than we shall, the world is to come. on' Dictaphone December 26, 1938. 7. Totake in Our summer in 1875 in England was a very happy one. We did what we set out to do, searching out -- my father and I -- the homes. of town and countryside whence his ancestors and mine had come; searching out the beautiful manor houses and gardens for which England was still famous in those days; visiting the rivers, lakes and regions famous in English prose and verse; and searching out the ruined abbeys of the land telling pleasantly of its former beauty, and visiting its great cathedrals of the Gothic period. From first to last, our summer had been full of interesting and beautiful sights and leaving us with memories we were never to lose of the most varied character and deepest human interest. It is rare that one can say 86 much of any period in / one's life, and it was only because of we were so much in sympathy and shared so largely in a common background of reading and, for desires and my father and mother, of/interests long postponed that it was possible. One must travel with others, and with others thoroughly sympathetic with ourselves to get the full value and enjoyment out of travel. One must share in order to appreciate, and the people one can share with happily are few. lof4 Heancock. S. S. VOL. 85 Probate Court LL. S.)

Those years of intimate companionship abroad with my father and my mother, moving quietly about from place to place of interest or beauty as the spirit prompted, reading much and thinking much, were among the richest of my life and laid the foundation deep for future growth and study. That is the reason why my memory now turns back to them with 80 much particularity. My father was what Chaucer would have calle d 'a verra parfait gentleman with constant thought for others, broad human interests, and no thought for self, though full of the capacity for great enjoyment in all things beautiful and good. He lived together constantly as we travelled on, in the humours of the moment, in our appreciation and the thoughtsour travel roused. My mother was of a very different nature, not given as I to argument and reason nor patient of them, but arriving straight at her conclusions by passages of intuition all alone. This was not due so much to the fact that she was a woman as to inheritance, in which the artistic strain was strong and the warm interest in human life. In this she was remarkable; people came to her always for sympathy and help in their times of trouble for she was strong to lean upon. 2. / But we all three had great reserves, even from each other, and lived our own lives out, not readily opening ourselves out to others. The period I wa.s born into was one of extra- ordinary development in scientific thought, as that of the generation which had gone before me was in its breaking away from old religious views and dogmas. This last had led my grandfather to Unitary/mm my grandfather on my mother's side, to his father's great concern. But behind the Unitar of that time lay the attitude of an earlier period **** which accepted all on face and did not question. The lack of warmth and colour had led my mother at the time when I was born to join the Episcopal Church, but this with her was a matter of feeling, not logical conviction. All that was spiritual, leaving dogma apart, aroused her deepest interest; for the spiritual wa.8 to her breath of life, and had been always from garlhood on. My father needed, truly, none to tell him what wa8 xxp right or wrong in spiritual matters; he did the right intuitively, needing no instruction.

When the club took possession of its present quarters at #8 Park Street [former residence of Abbott Lawrence] on Oct. 15, 1863, the work of preparing the club-house for use chiefly devolved on five men, including Samuel G.

None of them, SO far as I have been able to ascertain, has previously been published, either during Lowell's lifetime or subsequently. It is probable that in some cases their author simply forgot their exist- ence; they had been sent off in letters as special mementos to friends, and Lowell, not being one to copy off and cherish every scrap from his pen, thereafter probably lost sight of them. But it is clear that he would not have published some of them even had he re- called their existence; the "Spanish" poems, for example, were meant to be exercises in the language, and nothing more. The question naturally arises as to which, if any, of the poems should be printed now. Some are close to doggerel and are not likely to improve Lowell's reputation. A few of the more nostalgic or humorous pieces have real merit, but the primary justification for publishing this collection is historical-that is, to "complete the record" and to gain additional biographical insight into the author.2 The poems are arranged chronologically, with four undated items placed at the end. 1 For a full listing, see "Acknowledgments" at the end of note 40. In using the historical canon as a basis for judgment, it perhaps would have been logical to include every fragment available. Yet I have not done so, for six or seven bits which I came across were so incomplete or trivial, that I could see no purpose-even historical-in publishing them. A few unknown poems by Lowell of greater import are also absent from this collection. Two of these were sent by him (in letters of Jan. 6, 1884, and Oct. 18, 1889) to Julia Stephen, wife of Leslie Stephen, and a great favorite of Lowell in his later years. They are part of a large group of Lowell-Stephen letters recently acquired by the Berg Collection of the New York Public Library, which the trustees are thinking of putting out in a complete edition. I have also not included the unpublished poems by Lowell owned by the University of Texas, for these are being edited by Professor Philip Graham and will appear shortly in Texas Studies in Literature and Language.

Samuel Dorr, Second Son of Hon. Joseph Dorr From Memorandum Written by Charles Hazen Dorr Son of Samuel Dorr in 1887. Samuel Dorr was born the 23rd of June, 1774, in Mendon, Massachusetts, in the house built by his grand- father, the Rev'd Joseph Dorr, in which his father, the Hon. Joseph Dorr, had been born. There he lived until he was twelve years old, when his father moved to Ward, now Auburn. At sixteen years of age he entered the store of Parkman & Brigham, in Westborough, Massachusetts, about twenty miles from Boston along the line of the present Boston & Albany Railroad. Parkman & Brigham were among the leading merchants of New England in that day, large importers and distrib- utors of goods from the West Indies and elsewhere, with a good New England clientele.

DUBERMAN Prem VII is for Princeton University Charles Hapen Dorr 3/11/69 TH HE TWENTY-SEVEN POEMS by Lowell gathered here come from a wide variety of public and private manuscript collections. 1 None of them, SO far as I have been able to ascertain, has previously been published, either during Lowell's lifetime or subsequently. It is probable that in some cases their author simply forgot their exist- ence; they had been sent off in letters as special mementos to friends, and Lowell, not being one to copy off and cherish every scrap from his pen, thereafter probably lost sight of them. But it is clear that he would not have published some of them even had he re- called their existence; the "Spanish" poems, for example, were meant to be exercises in the language, and nothing more. The question naturally arises as to which, if any, of the poems should be printed now. Some are close to doggerel and are not likely to improve Lowell's reputation. A few of the more nostalgic or humorous pieces have real merit, but the primary justification for publishing this collection is historical-that is, to "complete the record" and to gain additional biographical insight into the author.2 The poems are arranged chronologically, with four undated items placed at the end. 1 For a full listing, see "Acknowledgments" at the end of note 40. 2 In using the historical canon as a basis for judgment, it perhaps would have been logical to include every fragment available.

Dorr will Yesterday I looked at the Charles H. Dorr will. He leaves all his personal and real property to his wife Mary. However if she should die before him he leaves his entire estate to his son George B. And if both his wife and son pre-deceased him then his executor Charles P. Bowditch was to establish a trust (and empowered essentially to liqudiate all of his - Charles - assets ). . At his death Charles left a personal estate of $19,155.11 (included furniture and silver valued at $8,000. and various accounts). It may be useful to trace the Thomas Wren Ward probate (Administration #42632) and who is heirs were and how much his estate was valued at. Then trace those heirs, including his daughter Mary G.

Our office oversees the permanent records of the state court system, including the Probate records, First Series (1643 -1894) for Suffolk County. You indicate that you have seen the probate record filed in Hancock County, ME for Charles H. Dorr and that the same will was also filed in Suffolk County, MA. Were the provisions in the will concerning his property, real and personal, at 18 Commonwealth Ave. in this same will? You indicate that Charles H. Dorr's widow, Mary continued to retain the above property until her death in October, 1901 when the Commonwealth Ave. property was bequeathed in her will to her son George Bucknam Dorr. I assume that you have already read through the entire probates for both the Dorr's which were filed at the Suffolk County Probate Department (docket #92160 Charles Hazen and docket # 118788 Mary G. W. Dorr) You might also want to look at the Docket Book for each probate to see what was filed and compare it against what you have already seen. (There may have been a schedule A and B filed that gave some information on the value of the estate) Given that there appears not to be other real or potential direct heirs to place claims on the estate it would not be unusual for there not to be an inventory of the estate or appraisal of its worth. Furthermore, since there were no liens or other actions against either estate for unpaid debts there would be no requirement to list property, personal or real which could be sold at auction to satisfy creditors. Regarding the Commonwealth property. You might want to start with who the current owners are and then go backwards in a search of the Grantee/Grantor indices at the Registry of Deeds office. You might first check Boston City Directories to note whether George B. Dorr gave #18 as his legal residence and then see when he was last listed at that address. Or he may have had a caretaker and not lived there at all. If I can be of any further assistance please do not hesitate to contact me.

Peterson, Superintendent of Mount Auburn Cemetery, we are pleased to advise you in regard to the placing of a memorial stone to mark the interment of Elizabeth Hind. That grave is in the rear of the lot. Three flat marble stones, 1-10 X 1-0, without carving, are aligned with each other in the front portion of the plot. If it is desired to have a stone exactly similar to these, which are all a like, the cost would be $45 including lettering and delivery to the lot. We quote the records on the stones now there for your information: MARY GRAY WARD DORR BORN IN BOSTON WILLIAM WARE DORR ON SEPTEMBER 29, 1820 DIED MAY 15, 1876 DIED IN BOSTON AGED 25 YRS. ON OCTOBER 21, 1901 CHARLES HAZEN DORR BORN IN BOSTON ON AUGUST 27, 1821 DIED IN BOSTON ON JANUARY 28, 1893 These inscriptions are according to the old style of arrangement. Now only years of birth and death are generally considered more desirable as: ELIZABETH HIND 1806 - 1879 Since this stone will be at the rear of the lot and away from the other stones, it would seem to be quite all right to use another design or type of stone.

Dorr - 2 - December 14, 1934 A flat plain marker of Barre Granite instead of marble, of the same dimensions as the present stones, would cost $45. This granite is grayish-white and would correspond well with the present stones, with the advantage of being less likely to be damaged. Granite is generally considered preferable to marble for markers set flush with grade. This marker is exemplified by the photo #6318, except that the top of the stone would set flush with the ground. However, it might set a few inches above sod as shown, if you prefer to have it that way. With a line enclosing the inscription as in #4926, the cost is $ 50. Another upright design of marker is #5882 which is 1-10 long and 1-0 high. This stone costs $50 with the face plain without carving. Possibly you may wish a small headstone composed of two pieces. These are about 1-6 high. We enclose sketches of such stones. Design #560 in Berkeley Blue (Georgia Granite) is $75, and the same design exclusive of carving is $90 in Westerly Granite. Berkeley Blue is manufactured in the South so that costs are lower. In appearance it is gray, not unlike Barre. While we recommend Barre more highly, Berkeley Blue is a satisfactory stone. Our suggestion would be to use a granite marker like #4926 to set flush with the ground, or an upright stone with a base as sketched in Barre Granite. I trust this information will assist you and we shall be glad to follow your wishes entirely.

I've done a quick search and can provide the following at this time. Search Shortcuts My Photos According to papers deposited by George B. Dorr (1853-1944) at the New England Historic Genealogical Society, a biographical essay by Mr. Dorr about My Attachments his father Charles Hazen Dorr begins as follows: Charles Hazen Dorr, youngest son of Samuel Dorr, was born in Boston on August 27th, 1821, in his father's house overlooking the harbor. He was named for his uncle by marriage, Charles Hazen, the husband of his moither's younger sister, Elizabeth Brown. His mother was Susan Brown, born in Boston August 16th, 1779, the eldest child of Joseph Lazinby Brown and his wife, Susannah Adams, in their house on Middle Street, now Hanover Street, at the North End. Another essay on "The Honorable Samuel Dorr--Home of Samuel Dorr, in Boston-Adams-Lazinby-Brown," contains more information which I will photocopy and send off to you this coming week. I'll also include aMemoir of J. Brown published in he Memoirs of the Social Circle in Concord, 2nd Series. Cambridge: Riverside Press, 1888. Pp. 1-14. There are additional essays in the NEHGS archives on Charles Hazen Dorr, the culture of Boston in the late 17th and early 18th century. One other essay on "Children of Samuel Dorr by his First Marriage," refers to the fact that "Samuel Fox Dorr married, on May 26th, 1835, Elizabeth Chipman Hazen, daughter of Charles Hazen and niece of his father's second wife. They had two sons, Samuel, born July 11th, 1836, and Hazen, born November 30th, 1837. Both went to Harvard, where the elder, Samuel, graduated in 1857. The younger, Hazen, a lad of rare promise, died the night of Junje 7th, 1856, alone in his room at Cambridge, of some sudden seizure that came without warning and whose nature was never clearlyy understood. Of him my father [C harles Hazen Dorr] wrote: 'I loved him very dearly, and as he grew older had him http://us.f842.mail.yahoo.com/ym/ShowLetter?Search=&Idx=28&YY=12142&y5beta=yes 4/9/2008 Verizon Yahoo!

I grieved for him when he died as though he were my own, and to his mother, my favorite cousin, it came as a great blow.," Does this help? Can you point me in the direction of additional Hazen family online or hardcopy documentation? Dorr's father is a rathewr elusive historical figure and anything you can supply to flesh out his character would help, especially financial or legal documents that indicate the "money trail." I look forward to hearing from you, Stanley. Ron Epp Ronald H. Epp, Ph.D. 47 Pond View Drive Merrimack, NH 03054 (603) 424-6149 eppster2@verizon.net Delete Reply Forward Move.

Ron Archives (27) on my way to the weekly Wednesday lunch with fellow radio amateurs. Many thanks. Search Shortcuts Upon checking "The Hazen Family in America," I found your My Photos Charles Hazen. His father was William Hazen, who moved from Boston to New Brunswick at the time of the Revolution. My Attachments "The Book" states that, although William was sympathetic to the rebels' cause, he felt the need to move in order to protec his considerable maritime shipping interests. The vast majority of Canadian Hazens are William's descendants. You'll find Charles on page 177 of "The Hazen " General Moses Hazen of the Revolution was an older brother of William. I was instrumental in getting the original MSS that led to the publication of the 1947 book donated to NEHGS. The collection is catalogued there as MSS 406. A question - what evidence do you have for Elizabeth Brown's having been born in Boston? "The Book" states "..born at Concord [?] I don't disbelieve you, but I'd love to have direct evidence. From what you sent, Boston seems more probable. According to "The Book," Elizabeth Brown was Charles Hazen's first wife. Thirteen months after she died, Charles is stated to have married her sister Nancy, two years junior to Elizabeth. Thank you again very much.
