CAPTAIN BENJAMIN CLARE.—In answer to one of "Inquirers" inquiries iu the RE PORTER. asking for a sketch of Capt. B. CLARE, I would contribute the following items, hoping they may aid some of our Ulster friends in completing the sketch sought for. f • • BENJAMIN CLARE cane from Hebron,, ,Hartford county, Conn., and was among the very first settlers on the town.plot of Wilkes Barre. In a paper written by the late Judg STEvEss of Standing Stone, he says. in the month of April, 1773, his father, Lieut. ASA. STEITENs,- who was killed in the Wyoming battle, ''moved into a house erected on the Wilkes Barre Town Plot. Previous thereto only two houses bad been erected thereon. In one of them resided STEPHEN FULLEB, and hi the other Bs.l.,t.ists•Chsex. Near the lower, or sontbzwest corner of the plot, were two more houses, in one lived JAunz SILL, with his family, and in the other two brothers, .1.03Ez and EinstrA Prim, single men.- The above was at that time the whole population of what is now - the Borough (city). of Wilkes Barre." It is worthy of mention that each of these fain: ibex are represented is this county.

Wm. totatEaT had been appointed in 1792, 'reacher =au extended mission -N ary circuit, embracing this county, and on the 8d lJanuary, 1793, he visited 4 ,91 d ,Sheshe u in," as Ulster was then called, and preached at the house of Capt. CLARK, and remarks "the woman ofithis house put melt" mind of Martha." '. Capt. CLARK was a small but active man, of quick temper, but honorable to Make all proper apologies and amends'for hasty wordi. I lie was twice married. I In tile old Westmoreland town records is the following reghter: I • "Births of 'the children of BENJ.6tIN CLARK and RAMIE (Annum) his wife: ' Jous THET I VIILUS, born July 8, 1770. Poia.v, bo February 24, 1772. 'f ' .N.anay, (Aitio.u) born Mach 3, 1774. SALLY and 3IILLY (twins), born March 5, 1777. i . NAI3BE, Wife of I3EIIiASIIN CLARK, 'de parted this life March 12, 1777, in the 24th year of her age." 1 Of these Joni: Married and settled in the townslipf Burlington, near Luth er's lillg; - P 0 .,. LY married a Blanchard and Anio.ol, a Cuixon, and both left :t he State. Capt. CLARK'S second marriage was to KEZIAU YANINGTON, widow Of ' SILAS thaw, who was killed in the battle of Wyoming. She was from Stonington, Ct., 'and by her first marriage had three da'ugh ter& 3lawrint, who married a brother of the late EISPNEXEIt SHAW; REBECCA, who married first JAMES BRAFFIT and after his death JOSEII BLOOM, and removed' to the State of Ohio; and LUCY, who married AVERY, son of Judge OREDIAII GORE and and lived in Sheshequin. Mrs. GORE was in the Forty-Fort , der ing the battle; Hearing that our men were defeated and expecting instant death should the infuriated savages gain posses sion of the fOrt, she, in company with Mrs. BIDLACK 1 Mts. DURKEE,and Mrs. Youx, went tolhe gate but were forbid den to pass. However, persisting in their demand, they vivre allowed, to go Tit. Finding a canoe on the bank of the river, the four families went on board and float ed down With ,the current until they reached a piece; of satifty. I By the squad marriage Capt. CLARK had one son and three daughters. The ' oldest daughter, LUCINDA, married NA THANIEL HOVEY, who came from Ccin necticut, probably from Windsor, and set- tied in Ulster hbout 1801. 'He removed from thence to Batavia, N. Y., enlisted as a'sergeant in the car of 1812, and* died at Sackett's Harbor in 1814. Rev. S. Iltivov, 'of Ulster, is his oldest son. The other children lof Capt. CLARK by this marriage removed west. I have been unable as yet to obtain the date of Capt. CL.uties death; •or I his age: Numerous . aneedotep ar e related of the old man, all of which-go to show that he was an lion- est, hard-working; christian man, who !is worthy Ito be remembered among the pi oneer settlers of the county.
