Brief Life History of Paul
John Brooks and Joseph Woodman, committee, laid out a triangular lot of 104- acres for a ministerial lot, in 1762. This was afterwards the homestead of Rev. Mr. Coffin. The letter of acceptance addressed to the committee is frank, brief, and expressive, giving us an insight into his character, and in strong contrast with the usual sermon-like letters of his day, written on such occasions :
"To THE PROPR" of NARRAGANSETT TOWNSHIP No. 1, GENT»: "Having concidered the Invitation you Gave me to Settle in this place in the Capacity of a minister of the Gospell, & Pastor of the Church to be Gathered here; and having never heard of any Uneasiness among the people here about my Doctrine or manner of life, I declare myself pleased with your Invitation, & ready to Settle as aboves'd, as soon as may be Judged Convenient.
" From, Gentl", Your Friend & Servt in the Gospel, Paul Coffin."
Narragansett No. 1, Jan-y 31, 1763.
Previous to receiving the call from this parish, Mr. Coffin had preached to them. His first sermon, as well as the first in the new church, was delivered March 22, 1761. He was at that time twenty-three years of age. His ordination took place in the church March 9, 1763, the exercises being conducted by Rev. Mr. Fairfield, Rev. Daniel Little, Rev. Moses Morrill, and Rev. Mr. Hemmenway, the two latter coming through Hollis and Lyman the day before on snow- shoes, and, by getting lost, passing the night in the woods. A plentiful entertainment was prepared at the expense of the proprietors, except for the meat, which was a moose, donated by Mr. James Emery, who used to .say that he " took his dog and went hunting, and caught a moose and a minister."
The first marriage recorded by him was that of Daniel Leavitt and Abigail Bradbury, May 5, 1763. The first baptism was that of "Abagail, daughter of Daniel Leavitt and Abigail, his wife," May 6, 1764. Ebenezer Bean, of the Block-House, was married to Elizabeth Thomas, of Narragansett No. 1, June 27, 1763.
Dr. Coffin was a learned man, a thorough master of Latin, Hebrew, Greek, and the French languages, and counted among his friends the most eminent men of his day. In 1799 he delivered the annual election-sermon, in Boston, before the Governor, Council, and House of Rep- resentatives. He outlived all but four of his original congre-gation. A note annexed to one of his manuscript sermons dated Oct. 22, 1820, reads: "This sermon may be called Valedictory dd :" He was born Jan. 16, 1737, 0. S., graduated at Harvard in 1759, and died June 6, 1821.
