:Thomas Edwin Whitney, A. M., of Shirley, Mass., a corresponding member, where he was born Nov. 1, 1825, and where he died Oct. 25, 1876, aged 50 years.

:His great-grandfather was the Rev. Phineas Whitney, the first settled minister of Shirley, a graduate of H. C. 1759. He died in 1819, after a ministry of fifty-seven years. Thomas, the eldest son of Rev. Phineas, who remained in Shirley during a long life, had three sons, of which the eldest, Thomas Whitney, Jr., who died Dec. 6, 1865, was the father of the subject of this sketch.

:Thomas Edwin Whitney was the only child of Thomas and Sally (Barrett) Whitney. His early education was in the common schools of his native town, and one or two terms in a Friends school, under the instruction of Mr. Jonathan Frye, of Bolton. He then entered the Groton Academy, where he was prepared for college. His collegiate course was at Harvard, from which he graduated in 1845. The childhood and early active life of Mr. Whitney were well worthy of imitation in view of his obedience as a child; his gentle social habits as a boy and young man; and his application and proficiency as a student. Returning to his native town, after finishing his collegiate course, he established a select school which he conducted with great ability and success, securing the strong attachment to his pupils for three or four terms. "Those who were well prepared to judge, declared that the teacher's calling was the appropriate sphere for the new graduate." He was led, however, to change the work for which his education had fitted him, and to enter upon the business of a broker, and then in the Nova Scotia trade. In these and other mercantile adventures he was unsuccessful. "Returning to his native town, he continued until his death to cultivate the broad acres which were his patrimonial inheritance." "Mr. Whitney was never married. His remains rest in the ancient cemetery of his native town, almost under the shadow of the church tower where his infant brow received the consecrating waters of baptism, and where he weekly engaged in public worship. The last of the name in the family line to which he belonged has been gathered to his fathers, and the dust of four generations has found one common resting place."

:His membership is from June 8, 1846.
