ELEAZAR WHEELOCK'S HOUSE

The following is an extract from the Hartford Com ant: "H. W. Porter has bought of Henry Williams the property on Columbia River, Columbia, Conn., known as the Roger Loomis place, and will take possession at once. While the buildings .are old, the location is an ideal one for a fine. residence. The house is said to have been the residence of Eleazar Wheelock, D. D., for thirty-five years pastor of the Columbia Congregational church, from 1733 to 1779, and founder of the Indian Missionary-School in Columbia, then known as 'Lebanon Crank' which led to the establishment of Dartmouth College."
