In 1834 he married Miss White Smith of Haverhill, Msss. From Waterville he went to Newton Center and was there about twelve years.

The hymn, from which he became famous, “My Country ’Tis of Thee,” he heard Sung'in every language in India it was written whilea Student at Andovor. This hymuis always sung at the annual dinner of his college class. Other hymns may be mentioned which he wrote, such as, “Yes, My Native LandI Love,” “Softly fades the twilight my," and “The morning light is breaking.” He is the author of the history of Newton, Mass, where he resided many years.
