Samuel Austin Worcester, the .sou of llev. 

 Leonard "Worcester, was born at Worcester, 

 Mass., January 19, 1708, removing to Peachaiii, 

 Vt., when quite young, his father, who had 

 been a printer, having been appointed pastor 

 of tlie Congregational Clmrch at that place. In 

 the fall of 1815 he entered the University of 

 Vermont at Burlington and graduated with 

 the honors of his class in 1819. In ISil ho 

 entered the Theological Seminary at Andover, 

 graduating in 1823, and w.as ordained to the 

 ministry August 25, 1825. 



On July 19, 1825, ho was married to Miss Aun 

 Orr, of Bedford, N. H., and together, on August 

 31 of that year, they started from Boston to en- 

 gage in missionary work among the Chorokees, 

 arriving at Braiuerd, East Tennessee, October 

 25, remaining there until 1828, when they re- 

 moved to New Ecbota, where a printing ])ress 

 was sot up and put into operation. Wliile liere 

 he was arnssted and imi)risoned several times 

 because of bis opposition to the laws of Georgia 

 in relalion to the Cheiokce lanils. 



In 1884 Dr. Worcester returned to Brainoid, 

 beyond the cliarterod limits of (Jeorgia, and in 

 1835 with his family removed to Dwight, Ind. 



Worcester (S. A.) — Continued. 



Ter., and in the succeeding fall to Union Mis- 

 sion, on Grand Iliver, where ho again set up 

 Ills mission press and had printing done both 

 for tlie Cherokees and Creeks. In Dec, 1S36, he 

 removed to Park Hill, from which mission most 

 of the i)ublicatious in Cherokee were issued. 



Mrs. Worcester having died May 23, 1840, 

 about a year later ho was married to Miss 

 Erminia Nash. Dr. Worcester died at Park 

 Ilill, where he is buried, April 20, 1859. 



Miss Nevada Couch, in lier Pages of Chi-ro- 

 kee Indian History, from which the above notes 

 are taiien, says: "Ho at one time commenced 

 prepaiing a geography for the Cherokees, and 

 piu'sued it with much zest fur a while, and 

 abandoned it because ho saw it woulil take too 

 much time from his work on the Bilde. He had 

 both a grammar and .a dictionary of the Chero- 

 kee language in a forward state cf preparation, 

 when he was cumprlled to leave the place of his 

 labors at New Echota. These manuscripts, 

 witli all the rest of his effects, were sunk with 

 a steamboat on the Arkansas." 



It is very probable that he w. s the translator 

 of a number of books for which he is not given 

 credit here, especially those portions of the 

 scripture which are herein not assigned to any 

 name. Indeed it is safe to say that daring the 

 thirty -four years of his connection with the 

 Clierokees but little was done iu the way of 

 translating in whicli he had not a share. Ills 

 daughter, Mrs. A. E. W. Eobertson, has been a 

 laboier and tencher among the Muskoki In- 

 dians for many years, and lias ])repared an 1 

 published a number of books in that language.
