"DIED--At Lyme, on the 11th ultimo, John Noyes, Esq. in the 52d year of his age. He was graduate of Yale College 1775. From 1782 to 1798 he was a Physician in the Continental army. Settling in his native town he was extensively improved, and successful in the healing art ; and variously employed in civil life. Possessing a sound judgment and firm mind, he was an impartial minister of justice, the friend of civil and religious order, and filled up life with activity and usefulness ; the liberal and hospitable man and good neighbor, were amiable parts of his character. In him the community have lost a patriot and the church of Christ an ornamental member. With christian patience and fortitude he endured a lingering and distressing sickness ; and in a well founded hope of immortality, resigned his spirit into the hand of his Redeemer."
