Dickinson, of Worcester, Massachusetts,) on May 18th, 1807: "This day, thirty years ago, I first left my father's house with the re- cruits to join the army at Ticonderoga. I was then under sixteen years of age, but zealous in the cause of my country. Between fourteen and fifteen months I was in the American Revolutionary Army. I review the various scenes in which I have been interested with wonder and astonishment, and I hope, with humble gratitude." Rev Timothy Dickinson, who was ahead of the times, also cared for my 5th Great Grandfather, Sambo Freeman on his death bed in Holliston Mass. I received this information from a book titled "Holliston A Good Town" given to me by the gracious author Joanne Hulbert. Our family will be forever appreciative of her special spirit and gift. Rev Dickinson's diary also reports that my grand father stated that this was "his last sickness". Rev Timothy Dickinson then states in his diary that Sambo died the next day in his parlor and wrote about his funeral that he also attended in which Sambo was buried with great dignity and honor. Sambo, pronounced Zambo, was a former slave of William and Bethia Burgess. He was baptised the same day with a slave by the name of London on 16 Sep 1739. "Holliston a Good Town" quotes Rev Dickinson's diary and states, "I baptised London and Sambo, Negroes, The former, ye negro of Jasper Adams, ye later ye negro of William Burgess" Hx of Medway. Rev Nathan Bucknam London's former owner". Sambo was later sold to John Adams whom Sambo purchased his freedom from for 140 shillings in 1754. My grandfather fought in the French and Indian war along side the Rockwood family whom it is stated he fished with. Grandfather later married Eleanor Donhue former wife of Cuff Oxford of Framingham Mass. They had my descendant Phillip Freeman. Sambo Freeman, whom I am so incredibly proud of, also signed one of the few rare slave petitions in existence to date which can be viewed online. To the Dickinson family. Rev Timothy Dickinson truly was ahead of the times, his diary is a valueable gem, and thank you. With Humble Gratitude Martha Hazard-Small
