HUBBELL, Martha Stone, author, b. in Ox-
ford, Conn., in 1814 ; d. in North Stonington, Conn.,
in 1856. She was the daughter of Dr. Noah Stone,
and married Rev. Stephen Hubbell in 1832. She

Shady Side, or Life in a Country Parsonage, by a

HUBBELL, William, pioneer, b. in Vermont
about 1750 ; d. in Scott county,' Ky., about 1835.
He served five years and a half in the Revolution-
ary army as private, sergeant, and lieutenant, -taking
part in the capture of St. John and Montreal and
in several skirmishes. After the close of the war
he removed to Kentucky and settled in Scott
county, where he resided until his death at an un-
usually advanced age. He is chiefly noted for his
contest with a band of Indians as he was returning
to Kentucky from the east. His party numbered
twenty. After passing Pittsburg he thought he
saw traces of Indians along the banks of the Ohio,
which suspicion was confirmed by information at
Gallipolis. Having been appointed regular com-
mander of the flat-bottomed boat in which they
voyaged, Capt. Hubbell divided the nine men into
three night-watches. Early in the night an Indian
canoe was seen, and more evidence of the approach
of hostile savages. On the following morning, 24
March, 1791, they were attacked by Indians in
large canoes. Each man took his position, having
been ordered not to fire till the savages were so
near that " the flash from the guns might singe
their eyebrows." After a bloody conflict, only two
of the nine men .escaping unhurt, they reached
Limestone. The fleet, which they had passed the
night before the battle, arrived the next day, the
Indians having suffered it to sail unmolested. It
is believed that after Hubbell's encounter no boat
on the Ohio was ever attacked by Indians.
