On the East Rock, in New Haven, ______ Turner, usually called"The Hermit."
This singular being had for a number of years lived in seclusion on the top of this rock, the ascent to which is both difficult and tedious. His residence was a cabin, built of earth and stone, with an aperture which served both as an entrance and a chimney. At the extremity of his cabin was his bed, composed of husks and boughs, where, on Sunday, the 2d inst., he was found dead. An inquest was held on the body, whose verdict was, that he died by the visitation of God. His person was covered with rags, and in that part5 of them which served as his trowsers there was found, strongly sewed in triple folds, upwards of forty dollars in silver -- which seems to show that, though he had renounced the world, the love of gain was still inherent. The only companions of his retirement were two or three sheep, which he fed with care, and they enjoyed all his tenderness. He was extremely taciturn his manner -- communicated little to inquirers, and was both ignorant and repulsive. In winter he appeared frequently at the doors of the citizens, with a basket -- asked for nothing, spoke little -- but whatever was given him, he took away quietly. The only food found in his tenement was two or three birds, picked for cooking, and a few potatoes. We believe he was a native of some of the neighboring towns, but of his early life, or the motives which led him to seek such an uncomfortable asylum from the vanities of life, we have no knowledge. --Conn.
