who was at one time recognized as an orator of no mean ability, and more
recently was called "the Silver Tongued Orator of Washington Heights",
died yesterday morning in his homestead on King's Bridge Road. Those who
were children in New York twenty-five or Thirty years ago remember him
especially well as a Fourth of July orator, who would arouse their
patriotism to the highest pitch. When some civic or military event in New
York required an orator it was for many years quite the custom to call
upon Hosea Perkins for the address. He was
always a Democrat, but Mr. Perkins did not
take politics very seriously and although upon several occasions offices
of considerable importance were offered to him he declined them. He was a
member of the Tammany Society and of the Democratic Fordham, Washington
Heights, and Century Clubs. Of the latter organization he was President
for many years. Although a busy man, Mr. Perkins
was a great lover of books, and found time for private study. After his
retirement from business he took up the study of several languages and
also of the sciences. In 1871 Dartmouth similarly honored him. He was
considered an authority on the poetry of Robert Burns, and he delivered a
number of lectures on the Scotch bard. Mr. Perkins
was born in Dover, N. H., Aug. 8th, 1819. He was the son of
Robert P. Perkins and
Relief Perkins, his family being one of the oldest and most
respected in the State. What early education he got was in public schools
of his native town, which he left at fourteen years of age. For three
years he worked on his father's farm and as a clerk in a store, and then
left for New York. He arrived here when he was seventeen years old, and
was fond of telling in his later years that upon his arrival he knew only
one person in the city - a poor old negro. He secured a position as clerk
in the carpet house of Shaw & Carter. A few years later he went into
business for himself on the Bowery with his brother,
James P. Perkins. After thirty years in business he retired, having
amassed a competency. Although declining political honors,
Mr. Perkins served for ten years as a School
Trustee and for twenty years represented the Twelfth Ward in the Board of
Education. During the war Mr. Perkins was a
member of the New England Relief Association and as such upon the return
of the Second New Hampshire after the war delivered the address of welcome
at the Battery. The affair was one which drew a crowd of 10,000 persons to
that park. One of his other memorable speeches was made at the Hampshire
Agricultural Society, at which the most prominent men of that time
attended and made speeches. Mr. Perkins
married on Nov. 9th, 1848, Harriet L. Hanmer, who died in 1888.
They had eight children, five of whom survive. They are Mrs. H. M. Noe,
Mrs. Thomas H. Disbrow, Mrs. George H. Payson, wife of the Rev. Dr. Payson
of Newark, N.J., Mrs. William J. McCreery, and
Robert R. Perkins. Mr. Perkins enjoyed
pretty good health until 1900 when his daughter, Mrs. Ethan Allen, died.
He seemed to grieve over that bereavement a great deal, and also about
that time began to show physical ailments. For several months he had been
very ill at his home. 1902: Oct. 24th - The New York Times - New York, NY. Athens, PA: Oct. 23rd -

seventy-two years ago, was the son of Fennis
(Dennis ?) Perkins
and came to New York in early youth. With his father he engaged first in
the dry goods business and later dealt in cotton. He was one of the
earliest members of the New York Cotton Exchange and a member of the
National Academy of Design from its inception. Mr.
Perkins, in 1875, married Eliza Martin, daughter of Walter M.
