His doubts having been removed, he resumed preaching at Newport, R. I., in 1755. In 1777 he was invited to the presidency of Yale College and accepted, entering upon the duties June 23, 1778, and filled that office until his death.

His published addresses and sermons, and his manuscript diary and other works are preserved at Yale in 45 bound volumes. He died in New Haven, Conn., May 12,
