- catalog description "Benjamin Pratt (also spelled Prat) (1710/1-1763) was born on March 13, 1710/1 in Cohasset, Massachusetts. At the age of eighteen, Pratt's leg was amputated following a fall from a tree. Pratt entered Harvard College in 1733, but withdrew at the end of his junior year due to pain related to his earlier injury. Pratt, with the support of the College Tutors, successfully petitioned the Harvard Corporation in 1737 to grant him an AB degree in spite of his absence. Pratt returned to Harvard in 1738 as a graduate student and received an AM in 1740. Pratt served as Harvard Librarian in 1742 and 1743 and later practiced law before becoming Chief Justice of the Province of New York.".
