Paine's only surviving son, Robert Troup Paine, committed suicide in 1851 while at Harvard. Paine and his wife compiled Memoir of Robert Troup Paine, a volume of more than ninety-one of the compositions, theme papers, and letters that his son had written during his schooling, and presented the printed volume, bound in embossed leather, to Harvard - Dictionary of Early American Philosophers. Ed. John R. Shook. This entry in the Schultz Archive is roughly the final third of the memoir pages 335 – 524, plus two brief notes: At a Special Meeting of the Presidential and Fellows of Harvard College in Boston, January 21, 1854; At the Annual Meeting of the Board of Overseers of Harvard College, in the Senate Chamber, Boston, January 26, 1854.
