Paine's only surviving son, Robert Troup Paine, committed suicide in 1851 while at Harvard.

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.
