COLLIPULLE (call-ye-pull'-ye), Araneanian cacique, b. early in the 16th century; d. in 1576. When still very young he was appointed generalissimo of the Indian army of Chili, in 1504, after the death of its leader, the cacique Antigueun. In August of the same year he fought as a chief at the battle of Mariguena, and assisted in the defeat of the Spanish army commanded by a son of Vil- lagran. From 1565 till 1508 he had many encoun- ters with the Spaniards, in 15G9 besieged unsuc- cessfully the city of Valdivia, and in 1570 planned and fought three important battles at Cafiete, Vil- larrica, and the banks of the Biobio, where he was killed. Collipulle was seven feet in height, and famous for his extraordinary strength.
COLLOT, Victor, French explorer, b. in Cha-
lons-sur-Marne about 1751 ; d. in Paris in July,
1805. He was an officer in the army, rose to be a
general of brigade, and was at one time governor
of Guadeloupe. He published a map of Detroit in
1790, also " Voyage dans le nord d'Amerique en

COLLYER, Robert, clergyman, b. in Keighly, Yorkshire. England, 8 Dec, 1823. He educated himself, having left school at the age of eight years to earn his living in a factory. The only instruction he received after that was in a night-school that he attended two winters. When fourteen
years old he was apprenticed to a blacksmith. In 1849 he became a local Methodist preacher, and the year following came to the United States, and, while still working as a hammer-maker in Shoemakertown, Pa., preached on Sundays. His views gradually changed in the direction of Unitarian-
ism, and he was arraigned before the conference for heresy, and his license to preach revoked. The clumge in his views of the atonement was partly brought about by conversations with Lucretia Mott. The circumstance that the Methodist
clergy at that time wei-e restrained from freely denouncing slavery had much influence in converting him to Unitarianism. While still working at his craft, he became known as an eloquent public speaker. In 1859 he united with the Unitarian church, and, going to Chicago, 111., became a missionary of the Unitarian church in that city, and in 1800 organized the Unity church, which began with only seven members, but rapidly increased in numbers under his spirited and earnest preaching. In 1801 he was a camp-inspector for the Sanitary commission. His reputation as a preacher and lecturer soon extended over the country. In September, 1879, he became pastor of the Church of the
Messiah in New York city. He has re-visited England five times since 1865, and travelled in other parts of Europe. He is the author of " Nature and Life" (Boston, 1860); "A Man in Earnest: Life of A. H. Conant" (1808); "The Life that Now Is" (1871); "The Simple Truth, a Home Book " (1877); "A History of the Town and Parish of Ilkley" (Otley, England, 1886), written in collaboration with Horsef all Turner; "Lectures to Young Men and Women " (1886).
COLMAN, Benjamin, clergyman, b. in Boston, Mass., 19 Oct., 1078 ; d. there, 29 Aug., 1747. He was graduated at Harvard in 1692, began preaching soon afterward, embarked for England in July, 1695, was captured by a French privateer, and reached England after a brief imprisonment. He there became acquainted with eminent nonconformist divines, and preached in Bath and other places. In 1699 he returned to take charge of the Brattle street church, receiving ordination in London, because the society, just organized in opposition to the Cambridge platform, differed with the other churches in New England in regard to the
forms of service, desiring to abolish the public relation of experiences, and to introduce reading of the Scriptures and recital of the Lord's prayer. He remained with the society, with which the other Boston churches long refused to hold communion, till his death, ranking among the first of New England clergymen, and exerting a powerful influence in civil affairs that sometimes drew censure upon him. He procured benefactions for Harvard and Yale colleges, and interested himself in the mission among the Housatonic Indians and other benevolent enterprises. In 1724 he was offered, but refused, the presidency of Harvard. Many of his sermons, some poems, and a tract in favor of in-
oculation for small-pox, were published. His col-
lected sermons were printed in three volumes (Bos-
ton, 1707-'22). See " Life and Character of Col-
man," by his son-in-law, the Hev. Ebenezer Turell
(Boston, 1749), and Hopkins's "History of the
Houssatonnoc Indians."
