morning prayers, which his gon did for him 
at church; was seized at noon with a pain in 
his side, buds bled, grew rapidly worse, and at 
midnight peacefully resizned his spirit to his 
Maker, without pain, strogzle, or groan, 
dying as he had lived. The fgllowing Sunday, 
the worthy rector preached fram tne Reve- 
Jations, “‘ I heard a voice from Heaven,” &c. 
to a congregatiun in tears; and, when he had 
finished, sat dawn in the pulpit and wept 
himself, The faneral, it is. compted, was 
attended by about 1300 persons, whose .be- 
thaviocr expressed their feelings: the parish 
‘may be sixteen miles.in‘circumference, and in 
‘it 1700 souls. The procession-was led by 
the rector and the two medical gentlemen 
bare- headed, from the house to.the church, 
“through a crowd of spectators, with many of. 
‘the French and Dutch prisoners in town, who 
‘uncovered as it passed, Opposite the school, 
‘the puoils, haviog furmedthemse ves into two 
_ Sines,. of their own accord, permitted the pro- 
‘cession to pass between them, and then fol- 
Mowed in the rear of the mourn ers, and, by- 
“their attentive, affectionate, and orderly, con- 
‘duct, gained the esteem of the whole au- 
‘ditory. The service wes read by the rector, 
sand thus terminated the earthly carser of a 
faithful parish priest. These particulars ex- 
‘emplify almost the primit ive ages pf Chris- 
Rianity, from the mutual love and esteem sub- 
sisting between ministers and people. It is 
“mentioned to shew, where such harmony 
“exists, what an excellent tendency it has to 
Promote the happiness of a-parish. The se- 
"\paration was as affectionate as the Apostle 
Paul experienced, when the church wept at 
his depar-ure, on his YIREs They would see 
his face no more.

from Henry VIIf. The prelate*inredded it 
“for his owa burial place, «and with a profusion 
of ‘expéncE began a most: sumptuous monue

tion, During the civil wars it was despoiied 
of all its splendour; james Pl. having con 
Vertéd this builing into a Podish chapel, the 
religiots zeal of the populace was exercised 
‘in the destraétion of its windows and internal
