regard to sect or party. He was zealous 

 for the promulgation of useful knowledge, 

 aiid was a principal agent in establisiiing 

 and supporting a subscription library in his 

 native village, which contains many valu- 

 able works, great care having been taken 

 to admit such only as are of real utility. 

 His loss will be long and deservedly la- 

 mented by his surviving relatives and an 

 extensive circle of acquaintance, both in 

 the higher and humble walks of life, par- 

 ticularly among his workpeople and the 

 poor and unfortunate of the surrounding- 

 neighbourhood ; he was always a ready 

 advocate for those who have generally too 

 few to plead their cause. This short tri- 

 bute to departed worth, is given by an 

 humble individual whom he took under his 

 protection at an unfortunate period of his 

 life, when the world seemed to say, " I 

 have no need of thee ;'' whom he adopted 

 as a bosom friend and the constant com- 

 panion of liis joys and sorrows, and all his 

 literary pursuits, and whose loss language 

 cannot paint.
