«8 A HISTORY OF LOXGKIDGE. [Chap. 2. 



A marble slab within the chancel is erected to his memory : 



Sacred to the memory 

 of the Eev. GEORGE PARKIN, 

 who departed this life 

 the 27th March, a.d., 1S31, aged 07 years. 

 Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord, 

 Even so saith the Spirit ; for they rest from 

 Their labour, and their works do follow them. 

 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again 

 Even so them also which sleep in Jesus 

 Will God bring with Hira. 

 REV. FREDERICK MAUDE, M.A. — 1831-43. 



The Eev. Frederick Maude, M.A., followed Mr. Parkin, and held 

 the living for nearly 12 years. Mr. Maude was a delicate man, and 

 so did not mix as much as he could have liked with the people. He 

 was considered a very good preacher, and although he was a very 

 sedate man and wanted knowing, he was popular among his 

 parishioners. He was very intimate with the Birley family, and the 

 Eev. Webber Birley often used to preach for him, when Mr. Maude 

 was away from home. Just before Mr. Maude died he engaged the 

 Eev. Ed. White as his curate for twelvemonths, but the death of Mr. 

 Maude at Kensington, on July 2nd, 1843, terminated Mr. White's 

 engagement. 



The Communion plate now in use at the Church was presented by 

 Mr. Maude. 



A marble slab under the south gallery, in what is profanely called 

 " Bull's Head Eow,'" is erected to his memory, and bears the follow- 

 ing inscription : —
