 he arrived at Woodhall, at which place I first became acquainted with him ; 

 and, by practising under his direction for some time, I found in him the real 

 man of business, and one who acted the part of a father and friend to all the 

 young men that, like myself, had the good fortune to receive a part of their 

 instruction from hhn. I believe him to have been a first-rate horticulturist of 

 his day ; and, up to the last day of his practice, his anxiety was as great as ever ; 

 although his faculties had become somewhat impaired, and, consequently, 

 business was not carried on with the same degree of success as formerly. He 

 had retired to the village above mentioned about four years before his death ; 

 which was occasioned by a fall in his bed-room, that brought on inflammation, 

 and that, in eight days, put a period to his sufferings. He has left an only 

 dauaihter to lament his loss, — C. J. Jan. 6. 1838.
