a private fiation have had-a jufter claim to 
‘commemoration than the fubje& of this are 
ticle. Placed, at an early age, ina fituation 
in which he thought. it his duty to labour 
with his hands, Mr. Godman attually did 
labour, while health and frength lafted, with 
as much affiduity as if his fubGftence had de- 
pended on his induftry; at the fame time his 
-perfonal expences and indulgencies were ex- 
tremely fmall, In thefe exertions, and-thefe 
privations, and in the exercife of a lucrative 
bufinefs, it might be fuppofed that the,accu- 
mulation of wealth was his objeét, and that 
he fucceeded in attaining it; the reverfe of 
this was the fa&. The objeé& of his more 
generous aim was, that by fo labouring he 
might fupport the weak. Never forgotten 
or unheeded by him were the words of the 
Lord Jetus, when he faid, ¢¢ it is more blefted 
to give than te receive.” His benetactions 
were moft extenfive. He willingly futtered 
no cbjeé of compaifion to leave his gate un- 
relieved. By his bounty and his credit he 
aflifted a very numerous defcription of perfons 
who were far above a flate of mendicity. He 
exercifed an hofpitality, plain, indeed, and 
unoftentatious, but of the moft liberal kind. 
His indulgence and generofity to his younger 
relatives, ‘can never be effaced from their re- 
membranse. To fay that in all his dealings 
he preferved the ftri€teft integrity, is faying 
very little: he never fought his own advane 
tage, but always that of his neighbour, and 
often that of perfons whofe finifter intentions 
the finglenefs of his own heart did not permit 
him to fufpe&. As his early education was 
by no means negleéted, fo throughout life he 
took great pleafure in cultivating his mindy 
and acquiring every kind of knowledge that 
wes within his reach. His curiofity was always 
aétive The principal feéts in hiftory, remark- 
able productions of nature or art, and extraordi- 
nary narratives of travellers and adventurers, 
were to him never-failing fources of amufe- 
ment, and objects of intereft. His religious 
and political piinciples were, ip all points, 
fuitable to the reft of his chara&ter. He ab- 
horred intolerance, oppreffion, and injuftice, 
of every kind, He was the genuine cifciple 
of afchool which is now nearly extinG, and 
of which, except in the record of hiftory, the- 
remembrance wiil foon be lof. He was an 
Oid Whig, a Diffenter, and.a Unitarian 5 and 
perhaps it is net faying too much to afmrmy 
that. the influence of his character contri- 
buted, in his neighbourhood, to leffen the 
unpopularity generally attached to his opini- 
ons. His fenfes and faculties continued al- 
moft unimpaired to nearly the end of life. 
From his undeviating temperance, from his 
confcioufnefs of poffeiiing and merizing the 
love of all good men,-and from never having 
had his fpirits worn by the anxieties incident 
to felfifh purfuits, he maintained amid much 
bodily infirmity, and almoft to his lateft 
heur, a cheerfulnefs, and even a boyith fport- 
ivenefs of mind and temper of which there
