PREFACE.



This sketch of the long and laborious life of my esteemed friend is the only return which it is in my power to make for the many favours he conferred upon me. From what I knew of his character, I feel sure that the tribute would not have been unacceptable to him. Some record, also, appeared due to the public, for his life, unobtrusive as it was, presented many a useful lesson of generosity, cheerfulness, and moderation. His wide sympathies extended to all classes of society; he took an interest in their joys and sorrows, their toils and relaxations. Such kindly feelings gained for him the affections of rich and poor, and made him a successful advocate of those Christian principles which he lived and laboured to inculcate.

A. G. L’ESTRANGE.
