Clergy Deceased.

several years treasurer to the county. He was an alderman of the old corporation of Huntingdon, and was elected one of the first members of the town council when that body superseded the former one, and on several occasions filled the office of mayor of the borough, with his accustomed zeal and diligence in whatever he undertook to do. Possessing a cheerful and contented disposition, it was his great delight to see every one happy around him, and he was at all times ready to aid in any benevolent object which had for its aim the benefit of his fellow-men. To the several charitable institutions of the town he was a large contributor, and his private benevolence was on an extensive scale, whilst to most of the religious societies he was at all times ready to lend a helping hand, and acted as treasurer to several of them. Although he had attained the age of threescore years and ten, it was not until within these few months that any outward appearance of decay of nature exhibited itself; and his usually robust health and active habits gave a hope that his career of usefulness might for many years be prolonged. His body was interred in the family vault in St. Mary's churchyard.
