near, Harrowgale,? in the Parish of Ripley, and was
brought up in the Church of England. My mother
kept a strict eye upon me wishing to preserve me from the

In my 16th year I was catchsed? examined by the Minister of our
Church in the doctrines of Christianity as a preparation for the holy Communion, preveirs?

I now resolved not to rest satisfied till I had found him,

A few hours before my Fathers departure, he I ms? for
all his Children 10 in number, to give each his farewell
