Nevertheless, he still exerted the feeble re- mains of dying nature, in proclaiming salvation through Jesus Christ, to a lost and ruined world. | , He bore his last illness with great patience, and re-- signation. He saw death approaching with rapid strides ; but through the promises of the gospel, and the consolations of the spirit; he was enabled tomeet the king of terrors without dismay. And eyen when death. had nearly compleated his conquest over all in him that was mortal, his reason still maintained its. empire, and the last words which he was heard. to. articulate was, “Glory ! Glory!” And then like an ex- piring lamp, or the seting sun without a cloud,. he: fella sleep.

THOMAS L. BUDD. a native of New Mills,, Burlington County, state of New-Jersey. He was- born February 19, 1783, and about the year 1800 was. converted to God, and attached himself to the Meth-. odist Church. He was received as a travelling preach-. er at the Philadelphia Conference in 1803, and ap- pointed to the Redstone Circuit. He travelled Berke- ley in 1804, Clarksburg in 1805, Greenbrier in 1806; he was appointed to Fells-Point. and Fells-Point Cir- cuit in 1807, Montgomery in 1808, Burlington in 1809,. and stationed in Philadelphia in 1810, where he ended: his days in peace, July 10, in the 28th year of his age, _ and the seventh of his ministry. - - He died ofa pulmonary affection, a complaint to-- which he was constitutionally predisposed ; ‘it was sudden in its attack, and progressed rapidly to a fatal termination. Thomas L. Budd was a young man of good natural.and improved abilities ; he was both ac- 16 ceptable and useful as a preacher ‘and teemed in all the stations he filled ; he good moral character and pious in. his life and conduct, he was open and free in his manners, a stranger to dissimulation, capable of warm attachments C d- ship, and exceedingly candid and fr character. In the first of his illness, his mind etal much depressed occasioned by the doubts he | tained of his acceptance with God; but it pinkie’ . the Lord that that state of mind should not long con-° tinue, for the cloud suddenly burst and his soul was filled with joy and peace in believing, and although he | was frequently harassed with temptations afterwards ; | yet at intervals he rejoiced in the God of his salvation and proclaimed he felt Jesus to be precious, and ap-- pealed to those that were present if they did not oP experience the same consolation in him. * He was asked some few hours before Hedisddlatioks: whether he knew his end was approaching, and also, - whether he felt ready to meet it? he answered, he had no pre-sentiment that death was very near; but that if it was the will of God, he had rathet go at * that’ time, unless he had the fullest assurance, that at # fu- ture period he shouid feel his mind in the same byt - py frame itthen was. The a after his death, h ay mains were taken to New-Mills, accompanied number of his friends, and intcined apighiim ta ik in his general | esa mothe the place of his birth. A sermon was preached the . occasion by one of his colleagues, to a and. dee ly affected congregation, on these words of the oele= brated apostle St. Paul, ‘ I have fought a good fight, ¥ I have finished my course,I have kept the faitl hence- forth there is laid up for me a crown of : ess, which the Lord, the righteous joes Bie me at ys day.” 2 hake tns lv. 7; 8. f 4, 3. WILLIAM KEITH was eink i in ae of Easton, Massachusetts, September 15, 1776. By the account which he has left: of himself, he | ad serious exercises of mind from the time he was eight years, old; but by the influence of bad Sas ee he was. 17 kept under bondage to sin, until.some.time in the month of May 1794. in his eighteenth year, when ina love-feast he found the peace of God to his soul. He soon after joined the Methodist-Church, and was faith- ful in the discharge of his duty as a private member. It was not long, however, before he felt his mind ex- ercised about preaching the gospel of the Son of God. He felt that reluctance tothe work, which is common to those who are sensible of its in)portance, and their own inadequacy to the task. After many-severe exer- _ cises and sore conflicts, he inthe year 1798 trembling- ly entered the work of the ministry ; and it was soon seen that he was in the order of God, by-the visible fruits of his labour in the Lord. This year he was stationed in the Albany circuit. ‘Having te ride,” says he, “ three hundred miles in four weeks. and “ preach forty-three times, and sometimes travel on “foot through storms and snows, I was so worn out, “ that in the month of April 1799. I returned home un- “ able to ride any more.””? According te his own ac- count, after desisting from travelling. though he main- tained the form; and supported an unspotted charac- ter as to his outward deportment, he insensibly lost the inward life and power of religion in a considerable degree. Some of the preachers, seeing his dangery- reproving him in too harsh a manner, instead.of: re- claiming hin, it tended to prejudice his mind against them, and to sink him into dejection, so. that. in the antumn of 1801, he withdrew from the connection.* While in this state he visited various denominations, by some of which he was solicitedto join himself as a minister, but to this he could not:feel: free to consent. After about one year and an half, he saw it his duty te return to the people from whom.he had withdrawn. On this occasion he says, “ A's soon as I consented to ‘* bear the cross, and join the Methodists again, L-felt._ “a return of the favour of God, and could truly:says. “© My Jesus is mine and.I am his:” He laboured asa “local preacher about two years when he again entered... * See his experience, written by nimself, page 20.and Pp ; B.2 $85. ig the itinerant connection, in which he continued until. hisdeath. In the year 1806 and 1807 he was stationed in Newburgh circuit, and in 1808 in Montgomery, at > which places, and indeed wherever he has been sta- tioned, he was received by the people as a messenger of God ; for his ministerial labours were blessed to many. In 1809 he was stationed'in New-York, where he ended his days upon earth, September 7, 1810,aged 33 years, 11 months, and 23 days. He wasted away _by slow and almost imperceptible degrees, with the ‘consumption ; but patience was made perfect in his sufferings. The writer of this memoir lived under -the same roof with him for about two months of his - dast illness, and therefore had an opportunity of ob- serving himattentively. For sometime previous to ‘his death, he was unable to articulate loud, so that he could converse but little. - Though he frequently ex- pressed his wanf of sensible consolation, anda desire for greater manifestations of God’s joyful countenance; _ yet no murmuring word was heard to drop from his: lips, nor any consciousness of condemnation. A plea- sant smiling countenance visibly indicated the Inward serenity and tranquility of his mind. ; mJ A‘tew days before his happy spirit departed, he ‘said, “ The fear of death and hell is wholly taken away, and I have a hope of immortality.” He also. said, that Ais views of the filan of salvation were the same as they had been since he embraced the religion of — Jesus Christ ; and that we might tell his friends that he died in the Lord. Pei ern | Mee One distinguished trait in the character of William Keith was humility. Perhaps no man ever possessed more real excellence, and at the same time had a less. opinion of himself. Perhaps this was one cause of that. “dejection of mind which was sometimes visible, and: which, no doubt, prevented him from enjoying him-: self as wellas he otherwise mjght have done. Ano- ther peculiarexcellence with which the great Head of ‘the Church blessed him, was clearness Diccncoeida, readiness of utterance, and comprehensiveness in ar-- gument, It has often been remarked that he possess-. - 5 ed dictiipy art of expressing much useful matter in _a few well chosen words. Sound in doctrine, deep in experience, and uniform in_ practice, he was able to look a congregation in the face, while he denounced the terrors of the law to sinners, and administered the “promises of the gospel to mourners and to believers. “The unction of the Holy Spirit which anointed his word, more than compensated for his want of a classi- ‘cal education, which, though good in its place, can “never supply the absence of an heart-felt experience of divine truth. The happy, and sometimes astonish- ‘ing effects of his ministry, demonstrated that he was ~sent by Jesus Christ, to declare unto mankind the aw- | - ful truths of heaven, and to beseech sinners to be re- conciled to God. He had failings no doubt, but as the ~ writer ofthis was unacquainted with them, he cannot tell what they were. But he isno more inthis world. ‘He is gone to reap the reward of those who continue ‘faithful to death. May we emulate his virtues, and se prepare to join him i in praising God and the Lamb for ever. He left a widow and three children; andthe ecpie of New-York have shewn their love "which they had for the dead, while living, by oe benevolence to the > widow and-fatherless. _ 4 WILLIAM HUNT was born at East-Sidbury, Middlesex County, Massachusetts June 9, 1787. “At an early period he manifested a mild and amiable temper of mind, united with a strong inclination to reading and close thinking. But from the unhappy circumstance of reading books, and hearing conversa- | tion tending to invalidate the Christian religion, he not / only doubted the truth of, but entertained strong pre- , judices against the scriptures. When about fifteen years old he first attended the preaching of the Methodists, where he first received those-religious impressiens which brought him to the knowledge of himself, and- Jesus Christ his Saviour. ‘Convinced of the depth, extent, and consequence of sin, with a penitential heart he approached to the Re- ir - 20 deemer, and apmhveg the witness of eet in his blood. From the a of his conversion, he manifested an unusual attachment to the Holy Scriptures ; d not- withstanding his intense application to Academical studies, he.was accustomed to | ope collate, and com- mit to memory certain portions the sacred wriGnes, daily. He was licensed to preach i in 1805 ; and admitted on trial as a travelling preacher in 1806; and was/ap- pointed to Orington circuit. In 1807 he was ‘stationed a Conway circuit; in 1808 he was appointed © to ridgwater, New-Hampshire, in which station he ob- tained the sanctifying grace of Ged,and madethe happy instrument of this salvation to others; and here the dis- order of which he died, formed its first permanent seat in his feeble constitution, His next appointment was Marblehead, where he continued but a few months be- fore his consumptive complaints became so deeply : fix- ed, as to afford sufficient conviction that his dissolution was nigh. Unable longer to continue his ministerial labours, he left his station.and retired to his Parents. at Penobscet, with whom hedied, As a christian, in the profession both of justifying and sanctifying grace, he was a pattern of devotion. As a scholar, few have excelled him in the branches of literatare he pursued. As a minister, he was sound in doctrine, and well read in the Holy Scriptures. He - possessed cerrect views of gospel order an | discipline, and was in his life acomment upon them. __ He possessed in a large measure, the grand princi- \ pal of ministerial oratory, che hower of the Holy Ghost.. His last illness was a continued scene of severe af- fliction, great patience and much divine consolation. He retained his senses tothe last. With the deepest humility, modesty, and. ,triumph, he said, “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith; henceforth there is. ait ) Up. for me a. : erown of life.” He sat in his chair till a few moments before the a di- ed; he then desired.to.be laid on the bed ; then.he de- 2k sired to be put en his knees, in which position he expi- red on the 17th day of June 1810, with all that tran- ility and holy triumph which the consideration of a life devoted to God, a sense of the divine presence, and a prospect ofan eternal mrtighk of glory are cal- culated to Mapare: It isa circumstance worthy of observation, that sO many of our brethren in the ministry have fallen into the arms of death in the morning of life, and in the midst of usefulness. The most promising. flowers have been suddenly taken from earth; but we trust to be transplanted in a richer soil, and more favourable clime. While we behold with wonder, let us adore with trembling the government of Jehoyah, whose foot-- steps are in the great deep, and his ways past pare out. eae N.B. It is not altogether. of the testimony Re oth- ers, that I have given to our dear brother Hunt the: above character ; I have been intimately acquainted: with him, and can say with propriety, I have known but: few, in whom so many christian and ministerial excel~ lencies were united. ’ JeS. ! Ss GIDEON A. KNOWLTON, a native of Con- _ nectieut, born in East Hadden, who departed this life in Whites-Town, (N.Y.) the 15th of August 1810; aged 51 years G. A. Knowlton became an itinerent preacher in 1800, and was stationed on Cayuga circuit ; in 1801 on Tioga; 1802 and 1803 Ulster; 1804 Albany ; 1805 Saratoga; 1806 and 1807 Montgomery; ‘een and 1809 Westefn; and 1810 Mexico. Immediately ‘after his return from the ‘Genesee Conference which was held in Lyons July 1910, he was seized with a violent fever, that contiuued to: in- crease till it terminajed in death. Through the course of his illness he manifested an entire resignation to God, and frequently expressed an enjoyment of his forgiving love. Whilst enduring the last agonies of dissolving nature he frequently exclaimed, “How sweet is pain when Christ is near.” A few days bc- 2 fore his death We calfed:his wife and'two-da . his bed, and after having! clasped: each! ay h and, bid them all farewell) Yow have ofte: : 1 aad hey “Jooked and wished ‘for my return home, L am.n ow ‘© going to my) eternal-_home ;_ be faithful, and w. “‘ meet again to part no more forever.” in-consequence of the violence of his fevei, in’ ; days be- fore his exit, he was fr equently_ “delicous however, the day before he died, he said to his physician Tle most confident: manner, “J know that my Rede liveth” Having thus»given — ory. evidence of ‘his confidence in God, he closed his eyes déath ; - and no doubt made his flight to the abodes of peace. Our late brother Knowlton, we believe, was a deeply experienced christian ; ‘a plain, practical, and useful. preacher. And such was his faithfulness in attenc ing, his appointments, that it became.proverbial i in stormy weather, “It°is Knowlton’s appointment,. he will be there; we must attend.” ‘He is taken from a worl ig toil and pain to reap his great reward.in heaven ; for. blessed are the dead which die-in the Lord from hence - forth;. yea, saith the Spirit, that’ they. m Bay ¢ from their labours ; 3 and their works do follc Ww t em. spe 2 reftug A ~ Tiras ‘# wt BAe peed.
