RECENT DEATH.
REV. J. WHEELER.
Died, on Friday, the 27th of March, aged 62, the Rev. J. Wheeler, pastor
of the Baptist church, Bugbrook, Northamptonshire. His funeral took
place on Wednesday, the 1st of April. The Rev. T. Wake, of Thislingbury,
read a suitable portion of the Scriptures, and prayed; the Rev. W. Gray,
of Northampton, delivered the address, and on the following Sabbath, to
a crowded congregation, preached the funeral sermon, from Jude 21:
"Looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life." A
text expressly chosen by the deceased.
Mr. Wheeler had been settled with his people for nearly 32 years; and it
is pleasing to notice, that some of the last years of his ministry were
the most successful. Twelve months he was laid aside from his public
labours; and in the sick room, and on the bed of pain, illustrated and
magnified those principles which, for successive years, he had preached
to others.
