an English Baptist minister, was born at Culworth, Northamptonshire, December 22, 1798. He was received into the Church at the age of twenty, and manifested a desire to preach, in 1826 went to supply the pulpit at Grundesburgh, and after preaching one year was chosen pastor of the society, in which relation he continued for nearly fifty years. He took an active part in the organization of the Suffolk County Home Mission in 1831, and was its secretary for more than forty years. He originated, in 1833, the Gospel Herald, a low-priced Baptist magazine, and edited it for twenty-five years. He was unable to preach during the last three years of his life, and died June 17, 1881.
