SUDDEN DEMISE OF THE VENERABLE PRELATE AT COCKEYSVILLE, MD.—A SKETCH OF HIS LIFE. Right Rev. William Pinkney, D. D., LL. D., bishop of the Maryland diocese of the Protestant Episcopal church, died suddenly trom congestion of the heart, about 7 o'clock yesterday morning, at the rectory of Sherwood Episcopal church, Cock- eysville, Baltimore county, Md. Tucsday after- noon, In company with Rey. Dr. Myer Lewin, dean of the convocation of Washington, he went from his home nest Bladensburg to Cockeysville, to spend yesterday at the country home of Rev. A. T. Pindell, and to consecrate Sherwood church to- day. Upon arriving at Cockeysville he appeared to be in Vigorous heaith,though somewhat fatigued by his Journey. He ate bis supper with a relish, and in the evening attended services and preached an eloqunt sermon in Sherwood church, At 10:3) O'clock the bisiop retired, apparenuly in good health. About 6 o'clock in the morning, Dr. Lewin, ‘who occupied the room adjolning that af the bishop, was alarmed by hearing him sigh heavily, as if in pain, Hastening to the room he found iim in g much enfeebled condition. ‘The bishop was then selzed with an attack of nausea. Dr. Pindell was callea, and the two clergymen sought to relieve the distress of the bishop. Dr. Pindell having gone to look for some ginger and to secure the attendance of a physictan, Dr. Lewin stepped to his room for _a minute, and upon returning saw the bishop, who had attempted to rise in bed, fall tothe floor. Dr. Lewin ran to him and ratsed nis head just as he expired. The news of his ceath Was Soon dispatched by telegraph to Baltimore, Bladensburg, and to Rev. Dr. EUilott, of this city: ‘The remains were as soon as possible placed in an ice casket, and about noon Rev, A.M. Randolph, D.D., Rev. A. P. Stryker, both of whom are mem: bers’of the church staidinz cominitice, Judge Pinkney, a cousin of the bishop, and Mr. G. Som- erville Norris arrived, and limedtately steps were taken to notify the clergy throughout the state and make arrangements for the tuneral. In the afvernoun other ministers came, A SKETCH OF HIS LIFE. Bishop Pinkney was born in Annapolis, Md., in 1810. He was connected with two of the most dis- tinguished families in Maryland, his father being the youngest brother of the renowned William Pinkney, one of the leading men of Maryland in his time, and his mother being a sister of Governor Grason. ‘When a iad of about 17 years of age young Willtam Pinkney entered old St. John’s college, at Annapolis, His first Intention after leaving col- lege was to enter the bar, but while engaged in his, legal studies his attention turned to the ministry, and he fnally determined to abandon the law and take up the ministry. He went to Princeton col- lege for some time, and, graduating at the New York Theological seminary, he was ordained a deacon of the Episcopal church by the late Bishop Stone, and shortly afterwards, In 1836, was raised to the priesthood and given the rectorship of St. Andrew's parish, in Somerset county, Md. In 1838 he was elected 'rector of St. Matthew’s parish, Prince @ ‘orge’s county, About 1855 he married Miss Elizabeth Lowndes, daughter of Benjamin 0. Lowndes, who lived near Bladensburg. Near the Ume of bis marriage he was elected to the rector ship of Ascension church, in this city, and through his exertions thé parish grew from a very small charge to one of the most influential in the diocese. He remained rector of the parish until his death, Rev, Dr. Elliott benz his assist- ant In 1870 he was elected assistant bishop of the diocese of Maryland, and upon the death of Bishop Whittingham. in October, 1°79, succeded hin in ofiice. His administration of tho oftice of bishop was marked with great energy. Ie greatly developed the home missions, and during ils ad- ministration over thirty new churches and chapels e bean erected In the diocese, and the mission offerings of the churches have been trebeled. ‘The bishop's wife died in July, 1680, ana was buried 1n the Addison chapel cemetery, about three miles frow Bladensburg. ‘They had ‘no children. Iv appears thar the bishep must have had somo premonition of his approaching end, or at least desired to have all his aff irs arranged, In cage he should suddenly be stricken down, as on ‘Tuesday he handed his memoranduin book to Dr Lewin, saying: “Here 1s the record book of my oficial acts up to to-day, with all the papers belonging to them.” Tn view of his sudden demise the sermon Preached by the bishop at Sherwcod church the evening before his death 1s considered somewhat remarkable. He dwelt with much pathos upon the separation of? beloved friends by death, and urged Unat it was beneticial to cherish hallowed memories of the dead. THE “DEAR OLD BISHOP.” An instance of tue affection people felt for Bisuop Pinkney occurred at the Payne obsequtes. During the little shower that fell in the midst of the exercises a young lady observed that the bishop was unproiected from the rain. She mado an attempt to squeeze through the erowd towards the guests’ stand, where the bishop sat, but foand that impossivie. ‘Then extending her um- brelia in that direction she sald aloud and in the most appealing voice to everybody, “Oh, do please, somebody take my umbrella and hold it over the dear old bishop.” She gave no thought to the fowers and feathers on her hat, which might be Tulued by the rain, but was willing to sacrifice all and get wet in the bargain for the “dear old bishop.” ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE FUNERAL. ‘The remains of Bishop Pinkney will be kept at the rectory at Cockeysville until to-morrow morn- Ing, In charge of a Baltimore undertaker.
