Starborough, in the Covy'y of York. Feb 21. ® © @ Urenay Jaft was ic'enight died here of the ® '@ Mrafles, and this Day was decently Interr’d ® @ ® at the Expence of his People, the Reverend Mr, Witriam Tompeson, Paftor of the firft Church o this Town— a very worthy and efleemable Gentle- man—found in the Faith— of exemplary Firfue and Goodnefs :—great Sincerity, Modsfly, Meeknefs, Deadncfs to Pojalarity—and a fri€tly confcientious, fleddy, even, habitual Fiety, and devout Regard to his Maker, Savi- our, and Sanlifier.—~ A Man of Prayer, eminently,— perhaps, no one, ever kept up in this Way, a more Sfated Intescourfe with Heaven, or fpent more of bis Time in it.— As he was @ Man of no Paffion:, his Religion did not fpend and difcover itfelf sbat /Vay—and its probable, that, a guarter Part of the Grace and Good- nefs that was in him, in the Generality of other Chriftians, would have been much more confpicuous and evident to the World. As he Lived, he Died, in an even, unrufiled, ferene, pleafant Frame and Temper of Mird, intirely refign’d to the Will of GOD—not inordinately defirous of Life—not afraid of Death— not having one Doubt of his good Litate, and to all Appearance, as perfe@ly calm and ealy, and compofed, in the Profpec? of Dying, as ever he was in going to fleep. As no Man, perhaps, ever more exallly anfwered that Scripture Charaler, i, and through his Life, ‘‘An Iraclite, in whom there awas no Guile > fo, in bis Death, that Account of the perfe&t ard upright Man, That, bis End is Peace,” was never more fignally verified. — As a Minifier, He was a traly Gojpel Scribe, amply Inftruled to the Kingdom of Heaven. His Bible was his Study and Delight : From a Child, he fet himfelf to kporw the Scriptares, and was equalled by few, and exceeded by none in his Acquaintance with them. And though it cannot be faid, that his Elocution and Delivery in the Pulpit, was the befi = yet what ke deli- wered in it, Was tho’t to be Jo, by the beft Judges—The Matter was ezer efteemed and admired by all Men of Senfc—though the Manner oftentimes did not do Juftice to it, among the undiflingui/bing Multitude. *l**#*fi*fi*'****’t*’*fl* ‘To the PupLisuer of the New Hamrpsuire Gazette, By giving the following Letter (to your Maflachufetts Man) a Place in yodr next GAzZETTE, you will eblige your Cuflomer, L D Province of New Hampsuire, March 13, 1759.

And how could your Legiflators make an A¢ again(t the taking of Money not in Being or Agitation at the Time of making fuch an A&t }— Moreover, are thefe Bills Bills of Credit of the Province of New - Hamp/bire, when no Perfons in New- Hampybire are fubjetted to any Tax for their Redemption ¥ Are they any Thing more or lefs than Notes for fo much Sterling Money now in England, or fo many feparate Bills of Exchange ? . And may not a Law which forbids the taking of this Money in your Province, as well prohibit taking a Bill of Exchange in your Province drawn here ? — Or that a negotiable Note endors’d by a Perfon in this Govern- ment, fhould not be received or recovered in yours 2 §i quid nowifli refius iflis 5 candidus imperts ; Si non bis wterere mecum.
