mind , by producing an entire resignation to the will of God , which was evinced throughout hts ifttfess . He was often found in the attitude of prayer ; and about three hours before his death , when he was no longer able to raise himself in his bed , he requested his friends to
pray for and with hjm , and then , without the smallest symptom of pain , and even without a sigh , expired . Thus does the providence of God display its attestation to virtue even here ;
for this amiable youeh was never the cause of one moment ' s pain , by any illtemper or Gon&v&t , to his parents , who , with a melancholy satisfaction , pay this tribute to his memory .

parent . . Such a course of Unwearied application to a laborious calling might seem very unfavourable to study , and yet these youths devoted all the spare houtti they could gain front their business td it few books which chance threw in their
way . This disposition for literary jnirsuits , added to their sobriety and industry made them the subject of general conver sation ; and at length a subscription was formed , by which the eldest was enaMed to quit the loom for the grammar-schboL Here Joseph applied to the classics with
such diligence as to be soon qualified fbr the University of Cambridge , where he proceeded to the degree of M . A .
