Tribute to the Memory of the late Rev . Dr . James Lindsay , ( Being the conclusion of a Sermon on the Excellence and Reward of Christian Integrity , from 2 Cor . i . 12 , preached at the New Gravel-Pit Meeting-house , Hackney , on the morning of Sunday , Feb . 25 , )
WITHOUT any direct application of this subject , every one that hears me would , I am sure , understand it as applying to a recent and memorable instance of mortality . To this event , I had made up my mind not to refer more particularly in this place than I did in the conclusion of the
sermon last Sunday morning ; but finding an expectation in some persons that a more particular tribute of respect would be here paid to my revered friend and brother , I could not refrain from indulging in the preceding

reflections on Christian , Integrity , the reflections which the view of his cha * racter most naturally excites , lest I should seem not to participate in the deep feeling at once of regret and of admiration which pervades so large a portion of the public .
The circumstances of Dr . Lind&a y * s death have , happily I may say , given a publicity to his character which in the ordinary course of events it might not have obtained , and it is well for the best interests of . mankind that such a
character should be fully and widely known . The suddenness of his departure was awful , and gave a temporary shock to every feeling of the heart . Yet as an eye-witness of the mournful
stroke , I now consider it as a most happy death . It was such a mode of dying , as , in dependance on the Divine will , he had ventured amongst his more intimate friends to declare desirable . It was unattended ( as far as
spectators could judge ) by the smallest sense of pain . The summons found the faithful servant of Christ at the post of duty . He fell in the arms of his brethren , who next to his family enjoyed his warmest affections ; and he breathed his last ia a place endeared
to him by numberless associations of ideas , the very place that , had it been permitted us to choose , we should have selected for his closing" scene * There seems a consistency in the order of Providence , that so public-spirited a life should terminate by a public death .
Sudden dissolution is deprecated in the prayers of some churches , on the too rational presumption that all men are not at all times prepared for their final account . In this case , no one could entertain such a fear . Our de *
parted brother had received a warning , if to his truly Christian mind any warning had been needful , in a long and severe illness , from which it appears he had but imperfectly recovered , and his character , always excellent , was ripened by his affliction , and his spirit was prepared for its translation to heaven .
The mind of Dr . Lindsay was hap ^ pily formed . His intellectual powers and his social affections were remarkably strong , and the purest moral and Christian principles put them in har-, monious action . Every one knows
