Francis Richardson Richmond , iron merchant in that place , and a member of the Unitarian congregation there . A high sense of honour , unbending integrity , and uudeviating regularity , characterized his habits of business aud the general tenor of
his life . His early education was in the Church of England , which he quitted from personal conviction of the truth of the more simple system to which he continued attached until his death . His attendance on public worship was unintermitted , and his fellow-worshipers , by attending his funeral in a body , testified their seuse of the loss which the
congregation has sustained by his early death . He had also acquired a title to the respect of his townsmen in general , by his services in puhlic offices ; and the illness which terminated in his death was supposed to have originated in over exertion and fatigue in the discharge of one of his public duties . His disorder was attended
with violent pain , and confined him to his room for about three months , and after it had apparently subsided , and he was pronounced nearly convalescent , a relapse hurried him off within a fortnight . The Rev . Mr . Meeke delivered a judicious discourse relative to the melancholy event on the Sunday after the interment .
