The Life And Legacy Of John Booth
“With mingled feelings of pleasure and sorrow I accede to the request to write a short Foreword to the memoir of the life of my late beloved and esteemed friend. His removal is a great personal loss to me, having walked in loving friendship with him for about thirty years. Unbroken fellowship is a choice and rare privilege in these days when misunderstanding too often sadly mars our communion.

The Life And Death Of William Vaughan
He was born in Shropshire in the year 1811, and at the early age of four was the subject of divine impressions which never left him. From early life a work of grace was begun and carried on in his soul, as will be seen in the account written by himself, which will shortly be published, together with Mr. A. B. Taylor's address at the chapel at Bradford on the day of the funeral; also a funeral sermon preached by myself on the following Sunday morning.

The Life And Ministry Of Samuel Richardson
It is probable from his name being signed with that of Mr. Spilsbury’s to the “Confession of Faith” that he was his colleague. He published a Pamphlet in reply to Dr. Featly’s virulent work against the Baptists. This consists of 18 quarto pages, and is entitled, “Some brief considerations on Doctor Featly his Book, intituled, The Dipper Dipt, wherein, in some measure, is discovered his many great and false accusations of divers persons, commonly called Anabaptists, with an Answer to them, and some brief reasons for their practices.”

The Life And Ministry Of Nehemiah Coxe
It is supposed that this eminent man was the son of Mr. Benjamin Coxe mentioned in our history of the Bedfordshire churches. This will account for his extraordinary learning notwithstanding the low station in Society he occupied at one period of his life. Dr. Coxe is frequently noticed in the records of the church at Bedford. He was admitted a member the 3rd of May 1669, and was one of those persons called to the ministry with the celebrated John Bunyan.

The Life And Ministry Of William Collins
He was ordained joint elder of this church with Dr. Nehemiah Coxe, July 21, 1673. Their names appear to an excellent letter, addressed to the Rev. Andrew Gifford of Bristol, proving it to be the duty of unconverted men to pray, in 1675. Also a letter inviting the churches in England and Wales to send their ministers to. London for the purpose of consulting on some important subjects connected with the prosperity and respectability of the denomination.

The Life And Ministry Of Samuel Ewer
When the people here separated from Kensworth we have no account; probably about the period of the Revolution, as we find Mr. Ewer attending the general Assemblies in London, both in 1689, and 1692. His name is signed to the “confession of faith,” and several resolutions. Crosby says, “He was a generous worthy man, well beloved and respected by his people.” He died in 1708, and his funeral sermon was preached by Mr. John Piggott of London, December 44, 1708, from Ecclesiastes 9:5. For the living know that they must die. Mr. Piggott in giving his character designates him “an excellent minister of the gospel,” and adds,
