| Description | Archival box 9, contains sermons and obituaries. For example: A letter from William Stewart to Jabez Bunting, Dublin, in which he refers to the death of Mrs Elizabeth Stacy of Dublin, 'she joined the Methodist connexion, at about the age of ten years in 1784. A great revival took place in the society, many were converted and she obtained a great sense of her acceptance with God through Christ, and from that period, retained it to the close of her life. She was a most uniform and unexceptional Christian character and eminently blessed with the ornament of a meek and quiet speech. During the whole of her distressing illness, which was dropsy in the chest, she was divinely supported in her mind, and happily preserved from anxiety, doubt and fear. The love of life was completely taken away, and death, to her, had lost all his terrors', 6 September 1823. Funeral sermon for Mrs Martha Rogers, 1804. Sermon on Miss Mary Wesley, no date. Sermon on the death of Hester Ann Rogers, no date. |
