1His Parents were both of them forward professors of the Gospel of Christ, and of the power of Godliness and Religion, according as it is now maintained in the Church of England. They were both of chief note and place in the Town, his Father being oft Major, and a long time a standing Justice of Peace in that Borough. His Mother was a rare woman for natural parts; but chiefly for Piety, Diligence in her Calling, Frugality and Mercifulness to the poor. She was a right Lois or Eunice in breeding up this her Son (as she did her other Children) in the Knowledge of the holy Scriptures from a child.
