Luke Lloyd, Esquire, of the Bryn in Hanmer Parish, my aged worthy Friend, finished his Course with Joy, March 31. 1695. being Lord's Day. He was in the Eighty Seventh Year of his Age, and had been Married almost Sixty Nine Years to his pious Wife (of the same Age) who still survives him. He was the Glory of our little Congregation, the Top branch in all respects of our small Vine, and my Friend indeed.

[When he made his Will, under the Subscription of his Name he wrote, Job 19. 25, 26, 27. On which Text of Scripture (I know that my Redeemer liveth, &c.) Mr. Henry, at the Request of some of his Relations, preached a Sermon at the Licensed House near Hanmer, some time after his Funeral; in which Sermon, he bore a very honourable Testimony to that worthy Gentleman, who (as he saith) went to Heaven without a Blot, held fast his Integrity, and was lively and zealous in the Christian Profession to the end of his Days. He was very Exemplary for his Love to the Ordinances of God, and his Delight in attending on them, his living upon Christ for Strength and Righteousness, his great Humility and Condescending obliging Carriage in all his Converse. He was a Man of great Courage and Resolution; and yet in Prayer, Tender and Self-abasing, to admiration, often melting into Tears in the Confession of Sin; and his Charity and Moderation were known unto all Men.
