MEMOIRS

OF THE

REV. RICHARD WHATCOAT,

LATE BISHOP

OF THE

METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH.

BY WILLIAM PHOEBUS, M.D.

"Smitten friends are angels sent on errands full of love;
For us they languish, and for us they die:
And shall they languish, shall they die in vain ?
Ungrateful, shall we grieve their hov'ring shades,
Which wait the revolution in our heart?
Shall we disdain their silent, soft address,
Their posthumous advice, and pious prayer

·?"

Young.
