an English Independent minister, son of the foregoing, was born in London about 1673. He studied at the University of Utrecht; returning to England, was ordained co-pastor at Lime Street, with the Reverend Robert Bragge, in 1698, and was chosen one of the Merchants' lecturers. In 1702 he assisted at the ordination, in Mark Lane, of Dr. Isaac Watts. He was a good preacher, a friend of Matthew Henry, who informs us that he fell dead suddenly at his study door, March 19, 1714. See Wilson, Dissenting Churches, 1:240, 241.
