MEMOIR

OF

ELDER BENJAMIN TAYLOR,

A Minister of the Christian Connexion,

AND

PASTOR OF THE BETHEL CHURCH

IN PROVIDENCE, R. I.

By E. EDMUNDS,

PASTOR OF THE OHRISTIAN CHURCH, SUMMER ST., BOSTON.

"Lives of sainted ones remind us
We can make our lives sublime-
And, departing, leave behind us
Footsteps on the sands of time;
Footprints that perhaps another,
Sailing o'er life's solemn main,
A forlorn and shipwrecked brother,
Seeing, shall take heart again."

BOSTON:

GEORGE W. WHITE, PRINTER,
SCOLLAY'S BUILDING, COURT STREET.

1850.
