The raemorabld William Jsoa of Sir William,

Iished by law in Oxford, and held private reli-1
gtous meetings with those of his own belief This
gave offence to the heads Lf the college, and he
was persecuted for non-conformity.
As! he refused to submit, he was expelled from
Oxford, and returned home! where he constantly
showed a preference for the companv of sober
and religious persons
ihs. His father, who was more
a - "
a man of the worlds tried Jvery effort to induce
him to abandon his fellowship with the Quakers,
thinking that it would bo dj great obstacle to his
preferment. But persuasion, and even trips, had
no effect to make the young man forsake his prin
ciples, and he renamed a shining example of
moral and rougious purity in a corrupt and been-
uousage. At last, his tuner became so incensea
at his firmness that he tfirned him out of his
house, l'his is, perhapsjthe only eminent in
stant of a son punished by ja father for persever
ance in well doing! f
The young William bore his misfortunes with
meekness and patience, so that m a short time
lib father's aftectidns were restored, and he was
shortly af er sent to makn the tour bf France.
He returned so gorxl a scholar, and with . manners
so accomplished, that his father -or.sidered the
subject of his travel answered, and received him
with great satisfaction. Indeed he had become
a coinbt aid accomplished goa lroin
At the; age of twenty ire was strongly tempt

sent him into Ireland to take care of an estate
he had in thai country, ad thre he entered into
full communion with th Friends. This was
partly caused by hts being imprisoned, together
with several othcrsfor attending a religious meet
ing He was soon discharged by - the interces
sion of the Earl of Orrerjr, and immediately as
6uived the dress and manners of a Quaker,
which su.jjccted him .to infinite redicule and con
tempt, j . . 1 . - 1
Hearing of what be had done, his father sent
for him home, and did rfis utmost to' persuade
him to abandon tlie profession he had assumed,
anditcoyvhb affectionate heart a hard struggle
to withdraw th entreaties which his father ad
dressed to him, lwping tti persuade him to study
for worldly advancement! However, he did re
sist, and that to a degreei which his friends conld
not altogether, approve ,i'
One tiling on which Sir William insisted was,
that-his sou should take! off his hat before the
king1, the duke ol York nd himself. -Undoubtedly
it would have done no harm to comply,
but he thought such a pfece of ceremony wrong,
and desired tune to consider. Thinking he meant
to cousul t fith his Quaker friends, his father
forbade him to see tbeni, aud shut him up in
his chamber, where he fold him he should be
read) to give bis answer. After some time
given to renVetion he told Sir William that his
conscience would not sufl'ei him to comply with
his desire. This sonraged tbe father, that be
agaiit turned him out o d'ors. This condact
inav be wrong, but it cadnot be doubted that the
young man acted coQscieuti'jusly, and what he
thought his; dyty I .
Atler this; his father became convinced that
his conduct arose from a ireg ird to principle, and
not from peirverjeneis or obstinacy, and there
fore : suffered him tii return iomn. And when
ever he wa-4 imprisoned for attending Quaker
meeting, as he freq jeiitl was, Sir Witliaoi con
trived to get him released.
In ithe twenty-fiurth year, of hUage, Will
iam fjenn felt hi nseif ca led by heaven, to preach
to others, those principils in whicii tie hiraitell,
