Much of his time he then devoted to reading and reflection, making the Bible and religious books the objects of his special attention. He was a decided Unitarian, and would "speculate with considerable ability on subjects which have found able and opposite advocates in the Christian Church." He was an occasional contributor to the columns of the Christian Register. He died Nov. 2, 1844, aged 74. Children :-
