Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Poets of the Church: A Series of Biographical Sketches of Hymn-Writers; With Notes on Their Hymns Sarah Fuller was the second daughter of Benjamin Flower, "one of the fathers of English journalism." He was the son of George Flower (1710-1778), a wealthy tradesman of London, and one of the deacons of the dissenting congregation (Rev. Edward Hitchins), worshipping in White´s Row, Spitalfields, and was an intimate friend and correspondent of Toplady. The wife of George Flower was a sister of Richard and William Fuller, for whom two of her sons were named. The summer residence of the family was at Tooting, Surrey. There they became attached to the society under the care of the Rev. Samuel Wilton, D.D., and when in 1776 he became the pastor of the Weigh House Chapel, Little Eastcheap, London, they, too, became members of that society. Toplady, Flower, and Wilton all died the same year - 1778. Dr. Wilton was succeeded by the Rev. John Clayton, who, in 1779, manned Mary, the elder daughter of Mrs. Flower. Of their children, three - John, George, and William - became Independent ministers, two of them London pastors of much distinction. Benjamin Flower, having been unfortunate in business, for five years served a commercial house at Rotterdam as a travelling agent, and, by his intercourse with politicians of the Continent, became a thorough radical.
