Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Cheshire and Lancashire Historical Collector, Vol. 1 The existence of the following MSS. letter and memorial was communicated to me by the Revd. R. B. Aspland, M.A., of Dukinfield, and to him I am indebted for the opportunity of giving publicity to them in these pages. The letter is addressed by Thomas Leadbealer, of the Hermitage, near Holmes Chapel, to the Revd. Henry Newcome. The latter was one of the most distinguished Nonconformists in this part of the country, and manifested a conscientious adherence to principle, by undergoing ejection from his Living. After being deprived of his church preferment he settled in Manchester, where he drew together a large congregation. His diary and autobiography has been published by the Chatham Society, and contain a great amount of curious and interesting information respecting persons resident in these parts. Leadbealer, though not possessing the extended fame of his friend Newcome, was a person of consideration and learning, and also remarkable for his genuine and unobtrusive piety. He was a native of Holmes Chapel, and baptized there, according to the register, in 1628. His education was completed at Cambridge, and, "in his younger days he was chaplain to the pious Lady Wimbledon." He was afterwards ejected from Hinckley, upon which he retired to his family estate at Hermitage, and during the indulgence in 1672, took out a licence for his house, though, as Calamy says: - "that he might give the less offence, he went to church first and preached at home afterwards." The following letter and memorial relate to this licence. He died in Wirrall, but was buried at Holmes Chapel, as the registers show, on the 7th November, 1679. For further particulars concerning him, reference may be made to "Calamy," and the diary and autobiography before mentioned.
