Θ A BRIEF MEMOIR OF 2630P MRS. JANE PALLISTER, OF PRESTON, NEAR HULL, Who was a consistent Member of the Wesleyan Methodist WITH A FAITHFUL ACCOUNT OF THE WONDERFUL APPEARANCES AFTER HER DECEASE: BY JOHN PALLISTER. LONDON: JOSEPH NOBLE, 20, GILTSPUR-STREET; AND 23, MARKET-PLACE, HULL. WE, whose names are hereunto subscribed, were WITNESSES of the wonderful Phenomena which rested upon and surrounded the corpse and shroud of the late Mrs. PALLISTER, of Preston, near Hull, as described in this book; although the description falls very short of the reality. We further assert that we are individually willing to make oath before any Magistrate, and at any time, to the truth of this testimony. The numbers might have been increased to hundreds; but it is supposed the following will be sufficient. The religious professions are added to each signature, to obviate the possibility of suspicion as to prejudice, or to warrant the charge of fanaticism. MEMOIR, &c. A truly pious Author and Clergyman of the Church of England*, has observed, "It is a delightful employment to discover and trace the operations of divine grace as they are manifested in the dispositions and lives of God's real children. It is peculiarly gratifying to observe how frequently, among the poorer classes of mankind, the sunshine of mercy beams upon the heart, and bears witness to the image of Christ, which the Spirit of God has impressed thereupon. Among such, the sincerity and simplicity of the Christian character appear unencumbered by those obstacles *The late Rev. Legh Richmond, vide the Dairyman's Daughter. |
