The death of ministers improved. Or, an exhortation to the inhabitants of Horsley on Glocester-shire, and others, on the much lamented death of that reverend and faithful minister of the Gospel, Mr. Henry Stubbs By Tho. Vincent, John Turner, Rob. Perrott, M. Pemberton. To which is added a sermon upon that occasion, by Richard Baxter.
THis hour being designed to such a commemoration of our deceased friend, Mr. Stubbs, as is laudably used at such mens Funerals, I have chosen words of this Text, which the heart and life of this holy man did so constantly express, that doubtless the same Spirit suggested them to blessed Paul and him.
