And the meeting, which waited, like Absalom in the gate, for all the dis- contented, and promised to supply all their wants, soon filled itself with the stragglers. But the young incumbent broke his neck in a fox-chase; and his wretched father, softened and shocked at the event, and at the state of the parish, appointed such a pastor to the living as made every good man's heart leap for joy. Our meeting was soon, in its turn, abandoned ; and I slumbered over a large surface of empty pews. Upon ...this the chapel was closed ; and I, . With the pulpit, conveyed once more to a pawnbroker's. The pulpit was bought by an auctioneer, and I by the church* wardens of this very parish ; who, finding rates high, and com low, and velvet scarce* ( 138 ) scarce, on account of a war with the continent, carried me off, torn and tar- nished as I was, with a phrase not very honourable either to* me or to the esta- blishment, saying 'this 'ull do. ' Thus, then, Sir, bearing the burden of the fat- ter of these church dignitaries, I was jolted down to this happy valley.
