"Jemmy Swindle," who has tome years lived at
Fordington, died there on Wednesday, and a few
details of his history. showing "hew &ell he fought
his country's battles," will be read with interest by
those who knew him. The ileeetwed was nearly 90
year' if :KT, loving been born at Diiley, in Chnshile,
on April all, 17X7. Ile was in the American War
with General Wolfe in IAI2, and, serving with the
23rd Welsh Fusiliers, was taken prisoner. As a
drummer he served under the Duke of Wellington
all through the Peninsular War. He also served at
Liege, Badajoa, Salamanca, and Toulonee, and was
marching for Waterloo, but arrived at his destinati. in
the day after the memorable battle—on June Pith,
1&13. Ile was with the 2.3ril Fusiliers at the taking
of Ansholt, and, hessian( this awl other engagements
already enumerated, he took part in 13 skirml-hes,

Monday and Tuesslay evenings. Another of these
took place on Tuesday evening, when the room was
fille4l to overflowing, several having to go away, whilst
some occupied the Council-chamber adjoining, ha, ing
to stand during the (service. There has been great
interest manifested in the meetings, and the large
numbers assembling from time to time may be attri-
butes! to the fact that Mr. Hammond usually spends
the day in house to house visitation, inviting all to
attend. Before the address special prayer meetings
have been held, and an inquiry meeting ter those im-
pressed after the address, in the Council-chamber.
Ile former have been well attended, and to the latter
many have remained to be spoken to, whilst some
have made professions of religion, and testified to the
good received. Mr. Hammond on Tuesday selected as
his text J,ohoa ii., 21, on which he founded a power-
ful address id nearly a hour's length, earnestly appeal-
ing to his hearers to exercise saving faith in Chnst

the increase in the numbers of those attending, the

cemmittee the Young Men's tlwistien Aesociation,
and, this being a leanly nneeetarian welety, every
