But during the last months he was with his kind affectionate,
attentive Aunt and Uncle, who have been long in the ways of God,
and have had a most clear and blessed experience of grace and
truth themselves, they were often highly delighted to see the work
of grace so eminently displayed in their dear little suffering nephew.
Many precious things he said to me, but as a father, perhaps it might
be attributed to weakness, or an inordinate affection for a son, if I
made any remarks. ’Tis however very pleasing to me that his dear
Aunt was enabled to seize a few opportunities, secretly, to pen down
some of those words which fell from him at times. A few only, can
be asserted here, but which plainly indicates the work of grace upon
his heart, by the confession of his lips, and sweetly proving, that out
of the mouth of this dear child God had ordained his own glory.
The contents of the following letter, sent to me by his Aunt, I beg
leave also to insert, without a single comment of my own.
Dear Brother,
Believing you would be desirous of knowing the dealings of the Lord
with your dear child, I have endeavored to preserve a small part of
what fell from his lips during the last weeks of his afflicted life. I say
a small part, because the whole, had it not been for the necessary
and close attention to his person, would have swelled a volume.
Previous to the time when he was confined to his bed, which was
the latter end of December, when I had an opportunity to set with
him, he would often talk on divine subjects, and appeared deeply
interested in the things that pertained to his own salvation. He
mentioned several sermons he had heard Dr. Andrews, of Walworth,
preach, but particularly one, from, Oh my Dove, that art in the cleft
of the rock. He ran through the several ideas that was advanced,
with great correctness and interest. At another time when we were
conversing about eternal things, he said, Aunt, I should not be afraid
to die, if I was sure I had an interest in Christ! You know it is
possible to be deceived, and many people are. I never said so much
to any one as I have to you. I talked to my dear father, and he
answered me much the same as you have.
About the middle of February, when helping him out of bed, very
helpless, and in great pain, he said, Aunt, I seem to have a hope
that I shall be saved! Do you not think that answer to prayer is
some evidence? and I am sure that many of my poor simply prayers
have been answered.
February 26.—He held a truly interesting conversation with his
Uncle, expressing the strongest desire to know if he was truly drawn
to Christ! On the evidences being given to him, he appeared much
refreshed, and said, It may be when I am nearer to death that the
Lord may give me a full assurance. He often said how good the Lord
is; I have more to be thankful for than to complain of! Once he
said, Well Aunt, who can tell but the Lord may cure me? and if he
does not, he will do a great deal better for me!—But for want of
time, I must omit many very blessed things, and relate what more
particularly transpired towards the close. The few last days in
February, and the first and second of March, he was in great pain,
and there was an evident alteration for the worst. In the night of
the second of March, he said, Oh! affliction! affliction! My poor body
is quite worn out! Oh! I wish for more patience and resignation.
Aunt, I had rather lay here, with all my pains, than be running about
the streets, in health, like many boys I know, cursing and swearing,
and sinning against God. In the same night, he said, Oh! I hope we
shall meet in Heaven! On my expressing the same hope, he cried
out, Ah! but I want more than hope! I want assurance! Oh! I hope
the Lord will sanctify this affliction.
Lord’s day, March the third.—He asked me to read. After reading the
word, and some hymns, he smiled, and said, How precious that is! I
wish you had nothing else to do but to talk and read to me. In the
evening of that day, he was in great pain. From twelve at night till
three in the morning, his tongue was like the pen of a ready-writer.
I said to him, My dear, have you long had serious thoughts about
your soul? He answered, No, Aunt, not any thing particularly, till
within a twelvemonth. How was it at the beginning with you? Why,
I was very much alarmed for fear I should go to hell! I used to have
such dark horror on my mind as I cannot describe! I used to cry till
I fell asleep, and then I used to dream it was the day of judgment,
and wake very much terrified! I dreamt this a great many times. I
cannot tell you what I went through, with the dark horror at day,
and the terrifying dreams at night. Did you not feel at times, hopes
springing up, that the Lord would save you, through Christ Jesus?
Yes, very often, when I have been hearing my father, and Dr.
Andrews, but afterwards I have been much distressed, for fear they
were not right hopes. I never talked about what I felt. I thought
people might think as I was a child that I heard a great deal about
religion, it was what I had picked up—then added, with a strong
voice and great satisfaction, But I know that what I picked up then,
does me good now! Aunt, the last time I sung that hymn, Ah! I
shall soon be dying, I never sung so in my life! I sung and cried! I
sung as if I had another voice besides my own—I was so full of joy.
—I spoke to Him of the great love of God, in calling him to the
knowledge of himself, and bringing him to Jesus, for life and
salvation. He replied, Oh! it is a great love. I keep you awake, but
my heart is so full that I cannot help talking. This is but a small part
of what passed on that, to me, memorable night.
March the 4th.—A young man was saying, when he was about
thirteen years of age, he was so ill that used to pray to die. Samuel
remarked after he was gone, That he did not know what death was,
nor what it was to have a hell in his heart, or else he would not talk
so.—Aunt, what a very precious hymn that is: All the fitness he
requireth, is to feel your need of Him.—Oh! I hope I shall be able to
say, as dear Mrs. Lawson said, when near death, I know in whom I
have believed.—I hope my father will not grieve when I die—why
should he? He often said, O that my warfare was ended.
March the 5th.—Very comfortable all day. About eleven at night, he
suffered much. He said, Oh! I am quite worn out! I hope I shall not
be long. It seems as if I could leave all now—Aunt, I can leave you!
I hope I shall not suffer much at last—do you think I shall? I do not
think you will my dear, but in all your sufferings the Lord will support
you; you are not without sweet support now, are you? Oh, no! I
am greatly supported, What a mercy it is to have promises to rest
on. Oh! I want to go—not so much to get rid of suffering, as to see
Jesus, which is better. Adding, Aunt, this is a comfort to me, you will
not be long after me, nor uncle neither.—Once, when holding him up
in my arms, he feared I should let him fall and cried out, Hold me
up, hold me up! After a short pause, in a very expressive manner,
said, Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe; and then to me, As thy
day is, so shall thy strength be.
One day, he said, I have longed when I have seen people go down
into the water to be baptized, to go too. He was answered, That
there was no salvation in water. He replied, Oh! I know that, but
you know it is so sweet to follow the Lord! At another time, he said,
Aunt, I have a secret hope, that if I was to recover, the Lord would
never let me forget his goodness to me; these afflictions would be
useful to me through life. Once, when in great pain, he said, Its
only weaning—I want a great deal of weaning. Oh what a mercy to
be reconciled to the will of the Lord. The Lord is very good.
The following Saturday, when lifting him into bed, he said, Oh! Aunt,
may the Lord give me patience, and you strength. I answered, I
believe he will. And though we could mot see the end of the Lord,
in thus afflicting him, yet if not before, we should in the light of
glory. He answered, What a mercy to know we are going there. I
hope my dear you know for yourself, you are going there? He
replied with great firmness, Yes, I can say I believe I am.—And last
night (alluding to some hours of great pain and agony) he said, If I
could have spoken, though my poor body was so much afflicted, and
my patience almost gone, I could have said, I know I am going to
glory! He added, If I am not deceived, I hope I am not. Oh! what a
great thing to be reconciled to the will God. Oh! pray for me, that I
may have more patience to hold out.
March 26.—For several hours in great extremity of pain, but declared
himself happy in soul.—Something having been said about faith, he
answered, Ah! it is easy enough to talk about faith, but to be
afflicted as I am, then we see how little faith we have got. Oh!
Aunt, pray for me? Ask the Lord, Oh! do, do! Observe, this latter
expression, Ask the Lord, was continually his request. I once said to
him, then you believe the Lord heareth prayer? He answered with
great quickness, Yes, and answering too. Being encouraged not to
fear, he said, But sometimes I have fears! But why art thou cast
down, Oh my soul? This day, when much distressed in body, he
said, But why should I complain? What did the Lord suffer?
He sunk beneath our heavy woes
To raise us to a throne;
There’s not a gift his hand bestows,
But cost his heart a groan!
March 28.—He said, Aunt, I am not desirous to live, but I hope I
shall not go off in agony. Oh! Oh! let me be the subject of your
prayers, continually! Oh! spend all your time in wrestling for me.
Lord’s day, March 31.—In the afternoon a few friends came to see
him, and a few hours he was cheerful, and free from pain. About
ten, his pains became intolerable. It was a time of great distress.
Between eleven and twelve, he became more easy, and a sweet
colour appeared in his countenance. He said, Aunt, when I am in
glory I shall sing as loud as any one, The crowned Lord of all. Oh! I
long to go—I long to be singing hallelujah! He then sung Hallelujah,
hallelujah! He then repeated the whole of the hymn, Grace, ’tis a
charming theme; laying a particular emphasis on the words, Wrote
my name—repeating (My name). Oh! I long to be singing. Crown
him Lord of all! Calling to his Uncle in the next room, to come,
Crown him Lord of all! On its being complied with, he joined with
the sweetest voice. On our retiring to the next room, he sung alone,
in a soft voice, a great part of the hymn, called Gethsemane. He
then called, Uncle; come and sing again? On his replying, My dear;
I am very low, he said, never mind, I will help you! He then sweetly
joined in, Grace, ’tis a charming sound. At the conclusion, he said,
It is all of grace. Oh! I long to Crown him Lord of all! He requested
his Uncle to go to prayer? When concluded, he shook him by the
hand, saying, I thank you, I thank you.—Monday.—Extremely low all
day. On turning him in bed, he said, Oh! what should I do without
you? but instantly added, in a louder voice, What should I do
without the Lord?
Tuesday, April 2nd.—A day full of pain and distress indeed. About
noon, he said, I shall not be long here! I expressed a hope of
meeting him in glory. He answered, Yes, I do not fear that. I
replied, yes, for He is able to save to the uttermost. He replied, If
he has not saved you, he never will—adding, Saved from the
beginning of the world! What a mercy Aunt, to be in Christ?—
Wednesday.—Very low all day. Several times in the day he
expressed a desire to depart, and be with Christ. He cried out, Oh!
this poor sinful body—a body of sin and death!—Late at night, he
sighed, and said, Lord, what is man!—Thursday.—Suffered much all
day. About noon, he said, To-morrow is Good Friday—Ah! what did
the Lord suffer for us? And in a very emphatic manner, said, Oh
Gethsemane!—Friday.—Evidently much worse. About noon he was
very restless. I said, My dear, who can place your pillow easy? He
replied, Only one God—must be my physician. About noon, he said,
Oh! pray to the Lord to take me very soon? Then you are willing to
go to him? He replied, Yes, before tea time, if it was the Lord’s will!
Oh that I could fall asleep in his arms. Oh! wrestle Aunt, Oh!
wrestle! On uttering a few short petitions in his behalf, he
affectionately thanked me, saying, Oh that our united prayers may
be answered. About three o’clock, he said, Oh! why doth he tarry so
long? Oh that his chariot was waiting for me! On assuring him that
was the case—that the holy angels were surrounding him, to convey
him before the throne of God and the Lamb, he cried, Oh that he
would come quickly! Oh! to hear the sound of his chariot wheels!
Why doth he tarry so long? When about to fall asleep in his arms,
he whispered:
Cease fond nature, cease thy strife,
Let me languish into life.
The remainder of the evening spent in great pain, but fervent
expressions after the coming of the Lord, often crying, Oh! ask the
Lord why is his chariot so long in coming! About three in the
morning, he fell into a sleep, and without pain or groan, sweetly fell
asleep in Jesus.
Thus terminated the life of this believer in Jesus. May you, and I,
and all his dear friends, be partakers of the like precious faith.
Amen.
Your’s, most affectionately,
E. Bonner.
Farewell, my dear son—and while I embalm thy memory with tears,
a Gospel hope points me to a time when I shall meet you again, in
the sacred blissful presence of a reigning Saviour, and a smiling
God. Amen.
FINIS.

remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a
secure and permanent future for Project Gutenberg™ and future
generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary

Section 4. Information about Donations to
the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
Foundation
Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without
widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can
be freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the
widest array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many
small donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to
maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS.
The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and
keep up with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in
locations where we have not received written confirmation of
compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of
compliance for any particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate.
While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where
we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no
prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in
such states who approach us with offers to donate.
International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation
methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of
other ways including checks, online payments and credit card
donations. To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate.
Section 5. General Information About
Project Gutenberg™ electronic works
Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that could be
freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose network of
volunteer support.
Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several printed
editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
edition.
Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
facility: www.gutenberg.org.
This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™,
including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how
to subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
