George Whitefield: A Biography, with special reference to his labors in America

FOOTNOTES:

[1] Dr. Prince, in a note, here says, "Though people were then," in the time of the earthquake, "generally frightened, and many awakened to such a sense of their duty as to offer themselves to our communion, yet very few came to me then under deep convictions of their unconverted and lost condition, in comparison of what came now. Nor did those who came to me then, come so much with the inquiry, 'What shall we do to be saved?' as to signify they had such a sense of their duty to come to the Lord's table that they dare not stay away any longer."

[2] The New York Evangelist, in 1830, made the remark, that "Whitefield would have lost much of his oratorical influence on his hearers, had his speaking eyes been covered with a pair of modern spectacles."

[3] See Dr. John M. Mason's Funeral Sermon for Mrs. Graham.

[4] The Rev. Richard Knill of Chester, formerly a missionary in India, and afterwards in Russia, since deceased.—B.
