A Memorial of Mr George Frost Benjamin Wickens

Mr George Frost was the Pastor at the Strict Baptist chapel at Jarvis Brook for 21 years. He was a former fisherman from Essex who was called by Grace to become a fisher of men. Unusually Mr Frost preached the sermon at his own baptism and was baptised by the deacon as the minister was taken ill and, despite every effort, no substitute could be found. This book contains a brief account of Mr Frost's life, written by his wife, as well as an account of the funeral, the funeral sermon by Mr James Dickens, several of Mr Frost's letters and four of his sermons. One sermon was an address at Christ Church, Crowborough which was, at that time, a Free Church of England place of worship.
