On Monday evening last, as Mr. John Dewit, a very pious
young man, was officiating as a member of a religious
society, in a house on Cowfoot Hill, he expired in the
following melancholy manner: After praying, he gave out an
hymn, in singing which he accompanied the society, then read
a chapter, took a seat, and seemed very solemn. . .
