(Witness) BioJOHN ALDERSON, SEN.

No man of his day was more distinguished among the Baptists, than he whose name precedes this sketch. He was one of the earliest evangelical preachers of western Virginia. To him are many of the churches indebted under God for their existence and growth. He was born in Yorkshire, England, and came to this country when quite young. The circumstances under which he left his native land were peculiar.

His father, a minister of useful talents, and respectable character, opposed, with considerable violence, a matrimonial connexion he was about to form. To divert the attention of his son from this alliance, he prevailed on him to travel, and furnished him with a horse and the requisite fluids. In a short time these means were exhausted, and the prodigal was at length bound on board a vessel, which brought him, without the consent or knowledge of his parents, to America. On arriving in this country, he was hired by the captain for his passage money to a respectable farmer of New Jersey by the name of Curtis. His conduct during his term of labor was such as to gain the esteem of Mr. Curtis. He afterwards married his daughter, and was highly respected by all with whom he became acquainted.

A short period subsequent to his marriage, the subduing grace of God arrested him. - He became a joyful believer in Christ Jesus, and was baptized in his name. With his characteristic energy, he at-once began to recommend the Saviour to others. Having removed to Germantown, Penn., he continued in that vicinity to preach the gospel until the year 1755, when he removed to the county of Rockingham, Virginia. Upon his settlement in this state, he applied himself to the work of the ministry, and within twelve months a Baptist church was constituted, called Smith's and Lynville creek church, in the county of Rockingham. He became their pastor. This connexion was retained about sixteen years, when he removed to the county of Bottetourt. In the year 1781, about nine years after his removal, he was called to the rest of heaven.2
