Death
On Sunday evening, the 21st inst. the Rev. Dr. Jonas Coe, Pastor of the Presbyterian Church in Troy [Rensselaer Co. NY] aged about 64 years. In his death the church has met with an irreparable loss and Christianity an able and faithful defender. He was a man of the strictest piety and without an enemy, led a life void of reproach.
The sweet remembrance of the just / Shall flourish, though they sleep in dust. Northern Budget
The following communication on the death of the Rev. Dr. Coe is copied from the last Farmers Register, printed at Troy:
"It has seldom fallen to our lot to record the death of a man so much beloved and so extensively useful. He has been a faithful and laborious servant in the vineyard of his Lord and Master. He has been a practical, an everyday preacher of the gospel. In the sacred desk, he has faithfully exhibited the humbling and purifying doctrines of the cross. In his daily walk and conversation, he has given a constant and living reproof to the profane, to the worldly-minded citizen and the cold professor. In his life, he exemplified the Christian duties; in his death, the Christian graces. His private character was truly amiable. He was an affectionate husband, the tenderest of parents. In his intercourse with society, he was truly polite, for his actions were regulated by the essence of politeness, true benevolence. In his last illness, he manifested the most perfect resignation to the will of heaven. After taking a most affectionate leave of his family, he died, or rather fell asleep in Jesus about 8 o'clock, without a struggle or a groan.
"His mind was tranquil and serene, / No terror in his looks were seen."
Well may an eyewitness say, "let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his." His loss will be deplored not only by his own church and congregation, to whose hearts he was very dear, but by many neighboring churches to whom he has been a father; by many neighboring pastors to whom he has been a counsellor and a friend, and by the Presbyterian church100 at large, in whose councils he has often presided."
