Excerpt from Records Concerning Those Members of the Bull Family, Who Are Descendants of or Connected With the Rev. William Bull (of Newport Pagnell)

He died in the latter end of the year (22nd March, as I have been informed) of 1680, and was buried in the yard' belonging to his sometime Church in the ancient borough of Dorchester. What I have farther to observe of this person is (1) That he was one of the Assistant Commissioners of Dorsetshire and Pool for the ejecting of such whom they then (1 654) called scandalous, ignorant, and insufficient Ministers and Schoolmasters. (2) That though he lived to be 80 years of age, yet he never used Spectacles, though he read and wrote much, writing all his Sermons generally as large as he delivered, them except the words of the texts of Scripture cited by him (3) That it was always his custom, especially when he was at home, to pray in his study seven times a day, and in his prayers to give God thanks for certain deliver ances of him from dangers which happened. - 5th June, 1636.
