| Surname | Ward | | First names | Wm. | | Rank/ occupation | Reverend & author | | Death date | 7 Mar 1823 | | Place of death | Serampore | | Source | Gentleman's Magazine | | Date | Sep 1823 | | Page number | 283 | | Detail | At Serampore, the Rev. Wm. Ward, of cholera morbis. He was ill only one day, and the progress of the disease was so rapid and violent, as to incapacitate him from conversation. The literary labours of Mr. Ward, his efforts for upwards of 20 years in printing the Sacred Scriptures in the languages of the East, and his indefatigable ardour in evangelising the natives of Hindostan, endeared him to thousands; and his death will be deplored as a serious loss to the Christian world. About 25 years ago he resided at Hull, and edited the Hull Advertiser. |
