John Farndale, son of Joseph and Mary
Farndale, was born at Nunthorpe, near Ayton, in Yorkshire, and died at New Shildon,
Darlington Circuit, September 1st 1862,
aged forty three years, His parents were moral and his mother has for a number
of years been connected with the Wesleyan Society. About eighteen years ago he removed
to New Shildon, and began occasionally to attend the chapel, but did not become
decidedly religious until about four years ago, when there was a gracious
revival. For some time he was under heavy conviction,
and could not find any rest for his soul, until one day when at work alone, he
realised a sense of sin forgiven, and was made happy in Go. He immediately
joined our society, and remained a steady, consistent, and devoted Christian up
to the time of his death. He was a teacher in our Sabbath school,
and laboured with much earnestness in our prayer meetings. He was emphatically
a man of prayer, not only in his closet, but he regularly conducted family worship,
reading his Bible and praying with and for his family. About three years ago
the diseased which terminated in his death commenced, but in all his affliction
he was resigned to the will of God. He was frequently visited by the friends
who generally found him with a Bible or Testament near him,.
Repeating such passages as the following, “Many are the afflictions of the
righteous, but the Lord delivereth him out of them
all.” “our light affliction, which are but for a
moment,” etc. and “Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I
will fear no evil.” In the ;last struggle he was more
than conqueror; death to him had lost its sting. He exclaimed in triumph, “Glory
be to God! Glory be to God!” About half an hour before he died, he called his children
to him and told them to love Jesus, and be good to their mother, and then he softly
fell asleep in Jesus.
