St Michaels Church 23
——————
Qui Christo vivit perire nescit.

In memory of EDWARD JENKINS D. D.,
who died in April 1821 in Glamorganshire
in Wales, the place of his nativity. He
was educated at Jesus College Oxford,
And having removed to this Country,
was successively, Rector of the Churches
of St. Bartholomew, St. Michael & St. Philip.
Whilst he was Rector of St Michaels, his
orthodox principles as a Minister of the
Gospel, his abilities as a Preacher, his
assiduity as a Parochial Priest, his
candour, probity and benevolence,
his exemplary pious, and moral conduct
graced with the acquirements of the Scholar,
And polished manners of the Gentleman,
designated him as well qualified,
for the dignified station of
Bishop of South Carolina,
to which he was elected Deer. 20, 1804,
and which he declind, apprehensive
that his advanced age, might impede,
the punctual discharge of its duties.
Bereaved by death, of the Issue he had
by his beloved wife, a native of this State,
He showed a Parental kindness,
to the children and grandchildren,
whom she had by a former husband.
They to record his worth, and their gratitude.
Here place this inadequate Memorial.
"The righteous shall be had in everlasting remembrance."
Psalm 112 Ver. 6
[East Wail.]
