THE WESLEYAN CONFERENCE
The Reading of Obituaries (John's father-in-law)
The Rev. Spence Hardy was for many years a missionary in Ceylon. He was a very superior Eastern scholar, and his researches into Budhism are well known far beyond his own denomination.NOTE: The same article gives a longer obituary to Rev. John Scott, who could be the father of this Rev. John Scott. The former was born at Copmanthorpe, near York, in 1792. He died in Jan 1868 at Blackheath. He was in service for the ministry for 56 years, and for more than 30 years was an officer of the Foreign Missionary Society.
Great grandmother of Niels Hardy Scott.
