(d. 1783), was See also:born at Hawkstone, See also:Shropshire, on the 23rd of See also:August 1744. He was educated at See also:Shrewsbury, See also:Eton and St See also:John's See also:College, See also:Cambridge. Stimulated by See also:George See also:Whitefield's example, he scandalized the university authorities and his own See also:friends by See also:preaching and visiting the sick before he had taken orders. In 1773 he was appointed to the See also:parish of See also:Kingston, See also:Somersetshire, where he soon attracted See also:great crowds to his open-See also:air services. Having inherited consider-able See also:property, he built for his own use See also:Surrey See also:Chapel, in the Blackfriars Road, See also:London (1783). Hill conducted his services in accordance with the forms of the See also:- CHURCH
- CHURCH (according to most authorities derived from the Gr. Kvpcaxov [&wµa], " the Lord's [house]," and common to many Teutonic, Slavonic and other languages under various forms—Scottish kirk, Ger. Kirche, Swed. kirka, Dan. kirke, Russ. tserkov, Buig. cerk

Church of See also:England, in whose communion he always remained. Both at Surrey Chapel and in his provincial " See also:gospel See also:tours " he had great success. His See also:oratory was specially adapted for See also:rude and uncultivated audiences. He possessed a See also:voice of great See also:power, and according to See also:Southey " his manner " was " that of a performer as great in his own See also:line as See also:Kean or See also:Kemble." His See also:earnest and pure purposes more than made up for his occasional lapses from See also:good See also:taste and the eccentricity of his wit. He helped to found the Religious See also:Tract Society, the See also:British and See also:Foreign See also:Bible Society, and the London Missionary Society, and was a stout See also:advocate of See also:vaccination. His best-known See also:work is the See also:Village Dialogues, which first appeared in 181o, and reached a 34th edition in 1839. He died on the 11th of See also:April 1833.
