Christening Extraordinary,—Saml. Ferry, of Burton Bradstock, near Bridport, labourer, aged 50, having lately witnessed the ceremony of baptism, and knowing that his parents had never presented him to the font for that purpose, was forcibly stuck with the necessity of conforming to the ritual of the church; he therefore applied to the Rev. Mr. Cox a few days since, who performed the ceremony. His sponsors were not so old as himself; it is however rumoured that this step is preparatory to his being married. |
