Död 25 apr 1821.- Han omtalades såsom en mycket fridsam, stilla och flärdfri man.
Emot allmogen var han så hjelpsam och tjenstaktig att han ofta därföre tillsatte näterna varaf följde att naturen sedan tog ut sin rätt och han till och med på predikstolen någon gång insomnade, utom att dock förlora sammanhanget i sitt föredrag, hvilket han efter några minuters uppehåll åter fortsatte. Härvid voro hans åhörare så vana, att de endast betraktade saken såsom en längre paus, hvilken ingalunda förminskade den tillgifvenhet, han med rätta af dem åtnjöt.

He is said to be a very peaceful, quiet and unpretentious person. Toward the common people he was so helpful and service minded that he often used the evenings thereto, from which followed that nature took its course that he even sometimes fell asleep at the pulpet, without, however, loosing the thread in his discourse, which he after a few minutes interruption took up, where he had left off. His listeners were so used to this, that they only considered it to be a longer pause, which in no way lessened the affection they had for him.
