Samuel Cole [1]
a Baptist minister, was born in Massachusetts in 1823. He graduated from Waterville College in 1850, and from the theological seminary in Rochester in 1852. He had a vigorous intellect, and took high rank as a scholar. His ordination took place in Belfast, Maine, July 27, 1853. During his short pastorate he gave himself to work with an intensity of devotion rarely excelled. "Humble, studious, and spiritual, success attended his efforts, and a brilliant future opened before him." Prostrated by disease brought on by overwork, he went to his father's house in Beverly Massachusetts, and died there, November 11, 1854. See Watchman and Reflector, December 21, 1854. (J.C.S.)
