King's College, Cambridge. Ordained deacon and priest by Bishop Horsley,

he officiated at St. James's, Westminster, and went out to St. Petersburg

as chaplain to the Embassy. Subsequently he either threw off his gown or

had it taken from him, and became a blacksmith and coach-spring maker in

Norfolk Street, Lynn. He was apprehended, tried, and transported for

stealing iron, the property of Mr. Bottomley, of South Gates, in that

town. At the expiration of his term of transportation he returned to

Lynn, made a settlement in the town, and was for several years an inmate

of the Workhouse. He died at the advanced age of 78 years.

William Ollett, "who obtained justly-deserved eminence as a carver of

wood for ecclesiastical purposes, and whose skill was called into

requisition in most of the cathedrals of this kingdom."
