Notes
General:
"1824.
Rev. S. G. Atkins was the preacher in charge [at Wellfleet] in 1824. This was his third year in the ministry, and his health was very poor ; yet his labors were a blessing to the disciples of Jesus. He was so anxious to do the people good, that in preaching he seemed sometimes to completely exhaust his strength. Though naturally very diffident, by his exemplary life and his great love for God and men he endeared himself to all who knew him. This was a year when many removed to Boston and other cities; and thus the membership of the church was considerably reduced. It has been a great embarrassment all through the history of this church, that so many of the members have removed because of the limited means of support in Wellfleet.
Brother Atkins's next appointment was Dorchester ; and it was his last. Shortly after Conference, he was compelled to retire from his work, with the thought that he must soon " go home." During the months in which his life was wasting in consumption, he was fully resigned to the will of God ; and when death came, Feb. 27, 1826, to die was gain." 37
