The Life And Death Of John Kemp
Death. Mr. John Kemp, Pastor of "Ebenezer" chapel, Bounds Cross, Biddenden, entered into his eternal rest, on October 22,1932, aged 82 years. During the painful affliction which confined him to his bed for about 13 months, he was kept very patient, and often spoke with tender appreciation of the constant and devoted nursing of his beloved wife. In regard to spiritual things, he did not speak for the sake of talking; and some of his friends were surprised he said so little, but when he did speak it was with emphasis and feeling.
