Wesleyan Methodist Magazine 1850:-
Feb 5th. – At Waddington Grange, near Lincoln, Mr. Digory Joll, in the eightieth year of his age. He had been a member of the Wesleyan Society sixty-three years, and for more than half a century a Preacher. Some of his earlier years were spent in our ministry; and, on retiring he became a Local Preacher, and so continued to the end of life. He was, throughout, a man of great Christian simplicity, of unblemished reputation, unbending Integrity, and unvarying attachment to Connexional principles. For some months past his long-cherished spirituality of mind had visibly increased: and his family saw the man of God ripening for the heavenly rest. Though he resided at some distance from the chapel, the feebleness of age was not suffered to detain him from his wonted place there. On the Sabbath preceding his death he went, as usual, to listen to the preached word ; and remained after the general, taking active part in the prayer-meeting which followed. The next evening (Monday) found him again in his accustomed place. This was the last season of public devotion. The following morning he arose, apparently in as good health as he had known for some years. The morning-meal had ended, and the duties of family devotion were commenced. He sat listening, with deep interest, while a member of this family read the word of God; and in an instant was seized, and ceased to breathe. He " walked with God; and he was not, for God took him."

Deceased, who had reached the ripe age of 75 years, bad been for great number of years and up to his death a Wesleyan minister, although for the past year he was on the supernumerary list and had been confined for some months to the house through affliction. The deceased being member of the Wesleyan body, it was the wish of his friends that their superintendent minister should conduct a portion of the burial service. but not the whole. The matter was mentioned to the vicar, and he willingly consented to what they desired, and on Monday Afternoon the funeral procession, which was attended by goodly number of Wesleyans, halted at the Wesleyan, Chapel, where a portion of the burial service was conducted by the Rev. G. Butcher. On leaving there and arriving the Trinity Church gate, the Vicar met the corpse and commenced to read the other portion of the service, and at the grave a hymn was given out by Mr. Butcher, “Come let us join our friends above," in which the Vicar joined.
