THE REV. JOHN IRWIN - It is with feelings of regret that we record to day the death of the Rev. John Irwin, which took place at Nanticoke, Ontario, on the 19th instant. In these feelings we will, doubtless, be joined by many of our readers in this city and elsewhere, who were acquainted with the deceased--more especially by the members of that congregation (St. Luke’s) to whom for many years he ministered. To his family and more intimate friends the news of Mr. Irwin’s death will have been a sad surprise, as he was but a short time ailing, having caught cold during the delivery of a series of lectures or addresses, which resulted in an attack on the lungs. The deceased clergyman was born in the County Tyrone, Ireland, and received his collegiate and theological education at Trinity College, Dublin. Subsequently he held the position of Principal of the College in Ballinasloe. On his first arrival in this country in 1847 he was a pointed assistant minister in Christ Church Cathedral, and served subsequently a incumbent of St. Thomas’s. After the great fire of 1852 he went to Boston, where he did duty, not only as a clergyman, but also as assistant editor of the Christian Witness. He was for a considerable time Rector of St. John’s, P. Q., after resigning the charge of which place he became incumbent of St. Luke's and chaplain to the gaol. He also held an appointment for some time in Port Dover, Ont. During his residence in Montreal he held the appointment of Commissioner on the Protestant Board of School Commissioners. For some years past Mr Irwin was engaged in writing for the religious press of this city and elsewhere. He had a ways the reputation of being an excellent scholar, a ready penman, and skilful controversialist. He was the editor of the Rev Dr Falloon's History of Ireland, to which he wrote an ample and learned introduction. But his chief power was in the pulpit and on the platform. Indeed, in his best days, as a preacher and writer, he had few superiors.  (Montreal Gazette of March 23) Source: The Journal of Education for the Province of Quebec, Volume 18 edited by Pierre Joseph Oliver Chauveau, Henry Hopper Miles, Patrick Delaney, George W.
