James Hamilton, Strabane [agent] to the Marquis of Abercorn, Baronscourt:
Poor old Billy Fleming, your Lordship’s tenant, and brother to Paddy, died yesterday most suddenly. He was in perfect health half an hour before his death. So lately as Saturday last I was chatting and joking with him, when he was to all appearances as well as he had been for years. He was an honest hearty well meaning man
RETURNS OF PROTESTANT DISSENTERS IN STRABANE TOWN
AND NEIGHBOURHOOD, CO. TYRONE, 1775
Transcribed, compiled and submitted by Len Swindley, Melbourne, Australia

Protestant Dissenters (Presbyterians) were barred from holding public office because of their beliefs. Presbyterian congregations across Ireland petitioned the parliament in Dublin for repeal of the Test Act which required all office holders, i.e. magistrates, burgesses etc. to be communicant members of the Established Church. Clearly, not all members of the Presbyterian congregation in Strabane signed: some may have been beholden to a landlord belonging to the Established Church.
Very few such petitions have survived.
The petition is headed up by the Rev. William Crawford, minister of Strabane Congregation 1776-1798.

On Friday last, Patrick Fleming, Esq. of this town, in the 85th year of his age. During his protracted life, he maintained a character of unimpeachable integrity, and his benevolence and charity were even more conspicuous than his uprightness. Few have lived more respected, and few have died more regretted.
30 November 1824
On Tuesday morning the 23d inst. in the 68th year of his age, Wm. Fleming sen. Esq. one of the Burgesses of this Corporation. Newspaper panegyric has so long been prostituted to the dressing out of ambiguous merit in the tinsel phrase of rhetoric, that it no longer gives any assurance of the worth of the deceased object of its praise. If the reader be desirous to know what Mr. Fleming was, let him ask among his surviving intimates who have experienced his hospitalities, or the numerous poor who daily acknowledged his charities; of the domestics who witnessed his devotions, or the friends who shared his kindness; and if he does not receive an answer capable of exciting a spirit of emulation in every one of the above named virtues, the fault will be in the narrator, and not in him of whom the narration is told
