The History of Germain Street Baptist Church, St. John, N.B., for its first one hundred years, 1810-1910

by Thomas D. Denham

REV. FREDERICK MILES.

Rev. Frederick Miles, who had been educated at King’s College, Windsor, was ordained in 1828 and became the seventh pastor. Numbers of persons were added to the Church through the faithful labors of Mr. Miles. During his pastorate of three years, fifty were received by baptism. In the autumn of 1830, Mr. Miles resigned for the purpose of completing his theological course at Newton.

After the retirement of Rev. Mr. Miles, the Rev. Samuel Bancroft supplied the pulpit for a time with much acceptance, and several converts were added during his short term of service.
