Mar. 10, 1830 North Carolina Journal DIED, on Thursday night last, at Raleigh, the RIGHT REVEREND JOHN S. RAVENSCROFT, D.D., Bishop of the Diocese of North Carolina. In the death of this good and great man, the cause of pure and undefiled religion has lost an able and zealous advocate -- the Episcopal Church of North Carolina has lost its brightest ornament, its pious and venerated head -- society has lost its friend, its guide, its instructor; and the tongue of the most eloquent preacher of the day is laid low to dust.
