He graduated at Heidelberg. He was a man of profound erudition -of more than ordinary powers of mind - a finished scholar, as is evident from testimony born him by the Rev. Jedediah Andrews. In a letter dated Philadelphia, 10 mo., (Oct.) 14th, 1730, "There is," says Andrews, "lately come over a Palatine candidate of the ministry, who, having applied to us at the synod for ordination, 'tis left to Tenant, Andrews and Boyd to do it. He is an extraordinary person for sense and learning. We gave him a question to discuss about Justification, and he answered it, in a whole sheet of paper, in a very notable manner. His name is John Peter Muller, and speaks Latin as readily as we do our natural tongue." In 1735, he connected himself with the Siebentagers, of Ephrata. He died Sept. 25, 1796. His remains rest at Ephrata, Lancaster Co, Pa. - Rupp's His. Lan Co., pg . 229.
