William Price

William Price (1757-94) was the Baptist minister at Ebenezer Chapel, the Second Church, Leeds, and was a close friend of Edward Parsons (see his entry above).  Parsons preached his funeral sermon.  Price was trained at Bristol Academy from 1777-80, after which he came to Leeds and remained there until his death.  He was a moderate Calvinist, and very evangelical.  See obituary notice in Rippon’s Register, vol. 2 (1794-97), 112-15.
