He studied four years at Homerton Academy, and was ordained pastor at Ringwood in September, 1808, where he labored twenty-one years, and then removed to Bedminster. He relinquished his charge in 1856, and retired to Tunbridge Wells, where he died, Jan. 15, 1875. Mr. Bishop was a good scholar, and in the prime of life a vigorous preacher. He was a devoted Christian and a resolute Nonconformist. He published, Christian Memorials of the 19th Century: — The Beloved Disciple; and some separate sermons. See (Lond.) Cong.
