an English Congregational minister, was born at Dulcot in 1827. Early in life he experienced a thorough consecration to God, and was diligent in preparation for the ministry. Mr. Webb graduated at the Western College, and settled at Castle Cary in 1851. He removed to Shepton-Mallet in 1858, and settled at Lewis in 1864. The Church and congregation-I greatly increased under his administration. Mr. Webb's reading was extensive among the best writers and thinkers of the day and his preaching, though simple, was combined with such intelligence that he attracted the thoughtful Christians, and always attached them to his ministry. He died Nov. 7, 1867. See (Lond.) Cong. Year-book, 1868, p. 301.
