       Rev. Samuel whiting was born at Boston, but later identified with King's Lynn, Norfolk, then Lynn, Massachusetts. . .nor is there anything in St. Margarets to mark the ministry of the Rev. Samuel Whiting, come across the Wash (?) from his native Boston to hold forth in this parish church of cathedral proportions, without cathedral beauty.  'They' as American pilgrims seem to be universally styled, do not come to King's Lynn.  Yet the Rev. Samuel was another of those spiritual shepherds who led a portion of his flock westward.
