The Islander, page 2; 29 May 1857 Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada:
THE REV. ALBERT DESBRISAY
The esteemed and honored Minister of the Wesleyan Church, -- fourth son of the late Rev. Theophilus Des Brisay, for many years Rector of this Parish, -- departed this life on Sabbath morning last. -- His numerous friends, not only of his own denomination, but also of other Protestant churches in this Island, and in the adjacent Provinces, will receive the intelligence with deep and unfeigned sorrow. For a period of thirty five years he has maintained the highest reputation, as a devoted Minister of Christ; and, wherever his lot has been cast during that time, has been extensively useful in his Master's service, and has won the esteem and affection of all classes by his amiable disposition, his unaffected piety and his unceasing efforts to do good. He occupied, with much acceptance and usefulness, various stations in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, until compelled by affliction to retire from more active labour in the Church. From the opening of the Academic Institution at Sackville, N.B., until 1854, he sustained therein the responsible office of Governor and Chaplain, the duties of which he discharged with kindness, prudence, fidelity and efficiency, as numerous youth educated in that Establishment and their parents can hear testimony. During his residence in this his native Island for two years past, although unable to minister frequently in the pulpit, he has been assiduously and cheerfully engaged in the discharge of spiritual duties, especially in visitations of the sick and the poor, and other pastoral work; and his pious and earnest labours in this department of ministerial service, in which, notwithstanding his enfeebled health, he took great delight, will be held in grateful remembrance. His last public engagement was on the evening of Monday the 18th instant, in attendance upon the Bible Class of the Young Men's Christian Association, in the prosperity of which he felt the greatest interest.
Upon returning home that night he took a cold which induced inflammation of the lungs, -- from the effects of which his strength of constitution was insufficient to rally, -- and after this short illness, he peacefully departed to his heavenly rest, in the sixty-second year of his age. His memory is enshrined in many a heart, and will long be cherished with affection. The funeral will take place from his late residence this afternoon at four o'clock.
-- Pro.
