Christopher Schultz, Jr., was a grandson of the Rev. Christopher Schultz, and lived in Hereford, Berks Co., Pa., on the fine farm belonging to the estate of his son, Thomas, which he managed very successfully. He was a minister of the Society of the Schwenkfelders, and until his death continued in the ministry. He always drew crowded audiences wherever he preached, whether in his own Society or when occupying the pulpit of some neighboring denomination, which was very frequently the case. His fine personal appearance and great fluency of speech always commanded the attention of his audience, accompanied as it was with the most fervent piety. The social qualities of his well-stored mind were of the highest order, tempered as it was by a true Christian spirit; he always commanded the respect of those with whom he came in contact. :
