William Bruce (minister)
William Bruce (1757–1841) was an Irish Presbyterian minister and educator.
==Early life==
The second son of Samuel Bruce, Presbyterian minister and grandson of Michael Bruce, of Wood Street, Dublin, and Rose Rainey of Magherafelt, County Londonderry, he was born in Dublin on 30 July 1757. He entered Trinity College, Dublin, in 1771. In 1775 he obtained a scholarship, and graduated A.B., supporting himself by private tuition. In 1776 he went to Glasgow for a session, and in 1777 to Warrington Academy for two years.
Bruce's first settlement was at Lisburn, and he was ordained on 4 November 1779 by the Bangor presbytery. His father's old congregation at Strand Street, Dublin, then called him on 24 March 1782 as colleague to John Moody, D.D., on the death of Thomas Plunket. He took part in the volunteer movement of 1782, serving in the ranks, but declined a command. At the national convention which met in November 1783, in the Rotunda at Dublin, he sat as delegate for Carrickfergus, and was the last surviving member of this convention. In 1786 he received the degree of D.D. from Glasgow University. His Dublin congregation increased when on 25 or 29 March 1787, the Cooke Street congregation, with its ex-minister, William Dunne, D.D., joined it.〔
