Excerpt from Notes of Thought IT has been thought desirable to prefix to these Noces of Thought a brief Memoir of their author. It is an advantage to the readers of any book, and especially of a book like this, to have some personal knowledge of the man whose literary utterances they are invited to study.

N either his powers nor his achievements were such as to place him in the rank of those who have exerted a marked influence on their generation, nor did his career bring him into any special contact with great affairs or illustrious persons; but he was a man whose work in life had a touch of originality and distinction about it not unworthy of notice, and whose character as a whole was of a noble and attractive quality, which ought to lend to these memorial pages something of its own charm.
