Présentation de l'éditeur

New Year s Day, 1906, Cambridge lost one of its principal teachers, and the University and Town one of their most prominent members and citizens, when Frederick Watson passed away. His life since he went up to Cambridge forty years ago had revolved round two centres, the cause of the Church of Christ in parochial work and in the teaching of Theology. By these he sought to promote the glory of God and the increase of learning and virtue with a definiteness that gave a marked consistency to a strenuous and vigorous life. Watson was born in the city of York in 1844, and went to the Cathedral School, St. Peter s College as it is officially designated. His attention was directed principally to Mathematics, and he gained an open Exhibition at St. John s, which was exchanged next year for a Foundation Scholarship. In his undergraduate days he lived the life of a student, making his Tripos and his religious duties the main business for which he came up. His Tripos was that of 1868, in which he was placed twelfth. It was a year productive of notable men, no less than four of our Judges being in that Tripos :M oulton (S enior Wrangler), Buckley, Sutton, and Barnes, besides Kennedy, who was Senior Classic.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
