John Ross MacDuff (1818-1895) was born May 23, 1818, at Bonhard, near Perth, Scotland. After studying at the University of Edinburgh, he became in 1842 parish minister of Kettins, Forfarshire; in 1849 of St. Madoes, Perthshire; and in 1855 of Sandyford, Glasgow. He received the Doctor of Divinity degree from the University of Glasgow in 1862, and about the same time also from the University of New York. He retired from pastoral work in 1871, and thereafter lived at Chislehurst, Kent, for the purpose of focusing entirely on writing. MacDuff was a prolific author of devotional works, as well as a composer of hymns. Several of his writings are still in circulation.
