A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Delivered in the early part of 1867 before several audiences in the North of England, where the lecturer was received with a cordiality and hospitality of which he will always, and wherever he may be, retain a grateful remembrance. The lecturer was not actuated by any of the somewhat ambitious and eccentric motives ascribed to him at the time. Least of all was he seeking a worthier or a kinder audience than his Oxford pupils, the memory of his intercourse with whom is marred by the sense of his own shortcomings alone. His sole object was the collection of a sum of money, of which he stood in need, in order to enable him more worthily and effectively to support a cause which to him, and those whom he most reveres, appeared to be that of legal order, humanity, and justice.
