Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****. Excerpt from The Miscellaneous Works of the Rev. Robert Hall: With Memoir by Olinthus Gregory, LL. D., F. R. A.S., And a Critical Estimate of His Character and Writings At about six years of age he was placed, as a day-scholar, under the charge of a Mr. Simmons, of Wigston, a village about four miles from Arnsby. At first, he walked to school in the mornings and home again in the evenings. But the severe pain in his back, from which he suffered so much through life, had even then begun to distress him; so that he was often obliged to lie down upon the road, and sometimes his brother J ohn and his other schoolfellows carried him, in turn, he repaying them during their labour by relating some amusing story, or detailing some of the interesting results of his reading. On his father s ascertaining his inability to walk so far daily, he took lodgings for him and his brother at the house of a friend in the village: after this arrangement was made they went to Wigston on the Monday mornings, and te turned to Arnsby on the Saturday afternoons. The course of instruction at Mr. Simmons s school was not very extensive and Robert was not likely to restrict himself as a student to its limits. On starting from home on the Monday, it was his practice to take with him two or three books from his father s library, that he might read them in the intervals between the school hours. The books he se lected were not those of mere amusement, but such as required deep and serious thought. The works of J onathan Edwards, for example, were among his favourites; and it is an asoer tained fact, that before he was nine years of age, he had pe rased and reperused, with intense interest, the treatises of that profound and extraordinary thinker, on the Afi ections, and on the Will. About the same time he read, with a like interest, Butler s Analogy. He used to ascribe his early predilection for this class of studies, in great measure, to his intimate association, in mere childhood, with a tailor, one of his father s congregation, a very shrewd, well-informed man, and an acute metaphysician. Before he was ten years old, he had written many essays, principally on religious sub jects; and often invited his brother and sisters to hear him preach. About this time, too, in one of those anticipatory distributions of a father s property, which I apprehend are not unusual with boys, he proposed that his brother should have the cows, sheep, and pigs, on their father s death, and leai e him al] the books. These juvenile dividers of the inheritance seem to have overlooked their sisters; unless, indeed, they assigned them the furniture. The incident, how ever, is mentioned simply to show what it was that Robert even then most prized. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
