Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sermons Robert Smith Candlish was born at Edinburgh on the 23d of March 1806, being the youngest child of James Candlish, a teacher of medicine there. His mother was Jane Smith, one of the six " Mauchline belles " celebrated by Robert Burns, who said of her, " Miss Smith she has wit." His father, whose surname was originally M´Candlish, but who dropped the Celtic prefix when at Glasgow College, was also a friend of the poet. He died very suddenly, a few weeks after his son Robert was born, April 29, 1806; and thereupon his widow with her family, consisting of two sons and two daughters,removed to Glasgow, where they continued to reside for many years. There, accordingly, Robert Candlish spent his early days. He was at first a somewhat delicate and rather timid boy, but soon getting over this, be joined with hearty enjoyment in the games and amusements of his companions. He entered Glasgow College, 10th October 1818, at the early age of twelve; and attended the gown or undergraduate classes for five sessions, during which he gained many prizes, and in due time took the degree of M.A. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
