Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memorials of Rev. Carstairs Douglas: Missionary of the Presbyterian Church of England at Amoy, China, 1877 Carstairs Douglas was born at Kilbarchan Manse, Renfrewshire, upon the 27th December, 1830, the youngest of a large family; another son being the Rev. George C. M. Douglas, D.D., Principal of the Free Church (Divinity) College, Glasgow, and all the other survivors being workers in the Church. Their father, the Rev. Robert Douglas, who passed a long and useful life as minister of that parish, was a man of learning as multifarious and extensive as his library, which not only filled two rooms appropriated to it, but overflowed the whole house. His thoughtful conversation constantly and plesantly distilled his knowledge into the minds of those around him, especially varied knowledge and ripe conclusions in quaint, interesting, and brief remarks which were never forgotten. He educated his sons at home during their younger years, and in this he was efficiently aided by his good and wise wife.
