In
my time there have been two ministers in that parish. Of the first
I have a special reason to speak well, even had there been any to
think ill. The second I have often met in private and long (in the
due phrase) "sat under" in his church, and neither here nor there
have I heard an unkind or ugly word upon his lips. The preacher of
the text had thus no original in that particular parish; but when I
was a boy he might have been observed in many others; he was then
(like the schoolmaster) abroad; and by recent advices, it would
seem he has not yet entirely disappeared.
