Description:Excerpt from Samuel Robert Calthrop, L. H. D: The Man; Teacher, Writer and ScientistReferring later to Carlyle, Dr. Calthrop said: There was a time when Carlyle exercised a powerful inﬂuence over me, and no one will ever deny his great genius. Between the thirties and forties I was affected by the vulgar and stupid confusion that existed in England concerning religion and theology. It was just then that I got hold of Carlyle's idea as expressed to Emerson: that common sense controlled the universe from the making of a nutmeg grater to the constitution of the solar system. That thought, once in my mind, has never left it, and it has been of incalculable benefit to me ever since. I was talk ing one day with Milburn, the blind preacher, and he told me of a visit he had once made to Carlyle. The great writer received him well, and when he learned that his blind visitor was a minister he said: 'there was a time when I intended to be a preacher. But I was afraid I was going to say something my congregation would not be lieve, and resolved to shut myself up and have it out. So I went into my room, locked the door, and man, I don't know whether I ate, drank -or slept for several days, but this I do know, when I came out there were two things fixed for life, one was, that I should never be a preacher, and the other, that this d dyspepsia had got hold of me and has never left me.'About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
