REV. GEO. WRIGHT HODGSON.

King's College in the Early sixties—By J. Alien duck,

(King’s College Record )

Had the question been propornded to the men im residence at the Cuil ge during any part of the period to which these papers relate—‘“ Who is the most striking personage amongst von?’ | think that, with scarcely a dissenting voice, they would have answered, “Hoagron.” [ have litde doubt that, today, the survivors. of the same body cf residents would generally confirm their previous opinion, avd readily @armit that, from the time indicated until his death, Hodgson was the most ais- tinguished representative of King’s. Persovally, I bave no hesitaticn in athriming that among the j the dead and living, | never encountered anyone who extibued so many admirabie aud attractive qualities ax Hodgson. There are clever men who are not good, good men who are not wise, and those who may be good, wise and clever, but yet are not pleasing. Ia the cwe of Hodg-on, however, there was a very re- marsable union of great uatural aud acquired intellectual powers, sanctified common sense, as a rare qnality has been, no: inaptiy, cailed, aud must winning con- versation aud demeanour. Burke, wriung of a higbly-prized jady friend, describes her as being “like the soft, quiet green oa

which the soal loves to repose.” The imagery is peculiarly rich, and

brings betore one the picture of a shecp lying on a pleasant grassy hillside; it 1s perbaps a Jittle extravagant, but it is so uearly suitable that 1 can not but remem-— ber it when thinking of Hodgson In this cause, the trope is eadly insufficient for descriptive purposes, inasmuch as ‘t gives amecely parual idea of his ‘helpfuiness, which in other respects, was like that of the pioneer iu removing obstructious, or of the pbysiciar in providing remedies for disease. His religivn was so beautitul and his sincerity so evident, that the least thoughtful of those about bim could not fail w adanire, even if they did not imitate him. His reveretcé was. thet of one in whore ears the trisagion was ever sounding his religious enthusiasm never seemed tu fail. biographies are rarely satisfactory bat his life, iv the hands of a competent writer, could not be otherwise than juter— esting, and no ove who kuew bim when a man, could be iacurious as to whether his mavy persoval attractions were mainly

natural or acquired, and as to what he was

like in earty anfavey and boyhood. Whether wm conversation, or debate, or in the pulpit, he pleased the fancy, stimu - jated the rea-oning faculties, or in some way supplied the intellectual wants of others. He often resorted to irony and sarcasm, but with euch admirable judg- ment aud in so impersonal a manner that le thereby gave no cause for offeuce, and

' althongh emphatically gn° amiable mau, ‘his annability was not, as itis in many, av

alniost purely negative quality. His mental gifts and intellectual wcquirements were such as would have enablet him to bave excelled in any profession or walk ip life in which he could have exercised the powers of persuasion or bis personal mag- netiem. Hecertainly distingui-hed him- self as a clergyman, but it may be safely stated that as a legislator,a lawyer or a& soldier, he would have been @ conspicuous Although a very rapid speaker

success. when he spose extempore, which was his almost invariable custom, his thoughts were so well ar-

ranged and his language was so appro- priute, that it required no effort to toilow nis reasoving from premises to conc)usion. A vatural logician, he iutuitively grasped the truly importan!, thought not always most salient, poiatsin an argument, aud although be occasionally iuduiged in clever sophistry, it was only to illustrate its feebleuess and its incapacity to per-

-euade an honest, earnest and capable

seeker after truth. He was unquestion— ably the most powerful debater of al] the members of the Quinctilian Club of my time, although there were several close competitors tor leadership in that Society, On Jeavirg College be assumed the charge of a comparatively emall congregation in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, bat although removed from populous centres, his influence in the Church in the Maritime Provinces was always considerable, especially among the clergy who bad known him in Wind- sor.

Nor was his attention confined :o purely ecclesiastical matters. He evinced a keen interest in the subject of general education, in all movements tending to promote eocial culture, and in the higher politics. On more than one occasion he travelled frova his Island home, regardless of dis- tance and extreme persona: discomfort, in m idwinter, to Jecture betore the members of the Saint John Mechanics’ Institute, al ways selecting as a topic something ca!- culated to elevate the mind or preperly direct the energiés of those who listened to him. The la-t-of these Jectures, ** The Canadian Element in the Future of Ameri- ' ca,” was detivered on the 8th of December, 1880. Although a streauous upholder of e lerical rights and powers, vhere was little a bout his dress or general appearance to i ndicate priestly assumption, Lremember, in this connection, an incident. which oc- curred at the ciose of one of these lectures, | when ove lady asked another whether she knew to what religious body the lecturer belonged, and received the reply, * Why, | of course, be is a Presbyterian.”
