opposition to that of his friend, Principal
Rule, who was accustomed to sit late into
the night, he was styled "the Morning
Star," and on hearing of Rule's death (only
twenty-six days before his own), he quaintly
observed, " the Evening Star has now gone
down, and the Morning Star will soon dis-
appear." He marr. (1) Rose (buried 4th
