And for the first part of its course, it was concentrated at Oxford. It was the direct result of the searchings of heart and the communings for seven years, from 1826 to 1833, of the three men who have been the subject of this chapter. FOOTNOTES: [14] Isaac Williams's MS. Memoir. [15] _Rem._ i. 232, 233. In 1828, Newman had preferred Hawkins to Keble, for Provost. [16] _Apol._ p. 84. [17] _Remains_, i. 438; _Apol._ p. 77. "Do you know the story of the murderer who had done one good thing in his life? Well, if I was asked what good deed I have ever done, I should say I had brought Keble and Newman to understand each other." CHAPTER III[18] RICHARD HURRELL FROUDE |
