Hurrell Froude: Memoranda and Comments
Guiney, Louise Imogen
Froude, Richard Hurrell, 1803-1836
[241] ‘_Que se passa-t-il entre eux? Wiseman ne l’a jamais
révélé._’ _Idem_, p. 104. M. Thureau-Dangin’s treatment of
Froude throughout is exquisite and just, though he contrives
to miss a point or two.
[242] Newman warns us in the Preface to _Loss and Gain_
against actual identifications of his scenes and characters;
and the warning is just, because there is no warrant for the
identifications. But reading between the lines is
particularly profitable with every page of Newman’s,
dictated by an almost unexampled deliberation and
sensitiveness. Reding (for one instance out of many),
quitting his beautiful and beloved Oxford, goes early in the
morning to kiss the willows along the Water-walks good-bye.
It is almost impossible that the man who thinks such a thing
should not also be the man who has done it.
[243] ‘Things,’ one is left to infer, which depended more or
less on the proximity of the Bodleian, and implied something
in the way of historical fiction.
[244] In vol. vii., 1835. The article for June, pp. 662-668,
is Letter No. xii. in _The Church of the Fathers_, and
consists of a little essay on S. Augustine, with excerpts
from his treatises and private correspondence on the subject
of the religious life.
[245] The Statutes excluding married Fellows being still in
force.
[246] Years after this was written, late in the seventies,
he must have passed near it, going to visit his
brother-in-law, the Rev. Thomas Mozley, at Plymtree.
[247] _I.e._, haranguing against ‘Romanism.’
[248] James Shergold Boone, 1799-1859, an Oxonian, then
editor of _The British Critic_.
[249] Copleston.
[250] The Rev. Charles Portates Golightly, 1807-1885, M.A.,
Oriel: King of the ‘Peculiars.’
[251] The Rev. Benjamin Harrison, 1808-1887, M.A.,
Christchurch, afterwards Archdeacon of Maidstone and Canon
of Canterbury.
[252] Probably Thomas Mozley, newly appointed Junior
Treasurer of Oriel.
[253] The Rev. Robert Francis Wilson, M.A., Oriel, was
appointed Mr. Keble’s Curate in 1835, and became his
lifelong friend.
[254] In the review of Blanco White’s _Observations on
Heresy and Orthodoxy_.
[255] The Rev. John Richard Bogue, a Cambridge graduate,
then, or later, Curate of Cornworthy, towards Dartmouth.
[256] _Life of Edward Bouverie Pusey_, by Henry Parry
Liddon, D.D., etc. London: Longmans, 1893, i., 359.
[257] John Mozley and Jemima Newman were married on April
28, 1836. Thomas Mozley’s first wife was Harriet Newman,
married to him in September of the same year. Not only the
Mozleys of the Tractarian group, but two of the Wilberforces
(Samuel and Henry), and the two Kebles, married sisters.
