WILLIAM BRBNDOK AMD SON, LTD. PRINTERS, PLYMOUTH Studies in Arcady : And other Essays from a Country Parsonage By R. L. GALES Two vols. Crown Svo. 5/. Net each.
" A country parson, Mr. Gales really lives among the poor. Through patience and tact he has come to understand these strangers, to know the workings of their minds and trace the effect of their material conditions. If he laughs at them, he loves them ; if he speaks plainly of their faults, he does not count among them 'ingratitude' for ...favours and advice not asked. In other words, he is the friend and the learner, not the patron ; and we believe his book to contain more good sense and independent thinking on a difficult subject than is often found. . . .
"He is a delightful writer, full of good stories, quaint lore, and love of language, and inspired with a gentle humour and a kindly brooding temper which savour of a lost age. His essays on names, on Christian legends and usages, on folklore and other subjects, show him a linguist and a scholar.
