Excerpt from The Cambridge "Apostles" I have not attempted in this book to write a complete or collective history of the Cambridge Apostles. Such a work might prove of interest to individuals but hardly to the world at large. Nor have I pre sumed to pick out from the register of that distin guished band the twelve indisputably the most bril liant and renowned. Such would be an invidious and pretentious task, and in any case beyond my powers. All I have tried to do is to give a few sketches of such of the Apostles as were friends of the late William Henry Brookfield, of Whom accordingly I have family traditions and literary records. I was pleased and flattered to find, after having made my selection, that it tallied with the list of illustrious Apostles men tioned by the late Lord Houghton on the occasion of the opening of the new Cambridge Union in 1866.
