Excerpt from The Eclectic Magazine of Foreign Literature, Science, and Art: September to December, 1844 Like all men of that cast of mind, his humor was gay and festive. Among the barges which floated on a summer evening by the villa of Pope, and the chateau of Horace Walpole, none was more constant or more joyous than that in which Gran ville Sharpe's harp or kettle-drum sustained the flute of one brother, the hautboy of an other, and the melodious voices of their sisters. It was a concord of sweet sounds, typical, as it might seem, of the fraternal harmony which blessed their dwelling on the banks of that noble river. Much hon est mirth gladdened that affectionate circle, and brother Granville's pencil could pro duce very passable caricatures when he laid aside his harp, fashioned, as be main tained, in exact imitation of that of the son of Jesse. To complete the resemblance, it was his delight, at the break of day, to sing to it one of the songs of Zion in his chamber - raised by many an intervening staircase far above the Temple gardens, where young students of those times would often pause in their morning stroll, to lis ten to the not unpleasing cadence, though the voice was broken by age, and the lan guage was to them an unknown tongue.
