Excerpt from The Life and Letters of John Angell James: Including an Unfinished Autobiography The Autobiographical Fragment found among the papers of the late J ohn angell james was commenced in the autumn of 1858, and laid aside before the end of the year. Let the reader imagine himself in a square room of moderate dimensions, comfort-ably furnished but without ostentation, a blazing fire on the hearth, the dark heavy curtains drawn, and candles lit for an evening's work. The wall on your left is covered with engravings of well-known ministers: you will recognise at once the majestic form and the ardent gaze of dr-m'all, the most brilliant of modern preachers; the quaint, kindly countenance of William Jay; the rugged face of Chalmers; and the robust form and ample brow of Robert Hall, who in genius and scholarship, vigour of judgment and splendour of imagination, surpassed them all. Facing you are two large Oil-paintings, one on each side of the fire-place; that on the right is an early portrait of Mr James, the other, of his second wife, who has been dead now for seventeen years. Two or three other faces which are dear to the old man writing at the table, look down Upon him from above the mantel piece and on a bracket fastened to the opposite wall stands the bust of his tutor, Dr Bogue.
