Some of his children inherited his love of reading, and as he put little restraint upon it, and there were circulating libraries within reach, (not to say that his own library contained a complete collection of the classical English novels of that day, imported by him, ) there were always novels lying about the house ; and none, I think, ever went out of the house without his trying them. Of some, a few pages suf ficed; of others, he would read more or all, but always rapidly. And in the course... of an evening many such vol umes would be despatched. Of poetry he did not, I believe, read much ; but he was tolerably familiar with the older English poets. His favor ite was Pope ; by which I mean only that he quoted him 284 MEMOIR OF more freely, and gave him more praise, than any other. One of my sisters, who is a few years older than I am, remembers his repeating the whole of Pope's Messiah, one evening, to his children. If present, I was too young to notice it sufficiently to remember the occurrence.
