So again of Colonel Evans, who, after losing afine estate long held out to his hopes, five times over put himself atthe head of _forlorn hopes_. Such cases are memorable, and wereconspicuous at the time, from the lustre of wealth and high connectionswhich surrounded the parties; but many thousand others, in which thesacrifices of personal ease were less noticeable from their narrowerscale of splendor, had equal merit for the cheerfulness with whichthose sacrifices were made. [Footnote: History ...of the Greek Revolution, by Thomas Gordon. ] Here, again, in the person of the author before us, we have another instance of noble and disinterested heroism, which, from the magnitude of the sacrifices that it involved, must place himin the same class as the Mellishes and the Lees.

Inheriting from him a good estate in Aberdeenshire, and one moreconsiderable in Jamaica, he found himself, at the close of a longminority, in the possession of a commanding fortune.
