IRVING, David, LL.D., biographer and libra- rian, Avas born in the village of Langholm, Dum- fries-shire, December 5, 1778. He received his early education in the Grammar school of his native place under a Mr. Telfer. He afterwards attended, for Latin and Greek, a Mr. Little, who, though deprived of sight, was an excel- lent scholar, and remarkable for grounding his pupils thoroughly in a knowledge of the classics.
In 1796, being then in his 18th year, he went to !;he university of Ediuhnrgh, w...here he continued till 1803. In the Greek class he distinguished him- self so much as to attract the particular notice of Mr, Dalzell, the then professor in that chair (see vol. ii., p. 17, for a memoir of him). In 1799 he published at Glasgow a short life of Fergusson the poet, dedicated to Dr. Robert Anderson, editor and biographer of the British Poets, (for a memoir of whom see vol. i., p. 133,) to whom he brought a let- ter of introduction on his first arrival in Edinburgh.
In 1801 Mr. Irving took the degiee of M.A., and the same year he issued another little volume, entitled 'Lives of Scottish Authors, viz., Fergusson, Falconer, and Russell.' To this he was encour- aged by Professor Dalzell, to whom it was dedi- cated, and who had assisted him in collecting materials for the two latter biograpiiics.
