123 were fruitless : Samuel set off — obtained an in- terview with the gentleman — was courteously received — and after naming the object of his mission, the circumstances in which the trus- tees would be placed, and the nature of the security, was told that the money was at his service at any hour. Samuel returned de- lighted, and it is doubtful, whether any man besides himself would have obtained relief from the same source. Mr. R. Had given all up in despair. Samuel Hick was a man who would ...not solicit charities from others, in order to save himself, or even a loan, which he would not have cheerfully advanced, provided he had the amount in his possession. He gave to the extent of his ability, and might even be asso- ciated with those of the Corinthians who, " be- yond their power, were willing of themselves" to impart gifts to others. Many interesting in- stances of liberality might be selected from different periods of his personal history, and here concentrated. As specimens of others which must henceforth remain curtained from earthly gaze, the following charities, without attending to any chronological arrangement, will tend to illustrate one of the more important traits in his character.
