Excerpt from The Life and Times of Henry Cooke, D.D., LL. D., President of Assembly's College, BelfastDr. Cooke's boyhood was passed amid the exciting scenes of the Irish Rebellion, and in one of the most disturbed districts of the country. He was led, at an early age, to regard with feelings of horror those wild revolutionary sentiments which had deluged France in blood, and which were, before his own eyes, convulsing his native land. He was then taught to connect purity of religious principles, both in the individual and in the community, with respect for law and order, and with the development of true national greatness. Time con firmed his early convictions, and he held them with unwavering fidelity, and acted upon them with conscientious devotion, to the close of a long life.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
