Chalmers. " Daughter of the late Rev. Dr. Chalmers. In consideration
of his piety, eloquence, and learning. 25Z."
Thomas Chalmers, D.D., 1780-1847, was the sixth of fourteen children. At the parish school was " one of the idlest, strongest, merriest, and most generous-hearted boys." Pure geometry had a strong attraction for him from childhood, but he desired to be a minister of the Gospel, and wrote the article on ' Christianity ' for ' The Edinburgh Encyclopaedia.' He preached in London with as great an effect as in Glasgow. Wilberforce wrote in his diary : " All the world wild about Chalmers " (' D.N.B.,' vol. ix.).
