_Memoirs of Stevens_ by the late Sir James Allan Park have been published,
and are well worth reading; but this Stevens was not George Steevens, the
Shakespearian commentator, but William, Treasurer of Queen Anne's Bounty,
one of the most meek and humble minded of men.
"He was inferior to none in profound knowledge, and steady practice of
the doctrines and discipline of the Church of England; austere to
himself alone, charitable and indulgent towards others, he attracted
the young by the cheerfulness of his temper, and the old by the
sanctity of his life."
MISS BOCKETT should not confound such a holy character with George
Steevens.
