William Hale White was a British writer and civil servant who became widely recognized under the pseudonym Mark Rutherford, a choice often linked to a reserved nature that kept personal visibility to a minimum. Born in Bedford in 1831, he was educated at Bedford Modern School and later at New College London, experiences that contributed to his developing intellectual interests and his awareness of social and religious issues. His career in public service provided stability while allowing him to cultivate a literary life shaped by careful observation and reflective thought. He edited notable works such as the collection of Coleridges poems, demonstrating a commitment to the study and preservation of literary texts. His writing often explored questions of belief, personal integrity, and the pressures of societal expectations, drawing on his own encounters with institutional structures and private introspection. He also balanced family life, raising a child while pursuing a thoughtful and deliberate approach to authorship. His death in Groombridge in 1913 marked the conclusion of a life characterized by quiet dedication to letters, disciplined study, and an enduring interest in the complexities of human conviction and experience.

Sunday, however, was not happy. I was taken to a religious service, morning and evening, and understood nothing. The evening was particularly trying. The windows of the meeting-house streamed inside with condensed breath, and the air we took into our lungs was poisonous. Almost every Sunday some woman was carried out fainting. Do what I could it was impossible to keep awake. When I was quite little I was made to stand on the seat, a spectacle, with other children in the like case, to the whole congregation, and I often nearly fell down, overcome with drowsiness.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
