Augustus William Hare

Augustus William Hare (November 17, 1792 - January 22, 1834), was the son of Francis Hare-Naylor, who married a cousin of the famous Duchess of Devonshire, and was the authorof a history of Germany. He was sent by the widow of Sir W. Jones, whose godson he was, to Winchester, and New College, Oxford, in the latter of which he was for some time a tutor. Entering the Church he became incumbent of the rural parish of Alton Barnes where, leading an absolutely unselfish life, he was the father and friend of his parishioners. In addition to writing in conjunction with his brother Julius, "Guesses at Truth", a work containing short essays on multifarious subjects, which attracted much attention, he left two volumes of sermons.
