Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Brief Sketch of the Life and Work: Of the Rev. Robert Campbell, D.D., Minister of St. Gabriel Church, Montreal
Following graduation, the problem of providing means for further study presented itself, as to most young men, and he set himself to teaching, for such a thing as students preach ing was unheard of in those days. He first taught a school at Ancaster, near Hamilton, Ont, for six months, when he was appointed Head Master of Queen's College Preparatory School, at the age of twenty one years. Here his chief work was to prepare candidates for matriculation, and it was a congenial task to teach, and inspire with high ideals, youths gathered from all parts of the Dominion. He held this posi tion for four years, studying theology in the meantime. He was duly licensed to preach by the Presbytery of Bathurst, in 1860, and, resigning his post forthwith, he went to Scot land, where he visited the Universities, attending lectures, afterward travelling in Great Britain and on the Continent.
