He was educated at St. John's College, Cambridge ; obtained a small curacy in the countrj- ; and, upon the death of his father in 1753, withdrew to his jiaternal inheritance in Cheshire, where, owing to his delicate state of health, he lived in retirement until his death in 1790. He be- queathed estates in order to found two divinity scholar- ships in St. John's College, the Hulsean Prize Essay, and to endow the offices of " Christian Advocate" and " Chris- tian Preacher" in the University of Cambridge. The duties of the " Christian Preacher," or Hulsean Lectur- er, according to this appointment, were to deUvcr and print twenty sermons every year, either upon the evi- dences of Christianity, or the difliciflties of Holy Scrip- ture. The funds being inadequate, the lectures were not commenced until 1820, and in 1830 the number of sermons to be delivered in a year was reduced tij eight. In 1860 the oflice of "Christian Advocate" was changed to a professorship, called the Hulsean Professors! li]) of Divinity. Bishop Ellicot was the flrst incinnl)ent in the new chair. At present the oflice of the Hidscau Lecturer or Preacher is annual, and the duty of the lecturer to preach not less than four, nor more than six sermons in the course of the year. Among the most important of the Hulsean sermons are the following: Blunt (J. J.), Principles for the proper Understanding of the Mosaic Writings, 1832 (Lond. 1833, 8vo); Alford, The Consistency of the Dirine Conduct in rerealing the Doctrines of Redemption, 1841 (Cambridge, 1812.
