John Logan (minister) : ウィキペディア英語版 | John Logan (minister)
John Logan (1748–1788) was a minister in Leith, Scotland, a popular preacher known also as a historian. Self-destructive behaviour saw him end his life as a hack writer in London. ==Early life== He was born at Soutra, Midlothian, to George Logan, a farmer there, at Janet, daughter of John Waterston in the parish of Stowe. His parents soon moved to Gosford Mains, Aberlady, East Lothian. They were dissenters of the Burgher branch of the First Secession, and attended the ministry of John Brown of Haddington. He then went to the grammar school of Musselburgh; it may have been there that he encountered Alexander Carlyle, a continuing influence in his life. Logan then entered the University of Edinburgh in 1762, where he was taught by Hugh Blair. Lord Elibank, who then resided at Ballencrieff in the parish of Aberlady, interested himself in Logan's welfare, and gave him access to his library. After he had completed his studies for the ministry of the church of Scotland, Logan became, on the recommendation of Blair, tutor to John Sinclair, son of George Sinclair of Ulbster, Caithness-shire.
