DR. SAMUEL JOHNSON,
Pope
's "Messiah" into Latin verse. The style and rhythm, indeed, were not exactly Virgilian; but the translation found many admirers, and was read with pleasure by Pope himself.
The time drew near at which Johnson would, in the ordinary course of things, have become a Bachelor of Arts; but he was at the end of his resources. Those promises of support on which he had relied had not been kept. His family could do nothing for him. His debts to Oxford tradesmen were small indeed, yet larger than he could pay. In the autumn of 1731 he was under the necessity of quitting the university without a degree. In the following winter his father died. The old man left but a pittance; and of that pittance almost the whole was appropriated to the support of his widow. The property to which Samuel succeeded amounted to no more than twenty pounds.
But this was not the worst. A deep melancholy took possession of him, and gave a dark tinge to all his views of human nature and of human destiny. Such wretchedness as he endured has driven many men to shoot themselves or drown themselves. But he was under no temptation to commit suicide. He was sick of life; but he was afraid of death; and he shuddered at every sight or sound which reminded him of the inevitable hour. In religion he found but little comfort during his long and frequent fits of dejection; for his religion partook of his own character. The light from heaven shone on him indeed, but not in a direct line, or with its own pure splendour. The rays had to struggle through a disturbing medium; they reached him refracted, dulled and discoloured by the thick gloom which had settled on his soul, and, though they might be sufficiently clear to guide him, were too dim to cheer him.

Samuel Johnson
From LoveToKnow 1911
SAMUEL JOHNSON (1709-1784), English writer and lexicographer, was the son of Michael Johnson (1656-1731), bookseller and magistrate of Lichfield , who married in 1706 Sarah Ford (1669-1759). Michael's abilities and attainments seem to have been considerable. He was so well acquainted with the contents of the volumes which he exposed for sale that the country rectors of Staffordshire and Worcestershire thought him an oracle on points of learning. Between him and the clergy, indeed, there was a strong religious and political sympathy. He was a zealous churchman, and, though he had qualified himself for municipal office by taking the oaths to the sovereigns in possession, was to the last a Jacobite in heart . The social position of Samuel's paternal grandfather, William Johnson , remains obscure; his mother was the daughter of Cornelius Ford, "a little Warwickshire Gent." At a house (now the Johnson Museum) in the Market Square, Lichfield, Samuel Johnson was born on the 18th of September 1709 and baptized on the same day at St Mary's, Lichfield. In the child the physical, intellectual and moral peculiarities which afterwards distinguished the man were plainly discernible: great muscular strength accompanied by much awkwardness and many infirmities; great quickness of parts, with a morbid propensity to sloth and procrastination; a kind and generous heart, with a gloomy and irritable

    Bolsover District is fortunate in possessing a nucleus of parishes that contain small towns and villages with considerable character and history, parts of which have been designated as conservation areas to ensure they remain unspoilt by inappropriate development. This chapter is a gazetteer of some of these places.
    Ault Hucknall
    This is a scattered rural parish of 4,428 acres lying 5.5 miles north west of Mansfield and 7.5 miles north east of Chesterfield, and comprising the villages of Ault Hucknall, Stainsby, Hardwick, Astwith, Bramley Vale and Doe Lea and having a population of 820. Hardwick Hall (see Treasures of Bolsover District) is situated in this parish. The Authority has carried out major housing development at the village of Doe Lea, replacing most of the former terraced cottages with modern houses and bungalows. Ault is from "haut' meaning high. St. John's Church (left) has many interesting features from Norman and earlier times, including a carving of a dragon on the west wall and a Norman tympanum (door frame). Thomas Hobbes, the noted philosopher and a man of letters, who was tutor to Charles II, is buried here. Hobbes is world famous for his book "Leviathan", foundation of the British liberal constitution. The lost village of Blingsby was close to Stainsby Mill and the Blingsby Gate entrance to Hardwick Hall. The village was probably abandoned during the "Black Death" (mid 14th century) where survivors moved to bigger settlements to replace depleted populations.
