He was educated first at a dissenting college and afterwards at Cambridge, where he won a scholarship at Trinity and gained high honors. On leaving the university he joined the Church of England, took orders, and became curate to the Rev. Edward Bickersteth, whose daughter he afterwards married. In 1866 he accepted the charge of Trinity Church, Cambridge, and in 1872, on the death of F. D. Maurice, he was elected his successor as Knightsbridge professor of moral philosophy at Cambridge, an appointment which led to much discussion. He was an active controversialist. His Supernatural Revelation was an answer to the anonymous work on Supernatural Religion, and his Modern Physical Fatalisin was an examination of the doctrines of Herbert Spencer, and was followed by a controversy with that author.
