AINGER, ALFRED (18371904) , English divine and man of letters, was born in London on the 9th of
February
  1837, the on of an architect. He was educated at King's College, London, and at Trinity College,
Cambridge
 , and was ordained in 186o to a curacy at Alrewas, near Rugeley. There he remained until 1864, when he became an assistant master at the Sheffield Collegiate School. His connexion with the Temple
church
 , in London, began in 1866, when he was appointed reader; and in 1894 he succeeded Dr Vaughan as master. In 1887 he was presented to a canonry in Bristol
cathedral
 , and he was chaplainin-
ordinary
  to Queen Victoria and King
Edward
  VII. He died on the 8th of
February
  1904. Canon Ainger's gentle wit and humour, his generosity and lovable disposition, endeared him to a wide circle. In literature his name is chiefly associated with his sympathetic appreciation of Charles Lamb and
Thomas
  Hood. His works include: Charles Lamb (1882) and Crabbe (1903) in the " English Men of Letters "
series
 ; editions of Lamb's Essays of Ella (1883) and of his Letters (1888; 2nd ed., 1904), of the Poems (1897) of
