DRUMMOND, HENRY (1786-r86o)

This article appears in Volume V08, Page 600 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: DRO-ECG
DRUMMOND, HENRY (1786-r86o) , English banker, politician and writer, best known as one of the founders of the Catholic Apostolic or " Irvingite " Church, was born at the Grange, near Alresford,
Hampshire
 , on the 5th of December 1786. , He was the eldest son of
Henry
  Drummond, a prominent London banker, by a daughter of the first Lord
Melville
 . He was educated at Harrow and at Christ Church, Oxford, but took no degree. His name is permanently connected with the university through the chair of political
economy
  which he founded in 1825. He entered
parliament
  in early life, and took an active
interest
  from the first in nearly all departments of politics. Thoroughly independent and often eccentric in his views, he yet acted generally with the Conservative party. His speeches were often almost inaudible but were generally lucid and informing, and qn occasion caustic and severe. From 1847 until his death in 186o he represented West Surrey in
parliament
 . Drummond took a deep
interest
  in religious subjects, and published numerous books and pamphlets on such questions as the interpretation of prophecy, the circulation of the Apocrypha, the principles of Christianity, &c., which attracted considerable attention. In 1817 he met Robert Haldane at Geneva, and continued his
movement
  against the Socinian tendencies then prevalent in that city. In later years he was intimately associated with the origin and spread of the Catholic Apostolic Church. Meetings of those who sympathized with the views of Edward Irving were held for the study of prophecy at Drummond's seat, Asbury Park, in Surrey; he contributed very liberally to the funds of the new church; and he became one of its leading office-bearers, visiting
Scotland
  as an " apostle " and being ordained as an "
angel
  " for that kingdom. The numerous works he wrote in defence of its distinctive doctrines and practice were generally clear and vigorous, if seldom convincing. He died on the loth of February 1860.
