(1816-1853) Divine, son of Captain Frederick Robertson, of the Royal Artillery, was born in London, and educated at Edinburgh and Oxford. fter holding various curacies he became in 1847 incumbent of Trinity Chapel, Brighton, where his preaching, though it brought him under the suspicion both of the High and Evangelical parties in the Church, had an extraordinary influence. Always of delicate and highly-strung constitution, his health gave way after his ministry in Brighton had extended to six years, and he died in 1853. The beauty of his life and character had almost conquered the suspicion and dislike with which his views had inspired many. His sermons, of which five series were puborn posthumously, have had a very wide popularity.
