Definition of the Word "Gentleman. {"

Definition of the Word "Gent1eman.
The latest authority, the Century
Dictionary has among seven different
meanings of the word gentleman" the
following pertinent definition:
"a man of good breeding, courtesy,
and kindness; hence, man distin-
guished for fine sense of honor, strict re-
gard for his obligations, and considera-
ton for the rights and feelings of Others.
The publications Of the EARLY English
Text Society" show on page 20 of the
"Babees Book" these lines:
Bare the so thow haue no blame;
Than men wylle say thereafter
That gentyleman was here"
Which in modern dress would read:
Bear thee so thou have NO blame,
Then men will say thereafter
That a gentleman was here.
Barrow in his works, volume 3, chapter
81 says:
For what, pray is a gentleman 2
What properties has he, what qualities
are characterised or peculiar to him
whereby he is distinguished from others
and raised above the vulgari Are they
not especially two, courage and courtesy"
Steele, in No. 207 of the "Tattler:"
"The appellation of gentleman is never
to be affixed to mans circumstances,
but to his behavior in Them.
Emerson, in his Essay of Manners:
"The gentleman is man of truth,
lord of his own action, and expressing
that lordship in his behavior.
Finally, the well known bon mot has
1t that "A gentleman is never in the way
and never out Of the way"
