Here was born David Hartley, in 1705, a physician, whose Observations on Man, His Frame, His Duty, and His Expecta- tions, though written with the purest intentions, have contributed to un- settle the understanding, and have led to no useful result: his Theory of Vibra- tions has long been laughed as well as reasoned out of fashion.
