Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cutting Capers, Caper Sauce, and Other Poems EN RY martyn foot was born on the a8th February, 1843, in Devonshire, England; and after school days proceeded to Regent's Park College, London. While there, in 1864 he graduated b.a. At London University, with first class honours in Mental and Moral Science and was elected Scholar of the University. In 1866 the additional degree of ll.b was gained. On completion of his theological studies he became a Minister to Baptist Churches in Devon, and at Nottingham, where his health so completely broke down that he was ordered to leave England at once if he wished to live. He therefore departed in March, 1872, having accepted the Pastorate of the Baptist Church at Graham's Town, where he rendered services highly appreciated by many in that City. He also took great interest in the Public Library, and the Public Schools. There he married a daughter of the Hon. D. H. Kennelly, and lived until 1877, when he was invited to become co-pastor with the Rev. William Thomson at Caledon Square Congregational Church, Cape Town, from which position he retired in 1880. In December, 1877, Mr. Foot was elected Assistant Registrar of the University of the Cape of Good Hope for a period of eighteen months, and carried on the duties of Registrar while the Rev. Dr. Cameron (the Registrar) filled the office of Superintendent General of Education, during the absence from the Colony of Dr. Dale. In July, 1879, Mr. Foot was appointed Secretary to the South African College Council, which he resigned at the end of 1881; but he was reappointed in the beginning of 1884, retaining the office until the end of 1896.
