Broad on Ward

From p.35 of "The Local Historical Background of Contemporary Cambridge Philosophy", in C. A. Mace (ed.) (1957) British Philosophy in the Mid-Century (London: G. Allen and Unwin) pp. 13-61.

On James Ward (Professor of Logic and Mental Philosophy at Cambridge between 1897 and 1925), Broad writes:

"Throughout his life he remained a convinced theist and a stern puritan. A sincerely good and deeply religious man, with a melancholy disposition, a dyspeptic stomach, and a sharp tongue, he had all those virtues which have tended to make virtue so unpopular."
