e cause of the Poles in _The Pleasures of Hope_, and the
news of the capture of Warsaw by the Russians in 1831 affected him as if
it had been the deepest of personal calamities. "Poland preys on my
heart night and day," he wrote in one of his letters, and his sympathy
found a practical expression in the foundation in London of the
Association of the Friends of Poland. In 1834 he travelled to Paris and
Algiers, where he wrote his _Letters from the South_ (printed 1837).

The small production of Campbell may be partly explained by his domestic
calamities. His wife died in 1828. Of his two sons, one died in infancy
and the other became insane. His own health suffered, and he gradually
withdrew from public life. He died at Boulogne on the 15th of June 1844,
and was buried in Westminster Abbey.

Campbell's other works include a _Life of Mrs Siddons_ (1842), and a
narrative poem, "The Pilgrim of Glencoe" (1842). See _The Life and
Letters of Thomas Campbell_ (3 vols., 1849), edited by William
Beattie, M.D.; _Literary Reminiscences and Memoirs of Thomas Campbell_
(1860), by Cyrus Redding; _The Poetical Works of Thomas Campbell_
(1875), in the Aldine Edition of the British Poets, edited by the Rev.
W. Alfred Hill, with a sketch of the poet's life by William Allingham;
and the "Oxford Edition" of the _Complete Works of Thomas Campbell_
(1908), edited by J. Logie Robertson. See also _Thomas Campbell_ in

Campbell (1904) for the Golden Treasury Series.

CAMPBELL-BANNERMAN, SIR HENRY (1836-1908), English prime minister, was
born on the 7th of September 1836, being the second son of Sir James
Campbell, Bart., of Stracathro, Forfarshire, lord provost of Glasgow.
His elder brother James, who just outlived him, was Conservative M.P.
for Glasgow and Aberdeen Universities from 1880 to 1906. Both his father
and his uncle William Campbell, who had together founded an important
drapery business in Glasgow, left him considerable fortunes; and he
assumed the name of Bannerman in 1872, in compliance with the provisions
