Huie, Richard, M.D., was born at Aberdeen, 1795, and educated at the High School, Edinburgh, and the University of Edinburgh. Entering upon the medical profession, he practised at Dundee for some time, and then removed to Edinburgh in 1822. He died June 10, 1867. He published:—
The Family Hymn-Book, being a Selection of Hymns from the best authors, interspersed with a few Originals, and arranged for the purposes of Domestic Worship, By Richard Huie, M.D. , Edinburgh, 1825.
To this Selection he contributed 29 hymns. Of these the following are given in Lyra Britannia, 1867.
1. Ask, and ye shall get the blessing. The Mercy-Seat.
2. What is faith? It is to see. Faith, Hope, and Charity.
3. Ye worldly cares and themes, be gone. Saturday Evening.
The following cento is also from the Family Hymn Book, 1825, No. 250:—
4. O ye who with the silent tear. Burial. It is stanzas i., iii. slightly altered, and was given in Bickersteth's Christian Psalmody, 1833, as by "Whitmore"; in the 1836 ed., as by "Huie"; and in his son's Psalms & Hymns based on the Christian Psalmondy, 1858, as by " Hull," which is probably a misprint for “Huie."
