Summary "Principal Cairns" by John Cairns is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work serves as a biography of John Cairns, a prominent Scottish theologian and minister, highlighting his ancestry, childhood, education, and the influences that shaped his life and career. It delves into the early years of Cairns and the origins of his family's struggles and achievements in the pastoral and religious atmosphere of 19th-century Scotland. At the start of "Principal Cairns," readers are introduced to the life of John Cairns, who was born in 1818 in Ayton Hill, Berwickshire. The narrative captures the humble beginnings of his family, including their Scottish farming lineage and socioeconomic challenges. Throughout the opening chapters, Cairns reflects on his childhood experiences, early education under a dedicated schoolmaster, and the pivotal role of his parents in nurturing his intellectual and spiritual growth.
