Jan Jakob Lodewijk Ten Kate

Jan Jakob Lodewijk Ten Kate

Jan Jakob Lodewijk ten Kate (December 23, 1819 - December 24, 1889), Dutch divine, prose writer and poet, was born at The Hague. He started in life as a lawyer's clerk. It was his friend, Dr Heldring, pastor at Hemmen, in Gelderland, who, discovering in Ten Kate the germs of poetical genius, enabled him to study theology at the University of Utrecht
