- Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Robert Burnett David Morier (31 March 1826 – 16 November 1893) was a British diplomatist. Born in Paris, Morier was descended from a family of diplomatists of Huguenot origin, the best known of whom were his father David, consul-general for France and minister at Bern, and his uncle James, the author of The Adventures of Hajji Baba. After a somewhat defective private education he came up to Balliol College, Oxford. Here he attracted the notice of Jowett, under whose influence his brilliant but wayward mind obtained the discipline of which it stood in need. The relation of tutor and pupil developed into a friendship of rare warmth. Writing towards the close of his life, Jowett, who inspired more devoted friendships than any man of his time, spoke of Morier as his kindest and best friend for forty-five years.
