Excerpt from The Literary Remains of the Rev. Simeon Singer
In the early part of the nineteenth century, Julius Singer was born at Gyor (Raab), a considerable town in Hungary. With many of his contemporaries, Julius Singer - (one of whose near relatives was afterwards leader of the Social-Democratic Party in Berlin) - shared the passionate aspirations towards political liberty which began to stir Hungarian hearts while Kossuth was still a lad. It was owing to his active participation in this struggle that Julius Singer was forced to leave his native town. His patriotism survived this harsh treatment, and he never lost his love for Raab. He betook himself to Denmark, and in July, 1833, we find him enrolled as a member of the Guild of Cloth Merchants at Copenhagen. But, like so many Hungarian patriots, he was irresistibly drawn to the land of freedom. In the year of Queen Victoria's accession he migrated to England, which henceforth became his home. In London he settled in Watling Street. After a brief interval he married Frederica Wolff, a lady of rare intellect and culture.
