Notes

Elias Palairet (1713–1765) was a Dutch minister and classical scholar, who spent his later life in England.

Life

Born in Rotterdam, Palairet was from a Huguenot background. After studying at Leyden he took Protestant holy orders, and became successively preacher at Aardenburg (1741), Doornik (1749), and Tournai.^[1]

On coming to England Palairet acted as pastor of the French church at Greenwich, and of St. John's Church, Spitalfields, and latterly preacher in the Dutch chapel at St. James's, Westminster. His abilities attracted the notice of Bishop John Egerton, who made him his chaplain.^[1]

Palairet died in Marylebone on 2 January 1765; he left all his property to his wife Margaret.^[1]

In 1756 Palairet corrected for William Bowyer the Ajax and Electra of Sophocles, published in 1758. His annotations on the treatises of Xenophon the Ephesian were printed in Petrus Hofman Peerlkamp's edition (Haarlem, 1818).^[1]
