Julius Henry
Julius Henry duke of Brunswick, deserves our notice on account of his identification with the Reform movement of the 16th century. He was born July 10, 1538, and was originally designed for the clerical office, but in 1568 he succeeded his father, and at once introduced the religion of the Reformers, for which he had early manifested a strong inclination. In 1576 he founded the University of Helmstedt. He died May 3, 1589.
