wicke. He was successively appointed to the 
deanery of Lincoln, and the bishoprics of

His lordship was affectionately loyal to his 
Sovereign, politely atrentive to his equals, 
and kindly interested for the welfare of his 
interiors, It is almost unnecessary to mon- 
tion, among so many instances of his dis 
interested sense of dury, that the mastership 
af Jesus college, Cambridge, was offered to 
the fate Dr. Paley without solicitation; and 
that during his superintendence, by example 
and exhortation, to the clergy of the diocese, 
especially with respect to residence, the isle 
of. Ely had much improved in morals, in so. . 
cial order, and in general felicity. His lord- 
ship has leit a widow, whose affliction will 
doubtless be mitigated by the recollection of 
having been a dutiful and affectionate, cam- 
panion during a long course of years, em- 
ployed in the exercise of useful virtue and 
charitable piety ; also numerous relatives and 
descendants, by whom he’ will ever be re- 
gretted, and a memory worthy of the digni- 
fied’ situation in which he was placed He 
lived to his latest hour with the consolation 
and the tranquillity of a patriarch. He suc- 
ceeded to the see of St. David's, in 1774, was 
translated to Glocester in 1779, andin 1781 
to that of Ely, on the death ot Dr. Keene.
