ANNUAL REGISTER, 1804. 



months ago, on his way to Egypt, 

 where he was appointed consul-ge- 

 neral and also in the Mediterranean. 

 It is supposed that his death pro- 

 ceeded from a bad fever, which was 

 occasioned by excessive fatigue, ia 

 visiting the plains of Troy. The 

 fever had entirely left him, when he 

 landed from his majesty's ship An- 

 son, from Smyrna ; but it left such 

 a debility, that he never recovered ; 

 and Mr. Locke died without speak- 

 ing a word after he had landed, 

 which was about ten days. 



I3th. On board the Centaur, off 

 the Diamond Hock, ilartiniquc, 

 capt. Reynolds, son of capt. Carthew 

 Reynolds, of his majesty's sloop 

 Curieux ; who obtained the com- 

 mand of her, for his gallant con- 

 duct, in cutting her out from under 

 fort Etlward, Marfinique, having 

 received seven wounds in the con- 

 ilict. This brave promising young 

 man was ill of the fever, in prince 

 Rupert's bay, Dominique, and on 

 his arrival at Barbadoes, was re- 

 moved on shore, but finding he got 

 Avorse, was taken on board the Cen- 

 taur, to go out the cruise, in hope 

 change of air might bring him about, 

 but every thing proved ineffectual. 

 His remains Mere deposited on the 

 Diamond Rock, where a stone will 

 be erected to perpetuate his memo- 

 ry. The funeral was conducted with 

 as much ceremony as time and cir- 

 cumstances would alloAV. 



14th. At Ilam-house, Surrey, 

 aged 59, Anna Maria countess of 

 Dysart. She was eldest daughter of 

 David Lewis, esq. of Malvern, co, 

 Warwick, and sister to Magdelena 

 countess of Dysart (lady of Lionel 

 the last earl), and was married, in 

 1777, to Wilbraham ToUemache, 

 the present carl ; who having no is- 

 sue, sir William Manners, bart. 

 (the eldest son of lady Louisa Man- 



ners, his lordship's sister) is pre- 

 sumptive heir to the title. Her re-- 

 mains were interred, on the 24th, 

 in the family-vault in Suffolk. 



Drowned, in the sight of his af- 

 flicted parents, while bathing in the 

 Wye, at Coldwell, John, the third 

 son of J. Warre, esq. of Hendon- 

 placc. 



At Geneva, Gilbert Ainsley, esq. 

 of Baker-street, Portman-square, 

 son-in-law to sirllcn.y Blackman. 



Ifith. This afternoon, at two 

 o'clock, the rev. William Tindal, 

 M. A. F.S.A. and chaplain of the 

 Tower, shot himself, with a mus- 

 quetoon strongly charged, at his 

 house on the parade in that fortress. 

 He had in the morning waited on 

 the governor to request his permis- 

 sion of absence from chapel that 

 day, on account of indisposition ; 

 which was granted, under circum- 

 stances of polite and even of kind 

 consideration. No immediate cause 

 seems to have instigated the act. 



17th. At Vienna, the countess 

 Zamoiska, sister to the late king of 

 Poland. She did not leave behind 

 her more property than was suffici- 

 ent to bestow some legacies on the 

 poor, and the exa6t amount of vi'hat 

 she inherited from her parents. Her 

 unfortunate brother, king Stanis- 

 laus, Mas equally generous, patri- 

 otic, and disinterested; and, in- 

 stead of enriching himself or his re- 

 lations, lived the last years of his 

 life upon alms at St. Petersburgh, 

 where he died a pauper. The love 

 of Catherine IL from a nobleman 

 made him a king ; and afterwards 

 her ambition reduced him from a 

 king to a pensioner. 



19th. At her cottage, near 

 Chcrtsey, Surrey, after a long and 

 painful illness, which she bore with 

 the greatest fortitude and resigna- 

 tion, in her 44th year, lady Mary 



Stawell,
