The bishop’s Jast journey to 
Brighton was a most melancholy 
one. He left the capital in good 
health, and went to Brighton to 
spend some time with his old friend 
and patron lord Thurlow, whom on 
his arrival he found dead !—he was 
seized with the fatal disorder of 
which he dicd on the Wednesday, 
and did not survive the following 
Saturday. He had, for the benefit 
of his family, made an insurance on 
his life to the amount of 5000I. 
The policy unfortunately expired 
two days before his death. His 
lordship meant to have renewed it 
if he had not been prevented by his 
fatal illness. He has left four sisters ; 
three of whom are single, and one 
married to Mr. Palmer ; and two 
brothers, the above-named John 
Horsley, and Francis Horsley, esq.

India company at Bengal, and 
about returning to England with a 
good fortune, honourably acquired, 
The bishop was buried in the 
family vault at Newington church, 
from the house of Mr. Palmer, 
his brother-in-law, in Queen Anne- 
strect 
_™ The members of the choir of the church of Westminster have every reason to 
respect his lordship’s memory. He eave them substantial proofs of his attention 
to their comforts.
