Lately at Chaiae,: In the parith of Cum= 
whitton, near Carlifle, between feventy and 
eighty years of age, Thomas Milbourn, a 
man whofe fingular difpofition and manner of 
life deferves fome notice. During tlie.former 
part of his life he wasa farmer’s fervant, in 
which honeft and laborious vocation he con- 
trived to fave 200]. with this fum he pur+ 
chafed a {mall farm at Carnbridge (borrow- 
ing fuch a fam, as added to his own, made 
up the purchafe money), and thenceforward 
refided upon his little eftate.’ He never mar- 
tied, nor hired a fervant into his houfe; but 
lived alone, and principally cultivated his 
land with his own hands. ‘Thomas’s great 
objeét was to fave money, and, to that end, 
he denied himfelf not only the: conveniences, 
but what, by moft people, are confidered the 
neceflaries of life: His food was ef the moft 
homely kind, and ufed{paringly 5 the fcanty 
contents of his wardrobe were. hardly fuffici- 
ent to cover his fhivering limbs, or to hide his 
nakednefs, and, being covered with dirt and 
vermin, were configned to the flames imme- 
diately after his death; a razor_had not been 
applied to his face for many years, nor a brufh 
nor broom to his houfe. . His bed, half filléd 
with chaff and ftraw, had a poor covering, 
and a fleece of wool fupplied the place of a 
pillow. This, with the few remaining mi- 
ferable articles of houfchold furniture, when 
drawn from the wildernefs:of ftreaming cob- 
webs. which had been accumulating for the 
lafttwenty years, were fold, at public fale, 
for lefg than ten fhillings. By a continued 
obfervance of the moft rigid parfimony, Old 
Thomas foon cleared himielf of his pecuni- 
ary incumbrances, and, in the. end, had 
{craped together property in land, money, 
and «cattle, to the amount. of near roool. 
His love of money did not defert him even on 
his death-bed; where, My ngin a very laneuid
