At hishoufe, at Ponders End, near Enfield, 
William Fuller, efq. of Lombard-ftreet, | 
banker. ‘This gentleman had amaffed one 
ef the largeft perfonal eftates in' the kingdom. 
He was born in 1705, in fome part of Berk- 
fhire, and, at the age of 14, was fent to Lon- 
don as an apprentice to a writing mafter, in 
Tower-ftreet. He firft entered into -bufinefs, 
as a principal, in Fenchurch-fireet, where he 
kept a ichool 3 but the houfe where he ac- 
quired moft of his fame as a writing-mafter, 
and'much of his wealth, was in Lothbury. 
The eftablifhment of his fon, naturally be- 
came to a man of his prudence and experi=: 
ence, an object for the exercife of both: : He 
determined to make him a banker, and placed 
him as clerk, in the houfe of Hinton, Brown, 
and Co, Quakers, in Cotnhill, to qualify 
him for the profeffion he had chofen for- 
him. When this was accomplithed, the wary 
father, who was then of an age at which 
many men, with far lefs fortunes, retire from 
bufinefs, began his new career as a banker, 
in partnerfhip with his fon. Since this epoch 
in Mr. Fuller’s life, more than forty years 
have elapfed, during which, a fyftem of rigid 
economy, bordering on penurioufnefs, has 
enabled him to colle into one heap, the ac- 
cumulating profits of a confiderable banking 
bufinefs, amounting to a fum little thort of 
half a million fterling. The extreme fruga- 
lity of Mr, Fuller has fubjeted his charac- 
ter to fome fhare of ridicule. After all, 
much muft be allowed for the peculiari- 
ty of a man’s habits, who formed his man- 
ners after the models of the laft century, 
and whofe morals were derived from the 
{chools of Calvin. That Mr. -Fuller be- 
ftowed large fums on public charities, of va- 
rious defcriptions, in his life time, is well 
known; and that he privately did many ge- 
nerous aéis, miay fairly be interred from the 
circumftance of his having entrufted the 
Rev. Mr. Winter, and others, with confider- 
able fums of'money, for ebjecéts whom he 
thought deferving of relief, with fri€ iny 
junctions to conceal their benefa€tor from 
their knowledge. He has bequeathed the 
bull of hhis large fortune, to his two furviv- 
ing unmarried dawghters ; the eldeft of whom 
is nearly feventy years of age, and the 
youngeit more than fixty.
