Wilkes,’ whofe death was announced in our laff

the day before, and dined, apparently in per- 
fe& health. It appears, however, that about 
12 at night, fhe called up her fervants, and 
in lefs than an hour expired, She was ad- 
vanced in life, and for fome years paft had 
been deprived of her voice, which fhe re- 
covered in a fmall degree, but generally 
{poke in a harfh, difcordant manner. Her 
mind had been feduloufly cultivated by her 
father, and fhe was refpected as a well-bred, 
intelligent woman. Filial affe€tion was al- 
ways a ftriking feature in her gharatter, 
which virtue fhe difplayed in a generous ufe 
of her independent fortune in fupport of her 
father, during,many fevere embartaflments, — 
which his profufe ftyle of living brought 
upon him. it is underftood that fhe had 
many M.S.S. of her father’s, which fhe in- 
tended to give to the public, among which 
were his private and political life, in two 
diftinét works, as well as many poetical imi- 
tations of clafiic authors. Mifs Wilkes 
lived in circles of elegance and fafhion, in 
which her good fenfe, knowledge of the 
world, and eafy manners fhone confpicuousy 
and rendered her very acceptable. |
