Lately, at Egremont, having nearly come 
pleted his 86th year, Mr. J. Caffon, barber ; 
one of the keeneft hunters that has lived in 
the world fince the days of Nimrod, but all 
his chaces, it feems, were pedeftrian. ‘* The 
hares (fays a humorous writer, in one of the 
Cumberland papers) may blow a joyful mort 
on this occafion, and proclaim a jubilee, for 
fo fatal an enemy their race has never 
known. In the /afon, they adminiftered to 
his amufement in the field, and fupplied the 
chief comforts of his table, throwglout the 
year. With him, fhambles were a fuper- 
fluous appendage to a market, and,,as, Boni- 
face, in the Beaux Stratagem, fays of his 
ale, this fingular perfonage might. be, faid, 
*¢ te eat his bare, to drinik his bare, and to 
fleep upon his bare.” Lhough his fee for 
fhaving never exceeded a penny, yet, byranex- 
traordinary economy, he had amafled a confi- 
derable property, faid to be upwards of 7000]; 
notwithitanding the annual expence of a 
game-certificate, an expence, however, 
which, in his cafe, was juftifiable, upon the 
ftri&tett principles of frugality. Hey conti- 
nued to handle his razor, till fuperfeded by 
the great fhaver, Death.. To the above ace 
count, given by one correfpondent;/! it, is 
added by another, and with great appearance 
of juftice, ‘¢ that the late Mr. Caffon. was of 
{porting memory, but by no means of fportive 
memory. He regularly took out a game- 
certificate, ever fince the Act paffed relative 
to fuch licence: he always entered. four 
game-dogs; paid beth the ,government and 
parochial taxes promptly and cheerfully sand 
made to the commiflioners of the income+ 
tax a very fair and liberal return of bis ine 
come. Although a keen fportfman, he never 
injured any maa, either in the purfuit of his 
favourite diverfion, nor, as is believed, in 
any other way. He had feveral tenants, 
farmers, but he never advanced their rents, 
He loft feveral fums, at different times, but 
however fond. of money the. werld might 
fuppofe him to be, there was nothing in gain 
powerful enough to induce him to feek legal 
redrefs in fuch matters. “ He had beenva 
fportfman. from his youth, but indulged his 
paffion for the field, merely as en amufe- 
ment 5 for no man was more liberal of his 
game.”? In fhort, though a perfon of fucha 
charaéter might pafs for'an oddity among his 
neighbours, it is not denied by any, that he 
was an inoffeniive, friendly, honeft man.’
