Warburton, esq. 
In Bedford-street, aged a6, Miss Harriet 
Caldeoedi; daughter of Sir John C., bart, 
ly Edward-street, Portman-square, D4iss 
Harriet Frankland,*the only unmarried daugh- 
ter of the late Admiral Sir Thomas F., bart, 
of Thirkleby, Yorkshire. 
In Red-Lion-court, Fleet-street, aged 80, 
Mr. Fobn Wingrave, many years an eminent 
bookbinder. He had the honour of being pa- 
tronised by the Duke of Grafton, Major Pear- 
son, Isaac Reed, and several other first col- 
lectors of curious books. He was a citizen of 
London, the father of the bookbinding trade, 
and one of the oldest inhabitants of St. Duns- 
tan’s parish, of which he was a constable in 
3767, and apprehended the famous Mrs. 
Brownrigg. He pubiished at that time ** A 
Narrative of the many Cruelties inflicted 
by her upon her apprentice Mary Clifford, 
for which she received sentence of death Sep. 
12, 1767,” 
At her house in Brompton-row, Knights- 
briage, Mrs. Stephanoff. She was by birth a 
German, and displayed considerable taste and 
talent in painting flowers, in which she occa- 
sionally instructed a few young ladies in that 
Vicinity. Her husband was a Russian painter 
of some celebrity, and died about eleven or 
twelve year ago. By him she had two sons, 
both of whom are students at the Royal Aca- 
demy, and though very young have exhibited 
at the British Gallery s¢veral specimens of 
their abilities in painting historical pictures, 
which give every promise of future excel- 
lence in their art. 
At his apartments in Bow-street, aged 66, 
Mr. Thomas Carpmeal, one of the oldest offi- 
cers belonging to the public office; having 
been appointed by the late Sir John Fielding, 
in the year 3769. He distinguished himself 
in accompanying Mr. Clarke, an officer of the 
highest respectability belonging to Bow- 
Street, and Mr, Jealous, to apprehend three 
highwaymen, at a house in Hemlock-court, 
Cary-street, for a robbery on Finchley Com- 
mon, when he not only behaved in the most 
courageous manner, but also shewed some exe 
cellent management. On his appointment at 
Bow-street he became one of the most active 
officers belonging to that establishment, and 
was sent at various times by government and 
different public offices and bodies to all parts 
of England, Scotland, and Ireland, and to 
different parts of the Continent to apprehend 
persons charged with crimes, in all of which 
he was very successful. About twenty years 
ago he was sent to France, to apprehend three 
men who had absconded to that kingdom. 
Their crime, we believe, was forgery on the 
Bank of Englandtoa large amount. By in- 
defatigable enquiries and pains he traced out 
the men, but on applying to the French po- 
lice to have them arrested, his application 
was refused, it was, however, agreed that 
Carpmieal should have a fair chance of appres 
Deaths in and near London. NS 
hending them after they were off French 
ground, and some of the police officers of 
France took them ina cart to the frontiers of 
Holland, and turned them loose on the sandy 
beach of the coasts of that country. The dee 
linquents took to their heels, and Carpmeal 
and his assistants pursued them, secured two 
and brought them to England, where they 
were tried, found guilty, andexecuted. He 
continued his usual, activity in the office till 
within the last five or six years, during which 
time his health has been declining. The 
Old Bailey Sessions Paper is a standing proof 
of the efficacy of the measures adopted by 
Carpmeal in apprehending those of dishonest 
members of society, which every six weeks are 
put upon their trials for offences of all descrip= 
tions. 
At Pimlico, Mr, Fonathan Swainson. This 
highly respected character was a native of the 
county of Caithness, in North Britain, where 
he received a very liberal education under the 
care of his father, who was in the medical 
profession. Early in life he entered into some 
commercial speculations which obliged him 
to quit his native country for India; where 
indulging too much in the gay habits of life, 
in a climate not very congenial to Europeans, 
his constitution became much debilitated, and 
exhibited symptoms of a pulmonary affection, 
which terminated afterwards in a confrmed 
asthma. Finding his health would not pere 
mit him to continue his commercial pursuits ; _ 
he returned to England, and was induced at 
the instance of his friends to endeavour to es- 
tablish himself as a private teacher, in which 
he so far succeeded as to gain the patronage 
and esteem of some of the first families of dis- 
tinction, in which he had the honour to dis- 
charge the important duties of that profession 
till within.a few months of his death. He’ 
was a man, compassionate and generous, in 
his disposition ; open, candid, and honourable 
in all his actions: possessing an extensive 
knowledge, in the various branches of elegant 
and polite literature, with a happy facility of 
communicating that knowledge to others; 
firm and sincere in his attachments 3 and an 
inflexible advocate of the genuine principles of 
liberty 5 which he at all times defended with 
a flow of manly eloquence, which at once be» 
spoke the energy of his mind, and the purity 
of his heart: in short the whole tenor of his 
life, was such ag to gain him the entire confi- 
ence and esteem of many of the most select 
and polished circles of private society, whom 
he has now left to mourn the loss of so many 
rare and exemplary talents, in so faithful and 
sincere a friend. He bore his long sufferings 
with philosophical fortitude, and died in the 
48th year of his age, sincerely regretted by 
all who had the hoenaur of his acquaintance, 
At his father’s house, in Grove place, 
Hackney, Thomas. Pomeroy, jun. 17. There 
are peculiar circumstances connected with 
the life and death of this apparently promising 
youth, which may make a shoct relation of
