by which he set their minds at ease: tothese 
affairs he was equally, or, if possible, more 
attentive than to his own. Never was there 
a character in which there was less of self 
than im his. It were superfluous to add in 
what manner such a man filled the respective 
yela‘ions of son and brother, of husband and 
father, friend and master. He preserved 
through liféa guiletess simplicity of manners, 
an unaffected modesty, and unassuming de- 
portment. Those who knew him will long 
bear im remembrance his placid, frank, and 
benignant countenance ; the true index of his 
heart and mind. His unceasing attention to 
the duties he was called to perform, the great 
interest he took in the concerns of his friends 
and those who entrusted their affairs to him, 
and the constant. exertion of mind and body 
which these varied duties required, contribu- 
ted to wear out a constitution not naturally 
strong. For two or three years past his friends 
have remarked with grief, the gradual decline 
of his health. He quitted life withthe same 
quietness and composure he hae passed through 
it. His lamp went gently out: he drew his 
last breath during sleep: and died at twenty 
minutes past three in the afternoon of the 
y8th of May. His servants and numerous 
tenantry spontaneously paid the same exter- 
nal tribute of affection and regard they pay 
toa near relative, by shutting up their houses. ’ 
"The internal sense of the loss they had sus- 
tained was manifested not merely-by the tears 
shed at his funeral, but by constant ejacula- 
tions of sorrow and lamentations. He has left a 
widow and six children to lament the loss of 
one of the kindest and most aftectionate hus- 
bands, of one of the most attentive and fond- 
est fathers. Theoldest is married to Captain 
.Eveleigh of the royal engineers; the second to 
Captain Giffard, of the royal navy, and lieu- 
tenant-governor of the royal naval college in 
thedock yard. ‘The three remaining daughters 
are unmarried. His son is a minor; a young 
man of very amiable manners and the most 
promising talents; he was educated under the 
modest but classic Cogan, of Higham Hill, 
Walthamstow, and is now studying at Trinity 
_sollege, Cambridge, for the common-law.
