Mr. Hugh Hewson, 85. He was a man of no 
mean. celebrity, though no- funeral. 
eutcheons adorned his hearse, or heir expec- 
tant graced his absequies. He was no less a 
porsonage than the identical Hugh Strap, 
whom Dr. Smollett has rendered so conspicu- 
ously interesting in his Lite and Adventures 
of Roderick Random, and for upwards of 40 
years had kept a hais dresser’s shop in the 
parish of St. Martin’s in the Fields. He was a 
very intelligent man, and took delight in 
recounting the adventures of his early life. 
He spoke with pleasure of the time he passed 
in the service of the Doctor, and it was his 
pride, as well as boast, to, say that he had 
been educated in the same seminary with so 
learned and distinguished a character. His 
shop was hung round with Latin quotations,

and he would frequently point out to his cuse 
tomers and acquaintances the several scenes 
in Roderick Random, relating to himself, 
which had their foundation, not in the 
Doctor’s inventive fancy, but in truth and 
reality. The meeting in a barber’s shop at: 
Newcastle-upon-Tyne, the subsequent mis- 
take at the inn,their arrival together in Lone 
don, aud the assistance they experienced from 
Strap’s friend, were all of that description. 
We understand, the deceased has left behind 
him an interlined copy of Roderick Random, 
pointing out these facts, shewing how far 
they were indebted to the genius of the Doc- 
tor, and to what extent they were founded in 
reality. He could never succeed in gaining 
more than a! respectable subsistence by his 
trade, but he possessed an independence of 
mind superior to his humble condition, Of 
late years he was employed as Keeper of the 
Promenade, called Villiers? Walk, and was 
much noticed and respected by the inhabi- 
tants who frequentcd ‘that place.
