DEATHS ARROAD, 
Lately, at Vicenza, in Italy, in the 24th 
year of his age, Bertie Greathead, jun efq. 
fon of Bertie Greathead, efg. of Guys Cliff, * 
near Warwick, a moft accomplithed and ex- 
cellent young man, whofe lofs has occafioned 
an irreparable breach in the happinefs of his 
afii&ted and affeétionate parents, and will 
ever be remembered with fenfations of the 
deepeft regret by an extenfive circle of friends, 
to whom lie had rendered himfelf dear by his 
talents and virtues. Educated under the im- 
mediate view of his admirable parents, whofe 
whole life was a feries of devotion to the in- 
terefts and happinefs of their only child, no 
advantages were wanting which might ren- 
der him a valuable member of {cciety, or 
contribute to enlarge or adorn his mind, and 
his natural difpofisions favoured and pro- 
moted every view of his fond parents. Sub- 
ordination of all other advantages to morality, 
independence of body and mind were conti- 
dered by thefe excellent inftru€tors as the 
Obferving the bad 
effeéts upon the morals which unavoidably 
refult from public education, however care- 
fully conduéted, they refolved to entruft the 
direction of their fon’s principles to no unin- 
terefted preceptors, and to take this ferious 
charge entirely upon themfelves ; and, in 
order to fecure an independence liable to no 
external changes, they determined to watch 
and Cultivate in him thofe inclinations for par- 
ticular purfuits, which, may for the mof part 
be difcovered in all during the earlier years 
of lite, but which are too feldom regarded in 
the diltribution of profeflions and employ- 
ments. With thefe views they removed 
him from Eton to his own home, and there 
encouraged a tafte for the arts, and particu- 
larly painting, which had developed itfelf in 
his infancy, and which became more and 
more con{picuous, aS cpportunities were af- 
forded for ftudying thofe details, without 
which the higheft natural genius muft bend 
before the unintelligent but unremitting ex- 
ertions of ignorance and ftupidity. Shortly 
after his removal from Eton they accompanied 
him, in 1797, to the Continent, and at Got- 
tingen, Drefden, Vienna, and Berlin, gave 
him every opportunity of becoming acquaint- 
ed with foreign manners, and, at the fame 
time, of advancing his general education and 
the more immediate objeé of hi. ftudies from 
the advantages offered by the liberality of 
foreign academies. With the fame objeéts in 
view they vifited Paris in i802, and were 
among the number of thofe unfortunate in- 
dividuals whom the unjuftifiable viclence of 
a foreign tyrant detained from their country 
and homes. They procured, however, leave 
of abfence from France, and, under this per- 
million, vifiied Drefden, from whence they 
proceeded to Vicenza, where their amiable
