March 9. At Shrewsbury, in his 75th year, William Sandford, esq. formerly Captain in the 31st reg. of Foot.

At Yarmouth, aged 85, Sarah, widow of the late Rev. Henry Parish, Rector of Cahir and Dunmore, in Ireland, and Chaplain to his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant.

At his house in Chatham-place, in his 69th year, Richard Winstanley, esq. an eminent auctioneer, in Paternoster-row.

At Maidenhead Bridge, Berkshire, in his 61st year, Nich. Pocock, esq. late of Great George-street.

At Stamford-bill, in her 45th year, Elizabeth-Sybilla, wife of Wm. Fry, esq. banker.

At her house at Dulwich, in her 85th year, Mrs. North, widow of the late Percival North, esq. of Bridge-street, Blackfriars (of whom see vol. LXXXVIII. i. 281). Perhaps there is no instance in which two persons had, during more than half a century, adorned the connubial state, or filled up their station in society with more honour to themselves, or more satisfaction to the very extensive circle in which they associated.. - Mrs. North was possessed of a well-informed mind and steady judgment. Her disposition was friendly and open-hearted-of quick sensibility, which never restrained her in any opportunity of doing good ;of temper cheerful, and of penetration always quick sighted, and of manners hospitable and social; her house and table were open to men of letters, as well as to general acquaintance, and those who participated in her domestic affections, felt the consolations of her regard, and the value of her friendship was enhanced by a tenderness, which rather exemplified her paternal love! These qualities she enjoyed and practised until the last few days of her life-in which, after iudisposition, she gradually sunk out of life, into, it is hoped, a blessed immortality. She, with her late worthy husband, were among the first of the Unitarian congregation formed by the late Rev. Theophilus Lindsay, at Essex-house, in 1774, and continued therein during the subsequent ministries of Rev. Dr. Disdey, and the present Rev. Thos. Belsham. But their friends and associates were not limited to persons of their own religious persuasion. Their regards were like those of other good Christians, extended to all, and were never betrayed into the exclusive principle, far too prevalent at this time, of denying salvation to any other than to those of their own persuasion : their high example to society, for undeviating integrity, for religious life, and for the cheerful enjoyment of the blessings granted to them, of which they were both habitually grateful, have left an indelible veneration and esteem for their charac

ters, which sanctified the tears that followed them to their grave.

March 10. At his house in Highburyplace, Islington, after a short illness of three days, John Burgass, esq. many years a partner in the firm of Hopkins, Lincolne, Burgass, and Hopkins, tallow merchants and soap boilers, in Barbican.

March 11. In the Abbey Foregate, Shrewsbury, in the 86th year of her age, Mrs. Rowland, relict of the Rev. John Rowland.

At Swanswick, near Bath, the wife of Edward Clarke, esq. and sister of the late Sir George Prevost, bart.

March 12. At Bath, Catherine, wife of the Hon, and Rev. James St. Leger.

At Exmouth, Mary, wife of Capt, T. Young, R.N. third daughter of the late Sir Wm. Jeynes, of Gloucester.

LXXXIV. ii. p. 497).-This gentleman had been for a great number of years the confidential and faithful Steward of the town estates of their Graces the Dukes of Bedford; and has died, in a ripe old age, deeply regretted by a very numerous circle of friends.
