Our columns yesterday contained a notification of the death of Mr. George Willoughby Hemans as having taken place at his residence in Roland-gardens, Kensington, on Tuesday last in the 72d year of his age. The deceased gentleman was one of the five sons of the lamented poetess, Mrs. Felicia Hemans, by her marriage, in 1812, with Captain Alfred Hemans, of the 4th (King's Own) | Regiment. Her children are repeatedly mentioned in Mrs. Hemans's poetry, and they were all reared by her after her husband left her to go and live abroad; and it was a childish question of Mr. George Hemans or one of his brothers which gave birth to those most favourite and often quoted lines-"The Better Land." Mr. Hemans had survived his mother just half a century.
