West Indies and Gibraltar. In fighting the battles of his country, he received several wounds; and, since his discharge, which took

At his seat in Clarendon, on the 17th September, William PHILLIPS, Esq. aged 67 years, a very old and respectable inhabitant of this

ago, for the purpose of visiting his properties.-Jamaica Gaz. 

 

*** William COMRIE, Esq. Supervisor of Excise in Dumfries, whose obituary was inserted in our last, was aged 55 years, and bore a
long and painful illness with that calmness and resignation which are the effects of a well spent life. He was universally
respected, and discharged the official duty entrusted to him, with those open and steady principles which gained him the highest
respect, and his death is universally lamented. 

 

Of Mr. James KELTON, of Roucan, parish of Torthorwald, near Dumfries, (also noticed in our last,) it may be truly said, that as a
man, he was universally respected, for that firm and upright conduct, which denotes an honest and good heart: open and steady in his
principles, he was a sincere and faithful friend. As a promoter of agriculture, few can be ranked as his equal; his experimental
knowledge in agriculture and farming business introduced him to a most general acquaintance; being a generous and communicative
friend, his memory is most justly regretted by those who were his intimate friends, and by these who were only acquaintance, his
loss is sincerely lamented; he was able to go about until a few days before his death, spinning out the thread of nature, with the
character of a worthy honest man.
