In Giltspur-street Compter, Felix Cæsar O'Neil O'Hanlon, a notorious swindler. About fifteen months since he visited Birmingham, and representing himself as a commissary attached to the army of Lord Wellington, put almost the whole of the manufactures of that place in requisition. Of saddles alone, ke had given an order for 20,000. At Bath, having undertaken to defray the joint expense of a chaise to London, he became acquainted with Mr. Hawkins, a banker, with whom still maintaining the character of a commissary, and representing himself as the protegé of Lord Wellington, he 276 Account of Sir J. Thorold, Lady Kenyon, &c. ments, Romances," &c. [April 1, "Extracts from the Works of the Archbishop of Cambray," 12mo. "A Collection of Letters on Religious Subjects by Friends deceased," 2 vols. "Abstracts from the Old and New Testament," chiefly intended for children, 2 vols. 12mo. "A Collection of Poems on Religious subjects," from various authors. "Ex so far ingratiated himself, that he obtained his consent in three days to marry his daughter. To this family he pretended to be possessed of large property, and affected to make a settlement of 20,0001. on his future bride. To solemnize the nuptials in a suitable manner, a vast number of tradesmen were duped. The fraud was, however, soon discovered, and the anticipations of splendour and hap-tracts from the Imitation of Christ, by Thopiness entertained by the young lady and her friends, were quickly disappointed by the arrest of the deceased. His conduct while in prison was irregular, and a wound which he had received in his leg from a duel was brought to such a state of irritability, as to produce mortification and an inflammatory fever, which caused his death. At Syston Park, near Grantham, Sir John, Thorold, bart. 81. He succeeded his father, the eighth baronet, in 1775, having previously married, in 1771, the daughter and heiress of Heyford, esq. by whom he has left several children. Sir John was elected knight of the shire for the county of Lincoln in 1780, 1784, and 1790. At Gredington, N. Wales, Lady Kenyon, 29. Her ladyship was the only daughter of the late Sir Thos. Hanmer, bart. and mar. ried, in 1803, to the present Lord Kenyon, to whom she has left two sons and three daughters. In the New Road, J. Buttolph, esq. 62. He was of such penurious and eccentric habits, that, though possessed of a landed estate of 1200l. per annum, he frequently denied himself the common necessaries of life. It was his boast, that he had never rode on horseback since he had arrived at years of maturity, on account of the accidents to which equestrians were liable. From the like apprehension, he avoided travelling in any vehicle; and his journies into the country were always performed on foot. His landed property, which lies in Yorkshire, devolves to a poor and distant relative, whom he had constantly refused to see during his life. At Colchester, John Kendall, a member of the Society of Friends, universally beloved, respected, and regretted, by the inhabitants of that town and its neighbourhood, to which he had long been a conspicuous ornament, 89. He was the author of the following tracts: "Remarks on Stage Entertain mas à Kempis." "An Abridgment of the Life of Thomas Story." "Principles and Precepts of the Christian Religion, explained by way of Question and Answer." At his house in St. Martin's - street, Leicester-fields, on the 18th of February, that well-known, industrious, excellent, and classical bookbinder, Mr. Charles Hering, after a painful illness of three months, leat ing a disconsolate widow, with ten children, all minors, to lament his loss, 52. This atticle of intelligence will be read with regret by the bibliographical world, as Mr. Hering was a treasure to many noble and learned amateurs of the empire for a series of years; for few could equal and none excel him in such points of his business as were of the most importance to those with whom accuracy and elegance were indispensable: particularly in his mode of rebinding early printed books, and that both in respect to his exactness of prescribed arrangement, his care as to breadth of margin, and his tasteful, orna. mental, yet correct, mode of tooling and finishing. To enumerate the various libraries in which specimens of his skill are depo sited would alone fill up the space allotted for this article; but any work taken from them at random might be esteemed as a fair specimen of his abilities. Yet if we were to particularize, perhaps the illustrated copy of Shakespeare, in Lord Spenser's library, the indefatigable labour of fifteen years, by the late Dowager Lady Lucan, may be censidered as unrivalled. If any thing can allay the regret of amateurs for his loss, it is that the concern will still, we understand, be conducted by his brother and eldest son, for the benefit of the orphans, so that the same unique neatness and elegance may yet be realized.
