Mr. Bullock, furgeon of the regiment, itated, that in the courfe of the afternoon he was walking with Mrs. Bullock on the heath, between the barracks and Hounslow, and feeing a man and woman fitting down toge her, they walked towards them, to fee what they were doing; and, upon going up, they obferved it was a man dreffed in an old, fhabby foldier's red jacket, and a tall lufty woman in a red cloak, without ftockings; and the man, they made particular remark, was

fon of Richard G efq. of Norton-hall, co.
Stafford, by Lucy his wife, daughter of
the late Wm. flerrick, efq. of Beau Mi-
nor, co. Leicester. He was heir to a large
fortune, and cut off at an early period of
life, being only in the 31ft year of his age;
a period in which the world was fair be-
fore him, as he feemed to be above the
injuries of fortune or pains of sickness.
His amiable and benevolent difpofition
made him equally beloved and respected;
nor was ever any man more warmly and
tenderly attached to his friends.
His re-
mains were interred, Nov. 27, near those
of his late mother, in Woodhoufe chapel,
co. Leicester.

and black thread. To corroborate these circumstances, there was found near the fpot where the body of the deceased was difcovered, a pair of old fhoes, having the appearance of being worn by a woman, and alfo to have been worn without ftockings; and an old coarfe hat, which had been cut in feveral pieces, having the ap pearance of a foldier's hat, and in the lining of which was a needle and fome black thread. From thefe circumstances, a ftrong fufpicion arifes that the perfons who committed the murder were the perfons remarked by Mr. and Mrs. Bullock; and an immediate defcription was fert off by Sir Richard to the different principal towns to the Weftward, in which direction it was fufpected the parties went; and large printed bills to the fame effect have been published and diftributed, hy Sir Richard's directions, to all parts of the kingdom, as it is believed the man afterwards put on the deceafed's hat, and the woman his stockings and half-boots. The only propery taken from the deceafed, as near as can be afcertained, was a fmall fum of money, not amounting to a guinea, which, he faid, at the time he left his houfe, was fufficient to take him to London; and which, of course, will not enable the offenders to escape from the country. Several perfons have fince been apprehended, in various parts of the country, on fufpicion; but difcharged, nothing appearing to criminate them. Mr. Steel's remains were interred in Bunbill fields burial-ground on the 13th. He was about 32 years of age; and Mrs. S. is 22.

Previous to his death he had put the twelfth number to the prefs, which finishes the fecond volume. In this work he was affifted by fome military characters of eminence in Ireland; and, from the encouragement it met with, and the materials in his pofleffion, there is little doubt but it would have been a valuable addition to the library of military men, and lucrative to him. He has left a wife and family to regret the lofs of a worthy and deferving character, who, by industry and attention, was raifing himself to eminence and independence.

Their fituation was found as above deftribed, with the additional calamity of ficknels, Mrs. A. be ing dangeronfly ill, without attendance or fupport; a phyfician was called in, but too late. The unfortunate woman expired in a few days, in a moft deplorable itate, both of body and mind, and must have been buried by the parith, had not the committee undertaken the expence. The hildren are at prefent under the protec-, tion of the fociety of fchoolmafters, and a fubfcription is foliciting for their relief, not without the hope that a patron has effered for one of the four fons, aged ró, and that another, aged 15, may be qualified to take up his father's profeflion.

Unfortunately, the fervant did not properly confider the Major's ferious situation. Poffeffing no apprehenfion herself, the was not once troubled with the reflection that this unfortunate gentleman was fuffering under a high delirium, arifing from the great degree of fever he must have been in, and therefore quitted him, for the night, to his own unhappy meditations.
