DIED. Last Tuesday evening, at his seat at Doneraile, co. Cork, most
sincerely lamented, the Right Honourable Lord Viscount Doneraile. His
death was occasioned by the bursting of a blood vessel. He was a
Nobleman steady and sincere in his friendships, unbounded in
hospitality, and his good nature endeared him to all his acquaintance;
he was adored by his domestics as the kindest of masters- from his
great indulgence to a numerous tenantry, and readiness to alleviate
the wants of the poor around him, we may justly say his feelings were
always awake to the noblest dictates of the mind- relieving the
distressd. He is succeeded in his title and estate by the Hon. Hayes
St. Leger (now Lord Viscount Doneraile, his eldest son.
