THE LAST OF THE OLD SQUIRES.
A Sketch. By CEDRIC OLDACRE, Esq., of Bax-Norinan •
bury, sometime of Christ Church, Ozon.

undertaken to perpetuate the noblest features of a race which is
rapidly passing away, and that a suitable memorial should have

is well worth studying; fraught with lessons of piety and virtue,
active benevolence, and true wisdom."—Morning Post.
