THE LATE "FINE OLD ENGLISH GENTLEMAN,"
OF LULIVORTH CASTLE.—The following additional
particulars in regard to the obsequies of the late venerable
Squire of Lulworth Castle, Dorsetshire, have been forwarded
to us by a correspondent :—Mr. Joseph Weld, born 1777,
died October 19, 1863, was son of Thomas Weld, founder
of Stonyhurst College, Lancashire. The funeral took place
at the public chapel at Lulworth Castle, on the 27th, at 10
a.m. The previous Monday the body was carried at 9a m.
from the room in the castle where it had lain, the clergy
and family alone being present. During the day the
Catholic congregation relieved one another, and offered
prayers for the repose of the good squire's Bout, according
to the old custom of the Catholic Church. In the evening,
at 4 p.m., a solemn dirge was performed. The choir was
led by the Rev. Messrs. Magini and Walsh, assisted by Mr.
Fisher, organist and schoolmaster, and the choir of the
congregation. The Rev. Dr, William Vaughan, styled
Bishop of Plymouth in the Catholic hierarchy, officiated,
assisted by his clergy. There were present of the clergy of
the diocess the Very Rev. Canon Parke, the Revs..Magirnt
Walsh, Mount, Graham, and Charles, and of other diocesses
the Right Rev. Dr. Clifford, styled Bishop of Clifton, the
Very Rev. Monseigneur Weld, nephew of the deceased, and
the Rev. Fathers Gallway, Hood, and Holden ; also the
Chaplain now of Lulworth Castle, the Rev. Wm. Strickland.
9n Tuesday morning, at 10 a.m., the solemn burial service
commenced, and all was carried on fully according to the
ancient ritual of the Catholic Church, holy water and
incense being used, which, if they appeared strange and
new to Protestant assistants, at least recalled the ritual
established by God himself in the old law—if then goods
why evil now? The mourners were Lord Clifford of
Chudleigh ; Hon. Charles Langdale, brother of Hon. Mrs.
Weld, of Lulworth; widow of deceased ; Charles Weld,
Esq., of Chidlock ; Sir Bouchier Wray, father of the pre-'
sent Mrs. Weld, of Lulworth Also the three sons of the
deceased—Edward, the eldest, who succeeds; Thomas,
now Weld-Blundell, of Ince, in Lancashire; and Joseph,
the youngest. Also his son-in-law, Colonel Vaughan, 0f
Courtfield. Amongst the congregation were Major-General
Crispin and Captain Buller, with several other friends, and
Mr. Emson, or Dorchester, the medical attendant at the
castle. The body was borne by the labourers of the castle,
and the pall by the steward, bailiff, and six of the principal
tenants of the estate, who volunteered their services. Til°
Right Rev. Dr. Vaughan, who is also a nephew of the
deceased, officiated at the whole of the ceremonies,
assisted
by the deacon and subdeacon, and accompanied by his rela-
tives, Bishop Clifford, of Clifton, and Monseigneur Weld.
