the nephew of that gallant and distinguished
General Sir John Moore who fell at Corunna. The
testator, who executed his will in February last,
with a codicil in August following, died on the
23d October, at the age of 67. These documents,
though but of moderate length, contain many be-
quests to relatives, officers in the army and navy,
their wives and widows, amounting to about
£10,000; also legacies to his domestics, and an an-
nuity of £lOO to his servant, John Donald. The
testator has also bequeathed to the National Gallery
11 pictures by the old masters. His real estate,
together with the residue of the personalty, he
leaves to his cousin and executor Captain John
Moore, R.N.

The will of Brodie M‘Glhie Willcox, Esq., late
M.P. for Southampton, of Portman-square, London,
and Roydon Lodge, Ware, Herts, was proved in
London on the Ist inst., the executors appointed
being his relict, together with his son, Brodie A.
Willcox ; James Allan, Joseph A. M'Leod, and Cal-
vert Toulmin, Esqrs. The personalty was sworn
under £120,000. The testator, who was an eminent
shipowner, held many prominent appointments con-
nected with mercantile pursuits, was chairman of
the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Company, a di-
rector of the Southampton Docks, and an East In-

in Parliament from the period of 1847 to the time of
his death, which occurred on Nov. 8 last, aged 77.
The will bears date 1857, with two codicils, 1861-2
though of considerable length, the dispositions are
entirely of a family nature. To his relict he
leaves all his household furniture and plate (except
presentation plate), carriages, and other effects
absolutely, and a life interest in his real and per-
sonal estate, which upon her decease is to be
equally divfled between his son and daughters,
to each of whom he has left an immediate legacy of
£2,000. There is one bequest which it may be in-
teresting to notice—it is a silver centre ornament,
richly embellished with emblematical devices,
weighing 771 oz. This costly piece of plate was
presented to the testator by the Peninsular and
Oriental Steam Company, and is directed by the
will to be held by his son for life, and upon his
decease to descend to the eldest son then living of
his (testator's) son-in-law, Pedro Jose de Zulueta,
Count Torre Diaz, the husband of the testator's
eldest daughter.

Mapperly Hall, near Nottingham, has just been

bequeathing legacies to his younger children, he
has given the residue of his personal estate to his
eldest son, Ichabod Charles Wright, Esq., M. A.,
and has devised to him his estates in Nottingham-
