another part of the Church-yard. John Gemmel!, Sr
Joseph's man-servant, was delivered up to his lathe'?

which renders the calamity in the case of this Gentle.
man's domestics particularly painful. The two surviving
male servants of Sir Joseph, who, with their maser,
performed the last mournful duty to their deceased
companions, were to have been married to two of the
females on their return home. The descriptions of a
number of people supposed to have been on bum d have
