old miser. We subjoin the following statement of her death, t,af
a list of persons benefitted thereby :—lnfirmity seemed ral3l"-,
coming upon her, and she was induced to have a distant relati° fte
Alfred Richardson, a man with a large family, to look after th,
house, which was now kept more cleanly; but a clean house is poor substitute for an empty stomach, and she continued to dea
herself that sustenance which her feeble and almost bedridden state
so urgently demanded. Every attention was paid to her by Mr. le:
pets, of Dartford; but the most earnest entreaties of that ge3",.., man could not persuade her to alter her course of life ; and 9."
expired, without pity or regret, at the age of 68 years, and her ill?:
poverished bones were laid in the family vault at Ash Chure".:
There was just room left for her coffin ; and she is the last of her
family bearing the name of Lock. Thus has the tomb closed upon
the ashes of a being who sustained fifty years of human sufferingand the bitterest privations, for the single purpose of at lent
dying that wiser persons may enjoy the wealth which, if it had ba'
properly applied by herself, might have converted into a parad-l'e
that earth which, according to her mode of living, must have 10,
