DEATH OF F. V. LEE, ESQ.—We deeply regret to
learn that F. Valentine Lee, Esq., the eminent barrister,
of the Oxford circuit, is no more. The learned gen-
tleman expired near Tenhury on Monday morning, having
been found that day lying senseless in a field. He had
been out shooting. This melancholy intelligence will
be received by the legal profession generally with feel-
ings of profound regret; and by none will the loss of so
bright an ornament to the bar be more sincerely deplored
than by the members of the profession practising in Wor-
cestershire. Mr. Lee. we believe, was a native of Kidder-
minster.
