DIED.

At the house of her daughter, IS, Vine-street, aged 73, Mrs. Marion
Bain Kay, wife of Lieutenant James Kay. They lived happily
together for •fifty,six years.
Lately, at the advanced age of 103, Mrs. Mary Jones, of Ynys
Thomas, Trawfynydd,lMerionethshire.
Lately, at Shaw-hill, near Halifax, in his 94th year, Jonathan Tate,
cloth-dresser. His usual hour of going to bed was nine, and his time
of rising, all the year round, five in the morning,when he commenced
the business of the day by immediately' taking to his breakfast three
pints of drink porridge ; after which his daily allowance was a lunch
of bread and cheese and a mug pot full of beer, at noon taking a
hearty dinner, and, at " drinking," a double allowance of beer and a
proportionate quantity of victuals, taking, as well, his regular" allow-
ance" in the shop, This system of diet he practised for upwards of
seventy.years, and until within a short period of his death,
On the Ist of January, Elizabeth, widow of the late Mr. 'Robert
Watkinson, farmer, of Intakes, near Guiseley. She was mother of
10 children, grandmother to 87, great-grandmother to 113, and great-
great-grandmother to 6. She had been a member of the Wesleyan
Society sixty-five years.
On the 18th of January. suddenly, of ossification of the heart, Cap-
tain John Gillespie, of the ship "Cheshire," forrnerly of the ship-
" Higginson." This is an awful instance of the'uncertainty of human
life. We understand that not more than ten minutes elapsed from the
time of Captain G's going into the sitting room of Mr. Maddock's•
residence, in Broad-street, to the moment when he was n corpse. The
remains of the deceased were followed the next day to the Cathedral
by a numerous company of mercantile gentlemen, commanders of ves-
sels, ana the seamen of Messrs. Barton, Irlam, and Higginson's ships.
All the merchant vessels in the bay had their colours half-mast; and
the union flag at. the Commercial Hall was half-staff. We noticed.
with much interest, a procession of thirteen boats,steered by the com-
manders of the London, Liverpool, and Bristol vessels, each with the
union flag, half-staff, in the bow, from the bay to the wharf.—Bar-
badian
