Mr.. CourIney's first wife was the daugh-
ter of Sir Clement Lewis, and on her de-
cease, her only child removed to the resi-
dence of her maternal grandparents, who
educated HIM with his two cousins Au-
brey and Adelaide Beauclerk, TO whom
MIR. Courtney was appointed guardian
Jointly with the Baronet, by their fathers
will. Before the commencement of the
Revolution Mr. Courtney was a second
time widower. Edward and Emma had
