DEATH FROM CBgs1TY.-The death
Of singular character took place at
the City Hospital On Tuesday last. 1t
was that Of a oolored man, about Al
years of age, named Richard Homes.
lie was excessively fat, and weighing
between 800 ana 400 pounds. He
measured 10 inches from his back
through to his breast, and other por-
tons of his body in equal proportions.
So excessively and disproportionately
large was he, that for about IA years
he has clothed himself, for convenience
sake, in female apparel, which he wore
to the day Of his death. Some two or
three months since, becoming nearly
helpless, he was removed TO the City
Hospital. @-
The unfortunate man was found dead
in his chair, with his arm thrown over
the foot rail of his bed.
The skin of the unexposed parts of
the body, especially the lower limbs,
was hard and corrugated, like that Of
an elephant. BE was a wonder and
an enigma to ali who had ever seen
