The Sun. — 1829-10-12 (London, England)

CORONER—Did you hear any high words or dis. pute between the deceased and his sisters ? ness—None whatever.  Mr. Henry Parkin, of Kensington, surgeon, was well acquainted with the deceased, and had attended the family professionally. He had always considered the deceased to be flighty, but more particularly so for the last two years since his father died. The deceased's sister informed him that on Thursday he sat down to the table with them to dinner, but, refused to eat, when they remonstrated with him, upon which he suddenly left the room, and did not return.  The C'rrArrorAN said, in rising to propose the health of their Noble and distinguished guest— (Hear, hear)—who had that day honoured them with his presence, he felt utterly at a loss for words to designate the patriot and public friend of Ireland, who had thrown his weight into the balance of public spirit—the enlightened Nobleman--the upright, independent and honest magistrate— (Cheers)—the amiable country gentleman, the kind and indulgent landlord, the senator who shewed spirited example in the cause of civil and religious liberty, not content with giving his annual vote on the great question, but his efficient support both in and out of Parliament to forward it until his exertions were crowned with success—(Cheers)—need he call their attention to his talented advocacy in the cause of the Forty-shilling Freeholders—(lmmense cheering)—who because they dared to think and act conscientiously, for that crime alone were extinguished—he would give their distinguished guest the Lord Viscount Duneannon, the earnest and uncompromising advocate of the rights and liberties of the people.—(Vehement cheering.) After the applause which continued for some time had subsided, His LORDSHIP rose under stropg feelings of emotion, and said, for the honour conferred on him by the respectable and numerous assemblage of gentlemen by whom he was surrounded, he could not but express his deep, his heartfelt acknowledgments. Since last he had the honour of meeting them on the occasion of petitioning for a repeal of the odious grievances which had oppressed them, important events had occurred—although not doubting that at some distant period, the united efforts of his Catholic countrymen would ultimately succeed, he confessed he was not then so sanguine, as to hope that the question which for half a century had agitated and almost convulsed the empire, should have been in the short spac4 of six months set at rest—and for ever.—(Great cheefing.)—This had been undoubtedly owing to the united energies of the Catholics of Ireland—(Cheers)—and he would be guilty, indeed, of great ingratitude, if he did not embrace that public opportunity of expressing how mush he felt indebted to the Duke of Wellington, for carrying a measure, which, he believed unfeignedly, both from the peculiar situation of the country, and the state of Parliament at the period, that the Duke of Wel Mr. Silver, the Foreman of the Jury, asked the witness if he did not consider the deceased's mind to be affected in consequence of his close application to studying the Bible ? Mr. Parkin—Probably so, but I should think his malady existed previously ; he has read very extensively, both medical and theological works; and at the time Lord Castlereagh committed suicide, the unfortunate gentleman remarked that his Lordship must have been a clever anatomist to discover the carotid artery so cleverly, and I have heard him contend that a person was perfectly justified in destroying himself, and that there were passages in the' Bible that would bear him out. _
