Mr. Tho. Rogers, jun. banker at Newington-green. 16. In George-ftreet, Hanover-fquare, Tho. Chowne, efq. of Sutfex, F.A.S. At her houfe in St. James's Place, in her 88th year, Mrs. Delany, widow of Dr. D. dean of Down, in Ireland, well known by his own writings and thofe of Dean Swift.She was niece to Geo. Granville Lord Lanfdown; and was remarkable for the neatness and elegance of her cut paper work. Notwith ftanding the brought a confiderable fortune to the Doctor, the found hertelf reduced, by the revolutions of fortune, to live as a companion with the late Duchefs dowager of Portland. By fome unaccountable inattention the was omitted in her Grace's will, and her profpe&s, in advancing age, were again obfcured: but living in the neighbourhood of Windfor, her ftory reached the ears of his Majesty, who settled on her a handfome annuity out of his own privy purfe, and allotted ber her apartments; by which he enjoyed the comforts of life, and the refpect due to her talento, to the laft.-Her character is drawn in a very amiable light in Swift's "Literary Correípondence;" and it was in confequence of her marriage that Swift wrote that humourous ballad, which is now become almost technical in the nursery, of “O my kitten, kitten, and oh! my kitten, my deary.”We are happy to correct the above account, by adding that there was no period of Mrs. D's life, in which her income was not com- petent to all the purposes of an elegant retirement; and, if it had been deficient, fhe was aunt to three gentlemen of very amiable character, who, at the Dutchefs of Portland's death, were all in affluent circumftances. Beloved and honoured by them, it was not poffible the fhould ever have known the miferies of a friendlefs and penurious old age. Mrs. D's late brother, Mr. Granville, of Calwick in Staffordshire (a gentleman of large eftate, in which he is fucceeded by one of thofe aboveriamed nephews who has taken the name), was too juftly tenacious of the dignity of his family (which is that of Pope's Lord Lanfdown), to have feen his fifter the humble companion to the Duchess of Portland. She was the chofen friend of that lady, who thought herself the obliged by Mrs D. living with her. Befides the houfe at Windfor, fo nobly presented to her by her Sovereign, Mrs. D. had an handsome houfe in St. James's Place, in which the refided fome part of every year. The royal bounty, about 2001. a year, could not have been the fole, or indeed a third part of the fupport of fuch an establishment. His Majefty's goodness to this ever ingenious, venerable being, was, therefore, not charity-it was generofity, which, in every station of life, from the throne down to private opulence, prompts exalted minds to do more than their duty. 17. At his apartments in the Inner Temple, aged 74, Rev. John Boys, vicar of Redbourn, Herts, to which he was presented by the late Lord Grimston, 1746.
