Biackrock, Cork, which only increased as years went
on, and few men, as I well recollect, received such
constant and unfeigned marks of respect from high
and low as the old "Counsellor."
^Ilie brief account of his character on the memorial
tablet in the chancel of St Michael's Church, Hlack-
rock, Cork, is as follows :— " A sincere Christian and
a most benevolent man ; with all his high intellectual
acquirements he possessed the humility of a child. lie
expired surrounded by his family, showing forth in hia
last moments a bright example of the death of the
righteous."
He married in 1817 Anne, daughter of Peter
Morgan of Bridestown, Co. Cork, by whom he had five
sons and one daughter, and died on the last day of
1870 in his 82nd year.
