Ile also made this singular bequest, " I have left one thousand pounds to wage legal war with the Lord Bishop of Limerick, if he won't restore a glebe of 72 acres on demand, having made a lease of it, as I was entitled to do, for 21 years." He died on the road-side in the course of one of his lengthened pedestrian excursions ; and his strong box, or iron chest, was broken open by some parties who had it in trust, and who thus cut off all means of recovering a great part of his wealth, which was supposed to be in the funds under a feigned name. 1818.
