A. Stothard, esq. F. A. S. He was making tracings from stained glass in the church window, when the step of the ladder giving way, his head came in contact with the monument of a Knight Templar, which probably produced a concussion of the brain, that immediately deprived him of life. The untimely fate of this elegant Artist and able Antiquary has excited general commiseration. A faithful account of him shall appear in our supplement.[Text may be taken from a different source or edition than that listed as the source by Somers Cocks.]
