* Joseph Docwra the younger, late of Kelvedon, Esx., died at Southampton, at which place he and his wife had sojourned for the benefit of his health. On the early approach of his disorder- which was of a pulmonary kind - he gave up the greater part of the business in which he had been actively engaged; and was enabled to withdraw his mind so much from it, that he adverted to the acquirements of property, he did so as involving a serious responsibility; and earnestly desired to make a right disposition of that which he possessed.. He entertained a very humble view of himself as regarded the future, and feelingly expressed that he had not even a "feather's weight of merit" of his own - that his hope was alone on the Saviour as his Redeemer. His remains were interred in the Friends' Burial Ground at Kelvedon, 14 12mo 1837.

NOTE: Quaker dates use the month number followed by mo or m for the month, rather than Jan, Feb, Mar etc. so for 1mo read January, 2mo read February, etc.
