OBITUARY.

THE DUKE OF Leeds, K.G. July 10. In London, aged nearly 63, the Most Noble George William Frederick Osborne, sixth Duke of Leeds (1694), Marquis of Carmarthen (1689), Earl of Danby, co. York (1674), Viscount Latimer, of Danby, and Baron Osborne, of Kiveton, co. York (1673), Baron Conyers, of Hornby Castle (by writ, 1509), all titles in the English peerage; fifth Viscount Osborne, of Dunblane, co. Perth (1675), and the sixth Baronet, of Kiveton, co. York (1620); a Knight of the Garter; a Privy Councillor, Lord Lieutenant of the North Riding of York, Governor of the island of Scilly, Ranger of Richmond Forest, Constable of Middleham Castle, &c. &c.

His Grace was born July 21, 1775, the elder son of Francis- Godolphin the fifth Duke, by his first wife the Rt. Hon. Lady Amelia D'Arcy, Baroness Conyers, only daughter and heiress of Robert fourth and last Earl of Holdernesse. His mother (whose marriage was dissolved by act of parliament in 1779) died during his minority, Jan. 26, 1784'; and on his coming of age, he presented a petition to the House of Lords, claiming the barony of Conyers in right of his maternal descent. On the 27th April, 1798, the House resolved and adjudged that the petitioner, George-William-Frederick Marquis of Carmarthen, had made out his claim to the title, honour, and dignity of Baron Conyers; and he immediately received his writ of summons accordingly. He never, however, took much interest in politics, and when a young man spent a considerable length of time in Italy. He usually gave his vote in Parliament with the Tory party.

On the 31st Jan. 1799 he succeeded his father in the dukedom, and in the same year he was appointed Lord Lieutenant of the North Riding of Yorkshire. On the 4th May 1827 he was appointed Master of the Horse, and on the 10th of the same month be was sworn a Privy Councillor. On the latter day also he was elected a Knight of the Order of the Garter. He resigned the office of Master of the Horse with the Duke of Wellington's administration in Nov. 1830. the ceremony of the Coronation of King William IV. Sept. 8, 1831, the Duke of Leeds was one of the four Knights of the Garter who held over the King's head the pall of gold at the ceremony of anointing.

right and honourable. It should be borne in mind that to the northern turf he was essentially devoted, for he seldom sent horses south of Doncaster. The influence of his character was great in the best sense of the word; for in his own neighbourhood he was truly "the fine old English gentleman," and sought not to be great from home.

In 1811 his Grace pulled down the ancient mansion-house at Kiveton, which up to that time had been the principal residence of the family, from the reign of James the First (see Hunter's History of South Yorkshire, vol. i. p. 142). It was quitted for the more magnificent castle of Hornby, in the same county, the seat of his mother's family, the Barons Conyers, and Earls of Holdernesse.

His Grace was present at the Coronation of the Queen, though his Duchess was prevented from attending by serious illness. He was taken ill only three days before his death. His body was interred, on the 16th of July, under Trinity Church, Osnaburgh-street, Regent's Park.

He married Aug. 17, 1797, Lady Charlotte Townshend, sixth daughter of George first Marquis Townshend, and aunt to the present Marquis; and had issue two sons and one daughter: 1. the Most Noble Francis-Godolphin-Darcy, now Duke of Leeds, born in 1798; 2. Lady Charlotte-Mary-Anne-Georgiana, married in 1826 to Sackville Lane Fox, esq. of Bramham Park, Yorkshire, and died in 1836; and 3. Lord Conyers George Thomas William Osborne, who was accidentally killed in a struggle with a young friend, when a member of Christ church, Oxford, Feb. 19, 1831.

The present Duke formerly sat in Parliament (as Marquis of Carmarthen) for Helston; but has not been a member of the House of Commons since the passing of the Reform Act. At the Coronation of her present Majesty he was (only a few days before his father's death) called up to the House of Peers in the barony of Osborne. He married April 24, 1828, Louisa Catharine, third daughter of Richard Caton, of Maryland, esq. widow of Sir Felton Elwell Bathurst Hervey, Bart. and sister to the Marchioness of Wellesley. By that lady he has no issue; and the present heir presumptive to the dukedom is Lord Godolphin, the late Duke's only brother.
