Saturday 27 Jul 1844 (p. 2, col. 7-8) GRETNA GREEN.—On Thursday week Lieut. LEESON, nephew of Lord Miltown, and youngest son of the late Hon. Mr. LEESON, of the Thorn, near Penrith, Cumberland, and who is on leave of absence from his regiment, which is in the East Indies, eloped to Gretna Green, that far-famed temple of Hymen, with Miss Laura BRISTOW, one of the daughters of Mr. John Charles BRISTOW, of Eusemere-hill, Ullswater, Westmoreland. They will shortly set sail for India. WILL OF THE EARL OF LONSDALE.—The will of the late Earl of Lonsdale has just been proved in Doctors' Commons, by the right Hon. William Earl of Lonsdale, the Hon. Henry Cecil LOWTHER (sons of the deceased) and Sir John BECKETT, Bart. The deceased gives a very large portion of his property to his wife (who died in his lifetime). To his cousin, Mary Francis THOMPSON, £10,000; but by his codicil he revokes this legacy, and gives her an annuity of £1,000 per annum instead. To his friend the Hon. G. O'CALLAGHAN, £2,000. By the Codicil, to his son Cecil and family (in addition to the benefit they receive by the will) £30,000. His lordship observes, "My domestics and servants are so no numerous that it would be next to impossible to name them separately;” and desires his executors to compensate them, leaving the amounts to their discretion. He desires to be buried at Lowther, in a "private manner." The will is very long, and dated in 1836. The personal property is sworn under the large sum of £100,000.
