>From Sun ( London, England ), Thursday, December 18, 1794; Issue 694. COUNTRY NEWS. Leeds, Dec.15. Thursday the 20th ult. died at Kimberworth, near Rotherham, Mr. Matthew STEEL, a respectable farmer and publican. At the time the writer of this paid a visit to him, about nine years ago, he weighed thirty-five stone. The manner of his feeding was as extraordinary as his bulk. In his youth he received a stab in his side, after the recovery of which he began to feed, and continued to do so till he attained the weight above-mentioned. He was a man of an amiable disposition, and a cheerful companion; and was in the 67th year of his age. A neighbouring Gentleman having a law-suit a few years ago, requested permission to examine Mr. STEEL's writings, which proved that the family had been inhabitants of the above village upwards of 800 years.
