bers into the Commons House of Parliament . To what extent his views of reform were carried , or what modification they may have undergone in the long period duriug which the question has been under discussion , I have not the means of judging ; but the same principle which urged him to support pojmlar interests , since , by so doing , he
would best support the balance of the constitution , would have induced him equally to maintain the just rights of the Throne , had he seen them invaded . And
when the country armed in its defence in the year 1803 , Mr . Shore appeared in the novel character of a military officer , and raised a company of volunteers , chiefly from amongst his own tenantry and dependants , whose services were accepted by the Crown .
Activity of body , no less than activity and energy of mind , belonged to Mr . Shore . He enjoyed through his long life an enviable state of health , and that evenness and elasticity of spirits which

about to experience ; but the fortitude she evinced , and the calmness with which she looked forward to her great change , were well calculated to mitigate in part their sorrow , from the feeling they inspired that she was fully prepared to meet her God . Death , indeed , in her case , seemed to be swallowed up in victory ; and truly edifying was the proof
she gave by her placid confidence and devout aspirations , that , whatever some may think , or pretend to think , of the inefficacy of Unitarian sentiments in the prospect of dissolution , there is belonging to them a consoling influence and dignified character in a dying hour , and that those who really have lived by the rules of the Unitarian creed , may die with magnanimity while relying on its hopes .
