The late Mr. Jonas Webb, 1862. English farmer and livestock breeder. The fine athletic form and the pleasant face and greeting marked the man and his character at once. He had long since won his position, and, having done so, he liked better to look on than to take any very active part in public. His chairmanships of companies entailed some duties upon him; but if he had a noisy meeting to manage he let things and speakers go much their own way, and yet if he had to speak he would say five words, and to the point, where others were saying twenty beside it. In short, his fine common sense, inexhaustible luck, good management, and rare eye for form made him a man of mark in life among a very keensighted and hardheaded generation; and his kind heart and home sympathies were true to him in death. He was buried at Babraham, on Friday, in the same family vault which had received, only five days before, the remains of his wife, whose loss had quite broken his heart¡K.
