After her father's death she deposited some sealed packets in the library at Weimar, which were removed by her in 1809, but returned in 1812, and remained there until 1832, when they were given to Miss Payne, who had proved that she was entitled to them. Emily Gore's will, dated at Leghorn 14 July, 1831, and proved 21 July, 1832, expressed her wish to be buried in the English burial- ground at Leghorn. She bequeathed 4,000. to her nephew Francis Leopold, Earl Cowper. George Benjamin Barnard, of the house of the late Baron Dimsdale, was her residuary legatee and executor, and she left him the specific sum of 1,OOOJ. The youngest daughter, as already stated, mar- ried Earl Cowper. W. P. COURTNEY.
