Governor WALL, buried January, 1802.* * At the end of January, 1802, the mortal remains of Governor Wall were interred in the churchyard of St. Pancras. No stone marks the resting-place of this unfortunate man, who was tried at the Old Bailey on January 20, 1802, and found guilty of the murder of Benjamin Armstrong, by having inflicted upon him 800 lashes with a rope, at the garrison at Gorree, upon the coast of Africa, July, 1782. He was apprehended under a warrant from the Privy Council, in 1784, and was sent to Reading Goal, from which he escaped, and fled to the Continent. He remained in exile for twenty years, occasionally visiting this country. He came finally to England in 1797. In January, 1802, he wrote to the Secretary of State to say he was ready to give himself up if he should send for him. He was apprehended in Upper Thornleigh Street, Bedford Square, where he lived under the name of Thompson. When Wall ascended the scaffold, accompanied by the Rev. Ordinary, there arose three successive shouts from an innumerable populace, the brutal but determined effusion of one common sentiment, for the public indignation had never been so high for very many years. The body, after being dissected at a building in Cowcross Street, was consigned to his relatives upon the payment of fifty guineas to the Philanthropic Society.
