| Surname | Manage | | First name | Charles | | Title | Esq | | Year | 1803 | | Month | May | | Location | Trincomalee  | | Volume | 11 | | Page No | 160 | | Full Text | Off Trincomalee, in the East Indies, while on a voyage for the recovery of his health, Charles Manage, Esq. a youth of most promising abilities, who held a respectable civil appointment in the island of Ceylon. His zeal having prompted him to volunteer his service to conduct a number of coolies to the British army before Candy, he caught an epidemical disorder, called the jungle fever, which after apparently yielding to the power of medicine, returned again, and carried him off in the 21st year of his age. His remains are deposited in the garrison church-yard of Trincomalee. A gentleman high in office, who had the best opportunity of knowing his worth, has declared the Mr. Manage's death not only deprives his family and his friends of one who would have done them honour, but that government has lost by it a young man of most uncommon talents, great quickness and facility in every pursuit which he undertook, and who wanted nothing to have been a most invaluable servant but what years and experience would have given him. |
