	Detail	At the house of Henry Peters, esq. in Park-street, Grosvenor-square, William Adair Jackson, esq. one of the directors of the East India Company, to which situation he was chosen when about 30 years of age, and took a most active part in their affairs till a declining state of health prevented his exertions; indeed, few men so young were so capable, or possessed such extensive knowledge. His manners were uncommonly prepossessing; and no one excelled him in the most valuable qualities of the heart. His remains were interred in the family-vault in Bunhill-fields, attended by a great number of his private friends.
