Detail  ABROAD. Died in Sept. 1830, in the island of St Helena, Mrs. Elizabeth Honoria Frances Lambe (widow of Serg. Lambe, of the artillery of the island,) at the age of 110. In 1731 she was housekeeper to Governor Pyke, during his second government, and remembered having heard that Sir Richard Munden stormed the fort that now bears his name. Twenty-one personages have filled the seat of Governor of the island during her life time. She was eight times married, and had numerous generations, (260 of whom are now alive,) and died an example of true piety.
