Early on Monday morning last, after a short but severe
illness of five days, died at his lodgings in Broad-Street,
in the 22d year of his age, Capt. James Calderwood, of his
Majesty's 26th regiment. 
. . . [50 lines describing background and character]
And check the rising thought,
Nor dare presumptuous more to wish him back,
From where perfection to the good extends,
Her liberal hand, and points him out for bliss:
. . . [7 more lines, also 2 paragraphs concerning burial,
including] His remains were on the day following, attended
to the English Church yard, with military honours, by the
26th regt. . .
