With this year ends the file of the _Norwich Mercury_, which was preserved by the late Robert Palmer-Kemp, Esq., that gentleman dying at his seat, Coltishall Manor (which was devised to him by his grandfather, William Danby-Palmer, Esq.), on 11th May, 1873. Mr. Kemp was for many years an active County Magistrate; and in the earlier part of his life, prior to leaving Yarmouth, took part, with his half-brother, Major Samuel Charles Marsh, and other members of his family, in our local politics; later on, however (although in the Commission of the Peace for our borough) he rarely visited his native town. Leaving no issue, he devised his estates to his cousin, George William Danby-Palmer, Esq. (who subsequently a.s.sumed the name of Kerrison, under the provisions of the will of the late Charles Kerrison, Esq.), and that gentleman still holds the Coltishall property.
