London, Sept. 16.  On Monday morning last died Mr. William
Babel at Cambery House near Islington: Scarce ever was any
man, as we are informed, more famous for the harpsicord than
himself:  He hath wrote instructions for that musical
instrument in three languages, which have gain'd him
applause in many parts of Europe :  He belong'd to the
Kings-Chapel, and was organist at Allhallows, Bread street.
(Daily Post Sept. 26.)
