made a lieutenant in 1782; and commanded the Sardine sloop, on the Mediterranean station, in 1796. From Mar. 1798 until the peace of Amiens, he held an appointment in the Suffolk district of Sea-Fencibles. In the years 1806 and 1807, he commanded the Howe store-ship, and was successively employed at the Cape of Good Hope and in South America. In the summer of 1809, we find him appointed to the Princess, receiving ship at Liverpool; and about a year afterwards, the following paragraph appeared in the Naval Chronicle:

In consequence, we believe, of this sentence, the Princess was immediately placed under the command of another officer, whose predecessor does not appear to have been again employed afloat. He, however, obtained the out-pension of Greenwich Hospital, in Dec. 1814. His son, Lieutenant John Arthur Killwick, R.N. had the honor of presenting an address to King George IV., from the borough of Southwold, at a levee held on the 23d Feb. 1821.
