Mr. Icely was by no means an orator, but his clear perception of facts, sound judgement, even temper, and inflexible integrity made his co-operation as a legislator precisely the same value as his important service as a magistrate. About the year 1829 he married Miss Rothery, who dying in 1833, left him with three children — Thomas, Charles, and a daughter — married to Captain Henry Genys R.N. Mr. Icely married secondly Miss Bartlett, by whom he had a third son (who predeceased him) and a daughter who survives. Out of respect to the deceased gentleman, the Legislative Council adjourned its sitting on the 18th February.
