THE PEERAGE OF ENGLAND MOORE, LORD MOORE. [Marquis of Drogheda, in Ireland."] This noble family is of French extraction, from which kingdom they came very early after the Conquest into England ; and ac- quiring a good estate in the county of Kent, made the manor of Moore-Court their residence, until they removed to Moore-Place, in Benenden, in the said county, which they held for many gene- rations. Mr. John Philipot, Somerset Herald, who drew the pedigree of this family in l6l2, tells us, that their surname was assumed from the lands which they originally possessed at More- Place, in Rolvinden and Benenden, in Kent. But he should have said More-Court, in Iviechurch* in the same county. He begins with Thomas de la More, Esq. who held the manor of More-Place, whence the name was variously written De More, De la More, Atte-More, until the general relinquishing of such prepositions before names was practised, when it deter- mined also in this family, which was about the time of Henry VI. 2 They were seated here as early as King Henry IPs reign; and John de More de Iviechurch, was possessed of it in King Edward I's reign, as appears by a fine levied in the 9th year of it, between John, the son of Thomas de Iden, and the abovementioned John de More, by which the said John passes away land to John de More, of Rolvenden. Hasfed's Kent, III. 4.98. VOL. IX. B 2 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. This Thomas was living in the re:gn of Henry II. as is proved by a deed, wherein his grandson is styled John, the son of Henry, son of Thomas de More, whereby he purchased from John, the son of Thomas de Iden, a certain croft abutting upon his own lands; and this deed bears date at More-Place, on St. Vincent's day, 12S0, Q Edward I. Henry de Mors, his son afore-mentioned, as is proved by several deeds, had four sons; viz. First, John, his heir. Second, Thomas (who sold his lands to Henry Fitz-Geffery Coote; from him descended Matthew More, who held certain landi within the hundred of Blackburne, next to Rolvinden, by knight's service, and paid his aid for them 20 King Edward1 III. when the Black Prince was made a Knight, as appears by the records of the aid enrolled in the Exchequer.) b Third, Stephen (who disposed of his estate at Maplesden, m Kent, to his brother, Thomas.) Fourth, Charles. John de More, of More-Place, the elclesfson (in some deeds written Atte-More), died about 7 King Edward II. having pur- chased divers lands from Ralph Ramsden, with others in Benen- den, from his brother, Stephen, and married Matilda, daughter of William Falkinden,c by whom he had two sons; First, Thomas. Second, Scoland, who had lands confirmed to him by his uncle Charles. Thomas, who succeeded, by Joan his wife (who survived him,, and purchased lands 10 Edward III.) had John, his heir, who lived in the time of Edward III. and died seised of his paternal inheritance, leaving two sons; First, Thomas. And, Second, John, who by deed, dated on St. Mark's day, 46 Ed- ward III. were appointed feoffees in trust for the lands of Stephen Collett, lying in Sandhurst, next Benenden. Thomas de More, the elder son, marrying Catharine; the co- heiress of the family of Benenden, of Benenden ('whereof John de Benenden held a Knight's fee there 20- Edward III. and bore for his coat armour, Azure, a lobster, Or, which is now quartered b Lodge coll. c Which is proved by a deed of Stephen de Mrre, dated z King Edward II. whereby he confirms certain lands, he held in Benenden, to his brother, John, the said Matilda his wife>- Thomas and Scolaad their sons.

By her, who outlived him, he had two sons; First, William. Second, John. William, the elder, married Catherine, daughter and heir to Anthony Aucher, Esq. (branched from the ancient family of Aucher, of Losenham, in Newenden, not far from Rolvinden, where Sir Thomas Aucher, in the time of Henry III. founded a monastery for Carmelite friars; and these Auchers of Kent, were descended from the family at Copt-Hall, near Waltham Abbey, in Essex, where they had continued from the conquest of Eng- land)/ and had issue, First, Thomas, his heir. And, Second, John. Thomas married Agnes, daughter and heir of Robert Austen, and was father of William Moore, of Moore- Place, Esq. who married Mar- garet, daughter and coheir to John Brenchley, Esq. Lord of the manor of Benenden, by his wife, Margaret, daughter and heir to Richard Golding, 21 Henry VI. (of which family was Sir Wil- liam Brenchley ,e Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, and died in 1446, as she died in 1453, without issue), and with her he got the inheritance of Moat-Lands and Bettenham, in Kent. He lies buried in the church of Benenden, in Kent, with his father-in- law; as appears by this inscription in the chancel window on the north side: Orate pro animabus Johannis Brenchley et Willielmi More. Walter Moore, of Benenden, Esq. was his son, and reco- vered certain lands in Smallhide and Tenterden, which had been entailed upon the issue of his grandfather, Thomas, by Agnes d The last branch of this ancient family of Aucher, who were Baronets, and seated at Bishopsboume, near Canterbury, expired in the male line early in the last century. The sister and heir married Dr. Corbet, who left by her several coheirs. e Sir William married Joane de Benenden, coheir of John de Benenden ; on his death the manor of Benenden went to John de Brenchley abovememioned.

This Walter's will is recorded in the office of wills at Canterbury, and shews that he died in 1504, 1Q Henry VII. leaving by Alice his wife (who brought into the family lands in the parishes of Brokeland, Fayerfield, Brensett, and Snave, in Kent), two sons; First, Thomas, of Benenden, his heir. Second, William, who married Elizabeth, one of the three daughters and coheirs of William Betenham, Esq. with whom he had the ancient seat of Betenham, in the parish of Crane- brooke, where he resided, and was father of Nicholas Moore, of IVingmore, in Elham, who married Clara, daughter of John Toke, of Goddington and Great-Chart, in Kent, by Cicely, daugh- ter of Sir Thomas Kempe, Knt. and dying in 1556/ at Wing- more (4 Queen Mary), without issue, gave all his lands by will to the sons of his cousin, John Moore, of Pluckley. Thomas Moore, of Benenden, Esq. eldest son of Walter, made his will in 1519, 11 Henry VIII. which is recorded in the pre- rogative court of Canterbury, and proves that he had three sons ; First, John. Second, Edward. And, Third, Thomas, whose posterity settled in Norfolk. John, the eldest son, alienated More-Court to John Watts, 1st of Queen Mary.s He married Margaret,11 daughter, and at length heir to John Brent, Esq. widow of John Dering, of Sur- renden, in Pluckley, by whom he had one daughter, Anne, first/wife of Sir Henry Duke, of Castle- Jordan, in the county of Kildare, Knt. And six sons; viz. First, Owen, who went to Ireland, and died without issue. Second, Sir Edward, ancestor to the Marquis of Drogheda. f There is a memorial for him in Elham church, by which, according t» Hasted, it appears that he died at Wingmore, May Sth, 1577, aged fifty-nine.

For whom he further covenanted, that the chief governor might, from time to time, cut and carry away, at pleasure, all kinds of wood growing upon the premises, for such buil lings as they should appoint to be erected for the use of the Crown in that county ; that they should not make use of the Breaiune or Brchon La-w, in any cause whatsoever, against any subject responsible to the laws of Ireland; and that his sons, and able servants, should use, for the major part, the English tongue, habit, and government; and yearly repair before the constable of the castle of Philipstown, or in his absence, before the sheriff of the King's County, at the said castle, on the first day of September, and bring all the men under their go- vernment, from the age of 16 to 60, to be mustered, and answer for their respec- tive actions within the county for that year, &c. Sir Henry Sidney, in his instructions from Denbigh, 17th September, 1580, to his successor the L. D. Grey, how to proceed in his government, thus writes: " My Lord, I had forgotten three kinsmen of mine, Sir Edward More, Owen More, and Thomas More; one of them was my man, and now the Queen's; the other my Lord of Warwick's, and now a Knight; the third, my man still: 1 pray your Lordship let them know, that I forget them not." * He was afterwards knighted for his service against the Irish, by whom he was at length murdered in his castle of Castletown, and was succeeded there by his son, * Sidney Letters, I. zt>2. 0 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND.

His Lordship, 26th October, upon the first discovery of the rebellion, having notice of the imprisonment of his sister, Blayney, and her children, with the surprizal of her castle, the towns and castles of Newry, Carrickmacross, Charlemount, Monaghan, Tanderagee, Mountjoy, Cloghwoter, Dungannon, and many other places of strength in the North, he went from Mellefont to Drogheda, in the midst of the night, with his troop of sixty-six horse, very completely provided, and on his arrival summoning the mayor and aldermen, excited them to a speedy and vigorous preparation for their defence, who gave him indeed fair promises, but their actions being no way correspondent (not above forty men, very ill armed, being mustered by the town), he advertised the state, of the bad condition, and imminent danger the place was in; which it was not possible to preserve without further strength, both of horse and foot; for, should the enemy make any sudden approach, or attempt to surprize the town, he found such poor preparations for defence within, such apparent signs of dis- loyalty, and all things in so desperate a confusion, that, with his best endeavours, he should not be able to give a good account of the place.

His Lordship made another journey to Dublin, to be present at the second session of the parliament, which sat 4th November; and generously offered (seeing Sir Henry Tichburne's regiment was not sufficient to secure the town), to raise and clothe 600 men; to make fourteen independent companies at Drogheda a complete regiment, by which the whole county of Louth might possibly have been secured; but this offer was not accepted. However, his affections to the King, and detestation of the rebel- lion, were so fully discovered to the rebels, by these earnest and noble offers, that, taking the advantage of his absence, they sat down before his house of Mellefont, on Sunday, 24th November, with 1300 foot, intending to surprize it; which (after a very brave defence, so long as their powder lasted, from the few left to guard it, consisting only of twenty four musketeers and fifteen horsemen), was entered with great cruelty and slaughter of the foot, who yielded • on quarter (the horse vigorously charging through the enemy, got safe to Drogheda), and Colonel Coll Mac-Brian Mac-Mahon, with his soldiers, destroyed and carried away of goods and cattle to the amount of 20001. and killed twenty-eight of his Lordship's servants, the most of whom they would not suffer to be buried. The rebels, to the number of 1400, 30th November, besieged Drogheda, which they reduced to extreme distress; forcing them to subsist on the flesh of dogs, cats, and other animals; and 12th January, by the assistance of their Popish friends in the town, having made a breach in an obscure part of the wall, 500 of them 20 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. marched, at four o'clock in the morning, so far into the town, that thinking it their own, they alarmed the governor by a great shout, who running down stairs with his pistols in his hands, and being seasonably joined by the Lord Moore with fifteen horse, they put them to flight, with the loss of above 200, and some officers; which, with other successful sallies, so dispirited the Irish, that they drew off with great loss, before the Earl of Or- mond, who intending to raise the siege, marched out of Dublin. March 1st, with Sir John Borlace, in a sally he took the castle of Colpe; and 5th, routed his ungrateful tenants near Tullagh- allan, on the north side of Drogheda, with the slaughter of seven officers, and near 400 soldiers; taking prisoners, Captain Rory Mac-Arte Mac-Cross Mac-Mahon, and Barnewall, of Ratheskett, with good store of arms, whereby the siege of Drogheda was raised, and the garrison was at leisure to visit the enemy's quar- ters; in this action he exposed his person to great danger, and being known, was surrounded by about 200 of the enemy, who endeavoured to seize him, crying out, This is my Lord Moore, when he had but seven horse in his company, the rest being en- gaged at a distance; yet he retreated not, but charging them, many were killed, and the rest scattered. On the taking of Dundalk soon after (in which he had a share), Sir Henry Tichburne was left with a sufficient force to preserve it, and the present government of Drogheda was com- mitted to his Lordship; at which time the Earl of Ormond, in a council of war, resolved to prosecute the rebels; but that Lord being summoned to Dublin on affairs of great importance, the work fell wholly on the Lord Moore and the Governor, who were recruited with four companies of 1000 foot, two troops of 200 horse, and two pieces of battery; so that 21st March he burned the country about Slane; entered Ardee the 23d, with the slaugh- ter of about 400 Irish, his Lordship doing much execution with his own hand; and being certified that 1300 rebels were fortify- ing the town of Navan, he marched the 25th, early in the morn- ing, with 200 horse, some dragoons and musqueteers, drew up within half pistol shot of the gates, killed twenty men, fired the country, and returned with a large supply of cows, and 600 sheep.

BUTLER, LORD BUTLER. [Earl of Ormond, in Ireland."] The original descent of this illustrious family is diversely de- duced by genealogists/ but we shall begin with Herveius, who a « We are told, that Mr. Roberts, Ulster King of Arms, in Ireland, took a great deal of pains in compiling a Genealogical History of the family of Ormond, wherein he labours to prove, that the name of the family was originally Walter, or Water; and in support of this, he brings a great number of instances, from which it appears, that Theobald, after he was Butler of Ireland, subscribed Theo- bald Walter, to charters of King John; and he likewise shews, that his descend- ants preserved the surname of Walter, down to the time of James, the first Earl of Ormond, who styled himself, Jacobus Walter Pincerna Hibern'ue. We are, likewise, told in support of this notion, that Walter is also a name of office, and that it signifies the ruler over any of the King's forests; and this upon the au- thority of Richard Verstegan: but as that writer is not very correct, I am apt to think he is a little mistaken here, and that the office he means was styled, not Walter, but Waldtgrave; and that Walter is a contraction or corruption of Wald- theerj i. e. the lord or owner of a wood, answering to the word Sylvester, Syl- vius; so that taking this all together, it is not at all improbable, that the father of Theobald might use this surname. Sir Robert Rothe, who put the last hand to another very laborious account of the descent of this noble family, which was written by his father, a Barrister at Law, and Counsel to Thomas, Earl of Or- mond, in Queen Elizabeth's time, declares expressly for the surname of Becket, and will have Theobald, Butler of Ireland, to be the son of Walter Fitz-Gilbert, i. e. son of Gilbert Becket; and many writers concur in deriving this family from Walter Becket, a younger brother of Thomas, Archbishop of Canterbury. That the Earls of Ormond were descended some way or other from the family of Becket, is asserted in an act of parliament ; but this does not prove the surname of the family was Becket, since they might be descended as well by marriage; which notion may be supported from two pedigrees, wherein it is so laid down: %ut as these pedigrees are inconsistent with each other, so the Rev. Mr. Carte LORD BUTLER. 59 is unquestionably proved by Sir James Ware, and William Ro- berts, Esq. Ulster King of Arms in the reign of King Charles I. and by the indisputable authority of ancient records, to be the true and direct ancestor of the family. He accompanied the Conqueror in his expedition to Eng- land, and obtained large possessions in the counties of Norfolk, Suffolk, and Lancaster; in which he was succeeded by Herveius Walter, his son, having also a daughter, Alicia, who became wife of Ormus Magnus. Herveius Walter (which continued the surname until dis- used by Edmond, Earl of Carrick), when (according to the cus- tom), the Christian name only was to be used with the title), married Maud, eldest daughter of Theobald de Valoines, and had issue five sons; First, Theobald, the first Butler of Ireland. Second, Hubert. Third, Walter. Fourth, Roger. And, Fifth, Hamon. Hubert, the second son, was born at West-Derham, in Nor- folk, where he built a monastery; and encompassed the Tower of London with a strong wall and deep moat: he was brought up, with his brother, Theobald, under Ranulph de Glanville, Justice has clearly shewh, that they are ifreconcileable to truth. But the Rev. Mr. John Butler, a clergyman in Northamptonshire, being dissatisfied with all the accounts he had met with, and even with that of the famous Sir William Dugdale, who to say the truth, speaks very cautiously of this family, being sensible of the imper- fections of his materials, resolved to set this whole matter in a new light; and the story he tells is this : That Richard I. Duke of Normandy had, besides his son, Richard II. by Gunora, another son by a Lady whom he does not mention, whose name was Geoffrey, Count of Brionis; who had issue Gisslebert, who was guardian to William the Conqueror. He had also two sons; Richard, Earl of Clare, and Baldwin. This Richard, Earl of Clare, was Cupbearer to William I. and had five sons ; Gilbert, Roger, Walter, Robert, and Richard : these two last mentioned often supplying their father's place, took from thence the surname of Bouteillen. Robert, after his father's death, became Cupbearer to Henry I. and had issue Walter, and other sons. Walter succeeded him as Cupbearer, and was Baron of Baynard Castle; and the eldest son, Theobald, the first Butler of Ireland. This reverend antiquary has taken a great deal of pains to shew, that the surname of Botiller was mueh ancienter than the grant of this office to Theobald; whence he would infer, that the surname of the family was not either Walter or Becker, but Botiller or Butler. All this very eminently demonstrates, that it is a fruitless thing to expect either exactness or certainty in matters of this nature; and, in- deed, having looked into the pedigrees of several families of this name in England, I find different accounts of its origin ia almost every one of them."

Also, 28th August, 1427, he declared to the council, that he had expended forty marcs in resisting Gerald O Cavanagh, an Irish enemy, who had lately assembled a multitude of Kerns, to destroy the King's sub- jects; for which sum, he had a liberate 11th October following; and, the day after, another for fifty marcs, for maintaining and keeping in safe custody, divers Irish hostages, for the good con- duct of Bernard Mac-Mahon and Neylan O Donnel, captains of their nations, Owen O Neile and Meiler Birmingham. In 1440, he was twice again made Chief Governor; first, as L.L. and after as L.D. and that year had the temporal ties of the See of Cashel granted to him for ten years, after the death of the Archbishop, Richard O Hedian. In 144.3, he was again made L.L. and 24th June, 1444, he assembled at Drogheda many of the Privy-council, nobility, and gentry, of the English Pale, and declared, that he had now held the place of Chief Governor of the kingdom for the space of three years and more, and that it had pleased the King, by his letter and writ under the privy seal, sent by Robert Mansfield, Esq. groom of his bedchamber, to command him over to his presence, without delay or excuse, not- withstanding the commotions then subsisting in Ireland; where- fore he required of them, that they would declare before the said messenger, if he had committed, during his government, any ex- 1 MS.

Whereupon, after some time spent in consideration of his conduct, Sir James Allen declared, that there was not one there that could in any matter complain of him, bnt were all fully thankful to him for his good and gracious government; for the pains he had taken in defence of the land, having undergone great and continual labours; and had also, besides the allowance of the government, been at great expense for the honour of the King, and defence of the kingdom; and added, that if at that time he should leave the kingdom, it would be exposed to great danger; and desired, that Richard Wogan, Chancellor, father Hugh Middleton, or Robert Mansfield, would repair to the King, and procure a safe passage for him; and declare, that there was then great confederacy to destroy his liege subjects, and that if it pleased his Highness to give the L. L. leave to stay till Michael- mas, so that his subjects might gather in their harvest, it would be a great comfort to them, and confusion to their enemies. Upon this representation, the King dispensed with his attendance in England: but two years after (14-16), some of the Lords and Commons petitioned his Majesty for his removal, setting forth, " That he was old and feeble, and had lost many of his old castles for want of defence, and therefore was not likely to main- tain, much less enlarge, the King's possessions in Ireland." Upon this he was dismissed, though ihe bishop and chapter of Cork, the Corporations of Cork and Youghall, the Lords Barry, Roche, and others, gave a full testimonial of his great services; which, however, had this good effect, that the next year, when the Earl of Shrewsbury, L.L. accused him of high treason before the Duke of Bedford, Constable of England, in the Marshal's court, the King quashed the accusation; and examining the cause himself, was so fully convinced of its being founded in malice, that he or- dered all the proceedings to be cancelled, and declared by patent, 20th September, 1448, « That the Earl of Ormond was faithful in his allegiance, meritorious in his services, and untainted in his fame: that no one should dare, on pain of his indignation, to re- vive the accusation, or reproach his conduct; and that his accusers were men of no credit, nor should their testimony be admitted in any case."

But being alarmed by the designs, which (as was confidently said, and then generally be- lieved by the Roman Catholics), had been formed against the Lords of the Pale for extirpating their religion, with its professors, out of the nation, he came to a resolution of taking up arms, and to embark himself and family in op- youngest daughter of Sir Robert Hartpole, of Shrule, in the Queen's County, Knf. and dying in 1716, had four daughters, and three sons; Edmund, of Urlingford, after of Newtown, who married, and had issue five sons;1 William, of Bayswell; and Alderman Richard Butler, of Kilkenny, who died 28th June, 1753.

James, the ninth Earl of Ormond, was a most honourable and worthy nobleman, and in great esteem with King Hen. VIII. posing a step, which appeared so destructive to his religion and interest.

Majesty's laws as myself, who have been used in the nature of traitors, I forbore, for avoiding your displeasure, to acquaint you with my proceedings and other mo- tives therein : but now, for fear of being mistaken by the state, concerning my loyalty, and presuming of your Lordship's favour and good meaning towards me, I make bold to send you, here inclosed, an exact remonstrance of those principal grievances, that have procured this general commotion in this kingdom; where- with 1 shall humbly desire your Lordship to acquaint the L. J. and Council, to the end they may, by a fair redress of them, prevent the fearful calamities, that doubt- less shall ensue for want thereof. It is not my case alone, it is the cass of the whole kingdom; and' it hath been a principal observation of the best historians, that a whole nation, how contemptible soever, should not be so incensed by any Prince or State, how powerful soever, as to be driven to take desperate courses, the event whereof is uncertain, and rests only in the all-guiding power of the Omni- potent. This has been most lively represented by the French Chronicler, Philip de Comines, in the passages between the Duke of Burgundy and the Switzers. I need not press this matter further (a word is enough to the intelligent), and I cannot harbour any thought of your Lordship, but that you are sensible of the mi- series of this kingdom, whereof you are a native, and do wish the quiet and tran- quillity thereof. 1 do, for a further expression of my own sincerity in this cause, send to your Lordship here inclosed my declaration and oath, joined with others, which I conceive to be tolerable, and no way inclining to the violation of his Ma- jesty's laws, whereof I am and always will be very observant, as becomes a loyal subject, and « My Lord, " 25 March 1642. Your Lordship's humble servant, MOUNTGARRET." In confirmation hereof, It appears from the deposition of William Parkinson, of Castlecomer, Esq. that so little were his Lordship's inclinations to take up arms against his Majesty, that Walter Butler, of Poule'town, Walter Bagenal, of Dunleckney, and Robert Shee, of Kilkenny, Esqrs. were the chief instruments that made him do so; and so high was the insolence of those rebels grown, that the deponent had read a petition of one Richard Archdecne, Captain of the Irish- Town of Kilkenny, and the Aldermen of the city, directed to the Lord Mountgar- retand his Council desiring (among other things), that Philip Purcell, of Eallyfoile, Esq. his Lordship's son-in-la>\, might be punished for relieving the Protestants. Also, the titular Bishop of Cashel, Tullogh Oge O'Neile, brother to the arch rebel Sir Phelim, and the Popish citizens of Kilkenny, petitioned the rest of the council of Kilkenny, that all the English Protestants there should be put to death; where- LORD BUTLER. 85 In the last session of whose parliament, held 13th June, an act passed for confirming the title of Ormond, of the following tenor, viz. " Whereas sithence the 9th year of the reign of the noble claration and grievances incbsec' ; and this he was the better enabled to do, by reason of his alliance to most of the gentlemen of the county of Kilkenny ; who being generally of his religion, readily joined with him, and attended him with a numerous train to the city of Kilkenny, into which he was admitted, and there declared his reasons for taking possession of it, and entering into arms; and by public proclamation strictly enjoined all his followers, not to pillage or hurt the English inhabitants, either in body or goods; in which de- sign he so far succeeded, that there was not the least act of bloodshed com- mitted. Kilkenny being thus seised by his Lordship, he detached parties to secure other adjacent towns, which was done with such success, that in the space of a week, almost all the towns and forts in the counties of Kilkenny, Waterford, and Tipperary were in the power of these Irish forces ; after which, being chosen by those who prosecuted the same cause, General of all the forces raised by the gentlemen of the ccuntry, he marched into Munster, and took Dodd's Castle, with the castles of Knockordane, Ballahey, and Mallow; but the count r of Cork insisting upon making a General in their own province, he looked on himself to be principally levelled at, and retired with his forces into Leinstei, where he met the Earl of Ormond with a powerful army, and gave him battle at Kiilrush, in the county of Kildare, ioth April, 1642 ; but being entirely de- feated, he returned to Kilkenny, and was chosen President of the Supreme Council formed there in the Summer of 1642. March iSth following, he was at the battle of Rosse, fought by General Preston against the Marquis of Ormond ; and in 1643, with his son, Edmund (Roe), was at the taking of the castle of Borrass, in the Queen's County ; and with the Lords Netterville, Ikerrin, Upper Ossory, and Castlehaven, at ths siege of Ballynakill, which surrendered 5th May, after a siege first begun 26th November, 1641, during which time, about 900 men, women, and children, endured much want and misery, receiving very little relief from the state, and no arms at all ; so that upon the surrender, 753 were alive, the rest being slain, and dead by sickness. He continued to act in this war, but with as great mo- deration and care of the distressed Protestants, as the violence of the times would permit him to exercise ; and dying in 165 1, was excepted (though dead) from pardon for life or estate by Cromwell's act of parliament for the settlement of Ireland, passed 12th August, 1652, having been outlawed before. He lies buried under a handsome monument in the chancel of St. Canice church, with this inscription : unto Alderman Richard Lawless in excuse answered, that they were all robbed before, and he saw no cause that they should lose their lives; and at divers other times, when it was pressed that the English should be put to death, the Lord Mountgarret, with his son, Edmund, and his son-in-law, Purcell, by their strength, means, and persuasions, prevented it. 86 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND.

He acted in concert with his father during the progress of the rebellion; whose example he followed in pro- tecting the English, and endeavouring to restore peace to the kingdom : " of which King Charles II. was abundantly satisfied, and particularly by certificate 'of the Marquis of Ormond, and other good testimonies, that he was very active and earnest to incline the Irish to a submission to King Charles I. in 1646, and did then solemnly publish the peace in the city of Kilkenny, whereof he was Governor, for which he was committed by the opposers thereof, who kept him in durance for the space of three months ; yet, after the interruption of that peace, he used his utmost endeavours to restore it; corresponded with the Marquis, then L.

Where- upon, they ordered his Lordship's name to be expunged out of the list of Peers. But his Lordship at that time not being able to offer sufficient proofs of the re- versal of the said outlawries, deferred doing so, until 5th October, 1721, when, by petition, he prayed the aforesaid premises to be taken into consideration, and to grant him a re-hearing. The petition was referred to a select committee of all the Lords present ; and the Lord Viscount Strabane reported from the said Lords committees, that, on examination of the matter to them referred, and from the testimony of Mr. Thady Dunn, it appeared, that Philip Sava ge, Esq. in the year 1637, was Clerk of the Crown of the Court of King's Bench, and the said Dunn produced an affidavit, sworn by the said Philip Savage, be- fore Godfrey Boate, Esq. one of the Judges of the said Court, 24th November, 1716, which the Lords committees thought proper to" lay before the House, and is as follows : Philip Savage, Esq. late Clerk of the Crown, and Prothonotary of his Ma- jesty's Court of King's Bench, Ireland, came this day before me, and made oath on the Holy Evangelists, that he being in.

And this deponent further deposeth, that several records of his said office, being in the late troubles of this kingdom, removed to several places, to be for safe custody kept, and likewise being to this deponent's certain know- ledge, several times carried by this deponent's deputy to the House of Peers, and to the late trustees of forfeitures in this kingdom, pursuant to an act of parliament made in England, the said records of the reversal of the said Lord Mountgarret's said outlawries, are, by that means, as this deponent verily be- lieves, mislaid.

Said Dunn further deposed, that a motion was made in the Court of King's Bench, upon the said Savage's affidavit, in Michaelmas term 1716, as he be- lieved, but no rule was made thereon. And Richard Butler, Esq, deposed, that he was in the Court of King's Bench, when the said Court was moved by Sir Richard Levinge, then a Counsel at the Bar, upon the said Savage's affidavit, and to have the ucord made up of the reversal of the outlawry of Richaid, late LORD BUTLER. 93 sent, has by our said Sovereign Lord and all others, been named, called, accepted, and taken, as Earl of Ormond aforesaid.

Deceasing in Dublin, 14th May, 1736, he was buried in St. George's church. October 19th, 171 1, he married Catharine,J sister to Charles O'Neile, of Edenduffecarrick, of Shane's-Castle, in the county of Antrim, Esq. and leaving no issue by her, Lord Viscount Mountgarret, in the year 1641 ; but that Lord Ch.

All which the Lords committees thought fit to lay before the House, and is submitted to your Lordships. The resolutions of this House of 16th December, 1715, were then read. Resolved, that upon reading the journals of this House, and consideration had of the report made by the Lords committees, to whom the consideration of the petition of Edmund Butler, late upon the roll of Peers of this House, by the name of Edmund, Lord Viscount Mountgarret, was referred, it appears to this House, that the two outlawries of Richard, Lord Viscount Mountgarret, for the rebellion, which began in this kingdom on 23d October, 1641, are reversed. The order for expunging the name of Edmund, Lord Viscount Mountgarret out of the List of Peers of the House, 16th December, 1715, being then read, it is ordered by the Lords in parliament assembled, that Ulster King of Arms do forthwith insert into the list of Peers of this House, the name of said Ed- mund, Lord Viscount Mountgarret. Pursuant to these resolutions of the Lords in his favour, he delivered his writ of summons in the usual manner, 9th October, and took the oath of alle- giance; but the declaration and oath of abjuration being read to him, he re- fused to take the one, or make the other, but desired leave to consider thereof, and then withdrew.

He was created Viscount Thurles, by patent 2d January, 1535, the Privy Seal for which runs thus : " By the King, " Trusty and right well beloved, we greet you well, and woll and command you, that with convenient speed ye, under our Great Seal, of that our land of Ireland, being in your custody, ye address out in due form, our letters patents for the creation to the honour, name, style, and dignity, of our right trusty and well be- loved counsellors, the Lord Jamys Buttler, High Treasurer of that our land of Ireland, to the name of Viscount Durles, and the Lord Leonard Grey, Marshal and Lieutenant of our Army within the same, to the name of Viscount Grane, in like form and manner as was used in the creation of Viscount Gormanston.

Also, 5th May, 1542, the King conveyed to him and his heirs the moiety of the monastery of the Friars Minors of Clonmell, with all the lands thereto belonging,,to hold by the eighth part of a Knight's fee. He was commissioned, 8th August, 153p, to pursue and take into protection the rebels of Connaught, and such as were in arms in the South parts of Monster: and 10th April, 1543, was, by special commission, authorized to levy and lead men through the counties of Tipperarv, Waterford, Cork, Kerry, Ormond, and Desmond; to imprison as he saw fit; to pursue and give protec- tions for suppressing rebels, and quieting the country; and the next year was, with others, sent by the L, D. and council, into Clanrickard, to pacify a tumult raised there, after the death of Ulick, chief of that country, which he soon performed. In 1545, at the King's instance, he went General of the Irish forces into Scotland, in aid of the Earl of Lenox, with twenty-eighty ships, to recover that Earldom to Matthew Steuart, of which he had been dispossessed; but without success; for when he came upon the Scotch coast (where the Hamiltons had promised to deliver the castle of Dunbritton to Lenox), he perceived a vast army ga- thered to oppose him, whereupon, by common assent, he returned into England; and 17th October, 154(3, himself and thirty-five of his servants were poisoned at a supper at Ely-House, in Holborn, of whom, James White, Steward of his household, and eighteen more died, and he languishing until the 28th, then deceased. His body was interred in St. Thomas D' Acres, according to the orders he had given in a codicil to his will, but his heart was brought into Ireland, and deposited in the cathedral of Kilkenny. His will, whereby he disposes of his estate, bears date 10th March, 37 Henry VIII. and the codicil, 18th October of that King: in which, after directing his burial, he says, " Item, That my sonne and heyre being in the Prince Grace's Court, shall have me basinc and ewer, which I have here, a silver pott, a salte, a nywe boll, a trencher, and a spone of silver.

He was brought up from his infancy in the Court of England, where he was in- structed with King Edward VI. who took great delight in his d Bill in Chancery, filed 27th April, 1757. e Idem. f Lodge.

Sir Edward Bel- lingham, to allow him 200 marcs a year during his minority; and 1/th October, 1551, ordered a year's release of his wardship. He served as a volunteer under the Duke of Somerset in his Scots expedition, and behaved with great bravery in the battle of Mus- selburgh. In Queen Mary's reign he commanded a troop of horse, and gave extraordinary proofs of his fidelity and courage, as a Lieutenant of the horsemen, in suppressing Wyat's rebellion in 1554; after which, in November, he came to Ireland, and in July 1556, accompanied the L. L. with a body of 200 horse, and 500 foot, which he maintained at his own charge against the Scots Islanders, who made a descent into Ulster, and besieged Carrickfergus, when he distinguished himself in the battle fought 18th of that month, in which the Scots were entirely routed: 10th August, 1557, he served against another body of them, who had invaded Tyrconnel; and soon after relieved the Earl of Tho- mond, besieged in his castle of Bunratty, and took the castle of Clare; after which, 20th June, 155S, attended with many gentle- men, he joined the L. L. in the county of Limerick, on his march against Donald O Brien, the Earl of Thomond's uncle. This zeal and activity in the service of the Crown, induced Queen Mary to confirm his patent for the regalities and liberties of Tipperary, and the prize wines, 11th March, 1555; and 13th December, 1557, to grant the religious houses of Athassil, Jerpoint, Callan, Thurles, Carick, Kilcowle, and Tulleopbelim, with all their hereditaments in the counties of Tipperary, Kilkenny, and Wa- terford; the manor of Kilrush, in the county of Kildare, &c. the monastery of Athassil, to him, his heirs, and assigns; and the rest of the premises to his heirs male, to hold by the service of the twentieth part of a Knight's fee, and the yearly rent of 4g\. 3s. 9d. Irish. Which reserved rent Queen Elizabeth remitted, and con- firmed the said grant, 8th March, 1562; having, 27th January, 1560, given him a discharge of all such sums, as he stood in- debted to the Crown, for arrears of rent in the Exchequer, or any other Court, owing for the Earl, his father: and whereas in the time of Edward VI. he was appointed to repair to Ireland for service to be done there, one year before he had sued out his li- very, during which time he had the farm of his own lands granted to him, the rents whereof for that year remained unpaid; the Queen, in consideration of his good service, discharged him from 104 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. the same, as she also did the arrears of rent due upon certain lands, granted to him by Queen Mary: also, for his services against the traitors of Leix, by patent, dated 28th February, 1562, she granted to him and his heirs male, the abbey of Leix, in the Queen's County, with all its lands, estimated at 8201. and 3d October, 1563, in fee-farm, all the possessions of the monastery of the Holy Cross, advowsons of churches excepted. By privy seal, 30th June, 156p, as a reward for suppressing the rebellion of his bruthers, who by strength of arms endeavoured to assume their right to a certain territory, claimed by Sir Peter Carew, which they could not maintain by the laws, he was restored to the prize wines of Youghall and Kinsale, which had been seques- tered in 15(33, on a claim laid to them by Garret, Earl of Des- mond; and had his lands exempted from all cesses and impositions, subsidies to the Crown excepted, by reason of the damages he had sustained, and the impoverishment of his tenants by the rebels, which exemption was confirmed by King James, 5th December, lGll. He received other considerable grants from Queen Eliza- beth; viz. 24th September, 15/4, the estate of John Burnell, of Ballgriffin, in the county of Dublin, Esq. forfeited by treason, and three carracutes in Rathnemeddagh, county of Westmeath. And making suit to the Queen, that in consideration of his faith- ful services performed in the affairs of Ireland, she would grant to him in fee-farm 1001. Irish (in lands), a year, which grant she was pleased to make by privy seal at Greenwich, 7th Jul)', 1513, containing the manor of Old-Rosse, and other lands : also 12th December, 15/8, he had a grant of the rectories of Dunmore and Donnghmore, with many others in Kilkenny, Tipperary, Carlow, and Wexford; and at his Lordship's instance, King James I. by patent 26th November, 1604, granted to him and his heirs, all the premises contained in the patents of Queen Mary, by the twentieth part of a Knight's fee; and all contained in the patents of Queen Elizabeth, at the rent of 101. 5 s. Irish.11 He continued in the esteem of Queen Elizabeth throughout her long reign; she considered him as her relation, and had the highest opinion of his capacity, fidelity, and zeal for her service., which he took all occasions to promote and advance, by suppres- sing the commotions in Munster, and elsewhere, of which out- public histories relate many particulars, and shew his services to have been very considerable. The Queen, 26th August, 1559 11 Lodge. LORD BUTLER. 105 (in the first year of her reign), made him Lord Treasurer of Ire- land, in which post he continued to his death, and 30th of that month was sworn of her Privy- council. April : d, 1503, he was joined with Richard, Lord Mountgarret, ?nd others in commis- sion, to preserve the peace in the counties of Kilkenny and Lip- perary, during the Deputy's absence, against Shane O'Neile; 6th October that year, he was in commission to make inquiry in order to redress all offences in ecclesiastical matters; also, 21st Novem- ber, 1564, was commissioned to prosecute and subdue, as notorious rebels and traitors, such of the O'More's and their adherents, as before the 28th of April preceding, had not submitted to the ob- servation of such orders as were taken and concluded for them by the Earl of Sussex, L. L.' and was generally named in all commissions of public importance. In 1575, the L. D. Sidney ap- pointed him L. L. of the counties of Kilkenny and Tipperary, whom, in November that year, he splendidly entertained in his castle of Kilkenny, when on his Leinster progress ; and the O'More's having almost ruined the county of Kildare, Rory Oge, their chief, was prevailed on by his Lordship to come and submit to the Lord Deputy in Kilkenny. By patent, dated 6th January, 1578, he was made Governor of the province of Munster, when he subdued O'Sullivan More, took many of that sept prisoners, and delivered them to the L. L. Sussex; he also subdued Pierce Grace, Rory Oge, and the Mac Swiney's, and taking the Earl of Desmond prisoner, destroyed 46 of his captains, 800 notorious traitors, and 4000 common soldiers.k In 1581, the Queen con- stituted him Lord High Marshal of England, in which office he continued for a time, until (at his earnest suit), he was discharged; the cause moving him to surrender this honourable employment, was the apprehension that he should be tied to continual attend- ance in England, and thereby be made a stranger to his own country, a thought he could not endure. He arrived at Water- ford about the end of January 15S2, with a supply of 400 men, and a commission, appointing him General of Munster. He ob- tained also two-pence a day in addition to the soldier's pay, which, with permitting them to enjoy what spoils they took from the enemy, procured him the general love of the army.1 He was present in the parliaments of 1559 and 1583, sitting in both as Lord High Treasurer. August 15th, \5g-i, he was ap- pointed Chief Leader (in the Deputy's absence), and commander 1 Lodge. k Ibid.

D. took with him; a want, however, that he supplied, for he took the field at his own charge, where he continued all the months of October and November to cover the castles of Leighlin and Carlow; and in the beginning of December, was ordered to take on him the command of the army at Dundalk, having been, 29th October, by a particular commission, appointed Captain and Lieutenant- General of all her Majesty's forces in Ireland by sea and land ; and by her letter from Westminter 15th November, had the prin- cipal charge of all martial services, with the entertainment of 100 marcs by the month, thirty horsemen, and as many footmen in wages. After which, Tiroen applied to him to procure a com- mission to treat with him, which being obtained, they met at Dundalk, 22d December, and Tiroen making his submission in writing, a cessation of arms for eight weeks was concluded on nine certain articles, and his Lordship sending his submission and grievances to England, received authority to make a final conclu- sion with the rebels; meeting him again at Dundalk, 15th March, he received him and all the inhabitants of Tyrone to mercy, and upon his entering into conditions to renounce the name of O'Neile, to keep the peace, disperse his forces, Sec. at his Lordship's in- stance a general pardon passed" to Tiroen, 11th April, 159«S; yet, though he received it, being resolved to continue his disloyal courses, he never pleaded it; so that in the year lO'OO, he was outlawed upon an indictment brought against him in September 1595. He continued to prosecute the rebels with great vigour; and held, in 1599, all his castles in the county of Kilkenny, and six in Carlow, for the Queen; and the L.D.

But 10th of April same year,0 going eight miles from Kilkenny, to parley with Owen Mac-Rory O'More, he was treacherously taken prisoner, and detained by him to 12th June, where he obtained his liberty by delivering hostages for the payment of 30001. if he should seek revenge for that injury; but the custody of the provinces of Leinster and Munster being committed to him, his Lordship (notwithstanding his hostages were in Owny's hands, who in a little time found means to escape), abated nothing of his wonted activity and seve- rity; and securing those parts by the submission of the rebels, went to defend the Pale, against the incursions of the Irish, whilst the Deputy was in the north, and in 1001, executed twenty-nine rebels in the borders of Kilkenny and Tipperaryj? 28th May, 1603, he had his commission of Lieutenant-General of the army renewed by King James I. His Lordship having lost his sight about fifteen years before his death, departed this life at his house in Carrick, 22d Novem- ber, l6L4.i This shews, says the author, how erroneous is the following account, given by Mr. Anstis, Garter King of Arms, in his History of the Garter. " Thomas, Earl of Ormond, married Lora, daughter of Sir Edward Barklay, of Beverston, widow of John, Lord Mount joy, and also of Sir Thomas Montgomery, Knight of the Garter, which Earl Ormond, in his will made in 1(315" (a year after he was dead), " mentions Dame Lore, late his wife, by whom he had a daughter, thst lies buried at Sheffield, in Yorkshire);" he died in the eighty-second year of his age, and was buried, 17th April, in the choir of St. Canice church, where a monument was erected for him by Sir Walter Butler, Ms suc- cessor in the Earldom: the work was executed by Nicholas Stone, of London, statuary, for which he was paid 100 1. in hand, and 3001. more when finished and set up.1' He married three wives; first, Elizabeth, only daughter of Thomas, Lord Berkeley, but by her, who was buried in the chapel of St. Paul, in Westminster, he had no issue. 0 Lotge.

Secondly, Elizabeth, only daughter of John, the second Lord Sheffield; and by her, who was buried at St. Canice, Kilkenny, 21st April, l601 (or according to Sir G. Carew, her death seems to have happened in November or December 1000; for the Earl, 26th November^ met the Lord President of Munster, to whom he was of counsel, at Clonmell, to consult about the prosecution of the rebels in the borders of Ormond; which he readily undertook, and would have immediately performed, had not the immature death of his most virtuous and honourable Lady, the lamentable tidings whereof were now brought him to Clonmell, oppressing his aged heart with miserable sorrow, caused the same for a time to be deferred),3 he had Two sons and a daughter. Thirdly, Helena, daughter of David, Viscount Buttevant, and widow of John, son and heir of Richard, Lord Poer; but by her, who died in 1642, he had no issue. His children were, First, John, Viscount Thurles, born in 15S1, who died an infant, and was buried in St. Paul's Chapel, Westminster. Second, Thomas, buried in the church of Carrick under a flat *tone, yet remaining, with this circumscription : Here Uelh Entombed the Bodie of Thomas Butler Esquier, Son to the Righte HoniU tK Erie of Ormond and Ossory, &c. who dyed being Shirife of the County of Typerary 12 of Jamt.

So that the only daughter, Elizabeth/ became heir, and was first married to Theobald, Lord Tulleophelim," as before observed; and, secondly, to Sir Richard Preston, created 6th June, 1014, Lord Dingwall, in Scotland, and Earl of Desmond; and she dying in Wales x 10th October, 1628, had issue by him,who was drowned in his passage from Dublin to England 2Sth of the same month and year, an only daughter, the Lady Elizabeth Preston, born 25th July, 1615, and married to James, Duke of Ormond, as here- after. He was a man of very great parts, admirable judgment, vast experience, and a prodigious memory ; his capacity and talents s Pacata Hiber. 1 Rot. Inq. post. mort. Tho. Comit.

LORD BUTLER. log rendered him equal to the most Important and difficult employ- ments, and his loyalty made him fit to be employed in those of the greatest trust, in the most intricate and dangerous situation of affairs. He was a very comely and graceful personage, and of a black complexion, which made the Irish give him the sobriquet of Duff'e, and gave occasion to the Queen to call him her black husband. He was in his time the flower of his country; and all his life kept the greatest house, and used the most hospitality, of any person in the kingdom; and for his valour, wisdom, libera- lity, and virtue, was greatly honoured, not only in England and France, but in all other realms where he was known, and was com- monly called and taken by them to be the pattern of true honour. He repaired his castle of Kilkenny , and house of Carrick, at great expense; made a deer-park at the Earl's-Cragg, near Kilkenny; built the castle of Drehednefarney, near Holy -Cross, as a strength for the county of Tipperary, against the O'Mulrians, and other Irish borderers; and by his will, appointed his nephew, Walter (after Earl of Ormond), to build an hospital in Kilkenny, leaving lands of his own purchase for maintenance thereof, and that he should procure a charter of incorporation, with license of Mort- main; which he did, bearing date 16th May, 1631, by the name of Master, Brethren, and Sisters, of the Hospital of our most Holy Saviour Jesus Christ, of Kilkenny. Sir Walter Butler, of Kilcash, eleventh Earl of Ormond, for his devotion, styled Walter of the beads and rosaries/ was son of John, third son of James, the ninth Earl of Ormond; and did scood service to the Crown in the latter end of Queen Elizabeth's reign, when, with his own company, and some few gentlemen of the county of Tipperary, he pursued the traitor, Redmond Bourk, and forced him to fly into Spain, with the slaughter of his bro- ther, Thomas, and many of his followers, taking his brother, John, prisoner, who was soon afterwards executed at Kilkenny. In this action Sir Walter was wounded. He succeeded to the honour; became the eleventh Earl, and thought to have taken possession of the estate entailed upon him, but was opposed therein by Sir Richard Preston. The King, to support a favourite, took upon him to make award himself in the case. The Earl refusing to submit, the King seized upon all his estate, and imprisoned him in the Fleet, where he continued for sight years, in a most shameful want of all things. The beha- y French's Unkind Deserter, p. 2$. li PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. viour of King James, reflects particular disgrace on the character of that monarch; for he became convinced that he had made an unjust decision; he was sensible that he ought to unravel what he had done, and yet he persisted in depriving the. Eari of his right, and in suffering him to be kept a prisoner for so many years.2 He married Hellena, eldest daughter of Edmond, the second Viscount Mountgarret, and dying at Carrick, 24th February, 1532, was buried 18th June, 1033, at Kilkenny, having issue by her (who died 38th January, 1(5.3 l,a and was buried there 27th March), three sons, and nine daughters; viz.

Catharine, became the third wife of James Mandeville, of Ballydyne, in Tipperary, Esq. and had no issue. James, the eldest son of Thomas, Lord Thurlcs, and successor to his grandfather, Walter, was the twelfth Earl of Ormond, and first Duke of Ormond. He was born in the year l607q (ac- cording to Mr. Carte, he was born at Clerkenwell, London, 19th October, l6l0,r but it appears from the undoubted authority of an inquisition^ taken at Clonmell, 21st April, 1622, after his fa- ther's death, before the King's Commissioners, upon the oaths of twelve gentlemen of the county of Tipperary, that he must have been born in 1607. The words of the inquisition are these: " Praedictus Thomas Vicecomes Thurles 15t0 die Decembris Anno Dom. 1619, obiit & quidam Jacobus Butler, communiter vocatus Dominus Vicecomes Thurles, fuit filius et haeres praefati Thomas Butler, et quod praefatus Jacobus Butler, tempore mortis prasdicti Thomae fuit aetatis duodecim annorum, et non amplius.") He was granted in ward, 26th May, 1623, to Richard, Earl of Desmond, and by order of King James I. educated under the eye of Doctor George Abbot, Archbishop of Canterbury, who took care to have him instructed in the Protestant religion, as professed in the church of England, to which he adhered with great constancy and steadi- ness to his death. On 7th February, 1626, his Majesty, by privy seal, directed that he might receive all the rents of his lands, which were in sequestration on account of the lorsg unhappy differences between his grandfather and the said Earl of Desmond, concerning their o His will proved 15 December, 1743.

Irish. In 1031, he purchased a troop of horse; and in 1034, gave an uncommon instance of his undaunted resolution, in opposing the commands of the Lord D. Wentworth; who calling a parliament to meet 14th July, at the castle of Dublin, published a proclama- tion (to prevent any ill effects from their animosity, which was now risen very high), that no member should enter with their swords. All obeyed except this young Lord; who told the Usher of the Black Rod at the door, when he demanded his sword, that he should have no sword of his, except in his guts. Being the only Peer who sat that day in the house in defiance of the pro- clamation, it so fired the Deputy, who was not accustomed tc have his orders disobeyed, that his Lordship was called upon in the evening to answer it; who thereupon produced his Majesty's writ, calling him to parliament, Cinctum cum Gladio, or Per Cincluram Gladii. Which answer being unexpected, and find- ing him likely to prove an untractable companion, it was in deli- beration that night between the L. D. and his two friends, Sir George Ratcliffe and Mr. Wandesford, whether to trample under foot, or to oblige so daring a young man, who was now also grown so very popular ; when the more benign extreme being resolved on, he was taken into favour/ and by the Deputy, in his letter of lOth December, recommended to the King to cajl him into his Privy-council, as a person of solid judgment, grave and sober carriage, and good affection to his Majesty's service; who (added to that testimony), considering both his nobility and worth, thought fit to encourage and enable him for his service; and therefore, by his letter from Westminster, 20th January, 1634.. ordered the Deputy to call him into the Privy-council.1 s Biog.

In 1638, his troop was taken from him; but he was promoted to the command of a troop of cuirassiers, consisting of a captain, lieutenant, cornet, and 101 horsemen, with the pay of 24 s. a day, and five spare horsemen, at 2s.

On October 23d that year, the rebellion broke out, and his Lordship being then at his house in Carrick, the L.J. by an ex- press, notified the discovery of the plot; advised him to stand upon his guard; to make the best provision he could for the defence of the country about him; and desired him presently to repair to Dublin with his troop of horse: and the King referring the whole business of Ireland to the parliament of England, they made the Earl of Ormond (that the army might be led by an honourable and promising person), Lieutenant-General ; who being approved by the King, as one, who by his relations, integrity, and quality, was pitched on as the fittest person for that employment, his Ma- jesty confirmed him therein by his letter from Edinburgh of the 31st of that month: in which situation he behaved with indefa- tigable activity and undaunted resolution; for, as soon as an army could be raised, he marched from Dublin (31st January), took the castle of Lyons; routed the rebels at Kilsaghlan; secured Naas with a garrison, and placed in the town a new Sovereign, eight Burgesses, and fifty families of despoiled Protestants; and having lost a trumpeter, with four soldiers, by the garrison of Tipper, he marched thither, and caused it, with all therein, to be blown up; after which, 15th April, 1642, he gained a very signal victory over the Irish army under the Lord Mountgarret, at Kilrush, on his march from Athy to Dublin, killing 700 men, and taking all their ammunition, the General's waggon drawn by eight oxen, and twenty colours. For this great service he received (yth August), the following letter of thanks from the Speaker of the House of Commons, accompanied with a jewel of 6201. value: » 15 Car. I. 9. p. f.

In March ]<3i2, he took the castles of Castlemartin, Kildare, Tully, and Timolin; whence marching to Ross, he obtained on the 18th, a complete victory, though at a great disadvantage, over General Preston. Soon after which, a proposal being set on foot by the King, for a cessation of arms with the Irish for one whole year, he was appointed to conclude it by the King's letters, dated at Oxford 23d April, 3d May, and 31st July, 1643, and by com- mission under the great seal, dated at Dublin 3 1st August, he was authorised to treat and conclude for his Majesty, and in his name, with his said subjects, upon a cessation of arms for one whole year, to begin at such time, as to him should be thought fit, and upon such articles and agreements, as to him should seem necessary for his Majesty's service; or otherwise to break off the treaty, as he should see cause. Accordingly, he concluded the treaty 15th September, by which they were to pay 38,OOOl. and send succours to the King, in England : and l6th November, his Lordship sent to England about 2000 men; and 3d December, 1300 foot, and 140 horse, under the command of Colonel Robert Byron. The cessation being thus concluded, his influence, fidelity, and diligence became so conspicuous, that it was thought ne- cessary to confer upon him the government of the kingdom; and accordingly being appointed by the King at Oxford,2 13th November, 1643, L.L. oj Ireland, he was swrorn 21st January following; and 23d March, had a reversionary grant of the go- vernment of the fort of Duncannon, after the death of Laurence, Lord Esmond, with an augmentation of the warders, from thirty to one hundred; and that nobleman dving 26th March, 1(545, he had a grant thereof passed to him, 5th December, 1646, for life. The Irish agents presenting to the King several propositions in order to a firm and settled peace, his Majesty appointed the Marquis of Ormond, by commission dated at Buckingham, 24th June, 1644, to treat concerning the establishment of a firm and perfect peace in Ireland; and if he found it not reasonable to con- sent to such propositions, as should be made for a full peace, then to conclude on a further cessation of arms. By virtue of this corn- 's Carte, Vol. I. p. 475. LORD RUTLER. ng mission he concluded a peace, consisting of thirty articles, which were signed and sealed 28th March, l6-l6; whereby the Irish were to furnish a body of 10,000 men for the service of the King against the Parliament; and he had a commission, 17th August, authorizing him to give out commissions for raising officers, as well natives of Ireland, as others his Majesty's subjects. He continued in the government until the year l647,a when, with the King's approbation, he concluded a treaty with the Par- liament's Commissioners, 18th June, for delivering into their hands the next day all the garrisons of the kingdom, which he did, together with the city of Dublin; and 28th July, the regalia of the government. He then left the kingdom, and landed 2d August at Bristol; about which time the King being delivered by the Scots to the English army, and brought a prisoner to Hamp- ton Court, he attended his Majesty there, who received him with extraordinary grace, as a person who had served him with great zeal and fidelity, and with the universal testimony of all good men. After some stay, he embarked on board a shallop, in the obscure and unguarded port of Hastings, in Sussex (25th Decem- ber), which safely transported him to Dieppe, in Normandy; whence he waited on the Queen and Prince of Wales at Paris, by whom he was consulted in every transaction, being a person most depended upon to begin to give a turn to their fortune, and re- commended to them by the King for that purpose. Here he held a close correspondence with the Lord Inchiquin, on whose promise to prepare the province of Munster to receive him as the King's L. L. he ventured over, and arrived at Cork,b 29th September, 104S; whence, 11th October, he went to his house of Carrick, and there treated of peace with the Commis- sioners of the General Assembly, which (17th January), was so- lemnly confirmed and proclaimed at Kilkenny; on the 30th of which month the King being beheaded, the Marquis received the news with inexpressible grief, and a suitable resentment; and 17th February, King Charles II. continuing him L. L. he caused him to be solemnly proclaimed Kjlh March, and used his utmost endeavours to recover the kingdom to his obedience: which prov- ing ineffectual, he appointed the Marquis of Clanrickard his De- puty; and again leaving Ireland, 6th December, 16"50, arrived safe in France, where he gave the Queen an aecount of the con- a Chanc.

When the King returned to Paris after the defeat at Worces- ter, he was sworn of the Privy-council 3 and constantly attending his Majesty, was consulted by him in all his affairs. In ] 654, with great steadiness of spirit, he brought the Duke of Gloucester from the Queen at Paris to the King at Cologne, to prevent his being perverted in his religion ; and soon after attended the Prin- cess Royal from the Hugue to the King; as he did his Majesty in his journey to Frankfort ; and was present at the interview with Christina, Queen of Sweden, at Koningstein. In June following he was dispatched to engage the Duke of Neuburg's interest, to dispose the Court of Brussels to espouse the King's cause, and promote a treaty of alliance between their Britannick and Catholic Majesties. When the King settled at Bruges, and raised four regiments, he gave the command of one, in December 10'5(5, to the Marquis, that the Irish might be tempted to come over and increase his forces ; and by the Marquis's interest, the town of St. Ghislain, in which the French had a garrison., was delivered up to the Spaniards in the beginning of 1657, a service of great importance, considering its vicinity to Brussels ; and in February after, he was present at the Duke of York's attempt upon Mar- dike, when he had his horse killed under him. Having been elected a Knight of the Garter, 18th September N. S. 1649, he constantly wore the ensigns, though not installed or invested with the habit till 15th April, l66l; and on his Ma- jesty's restoration was appointed, 1st June, 1660, Lord Steward of the household ; sworn of his Privy, council ;c made a Lord of his Bedchamber; and soon after, L. L. of the county of Somerset; High Steward of the city and liberties of Westminster, Kingston, and Bristol; and was restored to the Chancellorship of the Uni- versity of Dublin, which he had held before the usurpation, and soon redressed the evils, which had befallen it in that period. In consideration of his distinguished loyalty, services, and suf- ferings, he was created a Peer of England, 20th July, 1660, by the titles of Baron Butler, of Llanthony, and Earl of Breck- nock. November 30th, 1660, the King, by his declaration from Whitehall, appointed the Duke of Albemarle, and the Marquis, c Carte, II. 200.

Fe- bruary 7th, 1660, he was made Colonel of a regiment of horse, and Captain of a foot company; 30th March, l66l, created Lord High Steward of England, to assist at the coronation on the 23d April, in which solemn procession he walked immediately before the King, and carried St. Edward's crown, wherewith his Majesty was crowned. That very day (30th March), he was created Duke of Ormond, in Ireland^ with the creation fee of 401. payable out of the Ex- chequer: and the county of Tipperary, which had been seized by King James I. was restored to him by patent, 2d April, 1662.

November 4th, 1661, he was declared L.

His Majesty, by patent, dated at Westminster, 23d April, 1662, having thought fit to raise in England a regiment of 1200 foot, to be his regiment of guards in Ireland, authorised his Grace to raise and transport them into this kingdom, and to give com- missions to such as he should think fit to be officers. February 20th, 1663, he was made Commander of the Port of Passage, in the county of Waterford, pursuant to privy seal at Whitehall 19th January preceding; in which the King writes, " Whereas we understand that our Fort at Passage, in our county of Water- ford, on the other side of the water from our Port of Duncannon, in our county of Wexford, is of great importance, and that it may tend very much to our service, and the safety of that harbour, and of the parts of the country thereabouts, that good correspondency and intelligence be held between those our forts; and our Royal Father having, by his letters patent, granted the command of the said Fort of Duncannon unto you, during your life; we think fit, that for the ends and purposes aforesaid, you have the command also of our said Fort of Passage, and the town of Passage, East and West, during your natural life, with power to appoint a Deputy." s And, 24th July, 1669, he was empowered to hold Court of Sessions and Gaol Delivery, in the county Palatine of Tipperary. August 4th, 1669, he was chosen Chancellor of the University of Oxford, on the resignation of Dr. Gilbert Sheldon, Archbishop of Canterbury, who earnestly recommended him to be his succes- sor, having a great and just opinion of his integrity and honour; and to shew the higher esteem of him, he did this at a juncture when his Grace was out of favour at Court.

He was commissioned with others, 14th March, 1683, for the remedy of defective titles; and whilst he continued in England, attempted to have a parliament called in Ireland, but ineffectually, and, upon the disappointment thereof, returned in August 1684, with a heavy heart, as he declared to many in Ireland.1 February 15th, 1684, he was continued by King James II. Lord Steward of his household, and constituted Lord High Stew- ard of England for his coronation,"1 at which, 23d, April, 1685, he assisted, by carrying the same crown as before at the corona- tion of King Charles II. This solemnity performed, he returned to Ireland; but in March following was recalled, and on his ar- rival at Court, found himself in displeasure with the King; had his regiment taken from him; and perceiving the measures which the King was pursuing, would carry him to the most violent actions, he entertained dismal apprehensions of what might ensue, which are thought to have hastened his death, that happened 21st July, 1683," at his seat of Kingston-Hall, in the county of Dor- set; and 4th August he was interred in Westminster Abbey. During his administration of affairs in Ireland, he procured many favours from the Crown for the public benefit of the king- dom. In August ]660, he prevailed with the King to fill the four archiepiscopal, and twelve episcopal sees, with the most emi- nent men to be found among the Irish clergy; at which time great endeavours being used to prevent the admission of Episcopacy, and the constitution of the church of England, the clergy of Ireland addressed themselves to him for protection, and soon felt the good effects of his interposition: and the grants he procured for them, drew from all the Bishops then in Dublin an address of thanks, in the name of all the orthodox clergy of Ireland.

At a considerable expense and labour he revived the linen manufacture, die foundation of which was laid bv the Earl of Strafford, to which is owing its uow flourishing state. He obtained die allowance of a free trade to all foreign nations, either in war or peace with England. He procured the King's letter for incorporating a College of Physicians in Dublin, to improve the science, and reform the practice of physic in Ireland (which society had the grant of a new charter, 29th September. ldO-M He accomplished the foundation of the hospital near Dublin, fox ancient and maimed officers and soldiers of Ireland) which loth February, t683, was incorporated a body politic of governors, to have perpetual succession, &c He founded a public school called the College of Kilkenny, and endowed it with lands to the amount of 40l. a year.

And this friendship was so great to him, that without it he coulc: ne the weight of that part of the King's b-.:- which was incumbent on him, nor die envy and reproach that attended the trust." " The Marquis ef Ormond (adds the noble Historian in his own Life), was the person of the greatest quality, estate, and reputation, who had frankly en- gaged his person and his fortune in the King's service, fiom the first hour of the troubles, and pursued it with thai ge and constancy, that when the King was murdered, and he dessrted by the Irish, contrary to the articles of the peace which they had made with him, and when he could make no longer defence, he refused all the conditions which Cromwell offered, who would have given him all his vast estate, if he would have been contented to have "lived quiet!) in some of his own houses, without further concerning himself in the quarrel; and t i himself without so much as accepting a pass from his authority, in a little weak \essel into France, where he found the King, from whom he never parted, till he returned with him into England. And having thus merited as much as 3 subject can do from a Prince, he had much more merit and esteem with the King than any other man: and the lustre the Chancellor was in, was no less from the declared friendship the Marquis had for him, than from the great trust his Majesty reposed in him.* * Burnet's character of him is not quite so high. 126 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. had a confirmation thereof, and of divers other lands, by several patents under the acts of settlement. The King having 13th No- vember, 1665, ordered certain light-houses to be built in or near the ports of Dublin, Carrickfergus, Waterford, and Kingsale, for the preservation of his ships, which were to pay a certain duty for the charge and maintenance thereof} his Majesty, 2Qlh March, 1667, granted those that were then built (viz. two upon the Hill of Howth, one in the Isle of Magee, two near Kingsale, and one at the Tower of Hooke, otherwise the Tower of Rcsse), to his Lordship for sixty-one years, at the rent of 40s.

Thomas, Earl of Ossory, and Loud Butler of More-Park, in England, the eldest son, born at Kilkenny, 8th July, 1634, by the time he was twenty-one years of age, gave such proofs of his genius, prudence, good disposition, and virtue, that Sir Robert Southwell then drew his character, and shewed him to the world in very lively colours. " He is (says he) a young man with a very handsome face ; a good head of hair; well set; very good- natured; rides the great horse very well; is a very good tennis- player, fencer, and dancer; understands music, and plays on the guitar and lute; speaks French elegantly; reads Italian fluently; is a good historian; and so well versed in romances, that if a gal- lery be full of pictures and hangings, he will tell the stones of all that are there described. He shuts up his door at eight o'clock in the evening, and studies till midnight; he is temperate,, cour- teous, and excellent in all his behaviour." February 8th, l66t), he was made Colonel of a regiment of foot in Ireland; 13th June, l66l, Colonel of the next regiment of horse that should become void; and, on the Earl of Mountrath's death, succeeded to his troop of horse, and regiment of foot; was appointed the lpth, Lieutenant-General of the horse; sworn of the Privy-council, l6th April, l66l; and his Majesty judging it of importance to his service, that he should be qualified to sit in the House of Lords in Ireland, thought fit to direct the L.

In January 1671, he received a com- mission to command the Resolution, a third-rate ship, and ano- ther in April 1672, to command the Victory, a second-rate; and 3d June, behaved with great valour and conduct in Southwould- Bay fight with the Dutch, endeavouring to lay Admiral de Ruy- ter's 9hip aboard, but he sheering off avoided the engagement: the Earl of Ossory however gained so much reputation, that when he returned to Court, he was, 30th September, elected a Knight of the Garter, and 29th October instalied at Windsor. In November he was sent Envoy Extraordinary to the Court of France, with compliments of condolence on the death of Louis- Francis, Duke of Anjou, and at his parting was presented with a jewel of 20001. value. May 17th, 1673, the King gave him the command of the St. Michael, a first-rate ship, then newly built, and made him Rear Admiral of the Blue squadron, in order to that great sea-fight against the Dutch, which happened shortly after, wherein, as Anthony a- Wood says, he gallantly acted be- yond the fiction of a romance. After the fight, he was made Rear Admiral of the Red squadron; and 10th September, displayed the Union flag, as Commander in Chief of the whole fleet, in the ab- sence of Prince Rupert, by the King's special command. November 10th, 16/4, he embarked for Holland, to treat with the Prince of Orange concerning a marriage with the Lady Mary, eldest daughter of James, Duke of York; was appointed in Au- gust 1675, a Commissioner of the Admiralty; had a pension 13th March following, granted for three years, of 26661. 13s. 4d. a year; and 18th November, 1676, was sworn Lord Chamberlain to Queen Catharine. In July 1677, he joined the Prince of Orange at the siege of Charleroy; and in February following, going over to command the English forces in the pay of the States, had a commission from them to be Colonel and Captain of one of their six regiments, being also made Major-General, and Commander in Chief of the English Brigade, by the Prince of Orange's patent; and in the campaign of ] 674, was fought the famous battle of Mons, in which the Mareschal de Luxemburgh was forced to retreat, and the Earl of Ossory gained so much glory ; the States of Holland, the Duke de Villa Hermosa, governor of the Low Countries, and the King of Spain himself, in a letter under his own hand, acknowledging his great services in that campaign.

James, the second Duke of Ormond, was born 29th April, 1665, in the castle of Dublin, when his father was deputy to his grandfather; was educated in Christ Church, Oxford, till his fa- ther's decease, when he was complimented with the degree of Master of Arts, after which (by his grandfather's order), he re- turned td Ireland/ and went a volunteer in April 1684, to the siege of Luxembourg, then invested by the French, whence he returned to London in July, and was made Colonel of a regiment of horse in Ireland. In May 1685, he was appointed a Lord of his Majesty's Bedchamber, and serving in the army, was sent down into the West against the Duke of Monmouth, and had a share in the victory over that unfortunate nobleman, 6th July, at Sedge- more, near Bridgewater. He was elected Chancellor of the Uni- versity of Oxford, 25th July, 1688, in the room of his grandfather, and installed 23d August, at his house in St. James's-square.

On King William's advancement to the throne, his Grace, 14th February, 1088 (the day after the King and Queen were proclaimed), was made a Gentleman of his Bedchamber, and Co- lonel of the second troop of guards; installed a Knight of the Garter, 5th April, 1689, and 11th, constituted High Constable of England, for their Majesties coronation. In I69O, he attended his Majesty into Ireland; was at the Battle of the Boyne, and two days after detached with his uncle, Henry, Lord Auverquerque, and nine troops of horse, to secure and take possession of the city of Dublin; and the King after- wards advancing towards Kilkenny, his Grace was dispatched from Castledermot, to secure that city and the adjacent country from plunder; when his Majesty came there, lpth July, he splen- didly entertained him in his castle, attended him into England and Holland, and 29th July, 1693, was at the battle of Landen, wherein he charged the enemy at the head of one of Lumley's squadrons, received several wounds, and having his horse shot under him, was rescued by a gentleman of the French guards from the hands of a villain about to stab him; being thus taken prisoner, he was carried to Namure, where he signalized his cha- rity, by distributing a great part of his revenues to his fellow pri- soners, by the hands of Count Guiscard, the governor;1" but was after exchanged for the Duke of Berwick, made prisoner by Bri- gadier Churchill, and when at liberty, attended his post in the army, where the grandeur of his table and retinue were an honour to the English nation, as his valour had been an example to the nobility. c By Queen Anne he was appointed, 20th April, 1/02, Com- mander in Chief of the land forces, sent against France and Spain, when he destroyed the French fleet, sunk the Spanish galleons in the harbour of Vigo, and took the fort of Redondella, for which he received the thanks of both houses of parliament. b Lodge. c ibid. 132 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND.

In 170/, he was appointed Colonel of the third troop of horse guards; J 9th October, 17 10, again declared L. L. of Ireland; and 1st January, 1711, made Colonel of the first regiment of foot guards, and declared Captain General, and Commander in Chief of the land forces in Great Britain, or which were or should be employed abroad, in conjunction with the troops of the allies; which post (his commission being signed 26th February)/ he held till the treaty of Utrecht in 1713. June 26th that year, he was made Warden and Admiral of the Cinque Ports, and Constable of Dover Castle; and on the Queen's death, was one of the Privy-council who signed the pro- clamation, declaring King George I. to be the only lawful and rightful King of Great Britain; on whose arrival, he was gra- ciously received by his Majesty; appointed, 9th October, 1/14, of his Privy-council in Ireland; and L.L. of the county of Somer- set; from which he was removed a few days after, as he had been ISth September before from being Captain-General of the army, the Lord Viscount Townshend then acquainting him, that his Majesty hsd no longer occasion for his service in that quality, but would be glad to see him at Court. The parliament meeting 1/th March, 1714, his Grace was impeached, 21st June, 1715, by Mr. Secretary Stanhope, of high treason, and the House of Commons voted that he should be im- peached accordingly ; whereupon being advised to avoid the impending storm of a parliamentary prosecution, although it is presumed by many, had he waited to stand his trial, that his in- nocent and good intentions in all his actions, would have cleared him from the imputed guilt;e he retired, 8th August, into France, and was 20th of that month attainted, his estate forfeited, and honours extinguished; and the parliament of this kingdom, 26th June, 1716, passed an act, for extinguishing the regalities and liberties of the county palatine of Tipperary; for vesting his estate d Lodge. e See b;s conduct in the campaign of 1712 vindicated, in a pamphlet pub- lished in 1715.

But the same English parliament passed an act, 24th June, 1/21, to enable his brother, the Earl of Arran, to purchase his estate, which he accordingly did.f This great, but unfortunate nobleman, married to his first wife, 15th July, 1682, Anne, eldest daughter of Laurence, Earl of Rochester, who dying, 25th January, l684,s of a miscarriage in Dublin, aged seventeen years and three days, was buried in the family vault in Christ Church; he married, secondly, 3d August, 16S5, Mary,1' eldest surviving daughter of Henry, first Duke of Beaufort, and by her, who died l(Jth November, 1/33, in the sixty-ninth year of her age, and was buried in Westminster Abbey, he had one son, Thomas, born 26th September, 1686, who died 27th February, 1689, and was there buried. And five daughters; whereof the Ladies Mary, Emilia, and Henrietta, died in their infancy. Lady Elizabeth died unmarried, 20th April, 1750, and was buried with her father. And Lady Mary was married, 21st October, 1710, to John Lord Ashbumham, and dying 2d January, 1/12, set. 23, without surviving issue, was buried at Ashburnham. f " When Stanhope moved for his impeachment (says Coxe), Hutcheson, member for Hastings, made a long speech in his behalf, and urged many palliat- ing circumstances ; and Sir Joseph Jekyll, whose principles and conduct had always proved him a sincere friend to the Protestant succession, spoke warmly on the same side. The debate continued above nine hours, and Ormond had so many friends, that his impeachment was carried only by a majority of forty- seven. The proceedings against Ormond would not, in all probability, have been conducted with much asperity, had he preserved the moderation, which, under his circumstances, would have been becoming; but, on the contrary, whilst his conduct was under inquiry, before the secret committee, he lived in an unsuit- able style of magnificence, affected to court popularity, and saw with compla- cency, his name made the signal of tumult and disloyal exclamation! Even after his impeachment, Devonshire had arranged for him a private interview with the King; but far from availing himself of this kindness, and contrary to the pro- mise extorted from him by his Tory friends, he withdrew from the kingdom, and precluded the possibility of a return to his native country, by instantly entering into the service of the Pretender. Having once embraced that desperate measure, he was too honest and zealous to act like Bolingbroke, and obtain a pardon by sa- crificing the interest of his new master; or by entering into a compromise with his prosecutors."

I he surname of Abercromby, like others of great antiquity, is local, taken from the lands of Abercromby, in the county of Fife, which was the ancient possession of this family. The Abercrombies of that Ilk, were very considerable gentle- men. Thomas Abercromby, of that Ilk, in the reign of King James II. was one of the Lords of Session, or what at that time was a committee of parliament, who were from one session to another appointed for the administration of justice, anno 1457. He left a son, Thomas, his successor in the barony of Abercromby, And a daughter, Margaret, who was married to Maule, of Panmure. And from this Thomas the line of the family continued till the reign of King Charles I. anno l64p, that Thomas Abercromby sold the Barony of Abercromby to Sir James Sandilands, of St. Monance, who was created Lord Aber- cromby in the year ] 647. The most ancient cadet of this family of Abercromby of that Ilk, was Abercromby, of Birkenbog, in the shire of Banff, whose predecessor was Humphredus de Abercromby, a son of the house of Aber- cromby, who obtained a charter and grant from King Robert the Bruce, of the lands of Harlhill and Ardun, pro homagio et ser- vitio suo, as the charter bears; which is still extant in the custody of Sir James Abercromby, of Birkenbog, Baronet. It is without date, but appears to have been about 1315, the seventh year of the King's reign, immediately after the battle of Bannockburn, 150 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND, when that immortal monarch began to reward the loyalty and valour of such of his subjects as had served him hitherto with merit and fidelity. This Humphrey Abercromby, of Har thill, was succeeded by Aalexandek de Abercromby, who acquired from Patricias Hay, dimidiam partem terr r de Ardhuienyh, to be held of him and hi-; heirs in feu do et hcereditate. To the deed the grantor's seal is appended, and (he witnesses are Domino Willielmo Episcopo /iber- donensi, Domino David Fleming, milite, Johanne de Periston. The charter is grante l in the reign of King David II. To this Alexander succeeded another Alexander de Abercromby, designed of Pitmithen; and to him succeeded his son and heir, Alexander Abercromby, of Pitmithen, as is vouched by a precept out of the chancery, by King Janus HI. for investing the said Alexander in the lands of Har hill, Pitmithen, l'ilmacby, Halton, and Ardoun, in comitatu de Garioch. The instrument of sasine is dated the 4th of August, 1484, the 25th year of the King's reign. Then sucee-ded James Abercromby, of Leg and Birkenbog, who is also de- signed of Pitmithen. He was married to Margaret Ogilvie, daugh- ter of Sir James Ogilvie, of Findlater and Deskford, and was slain with King James IV. at the battle of Flodden. He was succeeded by Geokge Abercromby, of Pitmithen, his son, who, by Christian his wife, a daughter of Barclay, of the Barclays, of Gartlay, had Jamfs, his son and heir, who succeeded him, and married Marjory Hay, a daughter to William, Earl of Errol. Ali xander Abercromby succeeded to James, and married Margaret, daughter of Leslie, of Pitcaple, who was again suc- ceeded by Alexander, his son, who married Margaret Leslie, daughter of William Leslie, of Balquhain, by whom he had James Abercromby of Birkenbog, and Alexander, who was Laird of Fitternier, father of Alexander Abercromby, of Fitteinier, who, by Jean his wife, daughter of John Seaton, of Newark, had Francis Abercromby, of Fitternier, who was by King James VII. created Lord G I as if or d for life, in regud that his children by his wife, Anne, Baroness of Semple, were to succeed to the BARONESS ABERCROMBY. 151 honours of Lord Semple; of which marriage is descended the pre- sent Hugh, Lord Semple. The Lord Glassford had a younger brother, Patrick Ab^r- cromby, M.D. who wrote the Lives of the Scots warriors, in two volumes, with great exactness and ingenuity. The above James Abercromby, of Birkenlog, was succeeded by Alexander Abercromby, of Birkenbog, who was Falconer to Charles I. He married Elizabeth Beaton, daughter to Beaton of Balfour, by whom he had First, Sir Alexander Abercromby, Baronet. Second, John Abercromby, of Glasshangh. Third, Walter Abercromby, of Braconhilly. Sir Alexander married, first, Jean Urquhart, of the family of Urquhart of Cromarty ; and after her, Jean Sutherland, of the fa- mily of Kilminity; and, lastly, Elizabeth Baird, daughter to Sir James Baird of Auchmeddan, chief of that name; by which last Lady he had First, Sir James Abercromby, of Birkenbog. And, Second, Alexander Abercromby, of Tillibody, who suc- ceeded to his cousin, George Abercromby, of Keith (who was an ancient cadet of the family of Birkenbog), in the lands of Til- libody.a George Abercromby, of Tillibody, Esq. married Mary, daughter of Ralph Dundas, of Manour, Esq. and had issue, First, Sir Ralph.

In August 1795, he was appointed to succeed Sir Charles Grey as Commander in Chief of the British forces in the West Indies. March 24th, 1796, Grenada was suddenly attacked, and taken by a detachment of the army under his orders. He after- wards obtained possession of the settlements of Demerara and Issequibo, in South America. St. Lucia was next taken by some difficult exertions, in which the ability of this eminent Com- mander was signally displayed. St. Vincent's wis, by the middle of June, added to the British conquests. Trinidad, in February 1797> shared the same fate. He returned the same year to Europe; and in reward for such important services, was invested with the red ribbon, appointed to the command of the regiment of Sccch Greys, intrusted with the governments of the Isle of Wight, Fort George, and Fort Augustus, and raised to the rank of Lieutenant-General. He held for a time the chief command of the forces in Ire- land. In that command he laboured to maintain the discipline of the army, to suppress the rising rebellion, and to protect the people from military oppression, with a care, worthy alike of the great general, and the enlightened and beneficent statesman. From that station he was called to the chief command of the forces in Scotland. His conduct in this distinguished appointment gave universal satisfaction. When the great enterprize against Holland was resoived upon, Sir Ralph Abercromby was called upon again to command under his Royal Highness the Duke of York. The difficulties of the ground, the inclemency of the season ; delays, though inconve- nient, yet unavoidable; the disorderly movements of the Russians, and the timid duplicity of the Dutch, disappointed our hopes of that expedition. But, by the Dutch, the French, the British, it was confessed, that even victory, the mo:t decisive, could not have moie conspicuously proved the talents of this illustrious officer. His country applauded the choice, when he was sent with BARONESS ABERCROMBY. 153 an army to disposses the French of Egypt, 1S01. His experience in Holland and Flanders, and in the climate of the West Indies, particularly fitted him for this new command. He accomplished some of the first duties of a general, in carrying his army in health, in spirits, and with the requisite intelligence and supplies, to the destined scene of action. The landing, the first disposi- tions, the attacks, and the courage opposed to attack, the spirit with which his army appears to have been, by confidence in their leader, inspired ; the extraordinary superiority which the British infantry under his command evinced, to that which was thought the bravest and best disciplined infantry in the world, demonstrate that all the best qualities of one of the bravest commanders were in Sir Ralph Abercromby united — that they were all summoned forth into activity in the glorious achievements amid which he fell. His private character was modest, disinterested, upright, unstained by any negligent or licentious vice. He was a good son, brother, father, husband, and friend, as well as an able and heroic general. His remains were conveyed on board Admiral Lord Keith's flag-ship to Malta, attended by Col. Sir John Dyer, to be there interred in the commandery of the Grand Master, with the highest military honours. b The following just tribute to his memory is extracted from the London Gazette, from Lieutenant-General Hutchinson (now Lord Hutchinson), dated Head- Quarters, Camp, four miles from Alexandria, April, 3d, 1801 : " We have sustained an irreparable loss in the person of our never sufficiently to be lamented Commandi-r in Chief, Sir Ralph Abercromby, who was mortally wounded in the action, and died on the 28th of March. I believe he was wounded early, but he concealed his situation from those about him, and continued in the field giving his orders with that coolness and perspicuity, which had ever marked his character, till long after the action was over, when he fainted through weakness and loss of blood. Were it permitted for a soldier to regret any one who has fallen in the service of his country, I might be excused for lamenting him, more than any other person? but it is some consolation to those who tenderly loved him, that, as his life was honourable, so was his death glorious. His memory will be recorded in the fc Gent. Mag.

Nevertheless, were it possible to contain still greater merit, I hope never to see it, " used," nor any other, even if the col- lected efforts of every classic genius could be united in the formation. I have long indulged a hope of seeing announced, that on the mural monument, under the invincible standard, will be transcribed the sympathizing narrative from the dispatches of Sir John Hely Hutchinson, now Ba'on Alexandria. " Not the iesplendent and refulgent coincidence of united tdlents, can form any thing more truly sublime, energetic, descriptive, or congenial to an English- man, than the aforesaid ,'ccount, written at the time, and on the spot, whilst all the affections and feelings were warm with the event. Not the Greek epi- gram of Byzantine Antiphiius, to the memory of Agricola, nor the most tender lamentations of Tacitus on the same great man, are more truly pathetic than those worrit of the surviving Commander of Egypt. Should any other epitaph be adopted, it will fail, like unto a masterly copy of an incomparable original." Gent. Mug. Dtcemher 1801, p. 1070. 156 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND, FITZHERBERT, LORD ST. HELENS. The two families of Fitzherbert of Norlury, and Fitzher- bert of Somersall-Herlert and Tissington, in Derbyshire, can be traced in that county as early as the origin of surnames. They are said to have been of the same stock as the ancient baronial house of Fitzherbert, of whom Herbert Fitzherbert was Lord Chamberlain to King Stephen, and was lord of the Forest of Dene, in Gloucestershire. On this subject a memorable dispute occurred between Brooke the Herald, and Camden, in conse- quence of an assertion of the latter in his Britannia. " Herbert (says Camden) married the sister of William, Earl of Hereford, and in her right was Lord of Dene, from whom de- scended the noble family of Herbert ja hence also, if we shall credit the heralds and escutcheons of arms, Anthony Fitzherbert, that great lawyer, and Lord Chief Justice of England, took his original. But I think he rather descended from the worshipful family of Fitzherberts, in Derbyshire." To this Brooke answered, " Whoever shall derive the said Anthony, or any of that family of Fitzherberts, from any other original than that of Herbert, who married the sister of William, Earl of Hereford, have and shall err from the truth." I am clear that Camden was nearer the truth than Brooke. That the Lord Chamberlain, and the Fitzherberts of Derbyshire, might be descended from a common ancestor, is probable from the similarity of names (and perhaps from that only) ; but dates will not allow the latter to have been descended from the former.'' a But see on this subject, Vo!. III. art. Pembroke. b See a discussion of this subject by the present Editor, in Gent. Mag. Vcl. LXF1I. p. 64,-. LORD ST. HELENS. 157 But what is more, even the two Derbyshire families, of Nor- bury and Somersal-Herbert (of which that of Tissington is a younger branch), cannot be traced to a common origin. Their fountain-head is lost in the abyss of time. Their very arms, which are of venerable antiquity, inasmuch as their usage of them can be exhibited from the time of Henry II. are totally dissimilar: but this is by no means conclusive against a common progenitor; because those of Norbury took theirs c in allusion to the coat of their feudal chief, Ferrers, Earl of Derby; and might perhaps on that account desert the common family coat. The ancestors of the present Peer hue borne the same arms as Stephen Fitzherbert, the Lord Chamberlain. d William Fitzherbert,6 of Somersal-Herbert, co.

William Arnald, whose un- common talents and acquirements must, no doubt, be still re- membered by many individuals of that society. He became B.A. in 1774; when he obtained the first of the two gold medals given annually by the Chancellor of the University, for the encourage- ment of classical learning. In 1775, being then making the tour of France and Italy, he was presented to one of the University Travelling Scholarships; and he took his degree of M.A. by proxy, in 1 777. He was employed, at an early age, in the diplomatical profes- sion ; having been appointed, in March 1777, to the post of his Majesty's Minister at Brussels. He resided at that Court till Aug. 1782; when he was sent to Paris with the commission of sole Plenipotentiary for negociat- ing a peace with the Crowns of France and Spain, and the States General of the United Provinces: which arduous and important work he had the happiness to accomplish, by the conclusion of the several preliminary treaties with those Powers, which wer-. i<54 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. signed at Versailles in January 1783. He had also a leading share in negociating the peace with America, which was concluded at Paris at the same period. And though these treaties were censured at the time by a vote of one branch of the Legislature, the test of experience evinced the political wisdom, as well as the solidity of the principles on which they were framed. Since they produced a ten years' peace, during which the British Empire enjoyed the highest state of prosperity to which it had ever at- tained. And it may be truly affirmed, that the war which after- wards broke out, arose not from any seeds of discord which had been left uneradicated by the peace of 1783, but solely from the fatal effects of the French Revolution: an event which has been so justly and emphatically described by Mr. Burke, as " mocking all calculations framed by wisdom, and founded on experience." In Aug. 1783, he was appointed Envoy Extraordinary to Catharine II. Empress of Fvussia; whom he accompanied in 1/87, on her memorable tour to the Crimea. At the close of the same year, he returned to England ; was created a Privy Counsellor; and appointed Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. In the Spring of 1/80, he resigned that employment, and was sent as his Majesty's Envoy Extraordinary to the Hague. And in May 1/91, he repaired to Madrid, invested with the rank of Ambassador Extraordinary, and with the necessary powers for accommodating the differences which had arisen at that period between Great Britain and Spain, respecting the right of British subjects to trade at Nootka Sound, and to carry on the Southern Whale Fishery. These differences were amicably adjusted by the convention of the Escurial (signed in October 1/90), which was highly approved by the King, and both Houses of Parliament. And his Majesty was pleased, as a reward for his Ambassador's services in negociating it, to create him an Irish Peer, with the title of Baron. St. Helens. In 1/U3, he concluded a treaty of alliance between his Majesty and the Crown of Spain. But the climate of that country dis- agreeing with his health, he quitted it in the beginning of \7q4, and was appointed Ambassador at the Hague; where he remained till the ensuing winter, when the legitimate government of the Dutch Republic was overthrown by the invasion of the French. His latest fortign mission was to St. Petersburgh; whither he was sent as Ambassador in May 1801, to congratulate the Em- peror Alexander on his accession to the throne of Russia ; and to propose terms for accommodating the differences which had arisen LORD ST. HELENS. 165 between Great Britain and the three Baltic Powers, towards the close of the reign of the Emperor Paul, and had occasioned the attack against Copenhagen, and other mutual hostilities. This negociation he happily brought to a conclusion, within the short period of a fortnight after his arrival in Russia, by the signature of the Convention of St. Petersburgh, of the 17th June, 1801. The benefits of which accommodation are described in a recent work (Harris's Preface to his Translation of Gentz's State of Eu- rope), in the following terms: " This Convention is one of the most important treaties in the annals of history; since it has not only put an end to the dangers which threatened the safety of England, and the tranquillity of Europe, at the present moment} but has in all human probability prevented the recurrence of those dangers, by means of its wise and salutary provisions, which are equally just in themselves, and satisfactory to all the parties con- cerned in it. It seems to have left no dubious point of maritime law, which might serve as a pretext for any future quarrel with Great Britain, or as a handle for any future intrigues of France. The Powers of the North stand pledged to support the system which they were lately bound to oppose; and the equitable con- cessions which we have consented to make, have added double force to the rights on which we were bound to insist." Addresses to his Majesty, approving of this Convention, were voted by both Houses of Parliament: and immediately after its signature, Lord St. Helens was promoted to a Peerage of the United Kingdom, by the title of Baron St. Helens, of the Isle of Wight. In September 1801, he attended the coronation of the Empe- ror Alexander at Moscow; where (in October), he signed a treaty with the Danish Plenipotentiary, in virtue of which, that Crown became an acceding party to the Convention of St. Petersburgh. He also concluded, in March 1802, a similar treaty with the Ple- nipotentiary of the Crown of Sweden; and, having thus accom- plished all the objects of his mission to Russia, he returned to England in the autumn of the same year. He has since had the honour of being appointed one of the Lords of the King's Bed chamber; an office which he was led to accept, by his sentiments of personal attachment and duty to that truly virtuous and excellent Sovereign, to whom he has been in- debted for so many gracious and unsolicited marks of favour. But from the impaired state of his health, and other considera- tions, he is now unfeignedly desirous of being permitted to retire 166 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. from all further business, and to pass the remainder of his life amidst the comforts of repose and Jeisure,and of the society of his friends and family. To this reward he conceives himself to be fairly entitled, by the anxious labours of nearly thirty years; and amongst its chief enjoyments will be the conscious recollection, that, in the discharge of all the more important commissions here enumerated, as well as of many others of lesser moment, it was no less constantly his good fortune, than it was uniformly the earnest and primary wish of his heart, to be materially instru- mental in restoring or confirming the blessings of peace.''11 n The private memoir, from whence the biographical notices in the latter part of this article are drawn, is closed with the following just and interesting remarks: " It has been well observed by an ancient writer, that ' history is phi- losophy teaching by example;' a definition which may justly belong even to so confined a species of historical writing as the account of a private family, if it describes not merely the genealogy, but the virtuous lives or actions of the indi- viduals whom it records: since it thus tends to impart to their posterity, both the knowledge of what is praise-worthy, and the desire of practising it. All the nearest relations of the present family of Fitzherbert were men of business. Those among them who were heirs to easy fortunes, having been endowed with hearts and understandings, which led them to contemn a life of idleness, and to adopt such useful and honourable pursuits, 2s might enable them to confer bene- fits upon others, and to deserve well of their country; they had a relish for learning and the arts; and they were lovers of peaceful employments and of peace itself, in preference to warfare and the occupations belonging to it. Above all, foyalty to their Sovereign, and attachment to monarchy, distinguished them from a remote period; and at the same time they were careful to temper it by a sincere regard for the British constitution, and for those principles of genuine and well- regulated Liberty, which form its chief characteristic and excellence." As Lord St. Helens is descended in the female line from the celebrated judge, Sir Anthonv Fitzherbert of Nor bury, already mentioned, it may not be improper to say something more of that learned man here. Sir Anthony was third son of Ralph Fitzherbert of Norbury, by Elizabeth, daughter and sole heir of John Marshall, of Upton and Sedisha'l, co. Leic. He was educated at Oxford and afterwards studying the law, attained the rank of Serjeant, November 18th, 15 10; and in 1522, was knighted, and made one of the Judges of the Common Fleas; in which, carrying himself with great pru- dence, justice, and knowledge, he became at length the oracle of the law; and was admired by all for his profundity in it. He was author of various works, not only on law, but on hushandiy ; some of wnich are now exceedingly rare (see Ce/isura Literaria; and British Bibliographer.) His great work, De JSatura Bre~ ■vium, is highly praised for its utility by Blackstone; who culls it, " A Digest of that most ancient and highly venerable Collection of Forms, the register of such writs as are suable out )f the King',', Courts: in which every man who is injured, will be sure to find a method of relief exactly adapted to his own case, described within the compass of a few lines, and yet w.thout the omission of any material circumstance."

Two grandsons, Thomas and Nicholas, were learned Ecclesiastics of the Catholic persuasion; and died, one in 1640, st. 88; the o.her in 1612, both at Rome. Anthony Fitziierbert, father of Elizabeth, wife of Sir John Finherbert, of Thsington, appears to have been son of John, second son of the Judge. (See T4 guns each, the Echo sloop, and some Indiamen with troops, he immediately sent proposals to the Governor of the Cape, to surrender that settlement to his Majesty's arms; which being refused, the nece-sary measures were taken to reduce the place by force. In this attack the America had two men killed, and four wounded, and the Stately only one man wounded. On board the other vessels the enemy's shot did some damage, but none were killed or wounded. In the bay were five Dutch East Indiamen, which were taken possession of: three of them from Batavia, with valuable cargoes on boaid, and two from Amsterdam, which 174 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. had delivered their cargoes previous to the arrival of the British squadron. The next day the enemy endeavoured to regain the important position they had lost; having drawn out their whole forces from the Cape Town, with eight field pieces, but were every where repulsed. Upon this occasion Captain Hardy, of the Echo, and Lieutenant Coffin, of the Rattlesnake, particularly distinguished themselves; " having (according to the General's report) crossed the water with the seamen and marines under their command, received the enemy's fire without returning a shot, and manoeuvred with a regularity that would not have discredited veteran troops.'- Jt cannot be improper here to remark, nor is it foreign to our subject, that our seamen and marines have invariably acted in the same laudable manner, and deserve similar honourable com- mendations, whenever they have served on shore with the land- forces. From this time nothing took place but some partial and un- important operations, till the 4th of September, when the Ad- miral was joined in the bay by fourteen sail of Indiamen, hav- ing on board a large body of troops, under the command of Major-General Alured Clarke. Upon this accession of strength, the Admiral and General determined to make an immediate at- tack upon the Cape Town; accordingly, the troops, artillery, and stores, were landed with the greatest expedition from the India- men, which was completely effected by the 1 4 1 h ; and on the morning of that day the army began its march, each man carrying four days provisions, and the volunteer seamen from the Indiamen, dragging the cannon through a deep sand. At Wyneber, a post at a small distance from the Cape Town, the Dutch had planted nine pieces of cannon, and collected their forces, as they had determined to make a firm stand; but they were so resolutely pushed by the British troops, as to be under the necessity of abandoning their position; and nearly at the same time they were alarmed by the appearance of Commodore Blanket, with three ships, which the Admiral had detached into Table Bav, to cause a diversion on that side. Further resistance on the part of the Dutch being now fruitless, the Governor sent out, the same evening, an officer with a flag of truce to solicit a suspension of arms for forty-eight hours, in order to settle the terms of capi- tulation: this was agreed to for twenty-four hours; and the articles of surrender, which were very favourable to the unfortunate colo- aists, and bespoke the highest probity, disinterestedness, and LORD KEITH. 175 humanity in the British Commander*, being settled, Cape Town and its dependencies were next morning put into the hands of the British troops. Thus fell the Cape of Good Hope, one of the fairest posses- sions of the Dutch in the East, and at former periods one of the most flourishing colonies that the industry of man had ever planted at so great a distance from the mother country; but, at the time of its surrender, in a condition ot decrepitude and weakness ana- logous to that into which the parent state in Europe had fallen. As a naval station, it proved highly useful during the continuance of the war, by affording a shelter to our ships, and a convenient place of refreshment for their crews; and by facilitating the ex- peditions which afterwards took place against some of the Dutch settlements in the Indian seas, as well as those to the Red Sea^ connected with the French invasion of Egypt. In his dispatches to the Secretary of State, General Clarke made the following honourable mention of our Admiral, which it would be improper in this place to omit: " The general cha- racter of Sir George Keith Elphinstone (says he), and his ardent desire to serve his country, are too well known to receive addi- tional lustre from any thing I could say on that subject; but I should do injustice to my own feelings, if I did not express the obligations I am under for the ready and cordial co-operation and assistance that he afforded upon every occasion, which so emi- nently contributed to the successful issue of our joint endeavours." A. former dispatch from Major-General Craig, has the following passage: " My sense of the obligation I am under to Sir George Elphinstone, is such, as I should not do justice to in an attempt to express it: his advice, his active assistance, and cordial co- operation on every occasion, have never been wanting, and entitle him to my warmest gratitude." Whatever was the state of decay into which the colony of the Cape of Good Hope had fallen, as it was likely to prove a valuable addition to the strength of Britain in that quarter, and particularly as a point from whence the Dutch settlements in India could be attacked, with great probability of success, it was determined, on the part of the new Government of the Batavian Republic, to make a strenuous effort for its recovery. Accordingly a squadron of nine ships of war, and a store-ship, sailed from Holland in the spring of the year 1796, for the express purpose of retaking the Cape of Good Hope, and arrived off Saldanha Bay early in the month of August. Admiral Elphinstone having received intelli- 176 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. gence that a hostile fleet was off the coast, he put to sea in quest of them, and was so fortunate as to discover them at moorings in Saldanha Bay. He immediately dispatched an officer to the Dutch Com- mander with a request that, to prevent the effusion of human blood, he would surrender the squadron under his command to the British fleet, intimating, that resistance to a force so superior must expose them to certain destruction. Admiral Lucas, the Dutch Admiral, perceiving that it was impossible to escape, and that opposition would be fruitless, surrendered the whole of his fleet on terms of capitulation on the l/th of August. After the performance of these services, Admiral Elphinstone quitted the command at the Cape, and sailed for Europe in the month of October. He arrived at Crookhaven, in the Monarch, with the Daphne in company, on the 22d of December; and having learned that the French fleet was upon the coast, and had been dispersed by a gale of wind, made exery preparation to put to sea in quest of them. His laudable exertions, however, proved unavailing 3 for before he could get to sea, the French ships had either fallen into the hands of our cruisers, or, favoured by the extreme stormy weather which at that time prevailed, had re- gained their own harbours. On the 7th of March, 1 797 > his Majesty was pleased to confer on Admiral Elphinstone the dignity or a Baron of the kingdom of Ireland, by the title of Lord Keith, on account of his eminent services at the Cape of Good Hope; and in the month of May the same year, he was sent to Sheerness, on one of the most un- pleasant occasions on which an Officer could be employed, to superintend the naval preparations against the mutineers, who at that time unhappily held the command of several of his Majesty's ships at the Nore, and had committed various acts of insubordi- nation and outrage. This threatening storm being dispelled, Lord Keith for a short time commanded a detachment of the Channel fleet, and had his flag flying on board the Queen Char- lotte, a ship never to be forgotten in the annals of the British navy. Towards the latter part of the year 1798, Lord Keith had his flag on board the Foudroyant, of 80 guns, one of the ships em- ployed off Cadiz and in the Mediterranean, under the orders of the Earl of St. Vincent ; and on the 14th of February, I /Q{), he was promoted from Vice Admiral of the Blue to be Vice-Admiral of the Bed. On the 23d of June the same year, the Earl of St. LORD KEITH. i;; Vincent resigned to him the command of the Mediterranean fleet, and returned to England for the recovery of his health. The season for brilliant operations was in some degree over in that quarter, in consequence of the severe losses which the enemy had sustained, and were in no condition to repair; but much praise was due to Lord Keith for the excellent disposition of the force under his command, and the judgment with which he stationed his cruisers, so that few of the enemy's vessels ventured out of port without falling into the hands of some of our ships of war. On the 1/th of March, 1800, Lord Keith had the misfortune to lose his flag-ship, the Queen Charlotte, by fire, in Leghorn roads; by this melancholy accident upwards of 600 gallant men lost their lives, and one of the noblest ships in the British navy was destroyed. Lord Keith was on shore at Leghorn at the time the conflagration happened ; and hoisted his flag on board the Audacious, and afterwards shifted it to the Minotaur. His Lord- ship then proceeded with part of his fleet off Genoa, which place contained a strong French garrison under General Massena, and was besieged by an Austrian army under General Melas. As there was little probability of being able to reduce the place by any other means than famine, it was an object of the greatest im- portance that all supplies by sea should be cut off; and this ser- vice was so effectually performed by the squadron under Lord Keith, that in the beginning of June the French General was obliged to capitulate, being reduced to the greatest extremity for want of provisions. On the 1st of January, 1801, a general promotion of Flag- officers took place in honour of the Union between Great Britain and Ireland; and on that occasion Lord Keith was advanced to be Admiral of the Blue. His flag this year was on board the Foudroyant, of 80 guns, and he commanded the naval force employed against the French on the coast of Egypt. His conduct on this important station was fully equal to the high promise which his exploits on former occasions held forth to his country; and on the surrender of the French army in Egypt, Lord Keith was on December 15th, 1801, created a Peer of Great Britain, by the title of Lord Keith, with remainder, on failure of issue male of his body, to his daughter. He also received the thanks of both Houses of Parliament, and VOL. IX.

Mention has already been made of the battle of Aboukir, and of the death of the gallant leader of the British forces on that occasion, under the article of Abercromby. The chief command then fell (as has been stated) to General Hutchinson. Under him the French were driven from Rosetta; from Rahmanich; and finally from Alexandria, which surrendered on September 2d, 1801. The operations against the enemy's works commenced on August 17th. " I have the honour (says the General, in his dispatch to Lord Hobart) to inclose you a copy of the capitulation, and also a list of the number of persons for whom the enemy have required ship- ping; by this it appears, that the total of the garrison of Alexandria consisted of upwards of eight thousand soldiers, and one thousand three hundred sailors. This arduous and important service has at length been brought to a conclusion.

LORD ELLENBOROUGH. 18? LAW, LORD ELLENBOROUGH. Edmund Law, Bishop of Carlisle, who died August 14th, 1787, at his seat at Rose Castle, in Cumberland, in his eighty-fifth year, was the father of the present Peer. This venerable prelate was born in the parish of Cartmel, in Lancashire, in 1720. His father was a clargyman, descended from a family3 which had been situated at Askham, in West- moreland. He received his education at the schools of Cartmel and Ken- dal ; from the latter of which he went to St. John's College, Cambridge. In 1723, he took his degree of B. A. and in 1727, M. A. and was elected Fellow of Christ College. In 173/> he was presented by the University to the rectory of Greystoke, in Cumberland ; where, in 1739, he went to reside, and in 1713, was appointed Archdeacon of Carlisle. In 1749, he took his degree of D. D. and in 1754, was elected Master of St. Peters College, Camlridge, and served the office of Vice-Chancellor. In 1760, he was elected Principal Librarian; and in 17^4, Professor of Casuistical Divinity. In 17<53, he was preferred to the Archdeaconry of Staffordshire, and a prebend in the church of Lichfield, by his friend and former pupil, Dr. Corn- wallis, Archbishop of Canterbury, then Bishop of Lichfield and Coventry. In 1764, a Prebend of Lincoln, and in I/67, the twelfth stall of the church of Durham, were conferred upon him by the inte- rest of the late Duke of Newcastle. a Law, the Projector (for a full account of whose family, see Nichols's Lei- cestershire) bore the same arms, 188 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. In February Ijty, he was promoted to the See op Carlisle, by the unsolicited recommendation of the Duke of Grafton, who had a short time before been elected Chancellor of the University of Cambridge. He was first known to the public by a translation of Arch- bishop Kings " Essay upon the Origin of Evil, with Notes" into which were introduced most of the important topics of natural re- ligion. This work appeared in 1729. In 1734, he published, " An Enquiry into the Ideas of Space, Time, Immensity, and Eternity;" and in 1745, Considerations on the Theory of Religion; to which were subjoined, " Reflections on the Life and Character of Christ; a Discourse on the Nature and End of Death under the Christian Covenant; and an Appendix, concerning the use of the word Soul, or Spirit, in Holy Scripture, and the state of the Dead there described." Besides these his larger works, he pub- lished a tract upon the nature and end of catechising ; several pieces in the controversy concerning an intermediate state; and in 1774, a pamphlet, intituled, Considerations on the Propriety of requiring a Subscription to Articles of Faith. During the early part of his residence in the University, he enjoyed the friendship of the late eminent Dr. Jortin; and for many years carried on a correspondence with Dr. Hartley, upon the subject of that author's celebrated work. He preserved a long intimacy with the learned Archdeacon of Cleveland, whose death happened at nearly the same age, and same time. With these excellent persons he was united, as well in an anxious and diligent search after moral and evangelical truth, as in a cordial love of civil and religious liberty .b b ' Our old correspondent Eugenio* (says the Gent. Mag.) * has furnished us with the following character of this good Prelate, from the MSS. of the late Rev. John [ones. " Dr. Law, a gentleman of excellent parts, extensive learning, great integrity, and of a most sweet, benevolent, and Christian disposition; very modest, free, and open in conversation, devoid of ceremony; an honour to his country, and to the University wherein he presides. His character is universally known, and approved by all wise and good men. I shall here minute down only a few particulars, the rest may be added afterwards. 1 heard him with great pleasure perform his exercise for his Doctor's degree, at the public Schools in Cambridge, January 1748-9. Dr. Parne, the Moderator pro tempore, was his opponent, who (I believe) was foiled. The Moderator soon after grew mad, and died. One great Doctor (head of a great college) refused to sign his testimonial ; saying, ' h; did not like either his person or his doctrine.' Yet afterwards was leconciled, when Law became head of St. Peter's College, and made him frequent visits, &c. Dr. Garnet (brother to the Bishop of Femes), dining, as I also did, LORD ELLENBOROUGH. 18$ His Lordship married Miss Christian, daughter of John Chris- tian, of Unerigg, in the county of Cumberland, Esq. and had issue, First, Bridget, who died an infant. Second, Edmund, who died young. Third, John, the late Lord Bishop of Elphin, a man of emi- nent talents, who was supposed to have assisted his friend, Dr. Paley, in the composition of his Moral and Political Philosophy. He died at his house on St. Stephen's Green, Dublin, March 19th, 1810 j leaving no issue by his wife, Anne, widow of Tom- linson, Esq. of Carlisle. Fourth, Mary, married to the Rev. James-Stephen Lushing- ton, late Vicar of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, deceased, by whom she with the former of these two, told him he was going to pay a visit that afternoon to Dr. Law. « You do very well (said the entertainer), I respect him, although I cannot approve of his opinions in some things, and opposed his degree.' Dr. G. said, < Whatever his opinions be, this is very certain, and allowed by all, that he is a sweet-tempered man, an excellent scholar, and a true Christian.' The other assented. I waited on Law that evening, and told him what had passed. • Yes (said he), we begin now, though contrary to my expectation, and without my seeking, to be pretty thick; and I thank God, who reconciles me to my ad- versaries.' A certain great author, who did not at all know him, nor his cha- racter, said (very uncharitably), that he must be a wicked man for proposing such an opinion. His wife, an excellent woman; a Christian in disposition, as well as name. They have sustained great afflictions with great resignation. Many children, and great charge. Their income not even yet answerable. On Sundays, in the afternoon, he instructed the young men of his college^ designed for orders, in the original language, sense, and design of the New Testament, and of the Old, in the Hebrew, &c. and has nothing more at heart than teaching the Christian religion in its native purity and simplicity, of which he was a complete master. Archbishop Potter, he told me, disliked his doctrine about inspiration; and re- proved him. Warburton told him, he disparaged the church by which he got his bread. Archbishop Herring, on hearing of his Thesis at Cambridge, said to him, ' I neither justify nor condemn you. If your doctiine be right, I am no loser; if wrong, I am but as I was: I am in the hands of a just and merciful God, to whom I wholly commit myself. I believe his Gospels, and am persuaded you do so as much as I, though we may have different sentiments about some particulars. We shall both of us, I hope, meet in Heaven.' When, in going his rounds to the heads of houses, presently after his keeping this act, he came to Dr. Castle (the worthy Master of Corpus Christ! College), he said to him, in his blunt and honest manner, ' 1 know that this is reckoned a Socinian tenet; but I believe you deserve the degree, and will readily sign your testimonial.' In his return from London and Cambridge, after this bout, he kindly called upon me at Alconbury, related to me many particulars, staid a night, and would put me to na expense." J.

This is a different family, in the male line, from the family ot Sands of the Vine, in Hampshire, who were elevated to the Peerage by King Henry VIII. The pedigree of this family, as recorded in the Heralds Visi- tations of Lancaster, "Cambridge, and Bucks, made in the years 1567, 1619, and 1634, begins with Robert Sandes, of St. Bees,71 in Cumberland^ who had two sons, First, John, of Furness Fells, in Lancashire, of whom pre- sently. Second, Thomas, father of Roger, whose son, William, had Robert and William, who married Elizabeth, daughter of Wil- liam Orford, by whom he bad a son, Robert, who married Elea- nor, daughter of John Skelton; and four daughters, Jennet, Eli- zabeth, Mabell, and Joan.

This George Sandes (who in the early editions of this work s erroneously called William) writes himself of Estwaite Fur- nese, in the county of Lancaster, in his last will and testament, which bears date April 23d, 1548, 2 Edward VI. and by the preamble, he appears to be a Protestant : his words are, ' Con- sidering the uncertainty of my life, I commit my soul into the custody and hand of our Saviour Jesus Christ, trusting surely, that through the sprinkling of his blood, 1 shall be partaker of the inheritage prepared for the faithful.' The rest of his will shews him to be a person of sound reason- ing and judgment; and he made an equal disposition of his estate among his children, of whom, as therein appears, was George Sandes, who died in his lifetime, and left a son, Roger Sandes, to whom he bequeathed half of Watside- park, &c. which George was slain at Muselborough-field, on September 10th, 154/, in battle against the Scots. To his son, Christopher, he left his estate at Gaithwaite, in Lancashire, with other lands, after the death of his mother. He died without issue male, leaving only two daughters. To William, his son, jointly with his brother Christopher, he bequeaths his lease of Hawkshead-church, and three bloom smiddyes, with all the ore which he had in Mithland and Low- Furnese, paying to Miles and Anthony, his sons, and their bro- thers, a hundred pounds. This William died without issue. He further wills to his said sons, Miles and Anthony, equally and jointly, all his rights in Louson-p3rk, Parkamore, and the one half of Watside-park; also divers other lands and leases to William and Christopher before mentioned; and legacies to his daughter, Anne; and to his grand-daughters, Agnes, Marga- garet, and Elizabeth, daughters of George Sandes. Then fol- lows: ' I will also, that my son, Edwin Sandes, vicar of Havershavi, shall have of my goods, &c. 201. desiring him heartily, upon my blessing, to see this my last will and testament fulfilled, and good rule and loving order to be had among his mother's brethren, and sisters, and children of my said son George. Moreover, it is my will and mind, that in case any of ray sons, or others, be vol. ix. o 194 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND, not contented, lovingly and jointly, to fulfil this my last will, that then they, which offend and break this my said will and testament, shall forfeit all such possessions, &c. bequeathed to them; and the same to be at the sight of John Preston, Esq. and other supervisors of this my said last will and testament." He constitutes his sons, William, Christopher, Miles, and Anthony, his executors; and John Preston, Esq. his son, Edwin Sandes, vicar of Haversham; William Dixon, Miles Dixon, Thomas Benson, Richard Mackereith, William Sawrey, Miles Sawrey, and Richard Sandes, of Lancaster, supervisors; appoint- ing, that if his estate be not sufficient to discharge the legacies, that they should then be lessened, at the discretion of Mr. Pres- ton, and Edwin Sandes, his son, vicar of Haversham. From Anthony Sandes, the third son, descended Miles San- dys, of Garthwaite-hall, in the parish of Hawkshead, in Lanca- shire. Of Edwin, the fourth son, I am principally to treat.

He married Mary, youngest daughter of William, Earl of Salisbury, and dying without issue in 1668, was succeeded in the honour by Henry, Lord Sandys, his brother and heir, who dying unmarried, as did also his bro- thers, the title lies dormant. The second son of Miles Sandys, beforementioned, was s Sir William Sandys, of Flatbury, in Worcestershire,'1 and of Mis- senden, in Gloucestershire, from whom the family at Missenden, and Brimsfield, in Gloucestershire, descend. Sir George, the third son, died without issue; but from Henry, the fourth son, who was of Harwood, in com. Bucks, and manied Mary, daugh- ter of Sir Richard Conquest, of Houghton-Conquest, in com. Bedf. Knt. a progeny is yet remaining. I now return to Edwin Sandys, Archbishop of York (the fourth son of Grorge), of whom, and his descendants, I am prin- cipally to treat. As he was distinguished for his great learning and eminent abilities, and one of the first reformers of our reli- gion from Popery, divers authors have given some account of him, without a due consideration or examination of facts, particularly as to the place of his birth: it is said by some to be at London; by others, at Conisby, in Yorkshire; but 'by the famous Mr. Dodsworth, the antiquary, it is positively asserted to be at Hawks- head, within the liberty of Furnese, in Lancashire; who alledges, that in token thereof, he built a free school there, and endowed it with 301. per annum, for a master and usher, out of lands in Hawkshead, and several tenements in Yorkshire. It is governed by trnstees, according to statutes given them by the said Arch- bishop; and over the door of the school is placed a fine stone, on which is engraved his arms, and the following inscription: Memoriae reverendissimi doctoris divinitatis Edwini Sandys, eboraci olim archiepiscopi, Scholse hujus fundatoris, Daniel Rawlinson, civis Londini, Grais- dale com.

He was one of the first who conformed to the Protestant religion, and for the constant profession of that faith, chose a voluntary exile in Germany, during all the reign of Queen Mary. His troubles and imprisonment are reported at large by Mr. Fox, in his Book of Martyrs, out of which I shall recite some particulars, which shew him to be a person of courage, honour, and integrity. He was educated in St. John's college in Cambridge, and took his degree of Doctor of Divinity in that university, k before the month of September, 1552, when he had a grant of a prebend within the church of Carlisle, vacant by the death of Bellas. In 1549, 3 Edward VI. he1 was Master of Catherine-hall, and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cambridge; and so truly zealous for the reformation, that fearing1" an alteration in religion, he shewed himself of the party of the Lady Jane. Francis Godwin, Bishop of Hereford," gives this account of him: " Having, by Northumberland's command, in the pulpit, impugned Queen Mary's cause, and defended that of the Lady Jane, he behaved him- self with such wisdom and moderation, although upon the short warning of some few hours, that he abundantly satisfied the Duke, and yet did not so deeply incur the displeasure of the ad- verse party, but that his friends prevailed with the Queen for his pardon; so that after a year's imprisonment he was set at liberty, and presently fled over into Germany. After the death of Queen Mary, returning from voluntary exile, he was consecrated Bishop of Worcester, from which See he was translated to London, and thence again to the Archbishoprick of York. A man, for his learning, virtue, wisdom, and extract, very famous ; but more especially happy in his issue, whereof many were admirable for their endowments, both internal and external, and of whom wc have, in our age, seen three honoured with knighthood." July 25th, being St. James's day, 1553, he° was brought pri- soner from Cambridge, and committed to the Tower, with the Duke of Northumberland, and others of quality. Queen Mary, before King Edward's laws were repealed, and particularly that act for the communion service,? procured Dr John Young, Master of Pembroke-hall (who had made himself famous for contesting with Martin Bucer, in Edward VI's time), to be chosen Vice- Chancellor of the University of Cambridge; and the noted Ste- k Strype's Memorials, Eccl. & Civil.

BARONESS SANDYS. 197 phen Gardiner, the restored Bishop of Winchester, and Chancellor of the university, having wrote to the society of Catharine-hall, recommending Mr. Cosin to be chosen their Master, in the room of Dr. Sandys, because he was married, they, for their own safety, thought it convenient to comply. The same author observes/' that after about a year's imprison- ment he was discharged, and observing the fury coming on all that were resolved to stick to the true religion, and would not comply with the newly restored papal superstitions, he made his escape out of England, and took up his residence at Strasburgh, where the Gospel was professed, and where he openly declared himself a Protestant. He had for his companions, John Poynet, Bishop of Winchester, Edmund Grindal, afterwards Archbishop of York, and Canterbury, successively, with others of the clergy j and these learned Knights, Sir John Cheeke, Sir Richard Morri- son, Sir Anthony Cooke, Sir Peter Carew, Sir Thomas Wroth, and many more, mentioned by Bayle. But I shall now recite some particulars of his troubles. rThe Duke of Northumberland, after he came to Cambridge with his army, sent for Dr. Sandys, the Vice-Chancellor, Dr. Par- ker, Dr. Bill, and Mr. Leaver, to sup with him; and among other speeches, said, ' Masters, pray for us, that we speed well,' &c. and required Dr. Sandys to preach on the morrow. The warning was short for such an auditory, yet he did not refuse, but went into his chamber, and so to bed. He rose at three of the clock in the morning, took his bible in his hand, and earnestly prayed to God that it might fall open where a most fit text should be for him to treat of. The bible fell open upon the first chapter of Joshua, where he found a text for that time, the most convenient he could have chosen. Responderuntque Josuce atque dixerunt, omnia, qucs prcecepisti nobis, faciemus, et quocunque miseris ibimus: sicut obedivimus in cunctis Mosi, ita obedimus et tibi, tantum sit Dominus Deus tuus tecum, sicut fuit cum Mose, qui contradixerit ori tuo, et non obedierit cunctis sermonibus quos praceperis ei, moriatur, tu tantum comfortare, et viriliter age. This text most fitly served for the purpose; and as God gave the text, so (saith my author) gave he such order and utterance, as drew many tears from the audience. In the time of his sermon, one of the guard lifted unto him, in the pulpit, a mass book, and a grail, taken the night before by 9 Sttype"s Memorials, Vol. III. p. 146, 147. 1 Fox's Book of Martyrs, Vol. III. p. 7S7. 193 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. Sir George Haward, with certain of the guard, out of Mr. Hurle- ston's house, where Lady Miry heard mass, and had not been long gone. The Duke, with the rest of the nobility, required Dr. Sandys to put his sermon in writing, and appointed Mr. Leaver to go to London, and get it printed. Dr. Sandys required one day and a half for writing it, and at the day appointed, Mr. Leaver came ready booted to receive it of him. As he was deli- vering of it, Mr. Adams, one of the beadles, came weeping, and prayed him to shift for himself, the Duke being retired, and Queen Mary proclaimed. Dr. Sandys shewed no concern at what was said, but delivered the sermon written. The Duke of Northumberland that night sent for Dr. Sandys, to proclaim Queen Mary in the market-place at Cambridge, and told him she was a merciful woman, and that he had sent to know her plea- sure, and looked for a general pardon. The Doctor replied, ' My life is not de?r unto me, neither have I said or done any thing that urgeth my conscience ; for what I have spoke of the state, I have instructions warranted by the subscriptions of six- teen counsellors; neither yet have I spoke further than the word of God and the laws of the realm do warrant me; come of me what God will; but be assured you shall never escape death, for if she should save you, those that now rule will kill you.' That night the guard apprehended the Duke, and certain grooms of the stable were as busy with Dr. Sandys; but Sir John Gates, laying in his house, sharply rebuked them, and drove them away. The next day he advised the Doctor to walk in the fields; and in the mean time, the University, contrary to all order, had met together in consultation, and ordered Dr. Mouse, and Dr. Hatcher, to repair to Dr. Sandys's apartments, and fetch away the statute book of the University, the keys, and such other things as were in his keeping, which they did. Dr. Mouse had been an earnest Protestant the day before, but was now turned Papist; and though Dr. Sandys had done much for him, he was now his great enemy. The bell ringing for their meeting, Dr. Sandys returned out of the fields, and sending for the beadles, required them to wait on him to the schools, according to their duty. No sooner was the Doctor (the beadles going before him) come into the regent house, and had taken his chair, but Dr. Mouse, with a rabble of unlearned Papists, went into a by-school, and conspired to pull him out of his chair. Dr. Sandys began his oration, — expostulating with the Uni- versity, charging them w^th great ingratitude 3 declaring he had BARONESS SANDYS. 199 aaid nothing in his sermon but what he was ready to justify; and their case was the same with his, they having not only concealed, but consented to that which he had spoken. And as he was re- membering them how beneficial he had been to their University, and their unthankfulness to him, Dr. Mouse came in again with his conspirators, about twenty in number. One laid hand on the chair, to pull it from him; another told him that was not his place; and another called him traitor: but being of great cou- rage, and perceiving they used violence, he drew a dagger, and had dispatched some of them, if Dr. Bill, and Dr. Blith, had not fallen upon him, and prayed him for God's sake to hold his hands, and patiently bear that great offered wrong. By their persuasions he was contented, and the tumult ceasing, he ended his oration; and having monies of the University, he there deli- vered the utmost farthing. He gave up the books, reckonings, and keys, and surrendered his office, ' praying God to give the University a better officer, and to give them more thankful hearts,' and so repaired to his own college. The day after there came to him Mr. Jerningham, and Mr, Thomas Mild may; Jerningham told him it was the Queen's pleasure that two of the guards should attend on him, and that he must be carried prisoner to the Tower of London, with the Duke of Northumberland. Mr. Mildmay said, he marvelled, that a learned man would speak so unadvisedly against so good a Prin- cess, and wilfully run into such danger. Dr. Sandys replied, ' I shall not be ashamed of bonds, but if I could do as Mr. Mildmay can, I need not to fear bonds: for you came down against Queen Mary, and armed in the field, and now return for Queen Mary; before a traitor, and now a great friend. I cannot, with one mouth, blow hot and cold after this sort.' On this, his stable was robbed of four excellent geldings, and an inventory taken of all his goods by Mr. Moor, beadle of the University. He was set on a lame horse, that halted to the ground, which a friend of his perceiving, prayed that he might lend him a nag, to which the yeoman of the guard consented. At the end of the town some Papists resorted thither to jeer him; and some of his friends, who mourned for him, to take their leave of him. He was guarded, with the Duke, and others to London, and coming in at Bishopsgate, one, like a milk-wife, hurled a stone at him, which hit him on the breast, so as like to have made him fall from his horse; to whom he mildly said, ' Woman, God forgive it thee.' Ashe came through Towei hill -street, another 200 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND woman, standing in her door, cried, ' Fie on thee, thou knave, thou knave, thou traitor, thon heretic!' whereat he smiling, she said, Look, the desperate heretic laughs at this jeer. On which a wo- man on the other side of the street, answered, Fie on thee, neigh- bour, thou art not worthy to be called woman, railing upon this gentleman, whom thou knowest not, neither yet the cause wdiy he is thus treated. Then she said, Good gentleman, God be thy comfort, and give thee strength to stand in God's cause, even to the end. Thus he passed into the Tower, the first prisoner, on St. James's day. The yeomen of the guard took from him his borrowed nag, and what else soever he had. His man, Quinting Swainton, brought after him a Bible, and some shirts, and such like things; the Bible was sent in to him, but the shirts, &c. the yeomen of the guard kept. After he had been in the Tower three weeks, in a bad prison, he was put into Nun's-bower, a better prison, and with him Mr. John Bradford. On October 1st, 1553, the day of Queen Mary's coronation, their prison door was set open (ever shut before) and Mr. Mitchel, his old acquaintance, who had been a prisoner in the same place, came in to him, and said, * There is such a stir in the Tower, that neither gates, or prisoners, are looked to this day. Take my cloak, my hat, and my rapier; you may go out of the gates, without being questioned; save yourself, and let me do as I may.' A rare friendship: but he replied, ' 1 know no just cause why I should be in prison, and thus to do, were to make myself guilty; I will expect God's will; yet must I think myself most bounden to you.' On which Mr. Mitchel, finding him re- solute, departed. Whilst Dr. Sandys, and Mr. Bradford, were in close prison twenty-nine weeks, Mr. John Bowler, a very perverse Papist, was their keeper; yet, by often conference with him, at length began to dislike Popery, and to favour the Gospel; so that on a Sunday, when they had mass in the chapel, he brought the service-book, a manchette, and a glass of wine; and Dr. Sandys ministered the communion, according to the reformed religion, to Bradford, and to Bowler. When Wyat was in arms against Queen Mary, Dr. Cranmer, Dr. Ridley, and Mr. Bradford, were cast into one prison; and Dr. Sandys, with others, were sent to the Marshalsea : and Wyat coming into Southwark with his army, he sent two gentlemen into the Marshalsea to Dr. Sandys, to let him know he should be glad of his company and advice, and that the gates should be set BARONESS SANDYS. 20] open to all the prisoners ; but the Doctor desired him to tell Wyat, ' It this rising be of God, it will take place; if not, it will fall: for his part, he was committed by order, and would be discharged by the like order, or would never depart.' Thomas Way, the keeper of the Marshalsea, appointed unto every preacher a man to lead him in the street for the air, but he himsi-lf walked with Dr. Sandys; and discoursing very familiarly with him, the people took notice of him, and prayed to God to comfort him, and strengthen him in the truth; on which the Keeper said to the Doctor, ' I perceive the vain people would set you forward to the fire; you are as vain as they; if you, being a young man, will stand in your oven conceits, and prefer your own knowledge before the judgment of so many worthy prelates, an- cient, learned, and grave men, as be in this realm; if you so do, you shall find me as strait a keeper, as one that utterly disliketh your religion.' Dr. Sandys replied, ' I know my years young, and my learning small; it is enough to know Christ crucified; and he hath learned nothing, that seeth not the great blasphemy that is in Popery. I will yield unto God, and not unto man. I have read in the scriptures of many godly and courteous keepers; God may make you one; if not, I tiust he will give me strength and patience to bear your hard dealing with me.' On which the Keeper said, ' Do ye then mind to stand to your religion ? ' Yea (said the Doctor) by God's grace.' ( Truly (saith the keeper) I love ye the better; 1 did but tempt you. What favours I can shew you, ye shall be sure of, and I shall think myself happy if I may die at the stake with you.' And he ever after shewed Dr. Sandys all friendship. He laid him in the best cham- ber in the house, and would not suffer the Marshal's men to lay fetters on him, as others had. He sundry times suffered him to walk alone in the fields; and permitted his wife, Mr. Sandys's daughter of Essex, a gentlewoman beautiful both in body and mind, to resort to him; they had the communion there three or four times, and a great resort of communicants, who offered Dr. Sandys money, but he would receive none. He was then in the prime of life, and admired for his learning, eloquence, sobriety, and other virtuous morals. His exhortations to the people were delivered with that energy, as drew tears from many, and made them abhor the mass. After he had been nine weeks prisoner in the Marshalsea, he was set at liberty, by the mediation of Sir Thomas Holcroft, the Knight Marshal. Sir Thomas sued earnestly to Dr. Gardiner, 202 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. Bishop of Winchester, for his deliverance, but could not prevail, except Dr. Sandys would be one of their sect; and then, he said, he should want nothing. He wrung at last out of the Bishop, that if the Queen could like of his deliverance, he would not be against it; which was Sir Thomas's last request. Thereupon he made interest with two ladies of the privy chamber to move the Queen to it, who was contented, if the Bishop of Winchester ap- proved of it. Sir Thomas watched his going to speak with the Queen, and followed him with a warrant for setting him at liberty; and prayed the two ladies to put the Queen in mind of Dr. Sandys. On which she said, ' Winchester, what think you of Dr. Sandys? is he not sufficiently punished? And Gardiner, renumbering his promise, said he was not against it, if her Ma- jesty liked to discharge him. Saith the Queen, ' Then truly we would he were set at liberty.' On which Sir Thomas Holcroft immediately offered the Queen the warrant, who signed the same, and caused Winchester to subscribe his name thereto. The war- rant was given to the Knight Marshal again; but as the Bishop went out from the Queen, he called to Holcroft, commanding him not to set Dr. Sandys at liberty, till he had taken sureties of two gentlemen, bound in a bond of 5001. each, that he should not depart the realm without licence. Holcroft also made it his business to find sureties for him; and having discoursed with two gentlemen of the North, friends and cousins of Dr. Sandys, they agreed to be bound in body, goods, and lands, for him. He then sent for the Doctor to his apartments at Westminster, requiring the keeper to accompany him. He came accordingly, and found Sir Thomas Holcroft in his garden alone, who immediately imparted to him his long suit, with the proceeding, and of what effect it had; much rejoicing he was so fortunate to procure him his liberty; and that nothing remained for him to do, but to enter into bonds, with his two sureties, not to depart the realm. The Doctor answered, ' I give God thanks, who hath moved your heart to mind me so well, and I think myself most bound to you; I hope God will requite you, and I never shall be found unthankful; but as you have dealt friendly with me, I will also deal plainly with you. I came a freeman into prison, I will not go forth a bondman. As I cannot benefit my friends, I will not hurt them; for if am set at liberty, I shall not stay six days in this realm, if I may get out. It there- fore I may not get forth free, send me to the Marshalsea again, and there you shall be sure of me.' BARONESS SANDYS. 203 Holcroft was much displeased with his answer, and told him a change would shortly come; the state was but a cloud, and would soon shake away; that his cousin, Sir Edward Bray, and his wife, would gladly receive him into his house, where hr never need come at church; and that Lady Bray hated Popery, adding, that he would not so deal with him, to li.se all his labour. But no persuasions could prevail with him to enter into bonds; which Holcroft perceiving, generously said, ' Seeing you cannot be altered, I will change my purpose, and yield unto you. Come of it what will, I will set you at liberty; and seeing you mind to go over sea, get you gone quickly as you can. One thing I require of you, that while you are there, you write nothing to come hither, for you may undo me.' He friendly kissed Dr. Sandys, bid him farewell, let me answer Winchester as I may; and com- manded the keeper to take no fees of him. Returning with the keeper to the Marshalsea, he staid there that night, and the nrxt day gave a dinner to all the prisoners, taking his farewell of them with many tears, particularly of Mr. Saunders, who, at his own request, was permitted by the keeper to be bis bed-fellow. Their parting was very sorrowful, with many tears, the one falling on the other's neck; and so he de- parted, clearly delivered, without examination or bond. From thence he went to the King's-bench, and there talked with Mr, Bradford, and Robert Farrer, Bishop of St. David's, then prison- ers. He comforted them, and they praised God for his happy deliverance. He went by Winchester's house and there took boat, and came to William Banks, his friend, in London, with whom he remained one night, and the next night shifted to an- other friend's house: and there he learned that search was made for him. Dr. Watson, and Mr. Christopherson, coming to the Bishop of Winchester's, Chancellor of England, told him, he had set at liberty the greatest heretic in England, and one who, of all others, had most corrupted the University of Cambridge. Whereupon the Bishop sent for all the constables of London, commanding them to watch for Dr. Sandys, then in the city; and whoever of them should bring him to him, should have five pounds for his labour. The Doctor, on knowledge cf this, for greater safety, conveyed himself by night to Mr. Bertie's house, a stranger, who had been a little time in the Marshalsea prison with him, and was a good Protestant, and dwelt in Mark-lane. There he was six days, and one or two of his friends repaired to him. He after- 204 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. wards went to Mr, Hurleston, a skinner, dwelling in Cornhill ; where he caused his man Quinting, to provide two geldings for him, in order to ride into Essex, to Mr. Sandys, his father-in-law, where his wife was. At his going to bed in Hurleston's house, he observed a pair of hose too long for him, made whilst he was in the Tower, by one Benjamin, a Protestant, dwelling in Birching-lane. He was not permitted to speak to him, or take any measure of him, but only look on his legs, whereby they were not made fit for him: these hose he prayed the mistress of the house to send to some taylor to cut them two inches shorter. She sent them by her boy to the next taylor, who chanced to go to Benjamin that made them, and was then a constable, and acquainted writh the Lord Chancellor's orders. The boy required him to cut the hose; on which he said, ' I am not thy master's taylor.' Whereupon the boy replied, ' My master's taylor dwelling far off, I came to you, as our ne£t neighbour; for it is far night, and he wants them early in the morning.' Benjamin knew his own work, and said, ' These are not thy master's hose, but Dr. Sandys's, which I made for him in the Tower.' ' Saith he, Go to thy mistress, pray her to sit up till twelve of the clock, and then I will bring the hose, and speak with the Doctor to his good.' At midnight, the mistress of the house, and Benjamin the taylor, went into Dr. Sandys's chamber, but prayed him not to be afraid of their coming. He answered, ' Nothing can be amiss; what God will, that shall be done.' On which Benjamin told him, ' he made his hose, and by what chance they came into his hands; God used the means, that he might admonish him of his peril, and advise him how to escape it.' He then acquainted him, that all the constables of London, whereof he was one, had orders to watch for him; and some were so greedily set, that they prayed, if he took him, to let them have his carriage to the Bishop of Winchester, and he should have the five pounds. He further told him, that it was known his man had provided two geldings, and his intentions to ride out at Aldgate in the morning, where he would surely be taken. ' Follow my advice (said he) and, by God's grace, you shall escape their hands. Let your man walk all the day in the street where your horses stand, booted and ready to ride; the good man's servant of the house shall take the horses, and carry them to Bethnal-green, and his master shall be booted, and follow after, as if he would ride. I will be here with you to-morrow, about eight of the clock. It is both term and BARONESS SANDYS. 205 parliament-time; and when the streets are full, we will go forth, look wildly, and if we meet your brother in the streets, know him not.' Accordingly Dr. Sandys, cloathed like a gentleman, in all re- spects, looking as one who had been long kept in prison, was conducted by Benjamin through Birching-lane, and from one lane to another, till he came to Moor-gate, and from thence to Bethnal- green. He there found the horses were ready, and Mr. Hurle- stone ready to ride with him as his man. The Doctor pulled on his boots, and taking his leave of Benjamin, would have given him great part of that little he had, but he refused it. However, Dr. Sandys on his return to England, remembered him thank- fully. He rode the same night to his father-in-law's, Mr. Sandys, where his wife was; but he had not been two hours there, before Mr. Sandys was acquainted that two of the guards would that night apprehend his son-in-law. Thereupon he was immediately guided to an honest farmer near the sea, and took up his abode with him two days and two nights in a chamber, without stirring out of it; after which he was shifted to one James Mower, a ship-master, who dwelt on Milton shore, and was to sail with the first fair wind to Flanders. Whilst he sta'd in expectation of a fair wind, Mower brought to him forty or fifty mariners, to whom he gave, an exhoitation, which they liked so well, that they pro- mised to die for it, ere he should be apprehended. On May 6th, being Sunday, the wind served, and at the shore Dr. Sandys met Mr. Isaac, of Kent, with his eldest son, who from the good opinion he had of the Doctor, sent his son with him; and Dr. Cox also embarked in the same ship, Cockerill com- mander. They were within sight, when two of the guard came thither to apprehend Dr. Sandys; but they happily arrived at Antwerp, and were immediately invited to dinner by the famous Mr. Locke. Before they had dined, George Gilpin, secretary of the English house, and kinsman to Dr. Sandys, came and whis- pered in his ear, ' That King Philip had ordered search to be made for him, and to apprehend him.' Hereupon they rose from dinner in a very great shower, and went out of the gate toward the land of Cleve: they had the good luck to light on a waggon, and hasting away, came safe to Ausburgh, in Cleveland, where Dr. Sandys staid fourteen days, and then set out for Strasburgh; where, after he had lived one year, his wife came to him. During his abode in that city, he fell sick of a flux, which kept on him 206 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. nine months, so that his recovery was very doubtful. He had a child, which died there of the plague; and his wife, after some time, fell sick of a consumption, and died in his arms. After this, two of his friends left him, Edmund Grindal (after- wards made Archbishop of Canterbury by Queen Elizabeth) who went into the country to learn the Dutch tongue, and Sampson, who went to attain the Hebrew language. Dr. Sandys continued still at Strasburgh, supported by Mr. Isaac, who passionately esteemed him, and was ever more ready to give, than he to take. The Doctor had of him above 100 marks, which he paid again; and by his other gifts and friendship to him, shewed himself a grateful man. His wife (as was said before) being dead, he went to Zurike, and for the space of five weeks was in Peter Martyr's house. As they sat one day at dinner, the news of Quee'i Mary's death was brought, and Dr. Sandys was sent for by his friends at Strasburgh. Mr Martyr and Mr. Jarratt were very joyful, but Dr. Sandys was very grave; ' it smote into his heart (as Fox writes) that he should be called to misery;' but it is more rational to believe, that he was thoughtful of the almighty power of God, in so wonderfully delivering him, and bringing about the means of returning to his native country. Bullinger, and other ministers, entreated him, before he took his leave, to return to Strasburgh, where he preached. He and Dr. Grindal came to London the same day Queen Elizabeth was crowned. Soon after, he was onee appointed by Queen Elizabeth, and her council, to manage a conference before the Lords and Com- mons at Westminster, against the Popish Bishops of Winchester and Lincoln, &c. on these three propositions:1 ' First, It is against the word of God, and the custom of the ancient church, to use a tongue unknown to the people, in common prayer, and administration of the sacraments. * Secondly, Every church hath authority to appoint, take away, and change ceremonies, and ecclesiastical rights, so the same be to edification. ' Thirdly, It cannot be proved by the word of God, that there is in the masse offered up a sacrifice propitiatory for the quick and the dead.' On the conference it was agreed to put all questions and an- swers in writing; but the Popish Bishops (Winchester and Lin- s Hollingshed's Chronicle, p. 1182, 11 83. ' Ibid. BARONESS SANDYS. 207 coin) departing (as Hollinshed recites) from all order, and manifestly varying from their own, were committed to the Tower) and the conference came to no effect. Camden, in his History of Queen Elizabeth, hasu observed, that on the deprivation of the Popish Bishops, in the second year of Queen Elizabeth, the most learned, that could be found among the Protestant divines, were recommmded to the vacant Sees, and that Richard Pate, Bishop of Worcester, having left the kingdom of his own accord, Archbishop Tarker, consecrated Edwin Sandys, a fluent and eloquent preacher, Bishop of Worcester. His conge dVlire bears date November 12th, 155Q,X and he was elected the 25th of the same month. On the 17th of De- cember, 155g, 2 Eliz. the Queen signified to Matthew [Parkei] Archbishop of Canterbury,'' that having granted her conge d'elhe to the dean and chapter of Worcester, they had elected Edwin Sandys, D. D. to the said See; she therefore commands him to consecrate him, which he did accordingly on the 21st of the same month, in the Archbishop's chapel at Lambeth. And by another commission,7- she commands the escheators of the coun- ties of Worcester and S:ilop, and marches of the said counties; Sir William Hewytt, Lord Mayor of London, and her escheator there; as also her escheator of the county of Middlesex, to re- store the temporalities of the said See to Edwin Sandys, D. D. elected Bishop of that See, by the deprivation of Richard Pate, the late Bishop. On June 2d, 15/0, hea was elected to the See of London; and the Queen, on July 1st, 1570, strictly commands Matthew, Archbishop of Canterbury, to confirm him; and likewise bher escheators in the counties of Middlesex, Essex, Hertford, Sussex, Worcester, Huntingdon; and Sir Alexander Avenon, her eschea- tor in the city of London, and Mayor thereof, to restore the temporalities in the said counties to Edwin Sandes, elect-bishop. The same year, hec was in the commission to inquire, by a jury, into all treasons, misprisions of treason, insurrections, mur- ders, felonies, burglaries, manslaughter, riots, escapes, contempts, unlawful assemblies, and oppressions; but more especially into " H;st. of Engl.

The Queen, on February 14th, 1576, commissions1' Edwin, Bishop of London, Robert, Bishop of Winchester, and other Bi- shops, to confirm Edmund, Archbishop of York, in the Arch- bishopric of Canterbury, to which he had been elected by the Dean and Chapter of the said See. On January 19th, 1577, the Queen1-' granted her conge d'elire to the Dean and Chapter of York to elect an Archbishop to the said See, vacant by the translation of Edmund Grindall to Canterbury; whof thereupon, January 25th, elected Edwin Sandys, Bishop of London, to that See: and the Queen, March 8th, 1577, ^commissioned Edmund, Archbishop of Canterbury, and other Bishops, to confirm Edwin, Archbishop of York. Also, on March l6th following,'1 the Queen commanded her escheators in the counties of York, Lincoln, Surrey, Middlesex, Northum- berland, Gloucester, and marches of Wales, Nottingham, and the Mayor of the town of Nottingham, her escheator in the said town; her escheators in Westmoreland, Cumberland; her Chan- cellor in the county palatine of Lancaster, to command the es- cheator in that county; the Mayor of the city of York; the Mayor of Kingston-upon-Hull, her escheators there; to restore the temporalities of the See of York to Edwin Sandes, elect- archbishop. On May 14th, J5/8, 20 Eliz. he was in commission,' with Henry, Earl of Huntingdon, President in the North, Richard, Bishop of Durham, and others, to visit the church of Durham, which had undergone great damages, by the insolency, neglect, and injuries done by the Dean, Canons, and other officers of the said church; and they were impowered to inquire into the ma- nagement of the revenues thereunto belonging, &c. This good prelate continued Archbishop of York, about twelve years, and, as Bishop Godwin relates,k departed this life August 8th, 1588, and was buried at Southwell.

BARONESS SANDYS. 209 left an account of the funerals of those persons of quality that he buried; wherein he recites,1 that Edwyn Sandys, Archbishop of York, late Bishop of London, and before Bishop of Worcester, died at Southwell, near Newark, in Nottinghamshire, Wednesday, July 10th, 1588, and was buried there the 15th of August fol- lowing, with great solemnity. The Antiquities of Worcester, printed in 1717, page 10^, recite, that though Godwin, and others, assert he was buried at Southwell, they are mistaken; whereas he lies buried at Hawkes- hed, in Lancashire, among his ancestors; and has, in honour of him, i'n the North isle, appropriated to his family, an inscription to his memory, the samo as was at Southwell. But this is an error, for he was indisputably buried in the collegiate church of Southwell;™ where is a curious monument, on the North side of the choir, with his effigies lying at length, with a book in his hand, and his children kneeling on one side; and round the verge is this inscription : A Edwinus Sandes, Sacra?

At the head of the monument is this epitaph : Cujus hie reconditum Cadaver jacet, genere non humilis, vixit dignitate, locoque magnus; exemplo major; duplici functus Episcopatu, Archiepiscopali tandem amplitudine etiam illustris*. honores hosce mercatus, grandipretio, mentis Virtutibusque.

He made his last will and testament a year before his death, when he was in sound health and perfect memory, as he expresses himself. And the preamble being so very remarkable, and shew- ing his rare virtues and wisdom, I shall, for the satisfaction of the curious, insert it, as truly worthy of being known.11 « IN DEI NOMINE, AMEN. " I Edwin Sandes, minister of God's holy word and sacra- ments, Archbishop of York, although most unworthy ; often minding the frailty and uncertainty of man's .life in general, and n Ex Registr. vocat. Drury, Quire 30> not. 75, in Cur. Praerog. Cantuar. BARONESS SANDYS. 2U withal, feeling mine own manifold infirmities in particular, both by my years, and for my sins; and also remembering, that when the Lord God shall say, Redde rationem villicationis iua, I, amongst others, shall appear before the tribunal seat of Christ, to receive in this body according to that I have done, be it good or evil. I reckon that in myself a Christian duty, with Ezechias, Disponere mea. And considering, that as I brought nothing into this world (for naked I came out of ray mother's womb) so can I carry nothing thereout, but naked 1 must return again, even earth to earth, and carcase to worms, the way of all flesh. While the Lord God hath lent me the leisure, being presently in sound health of body, and of perfect memory, I humbly thank him for both; even thus I discharge myself of those talents which the Lord hath committed unto my charge, and make my last will and testament in such sort as followeth: First, and above all, my soul and spirit I commend, with David and Stephen, into the merciful hands of my gracious God, and loving father; assuredly believing, by faith, and certainly trusting, by hope, that he, in the fulness of his good time, best known unto him, and least unto me, will receive the same unto himself; not in respect of any my deserts,, for my righteousness is but a very dunghill, and defiled cloth,, but of his own free mercies, and for the alone merits of his only Son., mine only Saviour, Jesus Christ ; who being without any sin, was made a curse and sacrifice for all my sins, that I might be made the righteousness of God in him; who, in his own body, bare all my transgressions upon the tree, that by smart of his stripes, and blood of his wounds, I might be healed; who hath cancelled upon the cross the whole hand-writing that was acrainst me, that I might not only be entertained as a servant, or recon- ciled as a friend, but adopted as a son, and accepted as an heir with God the Father; and an heir together with Jesus Christ, who is also made unto me wisdom, righteousness, sanctincation and redemption. And as in this faith, and full assurance of my perfect redemption, by the death and only deserts of Jesus Christ, the true lamb of God, and very lion of the tribe of Juda, I have and do live; so in the same firm and stedfast faith and hope 1 end my sinful life, and gladly yield up, with all immortal and mor- tal bodies. Secondly, Although this body of mine is but a clod" of clay, a prison of my sou), my will is, that it shall be buried, neither in superstitious nor superfluous manner; yet for that it hath been, and, as I trust, not only a vessel of the Gospel, but likewise a temple of the Holy Ghost, I require, that the ,ame be 212 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. so decently and conveniently brought to ground, as appertained to a Christian, a servant of Almighty God, and a man of my call- ing; pitting no doubt, but that I shall see my Redeemer with mine own eyes, and be covered with mine own skin, and that the Lord Jesus shall make this my vile body like unto his glorious body, whereby he is able to subdue all things unto himself, Re- posita est hac mihi spes in sinu meo. Thirdly, Because I have lived an old man in the ministry of Christ, a faithful disposer of the mysteries of God; and, to my power, an earnest labourer in the vineyard of the Lord, I testify before God and his angels, and men of this world. I rest resolute, and yield up my spirit in that doctrine, which I have privately studied, and publicly preached, and which is this day maintained in the church of England ; both taking the same to be the whole council of God, the word and bread of eternal life, the fountain of living water, the power of God unto salvation, to all them that do believe; and he seeking the Lord besides, to turn us unto him, that we might be turned, lest, if we repent not, the candlestick be moved out of his place, and the Gospel to a nation that shall bring forth the fruits there- of: and further protest, in an upright conscience of mine own, and in the knowledge of his Majesty, before whom I stand, that in the preaching of the truth of Christ, I have not laboured to please man, but studied to serve my Master, who sent me 3 not to flatter either prince or people; but by the law, to tell all sorts of their sin; by the Spirit, to rebuke the world of sin; of righte- ousness, and of judgment, by the Gospel, to testify of that faith which is in Jesus Christ, and in him crucified. Fourthly, Con- cerning rites and ceremonies, by political constitutions authorised amongst us: as I am and have been persuaded, that such as are set down by public authority in this church of England, are no way either ungodly or unlawful, but may with good conscience, for order and obedience sake, be used of a good Christian; for the private baptism to be ministered by women, I take neither to be prescribed or permitted; so have I ever been, and presently am persuaded, that some of them be not so expedient for the church now; but in the church reformed, and in all this time of the Gospel, wherein the seed of the Scripture hath so long been sown, they may better be disused by little and little, then more and more urged. Howbeit, 1 do easily acknowledge our eccle- siastical policy, in some points, may be bettered, so I do utterly mislike, even in my conscience, all such rude and indigested plat- forms, as have been more lately and boldly, than either learnedly BARONESS SANDYS. 213 or wisely, preferred ; tending not to the reformation, but to the destruction, of the church or England. The particulars of both sorts, reserved to the discretion of the godly ; which of the latter I only say thus, That the state of a small private church, and the form of a large Christian kingdom, neither would long like, nor can at all brook, one and the same ecclesiastical governments. Thus much I thought good to testify concerning there ecclesiasti- cal matters, to clear me from all suspicion of double and indirect dealings, in the house of God ; wherein, as touching mine office, I have not halted, but walked sincerely, according to that skill and ability which I received at God's merciful hands. Lord, as a great sinner, by reason of my frail flesh, and manifold infirmi- ties, I fly unto thee for mercy. Lord, forgive me my sins, for I acknowledge my sins. Lord, perform thy promise, and do away all my iniquities; hasten the coming of thy Christ, and deliver me from the body of sin. Veni tito, Domine Jesu, cloath me with immortality, and give me that promised crown of glory. So be it. And as concerning those worldly things, which God of his bountiful goodness hath given for our use; thus as a steward of the same, for the discharge of my duty in that behalf, I dispose of them. First, therefore, I will, ordain, and appoint, that my funerals, and debts whatsoever, be paid and discharged byr mine executrix, hereafter to be named, out of my whole goods. After which he recites, that by indentures, bearing date the 4th of June, in 18 Eliz. between him the said Edwin on the one part, and Miles Sandes, of Larimers, his brother, Francis Wil- ford, Edward Fenner, and Roger Brigges, Esqrs. on the other- part; they the said Miles, Francis, Edward, and Robert, did severally covenant and grant to him, his executors and assigns, that such person or persons as he should nominate and appoint, should and might hold, &c. and take the issues, profits, &c. of one messuage and a lodge, and land and pasture, called Curse- wold-park, alias Crudeswood-park, within the county of Kent; which the said Miles, Francis, Edward, and Robert, had of the grant of Henry Leonard.

And if the said George Sandes, and Elizabeth Norton, do marry together, he then wills that the said Elizabeth Norton be discharged of her wardship, and value of her marnage, which belongeth unto him, and ot all charges and expenses he has disbursed about the same, &c. He further wills, that his wife, Cicely Sandes, shall have the custody and bringing up of his children, Thomas Sandes, Henry Sandes, and George Sandes, so long as she continues a widow; and all that time to have in her hands, as well the annuity granted out of the manor of Ombersley, to the said Thomas, Henry, and George, as all other portions, patents, leases, &c. till they come to their full age; but if his said wife, Cicely Sandes, should marry before his children come to full age, that the several an- nuities, &c. be committed to his sons, Samuel Sandes, and Edwin Sandes, on sufficient bonds entered into by them, to see the same, and every part thereof, truly employed to the uses of his said sons, Thomas, Henry, and George. And whereas, according to his ability, he had sufficiently pre- ferred and advanced all his children; viz. both his daughters, Margaret Awcher, and Anne Barne, by marriage, to his great charges; as also all his sons; viz. Samuel, Edwin, Miles, Tho- mas, Henry, and George, by leases, patents, annuities, and other- wise; whereby they ought not, by reason of the custom of the province of York, to claim their filial portions of his goods and chattels; he declares, that his said sons and daughters should hold themselves contented, and not make any claim of his execu- trix, &c. And albeit that he had so provided for his children, according to his ability, as aforesaid; yet, for a further declara- tion of his fatherly good- will towards them, and that they may continue in their hearts and minds a thankful memory of the same, he bequeaths to his eldest son, Samuel Sandes, one bason and ewer of silver, double gilt, one salt, double gilt, and one dozen of silver spoons, with feather-beds, &c. therein mentioned, three geldings, &c. also his black armour of proof, made for hi* BARONESS SANDYS. 215 own body, with five other armours, at the discretion of his exe- cutrix.

To his daughter, Anne Barne, one great salt of silver, double gilt, with a cover, a dozen of silver spoons, and one ambling nag, fit for her own saddle; all at the, appointment of his executrix. He bequeaths to his brother, Christopher Sandes, lOi. and 30l. that he oweth him. To his brother, Anthony Sandes, 101.; and to his daughter, Cicely, 10 J. To his servant and kinsman, David Sandes, 20 1. and one good gelding, at the assignment of his executrix. T& every one of his household servants, at his decease, half a year's wages, and meat and drink for two months after. He moreover wills, that Dr. Toby Matthews, Dean of Durham, and his son, Edwin Sandes, should dispose of all his books of learning, except those in English, which he leaves to his wife, Cicely, to dispose of among his children ; reserving to the said Edwin, such as the said Dr. Matthews shall think fittest for his study. The residue of his goods. and chattels, not before bequeathed, his funeral debts, (and dilapidations, if any should happen to be), being first discharged, he gives to his loving and faithful wife, Cicely Sandes, in full sa isfaction of that her third part of his goods, due by the custom of the province of York, and makes her sole executrix ; requiring her, as she' will answer in good con- 216" PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. science before Almighty God, to see this his last will and testa- ment truly performed.

Edwin, second Lord Sandys, who was chosen member for Droitwich, in Worcestershire, in 1747; was elected for Bossiney, in Cornwall, in 1754; and on April 27th, 1762, was chosen re- presentative for the city of Westminster. In April 1/57, was appointed one of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, but resigned soon after. He was also one of the Vice-Presidents of the Westminster Infirmary. On January 26th, 1769, his Lordship was married to Anna- Maria, daughter of James Colebrooke, of Southgate, in the county of Middlesex, Esq. sister to Sir James and Sir George Colebrooke, Barts. and relict of William Paine King, of Fineshade, in North- amptonshire, Esq. He died without issue 1801. Dr. Nash having observed of his father, that he was " a very useful, diligent senator, a warm, steady friend, a good neighbour, a most hospitable country gentleman, and provincial magistrate;" adds of the son, Edwin, second Lord Sandys, that he was born in 1725, and was educated at Eton, where he was one of the best scholars of his time, especially in the Greek language, which he read when he was near seventy. He was a Lord of the Admiralty, during Lord Granville's short ad- ministration in 1746; and though he was closely attached to Lord North, during the whole of his time, and constantly voted with him, yet he never obtained any employment: he might have been useful in a post of diligence and form, and would have been pleased to be employed. He had no great judgment of his own, but was easily guided; very conversant in English history, and forms of parliament, especially of the House of Commons, which he constantly attended while a member; namely, from the time he came of age to his father's death, either for Droitwich, a Cornish borough, or Westminster. In private life he was per- fectly good-humoured, and obliging; a great lover of anecdote, and an agreeable companion. He came late into possession of his estate, and during the lifetime of his father was confined to a very narrow allowance, which he bore with great patience, and true filial piety. His make was large and corpulent; his appetite great, though he was not intemperate. He married a sister of Sir George Colebroke, widow of Mr. King, of Northamptonshire, who left her his whole estate, by which means she was a great fortune to her second husband. This, together with what he in- herited from his mother (the daughter and coheir of Sir Thomas Tipping, of Wheatfield, in Oxfordshire, Bart.) who had a fortune of above 170,0001. enabled Lord Sandys to live very handsomely, BARONESS SANDYS. 229 hospitably, and charitably, which he always did. Although the family estate of the Sandyses was not 15001. a year, all together would have been a very ample fortune, if his father had not im- paired it by Worcester elections, and, perhaps, by a considerable sum lent to Frederick, Prince of Wales."i His niece and heir, Mary Sandys, daughter of his brother Martin, and widow of the Marquis of Downshire, was created Baroness Sandys of Ombersley, with remainder to her second and other younger sons, June 15th, 1802.

The name of Holroyd is of great antiquity in the West Riding of the county of York, and is derived from the hamlet or estate of Holroyd, or Howroyd, as it is pronounced in Bark-island, six miles from Halifax, which they formerly possessed. The name has been differently spelled; viz. Howroyde, Howlefoyde, Hoo- leroid, Holerode, Holroide, Holroid, Holeroyd, Holroyd, &c. The origin of which has been derived by antiquaries from the Anglo-Saxon How, an hill, foi&, which word signifies, when ap- plied to land, such as was barren and uncultivated, and which on that account paid only twopence per acre, and was freed from the service of grave, and other taxes. This origin well suits the soil and situation of Holroyd (now the property and seat of Jo- shua Horton, Esq. uncle to Sir Watts Horton, of Chadderton, in county of Lancaster, Bart.) which joins to the mountainous coun- try separating Lancashire from Yorkshire, called Blackstone-edge. The name Holdenroid is also to be found in Holstein, &c. whence the Anglo-Saxons came. It appears from grants, ancient deeds and records, that Wil- liam de Howroyde possessed the lands of Howroyde in the reigrj of King Edward I. John, his son, was living 8 Edward III. 1335. His son, John de Howroyde, 30 Edward III. Henry de Howlroide, 2 Richard II. Thomas de Holroide, 9 Richard II. John de Holroid, in the same King's reign. John, his son, 3 Henry IV.

He married four wives, but had issue only by Mary Holroyd, his first cousin, one son, John, and one daughter, Mary, who married Isaac Ambrose, Esq. Clerk of the House of Commons in Ireland, and left an only child, Elizabeth, who married Hugh Eccles, Esq.

The issue of the said Isaac, by his wife Dorothy (who died in Sheffield Place, 29th August, 1777 > and was interred at Fletch- ing), were four sons, and four daughters ; viz. First, Isaac, who died in the eighth year of his age. Second, John, the present Lord Sheffield. Third, Daniel, who distinguished himself on the breaking out of the war with France; in 1756 he was appointed Ensign in the 18th or royal Irish regiment of foot, and in 17^9, Lieutenant in a new raised regiment of infantry, the 9CKh> under the command of Colonel Morgan. He distinguished himself at the capture of Belleisle, and at Martinico, where he commanded the grenadiers of the regiment, particularly on the 24th of January, at the bold attack of the heights, which were thought impregnable, and commanded St. Pierre. From Martinico the regiment went to the siege of the Havannah; the difficulties and success of which are well known. Four officers, of which he was one, and thirty- six men of the regiment, on an out-post, repulsed a body of five hundred Spaniards, by whom they had been attacked on the 24th of July, just before day-break j for which service they wer* 238 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. thanked in orders by General Lord Albemarle. At last, through the length of the siege, and the ravages of the climate, the army being greatly weakened, and its situation become desperate, it was resolved, as a last resource, to storm the Moro Fort. Not- withstanding the health of the gallant officer, of whom we have been speaking, was at that time much impaired by fatigue and the disorders incidental to the climate, yet he offered himself to command a detachment of the regiment, to act as a forlorn hope. He was obliged to pass to the breach (which would admit only one man a-breast) along a narrow ridge of rock, hanging over the sea on one side, on the other side was the ditch, upwards of sixty feet deep. The Spaniards had placed a thirty-two pounder opposite to the breach, behind a traverse, loaded with the. parings of ball, &c. which being fired, killed about ten men ; the detach- ment forced its way into the fort; Velasco, the Governor, was mortally wounded ; the garrison gave way, but a priest with a dozen men, got into a tower, and firing from thence, this pro- mising young man was shot dead on the spot; he fell highly re- gretted by the whole army. Of the forlorn hope, which consisted of about forty, two of the three officers, and two-thirds of the men, were killed; but they were the whole that fell in this ex- traordinary attack, the boldness of which entirely confounded the Spaniards. The sustaining party followed the forlorn hope, and four hundred of the eight hundred Spaniards in the fort were put to the sword. It is well known, the Havannah being com- manded by the Moro, surrendered in consequence of this success- ful attack. Daniel Holroyd was buried on the glacis of the Moro Fort. Fourth, Flwood, the fourth son, died young. The daughters were, , who died soon after her birth; Sarah-Martha, lately living, unmarried, at Bath; Martha, who died young; and Dorothy, who died in 1//0, in the twenty-fourth year of her age, unmarried, and was buried at Fletching. John Holroyd, the only surviving son, now Lord Sheffield, entered into the army in 1/DO, when the regiment of light dra- goons, called the Royal Foresters, was raised, under the command of the Marquis of Granby, in which corps he was Captain of a troop. When the peace was concluded in 1763, and the regiment was disbanded, he travelled three years over the principal parts of Europe, visiting the several courts of France, Italy, and Germany, and returned to England in \j60.h b In these travels he first became acquainted with Mr. Gibbon, the historian. LORD SHEFFIELD. 239 In 1768, in default of issue male of his mother's family, he succeeded to their estates in Yorkshire, Buckinghamshire., and Middlesex, and at the same time added the name of Baker to his own, in conformity to the will of his uncle.c c The Family of Baker, originnlly of Kent, was seated at Perm, in the county of Bucfongliam, about a century ago; and Daniel Baker, who lived in the time of Queen Elizabeth, married Sarah, daughter of Thomas Richardson, Esq. brother to John Richardson, Alderman of London, and to Richard Richard- son, who was a Judge; and by her (who died 15th February, 1660) he left issue two sons, Daniel, his heir; and John, who died unmarried.

The house 3s large and elegant, and situated in an extensive park, mid-way between East- Grinstead and Lewes. The first foundation is not known, but it has undergone great alterations, especially within these few years. It is in the best gothic style, and in a battlemented frize, which goes round the house, are introduced the arms of the possessors of the Lordship or Manor of Sheffield, from Edward the Con- fessor's time, when, as appears from Doomsday-book, it belonged to Earl Godwin. In 1068, William the Conqueror granted it to his half brother, Robert de Mor- taigne, Earl of Cornwall. 25 Edward I. 1296, it belonged to Laurence de St. Maur. 32 Edward I. 1304, to John de Ratriden. 35 Edward I. 1306, to Thomas, Earl of Lancaster. 3, Edward III. 1360, to Henry, Duke of Lancas- ter. 48 Edward III. 1375, to Roger Dalyngrigg. z Richard III. 1484, to John, first Duke of Norfolk. 13 Elizabeth, 1570, to Thomas, third Duke of Norfolk, who in 1 57 1, the year before he was beheaded, sold the manor, &c. of Sheffield to Thomas, Lord Buckhurst; whose grandson, Richard, Earl of Dorset, sold the same 21 James I. 1623, to Sir Christopher Nevill, son of Edward, Lord Abergavenny, and ancestor to the present Lord.

In the Summer of 1779> when the combined fleets of France and Spain were upon the coast of England, he offered to raise a regiment of light dragoons without expense to the public, which offer was graciously accepted by his Majesty, and he was permit- ted to nominate all his officers. The regiment was completed in a few weeks, and called the Sussex, or 22d regiment, as much distinguished by its men, horses, and appointments, as by its mi- litary discipline. In February, 1730, he was elected to parliament for the city of Coventry without opposition, and soon distinguished himself by his spirit, his clearness of judgment, and a manly boldness of expression. In June, the same year, during the very extraordi- nary insurrection and disturbances in London, he was eminent for his activity.6 At the head of a detachment of the Northumber- land militia, he was the first to put a stop to the outrageous vio- lences of the mob at Mr. Langdale's in High Holborn, and at Holborn-bridge, where he had an opportunity of displaying cou- rage, coolness, and humanity. His Majesty, by privy seal at St. James's 10th December, 1/80, f and by patent at Dublin gth January, 178l,s advanced him to the Peerage of Ireland, by the name, style, and title of Ilia pietatis erga Deum & amoris erga suos Exemplar probe spectatum Usque ad annum MDCCLI1I remansit Felicis connubio filios IX filias VIII enixa est Quatuor tenera a.*tate ereptis Reliqui fere senectutem attingerunt k non impares virtutibus parentum De hac numerosa stirpe Johannis Baker Holroyd De Sheffield Place in comititu Sussexiensi Solis probis virilis superstes atque haeres Hoc marmore Mandaia avice explevit MDCCLXX. 6 When Parliament was besieged and insulted by an intoxicated multitude, and when the person who bi ought together that, multitude, had frequently gone out to the people, and represented, or rather misrepresented, to them what was passing in that House, to which he belonged, it is said that Mr. Holroyd stopped him with some threats; adding, " that heretofore he had imputed his conduct to madness, but that new he was convinced there was more malice than madnesa jn it." f Rot. p. d.

Colonel Holroyd and Mr. Yeo, were declared duly elected. Soon after the conclusion of the war in the beginning of 1783, he had an opportunity of shewing still further the variety and extent of his abilities, by the opposition which he almost singly made to a bill brought into parliament during the Marquis of Lansdown's administration, for the regulation of the trade and intercourse with the American States. He pointed out the mis- chievous tendency of the system, and by perseverance and unre- mitted attention to the bill in every stage, it was at length stop- ped, and a temporary power given to the King in Council, to regulate the intercourse with the new States; but the system was only suspended, the subject led to an inquiry the most extensive that could be conceived, and it was not likely to be understood, if his Lordship had not thrown together in a pamphlet a most extraordinary body of information, with his observations thereon; the title of the pamphlet was, Observations on the Commerce with the American States; and in the year 1785, his Lordship pub- lished a Tract on the Manufactures, Trade, and present State of Ireland} His Lordship afterwards sat in parliament for Bristol, for many h Dunamore, or Dunaghrnore, a manor and estate in the county of Meath, was purchased by his Lordship's ancestor, ab„ut a century ago, from the Earl of Denbigh and Desmond. 1 Rot. p. d.

Although it is not above four hundred years since the Erskines had any title to the Earldom of Marr, yet this illustrious family, considered in itself, is very great and eminent, if we respect either its antiquity, or the many great employments and prefer- ments they have been honoured with these four hundred years past; and though we cannot show the precise time when, or by whom the name was first assumed, yet it is certain, it was derived from the Barony of Euskine, in the shire of Renfrew, and so being a local surname, is of consequence very ancient; though the first mention found of them, is no higher than the time of King Alexander II. in the twelfth of whose reign Henry de Erskine is witness in the gift which Amelick, brother of Maldwin, Earl of Lennox, made to the chanons of Paisly of the patronage of the church of Roseneth, with the tithes thereunto belonging, for the welfare of the King his sovereign lord.a Sir John de Erskine, Knight, his successor, is a witness to that donation, which Walter Stewart, Earl of Monteith, made to the Abbot of Paisly, of the church of St. Colmonel, for the good of his soul, according to the devotion of those days.b He was the father of Sir John de Erskine, and he of First, William, who succeeded him in the Barony of Erskine, and of, Second, John, who obtained a grant from James, High Steward of Scotland, of sundry lands within his tenement of a Char, of Paisly ad Annum 1216. b Ibidem ad Annum 1263. 252 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND.

Sir William Erskine, the next of this noble family, was a forward asserter of the right of King Robert Bruce, to whose in- terest fa:thfully adhering, he was one of those patriots, who in the year 1322, joined the Earl of Murray and Sir James Douglas, when they made an expedition into England, where his gallant behaviour procured him the honour of Knighthood,1' and other marks of the royal favour. He left behind him two sons. First, Robert, his successor. And, Second, Sir Alan Erskine, who obtained the barony of Inch- martine, in Perthshire, by the marriage of the heir of Sir John, of Inchmartine, Knight, which came the same way to the Glens, and so to Sir Andrew Ogilvy, ancestor to the Earl of Finlater, in the reign of King James II. Which Sir Robert Erskine, of Erskine, being a person well versed both in peace and war, was no less conspicuous for his firm and stedfast loyalty to King David, than his father had been to King Robert, even when his interest was at the very lowest, and the usurper Baliol upon the throne ; for as soon as the loyal- ists took the field, and declared for their lawful Sovereign, Sir Robert Erskine joined the Lord High Steward, and other patriots, who fought with, and defeated the rebels, and thereby recovered a great part of the country to the King's obedience, for which he was afterwards rewarded as his singular merit deserved. When a treaty was set on foot for redeeming King David from captivity, when he was taken prisoner at the battle of Dur- ham, anno 1346, Sir Robert Erskine, Lord of Erskine, as he is called in the record, was one of the commissioners employed in that honourable negociation f but that treaty not taking effect, he was always one of the plenipotentiaries that were appointed for the same purpose, and renewed every year, though all of them were unsuccessful till the year 135/, that Robert, Lord High Steward, guardian of Scotland, then commissioned Sir Robert ' This charter is a noble document for the family of Marr, for it distinctly instructs three distinct generations; and though it be without date, yet it is cer- tainly before 1309 tint the granter died ; it is apprehended its date is about 1300 from the witnesses, viz.

Having done all the service he could for King Ro- bert II. toward his advancement to the throne, his Majesty did not then forget to di-pense his royal favours to him, and more particularly he made him a grant of an annuity of forty merks sterling, formerly payable to the crown, out of the barony of Cadzow, which he exchanged with Sir David Hamilton for his lands of Alands, Barns, and Barnhill, within the barony of Ren- frew." But his Majesty's bounty did not stop to him here, for soon thereafter he bestowed on him a third part of the revenue accru- ing to the crown out of the borough of Dundee, together with a third of the lands of Pitcaraeh,0 then in the crown, by the de- mise of John Campbel, Earl of Athole. f Rymer.

In that high trust he approved himself with so much fidelity, that the King, when he came to age, highly valued him, insomuch that he sent him upon a solemn embassy into France, anno 1534, to propose a match betwixt the King and a daughter of that Crown; which having performed to his Majesty's satisfaction,? he soon thereafter em- ployed his Lordship in the same quality to Henry VIII. of Eng- land, to congratulate that King for their joint prosperity, and to consult with him about a marriage betwixt his nephew, King James, and a daughter of the Duke of Vendosme, whom the French king had ottered him, his own daughter being of a weak 1 Genealogy of the Houe of Erskine MS. m Genealogy of the Family of Rossyth from the Writs of that House, MS. penes me. n There is a charter in the public rolls to this James Eiskine of the lands of Little Sauchy, and Katharine Stirling his spouse, and to their heirs: they had issue James Erskine, of Balgony, and Mr. William, who got the parsonage of Campsay upon the Reformation, in commendam : he was afterward promoted to the Commendatory of Paisly, anno 1579, and after that, in 1587, made titular Bishop of Glasgow, though all the while he was aLaick: he afterwards was knighted by King James VI. and left a daughter, Janet, marr.ed to Sir William Alexander of Menstray, first Earl of Stirling. ° Chaita in Rotulis Jac.

John, thirteenth Lord Erskine, and Earl of Mar, was a per- son of such noble nature, generous disposition, and other bright qualities, as rendered him very capable of acting the part of a most consummate statesman, which he did afterward in the highest and most eminent stations a subject could attain to. Being at first a younger brother, his father judged the best way was to provide for him in the church, and therefore having given him education accordingly, he was in due time made Commendator of Inchma- chomoe in the end of King James V's reign, no doubt for his bet- ter support in the prosecution of his studies to qualify him for a higher office in the church; but both his brothers dying without heirs of their bodies, he was obliged to quit the character of a churchman and marry, in order to raise up heirs to the family: which he did, and matched with Annabella, daughter of William Murray, of Tillibardin, paternal ancestor to the present Duke of Athol, by whom he had John, his successor, and a daughter, Margaret, married to Archibald, Earl of Angus. Upon his accession to the honour, through the demise Of his father, though he was but then a very young man, he had so fair a reputation, and was so generally well esteemed, that the Queen Regent thought fit, in the year 1553, b to give his Lordship the command of the castle of Edinburgh, in which station he behaved so well, that he preserved himself in the good opinion of the Queen's Majesty, and the whole nation. When Queen Mary returned from, France, anno 15Gl, her Majesty having made choice of a new Privy-council, my Lord Erskine was named one of that number; in which station he soon rendered himself very gracious to the Queen," insomuch that she made him a grant of the Abbey of Inchmachomoe, and diverse other church lands then newly dissolved. His interest at Court now being very great, he thought it a favourable opportunity, and a proper season for him to renew his claim to the Earldom of Mar, and having made a good title through a long deduced pe- digree from Gratney, Earl of Mar, his pretensions being sup- ported by the Queen's countenance, his claim was allowed and ratified by act of parliament. And though my Lord Mar was a very zealous Protestant, it is worthy our remark, Queen Mary z Charta in publ. Archivis. a Ibidem k Dr. Anderson's Hisioiy of Scotland MS, in Biblioth, jurid. Edin. 260 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. trusted him as much as she could have done any of her own pro- fession, which she did eminently manifest by the confidence she reposed in him; for as soon as she was happily delivered of the Prince, James VI. her Majesty committed him to the tuition and custody of the Earl, in the castle of Edinburgh, then under his command, and he discharged that great trust so well, and was so much superior to all temptations of infidelity, that when the Earl of Bothwell had married the Queen, he could not prevail with my Lord Mar, either by promises or menaces, to deliver up the Prince to him, which was the thing in the world, that wicked Earl had set his heart most upon, when it is known his Lordship could have made his own terms: in the end, when Bothwell found all his offers rejected, he was glad to allow the Earl to carry the Prince to Stirling castle, of which he himself was heritable governor, and then delivered up Edinburgh castle to Bothwell, on the 21st of May, 1506, who immediately placed a creature of his own, Sir James. Balfour, in it, by which means, the Earl of Mar became, under God, the happy instrument of the Prince's miraculous preservation during his long minority: however, he still retained great duty and affection to the Queen, even after things came to an extremity; so it would aopear, that nothing but a pure principle of conscience for the preservation of the heir of the kingdom, first engaged his Lordship in the company of those who set the crown upon the head of the Prince, when he was an infant little more than one year old. When the civil war began, I do not find this generous and prudent Lord much en- gaged on either side; for his particular province being to take care of his royal pupil, he staid himself much with him, and as he grew up in years, gave him a princely education, appointing the famous Mr. Buchanan, Mr. Peter Young, Mr. David Erskine, Commendator of Carabusketmeth, and Mr. Adam Erskine, Com- mendator of Dryburgh, to be his instructors; gentlemen who wanted none of those qualities which were to be wished to be in the persons to whom the education of a great and hopeful Prince was committed, and for framing his mind and manners in his young and tender years. My Lord Mar bore no public office in the state till 1571, when, upon the death of Matthew, Earl of Lennox, the Regent (the Earl of Mar was a nobleman so generally well esteemed), he was, on September the 5th, by the unanimous consent of the King's paity, chosen Regent of Scotland in his room. In which great office he had, says one, that the court were entertained with the greatest magnificence imaginable, out of the profits of the crown; and it was observed by the English nobility, who attended the King in that progress, that his Majesty appeared with no less lustre at Holy-Rood-House than at Whitehall. He continued in the Treasurer's place till 1630 ; his Lordship being grown aged and infirm, he resigned the office, which was immediately put into the hands of the Earl of Morton, and declining to be put into any other public employ- ment, he retired to his seat in the country, wdiere death put a period to his days, on the lo'th of December, 1635, aged seventy- nine. He married, first, Anne, daughter of David., Lord Drummond, by whom he had John, his son and heir. Next, the Lady Mary Stewart, Daughter of Esme, Duke of Lennox, by whom he had a numerous issue; viz. 264 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND.

John, third Earl of Mar, was made one of the Knights of the Bath, at the creation of Henry, Prince of Wales, on the 30th oi May, lfjio, and thereafter, July 20th, 1615, he was sworn of his Majesty's most honourable Privy-council, and named one of the Senators of the College of Justice: which station he prudently and faithfully discharged till, 1620", his Lordship was removed upon a general statute, that no Peer could be an Ordinary Lord of the Session. Whether it was this, or any other act of uukind- ness he met with from the court, I cannot say, but it is certain, upon the first appearance of the troubles in 1638, his Lordship being then Governor of Edinburgh castle, his Majesty did not seem to be absolutely satisfied of the affection of the Earl to his service, and therefore removed him from that command, and put the castle into the hands of Major-general Ruthven, as a person on whom he could firmly rely, and yet his Majesty was willing that his Lordship's remove might not be attended with any act of disobligation, and therefore gave him 30001. which the Marquis of Hamilton gave security for. When the civil war broke out, he applied himself with great resolution and fidelity to the King's service, and therefore was reckoned among the first rank of Ma- lignants, and suffered accordingly. He married Jean, daughter of Francis, Earl of Errol, by whom LORD ERSKINE. 265 he had John, his successor in the honour, and a daughter, Eliza- be;h, married to Archibald, Lord Napier; and departing this life in 1654, was succeeded by John, his son, fourth Earl of Mar, who, during the whole course of the civil war, most eminently signalized his loyalty to King Charles 1. He was one of the Peers who joined the Marquis of Montrose at the battle of Philiphaugh; after which, he had the General's leave to capitulate, which he did upon no other terms, than laying down his arms, and living quietly at his own house, retaining always his affection and fidelity to the crown, to his dying day. He married, first, Mary, daughter of Walter, Earl of Buc- cleugh; and again, Mary, daughter of George, Earl of Seaforth, By her he had Charles, his son and heir, likewise three daughters. Barbara, married to James, Marquis of Douglas. Mary, to John, Earl of Glencairn. Sophia, to Alexander, Lord Pitsligo. Charles, ffth Earl of Mar, his son, was one of the Lords of the Privy council to King Charles II. and King James VII. During whose reign he was Colonel of a regiment of foot. He died in the flower of his age, April 23d, J 689, leaving issue by Mary his wife, daughter of George, Earl of Panmure, First, John, his son and heir, a man of extraordinary abilities. Second, James Erskine, of Grange, who was by the special favour of her Majesty Queen Anne, promoted to be one of the Senators of the College of Justice, in 1/0(3, and thereafter made Justice Clerk. Third, Colonel Henry Erskine, who was killed at the battle of Almanza, in Spain, anno J707, to the great grief of his noble relations. Fourth, Jean, married to Sir Hugh Paterson, of Bannockburn, Bart. John, sixth Earl of Mar, being the heir of a noble and illus- trious family, as soon as he came to age, her .Majesty Queen Anne took him into her immediate care, made him first a Privy- counsellor, gave him the command of a regiment of foot, and made him a knight of the order of St. Andrew, in the beginning of her reign. In 1/05, her Majesty promoted him to be Secretary of Slate in the room of the Marquis of Annandale; and the next ensuing year, his Lordship was named one of the Commissioners to treat of an union betwixt the two nations; which being agreed to by 266 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. the respective parliaments of both kingdoms, his Lordship, throughout the whole affair, merited so well of the court, that he had a pension settled on him as an equivalent for his Secre- tary's place; which was then suppressed, and consolidated into the Secretary-office of Great Britain. In 17O8, the Queen named his Lordship of her most honourable Privy-council, and striking in with the Earl of Oxford, on the change of the ministry, he was in 1713, preferred to be Third Secretary of Great Britain, which had been vacant from the death of the Duke of Queensberry; in which eminent station his Lordship continued till after the death of his mistress, the Queen. Upon the arrival of King George in Britain, his Majesty was pleased to acquaint the Earl a few days thereafter, that he had no longer occasion for his service in the quality of Secretary of State; to which his Grace the Duke of Montrose was preferred on the 24th of Sep- tember, 1714. Disgusted at this treatment, he retired to his estate in Scotland, where unhappily for his country, he raised a rebellion, and proclaimed the Pretender, at Kirk-Michael, in Perthshire, September 11th, 1715; but having made an attempt on the King's troops at Perth, in which his horse was shot under him, he made his escape beyond seas, and in 1716, was attainted of high treason. He followed the Pretender to Rome, and re- mained in his service till 1721. He then removed to Paris, where he remained till 1729; and thence retired to Aix la-Chapelle for his health, where he died in May 1732. He married, first, Margaret, daughter of Thomas, Earl of Kinnoul,c by whom he had only two sons; First, John, who died an infant. Second, Thomas, Lord Erskine. Secondly, Frances Pierpont/ daughter of Evelyn, Duke of Kingston, by whom he had one daughter, Lady Frances Erskine, on whom King George I. settled .the same fortune as she would have been entitled to under her mo- ther's settlement. She married Mr. James Erskine, son of her uncle, Mr. Erskine, of Grange, by whom she had two sons; John Francis, and James Francis, both officers in the British service.

He married Lady Charlotte Hope, daughter of Charles, Earl of Hopetoun, and was living 1764. We now return to James Erskine, eldest son of the second marjiage of John, second Earl of Mar, Lord High Treasurer of Scotland, and Knight of the most noble Order of the. Garter, by the Lady Mary Stewart, second daughter of Esme, Duke of Len- nox. He married Mary Douglas, Countess of Buchan: upon which marriage/ the right of succession to the Earldom of Buchan (which before had been to the heirs whatsoever), was by a charter under the Great Seal, proceeding upon a resignation, limited to the said Mary, Countess of Buchan, and the said James her hus- band, and the heirs male of the said marriage, which failing, to the said James's nearest lawful heirs male whatsoever. Which James, Earl of Buchan, being a person of great merits and accomplishments, and much in the favour of King Charles I. (to whom he was a Gentleman of his Bed-chamber), lived most of his time in England, where he had issue by his said wife, James, his eldest son and heir, and John, who died unmarried; as also two daughters, Mary, married to Alexander, Lord Pitsligo, and had issue ; and Margaret, married to Sir James Graham, son to the Earl of Monteith. * c Sir James Stewart, second son of Sir James Stewart, called the Black Knight of Lorn (son of John Stewart of Innermeath, son of Robert of Shanbo- thy, son of Sir James Stewart, fourth son of Su- John Stewart, of Bonkyll, younger brother of James, seventh Lord High Steward of Scotland, who was grandfather of King Robert II.), was raised to the dignity of the Peerage, by the title of Earl of Buchan, Lord Auchterhouse, &c. 1469: he died before 1499. His son, Alexander, second Earl, died before 1505, and was succeeded hy his son, John, third Earl, who was one of the Privy-council to King fames V. with whom he was in great favour. His son, John, Master of Buchan, died before him, being killed in the battle of Pinkie, 154.7, and the Earl himself dying 155 1, his honours devolved on his granddaughter and heir, Christian, Countess of Buchan. This Christian married Robert, second son of Sir Robert Douglas, of Loch- levcn, brother of William, Earl of Morton, and he became in her right fourth Earl of Buchan. They were succeeded by their son, James Douglas, fifth Ear), who was served heir to his father, in 1583, and died August 24th, 1601. He left an only child, Mary Dougias, Countess of Buchan, so designed, in 1606. She married James Erskine, eldest son of th; second marriage of John3 Earl of Mar, as above said. 26s PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. After the death of whom, he married, secondly, Elizabeth, daughter of Sir Philip Knevit, of Buckenham Castle, in the county of Norfolk, Bart, by whom he had issue, Dorothy, married in England to Walker, in the county of Middlesex, Esq. and several other children, who died young. To whom succeeded James, second Earl of Buchan, his eldest son and heir, who by his wife Mary, daughter of William, Earl of Dalhousie, had issue one son, William, who succeeded him, and five daughters; Marjory, the eldest, married, first, to Fraser, of Inderalachie, Esq. and, secondly, to Charles, Lord Fraser; Anne, the second, to James Canaries, D. D. Henriette, the third, to Thomas Forbes, of Tolquhoun, Esq. and Jean, the fourth, to George Gray, of Hackerton, Esq. Which William, third Earl of Buchan, having joined himself at the Revolution, in 16S8, to those who took up arms in Scotland against the late King William, brought himself thereby into much trouble: for being soon after taken by that King's troops, he was committed prisoner to the castle of Stirling, where, though by the intercession of his friends his prison was at last much enlarged, he continued to his death, which happened anno 1690, without leaving any issue, having never been married. To whom succeeded David, Lord Cardross, his nearest heir male, being great grandson and heir to Henry, the first Lord Cardross, who was brother to James, Earl of Buchan, grandfather to the said William last deceased. The honour and title of Lord Cardross, had its beginning in anno 1604, when James VI. of Scotland, and I. of Great Bri- tain, by his charter under the Great Seal, bearing date on March 27th in the said year, erected the said Lordship in favour of John, Earl of Mar, Lord Treasurer of Scotland, and Knight of the most noble Order of the Garter, his heirs and assigns; in pursuance whereof, the said Earl, in anno \Q\5, assigned and disponed the same, and whole rights thereto belonging, to Henry Erskine, his second son, by the Lady Mary Steuart, his second wife, daughter of Esme, Duke of Lennox, a Lady near in blood to his said Ma- jesty ; who, as a further mark of his royal favour, was also pleased to bestow on the said Henry, the abbey of Dryburgh, in Teviot- dale, formerly a seat of monks of the order of Promontre; the said abbey, with the lands and tythes thereto belonging, being, by a special act of parliament for that purpose, dissolved from the crown. LORD ERSKINE. 269 Which Henry, first Lord Cardross, married Margaret, only daughter of Sir James Ballanden, of Broughtoun, and sister of William, first Lord Ballanden, by whom he had David, his only son and heir, and one daughter, Mary, who was married to Sir John Buchanan of that Ilk, in the county of Stirling, and had issue; and dying anno 1606, was succeeded by David, second Lord Cardross, his only son, who, anno 1645., married Anne, daughter of Sir Thomas Hope, of Craighall, Lord Advocate, great grandfather to the present Earl of Hopeton, by whom he had issue, Henry, who succeeded him, and a daughter, Margaret, mar- ried to William Cunningham, of Boquhan, in the county of Stir- ling, mother, by him, of Henry Cunningham, of Boquhan, Junior, representative of the burgh of Stirling, and district thereof, in the parliament anno 17 12. His Lordship married, secondly (anno 1655), Mary, second daughter of George Bruce, of Carnock, and sister of Edward and Alexander, both Earls of Kincardin, by whom he had issue four sons, and three daughters. Alexander, the eldest son, died young. William, the second, Deputy Governor of Blackness castle, a person of great integrity and honour, married Magdalen, daughter of Sir James Lumsden, of Innergelly, in the shire of Fife, and had issue by her, William, his eldest son and heir, and James. John, the third, who, upon all occasions, appeared with great zeal in the cause of religion and liberty, and thereby acquired an universal esteem, retired into Holland some years before the Re- volution, in 1688, when he accompanied the Prince of Orange in his expedition into England, a little before which, he had a com- pany of foot bestowed upon him in Holland; and soon after, upon that Prince's accession to the throne, was made Lieutenant Governor of Stirling castle, and afterwards Governor of Dumbar- ton, and a Lieutenant-colonel of foot. In l6g5, he was chosen a Director of the Company of Scotland trading to Africa and the Indies, and by them sent, with others, in 1696, into Holland, and other foreign parts, to manage the affairs of that company. In pursuance whereof, such progress was made at Hamburgh, and encouragement given from other parts, as had, in all appear- ance, been attended with the desired success, had it not been for things very unexpected and surprising, and too well known to need mentioning. He married, first, Jean, daughter and heir of William Muir, of Caldwell, in the shire of Renfrew 3 but she 270 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. dying soon after, without issue, he married, secondly, Anne, eldest daughter and coheir of William Dundass, of Kincavill, in the county of Linlithgow, Advocate, by whom he had John, his eldest son and heir, and several other sons; also one daughter, Mary, yet unmarried. Charles, the foarth son, being a Captain of foot in the Low Countries, in the service of the late King William, was killed there, at the battle of Stenkirk, the 24th of July, 1692. Veronica, his eldest daughter, married to Walter Lockhart, of Kirtoun, in the county of Lanerk, and had issue. Magdalen, the second, to Alexander Monypenny, of Pitmilly, in the shire of Fife, and had issue. And, Mary, the third, died young. To which David, Lord Cardross, succeeded, anno 16/I, Henry, his eldest son and heir, third Lord Cardross, who, being a person of universally acknowledged merit, and, upon all ©ccasions, a strenuous asserter of the rights and liberties of his country, met with many hardships in the late reigns, with which having, struggled long, with great firmness and constancy, he at last withdrew into Holland, where he was kindly received by the Prince of Orange, afterwards King of Great Britain, whom he accompanied in his expedition into England, in 1<5S8. And upon that Prince's accession to the throne (of which he was a zealous promoter) had several marks of his favour bestowed upon him, being soon after made a Privy Counsellor, General of the Mint, and Colonel of a regiment of dragoons. He was, at the same time, appointed by parliament one of the Commissioners for treating of an Union with England. Upon all which occasions he behaved himself so as to maintain the character he had all along had, of a person of untainted integrity and honour. He died at Edinburgh the 21st of May, 1693, and forty-fourth year of his age, having, in 16/ 1, married Katharine, second daughter, and at length sole heir, of Sir James Steuart, of Stra- brock, in the county of West Lothian ; by which Katharine he had issue, First, David, who succeeded him, and was afterwards Earl of Buchan.

Also three daughters; Katharine, the eldest, married to Sir William Denham, of Westshields, in the county of Lanerk, Baronet, but had no issue by him; secondly, to Daniel Campbell, of Shawfield. Mary, the second, married James Nimmo, Esq. And Anne, the third, married to Archibald Edmonston, of Duntreth, in vice comitatu de Stirling. David, fourth Lord Cardross, his eldest son and heir, suc- ceeded, and upon the death of William, Earl of Buchan, anno 1695, without issue, became also fourth Earl of Buchan. This David, fourth Earl of Buchan, in anno 1697, married Frances, eldest daughter, and since sole heir of Henry Fairfax, of Hurst, in the county of Berks, Esq. only son and heir of Henry Fairfax, Esq. second son of Thomas, Viscount Fairfax: by the which Frances, Countess of Buchan, the said Earl had nine sons; First, Henry David, Lord Auchterhouse, born in September 1699, who died very young.

Lady Frances, married to the celebrated Colonel Gardner, for whom, see Doddridge's Life of that pious man.

His Lordship was one of the Council of Trade appointed by parliament in anno 1/05, when by an act passed in Eng- land, the importation of Scots linen cloth and cattle into that kingdom was prohibited, and matters seemed to run high be- twixt the two kingdoms, in which commission his Lordship behaved himself so as to gain uniyerial esteem, as he did 272 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. upon all other occasions, when employed in the public service, wherein he always eminently distinguished himself by his un- shaken zeal and constant appearance for the honour and interest of his country, as well during the reign of King William, in which he was a Privy Counsellor from the year 1697, till the death of that Prince, as during that of her Majesty Queen Anne, bv whom he was also constituted of the Privy-council; as also one of the Commissioners of the Exchequer, and Governor of Blackness castle; in all which he continued till after the conclu- sion of the treaty of Union, anno 1707 > which he opposed in par- liament to the very last, being of opinion, as his Lordship then declared, that several of the articles agreed upon were inconsistent with the honour of his country, especially of the Peerage, against which he therefore entered his protest, and was soon after removed from all public trust. But on the accession of his Majesty King George to the crown, for the security of whose succession his Lordship had on all occa- sions exerted himself with the utmost zeal, he had again several marks of favour bestowed on him; having been appointed one of the Lords Commissioners of Police, and Lord Lieutenant of the shires of Stirling and Clackmannan, as he was also, to the general satisfaction, elected one of the Sixteen Peers for Scotland to the first parliament of Great Britain called after his Majesty's arrival in this kingdom. He was also elected one of the Sixteen Peers 1722, 1727. Dying in London, October 15th, 1745, he was succeeded by his son, Henry ~Dx\it>, fifth Earl of Buchan, who died December 1st, 1767, having married Agnes, daughter of Sir James Stewart, of Goodtrees, Bart, and by her, who died December 11th, 1778, had issue, First, David Stewart, sixth and present Earl of Buchan. His Lordship commenced his political career under the patron- acre of the late Earl of Chatham, while Lord Cardross, in the di- plomatic department. But he has passed the larger portion of his time in literary retirement, cultivating the Muses, and occasion- ally laying before the public the fruits of his acquirements. More than twenty-five years ago he published a pamphlet on the state of the Scotch Peerage; and has since given the Lives of Fletcher of Saltoun, and others: and frequently been a correspondent of the various periodical works of the day.

In Match 1806, he was returned M.

John, the last Earl of Glen- cairn, who died September 24th, 1/0(3, without issue. Thomas, third son, now Lord Erskine, a man, whose splerdid career at the English Bar is familiar to the nation, ori- ginally embraced the military profession ; but left it young, for a sphere for which his brilliant talents were adapted; and retiring to Cambridge, and studying there for a short time, went from thence to Lincoln's Inn, qualified himself for an advocate in the Court of King's Bench; and being admitted to the Bar in 1/78, immediately distinguished himself by his oratory, at the trial of Admiral Keppel, whence he rose almost instantly into full prac- tice, and led the Bar, in all appeals to juries, for nearly five and twenty years. It is impossible to describe the grace, bea'uty, and copiousness, of his eloquence; it was totally unlike any thing in the same sphere, either at the time, before, or since. The silver tones of his voice, the lightning of his eye; the incessant blaze of his imagery; his touching appeals to the heart; and his profuse com- mand of language, overwhelmed every feeling and cultivated mind with delight and astonishment. Nor was his judgment less correct, than his talents were bril- liant. I have heard those who are best capable of forming an opinion say, that his prudence and sagacity as an advocate, weie as decisive as his speeches were splendid. He could discriminate VOL. IX, T 2^4 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. with as much labour snd niceness, as he could illumine by the stores of his inexhaustible fancy. His inclination, no doubt, led him to give the excursive powers of his mind full play; but he had the ability of the most minute discernment and profound in- vestigation, whenever the occasion required it. In short, he is a man formed in the prodigality of nature; and, to whomsoever honours be grudged, they cannot be said to have been unjustly won by Lord Erskine. On February Sth, 1S06, he was appointed Lord High Chan- cellor of England, and created Lord Erskine, of Restormel Castle, in Cornwall. He resigned the chancellorship in the following year, when Lord Eldon was re-appointed. His Lordship married, March 2Qth, 1//0 (being then an officer of the first regiment of foot), Frances, daughter of Daniel Moore, Esq. M.

This ex- asperated P^ing Henry so much, that he banished this Earl, and discountenanced his friends. Then it is, and with much probability supposed, that Philip de Montgomery came for Scotland, and fixed his residence in the county of Tiviotdale, upon the Border, where he became a power- ful man. In the time of Malcolm IV. frequent mention is made of Robert de Mundegumery, i. e.

But omitting some traditions, I descend to Sir John' Montgo- mery, of Eglesham, Knight, who married the daughter and heir v of Sir Hugh Eglintonn, of that Ilk; which Sir John was in that expedition made against the English at the battle of Otterburn, anno 1388, where James, Earl of Douglas was slain. Here he behaved very valiantly, and took Henry Percy, son to the Earl of Northumberland, prisoner, and for his ransom obliged him to build the castle of Punoon, the chief messuage of the Lordship of Eglesham; he had issue three sons; Sir Hugh, Sir John, and Alexander. First, Sir Hugh, a brave and gallant youth, lost his life in the service of his country, at the field of Otterburn, where his death is particularly remarked in this old heroic poem, He had a bow bent in his hand, Made of a trusty tree, An arrow of a cloath-yeard long Into the head drew he. Against Sir Hugh Montgomery, So right his shaft he set, The gray goose wing that was therein, In his heart-blood was vveet. Sir John, the second so?i, first Peer, succeeded to the estate? he was sent into England one of the hostages for the ransom of King James I. anno 1423 ;k and at the solemn inauguration of the said Prince, he was one of the Barons on whom the honour of knighthood was conferred in 1424, and one of the Peers who sat upon the trial of Murdo, Duke of Albany, where we find that unhappy Duke condemned to lose his head, though the records are wholly silent as to his crime. This Lord, who was raised to the Peerage in 1427, married Agnes, daughter to the Lord Max- wei, by whom he had, Alexander, his son and heir, second Peer, who indeed first raised the grandeur of the family, being a man of great parts. King James I. chose him a Privy Counsellor, and in 1430, constituted him jointly in commission with Sir Alexander Cuningham, to be Governor of Kintyre and Knapdale; and the next ensuing year J Douglas makes this Sir John great great grandson of Sir A'art k Mr, Ryjuer's Faedera Ang 2SS PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. * he was, with Alexander, Lord Gordon, and Mr. John Methven, Secretary of State, sent to England to treat of the continuing a peace betwixt the two realms, which was at length concluded by them, having survived the many difficulties and factions of King James Fs reign. I find he was of the Privy-council to his son, King James IL anno 1440, from whom he obtained several bene- ficial grants from the crown, in consideration of his good and laudable services, not only performed to himself, but to his fa- ther of blessed memory. This Lord was twice sent Commissioner into Englandjk the first time in 1444, and the other in 1457- Li both commissions he is designed, Alexander, Dominus Montgo- mery.

This Earl stuck close to Queen Mary in the time of her greatest distress: he put himself in arms in her behalf, and was personally engaged in the battle of Lang-side,a where he, together with the Lord Seton, and many Barons of account, were taken prisoners, after which he thought fit to tender his submission to King James VI. and lived peaceably t ill his death, which happened in the month of June 1585;b his estate devolving on Hugh, his son, fourth Earl, who was barbarously murdered on the score of a private quarrel, by John Cuningbam, of Coln- beith, and his adherents, the 12th day of April, 158Q,C whereby his country was deprived of an honour and ornament, his Prince of a faithful and able subject, and his family of a singular advantage. Mr. John Johnston wrote the following epitaph in praise of him: Ilia opifex sollers rerum, magni temula Olympi Natura, immensis ambitiosa opibus; Ilia sibi de te certans quae singula, rara, Vix aliis, dedit hsec cuncta benigna tibi.

This Earl was among the number of those Peers who engaged themselves against the King, anno 1 63 8, upon the first commencing of our bloody civil war : he had the command of a regiment in the army that was sent to Ireland, anno 1 642, toward the suppressing the rebellion of the native Irish :f he was likewise personally en- gaged in the battle of Longmarstonmuir, anno 1643, in the ser- vice of the Parliament of England against the King, where he behaved with abundance of courage, yet his Lordship still retained a respect and affection to his Majesty's person, and no man more abominated the murder of the Lord's anointed than he. He heartily concurred with, and was extremely satisfied with the restoration of King Charles II. by whom he was constituted Captain of his guard of horse, s anno 1650; and the next year, while he was raising forces in the Western parts for the King's service, he was surprised at Dunbarton by a party of English horse, and sent prisoner to the town of Hull, and afterward re- moved to Berwick upon Tweed, suffering likewise the sequestra- tion of his estate till the restoration made restitution to him, anno 16(50. His first wife was Anne, daughter of Alexander, first Earl of Linlithgow, by whom he had First, Hugh, his success'or in the honour. Second, Sir Henry Montgomery, of Giffen, died without chil- dren.

Fifth, Robert, who in his youth making choice of a military life, went over to the wars in Ireland. Anno 164'?., he was first made a Captain in his father's regiment, after which he listed himself in the service of the Parliament of England, where in time he arrived to the degree of a Major-general, and acquired the reputation of a man of courage, and a good officer: he firmly adhered to King Charles II. and in his Majesty's service he gave many signal proofs of his loyalty and valour on several occasions, especially at that memorable encounter at Dunbar, 3d of Septem- ber, 1650, in which action he performed the part of a brave and valiant commander; likewise he commanded in the quality of Major-general of the horse in the royal army at Worcester, 3d of September, 1051, where he received diverse wounds, and had the misfortune to be taken prisoner, whence making his escape out of the castle of Edinburgh in disguise, anno l65Q,h he got beyond sea to the King, and returned with his master, anno 1Q6O, being one of the Gentlemen of his Majesty's Bed Chamber. He married Margaret, daughter of James, Viscount of Kilsyth, by whom he had James Montgomery, Esq. his son and heir. His Lordship had likewise two daughters; first, Margaret, married to John, first Earl of Tweedale; after his death, to Wil- liam, Earl of Glencairn. The second, Anne, died unmarried.

In 1558, he was ap- pointed Principal Secretary of State to the Queen. The elegant historian gives the following character of him: " Maitland had early applied to public business admirable natural talents, im- proved by an acquaintance with the liberal arts; and, at a time of life when his countrymen of the same quality were following the pleasures of the chase, or serving as adventurers in foreign armies, he was admitted into all the secrets of the cabinet, and put upon a level with persons of the most consummate experience in the management of affairs. He possessed, in an eminent degree, that intrepid spirit, which delights in pursuing bold designs, and was no less master of that political art and dexterity, which is neces- sary for carrying them on with success. But these qualities were deeply tinctured with the neighbouring vices ; his address some- times degenerated into cunning; his acuteness bordered upon ex- cess of subtlety and refinement; his invention, ever fertile, sug- gested to him, on some occasions, chimerical systems of policy, little suitable to the genius of the age; and his enterprising spirit engaged him in projects vast and splendid, but beyond his utmost power to execute. All the contemporary writers, to whatever fac- tion they belong, mention him with an admiration, which nothing could have excited but the greatest superiority of penetration and abilities." In 1573, he joined with Kirkaldy in keeping the castle of Edinburgh against the young King; but the garrison at last mutinied, and the castle was surrendered to Drury, to whom Kirkaldy and Maitland became prisoners. Morton insisted they should iuffer the punishment due to their rebellion. He first confined them to separate prisons; and soon after, with Eliza- beth's consent, condemned Kirkaldy and his brother to be hanged at the cross of Edinburgh. Maitland, who did not expect to be treated more favourably, prevented the ignominy of a public execution by a voluntary death, and " ended his days," says Mel- ville, " after the old Roman fashion," 1573. Leaving issue, by Mary his wife, daughter of Malcolm, Lord Fleming, a son, James, who died without male issue, and a daughter, Mary, married to Robert, first Earl of Roxburgh^ His brother, Sir John Maitland, born about 1537, became x Charta in Rotulis Jacobi VI. V Johnstoni Historia rerum Britannicarum. LORD LAUDERDALE. 301 finally his heir mile. Though originally in the interest of Queen Mary, who made him Lord Privy Seal, 156/, he was made a Se- nator of (he College of Justice, after Morton's fall, and advanced to the office of Secretary of State, 1584 In 1580, in defiance of the intrigues of his enemy, Captain James Stewart, he was appointed Lord High Chancellor; and, together with that dignity, enjoyed all the power and influence of a prime minister. He was created a Peer by the title of Lord Maitland of Thirle- stane, May 1 8th, )5gO. He was author of a poem preserved by Pinkerton, containing a Satire Jgarus Sklandereus Toungis; and of several epigrams in the Delkice Poetarum Scotorum: he died in 15g5. " This year/ says Robertson, " the King lost Chancellor Maitland, an able minister, on whom he had long devolved the whole weight of public affairs. As James loved him while alive, he wrote, in honour of his memory, a copy of verses, which, when compared with the compositions of that age, are far from being inele- gant." He married Jean, only daughter of James, Lord Fleming, by Barbara his wife, daughter of James, Duke of Chatlerauk. By her he had John, his successor. And one daughter, Anne, married to Robert, Lord Seaton, son and heir apparent to George, first Larl of Winton. This worthy Lord, who made his exit out of this world on the 3d of October, 1505, as has been said, was interred at the church of Hadingtoun, King James honouring him with this epitaph of his own composing: Thou passenger that spies with gazing eyes, This trophie sad of Death's triumphant dart, Consider when this outward tomb thou sees, How rare a man leaves here his earthly part : His wisdom and his uprightness of heart, His piety, his practice of our state; His quick engine so verst in every art, As equally not all were in debate. Thus justly hath his death brought forth of late An heavie grief in Prince and subjects all, That vertue, love, and vice do bear at hate, Though vitious men rejoices at his fall. 302 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. As for himself, most happy doth he die, Though for his Prince ii most unhappy be. John, second Lord Thirlestane, the Chancellor's son, was a nobleman of great honour and probity, and managed his affairs with that conduct and discretion, that he made considerable ad- ditions to his fortune. He was much favoured by King James VI. who created him first Viscount of Lauderdale, and thereafter honoured him with the title of Earl of Lauderdale, by letters patent bearing date 24th of March, l624.z It seems that he bad no state employment, save that he was some short time President of the Council, and one of the ordi- nary Lords of the Session, from which he was removed anno l62G.a I think it not foreign here to remark of this noble Lord, that he was so very well acquainted with his own affdirs, that he made exact inventories of all his charters and writs, which was very happy for the family afterwards, for the charter chest being concealed under ground for preservation in the time of the civil war, the writs were so entirely defaced at the Restoration, that they were become illegible, but by reason of the character this Earl had of integrity, these very inventories were by order of par- liament appointed to supply the place of the ancient records and evidences of the family, the clerk register signing every page of the book in which they were written. This worthy Lord1, departing this life in February 1045, c was interred at the church of Hadingtoun with his ancestors; and the learned Mr. Drummond, of Hawthornden, made this epitaph upon him: Of those rare worthies who adorn'd our North, And shin'd like constellations, thou alone Rcmainedst last, great Maitland, charg'd with worth Second in vertue's theatre to none, But finding all eccentric in our times, Religion into superstition turn'd, Justice silene'd, exiled, or inurn'd, Truth, faith and charity reputed crimes, z Chaita in Rotulis jacebi Vf. a Balfour's Ann.iir. k See his character in Lord Clarendon's Hist.

By Isabel his wife, only daughter of Alexander, Earl of Dum- fermling, Lord High Chancellor of Scotland, by Lilias his wife, daughter of Patrick, Lord Drummond, he had First, John, Duke of Lauderdale. Second, Robert, who married Margaret, daughter and sole heir of John Lundin of that Ilk, by whom he had one daughter, Sophia Lundin of that Ilk, married to John, Earl of Melfort. Third, Charles, thereafter Earl of Lauderdale. John, second Earl, afterward Duke of Lauderdale, and Earl of Guilford, in the beginning of the civil war was among the most forward for the covenant, and prosecuted it for some time with the most eminent animosity. d He was much trusted by that party in the. management of affairs both in church and state. When he was a very young man, his Lordship was sent one of the Com- missioners from the church of Scotland to the Assembly of Divines at Westminbter, anno 1043, for the framing a new model of go- vernment in the church. The next year he was appointed one of the Commissioners from the States of Scotland to treat with the King at Uxbridge;e but that treaty ending without the effect desired, he was again commissioned from the parliament to treat with his Majesty at Hampton Court in the year l64/,f the con- clusion of which was the raising an army from Scotland toward therescue of his Majesty. As soon as the army was ready to march into England, his I ordship was sent over to Holland to require that the Prince of Wales might repair to the Scots army, which was agreed to in the treaty; but the misfortune that befel the army at Preston put a stop thereto, so that the Earl, after a few weeks stay at the Hague, bent his course homeward to employ his interest for serving the King; but before he came thither, he came to understand that the state of affairs was so much altered, that the engagement was declared unlawful, and to what penalties he himself and all others who were die promoters thereof were liable to; whereupon, 4 The Earl of Clarfer.don's History of the Civil War. e Ibid. f Ibid. 304 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. without suffering his ship to go into any port, he returned again into Hollands to offer his service to the Prince, who by that time was become King by the murder of his father. Here my Lord Lauderdale staid till after his Majesty's coming over to Scotland in 160O: his Lordship soon followed, though he was not admitted to come near the court, or so much as wait upon the King till the meeting of the parliament 16.51, wherein all the different parties seemed to be united for his Majesty's service.11 His Lordship marched with the King into England. Upon the loss of the army at Worcester he was taken prisoner, and com- mitted to the Tower, where he underwent a long and severe im- prisonment for the space of nine years. At length by the restoration of his Majesty, in 1660, he ob- tained his liberty, when his Lordship became the Prime Minister of State; and for the space of twenty years he disposed of all the offices and honours of the kingdom entirely without a rival. He was first constituted sole Secretary of State anno l6'6l, President of the Council, one of the extraordinary Lords of the Session, first Commissioner of the Treasury, when the treasury was turned into commission, and one of the Gentlemen of his Majesty's Bed-chamber: also, in 1669, he was appointed High Commissioner to the parliament, and bore the same character in four succeeding sessions, and had the honour likewise to represent his Majesty's person in the Convention of Estates 16/S: in all which important trusts deporting himself with great ability, his Majesty in testimony thereof, upon the 2d of May, \Q"J1, raised him to the dignity of Duke of Lauderdale, and to the heirs male of his bodyj' also upon the 25th June, 23th of Charles II. his Grace was made a Peer of England, by the title of Eakl or Guilford, k and one of the Privy council in that kingdom 3 and last of all, as a further testimony of his Majesty's favour, he was elected one of the Knights Companions of the most noble Order of the Garter.

" The Earl of Lauderdale," says Burnet, " afterwards made Duke, had been for many years a zealous covenanter; but in the year 47 he turned to the King's interests; and had continued a prisoner all the while after Worcester fight, where he was taken. He was kept for some years in the Tower of London, in Portland castle, and in other prisons, till he was set at liberty by those who called home the King. So he went over to Holland, and since die continued so long, and contrary to all men's opinions, in so high a degree of favour and confidence, it may be expected that I should be a little copious in setting out his character, for I knew him very particularly. He made a very ill appearance; he was very big: his hair red, hanging oddly about him; his tongue was loo big for his mouth, which made him bedew all that he talked to : and his whole manner was rough and boisterous, and very unfit for a court. He was very learned, not only in Latin, in which he was a master, but in Greek and Hebrew. He had read a great deal of divinity, and almost all the historians, ancient and modern : so that he had great materials. He had with these an extraordinary memory, and a copious but unpolished expression. He was a man, as the Duke of Buckingham called him to me, of a blundering understanding. He was haughty beyond expression, VOL. JX. . X 300 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND abject to those he saw he must stoop to, but imperious to all others. He had a violence of passion that carried him often to fits like madness, in which he had no temper. If he took a thing wrong, it was a vain thing to study to convince him : that would rather provoke him to swear, he would never be of another mind : he was to be let alone : and perhaps he would have forgot what he had said, and come about of his own accord. He was the coldest friend and the violentest enemy I ever knew: I felt it too much not to know it. He at first seemed to despise wealth: but he delivered himself up afterwards to luxury and sensuality: and by that means he ran into a vast expense, and stuck at nothing that was necessary to support it. In his long imprisonment he had great impressions of religion on his mind: but he wore these out so entirely, that scarce any trace of them was left. His great ex- perience in affairs, his ready compliance with every thing that he thought would please the. King, and his bold offering at the most desperate counsels, gained him such an interest in the King, that no attempt against him, nor complaint of him, could ever shake it, till a decay of strength and understanding forced him to let go his hold. He was in his principles much against Popery and arbitrary government; and yet, by a fatal train of passions and interests, he made way for the former, and had almost established the latter. And, whereas some by a smooth deportment made the first beginnings of tyranny less discernible and unacceptable, he by the fury of his behaviour heightened the severity of his ministry, which was liker the cruelty of an inquisition than the legality of justice. With all this he was a Presbyterian, and retained his aversion to King Charles I. and his party to his death." This great Duke married, first, Anne, daughter and coheir of Alexander, Earl of Hume, by whom he had only one daughter, Anne, married to John, second Marquis of Tweedale. And after her death, Elizabeth, eldest daughter and heir of William Murray, Earl of Dysart, widow of Sir Lionel Tolmache, of Helmingham, but by her had no succession. The Duke of Lauderdale dying thus without male children, the dignity of Duke extinguished with himself, the honour of Earl devolving upon Charles Maitland, of Hattoun, his brother; which Charles, third Earl of Lauderdale, was constituted Treasurer Deputy, anno 1670, as his Lordship was also one of the Senators of the College of Justice, and General of the Mint during the ministry of the Duke his brother.

[Earl of Granard, in Ireland.'] This family, says the ancient Scotch historian Boece, as quoted by Sir David Dalrymple, were at their beginning called Bois/ but by killing a mighty bear that infested the country, they assumed the name of Forbes, and the coat armour which they now use. They had sundry grants of land in the Mearnes, from King Robert firuce, and the lands of Forbes in the shire of Aberdeen, from King Alexander II.; from whose reign, in the thirteenth century, that castle hath been the seat of the chief branch of the family. Alexander Forbes, the son of Alexander Bois, loyally adhering to King David Bruce (son of the said Robert), against Edward Baliol, who by the assistance of King Edward III. had usurped the crown of Scotland in 1331, was killed in the battle of Dupplin the year after. To him succeeded Sir John Forbes his son, who was knighted by King Robert II. successor to his uncle David (in whose service his father was killed), and being seated at Castle Forbes, was styled Sir John Forbes of that Ilk (a term used in Scotland, when the name of a family and seat are the same), and acquiring from Thomas, Earl of Mar, several lands in the county of Aberdeen, a In 1304, King Edward I. took the castle of Urquhait, and 'slew every person in ir, except the wife of Alexander Bois, lord of the castle, who was then pregnant; the child proved a boy, and he having slain a mighty bear, that in- fested the country, he received the appellation of For-Beast, and this was af- terwards corruptly pronounced Forbej.

Third, Sir John, the third son, who obtained the Thanedom of Formartin, by the marriage of Margery, daughter and heir to Sir Henry Preston, of Formartin, and was founder of the family of Tolquhon, from whom branched those of Foveran, Watertown, Colloden, and others. Sir Alexander, the eldest son, obtained a grant to him and his heirs, 10th December, 1423, from John, Earl of Buchan, of the lands of Mickle-Fintry, Blacktown, and Ballcross; and mar- rying Elizabeth, daughter of Douglas, left issue James, his heir, and a daughter, Annabella, married to Sir Patrick Gray, of Kynneff, Gentleman of the Bedchamber to King James II. of Scotland, and b ancestor to the Lords Gray.

Her Ladyship's behaviour during the as- saults made on her house by the rebels, deserves particular notice; and it appears by the depositions of Arthur Auchmuty, of Castle-Forbes, and Martin Johnston, taken before the said commissioners, 13th September, 1642, that her Ladyship in the very beginning of the rebellion, fearing the dangers which ensued, she en- deavoured to furnish her castle with arms, ammunition, provisions, and men, to resist the rebels; and gathering all her British tenants in the county of L ngford, kept as strong watch and ward as possible. And the rebels soon after robbing all her tenants, with those of the Lady Longford and Sir John Seaton, who there- upon fled to Castle-Forbes for relief, and taking the castle of Longford, murder- ing the garrison after quarter given, prepared to besiege Castle-Forbes, and being 500 strong, built cabbins within musket-shot, and took their cattle, but were re- pulsed four several times ; when beleaguring the castle anew within pistol-shot, and making many trenches, they shot in at the windows, and killed some in the house and some on the walls, but with the loss of about eighty by the fire from the castle. After this they took the ivell by surprise, and in order to deprive the besieged of water, seized a Scottish man that endeavoured to go to the castle, and LORD GRANARD. 315 Ulster, and in the distracted time of the rebellion, an officer of horse: and being zealously affected to the royal interest, " was a commander in the northern parts of Scotland for King Char. II. which," as Sir Philip Warwick writes, " some time after Wor- cester fight cost the English some pains and marches, because the commanders were choice men, such as the Lord Glencairn; Sir Arthur Forbes, and Middleton ; yet Monk at length defeated them; and the very isles of Orkney, the Hebrides and Shetland, were reduced." After this he returned to Ireland, and being com- prehended within the articles made by General Monk with the Lord of Lome, and by the fourth head thereof, to enjoy his estate in Ireland, if the same was not disposed of; the government, in consideration that it did not appear that he ever acted, assisted, or countenanced the rebellion in Ireland, and that the levying of war by him was only in Scotland or England, ordered 17th Au- gust, 1655, that he should enjoy his estates in the counties of Leitrim and Longford. When the Restoration was concerted, between the Lord Broghill and Sir Charles Coote, he was sent to Brussels by Sir Charles, to assure the King, if he would please to come into Ireland, the whole kingdom would declare for him; hanging him, ripped up his belly, and threw him into the well. The castle being near starved for want of water, dug a h. le forty feet deep in the bcrwne, and re- covered water; and when any went out privately to seek relief, the rebels, from time to time, muidered and left them to be devoured by dogs and fowls, calling the Protestants of the castle, puritan dogs and heretics ; traitors to God and the King ; and threatening that man, -woman, and child should be cut off. When no relief was expected from the army, the Lady Forbes gave all her great horsts to eat; and after they were all spent, the besieged eat the stinking cow-hides, which had lain on dunghills in the batane from Christmas, or All-hallow tide, before; and were enforced to dry and grind upon quernes all the old sour grains of malt they could get, and bake them for bread, and the poorer sort eat the weeds from off the dunghills, so that they were put to strange misery and want. And when her Ladyship and Lady Seaton, by letters, earnestly desired leave for the poor to go into the garden, or before the castle-gate, to eat the giass, they refused, with say- ing, they -would hep them till the ravens did eat their guts. And two children going forth to eat weeds, the one was shot dead, and the other wounded. After which a poor woman, whose husband they had apprehended, going to beg his life, with two children at her feet and one at her breast, she and her sucking child were slain, one of the others had his neck broken, and the third hardly escaped. When the besieged were driven to that exigence, that they had nothing to eat, but were all very near to famish, then with much difficulty, Lady Forbes obtained quarter, to march away with their wearing clothes and arms to Trim, where 220 persons, through many dangers and miseries, were conducted, and thence escaped to Dub- lin.

Upon the Restoration he was considered, for his great abili- ties, as a fit person to compose the unsettled state of this king- dom, and was accordingly, 19th March, appointed one of the Commissioners of the Court of Claims, for putting in execution his Majesty's declaration of 30th November, for the settlement of Ireland,e as he was again, 22d May, 1662; having, 9th Fe- bruary, 1(360, been made Captain of a troop of horse; and in l66l, was member of parliament for Mullengar/ In 1(363, the execution of a plot being intended on the 25th of May, by sur- e Collect.

And by the same grant, divers lands were an- nexed to the manors of Castle-Forbes and Aghevehunson, with power to empark Soo acres for deer :n each; and there being a Thursday market, and two fairs, 24th June and 1st November, at Mullengar, the King granted him two additional fairs, to be holden there iSth August and 26th March.

CREWE, LORD CREWE. !f T Ihe township of Crewe, in the parish of Bar thorn ley, in Cheshire, which lies about four miles' S.W. by S. from Sandbach, was," says Lysons, " from a very early period, the seat and in- heritance of the family of Crue, or Crewe. About the year 1288, Thomas de Crewe became possessed of a knight's fee, parcel of the barony of Wich-Malbank, which, in 1253, had be- longed to Philippa, Countess of Warwick ; this comprised the lordship of Crewe, to which some other manors were attached as parcel of that lordship. About the year 1300, Joan, eldest daughter and coheiress of Thomas de Crewe, the last male heir of the elder branch of the family, married Richard Praers, whose granddaughter brought Crewe, in marriage, to Sir Robert Fulles- hurst, or Foulshurst, one of Lord Audley's Esquires at the battle of Poictiers. Sir Christopher Hatton purchased it of the Fouls- hursts in 1 3/8. " About the year 1610, Sir Randal Crewe, Serjeant at Law, descended from Patrick, a younger brother of Thomas de Crewe (whose daughter, Joan, three centuries before, brought this estate to the Praers family), purchased the manor of Crewe of Sir Chris- topher Hatton's heirs, and built Crewe-Hall, which, with the manor, continued in his descendants of the male line till the death of John Crewe, Esq. in lfJ84; Anne, his elder daughter, and eventually sole heir, married John Offley, Esq. whose an- cestors had been settled at Madeley Manor, in Staffordshire, as early as the year 123/j John, his eldest son, took the name of Crewe, by act of parliament, in I7O85 and was grandfather of LORD CREWE. 32; of the present proprietor, who, in 1806, was created Baron Crewe."'-1 Patrick Crewe, a fourth son (and younger brother of Tho- mas de Crewe, whose heiress married Foulshurst), had two sons; of whom, David, the younger, was ancestor to the present Peer. But the elder was ancestor to the Crewes of Pulcroft; the co- heiresses of which family married into the families of Boydell, Chetwode, Leycester, and Wetenhall. Of David Crewe, the younger son, the posterity settled at Soonde. Thomas Crewe, great grandson of David, married a daughter of Henry Norbury, Under-Treasurer of England in the reign of Henry VI. And to his second wife, Margaret, daughter of John Patrick, of Nanttvich ; in consequence of which he settled in that town. His descendant, John Crewe, of Nantwich, Gent, (whose monument remained in the church of that place, till taken down when the south gallery was erected; of which, however, the inscription is preserved in Dugdale's Visitation), had issue by Alice Mainwaring his wife, two sons.b a Lysons's Britannia, II. 502. b Ralph Crewe, a younger son of Thomas Crewe, of the Nantwich family, was of Alvaston in the reign of Henry VII. and left an only daughter, married to an ancestor of the Walthalls. The Crewes of Cholmondeston, are said to have been descended from one of the younger branches of the Crewes, of C-ewe Mall, and one pedigree derives their descent from a younger son of Thomas Crew?, son, oi Thomas, who first settled at Nantwich: this branch is supposed to be extinct; none of the family have for many years resided at Cholmondeston. The Crewes, or as they have generally spelt their name, Crues, of Crewe, near Farnaon and Holt, in Denbighshire, are represented in some pedigrees of the family as de- scended from David, a younger son of Thomas Crewe, who died in the rei^n of Edward I. The pedigree in Barthomley church, drawn up by Sir William Dugdale, makes no mention indeed of this David, or of the Crues of Holt, and C ewe near near Farndon; but they are represented as descended from the Crewes, of Crewe- Hall, in a very copiuus pedigree in the British Museum,* which appea-s to have been drawn up hy Randle Holme, from the communications oi Sir John Crewe, of Uikinton. These Crues, of Crewe, became exiinct in the male line in the fifteenth century; the coheiresses married Dod and Bird, and the heiress of Bird married Stringer. The Crues of Holt were of that place from the reign of Ri- chard IL till the death of Samuel Crue, Esq. in 1770: Thomas Crue Dod, Esq. his sister's son, is the present representative of this familv."

During the usurpation he continued faithful to his Prince; and by his great prudence (with no small hazard), loyally contributing his best endeavours for the happy restoration of King Charies II. in testimony of his Majesty's gracious accep- tance of this his laudable service, he was by letters patent, bear- ing date at Westminster the twentieth day of April, in the thir- teenth year of his reign, advanced to the degree and dignity of a Baron of this realm, by the title of Lord Crew of Stene, and to the heirs male of his body. He married Jemima, daughter and coheir of Edward Wal- grave, of Lawford, in com. Essex, Esq. By whom he had issue four sons (the rest dying young) ; viz. First, Sir Thomas Crew, Knt. Secondly, John.

Second, Armyne, wife of Thomas Cartwright. of Aynho, Esq. Third, Elizabeth, wife of Charles, Earl of Arran. Fourth, Catharine, wife of Sir John Harpur,c of Callce, co. Derby, Bart. His Lordship died November 30th, 1697, aet. 74, and was suc- ceeded by his brother, Nathaniel, Bishop of Durham, third Lord Crewe of Stene. " Bishop Crewe," says Hutchinson, d in his History of Dur- ham, " was the fifth son of John, second Lord Crewe, of Stene, in the county of Northampton, by Jemima, daughter and co- heiress of Edward Walgrave, of Lawford, in Essex, Esq. He was born at Stene on the 31st of January, 1633, and, in 1652, was admitted Commoner of Lincoln College in Oxford, where he took the degree of Bachelor of Arts, the 1st January, 1655, and soon after was chosen Fellow of that college. The 29th of June, 1(558, he took the degree of Master of Arts. At the restoration, he declared heartily in favour of the crown and hierarchy, and in 1663, he took the degree of Doctor of Law, and soon after went into holy orders. On the 12th of August, 1608, he was elected Rector of Lincoln College, upon the decease of Dr. Paul Hood. On the 29th of April, 1669, was installed Dean of Chichester, and held with that dignity the Precentorship, in which he had been installed the day before} he was also appointed Clerk of the Closet to King Charles II. In 167I, upon the translation of Dr. Blandford to the See of Worcester, he was elected Bishop of Ox- ford in his room, and consecrated the 2d of July, being allowed to hold therewith, in commendam, the Living of Whitney, and the Rectorship of Lincoln College; but the latter he resigned the 10th of October, 1672. In 16/3, he performed the marriage-ceremony of James, Duke of York, and Maria of Este. Through that Princess's interest (with whose measures he seems to have been very compliant), he was translated to the opulent See of Durham. In the beginning of the year 16/ 5, he baptized Katharina-Laura, the new-born daughter of James, Duke of York. The 26th of April, W76, he was sworn of the Privy-council to Charles II. Upon the accession of James II. to the crown, he was in great favour at court, being thought most obsequious to the will of the c In right of this descent, the present Sir Henry Harpur has within thcsf •few years taken the name of Crewe. «l Hutchinson's History of Durham, Vol. I. pp, 555, 556, 557, 558. 330 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. Sovereign: accordingly, on the 29th of December, 1685, he was made Dean of his Majesty's Chapel Royal, in the room of Henry, Bishop of London, who had been removed; and within a few days after admitted of the Privy-council. In 1686, he was ap- pointed one of the Commissioners in the new ecclesiastical com- mission erected by King James, and was proud of that honour. Bishop Bdrnete says, " He was lifted up with it, and said, now his name would be recorded in history; and when some of his friends represented to him the danger of acting in a court so ille- gally constituted, he said, he could not live if he should lose the King's gracious smiles; so low and so fawning was he." By virtue of that commission, he appeared on the 9th of August at the pro- ceedings against Henry, Bishop of London; and was for suspend- ing him during the King's pleasure, though the Earl and Bishop of Rochester, and Chief Justice Herbert, were against it. Imme- diately after that Bishop's suspension, commissioners were ap- pointed to exercise all manner of ecclesiastical jurisdiction within the diocese of London, of which Bishop Crewe was one. The 20th of November following, he was present at, and consenting to the degradation of Mr. Samuel Johnson, previous to the severe punishment that was inflicted on that eminent divine. In the quality of an ecclesiastical commissioner, he countenanced with his presence a prosecution carried on in May 1 687, against Dr. Peachy, Vice-Chancellor of Cambridge, for refusing to admit one Alban Francis, a Benedictine Monk, to the degree of Easier of Arts in that University, without taking the oaths/ And in July the same year, he offered to attend the Pope's Nuncio at his public entry into London; but his coachman refused to drive him." His name was again inserted in a new ecclesiastical commission, issued out this year, wherein he acted during the severe proceedings against Magdalen College in Oxford, for refusing to elect one Anthony Farmer their President, pursuant to the King's mandate. The Bishop continued acting as an ecclesiastical commissioner (being styled the Grand Inquisitor thereof), till October 1688, when that commission was abolished. Towards the end of the year 16S/, he was employed, with the Bishops of Rochester and Peterborough, to draw up a form of thanksgiving for the Queen"s being with child. Thus he constantly complied with the King's e Vol. I. p. 676, edit, 17Z4. { Kennet's Cumpl. Hist. p. 501. S Kennel's Compl. History, p. 594.

Notwithstanding all this, bis thorough compliance with the late court's arbitrary designs, had rendered him so ob- noxious to the nation, that he was excepted by name out of the pardon granted by William and Mary the 23d of May, l6g0.k The Bishop was so terrified with this public mark of ignominy, that he absconded for a time, and actually fled beyond sea. Ken- net1 says, " that he despaired of any favour at the Revolution, and was once got beyond sea in a flight; but being brought back by the importunities of a domestic servant, he made fresh interest in the new court and parliament, and bought off the complaints of Mr. Samuel Johnson, and others, who had suffered by him.'' Bishop Burnet likewise tells us,m " The poor Bishop of Durham, who had absconded for some time, and was waiting for a ship to get beyond sea, fearing public affronts, and had offered to com- pound by resigning his bishopric," was now prevailed on to come, and by voting the new settlement, to merit at least a pardon for all that he had done; which, all things considered, was thought very indecent in him, yet not unbecoming the rest of his life and character." By what means he effected his purpose is not easy to determine; but it is certain, he made his peace with the court, and preserved his bishopric: in order to secure himself the pos- session of that dignity, he was forced to permit the crown to dis- pose of, or at least to nominate, to his Prebends of Durham as they should become vacant.0 h Rennet's Compl.

During the rest of King "William's reign, he remained quiet and unmolested, though not much considered. In 1710* he was one of the Lords that op- posed the prosecution then carried on against Dr. Sacheverell, de- clared him not guilty, and protested against several steps taken in that affair. In the latter part of his life he applied himself chiefly to works of munificence and charity: he was a great benefactor to Lincoln College, whereof he had been Fellow and Rector; and laid out laige sums in beautifying the palace at Durham. Many men have been canonized tor much inferior works of beneficence than those of this Prelate; his mistaken principles in the affairs of government, though they stain his memory, under the pens of political writers, are all obliterated from the benevolent mind by his charity and extensive acts of munificence. p A short time before his death, June 24th, 1720, his Lordship devised to trustees, his estates at Bamborough, and elsewhere, in Northum- berland, then lately purchased, and of the annual value of 13121. 13 s. or thereabouts, for various munificent and charitable purposes, which are detailed at length in Hutchinson's History of Durham, I. 558, &c. He held the See of Durham forty-seven years; as he had done that of Oxford three; continuing a Bishop fifty years, three months, and two days; which was longer than any Englishman ever enjoyed that honour, except Thomas Bourchier, Archbishop of Canterbury, who held the Sees of Worcester, Ely, and Canter- bury, fifty-one years, and twenty-one days. His Lordship dying without issue, the title of Lord Crewe of Stene became Extinct with him. The character given of hh Lordship by Dr. Kippis, in the Bio- graphia Britannia, is much less flattering than that of Mr. Hutchinson. He observes, that " there was little in the cha- racter and conduct of this Prelate, which could entitle him to a place in the Biographia. He was distinguished indeed, by pass- P Dr. Kippis, in the Biographia Britannica, observes, that " this encomium would have been more just, if the Bishop's generosity had not been displayed so late in life ; and indeed if it had not been for the most part posthumous. His benefrxtions during the space of forty-seven years were not to be compared with those which, in eleven years, had flowed from his predecessor in the See of Durham, Dr. Cosin." LORD CREWE. 333 ing through a variety of ecclesiastical preferments; by being the Rector of a college; and by sustaining for an uncommon length of time a very high rank in the church; but he was not celebrated cither for his learning, or for other eminent qualities. We do not read of any thing that was published by him; and his bene- factions to Lincoln College did not take place till he was between eighty and ninety years of age. As a Peer of the realm, he makes no figure in the annals of his country, unless his having joined in some Tory protests is to be considered in that light. The chief historical event of his life reflects nothing but dishonour on him; we mean his being one of King James IPs ecclesiastical commis- sioners, together with his behaviour in that character, which was marked with servility. Indeed this servile spirit had been dis- played by him many years before, on his promotion to the Bishop- ric of Durham," &c. " Vanity was among the other qualities which detracted from the Bishop of Durham." But, " with all the faults of the Bishop, he was possessed of some amiable quali- ties. He was hospitable, generous, and charitable; though it is said, that his charity was sometimes observed to be exerted with too much ostentation. He made large bequests by his last will to the purposes of religion, education, and charity;"0! as has been already mentioned. His Lordship married, first, Penelope, daughter of Sir Philip Frowde, who died set. 44, March gth, l6gQ; and, secondly, Do- rothy, daughter of Sir William Forster, of Bamborough, in Northumberland, who died October 15th, 1/15, aged 42. His Lordship died without issue, September 18th, 1721, aged eighty-eight, and was buried at Stene. We now return to Sir Randolph Ckewe, elder brother te Sir Thomas Crewe, of Stene, Serjeant at Law. Fuller, with his usual quaint vivacity, says in his Worthies of Cheshire, " Sir Randal Crew was born in this county, bred in the study of our municipal Law, wherein such his proficiency, that (after some steps in his way thereunto), in the 22d of King James, he was made Lord Chief Justice of the Upper Bench, and therein served two Kings, though scarce two years in his office, with great integrity. King Charles's occasions calling for speedy supplies of money, some great ones adjudged it was useless to venture on a parliament (for fear in these distempered times, the physic would side with the disease), and put the King to fur- ^ Kippis's Biogr.

Sir Randal being demanded his judgment of that design, and the consequence thereof (the imprisoning of recusants to pay it), openly manifested his dislike of such preter-legal courses; and thereupon, November yth, 1(320, was commanded to forbear his sitting in the court; and the next day was by writ discharged from his office; whereof he disco- vered no more discontent, than the weary traveller is offended, when told that he is arrived at his journey's end. " The country hath constantly a smile for him, for whom the court hath a frown. This Knight was out of office, not out of honour, living long after at his house in Westminster, much praised for his hospitality. " Indeed he may the better put off his gown (though before he goeth to bed), who hath a warm suit under it; and this learned Judge, by God's blessing on his endeavours, had purchased a fair estate, and particularly Crewe-Hall, in Cheshire (for some ages formerly the possession of the Fulshursts), but which probably was the inheritance of his ancestors. Nor must it be forgotten, that Sir Randal first brought the model of excellent building into these remote parts; yea, brought London into Cheshire, in the loftiness, sightliness, and pleasantness of their structures. One word of his Lady; a virtuous wife being very essential to the in- tegrity of a married judge, lest what Westminster-Hall doth con- clude, Westminster bed-chamber doth revoke. He married Julia, daughter and coheir of John Clipsby, of Clipsby, in Norfolk, Esq. with whom he had a fair inheritance. She died at Kew, in Surrey, in l623j and lietli buried in the chancel of Richmond, with this epitaph: " Antiqua fuit orta domus, pia vixit, inivit Virgo pudica thorum, sponsa pudica polum." " I saw this worthy Judge in health 1642, but he survived not long after." r Sir CLirsBY Crewe, son and heir of Sir Randolph, had two sons ; First, John. Second, Randal Crewe, Esq. whom Fuller thus records.

His successor (perhaps first cousin), was John Crewe, Esq. (great grandson of Sir Randolph), the last male heir, who died 1684, leaving two daughters, his coheirs; of whom, Elizabeth, the youngest, married Charles Turner, Esq. but died without issue.

KENNEDY, LORD AILSA, [Earl of Cassilis, in Scotland.'] The progenitors of this noble and illustrious family were consi= derable proprietors, and had large possessions in the west of Scotland (particularly Carrick) before surnames were much used in this country. That a family of rank and figure in Carrick, were the un- doubted ancestors of the Kennedies of Cassilis, and that they assumed their surname from their being head or chief of that family, is sufficiently instructed by the following connexion of authentic documents and charters from father to sonj so that those historians, who allege that the first of this family came from Ireland, must have been in a mistake. I. Duncanus de Carrick flourished in the reign of Mal- colm IV. who succeeded to the crown of Scotland, anno 1153. Being possessed of a considerable estate in Carrick, he and his posterity were for some time designed by that name. He left issue a son and successor. If. Nicholaus de Carrick, who made a donation to the nuns of North-Berwick, of the patronage of the church of St. Cuthbert at Maybole, in the reign of King William the Lion, who succeeded to the crown in 1 1 65, and died anno 1214. In this donation he is designed Nicholaus de Carrick filius Duncani, &c.a He was succeeded by his son, III. Rolandus de Carrick, who in the reign of Alexander II. sbtained a charter from Nigellus, Earl of Carrick, of the bailiary * Append, to Nisbet, Vol. II. p. 39, ct chart, in pub. archiv. LORD AILSA. 547 of Carrick, to be caput totius prosapiae suae (or chief Of his kin- dred), and to have the command of all the men in Carrick under the said Earl, and his successors, &c. to him and his heirs for ever; which is afterwards confirmed by King Alexander III. the 27th year of his reign, anno 1276, in which he is designed Ro- landus de Garrich, filius de Nicolai, filii Duncani, &c.b All which is fully narrated and confirmed by King Robert II. anno regni secundo. This family being evidently possessed of a large estate, and head of a considerable tribe or clan, began to be called Kenna- dies, from the Galic or Celtic word, Kean-na-ty, which signifies head of the house, or chief of the clan ; and in that country the word Kennady is called Kennaty to this djy. There are several charters in the records, wherein the same persons were designed Carrick in the body, and Kennady on the margin,0 in the reign of King Robert II. by which it is ceitain that Carrick and Kennady were promiscuously used by the heads of this family for a considerable time, though iheir cadets gene- rally took the name of Kennady. Roland was succeeded by his son, , IV. Sir Gilbert de Carrick, who in several authentic writ- ings is designed son of Roland, particularly in the submission of a difference betwixt him and the nuns of North-Berwick j in which Robert Bruce, Earl of Carrick, father of King Robert Bruce, and Robert, Bishop of Glasgow, were arbiters. He is therein designed Gilbertus de Carrick, miles, filius Rolandi, &c. and his seal, which is thereto appended, hath the very same shield of arms which the family of Cassilis carries at this day; which shows, that they had the double tressure floree, and contrafloree, with flower-de-lisses to their arms, long before they matched with the royal -family.*1 This Sir Gilbert was often designed Kennady, and had lands in his possession of the same designation, which appears by the following charter of confirmation from the Earl of Lennox to his son> V. Sir Gilbert de Carrick, or Kennady> who succeeded him. There is a charter of Malcolm, Earl of Lennox, &c.

This Sir Gilbert died about 1290, and was succeeded by his son. VI. Duncan de Carrick, or Kennedy, who made a dona- tion of his patronage of the church of Kilbryde, in Carrick, to the nuns of North-Berwick, wherein he is designed, Duncani Alius domini Gilbert! de Carrick, militis, &c.f As he had begun to drop the name of Carrick, and was more frequently designed by the name of Kennedy, as caput totius pro»apiee, so the cadets of the family, who were now become nu- merous, followed his example, laid aside the name of Carrick altogether, and embraced that of Kennedy, of which there are many examples in our records; but whether any of them were brothers or sons of this Duncan, I cannot determine, viz. Alexander Kennedy was chancellor to John Baliol, anno 1295.8 John Kennedy swore fealty to King Edward I. anno 129f3.h Hugh Kenredy did the same.' Fergusius Kennedy, &c. is to be found in the chartulary of Levenax,k in the beginning of King Robert Brace's reign, &c. and probably a son of Duncan. Duncan was succeeded by his eldest son, ■\ II. Sir Gilbert de Carrick, or Kennedy, who obtained a charter from King Robert Bruce, which contained a full remis- sion for his surrendering the castle of Lochdown to the 'English) in which charter he is designed, Gilbertus de Carrick, miles, filius Duncani, &c. ante 1319- By the same charter, King Robert again receives him into favour, restores him to the government of the castle of Loch- down, and all the lands thereto belonging, which have been part of the property of Cassilis ever since. The witnesses are, Ed- wardus de Brus, Jacobus senescallus Scotiae, Thomas Ranulf, Jo- annes de Menteith, Nigellus Campbell, Jaccbus dominus de Douglas, Alexander Fraser, &c. which is afterwards confirmed by King Robert II. anno regni secundo, 1372.m e Chartul. of Levenax, penes Mac-Farlane, p. ?0. f Nisbet's Append, p. 39. 5 Remarks on Ragman's Roll, p. 20. h Prynne's Collections, Vol. III. p. 6$2. i Ibid. p. 658. k Charter of Levenax, p.

He left issue a son and successor, VIII. Sir John Kennedy, of Dunnure, who, in many authen- tic writs, is designed, rilius Gilberti de Carrick.1" He was a man of good parts, was often employed in nego- tiations of the greatest importance, and always acquitted himself with fidelity and honour. He was one of the commissioners appointed to treat with the English at Newcastle, about King David's redemption, anno 1354, though it was not completed till 135/.n He got a charter from King David II. of several lands in co- mitatu de Carrick infra vicecomitatum de Air, anno 1360. He likewise acquired from Marjory, daughter of Sir John Montgomery, Knight, the lands and larony of Cassilis, which hath been in the family's possession ever since. The same was ratified by a charter from King David II. anno 1362.° In the reign of said King David, he founded a church at May- bole, in Carrick, with a chaplainry, which he largely endowed. The foundation charter, in which he is designed, Johannes Ken- nedy, dominus de Donnonure, bears, pro salubri statu mei, Mariae uxoris meae, et liberorum suorum quamdiu egerimus in humanis, et pro animabus nostris, &c. to which his seal is appended; also sigillum domini Gilberti Kennedy, militis, filii sui et haeredis: all which is narrated at large in a charter of confirmation of King Robert II. testibus Johanne, primogenito suo, comite de Carrick, Roberto comite de Menteith, Willielmo comite de Douglas, Jo- hanne de Carrick, cancellario Scotiae, Willielmo de Keith mares- callo, Jacobo de Lindsay, Roberto de Erskine militibus, &c. dated at Dundonald, anno regni primo.J He obtained from said King Robert a charter, medietat. ba- roniae de Dalrymple, & infra vicecomitatum de Air, que fuit Mal- comi filii Adae de Dalrymple, &c. anno 1371.

Second, Sir Hugh Kennedy, of Ardstincher, who acquired great reputation and honour, for his gallant behaviour in the French wars against the English, under the command of John Stewart, P2arl of Buchanji for which he was honoured by the King of France with arms; viz. Azure, three jlower-de-Usses Or, which he and his successors marshalled in the first and fourth quarters, with those of Kennedy in the second and third.1' Mr. Nisbet farther says, that the Kennedys of Margenie, Thirskhill, and Binning, in the shire of Air, are descended of this Sir Hugh, because they carry the jlower-de-iisses in their arms, which no other family of the name of Kennedy does;s and that the Ken- nedies of Bargeny, were long proprietors of the barony of Ard- stincher, which was the designation and inheritance of this Sir Hugh, he. Third, John, who appears to have been ancestor of the Ken- nedies of Culzean. John Kennedy, of Culzean, who got a charter from King James II. of several lands in Airshire, anno I44g, was his son, or grandson;1 which estate afterwards returned to the family. Sir John was succeeded by his eldest son, IX. Sir Gilbert Kennedy, of Dunnonure, who, when very young, was one of the noble Scotch heirs that were sent hostages to England for King David's ransom, anno 135/.U He got a charter from King Robert II. villae de Kirkintulloch, dated anno 13/3." He was a man of singular merit, and in great favour with King Robert III. who first conferred upon him the honour of knighthood, and afterwards gave him a great many lands in the Earldom of Carrick, then in the crown.* There is a confirmation of Duncan, Earl of Lennox, of a charter granted by dominus Gilbertus Kennedy, dominus de Dun- nure, miles, terrarum de Buchmonyn, Kennedy, &c. in favour of John Kennedy, son of Fergus, &c. anno 13g3;z to which domi- nus Johannes de Maxwell miles, dominus de Pollock, Alexander de Levenax, Gilbert de Cochrane, &c. are witnesses.

I have not seen the old writs of that family, I shall not pretend to determine whether they are descended of this Thomas, or of Sir Hugh of Ardstincher, as before noticed, though the former appears to me most pro- bable.

Second, James, who devoted himself to the church, entered into holy orders, and became a true ornament to his profession. For true piety, and universal benevolence, he was exceeded by none.

He was one of the privy council to King James II. and chancellor of Scotland in anno 1444. He was one of the regents oi the kingdom in King James Ill's minority, and had the chief direction of all state affairs; which he managed with such prudence and discretion, that his whole conduct was universally approved. He founded St. Salvator's college in St. Andrews, and nobly endowed it. His other acts of piety and munificence are too nu- merous to be here narrated.

He married, secondly, Christian, daughter of John Muschet, of Craighead, by whom he had several daughters; of whom are descended Campbell of Stonefield; Macnau^hton of that Ilk; Campbell of Airds; and Campbell of Ardchattan, &c. &c. He was succeeded by his son, Sir John Campbell, of Glenorchy, first Earl of Bread d bane, a man of sound judgment, great capacity, and accounted one of the ablest statesmen of his time. He gave many instances of his loyalty and attachment to King Charles II. during the usurpation; and gave great assist- ance to General Middleton and his forces, in the Highlands. He used his utmost endeavours with General Monk, to declire for a free parliament, which he thought was the most effectual way to restore the King. For all which his good services, King Charles was pleased to create him a Peer, by the title of Earl of Caithness, 28th June, 1 6/7 > which title he afterwards exchanged for that of Breadalbane, &c. with his Majesty's approbation; upon which he got a new patent, with the former precedency, " To him and any of his sons, by his first wife, whom he should think fit to name, by a writ under his hand any time of his life, &c. &c.s The words of the patent are, " Creamus, &c. praefatum Johan- nem Campbell, et quemcunque ex filiis suis, inter euro et de- mortuam dominam Mariam Rich, ejus primam sponsam, procrea- tum, quern dictus Johannes Campbell, per scriptum et denomi- nationem sub manu sua, quocunque tempore ejus vitse, nominare et designare idoneum judicabit; haeredesque masculos ex corpore dicti sui filii (ita designand.) procreandos; quibus deficientibus, haeredes, masculos procreatos seu procreandos, ex corpore dicti Johannis Campbell; quibus deficientibus, propinquiores et legiti- mes ejus haeredes quoscunque, comites de Breadalbane et Hol- land, vice-comiies de Tay et Paintland, dominos Glenorchy, Be- nederaloch, Ormelie, et Weik, &c. data l3tio Augusti, 1681." He was likewise in great favour with King James VII. was one of his privy council, and served him faithfully while he con- LORD BREADALBANE. 375 tinued on the throne; but after he went away, and there appeared no further hopes of his returning, the great love and affection he had to his native country, made him bend all his thoughts to get peace and tranquillity settled in the nation; and therefore he used his utmost endeavours to get the Clans to lay down their arms, judging it impossible for them to accomplish their designs. His behaviour at this period of life has been censured by some, thousr'n his conduct in general is vindicated by others. Thus Lord BreaJa'bane, according to Bishop Burnet, makes a disadvanta- geous figure in the affair of Glr ncoe, of which the Bishop gives the following account : " There was, at this time, a very barba- rous massacre committed in Scotland, which shewed both the cruelty and the treachery of some of those who had unhappily insinuated themselves into the King's confidence. The Earl of Braidalbin formed a scheme of quieting all the Highlanders, if the King would give twelve or fifteen thousand pounds for doing it, which was remitted down from England; and this was to be divided among the heads of the tribes, or clans of the Highlanders. He employed his emissaries amoig them, and told them, the best service they could do King James, was to lie quiet, and reserve themselves to a better time; and if they would take the oaths, the King would be contented with that, and they were to have a share of the sum that was sent down to buy their quiet; but this eame to nothing; their demands rose high; they knew this Lord had money to distribute among them; they believed he intended to keep the best part of it to himself; so they asked more than he could give: among the most clamorous and obstinate of these, were the Macdonalds of Glencoe, who were believed guilty of much robbery, and many murders; and so had gained too much by their pilfering war, to be easily brought to give it over. The head of that va.ley had so particularly provoked Lord Braidalbin, that as his scheme was quite defeated by the opposition that he raised, so he designed a severe revenge. The King had, by a proclamation, offered an indemnity to all the Highlanders that had been in arms against him, upon their coming in by a prefixed day to take the oaths; the day had been twice or thrice pro- longed; and it was at last carried to the end of the year )6cjl; with a positive threatening, of proceeding to military execution against such as should not come into his obedience by the last day of December. " All were so terrified that they came in; and even that Macuonaid went to the governor of Fort William, on the last of 3?6 PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. December, and offered to take the oaths; but he, being only a military man, could not, or would not tender them; and Mac- donald was forced to seek for some of the lesfal magistrates, to tender them to him. The snows were then fallen, so four or five days passed before he could come to a magistrate; he took the oaths in his presence on the fourth or fifth of January, when by the strictness of law he could claim no benefit by it; the matter was signified to the Council; and the person had a reprimand for giving him the oaths when the day was past. " This was kept up from the King; and the Earl of Braid- albin came to court, to give an account of his diligence, and to bring back the money, since he could not do the service for which he had it. He informed against this Macdonald as the chief person who had defeated that good design ; and that he might both gratify his own revenge, and render the King odious to all the Highlanders, he proposed, that orders should be sent for a miltary execution on those of Glencoe. An instruction was drawn by the Secretary of State, to be both signed and counter- signed by the King (that so he might bear no part of the blame, but that it might lie wholly on the King), that such as had not taken the oaths by the time limited, should be shut out of the benefit of the indemnity, and be received only upon mercy. But when it was found, that this would not authorise what was in- tended, a second order was got to be sighed and countersigned, that if the Glencoe men could be separated from the rest of the Highlanders, some examples might be made of them, in order to strike terror into the rest. The King signed this without any enquiry about it; for he was too apt to sign papers in a hurry, without examining the importance of them. This was one effect of his slowness in dispatching business : for as he was apt to suffer things to run on, till there was a great heap of papers laid before him; so then he signed them a little too precipitately. But all this while, the King knew nothing of Macdonald's offering to take the oaths within the time, nor of his having taken them soon after it was past, when he came to a proper magistrate. As these orders were sent down, the Secretary of State writ many private letters to Levingstoun, who commanded in Scotland, giving him a strict charge, and particular directions for the execution of them: and he ordered the passes in the valley to be kept, describing them so minutely, that the orders were certainly drawn by one who knew the country well. He gave also a positive direction, "bat no prisoners should be taken, that so the execution might he LORD BREADALBANE. WI as terrible as was possible. He pressed this upon Levingstoun, with strains of vehemence, that looked as if there was something more than ordinary in it; he indeed grounded it on his zeal for the King's service, adding, that such rebels and murderers should be made examples of. " In February a company was sent to Glencoe, who were kindly received and quartered over the valley; the inhabitants thinking themselves safe, and looking for no hostilities; after they had staid a week among them, they took their time in the night, and killed about six and thirty of them, the rest taking the alarm, and escaping: this raised a mighty outcry, and was published by the French in their gazettes, and by the Jacobites in their libels, to cast a reproach on the King's government, as cruel and barba- rous; though in all other instances it had appeared, that his own inclinations were gentle and mild, rather to an excess. The King sent orders to inquire into the matter; but when the letters, writ upon this business, were all examined, which I myself read, it appeared, that so many were involved in the matter, that the King's gentleness prevailed on him to a fault; and he contented himself with dismissing only the Master of Stair from his service. The Highlanders were so inflamed with this, that they were put in as forward a disposition as the Jacobites wished for, to have rebelled upon the hrst favourable opportunity: and indeed the not punish- ing this with a due rigour, was the greatest blot in his whole reign, and had a very ill effect in alienating that nation from the King and his government." His Lordship was a great enemy to the Union in 1/C(5, think- ing it inconsistent with the honour and independency of his coun- try. It is alleged he was engaged with my Lord Mar in the rebellion anno 1/15; but his advanced age, and the great loyalty of his sen, the Lord Glenorchy, made his conduct in that affair to be overlooked. He married, first, Lady Mary Rich, daughter of Henry, Earl of Holland, in England, by whom he had issue two sons; First, Duncav, who died unmarried. Second, Jrhn, Lord Glenorchy, who became his heir. He married, secondly, Lady Mary Campbell, Countess Dow- ager of Caithness, and daughter of Archibald, Marquis of Argyle, by whom he had a son, Mr. Colin Campbell, who died in the flower of his age. He had likewise a daughter, Lady Mary, married to Archibald Cockburn, of Langton, Esq. 37S PEERAGE OF ENGLAND. The Earl died in 1716, in the eighty-first year of his age, and was succeeded by his son, John, second Earl of Breadallane, who was one of the six- teen peers for Scotland to two British parliaments, called to meet in 1/34 and 1741 ; was Lord Lieutenant of the county of Perth; and was a firm friend of the present establishment, both in church and state. He married, first, Lady Frances Cavendish, daughter and co- heiress of Henry, Duke of Newcastle; but she died without sur- viving issue. He married, secondly, Henrietta, sister to Edward, first Earl of Jersey, and daughter of Sir Edward Villiers, Knight, son of Edward, Viscount Grandison, by whom he had a son, John, his heir; and two daughters. First, Lady Charlotte, a lady of fine accomplishments, died unmarried. Second, Lady Harriot, who, in 173(5, was appointed one of the Ladies of the Bedchamber to their Royal Highnesses Amelia and Caroline. This Earl died in 1752, and was succeeded by his son, John, third Earl of Breadallane, who, in 1718, was made Master of the Horse to the Princess Royal. In 1720, he was Envoy Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to the court of Den- mark. In 1725, he was created one of the Knights of the Bath. In 17275 he was member of parliament for the borough of Saltash, in the county of Cornwall; and after his father's death, was elected one of the Sixteen Scotch Peers to the British parlia- ment, anno 1754. He marred, first, Lady Amabell Grey, eldest daughter and co-heiress of Henry, Duke of Kent, and by her he had a son, Henry, who died young; and a daughter, Lady Jemima, who, in May 1740, was married to Philip, then Viscount Royston, eldest son, and apparent heir of Philip, Earl of Hardwicke, Lord High Chancellor of Great Britain, and suc- ceeded to her grandfather, Henry, Duke of Kent, as Marchio- ness Grey, in June following. (See title Baroness Lucas, in Vol. VII.) Her mother, Lady Amabell, dying at London, in March 1726, the Earl, in 1730, married, secondly, Mrs. Arabella Pershall, granddaughter and hei/ess of Sir Thomas Pershall, of Great Sng- nal, in the county of Stafford, Baronet, by whom he got a very LORD BREADALBANE. 379 considerable estate in that county; and by her, who died Septem- ber 2d, 1762, had issue, First, George, who died in his infancy.

All the traditional accounts of him, the historians of the last age, and its best authors represent him as the most incorrupt lawyer, and the honestest statesman; as a master orator, a genius of the finest taste, and as a patriot of the noblest and most extensive views; as a man who dispensed blessings by his life, and planned them for posterity He was at once the model of Addison, and the touchstone of Swift : the one wrote from him; the other for him. If he is to be compared with Bacon, the superior penetration of genius cannot be denied to Bacon; the virtue will all be Somers's. If he must be compared with another chancellor, it must not be with Clarendon, who was more morose and severe, had less capacity, and a thousand more prejudices : the great Chancellor De l'Hospital, seems to resemble Somers most in the dignity of his soul, and the elegance of his understanding. The momentous times in which he lived, gave Lord Somers opportunities of displaying the extent of his capacity, and the patriotism of his heart; opportunities as little sought for the former, as they were honestly courted and pursued for the latter. The excellent balance of our constitution never appeared in a clearer light than with relation to this Lord; who, though impeached by a misguided House of Commons, with all the in- temperate folly that at times disgraced the free states of Greece, yet had full liberty to vindicate his innocence, and manifest an integrity, which would never have shone so bright, unless it had been judicially aspersed. In our constitution, Aristides may be traduced, clamoured against, and when matter is wanting, sum- mary addresses may be proposed, or voted for removing him for ever from the service of the government; but happily the factious and the envious have not a power of condemning by a shell, which many of them cannot sign. It was no inglorious part of this great Chancellor's life, that when removed from the administration, his labours were still dedicated to the service of the government and his country. In this situation, above all the little prejudices of a profession, for he had no profession but that of Solon and Lycur- gus, he set himself to correct the grievances of the law, and to amend the vocation he had adorned. The Union of the kingdoms was projected, too, by him; and it was not to his disgrace, that the Princess, whose prejudices he had conquered, and whose esteem he had gained, offered him up as one of the first sacrifices on the altar of Utrecht. Such deathless monuments of his abili- ties and virtue, diminish the regret we should otherwise feel, that though Lord Somers wrote several pieces, we are ignorant even 42S BARONS EXTrNCT. of the titles of many of them, so little was fame his object."

Sir Robert Naunton says, that he was a goodly gentleman, of a brave and noble nature, and con- stant to his friends and servants. Also that there was such an antipathy in his nature, to that of the Earl of Leicester's, that being together in court, and both in high employments, they grew to a direct frowardness, and were in continual opposition, the one setting the watch, and the other the centinel, each on the others actions and motions : for this Earl of Sussex was of a great spirit, which backed with the Queen's special favour, and supported by a great and ancient inheritance, could not brook the other's empire ; insomuch as the Queen, upon several occa- sions, had somewhat to do to appease and retain them, until death parted the competitors, and left the place to Leicester. Of this Earl it is also confidently affirmed, that lying in his last sickness, he gave this caveat to his friends : " I am now passing " into another world, and must leave you to your fortunes, and " the Queen's grace and goodness ; but beware of the Gipsy, ," (meaning Leicester,) IC for he will be too hard for you all 3 you " know not the beast so well as 1 do."

But it has never been determined, perhaps under an idea that an early abeyance had not been determined in favour of the Grey family, (who were only coheirs,) till the time of Richard Grey, Lord Powis, who died in 1466, which would not extend the exclu- sive inheritance to his sister Elizabeth, wife of Sir Roger Kynas- ton ; her grandfather, Sir John Grey, having married Joan, who was only a coheir of Edward Charleton, Lord Powis, with Joyce, who married John Lord Tiptoft, whose son John, Lord Tiptoft, was created Earl of Worcester, and whose three sisters were his coheirs, Philippa, married to Thomas Lord Roos, Joane to Sir PIdmund Inglethorpe, Kt. and Joyce to Edmund, son and heir of John Lord Dudley.

Robert Sydney, Viscount Lisle, afterwards Earl of Leicester, was summoned to parliament in bis father's lifetime, as Lord Sydney of Penshurst, and took, as u^ual, the precedence belong- ing to this, his father's, Barony. In 1782, Mrs. Perry, his grand- daughter and heir, claimed this Barony, in right of this summons, as a Barony in fee, though it had been originally created by let- ters patent, in the reign of James I. and as such, only descend- ible in the male line. It was resolved against the Claimant. See Cruise, 205, 21 1. Earldom of Anglesea. Arthur Annesley, Viscount Valentia, (at present Earl of Mountnorris,) in Ireland, claimed in 1/70 the English Earldom of Anglesea, &c. as legitimate son of the last Earl who died in 1761, on the ground that his father was privately married to his mother Juliana, Countess of Anglesea, in 1741, prior to his birth ; but this marriage was not allowed by the English House of Lords, in direct contradiction to a determination of the Irish House of Lords by which he was admitted to the Irish honours. Barony of Chandos. See an account of this case in Vol. VI. Earldom of Banbury. William Knollis was created Lord Knollis, and Viscount Wallingford, by King James I and Earl of Banbury by King Charles I. He died 1632, aged 88, leaving a widow, Elizabeth CLAIMS OF PEERAGE. 48/ daughter to Thomas Earl of Suffolk, who had two sons, Edward and Nicholas, who, it was contended, were the issue, not of Lord Banbury, but of Lord Vaux. On the decease of Edward, S. P. Nicholas assumed the title of Earl of Banbury, and sat in the convention parliament, lrjfJO, which was dissolved on the 29th of December, that year. In the following parliament tha summons to him was omitted ; on which he presented a petition to the King, for such summons. The King referred the petition to the House of Peers ; who referred it to a committee, and this committee reported in his favour, 1st July, 1661. The house ordered counsel to be heard at the bar on this report; and then on the 19th of July, reported the same way, but the confirma- tion of this report appears to have been got rid of by various de- lays ; and the petitioner died on March 14th, 1(5/3-4, without having ever obtained his writ of summons. Jn 1685, his son Charles, calling himself Earl of Banbury, petitioned the House of Peers, to examine the proceedings in his case, on which various orders were made ; but these were defeated by adjournments and prorogations of the House, and no decision was come to. In 1692, he had the misfortune to kill his brother-in-law, Philip Lawson. Esq. in a duel, and was indicted at Hicks's Hall, by the name of Charles Knollys, Esq. when he petitioned the House to be tried by his peers, and the House having entered on this peti- tion, and heard counsel, came to a resolution, that the petitioner had no right to the title of Earl of Banbury. Meantime the in- dictment was removed into the King's Bench, and the defendant pleaded in abatement, that he was Earl of Banbury, for that " William Knollys, Viscount Wallingford, by letters patent under the Great Seal of England, which he produced in Court, bearing date August 18th, 2 Charles I. was created Earl of Ban- bury, to him and the heirs male of his body ; that William had issue Nicholas, who succeeded him in the said title, and that the said honour descended to him, the defendant, from the said Ni- cholas, as son and heir, et hoc paratus est verifcare." It was replied that, 14th December, 4 William and Mary, the said de- fendant petitioned the Lords then assembled in parliament, to be tried by his peers, and the Lords disallowed his peerage, and dismissed the petition ; and that this was secundum legem et con- suetudinem parliamenti. The defendant demurred, and the Attorney General joined in demurrer. 4SS CLAIMS OF PEERAGE. After one of the most important arguments in favour of the rights and liberties of the subject, that ever was uttered, even by Chief Justice Holt himself the most upright and magnanimous of all our Judges, it was adjudged that the defendant was not concluded of his peerage by order of the House of Lords. On this Mr. Justice Eyre first said, " the defendant had a title to his honour by legal conveyance, and that it was under the protection of the common law, and could not be taken from him but by legal means. That the House of Lords could no more deprive one of a peerage, than they could confer a peerage; that the defendant's right stood upon the letters patent, and his legitimacy; that the letters patent could not be cancelled without a scire facias; and that the defendant could not now be proved a bastard or illegitimate."* Lord Chief Justice Holt divided his argument into five parts. 1st. That this was no judgment of parliament. 2d!y That this was an original cause, and the House of Lords had no original jurisdiction. 3dly. That here was no judgment. 4thly. That the cause was not before them, 5thly. That there is no law of parliament, with regard tG inheritances, but the law of the land. As to the first, he said, " the Parliament consists of the King, the Lords spiritual and temporal, and the Commons : the judi- cial power is in the Lords only, yet legally and virtually it is the judgment of the King, if not of the Commons ; and writs of error in parliament are coram nobis in prcesenli parliamento, vide Fleta, c. 17. All power of jurisdiction is derived from the King, if that be an author to be credited." As to the second, there were two reasons why they had not an original jurisdiction : first, because original causes were mixed ■with matters of fact, and it was beneath the dignity of the House to be troubled with matters of fact ; but what was more essential, the Lords in parliament are a dernier resort, and are to redress the errors of all other Courts, and therefore a cause shall not come there in the first instance, for this would deprive the party 4>f his remedy, by way of appeal or writ of error. And it is the v/isdom of this nation, and, as he believed, of all nations, to give * Sa'kdtt's Reports, ii. Jic.

Sir William the younger, of Madresfield, by his prodigality and extravagant mode of life, very considerably impaired the estates which had devolved to him, and sold many manors, which he inherited from a long line of ancestors ; he married Elizabeth, daughter and coheiressof John Pleydell, Esq. by whom, (who surviving her first husband, married, secondly, Edmund Knightley, of Grandborough, in the county of Warwick, Esquire, and died l66l ,) he had issue : First, William, his successor. Second, John, of Lincoln College, Oxford, born at Madres- field, March 1616, died unmarried. Third, Margaret, born 1614, married Thomas Moore, of the family of Moore, of Lindly, in the county of Salop. William Lygon, Esq. of Madresfield, the eldest son, was born there, October 1613; and on the death of his father suc- ceeded to the diminished inheritance of his family. In the con- test between Charles the First and his Parliament, which produced such deplorable scenes of tumult and bloodshed, it was almost impossible for any one, whatever might be his station, to observe a neutrality : Colonel William Lygon therefore took the side of the Parliament, and was appointed under that body sheriff of Wor- cestershire, 1647 ; and his name is also recorded in the list of the justices of peace of that county, taken July 10th, 1660. He was soon dispossessed of his garrison of Madresfield, and a governor being appointed by the King, it held out for him till the end of ADDENDA ET CORRIGENDA. 513 the war, or till Worcester surrendered, and then had honourable terms allowed it. This place must have been of considerable strength, as its governor, Captain Ashton, asserted at a council of war that he would engage to hold it for three months against all the enemy's force which might be brought against it. It does not appear, however, that this family at all suffered at the res- toration, in consequence of its former conduct, which can easily be accounted for, as all parties were desirous of burying their for- mer animosities, and of committing to oblivion the horrors of the unhappy contest which had so recently terminated. He died January 30th, 1680, aged sixty-eight. Having married Mary, daughter of Sir Francis Eggiocke, of Eggiocke, in the county of Worcester, by Eleanor, daughter of Francis Dineley, of Charlton, Esquire, she became co-heir to her bi other, and a small portion of their estates still remains among the possessions of the present Lord Beauchamp, her immediate descendant. She died Novem- ber 10th, 1668, aged fifty-nine. The issue of this marriage were : First, William, who died an infant. Second, Richard, of whom hereafter. Third, Francis, born 1640, died young.
