It is also apparent that no documents from the office of the Dataria are printed in Theinor'a work. It is therefore probable that there may bo a valuable store of Scotch dispensations in the Dataria office^ which will it is hoped, be some day published." 42.

Suppose that a male descendant of the body had the title at present, could he have been deprived of his right under a petition to the Crown, which had been sent to the Peen and hy their Lordiihips remitted to a committee of privileges T" " Had Sir Adam ventured to have taken the bold step of bringinir a summons of 2>daraier, ^c, in the Court of Session against the Oificen of State, to have it found and declared that the title had been usurped by tlie heir male, and that it was a female honour ; the question might have been completely raised and detwmined, and whichever way the summons was disposed of, the decision could not then have been competently taken to appeal.' •) See p. 88, note "a," as to the claim in 1796 of the heir-of-line which was opposed by Sir Walter Montffomenr Cunningham, as heir male, in right of his descent from Andrew, second son of Earl William, 1588 to 1547, as also (without apparently any good resson) by Lady Harriet Don, sister and heir of the last Birl, which Eari, tho' unquestionably, heir male, was noi heir general of the grantee.

(^) The reason for his creation, according to Wraxall (" J/«motr»," vol. ii, pp. 258 — 261, and vol. i, pp. 257-261) was because, owing to a peerage having bf>en granted to Dunning without the cogniznnce of the head of the ministry, it was considered Uiat in order to wipe away the aflront ** some individusl must be without delay raised to the peerage at [the Prime Minister] Lord Rockingham's pertonal recommendation " and that Norton was selected "not so much from inclination as from necessity," his elevation making in all reB|>ccts a good pnrnllel to the peerage conferred on Dunning.

The peerage cUim began (1) in 1584 when " Henry Vemon,(*) Esq., of Rtokesay, Salop,'* claimed the name and style of Lord Powit in right of Anne, his grandmother, cousin and coheir of Edward, the last Lord Powis."

(«) That the creation refers to him (and not to his son) is (with some misgiving) set out in the text, principally because it is asserted by Mr. lliddell (proUibly the best authority in such a matter) in his " Hcply to [Dr. Hamilton of] Bardowie '* [Edin- burgh, 1848, 4to] where mention is made of " a curious and original seal of arms of the head of the house of Cad^w, previous to 1457, which was then appended to a deed subscribed by him.

The banner on the ri^ht, indicative of the nearest descent, displays the anna of Douglas of Dalkeith, the mother of the first Lord, and spouse of his father, Sir John, of Cad2ow," &c. It is also remarked (in the article alluded to in note " a " above) that the creation as a Lord of ParL of the iixth feudal Lord (the husband of the Princess Mary) (in lieu of the fifth feudal Lord, his father) as stated in Wood's edit, of Douglas's peerage **is contradicted by Cratofurd, and as the hitter is supported by Nitbet{A better guide than either) hit view is in this case the true one." {^) The " original constitution " of " all our earlier Baronies [S.], with the exception of Hamilton, is not preserved ; on this account it is impossible to rank our Baronial Peerages correctly. It may be obseiTcd that we had no hereditary Lordehipe of Paiiiament until about the reign [1487-601 of James IL [S.] The Baronial Peerage of Saint John rTorpichen] was attached to the fief and not hereditary."

His ii of 1 176, clearly asserts that Ruphomia was first wife of this Lord, and not a second wife to his father as is often stated, and as was the old view of the case. Mr. M. J. Shaw-Stewart (a most competent authority on such a iwint) is (still) somewhat inclined to this view, and to the date of death of the first Lord {i.e., the Lord Hamilton mentioned in 1456 as the husband of Euphemia) being in 1460, as stated in the Glasgow obUu$, following the mortification of 14 January in that year. He writes, '* No one will suggest that a Papal letter is infaUiJblt in matter of pedigree " and tho' he states that he is unable to broach " any plausible theory for accounting for tbe strange fact that the Pope is made to say that Euphemia was the first wife of the Lord Hamilton who obtained the dispensation in 1 476 " suggests that it possibly might be " Somebody's object to envelope the whole thing in a maze of difficulty and this it would perhaps be, if the Becond Lord (Mary's husband) was the natural son, named " Jamei de IlamiUon " who is mentioned in the charter of 23 Oct. 1455, as fo-it in remainder to the Barony of Hamilton after the first Lord (his father) and the heirs male to be boru of his mnmago with Euphemia, Countess of Douglas."

One, however, whose opinion on Scotch mutters is entitled to the greatest weight, writes on tliis matter as follows. "The titles of Cambridge and Inneiilale are not properly Scotch peerages under any patent of creation. They are indeed included among the numerous minor titles connected with the Dukedom of Hamilton in the i-egrant of 1698, but were probably inserted because the writer of the document had been aware that these titles once belonged to tlie family as English titles." All things coneidei-ed, however, the editor has not ventured to reject them.

(^) This was not the first peerage of Great Britain that had been granted to a Scotch Peer, inasmuch as the Duke of Qupensberry [S.], had been on 26 May 1708, er. Duke of Dover [G.B.], and had taken his seat in the house of Lords accordingly 19 Nov. following. Notwithstanding this, however, the writ of summons was refused to the Duke of Brandon, tho* he continued to sit as a Rfp Peer far SwUand to the end of his life. See vol i, p. 164, note ** d," ntb *' Dover." (0) Ho had the mro distinction of retaining (tho* but for a few weeks) the order of the Thistle with that of the Garter. See vol. i, p. 11, note '*b/* tub " Aberdeen/* as to those similarly honoured. (^) Letters of dispensation were granted 4 Aug. 1718 (after his death) to authorise his name 1)cing numbered among those who hail received installation. A plate (made from wliat was mifl to be an impression of one prepared on the occasion) was in 1886 (some 120 years after liis death) affixed to his stall. See BeltK*8 *' Kniffh^ of the Garter,'^ p. cxxiv. Tliis plate (which as tlio Dukos cfecOA took ^laoe but 8 weeks after hu deeUon must have been prepared in aprodigious hurry) besides soling him " Vuo de C^aieauherauU *' in France, as also K.T., designates him as to his Sooich titles Duke of Hamilton, Marquess of Clydesdale, Earl of Arran, and Lanark,^ Lord of Aven, Machansire, Pomont, and Daire. Thin Iniit Barony is possibly a mistake for InnertiaU (one of tlio Baronies er. with tlio Dukedom in 1643) as the Barony of Daer which was er. with tho Earldom of Selkirk [».] in 1646 would apparently have followed the course of that Earldom. The Baronies attributed to the 1st and 2d Marquess (of whom the latter was afterwards 1st Duke) on their Garter plates of 1623 and 1630 are '< Even and Avendale," as also [the EngUah Barony of] Ennerdale. Tlie 2d Duke was never installed. The next Duke (the first of the house of Douglas) is designated on his plate, 1682, " Due de Hamilton, Marquis de Clidesdale, Comte de Aran, Lanerick et Selkrike [ci«]. Baron de Aven, Machansire, Pomont et Dsire,*' the Barony of Daer being here {riglUli/) introduced with the Earldom of Selkirk. On none of these plates save on the one introduced in 1836 (for the K.G. of 1712) appears the stylo of "Due de Chatellerault*' in France. («) In Mackf 's '* Charadert " it is said of him when "towards 60," that "On the Queen*s accession he made strong efforts to got into the administration, but has not yet succeeded, tho* he is well received at Court ; he is brave in his penon, with a rough air of boldness ; of good sense, very forward and hot for what he undertakes, amUtious and haughty ; a violent enem^, has been very extravagant in his manner of living, but now gn)w covetous ; he is supposed to have some thoughts towards the Crowr op England when the Queen dies, being descended from the house of Stuart, &C. Has a great estate, is of a middle stature well made, of a black coarse complexion, and a brisk look." To this Dean Swift adds : **Hewae made nuuter ef the ordnance ; ei worthy good natured jteraon, very ffeneroue but of a middU undentandififf ; he wu murdered by that viUain Macartney^ an Irieh Soot.'* Bp.

In this family it continued until the reign of Hen. III., when William de Ysondou joined the French king and forfeited his lands. [See vol. iii, p. 290, tub "Eu," (Counts of), feii<1nl Lords of Hastings, 1066 to 1217.] Peter do Savoy, the Queen's uncle, obtiiinod it from the Crown in the reign of Henry III., from which Monarch ho also obtained the Earldom of liichmond in 1241, and for a very long period it was considered as part of tliat honour. By the adherence of John, Duke of Brittany, in 1383 to the Crown of France, it was again forfeited ; restored in 1891 but shortly after ngnin forfeited and finally separated from the Dukedom of Brittany. Joan, wife of Italph Basset of Drayton in 1397, and Ralph Nevill, Earl of Westmoreland in 13U9, had life grants of the Barony of Hastings, and in 1412 the reversion, after the Earrs death, was given to Sir John Pelham, from whose son the Barony passed to the family of Hoo, and was confirmed to Sir Tliomas Hoo by letters patent^ 19 July 1446. by the name of the Castle, Barony, and honour of Hastings.

Bp.

He uses the term of " Baronettets *' for his late wife, Lucy ; he mentions his son as " called Sir Denzell Holies, Baronet,'* apparentiy on the theory that the s. and h. ap. of a Baron (who was also a Baitxmd) was entiUed v.p. by courtesy to his father's Baronetcy.

After the Ispse of about a century (during which period we hear [N. and Q., 6th S. zii. 836] of the premeditated omiaion of this ceremony before George IV. when in Ireland in 1821) one is somewhat surprised to find it reproduced (6), 25 June 1859, before the Queen, though apparently without notice, inasmuch as such notice, in these davs of more accurate investigation as to the " hat-right " of these Lords, would probably * have been fatal to its performance. The exhibitor of this date was the great- great-grandson, and the fourth peer in succession, to tlie (once hatless) " Hatter " of 1762.
