	The special remainder to the baronetcy of Petit created in 1890
	From the London Gazette of 2 September 1890 (issue 26084, page 4773):-
	The Queen has been pleased to direct letters patent to be passed under the Great Seal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland granting the dignity of a Baronet of the said United Kingdom unto Sir Dinshaw Manockjee Petit, of Petit Hall, in the Island of Bombay, Knt. for and during the term of his natural life; and from and immediately after his decease to Framjee Dinshaw Petit, Esq. second son of the said Sir Dinshaw Manockjee Petit, and the heirs male of his body lawfully begotten; and, in default of such issue, with remainder to the heirs male of the body of the said Sir Dinshaw Manockjee Petit.
	Sir Thomas Phillipps, 1st and only baronet
	Phillipps was a bibliomaniac who amassed during his lifetime possibly the largest private collection of books and manuscripts ever assembled. The following biography appeared in the Australian monthly magazine in its issue for June 1970:-
	In 1945 a London bookseller paid £125,000 for the last remaining portion of the library of Sir Thomas Phillipps, the most famous, eccentric, and probably most hated bibliomaniac in history. It had taken Phillipps's descendants 70 years to sell off what had once been the largest collection of rare books and manuscripts ever assembled by one man and the total amount realised was more than £500,000. Today the hoard is scattered among libraries, museums and millionaires' collections all over the world and the fantastic story of how it was put together has been almost forgotten.
	"I wish to own one copy of every book ever printed," Sir Thomas once declared. If he did not succeed it was certainly not for the want of trying. In the process he drove one wife to death, half starved his family, cheated, slandered and was embroiled in an endless series of quarrels. Not until the half-crazy old recluse died in 1872 did scholars discover the real value of his lifelong accumulation. It included 25,000 medieval manuscripts, 200,000 printed books (many of them the rarest in existence) and an almost incalculable hoard of other literary and historic papers. No collector on record had ever reared such a staggering monument to his obsession as Sir Thomas Phillipps.
	Phillipps was born in Manchester in 1792, the illegitimate son of a wealthy calico manufacturer who took him into his household and accepted him as his heir. Two years later Phillipps senior retired and bought the mansion and 6000-acre estate of Middle Hill near the Worcestershire village of Broadway. Young Thomas was reared as befitted a squire's heir. He was a student at [Rugby and] Oxford when his love of old books began to develop into a passion for collecting. He left the university pursued by the clamours of unpaid booksellers, having spent all his allowance on buying every battered old volume on which he could lay his hands.
	His father angrily paid his debts. A few years later came another parental explosion when Thomas turned aside from his books long enough to fall in love. The object of his affection was Henrietta Molyneux, the daughter of an aristocratic but poor Irish family, whom Phillipps senior regarded as a mere fortune hunter. However, in 1818, the old man conveniently died of apoplexy. Two months later Thomas and Henrietta were married and settled into the manor house at Middle Hill. With an income of £10,000 a year and an adoring young wife with many influential connections, the new squire could look forward to a comfortable and prosperous career. The only handicap, the stain of his birth, was removed in 1821 when one of Henrietta's kinsmen, the Duke of Beaufort, persuaded King George IV to create Phillipps a baronet.
	However, Sir Thomas' passion for his library was already deepening into a mania to which every other interest was ruthlessly sacrificed. He spent months in London haggling with booksellers, negotiating with private dealers and sending agents all over the country to ferret out old documents and volumes likely to come on the market. Hundreds of crates arrived at Middle Hill until the library was stacked to the ceiling and they overflowed into bedrooms, passages and even Henrietta's breakfast parlour.
	When his ready cash was all spent, Phillipps pledged his future income or borrowed from money-lenders at enormous interest rather than let a prize escape his grasp. Several times he was threatened with prosecution by booksellers he tried to cheat. In 1822, with writs showering on Middle Hill, the crash came. Leaving two servants to guard his treasure with shotguns, Phillipps fled to Europe with his wife, planning to restore his finances by living in strict economy for several years. However, the temptations dangled before him by booksellers and private owners in Paris, Brussels, Geneva, Berlin and The Hague proved irresistible.
	Scores of the great collections of European princes, nobles and monasteries had been broken up during the upheaval of the Napoleonic Wars and were flooding the antiquarian markets. Raising £15,000 by mortgaging part of his estates, Phillipps plunged into a buying orgy that made the rich English milord the sensation of the bookselling world. His prizes included heaps of glorious illuminated parchments from the abbeys of France and Flanders, classical manuscripts, ancient biblical texts, missals, feudal charters and hundreds of the earliest printed books. Everywhere he travelled he was besieged by dealers only too happy to accept drafts on milord's London bankers - many of which were not honoured for years.
	In 1825, when he decided it was safe to return home, Phillipps took with him 36 huge chests containing the greatest bibliophilic haul ever to reach England in one lot. His catalogue astounded scholarly circles and made him the envy of librarians. His creditors, however, were not so favourably impressed. By 1830 Phillipps owed £25,000 to London booksellers alone and one unfortunate victim was hustled to prison as a bankrupt when the baronet's cheques were returned dishonoured. Unpaid tradesmen laid siege to Middle Hill. Henrietta and her three children were reduced to starvation rations and the staff was cut to a single decrepit retainer. When a tax collector called at the mansion, Phillipps assaulted him with a cudgel and was lucky to escape with a heavy fine.
	In 1831 he was forced to raise another mortgage, ostensibly to pay his most pressing debts. In fact, all the money went into further huge purchases of books and manuscripts. This was the last straw for his unhappy wife. Exhausted by the battle to feed and clothe her children and terrified by the duns [debt-collectors] hammering on the door, she "was seized with an oppression of the brain" and died in March 1832. Phillipps wasted no time on vain regrets. Soon he was asking a friend: "Do you know of any lady worth £50,000 who wants a husband? I am for sale at that price." The baronet's heiress-hunt lasted nine years and his reputation was so unsavoury that eventually he had to settle for a parson's daughter with a meagre dowry of £3500. Even then he took her only after extorting from her widowed mother a contract to pay his wife's yearly clothing allowance.
	Meanwhile, by dint of mortgaging, borrowing, delaying payments by litigation and other dubious expedients, Phillipps went on satisfying his mania. He paid £7500 for a great store of medieval documents from Battle Abbey and another £5000 for the manuscript library of the famous collector Richard Heber [MP for ]. He browbeat the bankrupt William Upcott [1779‑1845] into parting with 32,000 royal and diplomatic letters and other historic papers, the largest hoard of its kind in the world, in exchange for a pension of £150 a year - and then had to be sued for payment. He bought cartloads of valuable old Foreign Office and Treasury papers which he found the Government had been selling to a waste dealer at £8 a ton.
	By the 1840s it was reputed that the Phillipps collection was worth at least £125,000, though the few scholars invited to Middle Hill were horrified by the spectacle they encountered. Amid dust and mouldy bindings, almost every room was crammed to the ceiling with crates, chests and shelves, leaving only narrow passages for the owner to crawl through. Books had gradually ousted the family from bedrooms, dining-room and drawing-room until the servants' quarters became the sole refuge to eat and sleep. No window could be opened. Furniture and wallpaper were rotten with decay. For several years Phillipps had been unable to reach his own bed and reposed on a sofa fully dressed. No cheese was allowed in the house in case it attracted mice. Scattered about were logs smeared with paste which the baronet explained were baits to lure the worms out of his old books.
	In this dim squalor the baronet's three teenage daughters were kept toiling like slaves at the hopeless task of sorting and arranging the mass of treasures. All the girls finally escaped by marrying, but Phillipps never forgave his eldest and favourite, Harriet, for her desertion. Harriet ran away with a young Cambridge scholar, James Halliwell [1820‑1889, Shakespearean scholar and collector of English folk and fairy tales], whom the baronet had unwarily invited to Middle Hill as a reward for collecting manuscripts for him. Thereafter he hounded the "heartless bitch" and her husband with venomous fury for the rest of his life. He accused Halliwell of stealing manuscripts from the [Trinity College, Cambridge] university library. He mortgaged his estate to the hilt and even cut down the timber so that his heiress would inherit as little as possible when he died. Most of the money went in purchases of the rarest items when the famous libraries of the royal Duke of Sussex and the spendthrift Duke of Buckingham came on the market.
	However, in the 1850s the baronet's reputation as a connoisseur suffered a heavy blow through his dealings with the mysterious Constantine Simonides. For years Simonides [1820‑1867] had been travelling around Europe peddling what he claimed were priceless biblical and classical manuscripts obtained from the Greek monasteries of Mount Athos. German experts had branded him a rascally forger. In England the British Museum and the Bodleian Library at Oxford rejected his offers with contempt.
	Phillipps thought he knew better. Simonides was summoned to Middle Hill and before his frauds were finally exposed the Greek had unloaded 22 costly documents on the famous collector. They included a "2000-year-old" Homer written on vellum and the "oldest known" scrolls of Pythagoras, Hesiod, Anacreon and other authors of classical antiquity. Even when the disgraced Simonides died of leprosy in Egypt in 1867, Phillipps was still asserting that at least 10 of his purchases were genuine.
	The baronet's last years were a sordid chronicle of eccentricity verging on madness, morose seclusion, endless law-suits and bitter family quarrels. In 1863 he left ruinous Middle Hill and moved to a much larger house near Cheltenham. Processions of carts took six months to transport his library across the countryside. He died in 1872. The dispersal of his collection began eight years later.
	Sir Lionel Phillips, 1st baronet
	Sir Lionel was a London-born mining magnate in South Africa from the 1890s onwards. The following account of his attempted assassination appeared in The Times on 12 December 1913:-
	Sir Lionel Phillips was shot yesterday in the streets of Johannesburg as he was going to the Rand Club for luncheon. His assailant, named Nisnun [actually Misnun], fired four shots, two of which hit Sir Lionel in the neck and the thigh. Sir Lionel was taken to hospital in a taxicab by Sir Percy Fitzpatrick, who happened to be passing, and at a late hour last night a bulletin was issued that one of the bullets had pierced his lung and the other his liver. The patient's general condition, however, was good.
	From our correspondent - Johannesburg, Dec. 11 [1913]:-
	Sir Lionel Phillips was shot today as he was walking to the Rand Club for luncheon. The best account of the attack is given by a man named Kelly, who took the revolver out of the would-be assassin's hands. Kelly states that he noticed Sir Lionel Phillips walking along the pavement. Opposite Beart's shop a man accosted him, and after a few words drew a revolver and fired a shot. The shot went wide, and Sir Lionel Phillips tried to grip his assailant, who fired a second shot, hitting Sir Lionel in the stomach.
	Sir Lionel crouched and tackled his assailant, again trying to seize the revolver. A third shot was then fired, and Kelly ran to Sir Lionel's assistance. As he reached the spot a fourth shot was fired.
	"As I ran," said Kelly, "the man pointed a revolver at me and appeared to pull the trigger, but it missed fire. I grabbed hold of his pistol arm, and then another man came to my aid and seized the murderer's other arm. When the police arrived we handed the man over. When I first caught hold of him the man said, 'Let me go; I want to shoot myself. It's all right; I won't run away.'"
	Nisnun, the assailant, whom is a Jewish storekeeper on the Ferreira Deep Mine, had sued the New Rietfontein Company to recover wages pledged to him by the natives for money he had lent them. The Appeal Court at Bloemfontein decided against him, and Nisnun then started a store at Ferreira Deep. He gave credit to the natives and tried to collect debts himself from natives in the compound. He was stopped by the company, and, imagining himself wronged, determined to take revenge on Sir Lionel Phillips.
	Sir Percy Fitzpatrick gave the following account of the attack:-
	"I was driving down Commissioner-street in my motor-car going home to lunch, and my man Anderson was sitting beside me, when I heard a report which I thought was that of a burst tire on a passing motor-bicycle. Then there was a second report and I also heard something sing past in front of me which I knew was a shot. At that moment Anderson said to me:- "It's Sir Lionel Phillips they're shooting." We both jumped out of the car. We left it in the middle of the street and ran towards the man who was shooting. I saw him fire two shots, and when I got about three yards from him somebody had him up against a window near Beart's.
	"I saw Sir Lionel stagger and I caught him. Another gentleman was helping him, but I do not know who he was. Sir Lionel behaved perfectly splendidly. He said he was shot in the neck and the side and that he felt the pain in the neck first and was suffering a good deal of pain. He was perfectly cool, however, and said nothing about his assailant."
	A crowd collected immediately after the man began his attack, and he tried alternately to keep the people at bay and to fire at his victim. He was, however, seized by a man named Kelly and the driver of a passing taxicab named Ruff. As they closed with him he attempted to shoot himself, but the bullet went into the air and left him uninjured.
	In the meantime Sir Percy Fitzpatrick and others had placed Sir Lionel Phillips in the taxicab, and he was quickly driven to hospital, where it was found that two of the bullets had taken effect, one in the hip and the other in the neck. After a careful examination, however, the doctors announced that the condition of the patient was not serious, and he was soon resting quietly.
	Following his unsuccessful attempt at suicide, Sir Lionel's assailant remained perfectly cool, and said to those who had seized him, "All right, you need not knock me about." The attitude of the crowd, however, was very menacing, and Mr. Jordan, an assistant magistrate, who was nearby when the shooting occurred, took charge of matters and bundled the man into a cab, which was driven off to the police station.
	In conversation this evening Mr. Jordan said:- "The people behaved extraordinarily well when they saw who I was, and they made way for me to the inside of the crowd, where I found a policeman in charge of a little Jew, who was well known to me. The crowd were very angry, and I took him by the arm and assisted the policeman to get him away."
	At the police station he gave the name of John L. Nisnun, and described himself as a store-keeper on the Ferreira Mine, and of Russian nationality. He had in his possession a five-chambered revolver, four chambers of which had been discharged. One cartridge remained in the weapon, and two others were found in the man's pocket.
	At his subsequent trial, Misnun was sentenced to 15 years' imprisonment.
	The special remainder to the baronetcy of Pigot created in 1764
	From the London Gazette of 20 November 1764 (issue 10472, page 1):-
	The King has been pleased to grant unto George Pigot, Esq; late Governor of Fort St. George in the East Indies, and to the Heirs Male of his Body lawfully begotten; and, in Default of such Issue, to his Brother, Robert Pigot, Esq; Lieutenant-Colonel in His Majesty's Army, and the Heirs Male of his Body lawfully begotten; and, in Default of such Issue, then to his Brother Hugh Pigot, Esq; Captain in His Majesty's Royal Navy, and the Heirs Male of his Body lawfully begotten, the Dignity of a Baronet of the Kingdom of Great Britain. And the said George Pigot had this Day the Honour to kiss His Majesty's Hand upon the Occasion.'
	Sir Philip Harold Pilditch, 2nd baronet
	Sir Philip died after falling from a roof in December 1949. The following report on the subsequent inquest appeared in The Irish Times on 10 December 1949:-
	A verdict of accidental death was recorded at the inquest yesterday in London on Sir Philip Harold Pilditch (59), baronet, and partner of Pilditch, Chadwick and Co., architects and surveyors, who fell to his death from the roof of the firm's offices in Old Bond street, London, on Tuesday. Sir Philip fell about 60 feet into an enclosed bomb site from the four-storey building.
	Sir Philip John Frederick Pilditch, 3rd baronet
	Sir Philip was found shot dead in a wood at Crawley, Sussex in May 1954, a .22 rifle by his side. His car had been found empty in Crawley two days before. The interesting facet to this case was that, at the time of his death, Sir Philip's widow was pregnant. As a result, the succession to the baronetcy was held in abeyance until the birth of the child. If the child proved to be a boy, he would immediately inherit the baronetcy, but if a girl was born, the baronetcy would pass to the late baronet's brother. In the event, a girl was born, and the baronetcy passed to Richard Pilditch, brother of Sir Philip.
	Three other cases of a similar nature were that of John Buxton Pelham, 8th Earl of Chichester, Sir Anthony Frederick Mark Palmer, 4th baronet and Sir John Geoffrey James Briscoe, 6th baronet. Chichester and Palmer were killed in action during WWII and at the times of their respective deaths, their wives were pregnant. In both instances a son was eventually born, who inherited his respective title the moment he was born. Sir John Briscoe's father was killed in a motor crash in 1954, and when his son was born four months later, he immediately became a baronet.
