Sir Eardley Gideon Culling Eardley, 4th baronet |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In January 1868, this baronet was tried on a
charge of bigamy before the Central Criminal Court. |
|
|
|
The following report is taken from 'The Hull
Packet and East Riding Times" of 31 January 1868:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Sir Culling Eardley was placed at the bar of
the Central Criminal Court on Monday, to take his |
|
|
|
trial for feloniously intermarrying with Mary
Elizabeth Allen, at the district church of |
|
|
|
|
St.George's,
Hanover-square, his wife Emily Florence Magee, to whom he had previously
been |
|
|
|
married at New York, in the United States of
America, being alive. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'This case appeared to create considerable
interest on account of the position of the defendant |
|
|
|
and the circumstances connected with the
charge. Evidence was adduced to show that on the |
|
|
|
12th of December, 1859, the defendant, being
then Mr. Eardley, married Miss Emily Florence |
|
|
|
Magee
at New York, and continued to live with that lady for some time afterwards,
when a |
|
|
|
separation took place. In the first instance
Sir Culling Eardley, the father of the defendant, was |
|
|
|
ignorant of the fact of the marriage having
taken place, but when he became aware of the fact |
|
|
|
that his son had married a lady of position and
respectability, he at once acknowledged her as |
|
|
|
his daughter, and made a settlement of £1,500 a
year upon her. After the defendant came to |
|
|
|
the title by the death of his father, he
endeavoured to procure a reconciliation with his wife, |
|
|
|
but she refused to live with him again, and in
September 1867, he contracted a second |
|
|
|
|
marriage with a lady named Allen, at St.
George's Church, Hanover-square. The marriage was |
|
|
|
advertised in the Times, and the father of the defendant's first wife immediately
commenced |
|
|
|
the present prosecution. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Mr. De Tracy Gould, a member of the American
bar, practising in England, proved that the |
|
|
|
marriage in America was a perfectly legal
ceremony. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Evidence having been given of the second
marriage, Mr. M. Williams addressed the jury for |
|
|
|
the defendant. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The Recorder, in summing up the case to the
jury, said that he really did not see any real |
|
|
|
answer
to the charge, or any facts in the case that would justify them in coming to
the |
|
|

conclusion that the defendant had not committed
the offence imputed to him. |

'The jury, after a short deliberation, returned
a verdict of Guilty. |
|

'The Recorder, in passing sentence, said that
in the absence of any information as to the |

circumstances connected with the second
marriage, the Court must deal with the case as it |

stood. The defendant had deliberately committed
a very grave offence, and one that was |
|
|
|
calculated to do very serious injury to the
person who was a victim of it. There did not appear |
|
|
|
to be any extenuation for his conduct, and the
sentence he felt bound to pass upon him was |

that he be imprisoned and kept to hard labour
for eighteen months.' |

Sir John Eardley Eardley-Wilmot, 1st baronet |
|
|
|
|

|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
Sir John was Governor of Van Diemen's Land (now
Tasmania) between 1843 and 1846. The |
|
|
|
following story of his shabby treatment by the
British Government appeared in the Australian |
|
|
|
monthly magazine "Parade" in its
issue for November 1963:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On
January 26, 1847, Sir William Thomas Denison, newly-appointed Governor of Van
Diemen's |
|
|
|
Land, landed in Hobart from the barque
Windermere. Incoming governors were usually greeted |
|
|
|
by
the roar of cannon, but in Denison's case the artillery was dispensed with
out of |
|
|
|
|
consideration for his predecessor, Sir John
Eardley-Wilmot. Disgraced and dismissed, Eardley- |
|
|
|
Wilmot
lay dying in a small cottage owned by his secretary and, eight days later,
Denison |
|
|
|
attended the funeral of the tragic man he had
superseded. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Officially, Eardley-Wilmot's death at 64 was
due to "complete exhaustion of his frame and the |
|
|
|
decay of nature." But as he had been in
perfect health a few months before few Tasmanians |
|
|
|
believed this. His friends knew he simply
wanted to die. His career had been wrecked by the |
|
|
|
injustice
of a British politician, and his personal reputation had been sabotaged by
the |
|
|
|
|
envenomed pens of anonymous accusers. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'One of the most tragic figures in early
Australian history, Sir John Eardley-Wilmot was born in |
|
|
|
England on February 21, 1783, and educated at
Harrow for a law career. After practising at |
|
|
|
the
bar for some years he inherited the family estates and entered the House of
Commons as |
|
|
|
a
member of Warwickshire [North]. One of his weaknesses was his unusually
genial |
|
|
|
|
temperament. Often he carried this to extremes
when he sat on the bench as chairman of the |
|
|
|
Warwickshire Quarter Sessions and exchanged
pleasantries with the accused. While the habit |
|
|
|
gained him the sobriquet of the "joking
justice," his ill-timed humour was not highly regarded in |
|
|
|
judicial
circles. Many dignified eyebrows were raised in 1843 when Lord Stanley,
Colonial |
|
|
|
|
Secretary
in Sir Robert Peel's government, appointed the jovial humanitarian Governor
of Van |
|
|
|
Diemen's
Land. The newspapers published some acid comments on what they considered
an |
|
|
|
unsuitable
appointment. Their strictures, hastily reprinted in Hobart, did the new
governor much |
|
|
|
harm. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Van Diemen's Land at that time had such a
sinister reputation in Britain that when several |
|
|
|
reputable visitors from the colony put up at a
London hotel the proprietor begged them not to |
|
|
|
reveal where they had come from, lest the other
guests leave. Moreover the ratio of convicts |
|
|
|
to free settlers was increasing rapidly. Since
transportation to New South Wales had ceased, |
|
|
|
felons of all kinds were being poured into the
island. Alarmed at being swamped by prisoners, |
|
|
|
and indignant at having to foot the bill for
policing this horde, the colonists protested bitterly. |
|
|
|
Between 1841 and Eardley-Wilmot's arrival in
1843 some 12,000 free colonists left the island, |
|
|
|
thus
throwing an additional burden on those who remained. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'To
make matters worse a new system had been evolved in London. In earlier days,
most |
|
|
|
convicts were assigned as servants to settlers
in various parts of the colony. This at least |
|
|
|
distributed them widely. But under the new
scheme new arrivals were herded in "probation |
|
|
|
gangs," where they were set to hard
labour. Having endured six months of this without giving |
|
|
|
any trouble, they became
"pass-holders," and were allowed to work for wages, part of their |
|
|
|
earnings being deferred. From pass-holders they
graduated to the ranks of the ticket-of-leave |
|
|
|
men, and were finally granted conditional
pardons under which they were free men provided |
|
|
|
they remained in Van Diemen's Land. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'To those who held control in London the system
appeared ideal. In practice it broke down in |
|
|
|
the 1840s, when a depression hit the Australian
colonies. As the returns from agriculture fell |
|
|
|
below the cost of production, there was no work
for the army of pass-holders. Herded in hiring |
|
|
|
depots waiting for work, they had to be kept at
the public expense. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'When
Eardley-Wilmot took over there were nearly 2,000 escaped convicts at large
and the |
|
|
|
colonists were expected to foot the bill to
recapturing them. To clean up this situation proved |
|
|
|
an impossible task for an English country
gentleman with a sense of humour and some vague |
|
|
|
theories on penal reform. Already prejudiced by
adverse press comments in London, Eardley- |
|
|
|
Wilmot
aroused further ire in Hobart when it was found that he had left his wife and
family |
|
|
|
behind in Warwickshire. Some of the local
socialites construed this into an affront to Hobart |
|
|
|
society. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The
new governor fell foul of the judiciary for his clemency to the bushranger
Kavanagh, a |
|
|
|
violent ruffian who had already escaped the
gallows several times. Sentenced to death for |
|
|
|
robbery and attempted murder, Kavanagh was
reprieved by the Governor within 10 minutes of |
|
|
|
being sentenced to death. This act of mercy not
only offended the judge who had sentenced |
|
|
|
Kavanagh, but angered farmers who were the
chief targets of bushrangers. In any case, it |
|
|
|
merely postponed Kavanagh's end. He was hanged
at Norfolk Island in 1846. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The well-meaning Eardley-Wilmot soon found his
position hopeless. When he applied to Britain |
|
|
|
for financial aid to help pay the
ever-increasing costs of police and gaols he was ignored. But |
|
|
|
when he floated a public loan of £70,000 he was
harshly censured for extravagance and ordered |
|
|
|
to tax the settlers. Meanwhile, William Ewart
Gladstone, later celebrated as the "Grand Old Man" |
|
|
|
of
British politics, had taken over the Colonial Office. Pigeon-holing
Eardley-Wilmot's requests |
|
|
|
for money, Gladstone called for reports on the
moral standards of the convict population. Most |
|
|
|
contemporary accounts agree that their
standards could scarcely have been lower, but there |
|
|
|
was nothing the harassed governor could do
about it. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'In
1845 he called the Legislative Council together to consider some way of
raising money. This |
|
|
|
body, whose members were all appointed by the
Governor himself, consisted of six government |
|
|
|
officials and eight private citizens. The
official party was prepared to endorse whatever Sir John |
|
|
|
suggested.
But the private members were in a recalcitrant mood. One of them suggested
that |
|
|
|
the best way to obtain funds was to tax dogs
and billiard tables. As there were only 10 billiard |
|
|
|
tables in the colony, Eardley-Wilmot, whose
sense of humour was fast waning, declared the |
|
|
|
proposal facetious. His own suggestion was to
treble the customs duties. After a long and fierce |
|
|
|
argument
this was passed on the Governor's casting vote. But when he brought in a Bill
to |
|
|
|
establish toll gates on the roads the
unofficial members rebelled. Declaring
that they vote for |
|
|
|
no
more taxes until the British Government paid the expenses of maintaining the
convicts it |
|
|
|
sent,
six private members refused to attend any more council meetings. This meant
that Sir |
|
|
|
John
could no longer get a quorum and the patriotic six, as they were called,
became the |
|
|
|
heroes of the island. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'By
now Eardley-Wilmot regretted ever having heard of Van Diemen's Land. Caught
between the |
|
|
|
colonists
and the Colonial Office, he could make no impression on either. His reports
on the |
|
|
|
condition of the convicts under the hated
probation system were ignored in London. So, too, |
|
|
|
was
his plea on behalf of a political offender named Zephania Williams, who had
been exiled for |
|
|
|
life
for participating in the Chartist movement. Williams, a harmless
working-class leader whose |
|
|
|
conduct
on the island had been exemplary, rushed into a burning mental hospital and
rescued a |
|
|
|
number
of inmates at the risk of his life. Eardley-Wilmot brought his heroism to the
notice of |
|
|
|
Gladstone but his dispatch was not even
acknowledged. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Sir John's next attempt to raise funds was by
special taxes on auctioneers, pawnbrokers, |
|
|
|
publicans, butchers, restaurant keepers and
even cabmen. This gave the wits of Hobart an |
|
|
|
opportunity. The town was placarded with
punning posters calling on butchers to show their |
|
|
|
pluck and hotelkeepers their spirit, while
cabmen were exhorted to take a stand against the |
|
|
|
unjust imposts. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'By now the colonists were on the point of
revolt and Eardley-Wilmot was at the end of his |
|
|
|
resources. No longer the "joking
justice," he battled on, weighed down with work and worry and |
|
|
|
entirely without support from the government
which had sent him there. Gladstone, however, |
|
|
|
had already prepared the final blow. On October
13, 1846, Eardley-Wilmot received a dispatch |
|
|
|
from
the Colonial Office giving him immediate notice to resign. In the official
notification |
|
|
|
|
Gladstone accused him of "failure to give
due attention to the pressing exigencies of convict |
|
|
|
discipline and to impress a moral and reforming
character on the convict system." But it was the |
|
|
|
accompanying private letter which stunned the
Governor. In this letter Gladstone told him he |
|
|
|
could expect no more appointments under the
Crown as his immorality had become notorious in |
|
|
|
Van Diemen's Land. Gladstone added that he had
been informed that Sir John's regime |
|
|
|
|
Government House had become a place shunned by
the respectable ladies of Hobart. That this |
|
|
|
was no ordinary case was shown by the immediate
arrival of C.J. Latrobe, superintendent of |
|
|
|
Port Phillip, who had received urgent orders to
assume the administration of the colony until |
|
|
|
Sir William Denison arrived. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Instead of returning to England immediately,
the bewildered Eardley-Wilmot stayed on in Hobart |
|
|
|
to try to vindicate his character. But when he
attempted to find out who had maligned him, he |
|
|
|
came up against a blank wall. Many locals came
forward to defend the slandered Governor. The |
|
|
|
Chief
Justice, Sir John Pedder, declared that Gladstone's charges were entirely
false. He added |
|
|
|
that his wife and the wives of his friends were
frequent visitors at Government House. Even |
|
|
|
though some of them had not been on good terms
with Eardley-Wilmot, 300 prominent |
|
|
|
|
Tasmanians signed a memorial protesting against
the way he had been treated. Eardley-Wilmot |
|
|
|
asked to be given the privilege accorded the
meanest criminal and allowed to face his accusers |
|
|
|
in a court of law. The home government made no
reply. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Finally, his health completely shattered,
Eardley-Wilmot found refuge in a small cottage owned |
|
|
|
by
his former private secretary. There he died on February 3, 1847, eight days
after his |
|
|
|
|
successor was sworn
in. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'In
June 1847 the [former] Prime Minister, Sir Robert Peel, blandly assured the
House of |
|
|
|
|
Commons
that the allegations against Sir John Eardley-Wilmot were totally and
entirely |
|
|
|
|
erroneous.
Sir Robert did not inform the House who had made the false charges, although
many |
|
|
|
rumours were current in Van Diemen's Land. Nor
did Peel mention the £12,000 due to Eardley- |
|
|
|
Wilmot's heirs as the balance of his salary for
the remaining years of his six-year term. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Sir John Eardley-Wilmot lies in St. David's
Church, Hobart, under a monument erected by public |
|
|
|
subscription. Gladstone survived another 50
years, to have four terms as Prime Minister and |
|
|
|
become
one of the greatest figures of Victorian Britain. By then he had long lived
down what |
|
|
|
his biographer, John Morley, dismissed as a
"trivial episode." |

Sir Henry Frederick Echlin, 8th baronet |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following article on Sir Henry Echlin
appeared in the New Zealand 'Feilding Star,' reprinted |
|
|
|
from the 'London Express,' on 6 February 1907:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Sir Henry Echlin, Bart., licensed to sell
beer, wines, and spirits, to be consumed on or off the |
|
|
|
premises. Dealer in tobacco." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'This legend, in brand new paint, will be
written prominently over the door of the Rose and |
|
|
|
Crown Inn, a small wayside hostelry half a mile
out of the little Buckinghamshire township of |
|
|
|
Wooburn Green, by the end of the present week. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The proprietor of the Rose and Crown, who was
serving out pewters of mild ale and screws |
|
|
|
of shag to rustic customers for about fourteen
years past, succeeded to the ancient baronetcy |
|
|
|
of the Echlins on the death of his elder
brother Thomas, the seventh baronet, a fortnight ago. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Sir
Henry first heard a rumour of the honour thus thrust upon him during last
week. On |
|
|
|
|
Saturday
evening when the farm labourers and paper-mill hands of Wooburn opened the
local |
|
|
|
newspapers
in the Working Men's Club they read of the sudden exaltation of their host at
the |
|
|
|
Rose and Crown. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'It dawned upon them slowly that they had
"quality" in their midst. The club was almost |
|
|
|
|
deserted that night. The members strolled down
to the inn with newspapers in their |
|
|
|
|
hands, and found that Sir Henry had already
heard of his new dignity from the same source. So |
|
|
|
they crowded on the window-seat and the old
settle in the little bar and gazed and drank and |
|
|
|
talked, putting unctuous deference into the
order "Another 'arf-pint, Sir 'Enery." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'When I walked out to the Rose and Crown to-day
I arrived at the same moment that the first |
|
|
|
official
intimation of his succession to the baronetcy reached the proprietor.
Sergeant King, of |
|
|
|
the Wooburn police, bore it in the shape of a
letter from the head office of the Royal Irish |
|
|
|
Constabulary, in which service Sir Henry's
brother, Sir Thomas, had been since 1860. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Sir Henry Echlin had last heard of his brother
fourteen years before. That was in the present |
|
|
|
baronet's first year as a publican. He was then
proprietor of the Red Lion, at High Wycombe. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'In a chat with me Sir Henry, who is a finely
built man of nearly sixty years, standing over six |
|
|
|
feet in his stockings, straight as a die, with
black hair, clean-shaven chin, and iron-grey |
|
|
|
|
moustache, gave a remarkable account of his
life history. [He] had been employed in the |
|
|
|
|
following varied capacities:- Footman: three or
four years. Royal Irish Constabulary: Four years. |
|
|
|
2nd
Life Guards: About a month. Liverpool Police: Six weeks. 2nd Life Guards:
Twenty-one |
|
|
|
years. Commissionaire: Twelve months. Prison
warder: About four months. Private lunatic |
|
|
|
|
attendant: Three years. Publican: About
fourteen years. |
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"My father was poor, but a
gentleman," he said. "When I was about seven years old I left home |
|
|
|
to live with my uncle, and went to the village
school until I was fourteen or fifteen. Then I |
|
|
|
entered
the service of Sir Gerald Aylmer, Bart., at Donadea Castle, C. Kildare, as a
footman, |
|
|
|
and remained with him for about four years. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"After that I served in the Royal Irish
Constabulary for four years, and then left to join the 2nd |
|
|
|
Life
Guards. But I only served a month with the Guards then. The yarns of the old
soldiers put |
|
|
|
me
off the Army altogether. I was only a young fellow; but all that these old
hands told me |
|
|
|
made me feel that the regiment was not up to
concert pitch, so I deserted. I was a fool to |
|
|
|
desert, as I was really getting on well. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"'As
a deserter I joined the Liverpool police. That was about 1865. I used to see
my name in |
|
|
|
the
''Police Gazette' every morning as a deserter, and I had many a good laugh at
it, for they |
|
|
|
spelt it ''Ashlin,' and that was why I was
never found out. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I left the Liverpool Police after six weeks,
one reason being that the helmets they wore in those |
|
|
|
days
were too heavy. They made my head ache. I tried to join the Preston police,
but they |
|
|
|
were
full up; so, after wandering miserably about for some weeks with nothing to
do, I gave |
|
|
|
myself up as a deserter. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"I
was sent back to London for punishment; but I was only in the guardroom one
day, when I |
|
|
|
was
released by the Duke of Cambridge's orders. He was a real soldier's friend,
and we all loved |
|
|
|
him.
He let me go on the plea that I was only a youngster, that I did not take
away any |
|
|
|
|
accoutrements or equipment, and that my
previous character was very good. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"So I was reinstated, and served in the
2nd Life Guards for twenty-one years, finally leaving the |
|
|
|
regiment a non-commissioned officer. I never
saw any foreign service, but I was often one of |
|
|
|
Queen Victoria's bodyguard, and rode with her
Majesty to the opening of Blackfriars Bridge and |
|
|
|
the stonelaying of St. Thomas' Hospital. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"After
that I served in the Corps of Commissionaires for a year, and then as a
warder at |
|
|
|
|
Wandsworth
Prison for a few months. In my next employment, as private attendant to
an |
|
|
|
insane gentleman at Kingston-on-Thames, I had
some really exciting experiences. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"My
charge stood six feet high and weighed eighteen stone nine pounds, and was
subject to |
|
|
|
periodical
attacks of violent insanity. Two days before the full moon I had to look out
for |
|
|
|
squalls.
I used to see his neck swell and grow as red as a turkey cock's, and lively
times |
|
|
|
|
followed, for he was a tough handful to overpower. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"I remained with him for three years, and
on the whole we got on very well, for we were both |
|
|
|
Army men." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

'Sir Henry Echlin's subsequent career has been
spent behind the bars of country inns, he having |
|
|
|
successively owned the following public
houses:- Wheelwright's Arms, Marlow; Rupert Arms, |
|
|
|
Reading; Criterion, Windsor; Red Lion, Wycombe;
Rose and Crown, Wooburn Green. |
|
|
|
|
|
|

'At Reading Sir Henry married, and his one
child, a daughter, is now a pupil teacher at Wooburn |

summers. Her name, Margaret Daisy, figures on five |

|
|
|
'Lady
Echlin was serving beer and tobacco in the bar while her husband talked with
me, and |
|
|
|
was
in no way abashed at the words, "Your ladyship," now punctiliously
added by every |
|
|
|
|
customer at the Rose and Crown who has heard
the news. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'In
reply to the question whether he would now remove from the Rose and Crown,
Sir Henry |
|
|
|
said:
"Funds will not let me live elsewhere. I am doing a fair wayside trade,
and am under a |
|
|
|
very
good brewer. I have already given the order for a new signboard with my title
on it and I |
|
|
|
suppose I shall keep here. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"There is property in Dublin, I believe,
belonging to my family; but money will be required to get |
|
|
|
it, and I have no money. I am going to write to
the Dublin office of the Royal Irish Constabulary |
|
|
|
at once to learn more about my brother. I have
a sister in Canada, and a younger brother who |
|
|
|
is a stationmaster on an Irish railway. We are
all poor now. It was the baronets who have gone |
|
|
|
before who squandered all our estates." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Sir
Henry is a non-smoker, and, as he put it yesterday, his "strongest drink
is mild beer." He did |
|
|
|
not know whether he was the seventh or eighth
baronet until I informed him. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The Echlin baronetcy was created in 1721. The
family is of ancient Scottish origin, and formerly |
|
|
|
possessed vast estates both in Scotland and
Ireland. One Echlin was Constable and Deputy |
|
|
|
Governor of Edinburgh Castle during the siege
of 1572; another - Bishop of Down and Connor - |
|
|
|
was murdered in 1635, and Sir Henry Echlin, the
first baronet, was a Baron of the Court of |
|
|
|
Exchequer in Ireland. The second baronet sat as
M.P. for Newry. The third, fourth, fifth and |
|
|
|
sixth baronets successively dissipated the
family possessions. |

'The elaborate coat-of-arms of the Echlins
includes a device of a hound in full chase after a |

stag, and the family motto is, "Non sine
praeda" (not without prey).' |

Sir Henry Edwards, 1st baronet [UK 1866] |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Following an incident between two of his
servants, Sir Henry found himself in court charged |
|
|
|
with assaulting his butler. The report beneath
of this case appeared in the 'Glasgow Herald' |
|
|
|
of 18 January 1870:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'At the West Riding Court, Halifax, on
Saturday, two charges of assault were heard by the |
|
|
|
magistrates. The first charge was that of Henry
Hill Hobson, second footman in the service of |
|
|
|
Sir H. Edwards, of Pye Nest, near Halifax,
against George Lovett, butler to Sir Henry, for an |
|
|
|
assault at Pye Nest on the 6th inst.; the other
being brought by the butler against Sir Henry |
|
|
|
for an assault said to have occurred at the
same place on the 7th of January. According to |
|
|
|
priority in taking out the summons, the charge
against the butler was first heard. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Complainant said that on the day named, whilst
in the pantry about two o'clock in the |
|
|
|
|
afternoon, the butler went in and asked what he
had been saying about him. Complainant |
|
|
|
replied that he did not know what he meant,
upon which the butler said he did know, and began |
|
|
|
to use coarse and abusive language, ordering
him out of the pantry. Complainant refused to go, |
|
|
|
upon which the butler took off his coat, threw
it upon the floor, and after using more abusive |
|
|
|
language, seized complainant by one of his
whiskers with one hand, and by the ear with the |
|
|
|
other, but did not succeed in pulling him out.
The butler then went out, but returned soon |
|
|
|
afterwards, and continued to use abusive and
coarse language. Complainant then said to the |
|
|
|
butler
that once before he had intended to give notice to Lady Edwards to leave on
account of |
|
|
|
his conduct, and this time he should do so.
Defendant replied that he had better do so, and |
|
|
|
again repeated his improper language, adding
that complainant was of no use there. Defendant |
|
|
|
again pulled off his coat, and tried to put the
footman out, but did not succeed. Defendant had |
|
|
|
previously used similar offensive language to
him and others in the house. When Lady Edwards |
|
|
|
returned home about half-past three o'clock the
same afternoon, complainant gave her notice, |
|
|
|
and on her Ladyship wishing to know the reason
he told her of defendant's conduct. In |
|
|
|
|
consequence of this, on the following morning,
the butler, the complainant, and the other |
|
|
|
footman were called before Sir Henry, and
complainant gave a full explanation. A kitchen-maid, |
|
|
|
named Jemima Smith, was called to prove the
charge, her attention having been drawn to the |
|
|
|
pantry by hearing a noise, and she saw the
butler have hold of the footman's ear and whisker. |
|
|
|
At the same time he was using foul language to
the footman. The butler's defence was that |
|
|
|
he had frequently had to complain of the
neglect of complainant, who on the day named was |
|
|
|
insolent, and he ordered him out of the pantry.
As the footman refused to go, he got hold of |
|
|
|
him to put him out, but not by the ear and
whisker, but only by the coat. They struggled with |
|
|
|
each other, the question being who should be
put out of the pantry, but no blows were struck |
|
|
|
by defendant. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Before deciding upon this case, the bench
decided to hear that against Sir Henry. The butler |
|
|
|
said he had been in the service of Sir Henry
for two months and seventeen days. On Friday |
|
|
|
the 7th instant, in consequence of a message
brought to him, he went into the entrance hall, |
|
|
|
where he saw Sir Henry, who, in warm terms,
demanded to know the meaning of his conduct. |
|
|
|
In reply to this, the butler said he
"demanded" to know what conduct he alluded to. Sir Henry |
|
|
|
said it was using abusive language, taking off
his coat, and threatening to fight. Complainant |
|
|
|
said he had had frequent cause of complaint
against Hobson for insubordination, and that he |
|
|
|
might have used language which he should have
been glad not to have been called to use, |
|
|
|
but he had made no effort to strike Hobson, and
that all the morning he had been complaining |
|
|
|
of Hobson's inattention to work. At this Sir
Henry made some derisive remark, and then charged |
|
|
|
him with having insulted his son Churchill,
which witness denied. Sir Henry said, "You have; a |
|
|
|
gentleman told me so, and if I had heard it I
would have kicked you out of the house." To this |
|
|
|
complainant replied, "I am surprised you
should use language as violent as mine, of which you |
|
|
|
have complained." Previous to this Sir
Henry had told him that he must leave his service that |
|
|
|
day three months; to which complainant replied
that it would be very agreeable to him. Sir |
|
|
|
Henry then told him he must leave that day, and
ordered the men to "chuck" him out of the |
|
|
|
house. Complainant was asked if the men did so,
and he replied, "I rather fancy not; the men |
|
|
|
did not attempt to do so." Sir Henry then
went towards him, and, without any intimation, |
|
|
|
|
struck him violently on the left cheek.
Complainant was not much intimidated by this, and |
|
|
|
was retreating gently, when Sir Henry followed
up and said, "If you don't be off I will give you |
|
|
|
another." Complainant told him he would
hear of that another day, and then (he said) "I turned |
|
|
|
round to leave the room, but he followed me,
and, like a coward, he pushed me. I say it was |
|
|
|
cowardly." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Henry Hill Hobson, the footman, was called,
and said that what Sir Henry said to complainant |
|
|
|
was, "You mean to say that you did not
pull off your coat and want to fight?" to which |
|
|
|
|
complainant replied, "I may have done so
through excitement." Witness also said that when |
|
|
|
complainant was ordered out of the hall he
refused to go, and said it was not gentlemanly of |
|
|
|
Sir Henry to order him out. He said several
times he should not go. Sir Henry then called upon |
|
|
|
them to put the butler out and to fetch a policeman. The butler then
put himself up to Sir |
|
|
|
Henry, who in pushing him away caught his ear.
Sir Henry pushed the butler past witness, and |
|
|
|
out of the door, but witness did not see Sir
Henry kick the butler. The other footman, Alfred |
|
|
|
Micklethwaite, corroborated this evidence. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Mr. Jubb, for the defence, said that if
complainant had acted to Sir Henry as his own evidence |
|
|
|
proved, he was justified, not only in
discharging him, but in kicking him out of the hall, and any |
|
|
|
master would have done the same. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The Magistrates having consulted together, Mr.
John Waterhouse (the chairman) said the |
|
|
|
Bench were unanimously decided as to the merits
of the two cases; and with regard to the |
|
|
|
one against the butler they were quite of
opinion that the charge was proved, and he would |
|
|
|
have
£1 6s 6d penalty and costs to pay. With regard to the charge against Sir H.
Edwards, |
|
|
|
their unanimous opinion was there was not the
shadow of ground to establish it, and they |
|
|
|
therefore dismissed the case. (Hisses.) All
servants should remember that when they are |
|
|
|
|
ordered to leave their master's house and did
not do so at once they became trespassers. In |
|
|
|
this case the servant was frequently requested
to leave, but instead of doing so he insulted |
|
|
|
his employer, and got what he deserved.' |

Sir Alexander Logie Elphinstone, 10th baronet |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In
November 1927, Elphinstone's claim to the baronetcy, which had been dormant
since 1743, |
|
|
|
was heard and decided in his favour. The
following report appeared in 'The Scotsman' on |
|
|
|
|
1 December 1927:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'A genealogical tangle came up for unravelling
before the Baronetcy Committee of the Privy |
|
|
|
Council at London yesterday, when a claim to a
Scottish title, dating back to December 1701, |
|
|
|
in the time of King William III, and which has
lain in abeyance [sic] since 1743, was made by a |
|
|
|
military officer. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The claimant is Alexander Elphinstone of
Glack, a Major in the Reserve of Officers, living at 40 |
|
|
|
Kildare Terrace, London, and he claimed to be
heir of the baronetcy of the Order of Scotland |
|
|
|
and of Nova Scotia, which was conferred upon
Mr. James Elphinstone of Logie, because, it was |
|
|
|
stated,
of his contributions to the development of Nova Scotia, where he held a grant
of |
|
|
|
16,000 acres. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Lord Dunedin was the chairman of the
Committee, and the other members were Lord Shaw of |
|
|
|
Dunfermline, Lord Fitzalan and Sir Herbert
Maxwell. As the letters patent under the Great Seal |
|
|
|
creating the baronetcy were not in the
possession of the petitioner, and as he was not aware |
|
|
|
whether it was in existence, he was given
permission to search in the Great Seal Register, and |
|
|
|
some quaint entries were disclosed. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'There was an item of £118 4s 8d stated to have
been paid for the funeral expenses of an |
|
|
|
ancestor, Robert Elphinstone, on two days in
September 1704, which drew from Lord Shaw the |
|
|
|
remark that "it seems to take two days to
perform the burial function." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Mr. Hugh McMillan, for the petitioner, said
that during the early development of Nova Scotia |
|
|
|
each
Baronet on being exalted was asked to contribute 3000 marks towards the
development |
|
|
|
of the colony, and was given 16,000 acres of land. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Tracing the pedigree of the petitioner,
counsel said Sir John Elphinstone, the fourth Baronet, |
|
|
|
died in 1743, unmarried, and then the whole
heirs male became extinct, as well as the heirs of |
|
|
|
the patentee's father, William Elphinstone, of
Ressiviot. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The Baronetcy then devolved on Sir John's
third cousin, John Elphinstone of Glack. This John |
|
|
|
Elphinstone
married Jean Achyndachy. He was the grandfather in the male line of John |
|
|
|
|
Elphinstone of Glack, who was a member of the
Council of Bombay, under the Honourable East |
|
|
|
India Co., and was the great-grandfather in the
male line of the petitioner. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Major Alexander Elphinstone, said counsel, was
thus the nearest heir male collateral and male |
|
|
|
representative of the patentee. So far as the
petitioner was aware the dignity had not been |
|
|
|
assumed since the death of Sir John
Elphinstone, the fourth holder. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'After a short deliberation, Lord Dunedin said
- The Committee has decided to recommend the |
|
|
|
claim.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately, in March 1933, Sir Alexander
found himself in court to be sentenced after being |
|
|
|
found guilty on criminal charges, as related in
an article in 'The Times of India' on 9 March |
|
|
|
1933:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The trial was concluded before Judge Whiteley,
K.C., at the Central Criminal Court of Alfred |
|
|
|
Laurens, 70, manager, and Sir Logie
Elphinstone, Bt., 52, charged with conspiring to defraud |
|
|
|
such persons as might be induced to invest or
purchase shares in the National Match Company, |
|
|
|
and concurring in publishing a statement which
they knew to be false. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Laurens was found guilty on these charges and
with obtaining money by false pretences and |
|
|
|
and sentenced to three years' penal servitude. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Elphinstone
was found guilty of conspiring to defraud and not guilty on the other
charge. |
|
|
|
Sentence was postponed on him until next
sessions. The jury recommended him to clemency. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Divisional Detective-Inspector Young proved
six previous convictions against Laurens, one |
|
|
|
previous sentence being of three years' penal
servitude. His correct name was Alfred Baker. |
|
|
|
and he was known under other names, including
that of Baron de Lussan. Altogether he had |
|
|
|
obtained £5,841 in connexion with the National
Match Company and a subsidiary company, of |
|
|
|
which £350 was repaid. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The witness stated that several investors who
called at Laurens's offices in Abbey House, |
|
|
|
Westminster, were unable to obtain an
interview, as he had a room at the offices known as |
|
|
|
the "bunk-hole" to which he retired. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Elphinstone was born in America and came to
this country when he was four years old. He |
|
|
|
joined the Army in 1899 and served in the South
African War. During the Great War he had |
|
|
|
the rank of major. He established his claim to
the baronetcy in November, 1927. It was a very |
|
|
|
old title dating back to 1435 [sic]. He had
twice been convicted in America for larceny and at |
|
|
|
the London Sessions in 1910 for obtaining
credit as an undischarged bankrupt. He had been |
|
|
|
associated with a number of companies which had
been wound up. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Judge Whiteley, passing sentence on Laurens,
said the evidence showed that he was an |
|
|
|
|
extremely clever man and very dominating. He
was a dangerous criminal. Elphinstone must feel |
|
|
|
it a disgraceful thing for a man of his
opportunities, education, and position to find himself in |
|
|
|
the dock of the Central Criminal Court with a
man convicted six times. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Elphinstone - I knew nothing about it, I swear. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Judge Whiteley said he had lent his name and
he had had opportunity of getting out of the |
|
|
|
company.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Elphinstone was subsequently bound over for two
years, the Judge saying that if there was |
|
|
|
any suggestion that Elphinstone was entering
into City affairs or making himself a party to |
|
|
|
obtaining
money from the public, he would be brought to the Court and sentenced for
the |
|
|
|
present offence. The Army was, however, less
forgiving, since the 'London Gazette' of 2 |
|
|
|
|
June 1933 contained a paragraph in which it was
revealed that Elphinstone had been removed |
|
|
|
from the Army and stripped of his rank of Major. |

Sir William Erskine, 2nd baronet of Torrie,
Fife (created 1791) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Before his appointment as one of the Duke of
Wellington's senior commanders in the Peninsular |
|
|
|
War, Erskine had twice been confined in an
insane asylum. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After obtaining a commission in the cavalry,
Erskine served with the British army in Flanders. |
|
|
|
In 1794, he fought with the 15th Light Dragoons
at the Battle of Villers-en-Cauchies, where a |
|
|
|
handful of British and Austrian cavalry routed
a much larger French force. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After
representing Fifeshire in the House of Commons between 1796 and 1806, he
was |
|
|
|
|
promoted
to Major General and shipped to Portugal to assist Wellington. When
Wellington heard |
|
|
|
of
this, he complained that he 'generally understood him to be a madman.'
Wellington received |
|
|
|
the
far from reassuring reply that 'no doubt he is sometimes a little mad, but in
his lucid |
|
|
|
|
intervals he is an uncommonly clever fellow,
and I trust he will have no fit during the campaign, |
|
|
|
though
he looked a little wild as he embarked.' A further concern was Erskine's
eyesight, which |
|
|
|
was
particularly poor. Before the enemy could be engaged, he had to ask a
subordinate to |
|
|
|
point him in the right direction. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
During the 1811 campaign in Portugal, Erskine
took over the command of the Light Division. He |
|
|
|
soon developed a reputation for rashness.
Wellington wrote that 'it is impossible to trust to his |
|
|
|
judgment in any critical case.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At
Casal Novo on 14 March 1811, Erskine advanced his men along the main road, in
fog, and |
|
|
|
with no proper scouts. When the fog suddenly
cleared, he found himself facing infantry with |
|
|
|
artillery support and lost 155 killed and wounded. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At
the Battle of Sabugal on 3 April 1811, the fog and Erskine's incompetence
saved the |
|
|
|
|
opposing
French forces from destruction. Erskine was in command of both the cavalry
and the |
|
|
|
light
infantry. Each was marched off in the direction the other should have taken,
the cavalry |
|
|
|
promptly becoming lost in the fog and the
French were able to escape. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At the Siege of Almeida in May 1811, Erskine's
actions confounded Wellington's battle tactics, |
|
|
|
causing the Duke to protest that 'this was the
most disgraceful military event that has yet |
|
|
|
occurred to us.' The besieged French garrison
was allowed to escape because Erskine failed to |
|
|
|
guard the bridge of Barba de Puerca. Erskine
was dining with a colleague when Wellington's |
|
|
|
order to guard the bridge arrived. Told to send
some cavalry and a force of infantry, Erskine |
|
|
|
despatched a corporal and four privates. When a
fellow diner pointed out that this party would |
|
|
|
not
be insufficient, he decided to send a whole regiment. He wrote out the
necessary order |
|
|
|
and
then put the order in his pocket, forgetting all about it. When he was
undressing for bed |
|
|
|
that
night, he found the order and passed it on to a Colonel Bevan, who arrived at
the bridge |
|
|
|
too late; the French had already slipped away.
Wellington was furious - 'I have never been so |
|
|
|
distressed by any military event as by the
escape of even a man of them.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Aware
that he could not dismiss Erskine because of his political influence,
Wellington from then |
|
|
|
on placed Erskine in positions where he could
do minimal harm. Eventually, Erskine was declared |
|
|
|
insane and dismissed. He committed suicide in
Lisbon in 1813 by jumping out a window. His last |
|
|
|
words to bystanders were 'Why did I do that?' |

|
|
|
|
'Captain Thomas Esmonde, 18th Regiment, for
having (on the 18th and 20th June, 1855), after |
|
|
|
being engaged in the attack on the Redan,
repeatedly assisted, at great personal risk, under a |
|
|
|
heavy
fire of shell and grape, in rescuing wounded men from exposed positions, and
also, while |
|
|
|
in command of a covering party, two days after,
for having rushed, with the most prompt and |
|
|
|
daring
gallantry, to a spot where a fire-ball from the enemy had just been lodged,
which he |
|
|
|
effectively extinguished before it had betrayed
the position of the working party under his |
|
|
|
protection
- thus saving it from a murderous fire of shell and grape, which was
immediately |
|
|
|
opened upon the spot where the fire-ball had
fallen.' |

Walter
Terence Evans (18 Sep 1911-4 Apr 1932), son and heir of Sir Walter Harry
Evans, |
|
|
|
1st baronet [UK 1920] |

|

Walter Evans drowned in April 1932 when his
canoe sank in an Irish lake. The following report |
|
|
|
appeared in the 'Weekly Irish Times' of 16
April 1932:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The story of a man's attempt to fight for life
in the placid waters of Lake Bollager, one of the |
|
|
|
beauty spots in Connemara [in County Galway],
was told at an inquest on 6th April on the body |
|
|
|
of Mr. Walter Terence Evans (20), son of Sir
W.Evans, baronet, Wightwick Hall, Wolverhampton, |
|
|
|
who was drowned on Monday. The remains were
recovered after extensive dragging operations |
|
|
|
on the previous evening. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'John Anthony Tinne, Emlaughmore Lodge,
Clifden, said that Mr. Evans was on a holiday in |
|
|
|
Emlaughmore
since March 27, and intended returning home on Wednesday. Witness |
|
|
|
|
accompanied
him to Emlaughmore on Monday. Mr. Evans and witness went to Bollager
Lake, |
|
|
|
about
three miles from the lodge, and they crossed two lakes before coming to
Bollager. They |
|
|
|
were
in a small Canadian canoe, and their intention was to Lough Fada in order to
gather |
|
|
|
herons' eggs. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'When
they were in the middle of Lake Bollager, Mr. Evans mentioned to witness that
they |
|
|
|
appeared to be getting some water in the canoe,
and suggested that witness should move up |
|
|
|
further in the boat. Almost immediately after,
the deceased man said that the water was |
|
|
|
|
increasing in the boat. Witness said that they
should go towards an island about 150 yards |
|
|
|
away.
They paddled towards the island, and when about 75 yards away from it the
canoe |
|
|
|
seemed to sink in the stern, and witness said
to Mr. Evans: "jump out." Both did so and started |
|
|
|
to
swim towards the island, with the boat between them, each holding an end of
the boat. |
|
|
|
After swimming some distance, Mr. Evans
mentioned that he wanted to take off his shoes. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Witness held him while he tried to take them
off, and they both started swimming again and got |
|
|
|
to within thirty yards of the island. Mr. Evans
said that he could not hold out much longer. He |
|
|
|
appeared
to be quite calm. Witness was becoming exhausted by this time, and told Evans
that |
|
|
|
he would swim ashore and return undressed to
help him, and told him to tread water. In the |
|
|
|
meantime witness swam to the island and left
Evans, so far as he could remember, still holding |
|
|
|
on
to the canoe. Just as witness reached near the island and was able to find
ground to walk |
|
|
|
on
he heard the deceased man call in his ordinary voice: "Help me,
Tony." When witness got to |
|
|
|
land
he looked round and saw deceased man's head disappear under the water about
fifteen |
|
|
|
yards from the shore. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
canoe had drifted off, and witness believed that Mr. Evans left the canoe and
tried to |
|
|
|
follow
him, and when witness got to land he tried to take off his clothes, but was
unable to do |
|
|
|
so
owing to numbness. He was horrified for a minute or so. The deceased man did
not come |
|
|
|
over
the water after witness saw him sink. Witness returned to Emlaughmore looking
for help, |
|
|
|
as he could not do anything further. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Before
the accident Evans and witness were joking and paddling extra hard, each
pulling |
|
|
|
against
the other. It appeared that the result of this was that they shipped water.
There was |
|
|
|
a
pretty strong wind blowing, and when they turned to the breeze they must have
shipped |
|
|
|
more
water. The deceased man was about fourteen stone weight and was in the stern,
and |
|
|
|
this
may have helped towards the accident. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Dr.
P.J. Maguire, medical officer, Roundstone, said that the cause of death was
immersion in |
|
|
|
the
water. Sergeant Fox, Roundstone, said that when found the body was about
fifteen yards |
|
|
|
from the shore of the island. When the body was
taken from the water the left shoe was |
|
|
|
|
missing,
and the bootlace of the right shoe was loose. The water where Mr. Evans was
found |
|
|
|
was between fifteen and twenty feet deep. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'A verdict of "Death from
misadventure" was returned, and sympathy extended to the relatives.' |
