			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 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, striaght 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. @nd 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 rel 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
			School. He is a very pretty girl of fourteen summers. Her name, Margaret Daisy, figures on five
			certificates for proficiency in religious knowledge hanging in the little bar parlour at the Rose
			and Crown.
			'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 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.'
