Alexander George Thynne, 7th Marquess of Bath |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The 7th Marquess is known as "The Loins of
Longleat' (the play on words deriving from Bath's |
|
|
|
advocacy of free love, involving 'wifelets', and
the wild animals in the grounds of his stately |
|
|
|
home). He inherited the title in 1992 on the death
of his father, a noted eccentric who had |
|
|
|
admired Hitler and who, with the assistance of
circus proprietor, Jimmy Chipperfield, had built |
|
|
|
Longleat's famous safari park. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After being educated at Eton and Oxford University
and completing national service in the Life |
|
|
|
Guards, Bath travelled extensively in South
America in a Jaguar and in the company of a |
|
|
|
|
Hungarian actress named Anna Gyarmathy (later to
achieve some success in French films |
|
|
|
|
under the name Anna Gael). In 1966 he gained some
notoriety by contracting what he called |
|
|
|
an 'anti-marriage' with a girl from Ceylon (now
Sri Lanka). However, the match was unsuccessful |
|
|
|
and she moved to Rome in 1968. In 1972, he married
Anna Gyamarthy in order to legitimize the |
|
|
|
son and heir, Ceawlin, to whom she was about to
give birth (Ceawlin is now known by the |
|
|
|
|
courtesy title Viscount Weymouth and will succeed
to the Marquessate on the death of his |
|
|
|
father). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
During this period, Bath was able to complete The Ages of History Mural, The Heaven and Hell |
|
|
|
Mural and the Kama Sutra Mural at
Longleat. In the February 1974 general election he stood |
|
|
|
as the candidate of the Wessex Regionalist Party
on a platform of Home Rule for the Wessex |
|
|

Miles Stapleton, 10th Lord Beaumont |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following (in places somewhat gruesome)
account of the death of the 10th Lord Beaumont |
|
|
|
is taken from the "Leeds Mercury" of 17
September 1895:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The tenantry on the Carlton Towers estate, near
Selby [in Yorkshire], have lost a kindly |
|
|
|
|
landlord by the lamentable shooting accident which
took place yesterday, almost within sight |
|
|
|
of the Towers. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Lord Beaumont, the tenth Peer of that name, and
the son of the eighth bearer of the title, |
|
|
|
succeeded to the Peerage within a comparatively
recent period. He was married about two |
|
|
|
years ago to the daughter of the late Sir Charles
Tempest, of Broughton Hall, Skipton, and the |
|
|
|
rejoicings on the estate were particularly
animated, because of the fact that for some years |
|
|
|
previously the Towers had been practically
untenanted, with the exception of a brief period |
|
|
|
during which the deceased Earl's [sic] immediate
predecessor, having married the daughter of |
|
|
|
Mr Wootton Isaacs, M.P., made the Towers his
residence. It was only last week that Lord |
|
|
|
|
Beauchamp took farewell of his old regiment, the
20th Hussars, on their embarkation at |
|
|
|
|
Portsmouth for India, he having previously
relinquished the post of Colonel. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'As to how the lamentable accident occurred one
can only rely on what may be inferred from |
|
|
|
the position in which his Lordship's body was
found. Our representative had an interview |
|
|
|
|
with a workman who was near the spot where the
accident took place, and from what he stated |
|
|
|
it appears that his Lordship yesterday morning saw
the head gamekeeper, and expressed to him |
|
|
|
his intention of going out partridge shooting, at
the same time requesting the man to provide |
|
|
|
him with a retriever dog. This done, Lord Beaumont
told the keeper that he should not require |
|
|
|
his services, and went out alone. He was not again
seen alive. About noon, Mr James Hensley, |
|
|
|
a local farmer, was walking past Carlton Grange,
some three-quarters of a mile away from the |
|
|
|
Towers, when his attention was attracted by a man
clinging to a gate. He went up to the gate, |
|
|
|
and was horrified to find that it was the body of
Lord Beaumont, and that life was quite extinct. |
|
|
|
The terrible nature of the injuries, which were
noticeable some yards away, made this beyond |
|
|
|
doubt. As he afterwards described it, the top of
the deceased's head was blown completely |
|
|
|
off, and one eye had also been cut away by the
shot. The position of the deceased and that |
|
|
|
of his gun made it easy to infer how the sad
occurrence came about. His Lordship's left foot |
|
|
|
was fixed in the angle between one of the bars and
the diagonal bar which runs from one corner |
|
|
|
to the other of the gate. It was clear that he had
been in the act of crossing into the |
|
|
|
|
adjoining turnip field when he met his death. He
had stepped onto the gate with his left foot, |
|
|
|
and had put his right foot over to the other side,
when he found his left inextricable, and had |
|
|
|
then, in order to free himself, drawn his right
foot back again. In doing so he had forgotten the |
|
|
|
dangerous position in which he had left his gun.
The gun, a double-barrelled one, with the |
|
|
|
|
trigger drawn, had been reared, muzzle upwards,
against the gate, and, thinking he was |
|
|
|
|
replacing his foot on one of the bars, he alighted
instead on the trigger. The contents of one |
|
|
|
of the barrels, a charge of small shot, were at
once discharged, and they lodged in his brain. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The dreadful character of the accident is evident
from the fact that portions of the brains |
|
|
|
|
were found at fifteen yards' distance from the
scene. Mr Hensley at once proceeded to the |
|
|
|
Towers for assistance, and it is one of the most
pathetic incidents in this tragic story that the |
|
|
|
faithful retriever, which had accompanied his
Lordship, refused to move from his master's side, |
|
|
|
moreover would not, until forcibly driven away,
allow any one to approach him. The body, |
|
|
|
|
remarkable to relate, was allowed to remain in the
position in which it was found for fully two |
|
|
|
hours, there being an indisposition on the part of
the men about to interfere until a policeman |
|
|
|
had arrived. Afterwards the body was conveyed to
the Towers.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At the subsequent inquest, the jury's verdict was
one of accidental death, in accordance with |
|
|
|
the medical evidence. |

Hastings William Sackville Russell, 12th Duke of
Bedford |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
During World War II, Bedford was accused of being
a Fascist. In 1939 he became Chairman of |
|
|
|
the British People's Party, the membership of
which was primarily made up of ex-members of Sir |
|
|
|
Oswald Mosley's British Union of Fascists. It is
said that Bedford was placed on the list of those |
|
|
|
to be interned in the event of a German invasion.
After the war, however, he seems to have |
|
|
|
done an about-face and converted to socialism. In
1952 the Duke spoke in the House of Lords in |
|
|
|
defence of Dr Hewlett Johnson (known as the 'Red
Dean' of Canterbury), who was an apologist |
|
|
|
for the Soviet Union. Bedford suggested to his
fellow peers that 'if every man in the country |
|
|
|
went to work for ten seconds a day he would
produce the country's total requirements'. |
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, the country could abolish money and
return to the barter system. Not surprisingly, |
|
|
|
neither suggestion was adopted. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Bedford was a respected naturalist and
ornithologist. He inherited these interests from his |
|
|
|
|
father, with whom he was on poor terms. The 11th
Duke became a recluse after World War I, |
|
|
|
where he devoted himself to the study of rare
animals and birds. Possibly due to his son's |
|
|
|
|
pacifism, the 11th Duke quarrelled with his son
and they did not speak, or communicate in any |
|
|
|
way, for 20 years. The 13th Duke did not know of
his grandfather's existence, or that he was |
|
|
|
the eventual heir to the dukedom, until he was 16,
when a servant accidentally let the |
|
|
|
|
information slip. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The 12th Duke developed a strain of homing
budgerigars and wrote a piece in Country Life on |
|
|
|
the subject, illustrated by a photograph of
himself surrounded by 3,000 birds. Birds eventually |
|
|
|
caused his death: he shot himself when aiming at a
hawk that was threatening one of his |
|
|
|
|
budgerigars. According to Nancy Mitford in her
book The English Aristocracy he also kept a |
|
|
|
pet spider to which he would regularly feed roast
beef and Yorkshire pudding. |
|
|
|

|
|

Dukes of Bedford in general, see "A Silver- |
|
|
|
Plated Spoon" by John, (13th) Duke of Bedford
(World Books, London 1959 and Doubleday, New |
|
|
|
York 1959). This book includes a photograph of the
12th Duke with the caption "This is my |
|
|
|
father, the twelfth Duke (1888-1953), the
loneliest man I ever knew, incapable of giving or |
|
|
|
receiving love, utterly self-centred and
opinionated. He loved birds, animals, peace, monetary |
|
|
|
reform, the Park, and religion. He also had a wife
and three children." |

Robert Rochfort, 1st Earl of Belvidere |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For the sake of simplicity, I have referred to
this peer as 'Belvidere' throughout, notwithstanding |
|
|
|
that his title was Baron Belfield between 1738 and
1751, and then Viscount Belfield between |
|
|
|
1751 and 1756. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After his first wife had died of smallpox,
Belvidere married Mary, the 16-year-old daughter of |
|
|
|
Viscount Molesworth. At first, Belvidere's rages
so frightened Mary that she escaped at night |
|
|
|
to her father's house, only to be sent back by her
father (by all accounts as big a brute as her |
|
|
|
husband) in the morning. She settled down
eventually and produced several children. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Around 1743, Belvidere, while visiting London, was
sent anonymously an exchange of love letters |
|
|
|
between his wife and his brother, Arthur Rochfort.
When confronted, Lady Belvidere admitted |
|
|
|
everything, including the fact Belvidere's
youngest son was in fact his nephew. Belvidere sought |
|
|
|
the advice of Lord Molesworth, who suggested that
his daughter be transported to the West |
|
|
|
Indies as a vagabond, but Belvidere's choice of
punishment proved to be even harsher - he |
|
|
|
imprisoned his wife in the family home for the
next 30 years. She was allowed servants, to whom |
|
|
|
she could give orders, but they were not allowed
to speak to her. She could walk in the grounds, |
|
|
|
preceded by a footman who rang a bell to keep
everyone away, but she was forbidden to leave |
|
|
|
the estate. After being confined for 12 years, she
managed to escape to her father's house in |
|
|
|
Dublin. Her father refused to admit her, and the
next day she was sent back to Belvidere's house |
|
|
|
to resume her imprisonment. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Her lover, Arthur Rochfort, having heard that
Belvidere had threatened to shoot him, escaped to |
|
|
|
Yorkshire and then to France. Returning to Ireland
15 years later, he assumed that his brother |
|
|
|
would ignore him, but Belvidere immediately had
him arrested and charged with £20,000 damages |
|
|
|
for criminal conversation. When Arthur couldn't
pay, Belvidere had him thrown into debtors' |
|
|
|
|
prison, where he died. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
While Mary remained imprisoned in the family home,
her husband was living in luxury at his new |
|
|
|
villa six miles away. Here he quarrelled with
another of his brothers, George, who had established |
|
|
|
his home within sight of Belvidere's villa. So
offended by this action was Belvidere that he |
|
|
|
|
decided to block out the view by building a sham
ruin between the two properties. At huge |
|
|
|
expense, he imported a number of Italian artists
to design and build a ruined abbey, complete |
|
|
|
with Gothic windows, to stand between his house
and his brother's. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When Belvidere died in 1774, Mary was at last
released from her captivity, but her mind was |
|
|
|
gone. She apparently took to wandering the house
and talking to portraits, as if they were real |
|
|
|
people, in a voice which had shrunk to a shrill
whisper. She died shortly after her release. |
