ANCIENT AND UNFORTUNATE.

Lord Mowbray, Segrave, and Stourton,
who Is claiming the Earldom OF Norfolk.
may fairly claim that his family In one
OF the most ancient and unfortunate to
he found IN the annals OF the Peerage,
says the Westminster Gazette. He is the
twenty-frst Baron Stourton the twenty
fourth Baron Mowbray. and the twenty
fifth Baron Segrave. The second Baron
Mowbrsy was executed at York in 1922
for rebellion against the Despencers
the seventh baron was executed for tptu=
ing in Scrope's rebellion against Henry
"; the twelfth baron was Duke of Nor
folk and fell at Bosworth: the fourteenth
baron's son was executed for quartering
the arms OF Edward the Confessor The
fifteenth baron was executed for high
treason I'm 1872 ana his only son was
executed for high treason In 1859.
But the most unfortunate was the
eighth Baron Stourton, who was hangea
in a silkcn halter for murder in 1857 His
tomb Is still pointed to IN Salisbury
cathedral as that OF the wicked Lord
Stourton," and for many years the silken
halter hung above it. The murder arose
out of quarrel with some yeomen over
forest rights In the forest OF Selwood
The yeomen. who bore the name OF Hart
gill. were persuaded TO come out of q
church in which they had taken refuge
They were carried away to Lord Stour-
tons house and there beaten almost to
death In his presence. Finally, their
throats were cut. lest a French priest
who lay near should hear them" Lord
Stourton, being Catholic, hoped TO es-
cape the penalty. At his trial he refused
To plead until lie was threatened with
the peine forte ct dure. and the only re-
mission he could get from his sentence
was that he should be hanged ct Sails
bury In a silken halter.
