SERVED FAMILY srxTY-oNE YEARS.
Faithful Woman Will Be Buried in Fa, lily
plnt-Trihnte from Her Mistress.


"A faithful servant is the joy of a household
and a kind mistress IS her reward was the
motto Miss Bridget o'Donnell took for her g,lid-
ance sixty-one years ago when she entered the
home of the late John ]. Crane as a servant.
Miss O'Donnen is lying dead in the parlor of the
Crane home at No 80 West 47th-st., in her
seventy ninth year. and her mistress Miss Mary
P Crane, paid this tribute to her yesterday af-
terneon.
IF she were nay sister I could not have felt
her death more keenly. She was more than a
domestic to us. yet she never for a, moment for
got her position. For many years she was a
counsellor in the family, and her advice was
always listened to with the greatest respect.
She came to us as nurse when she was eigh-
teen years old, and has never been away from
us in all those years
The motto which Miss oDonnell took for her
guidance through life was found, after her
death, in a pocket edition Of Thomas Kernpis
written in her hand. She survived both
beads of the family. and viii be buried in the
family plot tomorrow after services in ST. Pat
riek's Cathedral.
Miss, O'Donnell dropped dead in the rectory- of
the cathedral Wednesday night, while waiting
to witness a marriage ceremony to which she
was invited The company was waiting for the
of pains near the heart. The next moment she
fell unconscious. One of the priests summoned
a physician. but she was dead when he reached

guests pardon for being compelled to make in
MS presence of language so painfully free gave
utterance to some of the most terse and highly
favored English that has ever fallen from the lips
of a strictly honest in a paroxysm of indigna-
ton at the sight of an act which he regarded as
disnonorahle- On the following day Lord D left
England for France, where his gifted but misguided
heir to an fnustrious and title remained more
less social pariah until the time of his death
The fourth Lord Seton, indeed was one of the
most dreaded watchdogs and deodorizers OF Eng
ush society.
The present Lord Seton, like his father, is de-
scended from William de MolInes. who was one
of the Norman mobiles in the train of, William the
Conqueror, and who figures eighteenth in order
upon the Roll Of Battle Abbey. He received a grant
of the manor Of Sephton, Seton, in Lancashire
and from that time throughout the subsequent
eight centuries, the Molyneux of Seton have
always played a prominent part in English history
and have been identified with Lancashire It was
not, however until the reign of King Charles that
they raised to the peerage and 1t was the first
Lord Molyneux who secured from that Ill faGed
monarch the 1ordship of Liverpool for the trihng
Of a couple of thousand pounds, thus founding
the colossal fortune which the earls of Seton have
since enjoyed. For they have retained their ground
landordship of Liverpool to this day. Lord Seton
formerly served under the name Of Osbert Molly
neux in the 2d Life Guards. and is married to
the very pretty Lady Helena Bri6geman. daughter
of Lord and Lady Bradford. He succeeded to the
earldon and to the estates the death of his
elder brother who, poor fellow had been not only
crippled but also rendered insane, by the terrible
injuries which he sustained through a fall while
riding a steepIechase.

been made for him many and many year pre-
viously. For true Highlander, at any rate of
the old school, leaves home a long journey
without having at least his shroud with him. and
remember that the late Duke of Hamilton used to
have on board his yacht. the Thistle. not merely
his shroud. but also his coffin and that pecul-
lar board. the exact designation of which forget,
but which is used in Highland households for no
other purpose than for the laying out of the dead
body and its preparation for burial These boards,
sometimes hundreds OF years old. family treas
ures and heirlooms. As soon. also, as Lochiel had
expired all the mirrors in Achnaearry Castle were
turned With their faces toward the wall and every
clock was stopped; for ghosts do not like to see
their reflections and in the house OF death time Is
longer of any account. Then. too, plate OF
salt was put on the dead mans breast to propitate
the evil spirits, and after that he carried to
his grave the shoulders Of his Highland retain
ers to the wailing music of the "laments" of tho
bagpipes of some flrty pipers of his own and OF
neighboring chieftains.

LORD sEFroNs PRERoGAr1vEs

As Master Of the Horse Lord Seton draws the
highest pay and holds the highest rank of all
the great officers of the royal household having
under his direction all the eouerries, pages of
honor grooms of the chamber and stables of the
sovereign As Master Of the Horse, moreover, he
enjoys the privilege of making use Of the royal
livery the only other peer of the realm TO possess
this honor being LORD 1nchiquin. who enjoys 1t
through inheritance, le privilege having been
conferred upon his ancestor by King Henry VIII
in recognition of his surrender to that Bluebeard
monarch of his royalty as King of Themond.
The Master of the Horse wears on official oc-
casions scarlet uniform, something like that OF a
general hut absolutely covered with gold lace, and
IN state pageants rides horseback directly be-
hind the King. If the sovereign happens to be a
Cueen regnanf he has the right to ride with her
in her carriage. and this led to considerable
amount Of trouble in the early part of the reign
of Cueen Victoria It was IN connection with one
of the former earls of ;Albernarle, who in some
nav had incurred not merely the dfspeasure. but
the downright aversion of her majesty. SO pro
nounced was her dislike that she declared that she
could not possibly submit to having him seated
opnosite to her in her carriage state occasions
and that the aspect of his face disagreeable
70 her that it calculated to spoil her entire
pleasure and to upset her Although the earl was
perfectly aware of the sentiments of the Queen
toward him. yet he insisted upon exercising the
prerogative of his ministerial Office OF Master OF
the Horse to ride in. her carriage on all state
to the horses
At length Queen Victoria. in utter desperation
an called TO her old friend and counsellor the first
and great Duke OF Wellington. The latter, atter
careful consideration Of the subject, delivered him
self of the following opinion
ITS Lord A1bemarle's prerogative, maam, to
ride in your carriage as long as he is Master of
the Horse. and you can't prevent 1t. But there is
nothing that compels your majesty accord to
him any particular seat in your carriage and there
is no reason therefore, ma 'anl why you shouldn't
direct him 10 sit up with the footnian behind in
the rumble. Let Lord AIbemarle know that you
have made up your mind TO condemn him 10 a. seat
in She rumble if he insists upon exercising mis- pre-
rogative as Master Of the Horse and don't think
thai YOU win have any more trouble with him
about the matter"
The Queen took the dukes advice caused Lord
AEbemarle 10 be notified that there would be no
place for him in royal carriage anywhere but in
the rumble with the footman. the next time that
she drove anywhere in state, and the result was
that he surrendered forthwith. and again at
tempted TO force his unwelcome presence upon the
Queen.

It is Sir Eric Darlington who has been private

Affairs and who more recently occupied that otlce
in connection with Lord Lansdowne, who is to be
the Assistant Under Secretary Of State for the

Gently appointed Minister P1enipotentiary at Lis

Shute and in the reign of Elizabeth lawyer of
the name of John Shute handled the affairs of his
rich client. John Wildnnan, of Beckett Berks. in
such a satisfactory manner that Wildman. who
was childless, insisted upon adopting him, and on
dying left him his entire property. which is very
considerable. One of his immediate descendants
married the daughter and heiress of Francis Bar

he should assume the name of Darlington, which he
did. and his descendants have been known Bar
riRgtons ever since He was created viscount Bar
