The garrison of Walmer consisted OF
a captain, lieutenant, two porters. ten

Less than a century later we read
of Walmer castle as much decayed and
threatened by the sea at high tides;
moreover, rain drives into the rooms

with loose stones hanging over" and
so forth. 1t was presumably patched
up. During the Civil war the castles
changed hands more than once. Wal.

il 1913, and held out for month be
fore surrendering. 1t was much
spoiled with the granades," but the
repairs were only estimated to cost
military importance throughout the
seventeenth century.
Additions by Lord Wardens.
The first lord warden to make Wal.
mer castle his residence was the duke
of Dorset, appointed in 170S and again
in 1927. About 1870 he made various
alterations and additions to the old
structure to provide the necessary &C.
commodation for household, further
considerable additions We're made by
Mr.. Pitt, the earl of Liverpool, and
Earl Granville. Apart from certain
chambers belonging to the original
military work and since merely adapt.
ed to the uses of domestic service, the
are the chambers built by the duke of
Dorset. Bucks view, dated 1875,
shows the general aspect of this build

of the castle and follows the outlines
of its walls. There is nothing remark

hall, long passage leading through it,

venience dictated-theSe are the eie-

wall is pierced by oblong sash-win-
dows and the crest of the wall is
battlemented
The duke of Dorset's additions were
mainly on the sea front, which re-
mains much as he left it. | believe
the drawingroom was his-a pleasant,
sunny chamber-but Lord Granville
added to it. Mr. Pitt built the rooms
over the southern rampant. Finally,
in 1868. Lord Granville added a story
gate-house bastion. He also built the
tower. The stone employed came from
the demolition of Sandown castle. He
added to the drawing-room, as an al
cove. the little room in which it is as.
serted that Nelson and Pitt used to
confer.
There Is nothing stately or impress
sive about the aspect Of the interior,
but the irregularity of the plan adds to
theaeffect of domestic comfort and pri-
vacy which pervades the house. One
can easily understand how successive
families have become attached to it.
Externally there are several quite iIn-
pressive points of view, chiefly those
which command the massive and pre-
cipitous walls rising from the moat.
One of the walls, pulled down on the
occasion of Queen Victorias visit to
make new dining-room. was soon
afterward rebuilt. Talleyrand when
he visited Walmer insisted on sleeping
in Pitts room.

lieved Peirce drew the weapon, which
