SHRAPNEL, Henry, Lieutenant-General, Colonel Commandant of the sixth

The inventor of the ‘Shrapnel Shell,’ the most destructive im- 
plement of modern warfare. A large slab in the floor of the

SrEewarD, Cuartes. (d. 11 July, 1698.) 
This is a large and striking marble monument on the north side 
of the Chancel, near the east end. It contains a full length figure, 
habited in the well known costume of the time of James II. Who 
‘Charles Steward’ may have been is not known, but tradition says 
that he was of the royal line of ‘Steward,’ (or ‘Stuart,’) though 
this may have arisen from the fact of his crest being a ‘ regal crown.’ 
The arms borne by him (as described below) are those of Steward of 
Patteshull, Co. Northampton, though ¢heir crest is different ;—indeed 
the ‘ regal crown’ is not given in the books of reference as the crest 
of any family of this name. He lived at Cumberwell, though whe- 
ther as owner or simply occupier is uncertain. He married ‘ Mary 
Compton,’ of the ancient family of that name at Hartpury in Glou- 
cester; the arms he impales on his shield being the same as those 
borne by the Marquis of Northampton: though, as it appears 
from the note made after describing the arms on her brother’s 
monument, the coat of ‘Compton of Hartpury’ is quite different from 
the one here impaled with ‘Steward.’ A Latin inscription on his 
monument tells us that his death was in consequence of injuries 
received, in the first instance, by a fall from a horse. This costly 
monument was erected to his memory by his widow, a few years 
after his decease. 
Arms. Or, a fesse checky argent and azure, within a border ermine, 
for Srewarp,—impaling, Sabie a lion passant gardant or between three 
esquires’ helmets argent, garnished of the second, for Compron. Crest. 
On a wreath or and azure, a regal crown proper. 
Taunton, Rosert, L.L.D. (d. 17 July, 1797), and Frances, his wife, (d. 25 
Noy., 1819), daughter and co-heiress of Leonard Cropp, of Co. Hants.
