it at Lambeth. In the survey of the manor of Aldboume, Duchy of Lancaster 

 Office, he is stated, 6. E. 6. to have held a farm there, called Hide ; and also 

 the manor of Fittleton, of the manor of Everley. 



19. Her mother, Margaret, Lady Essex, died at Becket in Berkshire, in 1571, 

 and her will, dated in 1567, was proved in 1572. She mentions her daughter 

 by the name of Lady Darell. She desii-es to be buried by her husband, in the 

 tomb which she had made at Lambourne. This still exists. The marriage 

 with Rogers, is evidenced by a deed at the Rolls Office, dated Feb. 6. 3 and 4. 

 Philip and Mary, (1557.) concerning a lease of Kingston and Thrupp in the 

 parish of Ramsbury. "John Rogers of Bryanstone, Co. Dorset, and Dame 

 Elizabeth his Wife, late wife of Sir Edward Darell of Lytlecote." This John, 

 aftewards knighted, died at Becket, July 22, 1565, as appears by his monu- 

 mental inscription at Blandford, noted by Symonds in his MS. Diary, but 

 erroneously copied by Hutchins for his History of Dorset. There is no record 

 at Doctors' Commons relating to the divorce. Some proceedings in Chancery 

 which took place between 1559 and 1579, in a cause of Pyper v. Fortescue 

 disclose this fact, together with accusations and counter accusations of profli- 

 gacy, which are appropriate addenda to the tale of Wild Darell himself. 

 Inter alia, the defendant accuses Elizabeth, Lady Darell, of having given 

 birth to a male child, begotten by one Hacker a Falconer, in her husband's 

 absence, while serving in the wars. 



20. In her answer to the accusations made in these Chancery proceedings, she 

 states that she was bom in Norfolk, and that her father was James Danyell 

 of London, gent. Her third husband died in 1576, and she was his wife in 

 1569, as, in that year, he presented to Fittleton, jwre uxoris. There are two 

 monuments with brasses to their memory in Faulkbourne Church. On that 

 of the wife, are three shields, 1. a lozenge shield, bearing the quarterly coat 

 of Daniell. 2. Darell, quartering Chicheley, Home, and Royden, and im- 

 paling Daniell. This is an error of the engraver or of his employer. The 

 coats of Chicheley, &c., were only borne by the Darells of Scotney. 3. 

 Mansell with 9 quarterings, impaling Daniell. Her son Dudley Fortescue, 

 is stated in Clutterbuck's Herts, Vol. I. p. 349, to have died Sep. 12, 2 Jas. 1. 

 and to have left by Mary his wife, whom he married in 1581, a son Dudley 

 aged 14. Amongst the Daiell papers at the Rolls Office, are several receipts 

 signed by her for monies paid by William Darell : half-yearly sums of £34 

 lor charges on iJalsdun and other estates. She presented to Fittleton in 1554 

 as Maria Daniell, alias Mansell. 



21. She is supposed to have married Egi-emont Radclili'e, and an entry in B. 

 and H. f. 93. Coll. Arm., favors the supposition, yet when the case of the 

 Barony of Fitzwalter was encjuired into, no such marriage was noticed, al- 

 though it became necessary to prove the extinction of issue of this Egremont. 

 When the Earl of Sussex, his half brother, marched against the rebels in 

 1509, the latter was with them. He was thereupon attainted, and fled tne 

 kingdom. Wo And frequent notices of him in Strypo. In 1571, as "a busy 

 man" at Paris ; in 1572, pensioned by the King of Spain; iu 1577, as incar- 

 cerated in the Tower ; '* of a turbulent spirit"; &o., &o. Ho was at last 

 beheaded iu the market-place at Namur, by order of Don John of Austria, for 

 some real or pretended plot. Surtees (Hist, of Durham,) says, this was iu
