According to the " Kalendar," his lordship's stipend was 

 2,000/. a year ; the huntsman, David Johnson, had 12.5/.; and 

 six yeomen prickers, whose names are not given, were in 

 receipt of 104/. each per annum. We believe the marquis 

 carried the golden couples of the Royal pack for seventeen 

 years — from the 47tli year of the reign of George III., 

 during the Regency, and into the 4th year of the reign of 

 George IV., and that he died in his hunting harness in 

 August 1823, when he was succeeded by Lord Maryborough 

 (afterwards third Earl of Mornington), . who was ordered to 

 be sworn into the office on August 22, 1823, pursuant to 

 the following copy of the Royal sign manual in that 

 behalf: —
