 Contrary to the prevalent belief, the Crown dealt not un- 

 mercifully with the children of the attainted man for whose 

 benefit a lease for 31 years of the manor and estate of Amble 

 was granted by letters patent dated 3rd November, 18 Geo. II., 

 to Charles, Dnke of Richmond, and James Brndenal esq., as 

 trustees, reserving to the king the ancient rent of £16 9s. The 

 lease was renewed 8th August 1768 — for 23^ years from 14th 

 November 1775 — to the Earl of Lichfield and Lord Belie w as
