Wilts Obituary. 121 



represented Wilton in Parliament 1877 — 1885, and Croydon 1886—95. 

 A junior Lord of the Treasury, 1885 — 92. He succeeded his brother 

 (13th Earl) in the Peerage, 1895, and was appointed Lord Steward 

 of the Household, holding that office until 1905. Captain in Wilts 

 Yeomanry, 1876 — 80. He leaves two sons and two daughters, Reginald, 

 Lord Herbert, Captain in the Royal Horse Guards and A.D.C. to 

 Sir H. Paget, Commanding in Chief in Ireland, who succeeds to the 

 Peerage, Lady Beatrix Wilkinson, Lady Muriel Herbert, and the 

 Hon. George Sidney Herbert. Lord Pembroke was the largest 

 landowner in the county, owning some 60,000 acres in South Wilts, 

 as well as large estates in Dublin and the neighbourhood. He 

 was president of the South Wilts Constitutional Association and 

 president of the Wilts Archaeological Society, 1906—8. In county 

 matters he took a very prominent part. He was a constant attendant 

 at the meetings of the County Council, and was chairman of the 

 Standing Joint Committee. His fine presence, and always courteous 

 manners, his wide knowledge of men and affairs, and his practical 

 wisdom, apart from the position which he occupied in the county, gave 

 him a place in public business among men of all classes and opinions 

 that will be hard to fill. As a landlord he carried on the excellent 

 traditions of the Pembroke estate, than which there is none better 

 managed in the county.
