argent and azure which is so familiar at Cambridge and Winchester. 1 

 Richard, Joan's son, was born in 1400, and he assumed his label 



with reference to his mother's bordure, thus displaying his descent 1 



from the semi-royal house of Beaufort in a manner at once clear 1 



and felicitous. He was, however, the only one of Joan's sons who 1 

 differenced in this way. 



His son, Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick and Salisbury, I 



"Lord of Glamorgan, Morgannoc and Middleham, Lord of the 1 



honour of Cockermouth," made use of an even more extensive 1 



variety of armorials than his father-in-law, Richard Beauchamp. I 



His seal 1 displays the following coat: — Quarterly ;1 and 4, Montacute J 



quartering Monthermer, 2 and 3, Neville of Salisbury, His seal as J 



Lord of Glamorgan has a shield : — Quarterly ; 1 and 4, De Clare I 



quarter ingTjQ Despencer, 2 and 3, Montacute quartering Monthermer, j| 



Neville not appearing at all. The shield in this achievement is j 



timbred with two crested helms, that to the dexter bearing a swan's j 



head for Beauchamp, that to the sinister the griffin's head between | 



two wings of Montacute. 2 The supporters are the Beauchamp bear j 



and the dun bull of Neville ; while below the shield are two ragged .j 



staves, badges of Warwick. The counter seal shows the earl on horse- } 

 back bearing a shield of Neville of Salisbury and a Neville crested 



helm. The caparisons of his war-horse are charged with : — Quarterly' f 

 1 and 4, Beauchamp quartering Newburgh, 3 2 and 3, De Clare 

 quartering Le Despencer. 



The compiler of the 1715 edition of Ashmole's " History of the 

 Order of the Garter" asserts, without, however, quoting his authority, 



*A cut is given in Doyle, vol. iii., p. 558. 



2 A good example of this crest is on the tomb of Sir John Montacute in 

 Salisbury Cathedral. (See "Notes on the Heraldry of Salisbury Cathedral," 

 Wilts Arch. Mag., vol. xxix., p. 113.) 



3 The article on heraldry by Gr. T. Clark in Encyc. Brit. (1898) states that 

 " the chevrons in this coat are charged with five leopard's heads jessant-de-lis 

 referring to Cantelupe." The writer of the present notes would suggest with 

 great diffidence that the somewhat elaborately formed ermine spots on the 

 chevron may have been mistaken by the author of the article for leopard's 

 heads jessant-de-lis.
