As for the goodnesse or sufficiencie of our men, who is able to expresse the noble prowesse of so manie earles, of so manie lords and soldiers, trained vp euer in warres: The passing valiancie of our king may stand in place of innumerable souldiers. Sith then he being the lords annointed, is here amongst you, vnto whom ye haue vowed allegiance, performe your vow.
He was proud, ambitious, and inflexible; he longed for the time when the Earles should become famous, when their name should be one of weight in council. In early life his ambitious desires seemed about to be realized. He was but twenty when he succeeded his father, and was an only child, clever, keen and ambitious.
He entered Breede's room with his accustomed air of quiet service. Breede did not glance at him. He began, as usual, to dictate before Bean was seated. "Letter T.J.

From what has been above stated, it will appear that we have treated the well known history, intituled The Genealogie and Pedigree of the Earles of Southerland and written down to 1630 by Sir Robert Gordon, Baronet of Gordonstoun, and continued by Gilbert Gordon of Sallach until 1651, as mere fiction as regards all persons before William, first Earl.

It heth ane handsome church, with many ancient monuments and inscriptions on the old, interments of the Earles of this place.
These things being recited in the church of S. Peters in Yorke, in the presence of the said kings, & of Dauid the king of Scots brother, and before an innumerable number of other people, the bishops, earles, barons and knights of Scotland sware fealtie to the king of England and to Henrie his sonne, and to their heires against all men, as to their liege and souereigne lords.
The young man smiled in a superior manner. "Have to take your turn," he remarked laconically. "There's twenty before you, and Mr. Earles is going out at twelve sharp important engagement. Better come another morning." "Thank you," Anna answered. "I will take my chance." She removed some posters from a chair, and seated herself coolly. The young man looked at her.
Beyond was another door, on which was painted in black letters: MR. EARLES, Strictly Private Every one stared at Anna. Anna stared back at every one with undaunted composure. A young man with shiny frock coat and very high collar, advanced towards her languidly. "Want to see Mr. Earles?" he inquired. "I do," Anna answered. "Here is my card. Will you take it in to him?"
