Peregrine Bertie, Baron Willoughby of Eresby and Brooke, Governor of Berwick. Berkley, Baron Berkley, of the ancient family of the Kings of Denmark. Parker, Baron Morley. Dacre, Baron Dacre of Gyllesland: this barony is vacant. Dacre, Baron Dacre of the South: he died four years since, and the barony devolved to his daughter. Brook, Baron Cobham, Warden of the Cinque Ports.
It seems the Buck sent him up five pounds in a letther, and the Counsellor read the letther, and said it came from a most respectable gentleman, a friend of his, one Barney no, not Barney it wasn't Barney he called him, but but let me see ay, begad Bir Birnard ay, one Birnard English, Esquire, from the Barony of Treena Heela; bekaise, as the Buck doesn't keep himself very closely to any particular place of livin', he dated his letther, I suppose, from the Barony at large."
Lord de Mowbray renewed his acquaintance with a man who was successful; bowed to Hatton whenever they met; and finally consulted him respecting the barony of Valence which had been in the old Fitz-Warene and Mowbray families and to which it was thought the present earl might prefer some hocus-pocus claim through his deceased mother; so that however recent was his date as an English earl, he might figure on the roll as a Plantagenet baron, which in the course of another century would complete the grand mystification of high nobility.
Bladen, I and my father had factored the Barony fo' fifteen years and upward, but that was the first time the supplies fo' the general's table had ever been toted here in a meal sack! "I rode out that very afternoon, but Joe, who was one of your mannerly niggers, met me at the door and says, 'Mr.

"I thought I had written you word that the Cardinal de Le Roche-Aimon was abbe de St. Germain. It is said that M. de Briges has the barony de Mercoeur. M. de la Vauguyon has died, little regretted either by the court or by the town.
All the lands belonging to the barony of Guaisnic, the first in Brittany, are pledged to farmers, and bring in sixty thousand francs a year, in spite of ignorant culture. The du Gaisnics remain the owners of these lands although they receive none of the revenues, for the reason that for the last two hundred years they have been unable to pay off the money advanced upon them.
It was hinted by one that the ancient barony of the Talbots would be revived by the king; and the gratitude of a free and grateful country, with the consciousness of having materially aided in acquiring that independence which should be the birthright of every Englishman, was eloquently portrayed by the other.
I understand that the Turrald barony was a barony by writ whatever that may be. The point is that if my brother had lived to restore it, the title, on his death, would have descended to his only daughter, if she had been born in wedlock. As she is illegitimate, the title would have descended to me, and after me to my son."
I don't know, really, but that has always been my idea." "It depends on the terms of the original creation. The Turrald barony originally went into abeyance among several daughters. One daughter could have succeeded. There is nothing in the wording of the original writ to prevent it no limitation to male heirs. It is now well established by precedent that a daughter can inherit a barony by writ.
'I believe, said the old man, 'half the people of the barony know that their poor auld laird is somewhere hereabout; for I see they do not suffer a single bairn to come here a bird-nesting; a practice whilk, when I was in full possession of my power as baron, I was unable totally to inhibit.
