At first it was n palace, but later was used as n prison. hny of the Church of Kntflaiid, no hss h person than Him I ejin of Wells. He was nephew of the then Mike of Komemet und his nuccess hn to the dukedom was not very temple. Mother of SJ. The beautiful Leonora could dis play no armorial escutcheons. The j nearest thltlK npproachtiifc U was a M-ii Ihui n;r father had " l'"' jdbor showing that In Woolwich ho j as the owner of a bar, where Leo nora wailed on trade. I Ami Leonora was no longer In (her first youth. She was :JK, nix ; years older than her soldier ml i mii'er. j Moreover, she was a widow who ihud borne six children to her hns jii.ind, threo of whom were living. Her husband )md been an un : successful saloonkeeper who had shipped for indin und died there. liut in this story of old times, love broke down nil harriers ( ukc. caste and wealth and the col onel ami the pretty widow were married ouietiy In u country church. They hud three soiiH, of whom Ihe eldest was christened Francis Kdwnrd Seymour. The present duke, whose claim to the title lias just been afiir d by the Committee of Privileges (,t the House of Lords, is descended from the eldest son of this romantic couple. Hut he only establish. -d his title after one of ihe most scaichiaK and j painstaking examinations in tne hisiory of Kngland. i Ami those who hod counter claims to the dukedom attacked the fold-lime romance by one even more jiomanilc. j Leonora's first husband, who (went out to India in I7sr., was John Hudson. He was a dweller in I'ad jiiinMon street In the parish of ' Maryhdione London, j Two John Hmt-oiH. j it was claimed on behalf of Leo 1 nora that this firs! husband died !iu Indio. in 17K0 and that, on proof I of this, she probated his will and jlook possession of his house as her jown property. j Hut siiiKUlarly enough, in that jsaiue parish, same street and same i neighborhood, the taxbooks of that day showed that there was a John Hudson living there alter Leonora's marriage with Colonel Seymour. Moreover, he did not die until lT'.U. If Ihls John Hudson w:i the same man us Leonoru's John, then her marriage w Kit Tulonel Sey mour wus no marriage and the children were not leglflmale. The court suhl that In order to attack Leonora's nmrringe It was necessary to believe Unit John Hud son returned to Knuland and acted like the Knueh Ardeit of Tennyson's iumous poem, living la secrecy un til he died. Hul the" court smashed this by saying I hul the nc of iho second John Hudson, us recorded, bore no rest mblunce to that of lh first John Hudson, - Conviction was forced that there were two men by the same uunm living in the same street and with in u few years of iwli other. It was a striking coincl.fence und nothing more, the court ruled. The claims of General Seymour were ap proved. The new duke is years old and had a distinguished career in the army, thus following in the loot hiepa of that Seymour who mar ried the saloonkeeper's daughter.
