WILLIAM LE SCROPE, Lord Scrope, Lord Treasurer, who became King of the Isle of Man in 1395, and created Earl of Wiltshire in 1397. In 1398, he became Lord of Oswestry, Clun, Chirk, Dinas Brân, Bromfield, and Iâl. Azure, a bend or, for Scrope; and gules, three men's legs armed ppr., conjoined in fess at the upper part of the thigh, flexed in triangle, argent, garnished and spurred or, for the Isle of Man. He did not, however, long enjoy his honours, for, on the deposition of King Richard, he fell a victim to popular fury

in 1399.

Richard, Earl of Warren, married first, Elizabeth, daughter of William de Bohun, Earl of Northampton, son of Humphrey de Bohun, Earl of Hereford and Essex, Lord Constable of England, azure, on a bend between two cottises, and six lions rampant or, three mullets, sable; and secondly, he married Philippa, daughter of Edmond Mortimer, Earl of March, and widow of John Hastings, Earl of Pembroke, or a maunch gules, in which family it is remarkable that no son ever saw his own. father, the father dying always before the son was born.' By this lady the earl had no issue; but, by his first wife, Help to English History. By P. Heylyn, D.D.

Elizabeth de Bohun, he had issue four sons: Thomas, his successor, and Robert and William, who died young, and four daughters-1, Elizabeth, who married, first, William de Montacute, son of William, Earl of Salisbury, argent, three fusils in fess gules; secondly, Thomas Mowbray, Duke of Norfolk, K.G.; thirdly, Sir Robert Goushill, knight; and lastly, Sir Gerard Ufflete, knight;2 2, Joanna, wife of William de Beauchamp, Lord Abergavenny; 3, Margaret, wife of Sir Rowland Lenthall, knight; and-4, Alice, wife of John Charlton, Lord Powys.

XI. THOMAS FITZ-ALAN, Earl of Warren and Surrey, seventh Earl of Arundel, and Lord of Oswestry, Clun, Chirk, Dinas Brân, Bromfield, and Iâl, had all the other lordships of his father. He was restored, 1 Henry IV, 1399, and subsequently created a Knight of the Garter. In the 13th of Henry IV (1412), he granted to the burgesses of the town of Holt, their English heirs and assigns, and the tenants of that town, "license of digging, taking, and freely carrying sea coals and turves in our wastes of Coed Poeth and Brinbawe, in all other wastes and places where other our English or Welsh subjects dig coal and turves for their fuel in their houses within our town aforesaid, at their own free will, without the contradiction of us, our heirs, or ministers whomsoever". He was a great benefactor to the town of Oswestry, and obtained a pardon from the king for his vassals in the lordships of Bromfield, Chirk, and Oswestry, who had joined Owain Glyndyfrdwy. He died in 1421, 3rd Henry V, and had by Beatrice his wife (a natural daughter of John, King of Portugal), who was buried at Arundel, two sons, Richard and William, who died young, and his unsettled estates, including the lordship of Brom

1 Sir Robert Goushill, of Heveringham, co. Notts. By his wife Elizabeth, he had some daughters, co-heirs, one of whom, Joan, married Sir Thomas Stanley, K.G., Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Comptroller of the Household, and Chamberlain to Henry VI, who was summoned to Parliament as Baron Stanley, 34th Henry VI, 20th January 1456. 2 Brayle's Hist. of Surrey, i, 113.
