  • The Cairngorm Club Journal 111, 2015
    246 The Mar Estate Editor's note: Graham Ewen, the late Honorary President of the Club, has written 9 articles for the Journal on the history of the Mar Estate. This is the final one, on the Corriemulzie Estate. After he started to write this article he became ill and died, but his long-time collaborator on the research of the Duff House Papers, Eddie Martin, has undertaken the task of completing the article. Corriemulzie Eddie Martin and Graham Ewen The precise boundaries of the Corriemulzie Estate are difficult to identify beyond the fact that they were located on the road from Braemar to Inverey, bounded by Auchendryne Estate to the east and Inverey Estate to the west. In a Charter dated 28 September 1632, granted by John, Earl of Mar to an Alister Mackenzie, it is described as the town and lands of Corriemulzie, with the pendicle called Wester Arderg extending to four oxgates, the town and lands of Craggan extending to two oxgates and the shielings of Reflinchwood, Inveraltlat and Corronraw which were probably on the east side of Glen Ey. An oxgate varies in area and averages about 13 acres. The southern march was probably the ridge of Creag an Fhithich or, using the archaic phrase for a ridge, 'where wind and weather shears'. The northern march of the Estate is even more difficult to define as Craggan is on the north side of the river Dee and one would have expected the river itself to be the natural boundary, (Fig. 1). After much litigation between Farquharson of Inverey, who now owned Corriemulzie, and the Earl of Fife, who now owned the Mackenzie of Dalmore Estate, Craggan was ceded to Thethe Earl followin Cairngormg an exchange of grazing right Clubs and the river became the northern march.

  • Mar Lodge Estates Were Feued: Mackenzies of Dalmore Farquharsons of Inverey Lamonts of Corriemulzie and Many More
    This presentation was given by the Mar Estate, Senior Trustee, Mr Mark Nicolson (MN) who has held this position since June 1987. MN cannot guarantee everything is factual, although our records are the largest collection in Scotland; some 1500 boxes which, are on loan to Aberdeen University Library: I (MN) have not read them all. The story starts with a young boy called William Duff, standing on a midden behind his father's farm, looking north down the river Lossie. He was purported to have remarked "All them lums that reek, I will ane", and eventually he did. The business had been started by his grandfather, continued by his father, but it was William Duff of Dipple (1696-1763) later Lord Braco, Viscount Macduff and then Earl Fife, all purchased Irish titles, who really got things going. Duff was a descendent of money lenders and followed in the family tradition, securing money by feudal superiorities. His game was to lend against superiorities and then monitor closely the fortunes of the borrowers through an excellenbt network of information. When the borrower was down he would foreclose, demanding payment of the loan. At that time there was no consideration; which means he just took the security for the loan with no obligation to sell and give any surplus back to the borrower. Subsequently he would 'irritate' the feus, arguing that feuing conditions had been broken and that as a result the feu was null and void. In effect obtaining vacant possession and then re-letting at rents greater than the feu duty.

  • The Man Who Enriched – and Robbed – the Tories
    Parliamentary History,Vol. 40, pt. 2 (2021), pp. 378–390 The Man Who Enriched – and Robbed – the Tories ALISTAIR LEXDEN House of Lords Horace Farquhar, financier, courtier and politician, was a man without a moral compass. He combined ruthlessness and dishonesty with great charm. As a Liberal Unionist MP in the 1890s, his chief aim was to get a peerage, for which he paid handsomely. He exploited everyone who came his way to increase his wealth and boost his social position, gaining an earldom from Lloyd George, to whose notorious personal political fund he diverted substantial amounts from the Conservative Party, of which he was treasurer from 1911 to 1923, the first holder of that post. The Tories’ money went into his own pocket as well. During these years, he also held senior positions at court, retaining under George V the trust of the royal family which he had won under Edward VII.By the time of his death in 1923,however,his wealth had disappeared,and he was found to be bankrupt. He was a man of many secrets. They have been probed and explored, drawing on such material relating to his scandalous career as has so far come to light. Keywords: Conservative Party; financial corruption; homosexuality; Liberal Unionist Party; monarchy; royal family; sale of honours 1 Horace Brand Farquhar (1844–1923), pronounced Farkwer, 1st and last Earl Farquhar, of St Marylebone,was one of the greatest rogues of his time,a man capable of almost any misdeed or sin short of murder (and it is hard to feel completely confident that he would have drawn thelineeventhere).1 He had three great loves: money, titles and royalty.
