How pleas'd did She their equal courage view ; > How potent must your wondrous numbers be, Heroes no less in her great councils too. J That can make harmony and tears agree ! As Sovereignty her Delphic worthies calls Nay, aud a yet more mystic power t' assume, To her oraculous senatory walls, Beyond the grave, and ev'n before the womb, Albion and Albion's sovereign right t' espouse, Th' unborn and dead you join; at whose command Who like Eighth Henry's noble RUTLAND rose ; PAST, PRLSENT, and To COME, walk hand in hand ; Rose to reclaim the brightest jewel torn Whilst yourenlighten'd Janus' eyes can fee From Albion's crown aspiring Rome t' adorn, To both the poles of wide Eternity. By her usurping mitred tyrants worn. Hark ! from th' illustrious RUTLAND'S Belvoir walls, A work which ev*n her sceptred slaves before Your duteous airs that hallow'd subject calls; Durst ne'er attempt; her abject chains of yore A theme that can your utmost prospect lead Bigoted Cowardice so tamely wore. Through the vast THREE, to chant that Worthy dead* For the first blow in this great cause so warm Look back first t' his great Ancestors' rich dust, Who 's like the daring RUTLAND'S leading arm ; Lodg'd in their urns of venerable rust; When taking up, t' his deathless fame's record, And, reading those recorded Heroes through, A pens more bold than his forefather's5 swordIVVU1U,, Here his divine original review. He bid th' usurper her stol'n plumes restorefstore, "1 Then handed through his own bright glories down* Sent the subscrib'd resumption mandattte io'er, > Their transmigrated virtues ati his own, And the defiance flag to her'proud Vaticatican bore. J Behold the beauteous copy drawn so true, But say, my Muse, through the long RUTLAND line And chant the fragrant breath of life he drew J Did all this inborn, hardy virtue shine ? And last, look up above, for a survey Yes, how has that Warm spark their breasts inspir'd, Of the bright joys of his immortal day j That dread Bellona ev'n their nonage flr'd! Around this spacious field to make your tOuf, How has recorded history renown'd The Muse's wing too high Can never soar. A conquering RUTLAND Boy with laurels crown*d i Thou then, URANIA, fairest of the Nine, As the bold Michael arm'd with vengeance rode, Be this great subject's inspiration thine. Led his bright host, the chieftain of a God ; This task to undertake, begin and read So by the fair vicegerent of high Heaven, The RUTLAND monuments of their great Dead, Her royal standard to her RUTLAND giv'n, Inscrib'd with their own pens of steel; so long {Such-th' Albion great Eliza's favours fhin'd) Enroll'd in honour : here set out thy song* Ev'n her young ward § with her bold Sussex joynM, When Britain, long a canton'd orb of pow'l) Commission'd chiefs they led her thousands forth Two sceptres her divided monarchs bore, To clear th' engendring clouds in her dark North ; How, when the Caledonian's haughty pride, To scourge two rebel heads, Northumberland's Too rough a neighbour on the Albion side, And her revolting Westmorland's arm'd bands. The angry Thistle, from her coarser bed, Oh Treason, whence thy root! could there be foes 'Gainst th' envy'd Rose rais'd her aspiring head, Against the bright Eliza's glory rose ? Have the great RUTLAND chiefs, call'd to adorn "J But, oh ! the daring insolents so hush'd, The English annals, the dread thunder borne, I Like bold Alcides cradle serpents crush'd, To scourge th' ambition of the tow'ring thorn. J With this fair fruit from his young brows rich sweat, Yes, the original RUTLAND fame to track The juvenile victor his dread mistress met> Ev'n up to a long train of ages back, And his first orisons of duty paid, How have we seen them drive the hunted foe, Low at her feet his early laurels laid. Back ev'n to his trembling walls of Edinb'rough *. But did great RUTLAND from so fair a train Nor wonder that a hardy MANNERS draws Of Worthies, his bright ancestry's long reign, So keen a sword, arm'd ill the Sovereign cause, Look backwards, only a past age review ? In his King's cause his courage all inborn, No, his blest eyes with equal prospect too, His chaplets of those bays so proudly worne, All pleas'd, look'd forward to the promising A genuine warmth the pushing Hero brings, Bright glories of his GRANBY'S growing spring, When his own veins claim the rich blood of Kings. Deck'd with each grace—But hold, forbear to raise "I Let wanton Heraldry's profuser grant Thy airs, bold Muse, to h-is exalted praise, !• In common fields her random trophies plant; His tender, unfond ear forbids thy lays.

  • A Brief History by WILL SWALES Welcome
    a brief history BY WILL SWALES welcome Welcome to a brief history of The Rutland Arms Hotel, Bakewell. During the late spring and early summer of 2016 we had the good fortune to be able to revitalise and refurbish one of our fabulous sister inns, The King’s Head in Richmond, North Yorkshire. During the planning stage of this project we started to look hard at the building and its many historical attributes, at how some parts of the building had been added during its 300 years of existence. And whilst contemplating the small changes and additions we wanted to make, it dawned on me that we will only be its custodians for a generation or two at most. I can’t foretell who will follow but started thinking about who had been its keepers in the past. Therefore, we asked a good friend if he would research The King’s Head and try to separate the fact from the fable; what’s true and what has been elaborated during the storytelling process over the years. Will Swales made such a good job of The King’s Head that we then asked him to complete the same task for The Rutland Arms Hotel. What follows is that research. We think it’s as accurate as can be, but naturally there are many gaps and we would welcome any additional information. I hope you enjoy this small booklet and the hospitality and service we provide within The Rutland Arms Hotel. Please feel free to take this copy with you.

    TALES OF OUR GREAT FAMILIES THE HEIRESS OF HADDON HALL BY EDWARD WALFORD LONDON, 1877 Edited by David Trutt TALES OF OUR GREAT FAMILIES BY EDWARD WALFORD, 1877. THE HEIRESS OF HADDON HALL INTRODUCTION Page 3 HADDON HALL Page 4 KING OF THE PEAK Page 5 PRINCESS OF THE PEAK Page 7 ELOPEMENT Page 8 DOROTHY MANNERS Page 9 Published 2010 by David Trutt Los Angeles, California USA email: [email protected] Web Site: www.haddon-hall.com 3 INTRODUCTION Edward Walford was born in 1823 and died in 1897. He was a scholar and journalist in London. Walford edited numerous biographical, genealogical, and topographical works. From his preface— UNDER the title of “Tales of our Great Families,” I have ventured to publish a series of narratives relating to the families of the titled and untitled nobility of this country, in the hope of amusing my readers with materials which for twenty years I have been gleaning from various sources, and which have grown so rapidly in my hands that my only difficulty seems to lie in selecting amid such an embarras de richesses. If it be not literally true that every house, whether high or low, has its “skeleton in the closet,” at all events the past history of most of our ancient houses is replete with incidents which, however artlessly they may be told, will certainly make good the adage that “truth is stranger than fiction.” In treating of these matters I wish by way of preface to remark that my readers must not always look for novelty.

  • English Ballads and Other Poems
    ENGLISH BALLADS AND OTHER POEMS BY LORD JOHN JAMES R. MANNERS, M.P. 1850 Edited by David Trutt ENGLISH BALLADS AND OTHER POEMS BY LORD JOHN JAMES ROBERT MANNERS, M.P., 1850 LONDON: FRANCIS & JOHN RIVINGTON ST. PAUL’S CHURCH YARD, AND WATERLOO PLACE To Alexander Baillie Cochrane, esq. M.P. : These pages, in memory of happy hours passed, and historic scenes visited together, are affectionately dedicated. Many of the following Poems have appeared in various periodicals; but I venture to reprint them, in the hope they may afford pleasure to some who have not met with them before. Published 2010 by David Trutt Los Angeles, California USA email: [email protected] Web Site: www.haddon-hall.com 3 INTRODUCTION John James Robert Manners (1818-1906), Seventh Duke of Rutland, succeeded to the title when his older brother died in 1888. He published two books of poetry, England’s Trust and Other Poems in 1841 and English Ballads and Other Poems in 1850. His father, John Henry Manners, Fifth Duke of Rutland, succeeded to the title at the age of nine in 1787 and enjoyed the title for seventy years, until his death in 1857. John Henry Manners, perhaps more than any other person, was responsible for enabling the creation of the romance of Haddon Hall and its accompanying legend of the elopement of Dorothy Vernon. A Haddon Hall visitor noted in 1825: “Bakewell is much improved of late. Belongs almost entirely to the Duke of Rutland, who has built an excellent new inn–the Rutland Arms–a very nice house to dine or stay at night.
