The British Aristocracy Torn between the House of Lords and the Mosley Movement KARINA URBACH At the height of the Nuremberg trials the British ambassador to Washington, Lord Halifax, wrote to the Duchess of Portland: 'My dearest Ivy, I am amused with you saying that some of the peers are apprehensive of being summoned to give evidence at Nuremberg.'' At a time when his fellow aristocrats were still living in fear, Halifax had already received a summons: 'Goering has requested me and Alex Cadogan to go and testify to how earnest a seeker of the peace he was up to the war.'2 Of course Halifax, the foreign secretary closely associated with appease- ment, was used to being showered by invitations from Nazis;3 yet why did other peers seriously fear that they might also be summoned to a war crimes tribunal? To this day it is difficult to estimate the number of British nobles with leanings to the radical right.

    DIVISION OF THE HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCES CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY PASADENA, CALIFORNIA 91125 HORSES AND BRIDLES J. Kent Clark r- 0 0 '1- HUMANITIES WORKING PAPER 167 November 1997 Horses and Bridles J. Kent Clark Horses and Bridles is Chapter XIX of my biography of Thomas Wharton, 5th Baron, 1st Earl, and 1st Marquess of Wharton. The chapter covers the major political events of 1687, particularly those leading up to the Revolution of 1688. It shows how James II alienated his Tory subjects and provided the Whig "Tom" Wharton, soon to be a leader in the Revolution, with powerful allies The chapter also deals with the most significant changes in the personal world of the Whartons. The table of abbreviations and the short-title bibliography apply to the whole book, not merely this chapter. GIFT HORSES AND BRIDLES J. Kent Clark On 19 March 1687, Mary Wharton Kemeys had her first sitting at the studio of portrait artist William Wissing. Her brother Tom, she reported to her husband, had already sat several times; his portrait, she supposed, would be finished after one more session. The popular Wissing was also making a portrait of Tom's mistress Jane Dering, whom Mary had met at the studio, along with Jane's sister Katharine, Lady Perceval. Since Wissing was working on several other portraits, Mary told her husband, it was unlikely that her own picture would be completed before she was obliged to return home to Wales. 1 As for Wharton family news, Mary said, the only recent event worth mentioning was Tom's victory at Newport Pagnell, where that week his horse had won a plate worth thirty pounds.
