| Sir Henry Arthur Dalrymple Dalrymple-White, 2nd baronet [UK 1926] | ||||||
| Sir Henry, a District Officer in Kenya, appears to have had a spot of bother with two visiting | ||||||
| English police officers in late 1954, as reported in "The Daily Mail' of 11 January 1955:- | ||||||
| 'Sir Henry Dalrymple-White today described in court how he fought with broken bottles against | ||||||
| two police inspectors who are said to have burst into his hut in the night. Sir Henry, 37-year- | ||||||
| old District Officer in charge of a Kikuyu Home Guard unit at Giakanja, appeared in court with his | ||||||
| face still scarred. Dr. Thomas Gillespie, who attended him after the fight, said that he would be | ||||||
| permanently disfigured. He had had to put 15 stitches in Sir Henry's head. | ||||||
| 'Chief Inspector Richard Crosby Kerry, of Southport, and Inspector Harvey Lewis, of Oldham, | ||||||
| are charged with assaulting him. Sir Henry alleged that the fight was a sequel to a previous | ||||||
| incident on November 28 [1954]. He said that on that occasion Kerry had maltreated a Mau | ||||||
| Mau prisoner who had been brought into the post. "Kerry kicked him in the face," he said. | ||||||
| 'And this was the story Sir Henry told of what happened after a police whist drive on December | ||||||
| 13:- "At 1.45 that morning I was awakened by kicks on the door of my hut. I recognised Kerry's | ||||||
| shouting abuse. Kerry burst into the hut. He endeavoured to strike me," alleged Sir Henry. "I | ||||||
| grappled with him and we fell to the floor, still struggling. We rolled against the wall. I felt an | ||||||
| empty bottle under my hand. I hit his head with it. The bottle broke. We were still struggling | ||||||
| when I felt a hard blow on the back of my own head. This was from a bottle aimed by Lewis. | ||||||
| At one point we stopped fighting and I tried to reason with Kerry. I seem to have said some- | ||||||
| thing which annoyed him, for he put his hand on his pistol. Lewis disarmed him, but also took | ||||||
| my gun, remarking: 'It's a good clean fight,' or words to that effect. Outside the hut Kerry | ||||||
| came at me again. I knocked him down. He got up, grabbed me and wrenched my shirt off. | ||||||
| The fight lasted half an hour, till we were both exhausted." | ||||||
| 'Superintendent Leslie Pridgeon said that two pages had been torn from the police station | ||||||
| logbook which referred to incidents of the night. He alleged that entries had been re-written | ||||||
| by Lewis to make it appear as if he and Kerry had been out on an anti-Mau Mau ambush.' | ||||||
| "The Daily Mail" of 25 January 1955 reported that:- | ||||||
| 'Chief Inspector Richard Kerry of Southport, and Inspector Harvey Lewis, of Oldham were | ||||||
| today fined £50 and £30 respectively at Nyeri for assaulting Sir Henry Dalrymple-White, 37- | ||||||
| year old baronet with a broken bottle at a Kikuyu guard post. Both men pleaded guilty. The | ||||||
| court ordered £30 and £20 of the fines to be paid to Sir Henry as "financial restitution." | ||||||
| Sir Lionel Edward Hamilton Marmaduke Darell, 6th baronet [GB 1795] | ||||||
| The London "Telegraph" reported on 1 June 1954 that "Col. Sir Lionel Darell, 6th baronet, died | ||||||
| through a blood clot blocking an artery due to confinement in bed after being scalded when he | ||||||
| accidentally turned on a hot-water tap in the bath, it was said at a Hammersmith inquest | ||||||
| yesterday. A verdict of accidental death was recorded. He died at his daughter's home in | ||||||
| Chelsea Square, Chelsea, aged 78. | ||||||
| Sir Robert Davers, 5th baronet | ||||||
| Sir Robert was killed by hostile Indians in June 1763. Some sources state that he was killed in | ||||||
| a boat while crossing Lake Huron. The report below appeared in 'The London Evening Post' of | ||||||
| 15 September 1763. It is not for the squeamish...... | ||||||
| 'Extract from a letter from Niagara, July 31. Letters from Detroit of the 8th inst. inform us, that | ||||||
| the Savages were more numerous than ever about that place; that the garrison were in high | ||||||
| spirits, and had made a sortie, in which an Indian Chief and two others were killed; upon which | ||||||
| the father of the Chief, took out Capt. Campbell, of the 60th regiment, whom they had some | ||||||
| time before made prisoner, and after giving him time to pray, on condition he kneeled on the | ||||||
| body of the slain Chief, they killed him, took out his heart, and eat it, reeking from his body, | ||||||
| and then cut him to pieces. Sir Robert Davers they boiled and eat: And an officer that was | ||||||
| taken at St. Dusky, who has since escaped, saw the skin of Lieut. Robertson's arms made into | ||||||
| a tobacco pouch.' | ||||||
| Sir Hugh Halliday Trevor Dawson, 3rd baronet | ||||||
| Sir Trevor committed suicide in February 1983. The following report on the subsequent inquest | ||||||
| appeared in "The Guardian" of 24 March 1983:- | ||||||
| 'Sir Trevor Dawson, a merchant banker known in racing circles and in the City as the Galloping | ||||||
| Major, killed himself to beat a midnight deadline on £137,500 worth of insurance policies, an | ||||||
| inquest jury decided yesterday. | ||||||
| 'The inquest at Westminster Coroner's court was told that it was an attempt to provide for his | ||||||
| wife and handicapped son by Sir Trevor, aged 51, who drank champagne before killing himself. | ||||||
| 'His body was found on February 15, the day after, by his chauffeur, Mr Harold Munton. Sir | ||||||
| Trevor was slumped in an armchair with a plastic bag over his head in the lounge of his flat in | ||||||
| Belgravia, London. | ||||||
| 'In a letter to his wife, Lady Caroline Dawson [sic], dated February 14, he wrote: "There was | ||||||
| no other choice if you and Michael (his spastic son) were to have any security and | ||||||
| independence. I love you and I will be with you always." | ||||||
| 'Asked by the Westminster coroner, Dr Paul Knapman, what she thought was meant by "no | ||||||
| other choice," she answered: "I understood him to mean kill himself, commit suicide, I suppose." | ||||||
| 'Before the hearing began the jury was told by Dr Knapman that the case assumed rather more | ||||||
| than "incidental importance." He added: "Large sums of money for insurance could hinge on the | ||||||
| date which you decide Sir Trevor died." | ||||||
| 'Reaching its verdict, the jury decided that Sir Trevor killed himself to beat the midnight dead- | ||||||
| line on the insurance policies. | ||||||
| 'Lady Caroline, who separated from the baronet last year, was due to leave their cottage in | ||||||
| Pewsey, near Marlborough, Wiltshire, at the end of this month, after Barclays Bank, which owns | ||||||
| the premises, obtained a court order for repossession last November. | ||||||
| "This was a real worry to him. He had hoped I would be able to keep my son and live at the | ||||||
| cottage," Lady Caroline told the coroner. | ||||||
| 'Until recently her 26-year-old son had been looked after by Sir Trevor's parents, but after their | ||||||
| deaths he had nowhere to live, and for the last two weeks had been in a home. | ||||||
| 'Sir Trevor's career in the City ended in 1981 when he was among a group investigated by the | ||||||
| Director of Public Prosecutions over a Stock Exchange gamble. | ||||||
| 'A pathologist, Professor Keith Simpson, said it was difficult to say whether Sir Trevor died on | ||||||
| the evening of February 14, or in the early hours of the following day. The jury agreed on the | ||||||
| former date after Miss Pamela Gleason, Sir Trevor's secretary, told the inquest that on February | ||||||
| 11 he had asked her to look at the expiry date on one of his insurance policies. It was February | ||||||
| 15. | ||||||
| 'After the hearing Mr David Long, Sir Trevor's solicitor, said of the jury: "They have decided a | ||||||
| date, and we are grateful for that. But it is not the end of the road, there won't be any more | ||||||
| court action, but it is not the conclusion to this. The next step is to ask the insurance company | ||||||
| for the money. The cottage is mortgaged to the bank, and it is impossible to say the amount | ||||||
| Lady Caroline will get, possibly because of the debts." | ||||||
| Sir Barry Denny, 2nd baronet | ||||||
| Denny sat in the Irish House of Commons for County Kerry for a brief period in 1794. On 12 | ||||||
| January 1794, he married Anne Morgell, daughter of Crosbie Morgell, member for Tralee in the | ||||||
| Irish House of Commons between 1790 and 1794. | ||||||
| On the death of the sitting member for County Kerry, John Blennerhasset, in July 1794, the | ||||||
| resultant by-election was fought between John Gustavus Crosbie and Colonel Henry Herbert. | ||||||
| The other sitting member for the seat was Sir Barry Denny, who apparently promised that he | ||||||
| would not attempt to interfere in any way in the by-election. During the course of the by- | ||||||
| election, however, Crosbie took grave offence at some real or imagined breach of Denny's | ||||||
| neutrality, and as a result, he challenged Denny to a duel. | ||||||
| According the a report in the "Whitehall Evening Post" of 25 October 1794, "on Saturday last | ||||||
| a dispute arose between John Augustus [sic] Crosbie, Esq., one of the candidates for the | ||||||
| county of Kerry, and Sir Barry Denny; it was agreed that they should go out the next day, | ||||||
| and decide the matter; they accordingly met on Sunday at three o'clock in the afternoon, | ||||||
| and immediately took their ground; they fired together, Mr. Crosbie's ball entered Sir Barry's | ||||||
| head over the left eye, which killed him almost instantly….." | ||||||
| Following Denny's death, Crosbie was returned for County Kerry, but three years later, while | ||||||
| riding at night, he fell off his horse and was killed. Naturally, the superstitious local | ||||||
| populace laid the blame for Crosbie's death at the feet of Sir Barry Denny's ghost. | ||||||
| Denny's father-in-law, Crosbie Morgell, was a prominent and ambitious attorney who had | ||||||
| hoped to use his son-in-law's influence to obtain preferment. Denny's death, however, | ||||||
| crushed any such hopes. The story goes that during Denny's lifetime he had complete | ||||||
| management of his son-in-law's estates, but lost such control on Denny's death. Three weeks | ||||||
| after losing this control, Morgell committed suicide by filling his pockets with stones and | ||||||
| drowning himself. | ||||||
