			Sir William Isaac Macartney, 4th baronet
			Sir William appears to be have been a solitary eccentric, who lived in the Australian state of
			Queensland. The following notice of his death appeared in the 'Canberra Times' on 6 May
			1942:-
			'The death has occurred of Sir William Macartney, 75, at Mackay, and it removes a colourful
			Central Queensland identity. He was the fourth baronet of the line, but shunned the use
			of the title. He was a striking figure and the townspeople referred to him as Sir William,
			but inland he was known as plain Bill.
			'He was widely read but was eccentric. On his rare visits to Mackay he generally wore old
			clothes and carried a schoolboy's bag or a sugar bag over shoulders. He was educated at
			Rockhampton Grammar School and took up surveying, joining the laboratory staff at the old
			Habana sugar mill. He followed cane farming and was an expert on the origin of Aboriginal
			names.'
			Sir Godfrey Maculloch, 2nd baronet
			Maculloch was convicted of shooting William Gordon of Cardines in the leg, causing a wound
			from which Gordon eventually died. The Maculloch family's estates had been sold to the
			neighbouring Gordon family in 1629, but the Macullochs still claimed the lands around Cardoness
			Castle and the dispute had now become a feud. Maculloch was sentenced to death for his
			action and was executed by beheading on 26 March 1697. The following transcription of his
			speech while on the scaffold appeared as a broadside published on the day of his execution:-
			'The Last Speech of Sir GODFREY M'CULLOCH of Myretoun, Knight and Baronet, who was
			Beheaded at the Cross of Edinburgh, the Twenty Sixth day of March, 1697.
			'I Am brought here Good People to give Satisfaction to Justice, for the Slaughter of William
			Gordon designed of Cardines; And therefore I am obliged as a dying Man, to give a Faithfull and
			True Account of that matter.
			'I do declare in the Sight of GOD, I had no design against his Life, nor did I expect to see him,
			when I came where the Accident happened; I came there contrair to my Inclination, being
			pressed by these two Persons, who were the Principal Witnesses against me, (they declaring
			he was not out of Bed) that I might relieve their Goods he had poinded [impounded]; I do
			freely forgive them, and I Pray heartily GOD may forgive them, for bringing me to that place.
			'When I was in England, I was of times urged by several Persons, who declared they had
			Commission from Castle-Stewart and his Lady, (now the Pursuers for my Blood) that I might
			give up the Papers of these Lands of Cardines, wherupon they promised not only a piece of
			Money, But also to concurr for procuring me a Remission: And I have been several times since
			in the Countrie, where the Misfortune happened, and where they lived, But never troubled by
			any of them; Although now after they have got themselves secured in these Lands without
			me, they have been very active in the Pursute, untill at last they have got me brought to this
			place.
			'I do acknowledge my Sentence is Just, and does not Repine; For albeit it was only a single
			Wound in the Legg, by a shot of small Hail, which was neither intended, nor could be foreseen
			to be deadly; Yet I do believe, That GOD in his Justice hath suffered me to fall in that miserable
			Accident, for which I am now to suffer, because of my many other Great and Grievous
			unrepented for Sins; I do therefore heartily forgive my Judges, Accusers, Witnesses and all
			Others who have now, or at any time injured me, as I wish to be Foregiven.
			'I Recommend my Wife, and poor Children to the Protection of the Almighty GOD, who doth take
			Care of, and Provides for the Widow and Fatherless; And Prayes, That GOD may Stirr up and
			Enable their Friends and mine, to be Careful of them.
			'I have been Branded as being a Roman Catholick, which I altogether disown, And Declare, as
			the Words of a Dying Man, whom am instantly to make my Appearance before the Great
			Tribunal of the Great GOD, That I die in the True Catholick Reformed Protestant Religion,
			Renouncing all Righteoussness of my own, or any Others: Relying only upon the Merits of
			CHRIST JESUS, through whose Blood, I hope to be Saved, And whom I Trust, will not only be
			my Judge, But also Advocate with the Father for my Redemption.
			'Now, Dear Spectators, As my Last Request, Again and Again, I earnestly Desire, and Begg, The
			Assistance of Your Fervent Prayers, That, Although I stand here Condemned by Man, I may be
			Absolved before the Tribunal of the Great GOD, That in place of this Scaffold I may enjoy a
			Throne of Glory; That this Violent Death may bring me to a Life of Glorious Rest, Eternal in the
			Heavens: And that in place of all these Spectators, I may be Accompanyed with an Innumerable
			Company of Saints and Angels, Singing, Hallelujah to the Great KING to all Eternity.
			'Now, O LORD, Remember me with that Love Thou bearest to Thy Own, O visite me with Thy
			Salvation, that I may see the Good of Thy Chosen Ones, and may Glory in Thine Inheritance,
			LORD JESUS Purge me from all my Sins, and from this of Blood Guiltiness, Wash me in Thy Own
			Blood. Great are mine Iniquities, But Greater are the Mercies of GOD! O let me be amongst the
			number of those for whom CHRIST dyed; Be Then my Advocate with the Father Into Thy hands
			do I recommend my Spirit: Come, LORD JESUS Come, and receive my Soul, Amen.'
			Sir William Gordon MacGregor, 4th baronet [1828]
			The following is an extract from the 'Los Angeles Times' of 4 May 1903.
			'Sir William Gordon MacGregor, whose lineage fills half a page of the Peerage, but who has been
			known best lately as "the poorhouse Baronet," has had a good many queer experiences in the
			course of his chequered career, but his remarkable marriage this week must have struck him
			as about the queerest of them all. The Baronet, who is 57, lost about six months ago, a
			pension which hitherto had been his only support. Having no relatives to come to his
			assistance, he soon afterward was received, like any other aged pauper, into the West Ham
			Poorhouse. His presence there naturally attracted much attention and soon the titled 'inmate'
			was bombarded with letters from women in different sections of the country, all of whom were
			anxious to undertake his maintenance in exchange for the honor of being "Lady MacGregor."
			'One of the most enterprising of these fair ones sent her sister to conduct negotiations with
			the Baronet in his melancholy retreat. Everything went swimmingly, and soon Sir William was
			able to announce to his fellow-inmates that he was about to be married to a lady of means,
			whom he had not yet seen, but who already had arranged - through her sister - for his removal
			from the poorhouse to comfortable quarters in the fashionable part of the town, pending the
			tying of the matrimonial knot. A few days afterward came the news of the Baronet's departure
			from his uncongenial surroundings and [the] day before yesterday, that of his marriage, which
			took place in the country. But, lo and behold, the lady whom Sir William had led to the altar -
			or rather to the registrar - was not she who had come forward with the offer of marriage but
			her energetic sister, who had been entrusted with the delicate negotiations therefor.
			'At the first blush, it seemed as if Sir William's fiancée's representative must have played her
			false and cut her out of her "ladyship" by underhand means, but though the facts proved to be
			otherwise, the situation is no less piquant. It seems that, just at the last moment, the bride-
			elect was seized with certain scruples which to her mind put marriage out of the question, and
			it had just begun to look as if Sir William would have to return to his pauper state when his
			intended sister-in-law threw herself into the breach and declared that she, too, had some
			means and would marry the Baronet if he was "willin'." As he was, no time was lost.
			'The lady who is now Lady MacGregor formerly was Miss Alice Gulliver, and she is 49. Both she
			and her sister have lived for several years at Clifton in the household of a wealthy unmarried
			woman, to whom Miss Gulliver, who first sought Sir William MacGregor's hand, is companion.
			Soon after Sir William left the poorhouse, his present wife took him down to Clifton to see her
			sister and "principal" and it was there that the latter's unexplained change of heart took place
			and where the Baronet and Miss Alice Gulliver were married by the nearest registrar with such
			witnesses as could be got hold of. One of them was the woman who kept the lodgings in
			Clifton, where Sir William made his temporary quarters, another a man whom the Baronet had
			met casually the night before.
			'Sir William Gordon MacGregor is the fourth Baronet of that name, having succeeded his father
			in 1879. For many years he was an army tutor, but lived afterward on a pension which he
			derived from his younger brother, Brig.-Gen. Charles Reginald MacGregor, who formerly had
			command of all the troops in the Assam district of India. When the general died, however, Sir
			William lost his pension, and then it was that he had to apply to the West Ham Board of
			Guardians for "relief." '
			The special remainder to the baronetcy of Mackenzie created in 1836
			From the "London Gazette" of 23 February 1836 (issue 19359, page 358):-
			'His Majesty has been pleased to direct letters patent to be passed under the Great Seal of the
			United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland for granting the dignity of a Baronet of the said
			United Kingdom unto Colin Mackenzie, of Kilcoy, in the county of Ross, Esq. during the term of
			his natural life; with remainder, at his decease, to his second son, Evan Mackenzie, Esq. and
			the heirs male of his body lawfully begotten, and, in default of such issue, to his third son,
			Colin John Mackenzie, Esq. and the heirs male of his body lawfully begotten.'
			The special remainder to the baronetcy of McMahon created in 1817
			From the "London Gazette" of 16 July 1817 (issue 17269, page 1589):-
			'His Royal Highness the Prince Regent has been graciously pleased, in the name and on behalf
			of His Majesty, to grant to the Right Honourable John M'Mahon, and to the heirs male of his
			body lawfully begotten, the dignity of a Baronet of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and
			Ireland, upon his retirement from his situation in His Royal Highness's family, and in consideration
			of his long and faithful services with remainder to his brother Colonel Thomas M'Mahon, Aide de
			Camp to His Royal Highness the Prince Regent, and Adjutant-General to His Majesty's Forces
			in India, and to the heirs male of his body lawfully begotten.'
			The MacRobert baronets
			The MacRobert baronetcy was conferred in April 1922 on Alexander MacRobert, millionaire
			founder of the British India Corporation Limited. He married, as his second wife in 1911,
			Rachael Workman, daughter of a Worcester, Massachusetts doctor, William Hunter Workman
			(1847-1937), and his wife, Fanny Bullock Workman (1859-1925), both of whom achieved
			fame for their explorations in the Himalayas.
			The marriage produced three sons - Alasdair, Roderic and Iain. When their father died in
			June 1922, the oldest son, Alasdair, succeeded to the baronetcy. Sir Alasdair was killed, along
			with two other men, on 1 June 1938, when the airplane in which they were travelling crashed
			into a wheat field at Luton in England. For further information, see below.
			According to an obituary published in 'The Times' on 18 June 1938, "Sir Alasdair Workman
			MacRobert, who was chairman of the British India Corporation, the great industrial group built
			up by his father, the late Sir Alexander MacRobert, combined something of his father's
			organizing business ability and brilliant initiative with modern youth's desire and determination
			to master the art of flight. During the last three years he did a great deal of practical flying
			in his own aeroplane, in Europe, to and from India, and in that country, to obtain knowledge
			of the possibilities of civil aviation. He was a most enthusiastic student of all the technical
			side of aviation as well. As a novice he had the courage to enter in the race for the Viceroy's
			Trophy and successfully flew and navigated the complete course round India. Although he
			had a comparatively slow machine, he finished close behind the leaders. In everything he did,
			in all his plans and preparations, he was most thorough and painstaking. He was recognized
			as an exceedingly expert pilot and a fine navigator. Always perfectly calm, reliable, and quite
			fearless, yet never reckless, he believed flying could be as safe as driving a car if thorough
			plans were made and every precaution taken. He never sought to be sensational or break
			records; rather did he wish to make flying safe for the people.
			"Like his father, 50 years before, he went to India, at about the same age, and saw
			opportunity waiting and struck out in his own line. He saw the need to develop civil aviation,
			and formed the Indian Aviation Development Company in Bombay, of which he was chairman
			and managing director. He planned great things for the future, and he was on the way to
			inspect new aeroplanes for India when the accident in which he was killed occurred."
			Sir Alasdair's death was reported in the London "Telegraph" on 2 June 1938:-
			'Sir Alasdair MacRobert, of Stanstead House, Caterham, and two other men were killed when a
			monoplane, piloted by Sir Alasdair, crashed in a wheatfield near the Luton municipal aerodrome
			this afternoon.
			'Sir Alasdair's companions were Mr. Ronald E.L. Beere, of Langham House, Outwood, near Horley,
			Surrey, and Mr. C.E. Baker, of Coverswall, Alders-road, Reigate.
			'The 'plane was flown to India last September by Sir Alasdair, who was chairman of the British
			India Corporation, Cawnpore, and he travelled all over India in it on his company's business. He
			flew it back to England a few weeks ago, and he and his companions left Redhill Flying Club,
			Surrey, to-day to inspect new 'planes at the Percival works at Luton.
			'Near the airport the monoplane was seen to be flying low. It made a steep, almost vertical,
			bank, went into a nose-dive, and struck the ground.
			'Mr. John Fitzgerald, a pilot employed at the Percival Works, said: "The plane appeared to be
			in difficulties. The pilot apparently saw he was too low to clear the works. He obviously
			decided to turn and land on the wheatfield, but crashed to earth.
			"I ran to the spot and found others helping to release the dead men. The nose of the 'plane
			had ploughed deeply into the earth and had rebounded. The engine was smashed, the tail
			torn off, the wings crumpled, and the propeller bent round the remains of the engine."
			'The police roped off the wreckage, which was inspected by Air Ministry officials.
			Sir Alasdair, who was 25, was well-known in aviation and motor-racing circles. He had two
			houses in Aberdeenshire - Douneside, Tarland, and House of Cromar - and succeeded to the
			title on the death of his father, the first baronet, in 1922. The new baronet is his brother,
			Roderic Alan, aged 23.'
			As stated in the above newspaper report, the baronetcy passed to his next oldest brother, Sir
			Roderic Alan MacRobert. He served in the Royal Air Force as a Flight Lieutenant in a fighter
			squadron based in the Middle East before he was killed on active service in Iraq on 22 May
			1941 his death the baronetcy passed to his younger brother, Sir Iain Workman MacRobert. He
			possessed the title for little more than one month before he, too, died while flying in the
			Coastal Command squadron on 30 June 1941.
			Lady MacRobert had therefore lost all three of her sons within a period of just over three
			years, all three deaths having occurred during the act of flying. In August 1941, Lady
			MacRobert donated £25,000 for the purchase of Stirling bomber to be named "MacRobert's
			Reply." Later that same year, Lady MacRobert donated a further £25,000 to purchase four
			Hawker Hurricane fighters. Lady MacRobert was the subject of two articles in 'Time'
			magazine in March 1942 and on her death in September 1954.
