Delay In Issuing Medals A Friend In Need The Marquls Of Londonderry's Sneer--The Duke's Indignant Reply--Another General Order--An Indefatigable Champion A Paltry ExAction From The Soldier. Thus the matter of the Peninsular medal remained for some time, and great delay was made in the preparation of the promised insignia. Hence, when in July, 1847, the Earl of Hardwicke brought forward a motion, praying Her Majesty to grant medals for naval services, the Duke of Richmond, after complimenting the noble lord at the head of the Admiralty for his statement, said that " while recognising the claims of the navy, the claims of the army ought not to be forgotten. Why were not the men who fought in Egypt included in the order as related to the army? They received, it was true, an order from the Sultan, but not from their own Sovereign. There were other actions, also, for which the men engaged in them deserved to have some mark of distinction." In reply to Earl Grey, his Grace said, "that he felt great regret when he heard that Peninsular officers were alone to receive the medal; and he, for one, would rather not have a medal at all, than see officers who had rendered valuable services to their country in every part of the world treated with so much injustice." On the 14th of December, 1847, the Duke of Richmond rose, pursuant to notice, to ask "when it was probable that the medals intended as rewards would be given to the Peninsular officers and soldiers; and if it was intended to extend the grant of such medals to other officers, soldiers, and sailors who served in the late war. "Her Majesty had been graciously pleased to order that medals should be struck and given to those who had been engaged in particular actions during the...

Book excerpt: 'Delightful' A HISTORY BOOK OF THE YEAR / BOOK OF THE WEEK, Daily Mail 'Goodwood curator James Peill writes with a wonderfully light touch . . . The Goodwood story is extraordinary and rightly celebrated' Country Life The history of Goodwood, England's greatest sporting estate Goodwood has been the home of English sport for centuries. The story of how a small hunting lodge became the iconic location for the globally-renowned Festival of Speed, Glorious Goodwood and Goodwood Revival events is inextricably intertwined with the tale of the Dukes of Richmond. The Dukes were, variously, patrons of the arts, political influencers, royal confidantes, architectural innovators, horticultural enthusiasts and stewards of the community. Above all, they were passionate about the sports for which Goodwood is best known: horseracing, motor sports, foxhunting, cricket, shooting and golf. Drawing upon the wealth of the Goodwood archives, James Peill vividly captures the character of each Duke, some radical and others staunchly traditional, and the wide-ranging impact they had on the Goodwood of today. The broader context is a sweeping history of England, and one family's part in it. Beginning with Charles II and his mistress Louise de Keroualle, the parents of the first Duke, Glorious Goodwood takes the reader on a journey through time, from the seventeenth century to present day, via the Jacobite Rising, the Battle of Waterloo and the First and Second World Wars. There are cameo appearances from George Stubbs, Canaletto, Alexander, Emperor of Russia, Queen Victoria, Jackie Stewart and Edward VII, who famously hosted Privy Council meetings in the Tapestry Drawing Room during race week. Glorious Goodwood is a vivid and intimate portrait of a house and its inhabitants set against a dazzling, panoramic backdrop of English history. At the heart of this colourful and compelling story is a rich sense of the British heritage Goodwood embodies.
