To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The King, although disappointed at the request, granted it, but with the express condition that his successors should never restore the title of Earl of Cromartie. There was certainly a close friendship between the families of Sutherland and Cromartie, and the Earl of Sutherland frequently visited Lord and Lady Cromartie in the Tower, and no doubt used all his influence in Lord Cromartie's favour.^ There was a general feeling that the life of one of the three condemned lords should be spared. A...s Lord Balmerino refused to plead guilty, the choice lay between the Earls of Kilmarnock and Cromartie ; and there is little doubt, notwithstanding Walpole's sneer, that the circumstances of Lord Cromartie's wife and family naturally made the decision turn in his favour. Walpole's account of the intercession of Frederick Prince of Wales is corroborated by a letter from Lord Macleod to his father, in which he says, " Lord Elibank and Mr. Murray advise me to present a memorial to the Prince of Wales asking his consent to my going into foreign service, and giving those assurances of attachment to his Royal Highness's service, which are certainly due to his so great goodness."^ The fact of the suc- cessful intercession of the Prince of Wales for sparing the life of Lord Cromartie is distinctly stated in the petition of Lord Macleod for the restoration to him of the forfeited estate of Cromartie.
