THE LATE EARL OF WHARNCLIFFE
General regret is felt in Strathmore that the connection between the
district and the ancient family of Stuart Wortley Mackenzie has ceased.
This is intensified by the fact that the present Earl of Wharncliffe, who
was a commander in the Royal Navy, is a most worthy successor to his
uncle, the late Earl, and even although he had a very limited term of
ownership of the Scottish estates, proved himself to be a most kind and
considerate landlord, and he and his Countess were universally respected
by the tenantry.
