Excerpt from Seventy-Five Brooke Street, Vol. 2 of 3: A Story
Sir John had been carried to his resting-place with all the pomp of squirearchal show - with the gentry in carriages and the tenantry, in a reckless display of scarfs, walking behind. One or two of the old servants, who had almost a morbid delight in such pageants, professed themselves more than satisfied with what had been done. The epitaph in everyone's mouth was, that he was "the last of the old stock" - a panegyric meant to imply condemnation of his successors - those London fashionable Digbys, who had come down to take possession, and who were, of course, heirs-at-law, as no will had been found.
