    She looks more like a legal eagle up at the Kings Inns! Very good shot though.

    The quality of mercy is not strained.

    La Belle Province "... It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven, upon the place beneath. It is twice blest: it blesseth him that gives and him that takes ..."

    She has a page at thepeerage: born 1888, married Windham Baring in 1913, 3 children Robin, Mark and Patrick. Husband died in 1922, she remarried to Ralph Henry Voltelin Cavendish in 1926, and had another son Edward Simon Myles Cavendish. She lived until 1984!

    Jug-ears at the back there looks familiar. Did we have him in a different photo?
