    Charles Manners, 4th Duke of Rutland (15 March 1754 – 24 October 1787) Rutland was made Lord Lieutenant of Ireland on 11 February 1784. He was enthusiastic for Pitt's Irish policy and the union which it entailed, but became increasingly doubtful of its implementation. In 1785, Pitt and Rutland successfully worked a trade plan through the Irish Parliament, initially against the opposition of Henry Grattan and Henry Flood. However the Foxite opposition in the British House of Commons so gutted the measure with amendments that it was rejected in its new form in Ireland. While the Irish opposition was later reconciled to Pitt's bona fides with regard to trade, the episode demoralized Thomas Orde, the Chief Secretary of Ireland, and further hindered efforts at reform. Rutland was increasingly popular as viceroy, in part because of his convivial nature and ample banquets at Dublin Castle. In summer 1787, he made an extended and rigorous tour of the midlands and north of Ireland, but his excessive consumption of claret was by now taking a toll upon his health. He died of liver disease on 24 October 1787 at the Viceregal Lodge in the Phoenix Park, Dublin. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Manners,_4th_Duke_of_Rutland - includes a portrait by Joshua Reynolds

    I think there's only one man without some sort of facial hair.

    The Lord Lieutenant in 1914 was Edmond de la Poer. I don't think it is the impressively bearded man who has a more mayoral-looking chain of office.

    Tne 'movers and shakers' of their day.
  • Bwana_Samaki said:
    The mayor in 1914 was Richard Power, the name Power is derived from Poer, keep it in the family.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Bwana_Samaki Yep, I was assuming the chain is being worn by Waterford's Lord Mayor, and that the Lord Lieutenant (thank you very much for Edmond de la Poer) might be the gentleman seated in front?
