Lord Chesterfield wrote "he was a most complete orator and debater, eloquent and entertaining, persuasive, strong and pathetic as occasion required; for he he had arguments, wit, and tears at his command;" but "his breast was the seat of all those passions which degrade our nature" and "avarice, the meanest of them all, generally triumphed."5
     On his death, his titles became extinct. He had two other sons.5 He has an extensive biographical entry in the Dictionary of National Biography.4
