[See ante page 5, note "a."] " It has been doubted of late whether the title of Due de ChAlctterault ever existed as a jiccrayc dignity, and it has even been argued by the Iate( a ) R. R. Stodart (in his paper on the Dukedom of Chutelherault in Her. Gen. br, pp. 97-107) that no creation of a Duchy took place, and that the object of the grant made by Henry II (5 Feb. 154S/9J to James, Earl of Arraa, and his heirs was merely to secure a yeiu-Iy revenue of 12,000 livres to the grantee. This opinion was fortified by the fact that the letters patent of Chatellcrault differ from those by which, three years later, the Constable de Mount- moreney was created Duke; Mr. Stodart concluded therefore that the title of Duke was never regularly conferred at all, and was only a title of courtesy given to Arran as Lord of the Duchy. But, (though in a later part of his paper he seems to be aware of (») Robert Riddle Stodart (b. 16 Nov. 1827) Lyon Clerk Depute, 1863, to whose uniform and unfailing kindness the Editor is deeply indebted for many an able revision of the earlier notices of the Scotch Peerages contained in this vol., died (before its completion) 19 April 1SS6. An appreciative notice of him, by one who knew him well, is in " The Uenealoyisl," vol. iii (new series), pp. 129-135.
