Adeline Horsey Recollections. Belvoir Castle [Map] was another delightful place I stayed at, and I remember the [his father] fifth Duke of Rutland (age 64) drinking my health on my eighteenth birthday. His son, the Marquis of Granby (age 28), was a man of consummate tact and presence of mind. At one of the house-parties there was a pretty young married lady with whom he was greatly smitten, and having received every encouragement, he paid a visit to her room after she had retired. The lady was asleep, and just as the Marquis (age 28) was about to rouse her, the door opened, and the husband, whom he supposed to be otherwise engaged, appeared unexpectedly on the scene. It was an embarrassing moment, but the Marquis (age 28), who was equal to the occasion, held up a warning finger and exclaimed in an anxious whisper, "Hush ! don't disturb her, she is fast asleep; I was passing, and I thought I smelt fire - but all's well". The husband thanked him with honest gratitude, and doubtless felt all the happier for being under the roof of such a solicitous host.
